Today's Highlight in History:
On April 15, 1912, the British luxury liner RMS Titanic foundered in the North Atlantic off Newfoundland more than 2 1/2 hours after hitting an iceberg; 1,514 people died, while less than half as many survived.
On this date:
In 1850, the city of San Francisco was incorporated.
In 1865, President Abraham Lincoln died nine hours after being shot the night before by John Wilkes Booth at Ford's Theater in Washington; Andrew Johnson became the nation's 17th president.
In 1920, a paymaster and a guard were shot and killed during a robbery at a shoe company in South Braintree, Massachusetts; Italian immigrants Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti were accused of the crime, convicted and executed amid worldwide protests that they hadn't received a fair trial.
In 1945, during World War II, British and Canadian troops liberated the Nazi concentration camp Bergen-Belsen. President Franklin D. Roosevelt, who had died on April 12, was buried at the Roosevelt family home in Hyde Park, New York.
In 1959, Cuban leader Fidel Castro arrived in Washington to begin a goodwill tour of the United States. Secretary of State John Foster Dulles resigned for health reasons (he was succeeded by Christian A. Herter).
In 1960, a three-day conference to form the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) began at Shaw University in Raleigh, North Carolina. (The group's first chairman was Marion Barry.)
In 1974, members of the Symbionese Liberation Army held up a branch of the Hibernia Bank in San Francisco; a member of the group was SLA kidnap victim Patricia Hearst, who by this time was going by the name "Tania" (Hearst later said she'd been forced to participate).
In 1986, the United States launched an air raid against Libya in response to the bombing of a discotheque in Berlin on April 5; Libya said 37 people, mostly civilians, were killed.
In 1989, 96 people died in a crush of soccer fans at Hillsborough Stadium in Sheffield, England. Students in Beijing launched a series of pro-democracy protests; the demonstrations culminated in a government crackdown at Tiananmen Square.
In 1998, Pol Pot, the notorious leader of the Khmer Rouge, died at age 73, evading prosecution for the deaths of two million Cambodians.
In 2013, two bombs packed with nails and other metal shards exploded at the Boston Marathon finish line, killing two women and an 8-year-old boy and injuring more than 260. (Suspected bomber Tamerlan Tsarnaev (TAM'-ehr-luhn tsahr-NEYE'-ehv) died in a shootout with police; his brother and alleged accomplice, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev (joh-HAHR' tsahr-NEYE'-ehv), was tried, convicted and sentenced to death.)
In 2014, Boko Haram terrorists kidnapped some 276 girls from a school in northeastern Nigeria.
Ten years ago: U.S.-led coalition forces using warplanes and artillery clashed with a small band of militants holed up in a house and a cave complex in eastern Afghanistan in fighting that killed at least seven Afghan civilians.
Five years ago: The first of three days of tornadoes to strike the central and southern U.S. began; according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, there were an estimated 177 twisters and at least 38 fatalities.
One year ago: Douglas Hughes, a postal carrier from Florida, flew a one-person gyrocopter onto the West Lawn of the U.S. Capitol as a protest against money in politics; he later pleaded guilty to operating a gyrocopter without a license, a felony. Former New England Patriots star tight end Aaron Hernandez was convicted in Fall River, Massachusetts, of first-degree murder and sentenced to life in prison for a late-night shooting that claimed the life of Odin Lloyd, a 27-year-old landscaper who was dating the sister of Hernandez's fiancee.

Tim Tebow eyed for open Florida House seat, 'a shoo-in'
The surprise retirement of a key Florida congressman has Republican strategists eager to give the ball to former Florida Gators quarterback Tim Tebow, according to several sources.
"We do not pick favorites," said a key party strategist, but "obviously a huge Florida football star would be an interesting candidate for our side of the aisle."

I had a $2,589 interest payment on my student loan rejected because it's not allowed under 'married filing separate'. I have 10% of my SS going to tax withholding and found out I am in a 21% tax bracket. due April 18, $1,937.

Thank You for the clearance, now go work on the wardens bathroom like an obedient husband.Granted, the bid sites are not every day prices, but neither are the "daily deal" offers every day pricing. Can one say a particular deal is good, bad, or indifferent and exclude data from the recent past? I think not. You are now clear to GFY.They are not everyday prices as they are not available every day and 90% of the bid items sell for more than you can frequently buy them for when you add the shipping. It took me several weeks of Fuk'n around with bids to get some warheads that at a great deal saved me about $12. There are occasional steal deals for sure if you have the patience to fuk with them but of course I have heard there is always the risk of Travellin Dave or Fish Fuk'n you over.How can you not count bid deals? Those are real every day prices paid for sticks and an accurate indicator of a cigar's market value.I don't count bid deals when comparing prices.The Page has the Tat Pudgy Monsters samplers for $68.15 FS which is a little better than I have seen them before. Not a burner but on their sampler sale.My last order for these was $55 on the sis bid, $59 with amortized shipping. Amazing the price range that sampler sees.

I think Golf was happy to have a chance at Carson Wentz in the draft. After the Rams trade up, Jared Goff is probably no longer an option anyway.The Rams are out of their minds

Definitely a high risk move. Goff is a good QB. I'd say the Rams feel like he may be Aaron Rodgers good... but Rodgers went #24, so they either REALLY like him, or don't trust their talent evaluators to wait on a guy later in the draft. I know the Rams need to win now, and with the LA move, getting a California QB makes a lot of sense.

I know what you're sayin'. They could have still let the Browns pick before them and STILL got the better QB long term... no matter which it ended up being. Sorry, Golf. It's funny 'cause it's true.

Wake up Dad you got 4 minutes!Thanks for the heads up, but I don't have any room in my humidors at the moment. I raked 3 bags of leaves and gumballs, sprayed the weeds and dandelions, cut grass, took a shower, cooked supper, and did the dishes. I sat down and watched tv for an hour, and when I went to get back up, I could hardly get up because I was so tired. Now I hope I only have the energy to get up and 6 a.m. for babysitting tomorrow.... yikes..! So tomorrow it's laundry, babysitting, and TV dinners. Then I'm going to bed and I'm not getting up until Monday.
