    GERMANY NAZI'S ATTACKS CLERGY
    October 14, 1938 - Germany

    Adolf Hitler's deputy has attacked the catholic clergy during a massive Nazi rally in Austria telling the cheering crowd of 100,000 that the clergy are seeking to instigate people against the state. Hitler or Christ is not the question, Hitler has never taken a stand against the Church and there is only one Fuhrer and his name is Adolf Hitler, and the clergy should not take orders from Rome but from the Fuhrer.

    BLACK-AMERICAN PATENT
    October 14, 1834 - Maryland, U.S.A.

    Henry Blair of Glenross, Maryland, received a U.S. patent on a corn planter (No. X8447). Two years later, on 31 Aug 1836, he was also issued a patent on a cotton seed planter (No. 15). Blair was born in Maryland about 1807 and lived until 1860. He was a successful farmer whose inventions met a need to increase efficiency in farming. His patents were signed with a simple "X" because he had not learned to read or write. Henry Blair was the second African-American to hold a patent. For some time he had been regarded as the first, until it became better known that the first African-American on record to be granted a patent was Thomas Jennings for a "dry-scouring" cleaning process (3 Mar 1821, No. X3306).

    about Eyesight Myth and Fact

    Myth: Staring at a computer screen all day is harmful to the eyes. Fact: Spending the day staring at a screen can tire or strain your eyes, but it will not hurt them. Make sure lighting doesn't create a glare on your screen. When spending long periods at your keyboard, take a break now and then to rest your eyes to reduce fatigue. Also, don't forget to blink. Your eyes need to stay lubricated to feel comfortable.

ARTICLE CONTENT :

Each time you play casino games online, you could fall prey to scam artists. It does not matter whether you play American roulette, blackjack, slots, keno or any other gambling game, you should constantly be aware of the possible online scams and take all necessary preventive steps to avoid being scammed. You can have a lot of fun playing online, provided that you preclude scams from interfering with your game. By observing the following steps, you can ensure a much safer gambling experience on the Internet.

- Before you ever sign up for any gambling site, make certain you have installed the latest anti-spyware and virus protection on your personal computer. You are also suggested to choose the automatic updating and scanning feature.

- Seek reputable sites only. Steer clear of new sites or the ones you are not able to find information about. You can turn to online gamblers that you know personally or check up gambling or news websites or other sources. The best advice: if you cannot find any dependable information on an online casino site, steer clear of it.

- Do not loan money to other online gamblers that you do not know in person. There are scammers that will begin conversations with you and carry on interacting for long periods of time just to gain your confidence. You may even meet some scammers who will promise to pay you off more.

- Do not reveal personal data by email, or respond to emails sent by online gambling sites. Some online gambling scams use e-messages that are purportedly sent by reputable websites, but they are actually a scam. Any time you have to update or change your personal information, do it on the main website only.

- Do not download any software program that promises it can assist you in playing any online gambling games. Some will state that it is possible to see other gamblers' cards, or help you win. However, these types of applications are likely to be a scam.

- steer clear of sites that guarantee you will win. When it comes to gambling, it is impossible to guarantee a win, and you are likely to lose more often than win.

Stay alert! Once you find a reputable site, stick to it.
