I learned two things at drama school. First, that I couldn't act; second, that it didn't matter.

1,500 people gathered in the rain on Friday to mark the anniversary of the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor when 2,403 Americans died.
For the first time, none of the survivors of USS Arizona were able to attend: about 300 USS Arizona sailors survived the sneak attack, but only five are alive today: Lou Conter, Don Stratton, Ken Potts, Lonnie Cook and Lauren Bruner, all of whom are in the 90s and none of whom was well enough to be present.
There were about 100 WW2 vets present

A Hawaiian Airlines flight headed to Maui returned to LAX three times over unrelated issues
ETOPS stands for Extended-range Twin-engine Operational Performance Standards, a rule which permits twin engine aircraft to fly routes which, at some point, are more than 60 minutes flying time away from the nearest airport suitable for emergency landingThe plane was headed to Maui's Kahului Airport from Los Angeles International, but turned back three times, said Alex Da Silva, the airline's senior manager. Twice, the plane had already taken off.
The third time was not the charm, and Da Silva said the flight was finally canceled.
All of the turn backs were due to separate and unrelated faults with different systems, Da Silva said.
The 207 passengers on board were refunded for the flight and given $100 credit for a future flight. They are also being accommodated on other flights and will be given hotel rooms and meal vouchers.
