There are days when it all seems to be going to hell in a handbasket.

Then, thank heaven, there are days that bring hope. This is one of them.

Ad multos annos, dear sisters in the struggle!

WEST POINT, N.Y. (AP) - Cadet Chapel, the landmark Gothic church that is a center for spiritual life at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, hosted its first same-sex wedding Saturday.

Penelope Gnesin and Brenda Sue Fulton, a West Point graduate, exchanged vows in the regal church in an afternoon ceremony, attended by about 250 guests and conducted by a senior Army chaplain.
