	Guardian \| Earl of Portsmouth Mystery peer with the money

		The earl is a non-executive director of Grainger trust plc, whose principal activity is property investment and trading.

	Portsmouth Herald Local News: Shipyard floats on sub 'capacity' issue
		PORTSMOUTH - Hearings in Washington, D.C., this past week made it clear Portsmouth Naval Shipyard supporters must overcome the Navy’s contention there is more capacity to repair and refuel nuclear submarines than required.
		Donnell noted the Navy has already scheduled work for Portsmouth for many years in the future, all of which would have to be relocated to the other three shipyards if Portsmouth were closed.
		The closure plan calls for the Portsmouth workload to be distributed 45 percent to Norfolk, 45 percent to Puget and 10 percent to Pearl Harbor, a situation, Donnell said, that will create huge dry-dock scheduling problems at all three of those shipyards.

	Sandwich, historical background of its origin
		The Earl of Sandwich, the sandwich, and the town of Sandwich
		Apparently, the First Earl, Edward Montagu, originally intended to take the title of the Earl of Portsmouth—this might have been changed to honor the town of Sandwich, because the fleet he was commanding in 1660 was lying off the coast of Sandwich, before it sailed to bring Charles II back to England.
		The Earl was a member of a group of Satan Worshippers called “The Friars of St. Francis of Wycombe”, also known as “The Hell Fire Club”.

	Sandwich, a background of its origin
		The Earl’s outburst when the baboon leaped on his shoulder had revealed him as a fundamentally deeply superstitious man. In spite of his cynical manner, he had a profound belief in the forces of evil and an all-abiding terror of eternal punishment for his sins.
		Although the descendants of the sandwich may have rescued the Earl’s name from infamy, it is unlikely that he was the only one, or even the first one, to eat in this fashion.
		Since the fourth Earl’s all-night gambling session in which he would not stop to eat and ordered some meat between two pieces of bread, all of the subsequent Earls of Sandwiches have been linked with sandwiches.
