Finally, the FDR Memorial Museum opens in Warm Springs GA at the Little White House.

"Friends" is not the only factor for a move toward shallowness and an apathetic attitude of our young adults. If you are a parent please read more about how we can work together to solve the growing shallowness of our young people.

Our nation mourns the loss of a Great American President. Called the "Great Communicator" he will be remembered not only for the decisions he made as President, but for the way he reacted to results of those decisions. Taking responsibility for the actions of your subordinates is a principle of leadership.
