Lionel Messi heading to the MLS and the Miami ball club rather than take $1.2 Billion over 3 years to play in Saudi Arabia.

In return he took a share of his Adidas jersey sales (if you've watched Air recently you understand this angle), an undisclosed share of AppleTV MLS revenue, and an option to buy shares of club when he retires.

Neither is a bad choice, but what a decision to make!

Bear enters garage of Connecticut bakery, steals 60 cupcakes

May 30 (UPI) -- Workers at a Connecticut bakery had a bear scare when a hungry bruin charged into the business' garage and made off with 60 cupcakes.



Taste by Spellbound in Avon posted a video to Facebook showing the bear enter through an open garage door and drag a box containing 60 cupcakes into the parking lot, where it took a few minutes to feast on the pilfered confections.

Bakery employees said they had been in the process of loading the cupcakes into a van for a delivery when the bear made its appearance.

Bakery worker Maureen Williams said she initially tried to scare the bear away by yelling.

"It turned around, and came towards me, and he did what DEEP [Connecticut Department of Energy & Environmental Protection] calls a 'bluff charge,' where he made kind of a huffing noise, and then he came at me a little quicker," Williams told WTNH-TV. "At that point, I knew I wasn't going to shut the door. He was too close. So, I backed myself out and ran."

Williams said the bear finally fled the area when another employee pulled his car around to where the animal was snacking on cupcakes and repeatedly honked the horn.

Serbia has told its population that you have to turn in all guns and ammo over to the government by Thursday 8 June because of gun violence in the country. There is still a limited few that can be maintained, but only by approved registration. This will become an interesting case study to see how many people comply, how it affects gun violence and if the government then becomes more authoritarian due to the ban.

Serbs are primarily Russian Orthodox and there is a strong connection culturally to Russia, where few there have access to guns. There recently have been huge protests in Serbia where people protested against the recent gun violence but also expressed support for Russia and against the European Union.

I don't understand how the protestor could be arrested. Perhaps there is a local ordinance that disallows protests but, of course, I don't see how that could fly in court, then again, I'm not an attorney.

I really miss Tucker.  He was the ONE talking head on TV that was a joy to listen to.  Tucker's problem was that he told too many truths and so he had to be removed.  I haven't watched or clicked on Fox News ever since.

Rangers Lead The Way. 

Nothing else needs to be stated.

I make my girlfriend do it. It's part of the barefoot in the kitchen thing.
Actually I'm lying.  I don't keep the cleanest house in the world, but it's by far from the dirtiest too. I used to use Endust. Now it's strictly swifters . Those things are awesome.

This is part of a good series. Normally a MUCH shorter segment for each day of activity is shown defining WWII over all of the world. But this one is a 6 hour (!) session of a 24 hour coverage on 4 parts. Yep, 24 hours. All of this is just on the Normandy landing. 

No, I haven't seen all of it yet. I'll have to eat it like an elephant, one bite at a time, at a series of "meals."
