  Memorial Day had its origin as Decoration Day following the Civil War, but it only became an official federal holiday to honor those who lost their lives while serving in the armed forces of the United States in 1971.
  Memorial Day is also an occasion to associate those who died with the just causes for which the United States was willing to go to war. World War I, World War II, Korea, and Vietnam were conflicts where freedom was clearly at stake.  The post 9/11 engagements in Afghanistan, I

  LOS ANGELES — When May began, any sign of progress from Tom Koehler couldn’t come fast enough for the Dodgers. Their bullpen was a rotating cast of newcomers and holdovers, strung together by the common thread of inconsistency. Koehler, one of two pitchers acquired over the winter to bolster the relief corps, hadn’t thrown an inning since suffering a mild sprain to his anterior shoulder capsule in spring training.

  A core selling point of federalism is that it enables those ill-treated by one government body to “vote with their feet” toward less abusive jurisdictions. That is a good reason for reserving some political policy determinations to state rather than national government, or to local rather than state government.
