The C.A. six tips of the day for April 20

Region –Today is Friday, April 20, the 111th day of 2012. 

Today is the anniversary of another terrible day in American history – the Columbine High School massacre. On this day in 1999, two teenage gunmen – Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris – shot and killed 13 people and injured another 23 at their Colorado school before killing themselves.

 On a much different note, on this day in 2008, Danica Patrick became the first female winner of an IndyCar race when she won the Indy Japan 300 at Twin Ring Montegi in Montegi, Japan.

 Happy birthday today to actress Jessica Lange (1949), actor Ryan O’Neal (1941), Star Trek actor  George Takei (1937) and John Paul Stevens, a former Associate justice of the U.S. Supreme Court (1920).  

 

Here are six tips for the day -

1. Congratulations to Dr. Harvey G. Clermont of Shrewsbury who was recently named the recipient of the Grant V. Rodkey Award. Be sure to read the story to learn about a truly remarkable man and humanitarian.
