The glass ornaments on this page are made for us by the St. Vincent de Paul Society. These ornaments are made from recycled glass. The foundry uses the money raised from their sales to assist homeless and low-income people through emergency services, housing, jobs, training, and other charitable endeavors. How cool is that!
Quote of the moment: By calling attention to a well-regulated militia for the security of the Nation, and the right of each citizen to keep and bear arms, our Founding Fathers recognized the essentially civilian nature of our economy. Although it is extremely unlikely that the fears of governmental tyranny, which gave rise to the second amendment, will ever be a major danger to our Nation, the amendment still remains an important declaration of our basic military-civilian relationships, in which every citizen must be ready to participate in the defense of the country. For that reason I believe the second amendment will always be important. John F Kennedy
