Stories for 3/3

Today is March 3rd, which may be rendered "3/3".  It is also National Anthem Day, because on March 3, 1931, Congress issued a resolution making The Star Spangled Banner the American national anthem, which was then signed by President Herbert Hoover.  So if you're at an event, please be sure to stand for the anthem and place your hand over your heart if you're a civilian, or use the appropriate salute if you're in the military.  If you wish to kneel, please wait until tomorrow when you're in church.  Meanwhile, here are some things going on today:

From Deutsche Welle, "far right" protesters and counter-protesters face off in Kandel, Germany over the death of a teenage girl who was killed by her Afghan ex-boyfriend.  (In parts of Europe, you are considered "far right" if you want finite limits on immigration, or simply don't want migrants assaulting and killing your fellow Europeans.)
