Terror in Oslo

It sounds so much like one of my mother's stories of living through World War II in German-occupied Oslo, that it's hard to wrap my mind around it - a bomb going off in a government building downtown Oslo, windows blown out across a wide area - many confirmed dead and countless injured.  At the same time, a lone gunman mows down people at a Labor Party-run children's summer camp on a little island not far away.  The whole town in chaos.

I have so many friends and relatives in Norway.  My heart goes out to them at this difficult time.  I haven't been able to think of anything else all morning.
