Today is Thursday, Nov. 16, the 320th day of 2017. There are 45 days left in the year.

Today's Highlight in History:

On Nov. 16, 1907, Oklahoma became the 46th state of the union.

On this date:

In 1776, British troops captured Fort Washington in New York during the American Revolution.

In 1885, Canadian rebel leader Louis Riel was executed for high treason.

In 1917, Georges Clemenceau again became prime minister of France.

In 1933, the United States and the Soviet Union established diplomatic relations.

In 1939, mob boss Al Capone, ill with syphilis, was released from prison after serving 7 1/2 years for tax evasion and failure to file tax returns.

In 1945, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) was founded at the conclusion of a conference in London.

In 1959, the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical "The Sound of Music" opened on Broadway.

In 1960, Academy Award-winning actor Clark Gable died in Los Angeles at age 59.

In 1966, Dr. Samuel H. Sheppard was acquitted in Cleveland at his second trial of murdering his pregnant wife, Marilyn, in 1954.

In 1973, Skylab 4, carrying a crew of three astronauts, was launched from Cape Canaveral on an 84-day mission.

In 1982, an agreement was announced in the 57th day of a strike by National Football League players.

In 1997, China's most prominent pro-democracy campaigner, Wei Jingsheng (way jeeng-shuhng), arrived in the United States after being released following nearly 18 years of imprisonment in his country.

Ten years ago: Senate Republicans blocked a $50 billion bill by Democrats that would have paid for several months of combat but also would have ordered troop withdrawals from Iraq to begin within 30 days. Poland's new prime minister, Donald Tusk, formally took office along with a team of former anti-communist dissidents.

Five years ago: Former CIA Director David Petraeus told Congress that classified intelligence showed the Sept. 11, 2012 attack in Benghazi, Libya, that killed U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans was a terrorist attack, but that the Obama administration withheld the suspected role of al-Qaida affiliates to avoid tipping them off. Financially struggling Hostess Brands Inc. announced it was shutting down its operations following a strike by the union.

One year ago: U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, addressing a U.N. conference in Morocco, made a stirring appeal to all countries - including his own - to press ahead with the fight against climate change, saying a failure to do so would be a "betrayal of devastating consequences." Rick Porcello of the Boston Red Sox won the AL Cy Young Award by a narrow margin while Max Scherzer of the Washington Nationals took the NL prize. Former congressman and defense secretary Melvin Laird, 94, died in Fort Myers, Florida.

With sexual harassment in the news currently, lets take a look at how our lawmakers are setting an example...

If a congressional aide wants to file a formal complaint with the OOC, they must first engage in 30 days of counseling. After 30 days, they can choose to go into mediation with a representative of the congressional office that they are lodging a complaint against, which can last at least another 30 days. Then, the accuser must wait an additional 30 days before they can officially file a complaint and pursue a hearing either with the OOC or the Federal District Court.  Additionally, they are required to sign a non-disclosure agreement.

Should there be a settlement – and there have been many – it’s the American taxpayer that’s on the hook, with “no public disclosure and no consequences for the harasser,”  The money comes from a special U.S. Treasury fund – and the payouts are kept quiet. That means, those found to be at fault are publicly shielded and don’t have to pay a penny out of pocket for settlement costs.

The Washington Post, which first reported on the fund, found that between 1997 and 2014, $15.2 million was paid out to 235 claimants.

I would say they have themselves covered pretty well.

Granite installation day!  Plumber set up for tomorrow to connect up the new sink installation.  Mover set up for Monday morning to bring all our belongings from the warehouse here.

And the fun plan for the day is dealing with the warden trying to decide between about 12 samples  for the 3 sets of draperies (all 3 will be different as they are in different rooms with different colors). At least the decorator has helped narrow it down to a dozen choices, $ well spent!

Had a Truth...now just 'T' by AJF/Booth/Caldwell that was pretty nice. A couple of iffy spots, but attributable to OTT.  My Father Opulencia is also very tasty.    Been trying a number from SBC...they offer some nice samplers from new houses.  With that I've tried a number of cigars from MLB (due to association with JPG and EPC) and Cloud Hopper.

Granite install will run over into tomorrow, plumber won't show until Monday, and the warden will make three selections and then change two of them.

You might well be correct on the last one but I am pretty comfortable on the first two but the 2nd one is dependent on the granite installation.  Granite is fabricated and ready to go.

I actually do think the warden is pretty set on one set of drapes with only 2 to select from but the other two (bedrooms) are up in the air

So what's your take on the Tamborils?
your asking the guy that has EPC 2nds as an every day smoke? LOL.
got a bundle cheap at Cigar Page, I have had them before, to me a decent cheap smoke.
Thanks, i have pretty much the same opinion, but i've seen a 95 rating and a lot of fine words describing them and haven't had that particular experience with them myself.  i will say humi time does help them.  Last one I had was noticeably better then the one before it with about 2 months time in between.

LOL, hey, one of those "i'll try them at 50 cents apiece" sort of things.  and after the one at lunch,  i'm even re-thinking handing them out to anyone.  so, i'll probably leave them until i need the space and, as luck would have it, the Christina river is less than 50 yards away.  as good as any canal!
