The Last Post

This is the last time we meet in this class and I personally have learned a lot about the many different programs that the internet has to offer. It can be fun to talk to the other using blogs and emails, as well as how the brainstorming page can help you take notes for paper or ideas that you have to come up with. Personally I've had fun but wont be able to do anymore of this since where I live does not have anything but dial up. Have a great summer.

This Day in History.

Today in 1945. Benito Mussolini and his mistress were executed by the Italian resistance movement. Mussolini was captured while escaping the Switzerland. several high-ranking Fascist officials, and some other Fascist hanger-ons were taken to Dongo. On April 28 they were summarily executed. Many of the corpses, including those of Mussolini and Petacci, were later taken to Milan and hung up-side down in a square near Milan's Central Station. This place was chosen because it had been the site of a massacre of anti-Fascists by Fascist militia under German orders the previous year. Fifteen Fascists were exhibited in the square; this number had significance seeing as 15 anti-Fascists had been displayed in the square in 1944.
