Memorial Day quotes: We haven’t forgotten the sacrifices
'And I’m proud to be an American, where at least I know I’m free. And I won’t forget the men who died, who gave that right to me'...can you imagine what kind of deeds could inspire such feelings in a whole nation? Must be the bravest type, we are left to wonder that can we expect to be half as selfless as those who fought and died for us? They were heroes and that's the way they'll stay forever, in history and our hearts.
Memorial Day or Decoration Day as it was known before it marks the day that we remember and honor the sacrifices made by U.S. soldiers who died while in the military service and it’s observed on the last Monday of May.
The first Memorial Day was on May 30th, 1868. It was called "Decoration Day," and was created by civil war general, John Logan. Gen. John Logan wanted the day to help mend the relationship between the North and the South after the Civil War.
Gen. John Logan chose May 30th for two reasons. The first being that it was a day that no Civil war battles took place on, and second, he thought that flowers would be in bloom all over The United States.
Though the Memorial Day has been celebrated for over the past hundred years, yet it wasn’t until 1979 that it became an official federal holiday in America.

Megan shoo-ed out of Transformers, Bay doesn’t gain much
Michael Bay is making the third part of his 'Transformer' series, that’s news. But Megan Fox is not in it, that’s news too. Now what remains to be seen is whether her not being in it will affect the film's performance at the box-office in any way and oh, boy, if it does; that will be some news!
Not even her biggest critic can accuse Megan of ever acting in the sense Julia Roberts or Helen Mirren acts but her beauty and screen presence makes up a lot. In a film as lame as 'Transformers’, which is a wonder in the basic sense of why it was even made, let alone sequels, one tends to look out for other interests to pass the time. And without an iota of doubt that was a part Megan Fox was an expert in. (http://images.eonline.com/eol_images/Entire_Site/2010419//300.fox.megan.lc.051910.jpg) 'Transformer' made her one of the most googled and ogled women on earth.
From the omnipresent sources it was known that the decision of not having Megan in the cast against Shia LaBeouf was reached upon by both Bay and Megan. Good for them as it was also reported that the fall-out was the result of an ensuing tension between the two for months.
The last blowup was perfectly timed as Megan was ready to quit and Bay was ready to look for a new face, though only to parade around in skimpily clad outfits in the film.
The inside story indicates that Megan was forced to quit as she couldnt take any more of the verbally abusive Bay. This is without doubt a huge blow to Megan's career; already damaged by her inability to open Twentieth's Fox Atomic film Jennifer's Body last September. But for Bay, it doesn’t mean much as whatever becomes the fate of ‘Transformer 3’, he will still have his contract with Paramount to fall back on.
