Supreme Court limits grandparent visitation powers
The Supreme Court ruling strengthens parental control over child visitations, holding Washington state went too far in allowing grandparents to seek access. Justice O Connor states that a parent who properly cares for children normally should not have the state intervene in family matters. The decision does not grant parents absolute vetoes and leaves other states' visitation laws intact.

Butterfield Birth of Taps and its Civil War origin
In the Shenandoah Valley Butterfield earned a brigadier general’s post and restructured duty by crafting a patriotic bugle call. He adapted the French tattoo into Taps after wounding at Malvern Hill, guiding Norton to perform it on July 2, 1862. Taps became the standard for U S military funerals, resonating from Gettysburg through later campaigns.
