November 20 is.................Peanut Butter Fudge Day

This special holiday was established by the National Peanut Board and is the perfect time to indulge in this sweet treat. It is widely believed that fudge was first created in the 1800s when a batch of caramels didn’t turn out quite right. This mistake turned out to be a delicious revelation that people have been enjoying all around the world ever since.

As the popularity of this special occasion has spread, a number of different events have been created in order to celebrate Peanut Butter Fudge Day. These include a large number of bake offs, tastings and other fun food related events. However, by far the best way to celebrate Peanut Butter Fudge Day is by creating your own batch of peanut butter fudge. This year, instead of baking alone invite a group of friends to help you and use your imagination to create a unique twist to the standard recipe

Today is Sunday, Nov. 20, the 325th day of 2016. There are 41 days left in the year.

Today's Highlight in History:

On Nov. 20, 1789, New Jersey became the first state to ratify the Bill of Rights.

On this date:

In 1620, Peregrine White was born aboard the Mayflower in Massachusetts Bay; he was the first child born of English parents in present-day New England.

In 1910, the Mexican Revolution of 1910 had its beginnings under the Plan of San Luis Potosi issued by Francisco I. Madero.

In 1925, Robert F. Kennedy was born in Brookline, Massachusetts.

In 1945, 22 former Nazi officials went on trial before an international war crimes tribunal in Nuremberg, Germany. (Almost a year later, the International Military Tribune sentenced 12 of the defendants to death; seven received prison sentences ranging from 10 years to life; three were acquitted.)

In 1947, Britain's future queen, Princess Elizabeth, married Philip Mountbatten, Duke of Edinburgh, at Westminster Abbey.

In 1959, the United Nations issued its Declaration of the Rights of the Child.

In 1966, the musical play "Cabaret," set in pre-Nazi Germany, opened on Broadway with Jill Haworth as Sally Bowles and Joel Grey as the Master of Ceremonies.

In 1969, the Nixon administration announced a halt to residential use of the pesticide DDT as part of a total phaseout. A group of American Indian activists began a 19-month occupation of Alcatraz Island in San Francisco Bay.

In 1975, after nearly four decades of absolute rule, Spain's Generalissimo Francisco Franco died, two weeks before his 83rd birthday.

In 1976, the boxing drama "Rocky," a United Artists release starring Sylvester Stallone as a journeyman fighter who's given the chance to face the heavyweight champion, premiered in New York.

In 1985, the first version of Microsoft's Windows operating system, Windows 1.0, was officially released.

In 1992, fire seriously damaged Windsor Castle.

Ten years ago: After a firestorm of criticism, News Corp. said it had canceled the O.J. Simpson book and TV special "If I Did It," in which Simpson was to speak hypothetically about how he would have committed the 1994 slayings of his ex-wife Nicole and her friend, Ronald Goldman. (A federal bankruptcy judge later awarded the rights to Simpson's book to Goldman's family, who had it published under the title, "If I Did It: Confessions of the Killer.") Six imams were removed from a US Airways flight at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport after passengers reported they were acting suspiciously. (The imams, charging discrimination, later settled with the airline.) Ryan Howard of the Philadelphia Phillies was voted the National League's MVP. Movie director Robert Altman died in Los Angeles at age 81.

Five years ago: Spain's opposition conservatives were swept into power as voters dumped the Socialists - the third time in as many weeks Europe's debt crisis had claimed a government. Tony Stewart held off Carl Edwards to win his third NASCAR championship in the season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway. Landon Donovan scored in the 72nd minute on passes from Robbie Keane and David Beckham, and the Los Angeles Galaxy's three superstars won their first MLS Cup together with a 1-0 victory over the Houston Dynamo. The Americans won the Presidents Cup as a team, 19-15, in Melbourne, Australia.

One year ago: Islamic extremists shot up a luxury hotel in Mali's capital that was frequented by diplomats and businessmen, killing 20 people in an attack blamed on Islamic extremists. A week after the deadliest attacks on France in decades, shell-shocked Parisians honored the 130 victims with candles and songs. Jonathan Pollard, a former U.S. Navy intelligence analyst, was released from prison after 30 years behind bars for spying for Israel. Actor Keith Michell, remembered for his portrayals of England's King Henry VIII, died in London at age 88.

Thought for Today: "There are people in every time and every land who want to stop history in its tracks. They fear the future, mistrust the present, and invoke the security of a comfortable past which, in fact, never existed." - Robert F. Kennedy (1925-1968).

More like3-4 months ago on days when the heat index exceeded 110 degrees and I certainly think that kind of heat which is catagorized as extremely dangerous warrants some complaints.

I think he wrote this season off already with only remaining hope being maybe they will hire a good coach

There are sure to be a lot more premium coaching jobs than premium coaches available this year.  Some desperate fool will hire Les Miles and pay him a ton (I am still predicting Les to ND) and someone will take a chance on Charlie Strong and pay him a hefty sum.  Beyond those two it is all a guess.

Strong potential for new coaches at Texas, Ole Miss, LSU, Notre Dame, Arkansas and maybe A&M.  Who knows how many others.

Several nights ago, in the early morning hours, I had an epiphany. I realized that golf has much in common and is not much different than sex. REALLY? Have I lost my mind? I know that’s probably what you’re thinking. No, not really. Let me tell you why.

My first ah ha: Your libido resides in your brain while your golf clubs reside in your bag. A second insight: It’s been said by many of the great golfers that golf is played between the ears. In other words, it’s a mind game. Sex is also a mind game albeit played between the sheets. 

Every golf course presents a unique set of challenges. Similarly, one’s intimate partner creates challenges as well. While good course management may lead to a successful round of golf, understanding the anatomical and emotional challenges of your partner is a big plus in reaching our sexual objectives. Professional golfers increase their skills by hitting hundreds of balls every day. Of course, I’m not suggesting, however, we can engage in sex or intimacy at the same frequency. In golf good hands are a prerequisite. They are also a requirement for great sex. As we become more adroit at sex and intimacy we must also have a solid plan as to how to play our game. This includes realistic expectations. Understanding the complex emotional and physical terrain of our partner is critical. On the golf course or in a relationship, overcoming the challenges is the key to success in both endeavors.

Let’s address the standard equipment necessary to play golf i.e. clubs and balls. Each club is a different length, each has its’ own purpose. For example, the driver: it usually has a cover on it while the penis, if having sex with multiple partners, should have a condom on it. In golf, the saying goes, “Drive for show and putt for dough.” I know men like to think they all have the BIG kahuna! Actually, it’s their putter that gets the ball where it needs to be. In golf we usually have dozens of balls. As male sexual partners only two are necessary. 

Each golf course is different. Every golfer is challenged by wind, water, rain and sand. In continuing this comparison, sexuality and intimacy are also affected by challenges such as a partner’s age, headaches, job loss, children, and poor health and lack of desire. Familiarity with the golf course allows the players to better manage their game. This is no different than being familiar with your spouse/partner’s vulnerability in order to enjoy a more satisfying and fulfilling sexual experience. Bottom line: Golf is technical and sex is emotional.

Golf greens are designed in different sizes and shapes. To be successful you have to know how to read the greens. The same holds true for satisfying sexual intimacy. You must understand and appreciate your partner. In golf the ultimate goal is to get the ball into the hole in as few strokes possible. It’s not my intention to discuss the ins and outs of sexual intercourse in this article. Suffice to say, during the latter, more strokes would make for a better result.

Simply stated if you like golf better than sexy just envision a well groomed muff as a golf green and read the green so as not to miss the putt.

On the golf course or in a relationship, overcoming the challenges is the key to success in both endeavors.

Let’s address the standard equipment necessary to play golf i.e. clubs and balls. Each club is a different length, each has its’ own purpose. For example, the driver: it usually has a cover on it while the penis, if having sex with multiple partners, should have a condom on it. In golf, the saying goes, “Drive for show and putt for dough.” I know men like to think they all have the BIG kahuna! Actually, it’s their putter that gets the ball where it needs to be. In golf we usually have dozens of balls. As male sexual partners only two are necessary. 

Each golf course is different. Every golfer is challenged by wind, water, rain and sand. In continuing this comparison, sexuality and intimacy are also affected by challenges such as a partner’s age, headaches, job loss, children, and poor health and lack of desire. Familiarity with the golf course allows the players to better manage their game. This is no different than being familiar with your spouse/partner’s vulnerability in order to enjoy a more satisfying and fulfilling sexual experience. Bottom line: Golf is technical and sex is emotional.

Golf greens are designed in different sizes and shapes. To be successful you have to know how to read the greens. The same holds true for satisfying sexual intimacy. You must understand and appreciate your partner. In golf the ultimate goal is to get the ball into the hole in as few strokes possible. It’s not my intention to discuss the ins and outs of sexual intercourse in this article. Suffice to say, during the latter, more strokes would make for a better result.
Simply stated if you like golf better than sexy just envision a well groomed muff as a golf green and read the green so as not to miss the putt.
In golf, there is a one time fee, and you know it up front.  In a relationship, you pay and pay and pay.
Not necessarily, many play golf at clubs without per/play fees.
I just play where ever they let me get on.

Ten More People Kidnapped Near Acapulco Mexico…..

Acapulco Mexico – A group of armed men have kidnapped 10 people in the violent southwestern Mexican state of Guerrero, where 43 students were abducted and likely massacred two years ago, authorities said on Saturday.

Suspected members of a gang known as Los Tequileros took the 10, which included two minors, from the municipality of San Jeronimo on Thursday evening, said Roberto Alvarez, a spokesman for a government task force overseeing security in Guerrero.

Alvarez said the gang was created by former cohorts of drug cartels the Knights Templar and La Familia, and had been carrying out kidnappings in the state for ransom for several months.

Home to beach resort Acapulco, Guerrero has been mired in violence for years, and suffered more than 1,650 murders in the first nine months of this year, according to official data.

The kidnappings are the latest sign of how the government is struggling to beat violent crime in the troubled state after suffering one of its biggest crises over the abduction of the 43 trainee teachers in the city of Iguala in late September 2014.  (read more)

Several nights ago, in the early morning hours, I had an epiphany. I realized that golf has much in common and is not much different than sex. REALLY? Have I lost my mind? I know that’s probably what you’re thinking. No, not really. Let me tell you why.

My first ah ha: Your libido resides in your brain while your golf clubs reside in your bag. A second insight: It’s been said by many of the great golfers that golf is played between the ears. In other words, it’s a mind game. Sex is also a mind game albeit played between the sheets. 

Every golf course presents a unique set of challenges. Similarly, one’s intimate partner creates challenges as well. While good course management may lead to a successful round of golf, understanding the anatomical and emotional challenges of your partner is a big plus in reaching our sexual objectives. Professional golfers increase their skills by hitting hundreds of balls every day. Of course, I’m not suggesting, however, we can engage in sex or intimacy at the same frequency.

AUSTIN — The Charlie Strong era at Texas is about to come to an end.

The Austin American-Statesman on Sunday cited a high-ranking source saying school officials had decided to fire Strong as football coach. Multiple school sources told the San Antonio Express-News they expected an announcement on Strong's firing by Monday morning, but could not confirm that a decision had been made.
