NATIONAL APP DAY!

Did you Know: National App Day on December 11th encourages us to explore all the possibilities apps afford us. As the power of our phones increased with processing chips, internet connectivity, and touchscreens, so did the apps that became available.

 

Today in History: Germany declares war on the United States Adolf Hitler declares war on the United States, bringing America, which had been neutral, into the European conflict. He was convinced that the United States would soon beat him to the punch and declare war on Germany. The U.S. Navy was already attacking German U-boats, and Hitler despised Roosevelt for his repeated verbal attacks against his Nazi ideology. He also believed that Japan was much stronger than it was, that once it had defeated the United States, it would turn and help Germany defeat Russia. So at 3:30 p.m. (Berlin time) on December 11, the German charge d’affaires in Washington handed American Secretary of State Cordell Hull a copy of the declaration of war.
