Today is Thursday, June 20, the 171st day of 2019. There are 194 days left in the year.


Today's Highlight in History:
On June 20, 1921, U.S. Rep. Alice Mary Robertson, R-Okla., became the first woman to preside over a session of the House of Representatives.

On this date:
In 1782, Congress approved the Great Seal of the United States, featuring the emblem of the bald eagle.
In 1837, Queen Victoria acceded to the British throne following the death of her uncle, King William IV.
In 1863, West Virginia became the 35th state.
In 1893, a jury in New Bedford, Massachusetts, found Lizzie Borden not guilty of the ax murders of her father and stepmother.
In 1943, race-related rioting erupted in Detroit; federal troops were sent in two days later to quell the violence that resulted in more than 30 deaths.
In 1967, boxer Muhammad Ali was convicted in Houston of violating Selective Service laws by refusing to be drafted and was sentenced to five years in prison. (Ali's conviction was ultimately overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court).
In 1975, Steven Spielberg's shark thriller "Jaws," starring Roy Scheider, Robert Shaw and Richard Dreyfuss (not to mention a mechanical shark nicknamed "Bruce") was released by Universal Pictures.
In 1977, the first oil began flowing through the recently completed Trans-Alaska Pipeline from Prudhoe Bay to Valdez.
In 1988, the U.S. Supreme Court unanimously upheld a New York City law making it illegal for private clubs with more than 400 members to exclude women and minorities.
In 1990, South African black nationalist Nelson Mandela and his wife, Winnie, arrived in New York City for a ticker-tape parade in their honor as they began an eight-city U.S. tour.
In 1994, O.J. Simpson pleaded not guilty in Los Angeles to the killings of his ex-wife, Nicole, and her friend, Ronald Goldman. Former airman Dean Allen Mellberg went on a shooting rampage at Fairchild Air Force Base near Spokane, Washington, killing four people and wounding 22 others before being killed by a military police sharpshooter.
In 2001, Houston resident Andrea Yates drowned her five children in the family bathtub, then called police. (Yates was later convicted of murder, but had her conviction overturned; she was acquitted by reason of insanity in a retrial.)

Ten years ago: Iranian music student Neda Agha Soltan, 27, was gunned down during election protests in Tehran; her dying moments were caught on video and circulated widely on the Internet, making her name a rallying cry for the opposition and sparking international outrage.


Five years ago: The Obama administration granted an array of new benefits to same-sex couples, including those living in states where gay marriage was against the law; the new measures ranged from Social Security and veterans benefits to work leave for caring for sick spouses. Defiant before skeptical Republicans, IRS Commissioner John Koskinen refused to apologize during a hearing for lost emails that might have shed light on the tax agency's targeting of tea party and other groups before the 2010 and 2012 elections.


One year ago: President Donald Trump abruptly reversed himself and signed an executive order halting his administration's policy of separating children from their parents when they are detained illegally crossing the border; Trump had been insisting wrongly that there was no alternative to the policy because of federal law and a court decision. The Vatican announced that Cardinal Theodore McCarrick, the retired Roman Catholic archbishop of Washington, D.C., had been removed from public ministry and would face further punishment over "credible" allegations that he sexually abused a teenager more than 40 years earlier. (Pope Francis accepted McCarrick's resignation as a cardinal on July 28th.) A suspect was arrested and charged with murder in the killing of rising Florida rap star XXXTentacion

LMFAO!!

MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. (WMBF) – Two people are in custody after police say a man was held hostage inside a Myrtle Beach apartment.

At around 9:30 p.m. Monday, the victim said he returned to his Porcher Drive apartment with the one of the suspects, identified as 24-year-old Nicholas Daniel Benson, following a camping trip, according to a Myrtle Beach police report.

Shortly after the victim arrived home, Benson and the second suspect, 24-year-old Shaun Christopher Murphy, became violent and began arguing with the victim, the report states.

The victim told police the suspects started to “tear my house apart” before holding him hostage in the living room, according to the report.

Police say Murphy held a shotgun to the victim, while Benson allegedly pulled a BB gun.

According to the report, Benson made “numerous threatening remarks” to the victim before shooting him in the abdomen. Police say the victim’s injury to his abdomen was consistent with an injury caused by a BB gun.

Sheesh!

Manufactured at La Gran Fabrica Dew Estate in Esteli, Nicaragua, La Coalición is proclaimed to have met the challenge to express the consumable experience of a cigar that truly encompasses the the vision and philosophies of each entity in the union.

La Coalición has a blend that is described as:

Wrapper – Grade A Dark Connecticut (Broadleaf)
Binder – Sumatra
Filler – Nicaragua and Dominican Republic

La Coalición will be expressed in 4 vitolas and packaged in 20-count boxes with an MSRP of $10.95 – $14.95 per cigar.

Corona Gorda (5 x 46)
Gordito (5.5 x 50)
Siglo (6 x 52)
Sublime (6.5 x 54)
Prices keep going up.  Seems like the $10-12 range is going to be the norm.
Isn’t that the damn truth!
I'll continue to hunt down the best prices. Getting various boxes from different sites keeps me in the 4-6 dollar range. Picked up 3 packs of the Espinosa's on the devil for 47 shipped that's 12 good cigars
Yea, but for us new cigar whores....there is rarely a decent price on new offerings.

Looking forward to trying La Coalición!, announced at IPCPR - collaboration between Crowned Heads and Drew Estate.
How could it have been announced at IPCPR if that doesn't happen until next week?
To be officially announced. Sorry.

Would that be with EPC?  That would give him a collaboration with just a out everyone except maybe Patron.  :o
I don't have those kind of details but I'm assuming it's coming out of a DE factory.

Edit: Willie Herrera definitely had a hand in this.
Sheesh!

That's the problem with new whores - too costly.

True that. There will always be a market for new cigars and budget friendly cigars. If you want to call 100 dollars a box budget be friendly???

Most likely.  I'm guessing $350.  Better have a lot of Gurkha's in the freebie bag for that event.
