US STATE DEPT: Remarks During Women's Empowerment Breakfast
John Kerry Secretary of State
Quote: " Governments have, obviously, a critical role, but I want to just say the private sector also really needs to continue to be fully invested and engaged in this effort. Healthy Women Healthy Economies, the toolkit or the support that many of you provide to STEM, the camp – all of these things are critical. And I know that some partners are going to be announcing additional commitments in the course of this morning’s program, and I encourage all of you to consider what more you can do to support women in your companies and to share those practices with APEC."

NEWS NOTEBOOK: WE REMEMBER JFK
John F. Kennedy, the 35th President of the United States, was assassinated at 12:30 p.m. Central Standard Time (18:30 UTC) on Friday, November 22, 1963, in Dealey Plaza in Dallas, Texas.

Editorial note: I don't buy the lone gunman theory on who assassinated Kennedy on that fateful day in Dallas. There had to be more than just one gunman involved on this. So many questions that are unanswered, and evidence all points to a larger conspiracy, which the media at that time didn't do their job in conducting a independent investigation, they just went right along with what the Warren Commission came up with, which no one was buying. There was only one independent investigation in this, that was from the New Orleans district attorney Jim Garrison who came up with a possible evidences that contradicts the Warren Commission's conclusions. Which to me seems more plausible than the so called lone gunman theory.
