The nasdaq at one point down 582 and at the close the nasdaq is off of about 140 points. It is down maybe 702 days which is pretty intense and you can finally see the s p 500 down not even 8 or 28 points. Why the selloff, why the rally back, as for the cello question the wall street journal was reporting a jump in trading volumes and options that are linked to Technology Companies and as for the uturn major rent from the record that we had on wednesday and that mightve been overdone with that technology. Delete they come back mainly apple, it was down over 8 at the lot but in did hire a bit and it averted a threeday losing streak, other tech names, the work from home stuff, they did continue to get humbled suggesting that investors are betting on the economy reopening a little bit.

Thanks so much for joining us tonight and thanks to the u. S. Army command and general Staff College. One of our longest, one of our best, one of our favorite programming partners for yet another what i know will be a compelling presentation. These guys are money, as many of you know, and were so fortunate and privileged to be associated with them. Tonight, we welcome david mills of the command general Staff College and kayla westra of the Minnesota West Community and technical college, the coauthors of great wartime escapes and rescues. Ill start by saying they had me in grade school.

It pretty quickly became a tv staple, and all of the guys in my class at st. Josephs Elementary School in martingsburg, missouri, fell in love with it and we would play it out at recess. Each one of us would take one of the roles. Of cours
Accidental admiral . Guest what a great question at a certain level all of our lives, you can choose to steer a particular course but the sea will come, the wind will come and you will go in a different direction. It comes from a period in my career when i was a four star admiral just finishing up at us Southern Command in charge of all military activities south of the United States and i was very hopeful in going to the pacific as commander of us Pacific Command which is a senior position, robert gates, called me up and said forget about the specific we are going to send you to nato so i became the first and thus far the only admiral, supreme allied commander in nato and it was an accident that did that.

Wounded knee occurred in 1890, and the true blue saloon we will encounter today. It is the name of a particular bar at which american sailors were assaulted in the country of chile, specifically in valparaiso, chile, which is a major port along the Pacific Coast of chile.
