Keep in Mind: The Belle Terre Swim & Racquet Club is open, welcoming and taking new memberships, and if you enroll before Sept. 1, you’ll beat the price increase kicking in then. Experience the many amenities including a lap pool, wading pool, tennis/pickleball courts, sauna, and a modern wellness center–all for less than what you’d pay just for a fitness center at your typical commercial gym. Friendly staff is available to answer any questions you may have about becoming a member. Belle Terre Swim and Racquet Club is the sort of place where you can connect with fellow community members and experience the welcoming atmosphere that sets BTSRC apart. If you have any questions, feel free to call at 386-446-6717. If you would like to learn more about our club and membership options please visit online.

 

Notably: In 1911 on this day, as Europe was living its last years of delusional peace and plenty, Vincenzo Peruggia, who had previously worked at the Louvre in Paris, stole the Mona Lisa. It was the second time La Gioconda had been stolen. The first time had been Napoleon’s doing: aside from being one of the great mass killers of the century, Napoleon was also its greatest art thief.  Peruggia would have been a hero had he merely repatriated the painting. But he wanted to make a buck, and lost his chance at being a hero. He held on to it for two years and was found out when he got in touch with an art dealer to sel it. Or her. The New York Times two days after the theft reported that $5 million had been offered for her recovery. “The news,” the paper reported, “has caused such a sensation that Parisians for the time being have forgotten the rumors of war.” There had been a few slightly premature rumors. Wales at the same time was in the grip of savage anti-Semitism, with three towns requiring a military response, with fixed bayonets, to put down rioters attacking Jewish traders. The two incidents did not appear to be related.

    Clearly, Trump ain’t going as he is scared to death of Christie. Instead, he will join Tucker Carlson for the me, me, me, victim, me show. Gad, I watched him talking to Kudlow (I couldn’t stand Kudlow or Cramer) and he just babbled on and on in fifty different directions while not saying a damned thing! Not a damned thing. Wow.
