Please join me on this discussion. I want to know what you think. Do you feel public schools should be mandated to have simple Moment of Silence every 9/11? Does the schools proximity to Ground Zero matter? Should a school in the middle of our great country stop and honor and remember 9/11 the same way a New York School does? Should a Superintendent have the right to order a school to NOT have a Moment of Silence on 9/11?

I would like to know what you think. No matter your side. Please share your comments.

Daily Horoscope for December 5

Your sunny temperament has returned, dear Leo, as the Sun and Venus dance in Sagittarius and the marvellous Moon shines in your sign. Whatever the day has to offer, it should bring you some pleasure and laughter, so arrange something nice if you don't have anything planned. Your power to charm is considerable right now and it will make you a big hit with whoever gets the full force of it. But don't give someone the come-on if you don't mean it.
