1934: President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed an act making the National Guard part of the U.S. Army in the event of war or national emergency.

Ten years ago: President George W. Bush went for a bike ride and attended church in Paris, then he and his wife, Laura, traveled to London for meetings with Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, as well as Prime Minister Gordon Brown and his wife, Sarah. The NBC News program “Meet the Press” paid tribute to its host, Tim Russert, who had died two days earlier. “In the Heights” was named best musical and “August: Osage County” best play at the Tony Awards.
Five years ago: Wild celebrations broke out in Tehran and other cities as reformist-backed Hassan Rowhani capped a stunning surge to claim Iran’s presidency. Paul Soros, 87, a successful innovator in shipping, philanthropist and older brother of billionaire financier George Soros, died in New York.
One year ago: A day after a man with a rifle and a handgun wounded House Whip Steve Scalise and others at a baseball practice in Alexandria, Virginia, some far-right Republicans suggested that vitriolic rhetoric on the left could be to blame for the attack, prompting House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi to retort, “How dare they say such a thing?” Two escaped inmates sought in the killings of two guards on a Georgia prison bus were captured after being held at gunpoint by a rural Tennessee homeowner whose vehicle they were trying to steal.

Bought 4 or 5 assorted 5-ers at the 19.99 price. based on some of the pricing I've seen elsewhere, the other "over 19.99" pricing isn't out of line as well.

I have swamp land in NJ that I've been trying to sell forever. It occurred to me that it is a GREAT rental opportunity. Think of the hunting and trapping that avails itself. Plus, with over 450 acres it is a great place to hide bodies.
