11 Year-Old Gets Big Surprise on StageBy Elizabeth Behrman / Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
Damon Chiodo expected a good grade when he turned in his essay about his personal hero. But as he read his report about his older brother, Devin Tomei, to his sixth-grade English class in the Carnegie Elementary School auditorium last week, he got a big surprise. As soon as Damon finished reading his report, he turned and saw that his brother had crept up behind him on the stage. A look of shock crossed the 11-year-old’s face before he jumped into his brother’s arms. Damon Chiodo, a sixth-grader at Carnegie Elementary School, hugs his big brother, Army Specialist Devin Tomei. The two hadn't seen each other in two years because the Spc. Tomei was overseas in Germany. “I was trying so hard not to cry in front of a whole room of sixth-graders,” Army Spc. Tomei, 25, said. He and his younger brother hadn’t seen each other for more than a couple of days in the past two years, after Spc. Tomei left for basic training in March 2015 before heading to Germany to work on CH-47 Chinook helicopters. Damon and his brother occasionally Skyped and played Xbox while he was stationed overseas, with Damon trying to talk to his brother every chance he got. “He was begging me to come home most of the time, telling me about all the stuff he’s doing,” Spc. Tomei said. So when he found out that he would, in fact, be coming home for a new post in the U.S., Spc. Tomei was immediately on board with his mother’s idea to surprise his little brother at his school in the Carlynton School District. And so were the school principal and Damon’s teacher, who “fabricated” the essay assignment for the occasion. Spc. Tomei hid behind the curtain backstage for 15 minutes and listened to Damon as he read his essay. “I’m glad nobody gave it away,” he said. He leaves again at the end of the month for Fort Campbell, Ky., and hopes to visit more frequently now that he’s stationed closer to home. In the meantime, he’s visiting with family and friends and spending time with Damon. “I’ve seen him pretty much every day now,” Spc. Tomei said. “He’s always wanting to do something.” Dancing with the Ghosts

THIS DAY IN HISTORY - October 11
Jimmy Carter wins Nobel Prize 2002
On this day in 2002, former President Jimmy Carter wins the Nobel Peace Prize “for his decades of untiring effort to find peaceful solutions to international conflicts, to advance democracy and human rights, and to promote economic and social development.”
Carter, a peanut farmer from Georgia, served one term as U.S. president between 1977 and 1981. One of his key achievements as president was mediating the peace talks between Israel and Egypt in 1978. The Nobel Committee had wanted to give Carter (1924- ) the prize that year for his efforts, along with Anwar Sadat and Menachim Begin, but was prevented from doing so by a technicality–hehad not been nominated by the official deadline.
After he left office, Carter and his wife Rosalynn created the Atlanta-based Carter Center in 1982 to advance human rights and alleviate human suffering. Since 1984, they have worked with Habitat for Humanity to build homes and raise awareness of homelessness. Among his many accomplishments, Carter has helped to fight disease and improve economic growth in developing nations and has served as an observer at numerous political elections around the world.
