What's in The News Today

Inspirational Friday

Three weeks after Japan's tsunami a dog is found floating on top of a house. The female dog named Ban was recognized by her owner when she appeared in the news during her rescue.  The owner retrieved Ban from the shelter that the rescuers took her to. Ban was quite happy to reunite with her owner as she jumped up and continually wagged her tail as she licked her owner's face.
