On the night of Dec. 6, 1941, George "June" Williams slept on the deck of the USS Maryland as cool Hawaiian breezes washed over him and nearly 1,000 other crewmen. He awoke before 7 a.m. the next day, folded up his cot and took it below decks to store it.
About the same time, across Pearl Harbor at Hickam Field, Harry Guilliams finished breakfast and walked outside in the morning sun. It was Sunday, mostly an off day for Guilliams' automatic weapons battalion.

The word, in all its variations, has been uttered ad nauseam at Redskins Park this week. Embarrass. Embarrassing. Embarrassment.
No need to tell you, I'm sure, what players and coaches are talking about, not with the Philadelphia Eagles coming to town this weekend. They're talking about the last time the Eagles were at FedEx Field, Nov. 15, 2010, when Michael Vick and Co. eviscerated the Redskins on the "Monday Night Football" stage. The final score, if memory serves, was 59-28, and 35 of those Philly points came before the second quarter was 10 seconds old. It was a night of infamy like few others in Redskins history. Embarrass/embarrassing/ embarrassment only begins to cover it.

Each year since, more students among the current crop of 15-year- olds tell him the same thing, leaving him still amazed that they've never experienced the horror of watching the twin towers collapse.

Jiwani highlights the nexxus between the construction of terror and the consolidation of national identity. Among other things, she argues that Canada's national daily, The Globe and Mail, offered a symbolic and discursive universe that reinvented the Other in ways that helped to re-inscribe the nation as a peaceful haven.

NOT in my wildest imaginations could I have envisioned what life would be like 10 years after the Twin Towers collapsed in the distance from my office window.
In those brutally raw hours of fear, confusion and uncertainty that day, we at The Record focused only on the now and the immediate future.
