Today is Tuesday, Aug. 22, the 234th day of 2017. There are 131 days left in the year.
Today's Highlight in History:
On August 22, 1851, the schooner America outraced more than a dozen British vessels off the English coast to win a trophy that came to be known as the America's Cup.
On this date:
In 1485, England's King Richard III was killed in the Battle of Bosworth Field, effectively ending the War of the Roses.
In 1787, inventor John Fitch demonstrated his steamboat on the Delaware River to delegates from the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia.
In 1846, Gen. Stephen W. Kearny proclaimed all of New Mexico a territory of the United States.
In 1910, Japan annexed Korea, which remained under Japanese control until the end of World War II.
In 1922, Irish revolutionary Michael Collins was shot to death, apparently by Irish Republican Army members opposed to the Anglo-Irish Treaty that Collins had co-signed.
In 1932, the British Broadcasting Corp. conducted its first experimental television broadcast, using a 30-line mechanical system.
In 1956, President Dwight D. Eisenhower and Vice President Richard Nixon were nominated for second terms in office by the Republican National Convention in San Francisco.
In 1968, Pope Paul VI arrived in Bogota, Colombia, for the start of the first papal visit to South America.
In 1972, President Richard Nixon was nominated for a second term of office by the Republican National Convention in Miami Beach. John Wojtowicz (WAHT'-uh-witz) and Salvatore Naturile took seven employees hostage at a Chase Manhattan Bank branch in Brooklyn, New York, during a botched robbery; the siege, which ended with Wojtowicz's arrest and Naturile's killing by the FBI, inspired the 1975 movie "Dog Day Afternoon."
In 1985, 55 people died when fire broke out aboard a British Airtours charter jet on a runway at Manchester Airport in England.
In 1986, Kerr-McGee Corp. agreed to pay the estate of the late Karen Silkwood $1.38 million, settling a 10-year-old nuclear contamination lawsuit. The Rob Reiner coming-of-age film "Stand By Me" was put into wide release by Columbia Pictures.
In 1992, on the second day of the Ruby Ridge siege in Idaho, an FBI sharpshooter killed Vicki Weaver, the wife of white separatist Randy Weaver (the sharpshooter later said he was targeting the couple's friend Kevin Harris, and didn't see Vicki Weaver).

Ten years ago: President George W. Bush, addressing a Veterans of Foreign Wars conference in Kansas City, Missouri, offered a fresh endorsement of Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki (NOO'-ree ahl-MAHL'-ih-kee), calling him "a good guy, good man with a difficult job." A Black Hawk helicopter crashed in Iraq, killing all 14 U.S. soldiers. Hurricane Dean slammed into Mexico for the second time in as many days. The Texas Rangers became the first team in 110 years to score 30 runs in a game, setting an American League record in a 30-3 rout of the Baltimore Orioles in the first game of a doubleheader. (Texas won the second game, 9-7.) Poet and short story writer Grace Paley died in Thetford Hill, Vermont, at age 84.
Five years ago: Ousted Penn State president Graham Spanier and his lawyers attacked a university-backed report on the Jerry Sandusky sex abuse scandal, calling it a "blundering and indefensible indictment." (Spanier was later convicted of child endangerment for failing to report a child sexual abuse allegation against Sandusky.) Nina Bawden, 87, a British author who wrote children's classics, including the World War II story "Carrie's War," died in London.
One year ago: Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, appearing on ABC's "Jimmy Kimmel Live," pushed back against charges that she was physically unfit for the White House, saying the accusations were part of a "wacky strategy" by GOP rival Donald Trump and an "alternative reality" that was not focused on the kinds of issues that were most important to voters.

See, you're obviously one of the people who doesn't understand how free speech works. Free speech simply means the government can't make any laws prohibiting free speech. At some point, people started interpreting that as you can go around saying any damn thing you want with no consequences. Not sure how or why that happened. Probably #fakenews, somehow.

There IS no point at which it's protected speech. Again, they are only not allowed to make laws prohibiting it. There's no law that you can say anything you want, regardless of what it is, inflammatory or otherwise. That's Bill of Rights 101. You TX snowflakes are the worst.

We don't have it here, why should they get to have it over there?
We have it here, the problem is most people don't actually understand what it means.
What's there to not understand? Do I need to pay for it? No? Then it's free.
I would call getting your ass kicked for expressing an opinion paying for it.
Just because he's free to say it doesn't mean he's free from consequences of it.
Hence not free. Thank you.
Not to be too political, but you have every right to tell your HR and Travel department to GFT....you have the right to say it, doesn't mean you won't get fired.
Now you're talking about a business relationship. Even so, my HR department can't beat me up for saying it. You snowflakes want it both ways, and it just ain't so.
You are right, nobody has the right to take physical action against words said.
BLM and Antifa would beg to differ.
So would the KKK, but they all do face legal consequences, like any other person/group that takes violent action against anyone else.
But what does this have to do with cigars?
Lol, what does anything here have to do with cigars?

Thought for Today: "Works of art make rules; rules do not make works of art." - Claude Debussy, French composer (born this date in 1862, died 1918).
"...and French composers should stick to writing music". Sheesh.
Besides, do they even have free speech in France?

See, you're obviously one of the people who doesn't understand how free speech works. Free speech simply means the government can't make any laws prohibiting free speech. At some point, people started interpreting that as you can go around saying any damn thing you want with no consequences. Not sure how or why that happened. Probably #fakenews, somehow.
It happened because the SCOTUS keeps protecting the first amendment. You can say any damned thing you want. There may be consequences, but the consequences can't be for the expression itself if they come from government. Someone can be jailed for inciting to riot, but that gets a pretty narrow interpretation.
Pornography, the signs carried by members of Westboro Baptist Church, the ravings of racist and fascist organizations, caricatures of Jesus or Mohammed...all protected expression.

hopefully that mower goes in the shop today, if it can't be fixed for $500 then it goes up for sale and I'll buy a brand new on for $900. fuck it.

At what point is "any damn thing you want" not protected speech? I'm not talking about yelling fire in a crowded theater. Commies, sheesh.
There IS no point at which it's protected speech. Again, they are only not allowed to make laws prohibiting it. There's no law that you can say anything you want, regardless of what it is, inflammatory or otherwise. That's Bill of Rights 101. You TX snowflakes are the worst.
Yes, there is a point at which it's protected, even from "extra-judicial" consequences. It can be difficult and expensive to prove, but if one private citizen deprives another of his civil rights, including first amendment rights, the deprivor can be jailed.

How big is the property that you need to get a riding one? Or is that simply a necessity due to medical issues?

Good morning guys. Playing telephone tag with multiple doctors. Pulmonary Fuctiin Test this afternoon, having eye problems and now narrowed down to my RA meds, and need to find an eye doctor that takes my insurance.
trying to enjoy the sun, an AF Cuban corona and coffee.
Yeah right, blame it on the RA meds. When I was a kid, they clearly told us what would make us go blind...
I did it just enough to need glasses... :o

neighbor across the street has it. doesn't feel it'll cost anywhere near $500, but I told him thats my max. he has a brand new starter, going to remount the solenoid, check the fuel system, and put in a push button start.

my DOA mower is no longer DOA. neighbor just about has it running like new. rebuilt the starter, moved solenoid to take tension off cable lead, cleaned carburetor, just has to install ignition button, and put back together. I gave him $150 for any parts he may need and says I should get money back for parts and labor!

Holy cow, WTF has happened to the sister? Talk about some quality offerings :o, just not all quality prices :(
My thoughts exactly. MBIII price not too bad. Warped offering at full MSRP. But how did they get their hands on a decent amount of Black Honey?
Never mind, I see now. Well at least they kept the Warped theme.
