Today is Sunday, March 17, the 76th day of 2019. There are 289 days left in the year. This is St. Patrick's Day.

Today's Highlight in History:
On March 17, 1762, New York held its first St. Patrick's Day parade.

On this date:
In 1776, the Revolutionary War Siege of Boston ended as British forces evacuated the city.
In 1906, President Theodore Roosevelt first likened crusading journalists to a man with "the muckrake in his hand" in a speech to the Gridiron Club in Washington.
In 1912, the Camp Fire Girls organization was incorporated in Washington D.C., two years to the day after it was founded in Thetford, Vermont. (The group is now known as Camp Fire.)
In 1936, Pittsburgh's Great St. Patrick's Day Flood began as the Monongahela and Allegheny rivers and their tributaries, swollen by rain and melted snow, started exceeding flood stage; the high water was blamed for more than 60 deaths.
In 1958, the U.S. Navy launched the Vanguard 1 satellite.
In 1959, the Dalai Lama fled Tibet for India in the wake of a failed uprising by Tibetans against Chinese rule.
In 1968, a peaceful anti-Vietnam War protest in London was followed by a riot outside the U.S. Embassy; more than 200 people were arrested and over 80 people were reported injured.
In 1970, the United States cast its first veto in the U.N. Security Council, killing a resolution that would have condemned Britain for failing to use force to overthrow the white-ruled government of Rhodesia.
In 1973, U.S. Air Force Lt. Col. Robert L. Stirm, a freed prisoner of the Vietnam War, was joyously greeted by his family at Travis Air Force Base in California in a scene captured in a Pulitzer Prize-winning AP photograph.
In 1988, Avianca Flight 410, a Boeing 727, crashed after takeoff into a mountain in Colombia, killing all 143 people on board.
In 2006, Federal regulators reported the deaths of two women in addition to four others who had taken the abortion pill RU-486; Planned Parenthood said it would immediately stop disregarding the approved instructions for the drug's use. Fashion designer Oleg Cassini died on Long Island, New York, at age 92.
In 2013, two members of Steubenville, Ohio's celebrated high school football team were found guilty of raping a drunken 16-year-old girl and sentenced to at least a year in juvenile prison in a case that rocked the Rust Belt city of 18,000.

Ten years ago: U.S. journalists Laura Ling and Euna Lee were detained by North Korea while reporting on North Korean refugees living across the border in China. (Both were convicted of entering North Korea illegally and were sentenced to 12 years of hard labor; both were freed in August 2009 after former President Bill Clinton met with North Korean leader Kim Jong Il.) The Seattle Post-Intelligencer published its final print edition.

Five years ago: Russian President Vladimir Putin recognized Ukraine's Crimean Peninsula as an "independent and sovereign country," ignoring sanctions imposed by the United States and European countries. Fashion designer L'Wren Scott, 49, was found dead in New York, a suicide. British cinematographer Oswald Morris, who'd won an Oscar for "Fiddler on the Roof," died in Dorset, England, at age 98.

One year ago: Superstore company Fred Meyer announced that it would stop selling guns and ammunition; in the aftermath of the Florida high school shooting, the company had earlier said it would stop selling firearms to anyone under 21. Russia said it was expelling 23 British diplomats in a growing diplomatic dispute over a nerve agent attack on a former spy in Britain.

An intoxicated woman who was wearing a bikini when she was arrested last month in The Villages has hired an attorney who also handled another high-profile drunken bathing suit arrest.

Carrie Lee Head, 33, who lives in Bison Valley in Oxford, was arrested after an accident that occurred shortly before 11 p.m. Feb. 28 at Southern Trace Plaza. Head’s Honda van struck another vehicle and she admitted to the other driver she did not have insurance. She offered to provide him “services” as payment for the damage to his vehicle, according to an arrest report. She fled the scene when he called law enforcement. He said the woman driving the van appeared to be intoxicated and was wearing only a bikini. Head, still wearing the bikini, was arrested at her home on charges of hit-and-run and driving under the influence. She also was ticketed on charges of having no proof of insurance and careless driving.

A 78-year-old Villager has been sentenced in the wake of a rowdy party that left his wife unconscious on the floor choking on her own vomit.

Ralph James Rucinski, of the Village of Santo Domingo, originally faced two third degree felony charges after he repeatedly punched a Sumter County sheriff’s deputy in the chest and kicked him in the groin and shin as the deputy attempted to clear the way for EMS on Sept. 17 in the 1200 block of Barcelona Drive. EMS had been attempting to bring equipment into the kitchen to treat Rucinski’s wife, according to the original arrest report. He also swore at and threatened personnel at the scene.

Those attending the gathering in the Village of Hacienda East were not much help to law enforcement.

“I was unable to obtain any sworn written statements from any of the parties on scene due to them being heavily intoxicated,” the deputy wrote in the arrest report.

I picked up a few new ones yesterday so I'll give you my opinions in due time. I smoked a Micallef Experiencia yesterday that was very good. But then again, i was having a fun day and any cigar would have been favorable.

I also like the Intemperance.  Gran Llave connie is decent, like the My Father, Room 101 is still around (Holts), EPC Reserva and New Wave.
