Mhairi Black born in Paisley, Scotland
Black is born in Paisley, Scotland. Her father, Alan, is a retired teacher. Her first political memory is of being taken to march against the Iraq war – mainly because her aunt gave her a huge cherry lollipop called a “frying pan” that hadn’t been available in Scotland for years.
Marching was magic! But what I did notice was, with Labour it had always been, ‘Oh, they’re the good guys.’ And I remember seeing that change.

Mendel Schneerson dies at 90 years old after a long illness. He has been hospitalized at at Beth Israel Medical Center in Manhattan, since March 10 after suffering his second stroke in two years. In his last letter to one of his chassidim he writes his last words:
It follows that when a close person passes on, by the will of G‑d, those left here can no longer see him with their eyes or hear him with their ears; but the soul, in the World of Truth, can see and hear. And when he sees that the relatives are overly disturbed by his physical absence, it is saddened; and, conversely, when it sees that after the mourning period prescribed by the Torah a normal and fully productive life is resumed, it can happily rest in peace.

On Oksar Schindler: He changed from a great Gatsby to a great rescuer, and it fascinated me. He was like an agent, like a Michael Ovitz, on top of the mountain pulling strings in every fiefdom down below.
Tiffany Trump born in New York
Tiffany Trump is born in New York City.
[My fondest memory of my father] is probably the fact that my mom was a very healthy person, so my dad used to sneak me Almond Joys all the time. I don’t know if that’s a good or a bad thing, but I really enjoyed it back in the day. If I was ever craving a chocolate bar, I was like, ‘I’m going to go see Dad.’

I was like a mini-Helena Bonham Carter…For my fifth birthday party we had a Jaws theme and all my friends left crying. I mean, I still am that way. But when I was little it was more concerning.

Jurrasic Park
Spielberg directs this science fiction adventure based on a novel by Michael Chrichton.

Things go disastrously wrong when he brings in a group of experts to preview the park and there is a power outage, releasing the dinosaurs from their cages.

Here’s what was scary: We were creating the title characters of a film. These were the stars of the picture, these dinosaurs. And if that didn’t work, nothing about Jurassic Park could have worked. So that was daunting, because I was using Universal’s money to basically make an experimental dinosaur picture.
