Flight 93 Memorial Moves Along

Five finalists -- out of more than 1,000 designs -- will be announced Friday for the memorial to United Airlines Flight 93. The plane was one of four hijacked on 9/11. It's passengers and crew apparently forced the hijackers to crash the plane in Pennsylvannia instead of its intended target, the Capitol or White House, thereby saving hundreds of lives on the ground. One of the judges, Sarah Wainio, whose sister Elizabeth died in the crash, says there's not a single bad design in the lot. (The Ledger)
