November 10: World Immunization Day: --
An annual celebration to spread awareness about the benefits of
getting vaccinated and how it can prevent a plethora of diseases
in the long run. Failure to get immunized will only end up
generating expensive medical bills due to a disease that could
have been easily prevented with a low-tech and cost-effective
vaccine shot. Vaccines also help to eradicate a pandemic like
COVID-19 that has been infecting millions of people over the past
two years. During World Immunization Day, it is critical to
educate people about the importance of getting vaccinated. The
tradition of immunization dates back thousands of years. As early
as the 11th century, Buddhist monks in China used to drink snake
venom to attain immunity to snake bites and would also smear a
tear in their skin with the cowpox virus to get immunity to
smallpox. Edward Jenner is deemed to be the founder of
vaccinology. In 1796, he inoculated a 13 year-old-boy with
vaccinia virus (cowpox) and showed how to attain immunity to
smallpox. The first smallpox vaccine was developed in 1796.
Following this, the smallpox vaccination was widely used around
the world throughout the 18th and 19th centuries, resulting in the
universal elimination of smallpox in 1979. In 1897, another
doctor, Louis Pasteur, worked with the cholera virus and was able
to inoculate humans with the inactivated anthrax vaccine. As a
result, cholera vaccination was developed. The 20th century saw a
great increase in the field of vaccine research and development.
Numerous people were gaining immunity to diseases that were once
life-threatening. Methods for growing viruses in the laboratory
led to rapid discoveries and innovations, like the development of
the polio vaccine. Researchers also developed vaccines for other
diseases that affect children such as measles, mumps, and rubella.
Even though immunization programs have been shown to have
considerable health benefits, a wave of legal proceedings
surrounding vaccines began, resulting in a decrease in profits for
vaccine manufacturers, ultimately leading to a decline in the
number of companies producing vaccines. This anti-vaccine
sentiment and decline in vaccine manufacturing was stopped
partially due to the implementation of the National Vaccine Injury
Compensation Program in the U.S. in 1986. However, it was not able
to completely eradicate people's mentality because
anti-vaccination individuals still linger in vast numbers around
the world. On Sale @ 15% Off Discount Till Midnight PT!

November 10: National Civic Pride Day: --
A day to inspire everyone to promote the dynamic communities they
live in. Civic pride belongs to the people who are at the heart of
the city they live in. It brings communities together and
encourages everyone to feel a sense of pride by creating and
maintaining a healthy city or town. Today, we want to inspire
everyone to get involved in their community and show support by
improving the place you live and work. Why is civic pride
important? The importance of civic pride means every community
member feels a sense of pride for where they live. The people who
live in a community are the same people who help their hometowns
become better places to live. Businesses, schools, public service
agencies, and community members all contribute to the efforts of
making their community thrive. These contribution efforts are
called civic pride. How can I support civic pride? Supporting
civic pride is easy to do. In fact, most people participate in
civic pride and don't realize it. Participating in civic pride is
essential for any community member. It builds trust between
members in the community and in office, keeps dialog open about
key issues, and creates better relationships between all
residents. Civic pride enables citizens to influence local laws
and policies that effect their community; helps promote and learn
local values of businesses and residents; supports economic
growth; and encourages people who are overlooked or underheard to
become a part of solutions and ideas. Engagement or participating
in civic pride is when any member or groups of members engage in
public concerns, issues, or activities. When community members
work together to protect the public interests and improve the
standard of living within their community, the values of civic
pride are taking place. Addressing and promoting concerns and
ideas increases the quality of life for every member of a
community. Support for civic pride is needed in every city and
town to encourage fair democracy. The importance of having
representation for all demographic backgrounds is essential.
Oftentimes, minority groups feel underrepresented in communities
because many are unaware of the benefits of civil engagement. Good
civic engagement encourages everyone in their community to become
a part of civic pride. It also means providing opportunities in
neighborhoods to engage in civic pride. Many towns and cities
across the world have their own symbol of civic pride. Normally,
the symbolism is in the form of a landmark, such as a statue,
monument or special marker. In fact, you can find most of these
items in the middle of the town, such as a center or town square.
The United States has amazing places to visit and explore. You can
find the real meaning behind civic pride when you realize how
communities work together to provide visitors an unforgettable
experience. On Sale @ 15% Off Discount Till Midnight PT!

The Age Of Enlightenment (The Enlightenment, The Age Of Reason):
The Age Of Revolution: The Atlantic Revolutions: The American
Enlightenment: The American Revolution: The American Revolutionary
War: The United States Marine Corps Birthday: -- #BOTD: #HBD! The
annual United States Marine Corps Birthday celebrates the founding
of the United States Marine Corps with the traditional United
States Marine Corps Birthday Ball and cake-cutting ceremony, in
observance of the founding of the U.S. Marine Corps. The United
States Marine Corps is #born when the Second Continental Congress
commissioned by its own decree the innkeeper and former Quaker
Samuel Nicholas to raise two battalions of Continental Marines at
Nicholas' Tun Tavern, a colonial inn in Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania. Samuel Nicholas (1744 - August 27, 1790) was the
first officer commissioned in the United States Continental
Marines, and by tradition is considered to be the first Commandant
of the Marine Corps. The tavern's manager, Robert Mullan, was the
"chief Marine Recruiter", and marks the Tun Tavern as
the location where the United States Marines held their first
recruitment drive. The decree ordered "That two battalions of
Marines be raised consisting of one Colonel, two
lieutenant-colonels, two majors and other officers, as usual in
other regiments; that they consist of an equal number of privates
as with other battalions, that particular care be taken that no
persons be appointed to offices, or enlisted into said battalions,
but such as are good seamen, or so acquainted with maritime
affairs as to be able to serve for and during the present war with
Great Britain and the Colonies; unless dismissed by Congress; that
they be distinguished by the names of the First and Second
Battalions of Marines." The first Continental Marine company
was composed of one hundred Rhode Islanders commanded by Captain
Nicholas. The earliest Marines were deployed aboard Continental
Congress Navy vessels as sharpshooters because they were typically
recruited as outstanding marksmen. Originally part of the United
States Navy, the United States Marine Corps became a separate unit
on July 11, 1789. Prior to 1921, Marines celebrated the recreation
of the Corps on July 11 with little pomp or pageantry. On October
21, 1921, Major Edwin North McClellan, in charge of the Corps's
fledgling historical section, sent a memorandum to Commandant John
A. Lejeune, suggesting the Marines' original birthday of November
10 be declared a Marine Corps holiday to be celebrated throughout
the Corps. Lejeune so ordered in Marine Corps Order 47, which read
in part "The following will be read to the command on the
10th of November, 1921, and hereafter on the 10th of November of
every year. Should the order not be received by the 10th of
November, 1921, it will be read upon receipt. On November 10,
1775, a Corps of Marines was created by a resolution of
Continental Congress. Since that date many thousand men have borne
the name "Marine". In memory of them it is fitting that
we who are Marines should commemorate the birthday of our corps by
calling to mind the glories of its long and illustrious history."
The first formal United States Marine Corps Birthday Ball was
celebrated in 1925, though no records exist that indicate the
proceedings of that event. Birthday celebrations would take varied
forms, most included dances, though some accounts include mock
battles, musical performances, pageants, and sporting events. The
celebrations were formalized and standardized by Commandant Lemuel
C. Shepherd, Jr. in 1952, outlining the cake cutting ceremony,
which would enter the Marine Drill Manual in 1956. By tradition,
the first slice of cake is given to the oldest Marine present, who
in turn hands it off to the youngest Marine present, symbolizing
the old and experienced Marines passing their knowledge to the new
generation of Marines. The celebration also includes a reading of
Marine Corps Order 47, republished every year, as well as a
message from the current Commandant, and often includes a banquet
and dancing if possible. In many cases, the birthday celebration
will also include a pageant of current and historical Marine Corps
uniforms, as a reminder of the history of the Corps. Another
modern tradition includes a unit run on the 10th. Marines are
reputed to celebrate the birthday, regardless of where they may be
in the world, even in austere environments or combat. In a more
somber tradition, Samuel Nicholas's grave in the Arch Street
Friends Meeting graveyard in Philadelphia is marked with a wreath
at dawn by a group of Marines annually on November 10 to celebrate
his role in the founding of the Corps. Tun Tavern was a tavern and
brewery in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, which was a founding or
early meeting place for a number of notable groups. It is
traditionally regarded as the site where what became the United
States Marine Corps held its first recruitment drive during the
American Revolution. It is also regarded as one of the
"birthplaces of Masonic teachings in America". Although
tradition places the U.S. Marine Corps' first recruiting post at
Tun Tavern, the historian Edwin Simmons surmises that it was more
likely the Conestoga Waggon [sic], a tavern owned by the Nicholas
family. Each year on November 10, U.S. Marines worldwide toast the
memory of the Tun Taven as the officially-acknowledged birthplace
of their service branch. In homage to the likely 1775 Tun Tavern
menu, the U.S. Marine Corps National Museum located in Quantico,
Virginia, contains a Tun Tavern-themed restaurant, whose lunch
menu features beer and other fermented (alcoholic) beverages,
peanut soup and bread pudding, the non-alcoholic recipe of which
remains a traditional staple among some U.S. Marine food services
to this day. The tavern was erected in 1686 at the intersection of
King (later called Water) Street and Tun Alley by settler Joshua
Carpenter, brother of Samuel Carpenter, a Quaker merchant who made
a fortune trading in Barbados. Joshua Carpenter built the Tun on
the caraway that led to Carpenter's Wharf. Tun Tavern was named
for the Old English word "tun", meaning a barrel or keg
of beer. In the 1740s, a restaurant appellation, "Peggy
Mullan's Red Hot Beef Steak Club" was added to the name of
the tavern. Tun Tavern hosted the first meetings of a number of
organizations. In 1720, the first meetings of the St. George's
Society (a charitable organization founded to assist needy
Englishmen arriving in the new colony - predecessor of today's
Sons of the Society of St. George) were held there. In 1732, the
tavern hosted the first meetings of St. John's Lodge No. 1 of the
Grand Lodge Of Pennsylvania Masonic Temple. The Masonic Temple of
Philadelphia recognizes Tun Tavern as the birthplace of Masonic
teachings in America. In 1747, Tun Tavern became the founding
place of the St. Andrew's Society, which like the St. George's
Society, helped newly arrived Scottish. Tun Tavern was a
significant meeting place for other groups and individuals. In
1756, Benjamin Franklin used the inn as a recruitment gathering
point for the Pennsylvania militia as it prepared to fight Native
American uprisings. The tavern later hosted a meeting of George
Washington, Thomas Jefferson and the Continental Congress. In
October 1775 a seven man Naval Committee including John Adams
appointed by Congress crafted articles of war to build America's
first naval fleet. In 1781, near the end of the American
Revolution, Tun Tavern burned down. Its former structure stood at
a location now occupied by Interstate 95, where it passes Penn's
Landing. Tun Alley once existed between Walnut and Chestnut
Streets east of Front Street. A commemorative marker on the east
side of Front Street indicates the site, across from Sansom Walk.
It is listed on Google Maps as located at 125-171 S Front St,

November 10: Sesame Street Day: November
10, 1969: Aesthetics: Performing Arts: Finales: American
Television Finales: -- #BOTD: #HBD! National Educational
Television (NET, the predecessor to the Public Broadcasting
Service) in the United States debuts Sesame Street, an American
educational children's television series that combines live
action, sketch comedy, animation and puppetry. It is produced by
Sesame Workshop (known as the Children's Television Workshop (CTW)
until June 2000) and was created by Joan Ganz Cooney and Lloyd
Morrisett. The program is known for its images communicated
through the use of Jim Henson's Muppets, and includes short films,
with humor and cultural references. The series premiered on
November 10, 1969, to positive reviews, some controversy, and high
viewership; it has aired on the U.S.'s national public television
provider PBS since its debut, with its first run moving to premium
channel HBO on January 16, 2016. The format of Sesame Street
consists of a combination of commercial television production
elements and techniques which have evolved to reflect the changes
in American culture and the audience's viewing habits. With the
creation of Sesame Street, producers and writers of a children's
television show used, for the first time, educational goals and a
curriculum to shape its content. It was also the first time a
show's educational effects were formally studied. The show,
therefore, has undergone significant changes in its history as
adjustments to the format and content have been made to reflect
change sources to the curriculum. Shortly after creating Sesame
Street, its producers developed what came to be called the "CTW
model" (after the production company's previous name), a
system of television show planning, production, and evaluation
based on collaborations between producers, writers, educators, and
researchers. The show was initially funded by government and
private foundations but has become somewhat self-supporting due to
revenues from licensing arrangements, international sales, and
other media. By 2006, there were independently produced versions,
or "co-productions", of Sesame Street broadcast in
twenty countries. In 2001, there were over 120 million viewers of
various international versions of Sesame Street, and by the show's
40th anniversary in 2009, it was broadcast in more than 140
countries. Sesame Street was by then the fifteenth-highest-rated
children's television show in the United States. A 1996 survey
found that 95% of all American preschoolers had watched the show
by the time they were three years old. In 2018, it was estimated
that 86 million Americans had watched the series as children. As
of 2022, it has won 222 Emmy Awards and 11 Grammy Awards, more
than any other children's show. Sesame Street remains one of the
longest-running shows in the world. On Sale @ 15% Off Discount

November 10, 1697: #BOTD: #HBD! William
Hogarth FRSA, English painter, illustrator, critic, printmaker,
pictorial satirist, social critic, and editorial cartoonist, by
far the most significant English artist of his generation (d.
October 26, 1764) is #born at Bartholomew Close in London. His
work ranged from realistic portraiture to comic strip-like series
of pictures called "modern moral subjects", perhaps best
known being his moral series A Harlot's Progress, A Rake's
Progress and Marriage A-la-Mode. Knowledge of his work is so
pervasive that satirical political illustrations in this style are
often referred to as "Hogarthian". Hogarth's works are
mostly satirical caricatures, sometimes bawdily sexual, mostly of
the first rank of realistic portraiture. They became widely
popular and mass-produced via prints in his lifetime. On October
25, 1764, Hogarth was conveyed from his villa in Chiswick to his
home in Leicester Fields, in weak condition. He had been in a
weakened state for a while by this time, but was said to be in a
cheerful mood and was even still working -- with some help; doing
more retouches on The Bench on this same day. On October 26, he
received a letter from Benjamin Franklin and wrote up a rough
draft in reply before going to bed that evening, he had boasted
about eating a pound of beefsteaks for dinner, and reportedly
looked more robust than he had in a while at this time. However,
when he went to bed, he suddenly began vomiting; something that
caused him to ring his bell so forcefully that it broke. Hogarth
died around two hours later, in the arms of his servant, Mrs Mary
Lewis. John Nichols claimed that he died of an aneurysm, which he
said took place in the "chest." Horace Walpole claimed
that he died of "a dropsy of his breast." Mrs Lewis, who
stayed on with Jane Hogarth in Leicester Fields, was the only
non-familial person acknowledged financially in Hogarth's will and
was left 100PS (approximately 15,236.79PS in 2024 for her
"faithful services." Hogarth is buried at St. Nicholas
Church, Chiswick, now in the west of London. His friend, actor
David Garrick, composed the following inscription for his
tombstone: ========= Farewell great Painter of Mankind | Who
reach'd the noblest point of Art | Whose pictur'd Morals charm the
Mind | And through the Eye correct the Heart. | If Genius fire
thee, Reader, stay, | If Nature touch thee, drop a Tear: | If
neither move thee, turn away, | For Hogarth's honour'd dust lies

November 10, 1925: #BOTD: #HBD! Richard
Burton, Welsh actor and singer (d. August 5, 1984) was #born
Richard Walter Jenkins Jr. in Pontrhydyfen, South Wales. The son
of a coal miner, he came to be regarded as one of the greatest
acting talents of his day, noted for his mellifluous baritone
voice, although he never received an Oscar and was never knighted.
He led a tempestuous personal life, highlighted by twice marrying
actress Elizabeth Taylor. He died at age 58 of a cerebral
hemorrhage. Burton established himself as a formidable
Shakespearean actor in the 1950s, and he gave a memorable
performance of Hamlet in 1964. He was called "the natural
successor to Olivier" by critic and dramaturge Kenneth Tynan.
An alcoholic, Burton's failure to live up to those expectations
disappointed critics and colleagues and fueled his legend as a
great thespian wastrel. Burton was nominated for an Academy Award
seven times, but never won. He was a recipient of BAFTAs, Golden
Globes, and Tony Awards for Best Actor. In the mid-1960s, Burton
ascended into the ranks of the top box office stars, and by the
late 1960s was one of the highest-paid actors in the world,
receiving fees of 1M USD or more plus a share of the gross
receipts. Burton remains closely associated in the public
consciousness with his second wife, actress Elizabeth Taylor. The
couple's turbulent relationship was rarely out of the news. For
his contributions to cinema, Burton has a star on the Hollywood
Walk of Fame. For his contributions to theater, Burton was
inducted into the Theater Hall of Fame. Richard Burton died at age
58 from a brain hemorrhage at his home in Celigny, Geneva,
Switzerland, where he was later buried. Although his death was
sudden, his health had been declining for several years, and he
suffered from constant and severe neck pain, a symptom associated
with intracerebral hemorrhage, also known as cerebral bleed. As
early as March 1970, he had been warned that his liver was
enlarged, and he was diagnosed with cirrhosis of the liver and
kidney disease in April 1981. In a tribute to his Welsh roots,
Burton was buried in a red suit and with a copy of Dylan Thomas'
poems. He and Elizabeth Taylor had discussed being buried
together; his widow Sally Hay Burton purchased the plot next to
Burton's and erected a large headstone across both, presumably to
prevent Taylor from being buried there. On Sale @ 15% Off Discount

The Message To The Grass Roots Speech: -- Malcolm X delivers a
speech at the Northern Negro Grass Roots Leadership Conference at
King Solomon Baptist Church in Detroit, Michigan he entitled
"Message To The Grass Roots", a speech which was highly
influential in the further development of American black
nationalist theory and practice. Malcolm X described the
difference between the "Black revolution" and the "Negro

the "field Negro" during slavery and in the modern age,
and he criticized the 1963 March On Washington. Malcom X
prescribed the Bandung Conference's achievements as a model upon

twenty-nine nations met at Bandung, Indonesia, for the first
Asian-African Conference, also known as the Afro-Asian Conference.
It was a meeting of Asian and African states, most of which were
newly independent, which took place on April 18-24, 1955. The
countries that participated at the Bandung Conference represented
nearly one-quarter of the Earth's land surface and a total
population of 1.5 billion people, roughly 54% of the Earth's
population at the time. The conference was organized by Indonesia,
Burma, Pakistan, Ceylon (Sri Lanka), and India and was coordinated
by Ruslan Abdulgani, secretary general of the Indonesian Ministry
of Foreign Affairs. The conference's stated aims were to promote
Afro-Asian economic and cultural cooperation and to oppose

November 10, 1975: Maritime Incidents:
The Sinking Of The SS Edmund Fitzgerald: -- The 729-foot-long
American Great Lakes freighter SS Edmund Fitzgerald, the largest
ship on North America's Great Lakes, sinks during a storm on Lake
Superior, killing all 29 crew on board. She was located in deep
water on November 14 by a U.S. Navy aircraft detecting magnetic
anomalies, and found soon afterwards to be in two large pieces.
She remains the largest ship to have sunk in the Great Lakes.
Carrying a full cargo of ore pellets with Captain Ernest M.
McSorley in command, she embarked on her ill-fated voyage from
Superior, Wisconsin, near Duluth, on the afternoon of November 9,
1975. En route to a steel mill near Detroit, Edmund Fitzgerald
joined a second taconite freighter, SS Arthur M. Anderson. By the
next day, the two ships were caught in a severe storm on Lake
Superior, with near-hurricane-force winds and waves up to 35 feet
(11 m) high. Shortly after 7:10 p.m., Edmund Fitzgerald suddenly
sank in Canadian (Ontario) waters 530 feet (88 fathoms; 160 m)
deep, about 17 miles (15 nautical miles; 27 kilometers) from
Whitefish Bay near the twin cities of Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan,
and Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario-a distance Edmund Fitzgerald could
have covered in just over an hour at her top speed. Edmund
Fitzgerald previously reported being in significant difficulty to
the saltwater vessel Avafors: "I have a bad list, lost both
radars. And am taking heavy seas over the deck. One of the worst
seas I've ever been in." However, no distress signals were
sent before she sank; Captain McSorley's last (7:10 p.m.) message
to Arthur M. Anderson was, "We are holding our own." Her
crew of 29 perished, and no bodies were recovered. The exact cause
of the sinking remains unknown, though many books, studies, and
expeditions have examined it. Edmund Fitzgerald may have been
swamped, suffered structural failure or topside damage, grounded
on a shoal, or suffered from a combination of these. The disaster
is one of the best known in the history of Great Lakes shipping.
SS Edmund Fitzgerald was launched on June 7, 1958. For 17 years,
Edmund Fitzgerald carried taconite (a variety of iron ore) from
mines near Duluth, Minnesota, to iron works in Detroit, Michigan;
Toledo, Ohio; and other Great Lakes ports. As a workhorse, she set
seasonal haul records six times, often breaking her own record.
Captain Peter Pulcer was known for piping music day or night over
the ship's intercom while passing through the St. Clair and
Detroit rivers (between Lake Huron and Lake Erie), and
entertaining spectators at the Soo Locks (between Lakes Superior
and Huron) with a running commentary about the ship. Her size,
record-breaking performance, and "DJ captain" endeared
Edmund Fitzgerald to boat watchers. Canadian singer Gordon
Lightfoot made it the subject of his 1976 hit song "The Wreck
of the Edmund Fitzgerald" after reading an article, "The
Cruelest Month", in the November 24, 1975, issue of Newsweek.
The sinking led to changes in Great Lakes shipping regulations and
practices that included mandatory survival suits, depth finders,
positioning systems, increased freeboard, and more frequent
inspection of vessels. On Sale @ 15% Off Discount Till Midnight

Bill Gates, then chief software architect and co-founder of

Microsoft Windows, a family of graphical operating systems for
personal computers developed by Microsoft. It was first released
to manufacturing in the United States on November 20, 1985, while
the European version was released as Windows 1.02 in May 1986. Its
development began after the Microsoft co-founder and spearhead of
Windows 1.0, Bill Gates, saw a demonstration of a similar software
suite, Visi On, at COMDEX in 1982. The operating environment was
showcased to the public in November 1983, although it ended up
being released two years later. Windows 1.0 runs on MS-DOS, as a
16-bit shell program known as MS-DOS Executive, and it provides an
environment which can run graphical programs designed for Windows,
as well as existing MS-DOS software. It introduced multitasking
and the use of the mouse, and various built-in programs such as
Calculator, Paint, and Notepad. The operating environment does not
allow its windows to overlap, and instead, the windows are tiled.
Windows 1.0 also contains four releases, which contain minor
updates to the system. The system received lukewarm reviews;
critics raised concerns about not fulfilling expectations, its
compatibility with very little software, and its performance
issues, while it has also received positive responses to
Microsoft's early presentations and support from a number of
hardware- and software-makers. Its last release was 1.04, and it
was succeeded by Windows 2.0, which was released in December 1987.
Microsoft ended its support for Windows 1.0 on December 31, 2001,
making it the longest-supported out of all versions of Windows. On

November 10, 1997: #DOTD: #RIP: Tommy
Tedesco, American guitarist and studio musician in Los Angeles and
Hollywood, described by Guitar Player magazine as the most
recorded guitarist in history for having played on thousands of
recordings and many top 20 hits, leading part of the loose
collective of the area's leading session musicians later popularly
known as The Wrecking Crew, who played on thousands of studio
recordings in the 1960s and 1970s, including several hundred Top
40 hits (d. July 3, 1997) #dies of lung cancer at the age of 67,
in Northridge, California. He is buried at Oakwood Memorial Park
cemetery in Chatsworth, Los Angeles, California. His son, Denny
Tedesco (related to Damon Tedesco and Suzie Greene Tedesco,
directed the 2008 documentary film The Wrecking Crew, which
features interviews with Tommy and many of his fellow session
musicians. The film finally saw theatrical release in 2015, after
musical rights were cleared. Before that it had been screened only
at film festivals, where clearance rights were not required. Tommy
Tedesco was born Thomas Joseph Tedesco in Niagara Falls, New York.
Tedesco's playing credits include the theme from television's
Bonanza, The Twilight Zone, Vic Mizzy's theme from Green Acres,
M*A*S*H, Batman, and Elvis Presley's '68 Comeback Special. Tedesco
was shown on-camera in a number of game and comedy shows, and
played ex-con guitarist Tommy Marinucci, a member of Happy Kyne's
Mirth-Makers, in the talk-show spoof Fernwood 2 Night. Tedesco
moved to the West Coast where he became one of the
most-sought-after studio musicians between the 1960s and 1980s.
Although he was primarily a guitar player, he also played
mandolin, ukulele, sitar and over twenty other stringed
instruments. He recorded with most of the top musicians working in
the Los Angeles area including the Beach Boys, the Mamas & the
Papas, the Everly Brothers, the Association, Barbra Streisand, Jan
and Dean, the 5th Dimension, Elvis Presley, Sam Cooke, Ella
Fitzgerald, Frank Zappa, Ricky Nelson, Cher, and Nancy and Frank
Sinatra as well as on Richard Harris's classic "MacArthur
Park". His playing can be found on Jack Nitzsche's "The
Lonely Surfer", on Wayne Newton's version of "Danke
Schoen", B. Bumble and the Stingers's "Nut Rocker",
the Rip Chords' "Hey Little Cobra", the Ronettes' "Be
My Baby", the Sandpipers' "Guantanamera", the
T-Bones' "No Matter What Shape'" and Nino Tempo &
April Stevens' version of "Deep Purple". For Guitar
Player, Tedesco wrote a regular column called "Studio Log"
in which he would describe a day's work recording a movie, TV show
or album, the special challenges each job posed and how he solved
them, what instruments he used, and how much money he made on the
job. Tedesco also performed on film soundtracks such as The French
Connection, The Godfather, Jaws, The Deer Hunter, Field of Dreams,
Gloria plus several Elvis Presley films. He was also the guitarist
for the Original Roxy cast of The Rocky Horror Show. Additionally,
he performed the opening guitar solo for the Howard Hawks and John
Wayne film Rio Lobo. He was one of the very few sidemen credited
for work on animated cartoons for The Ant and the Aardvark
cartoons (1968-1971). As a solo artist, Tedesco recorded a number
of jazz guitar albums, but his musical career ended in 1992 when
he suffered a stroke that resulted in partial paralysis. The
following year he published his autobiography, Confessions of a
Guitar Player.

November 10: National Vanilla Cupcake
Day: -- Some people think that "vanilla" is synonymous
with "boring," but today is dedicated to dispelling that
myth! The very first cupcakes date back to the late 18th century
and took their name from the small ramekins or cups in which they
were baked. We've come a long way since then - now, cupcakes are
miniature, edible works of art that are almost too pretty to eat
-- almost! Diehard chocoholics, do what you will today; the rest
of us will be trying not to get vanilla frosting on our noses!
What could be more delightful than the enjoyment of a tiny little,
personally-sized vanilla cake decorated with delicious frosting?!
Cupcakes are a clever and functional way to enjoy the tastiness of
cake-without even needing a fork! And the gold standard of the
cupcake is vanilla, which can be used as a blank canvas to provide
all kinds of fun flavors and designs, from the simple to the
extravagant. Since most of these recipes were developed in home
kitchens, it is a bit difficult to trace them back to one original
inventor. Usually, people would find an idea that worked, share it
with a friend or neighbor, and they would pass it on elsewhere. So
no one really knows from which specific woman's kitchen the first
cupcake originated. However, cupcakes can officially be traced
back to 1796 when a recipe notation for a cake to be baked in
small cups was written in American Cookery (by Amelia Simmons).
This idea was in contrast to what was the most popular way to bake
a cake at the time: in layers. It's likely that they were baked
into little teacups at first. The benefit of baking them in small
cups was that they were great for a cook in a hurry as they would
bake quite a bit faster. Plus, they could be served individually,
without the need for cutting them into smaller servings with a
knife. But it may have taken a few years for these miniature
treats to actually get dubbed with their rightful name. In fact,
the earliest known documentation of the term "cupcake"
came more than 30 years later in 1828 in Seventy-five Receipts for
Pastry, Cakes, and Sweetmeats in Eliza Leslie's Receipts cookbook.
Sometime around 1919, the first-ever commercially available
cupcakes made an appearance in the form of the Hostess 'Cupcake'.
Of course, cupcakes have been a standard at children's parties and
afternoon teas over the last many years. But a resurgence of the
venerable cupcake certainly came along in the early 2000s. In
fact, the world's first Cupcake-only bakery, Sprinkles, in Beverly
Hills, California, USA, was opened in 2005. The idea went crazy
and cupcake bakery started popping up all over American towns, and
then later in cities all over the world. And while these bakers
have been creative, and it's certainly possible to get a cupcake
in almost any flavor under the sun, this is a day about bringing
everything back to the basics, tried-and-true flavor of the
vanilla cupcake.

10, 1951: With the rollout of the North American Numbering Plan
(NANP), direct-dial coast-to-coast telephone service begins in the
United States. The NANP divides territories into Numbering Plan
Areas (NPAs), more commonly called area codes, which are encoded
numerically with a three-digit telephone number prefix. Each
telephone is assigned a seven-digit telephone number unique only
within its respective numbering plan area. The telephone number
consists of a three-digit central office (or exchange) code and a
four-digit station number. The combination of an area code and the
telephone number serves as a destination routing address in the
Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN). The system of area codes
is important as it helps people to connect telephonically with
people living outside their states or cities easily and quickly.
It ensures that people can receive important information and news,
especially in emergencies. Area codes are a useful location finder
for homes, businesses, and even government organizations,
especially those that use landlines instead of mobile phones.
Although they are used less now, due to cellular and smart
communication devices, area codes are still used and will be for
the foreseeable future.

Today, November 10, 2025November 10: International Accounting
Day: -- Does the sight of a ledger book make your head spin?
That's why we have accountants to figure it all out. Your job,
school, bank, religious institution, and government wouldn't
survive without those dedicated number crunchers. That's why we
have a day out of the year "earmarked" just to celebrate
them! The history of accounting as an established practice dates
back several millennia. Records and documents originating from the
Mesopotamian region traced back as far as 5,000 B.C. reveal the
employment of accounting systems in the service of tracking the
exchange of goods between temples. Further evidence of the
prevalence of accounting would appear from discoveries in ancient
Egypt and Babylonia, but the most comprehensive findings would
first originate from materials belonging to the period of the
Roman empire. Information notated across innumerable archives
during this era show detailed quantifications kept across areas,
spanning public revenues, private expenditures, the distribution
of commodities, and more. The field of accounting has undeniably
developed significantly since its introduction in pre-modern
times. It would experience especially robust advancements
throughout the Middle Ages and the Renaissance period;
International Accounting Day is celebrated on the anniversary of
the publication of a critical work in the 15th century by an
Italian mathematician. The discipline would go on to see a sharp
rise in necessity and demand in the fields of business and finance
starting in the mid-19th century. The Industrial Revolution would
prove to increase the number and size of companies across the
world to an unprecedented degree, and it became imperative for
corporations to maintain strong accounting departments to have a
part in all aspects of business' operations. Now, it is one of the
highest paying business majors, with its scope ranging from small
businesses to international corporations. Today, there is an
indisputably great number of people working in the profession all
over the world - the Bureau of Labor reported in 2018 that there
were nearly 1.5 million accountants and auditors working in the
United States alone!

Day For Peace And Development): -- Celebrates how science promotes
global peace and development. The many inventions and discoveries
of scientists have helped to promote, amongst others, economic
development, poverty reduction, literacy, and better nutrition for
millions of people around the world. The purpose of celebrating
this day is to remember the achievements of science in achieving
global peace and to continue investment in scientific education
and research. World Science Day embraces the positive impact that
science has brought to society. The main purpose of celebrating
this day is to understand the role of science and technology in
society. In 1999, UNESCO and the International Council for Science
organized the first World Conference on Science. The event took
place in Hungary, and several delegations mutually agreed on the
need for educating society about science. It was unanimously
decided that a special day or week should be dedicated to science.
The participants of the conference aimed to promote scientific
literacy and developed an action plan. This plan was named Science
Agenda - Framework for Action. One year later, UNESCO's Executive
Body approved Science Day for Peace and Development. In 2001,
steps were taken to create a deep connection between Science and
society. Regular updates were given to people about the latest
developments in science and technology. Similarly, scientists came
forward to make people understand the environmental challenges
being faced by our planet and how to live more sustainably. In
2002, the first World Science Day for Peace and Development was
celebrated worldwide. Various non-government organizations
(NGO's), governmental organizations, research centers, educational
institutes including schools, colleges, and universities came
together to celebrate this day under the guidance and support of
UNESCO.

the whimsical flowers, today is a day to ensure that we really
won't forget. The holiday pays tribute to returning soldiers who
have lost blood and limbs - things that truly can't be forgotten -
in the line of battle. Forget Me Not Day has been around since
World War I, although it's often lost in the hustle and bustle of
preparing for Thanksgiving. Forget-me-nots are the tiny blue
meadow flowers that are incredibly symbolic. From the loss of
loved ones to simply missing a childhood friend, the flowers have
become synonymous with feelings of missing and longing. In New
Zealand, Forget Me Not Day is dedicated to those afflicted with,
or who have lost loved ones due to the cognitive degenerative
Alzheimer's disease. And while there are some versions of Forget
Me Not Day that celebrate this sort of loss or reconnecting with
long-lost loved ones, this Forget Me Not day, we focus on
something different, but also important. Forget Me Not Day as we
know it was established following World War I, when Judge Robert
S. Marx, himself a WWI veteran, declared the holiday in honor of
veterans who had suffered physical losses in the line of battle -
those who had lost limbs, blood, and other integral body parts.
Along with the holiday, Marx inaugurated the tradition of selling
the popular forget-me-not flowers, repurposing them to raise money
for wounded veterans. Whatever reason you choose to recognize
Forget Me Not Day, don't forget the pretty blue flowers! Your
contributions in buying those will surely go to one of a laundry
list of good causes that receive support from flower sales each
year.

He and architect Horace W. Peaslee designed the memorial. Their
proposal was presented to Congress, but funding was not possible

raise funds for the memorial. The memorial was turned over to the
National Park Service in 1955.

Today, November 10, 2025November 10, 1483: #BOTD: Martin Luther,
German monk, priest, theologian, professor, composer, leader of
the Protestant Reformation (d. February 18, 1546) is #born in
Eisleben, County of Mansfeld, SaxonyHoly Roman Empire. Luther was
ordained to the priesthood in 1507. He came to reject several
teachings and practices of the Roman Catholic Church; in
particular, he disputed the view on indulgences. In 1517, Luther
tacked his 95 Theses on the door of Wittenberg's castle church
asserting the Bible should be the sole authority of the church,
and calling for reformation of the Roman Catholic Church. Luther
proposed an academic discussion of the practice and efficacy of
indulgences in his Ninety-five Theses of 1517. His refusal to
renounce all of his writings at the demand of Pope Leo X in 1520
and the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V at the Diet Of Worms in 1521
resulted in his excommunication by the pope and condemnation as an
outlaw by the Holy Roman Emperor. Luther taught that salvation
and, consequently, eternal life are not earned by good deeds but
are received only as the free gift of God's grace through the
believer's faith in Jesus Christ as redeemer from sin. His
theology challenged the authority and office of the Pope by
teaching that the Bible is the only source of divinely revealed
knowledge, and opposed sacerdotalism by considering all baptized
Christians to be a holy priesthood. Those who identify with these,
and all of Luther's wider teachings, are called Lutherans, though
Luther insisted on Christian or Evangelical (German: evangelisch)
as the only acceptable names for individuals who professed Christ.
His translation of the Bible into the German vernacular (instead
of Latin) made it more accessible to the laity, an event that had
a tremendous impact on both the church and German culture. It
fostered the development of a standard version of the German
language, added several principles to the art of translation, and
influenced the writing of an English translation, the Tyndale
Bible. His hymns influenced the development of singing in
Protestant churches. His marriage to Katharina Von Bora, a former
nun, set a model for the practice of clerical marriage, allowing
Protestant clergy to marry. In two of his later works, Luther
expressed antagonistic views towards Jews. His anti-Jewish
rhetoric contributed significantly to the development of
antisemitism in Germany, and in the 1930s and 1940s provided an
ideal underpinning for the Nazis' attacks on Jews. His rhetoric
was not directed at Jews alone, but also towards Roman Catholics,
Anabaptists, and nontrinitarian Christians. An apoplectic stroke
deprived him of his speech, and he died shortly afterwards at 2:45
a.m, aged 62, in Eisleben, the city of his birth. He is buried in
the Schlosskirche in Wittenberg, Saxony-Anhalt, Germany, in front
of the pulpit. He died with Pope Leo X's excommunication still
effective.

Trumball, American soldier and painter (b. June 6, 1756) #dies in
New York City at the age of 87. Trumbull was originally interred
(along with his wife) beneath the Art Gallery at Yale University,
which he had designed. In 1867, the collection of his works was
moved to the newly built Street Hall. His wife and his remains
were reinterred on those grounds. The Trumbull Gallery was later
razed. John Trumbull was born in Lebanon, Connecticut. He was a
Revolutionary War veteran and an American artist of the early
independence period, notable for his historical paintings of the
American Revolutionary War. He has been called "The Painter
of the Revolution". Trumbull's Declaration Of Independence
(1817), one of his four paintings which hang in the United States
Capitol Rotunda, was used on the reverse of the commemorative
bicentennial two-dollar bill. Trumbull later encountered hard
times during which he was failing to sell his paintings
individually. In 1831, he sold a series of 28 paintings and 60
miniature portraits to Yale University for an annuity of 1K USD.
After many years of trying to create income from his paintings, he
had finally found a way to sustain himself from his art. Trumbull
was appointed president of the American Academy of the Fine Arts
in New York City, serving from 1816 to 1836.[20] Emphasizing
classical traditions, Trumbull did not get along with the
students. At the same time, his painting skills declined. In 1825,
many of the students withdrew, founding the National Academy of
Design. Unable to accommodate to changing tastes, the American
Academy later closed in 1839 after a second fire destroyed its
collections. Trumbull wrote his autobiography, which he published
in 1841.

the 20th century (b. May 19, 1881) #dies at Dolmabahce Palace in
Istanbul, Turkey at the age of 57. He was succeeded as president
by his long-time prime minister Ismet Inonu. His state funeral was
held in the capital city of Ankara on November 21, 1938 and was
attended by dignitaries from seventeen nations. A delegation from
The League Of Nations was also present at the funeral procession.
The cortege with Ataturk's flag-covered casket on a horse-drawn
caisson processed to the Ethnography Museum of Ankara escorted
also by nine armed detachments from foreign nations, among them
British, Iranian and Yugoslavian guards of honor. His body
remained at the Ethnography Museum of Ankara until November 10,
1953, the fifteenth anniversary of his death, when his remains
were carried to his final resting place at Anitkabir mausoleum
complex. In 1981, the centennial of Ataturk's birth, his memory
was honoured by the United Nations and UNESCO, which declared it
The Ataturk Year in the World and adopted the Resolution on the
Ataturk Centennial, describing him as "the leader of the
first struggle given against colonialism and imperialism" and
a "remarkable promoter of the sense of understanding between
peoples and durable peace between the nations of the world and
that he worked all his life for the development of harmony and
cooperation between peoples without distinction". Ataturk was
also credited for his peace in the world-oriented foreign policy
and friendship with neighboring countries such as Iran,
Yugoslavia, Iraq, and Greece, as well as the creation of the
Balkan Pact that resisted the expansionist aggressions of Fascist
Italy and the Tsarist Bulgaria. Mustafa Kemal Ataturk was born Ali
Riza Oglu Mustafa in Salonica, Salonica Vilayet, Ottoman Empire.
His second name Kemal (meaning "perfection" or
"maturity" in Arabic) was given to him by his
mathematics teacher, Captain Uskuplu Mustafa Efendi. According to
Afet Inan, his teacher gave this name " in admiration of
[Ataturk's] capability and maturity"; according to other
sources, his teacher wanted to distinguish Ataturk from another
student who was also named Mustafa. Ataturk undertook sweeping
progressive reforms, which modernized Turkey into a secular,
industrializing nation. Ideologically a secularist and
nationalist, his policies and socio-political theories became
known as Kemalism. Ataturk came to prominence for his role in
securing the Ottoman Turkish victory at the Battle of Gallipoli
(1915) during World War I. Following the defeat and dissolution of
the Ottoman Empire, he led the Turkish National Movement, which
resisted mainland Turkey's partition among the victorious Allied
powers. Establishing a provisional government in the present-day
Turkish capital Ankara (known in English at the time as Angora),
he defeated the forces sent by the Allies, thus emerging
victorious from what was later referred to as the Turkish War Of
Independence. He subsequently proceeded to abolish the decrepit
Ottoman Empire and proclaimed the foundation of the Turkish
Republic in its place. As the president of the newly formed
Turkish Republic, Ataturk initiated a rigorous program of
political, economic, and cultural reforms with the ultimate aim of
building a modern, progressive and secular nation-state. He made
primary education free and compulsory, opening thousands of new
schools all over the country. He also introduced the Latin-based
Turkish alphabet, replacing the old Ottoman Turkish alphabet.
Turkish women received equal civil and political rights during
Ataturk's presidency. In particular, women were given voting
rights in local elections by Act no. 1580 on April 3, 1930 and a
few years later, in 1934, full universal suffrage. His government
carried out a policy of Turkification, trying to create a
homogeneous, unified and above all secular nation under the
Turkish banner. Under Ataturk, the minorities in Turkey were asked
to speak Turkish in public, but were allowed to maintain their own
languages in private; non-Turkish toponyms were replaced and
minorities were ordered to get a Turkish surname. The Turkish
Parliament granted him the surname Ataturk in 1934, which means
"Father Of The Turks", in recognition of the role he
played in building the modern Turkish Republic.

December 23, 1972) is #born Andrei Nikolayevich Tupolev in
Pustomazovo, a village near the city of Kimry in Tver Governorate,
Russian Empire. Tupolev was a protege of Nikolay Zhukovsky, often
called the Father of Russian Aviation, founding father of modern
aero- and hydrodynamics and the first to undertake the study of
airflow at a time when his contemporaries scoffed at the idea of
human flight. Tupolev designed or oversaw the design of more than
100 types of civilian and military aircraft in the Soviet Union
over 50 years, some of which set 78 world records. Tupolev
produced many notable designs such as the Tu-2, Tu-16, Tu-95, and

Today, November 10, 2025November 10, 1982: #DOTD: Leonid
Brezhnev, Ukrainian-Russian general and politician, Soviet
politician, 4th Head of State of the Soviet Union who led the
Soviet Union from 1964 to 1982 as the General Secretary of the
Central Committee (CC) of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union
(CPSU), presiding over the country until his death (b. December
19, 1906) #dies of a heart attack in Zarechye in the Odintsovsky
District of Moscow Oblast, Russian SFSR, Soviet Union. He was
honored with a state funeral after a five-day period of nationwide
mourning. He was buried in the Kremlin Wall Necropolis in Red
Square, in one of the twelve individual tombs located between the
Lenin Mausoleum and the Kremlin wall. National and international
statesmen from around the globe attended his funeral. His wife and
family were also present. Brezhnev was dressed for burial in his
Marshal's uniform along with his medals. His eighteen-year term as
General Secretary was second only to that of Joseph Stalin in
duration. During Brezhnev's rule, the global influence of the
Soviet Union grew dramatically, in part because of the expansion
of the Soviet military during this time. His tenure as leader was
marked by the beginning of an era of economic and social
stagnation in the Soviet Union. Brezhnev was #born in Kamenskoye
(now Kamianske, Ukraine) into a Russian worker's family in 1906.
After graduating from the Dniprodzerzhynsk Metallurgical
Technicum, he became a metallurgical engineer in the iron and
steel industry, in Ukraine. With the onset of World War II, he was
drafted into immediate military service and left the army in 1946
with the rank of major general. In 1952, Brezhnev was promoted to
the Central Committee and, in 1964, succeeded Nikita Khrushchev as
First Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. As the
leader of the Soviet Union, Brezhnev's conservatism and
carefulness to reach decisions by consensus with the rest of the
Politburo resulted in sustained political stability within the
country. However, his hostility towards reform and active
cultivation of cronyism ushered in a period of pervasive
corruption and socioeconomic decline that came to be known as the
Brezhnev Stagnation. Such internal problems were further
compounded by an enormous arms buildup that eventually grew to
comprise 12.5% of the nation's GNP. On the world stage, Brezhnev
pushed hard for the adoption of detente, a commitment by both two
superpowers towards the relaxation of Cold War tensions and
economic cooperation. Despite such diplomatic gestures, Brezhnev's
regime presided over an aggressive foreign policy characterized by
the 1968 invasion of Czechoslovakia, massive military support for
Communist forces in Vietnam, and the 1979 armed intervention in
Afghanistan. Ultimately, in December 1981, he opted not to have
the Soviet military suppress unrest in Poland thereby marking the
end of the interventionist Brezhnev Doctrine. After years of
declining health, Brezhnev died on 10 November 1982 and was
quickly succeeded in his post as General Secretary by Yuri
Andropov. Andropov only held the office of General Secretary for
less than two years until his 1984 death. Brezhnev had fostered a
cult of personality, although not nearly to the same degree as
Stalin. Mikhail Gorbachev, who would lead the USSR from 1985 to
1991, denounced his legacy and drove the process of liberalisation
of the Soviet Union.

Lord Sutch, also known as 3rd Earl of Harrow, English singer and
activist (d. June 16, 1999) is #born David Edward Sutch at New End
Hospital in Hampstead, North London, England. He was the founder
of the Official Monster Raving Loony Party and served as its
leader from 1983 to 1999, during which time he stood in numerous
parliamentary elections. He holds the record for losing more than
40 elections in which he stood from 1963 to 1997. As a singer he
variously worked with Keith Moon, Jeff Beck, Jimmy Page, Ritchie
Blackmore, Charlie Watts, John Bonham, Kent Henry, Noel Redding
and Nicky Hopkins, a group known collectively as Lord Sutch and
Heavy Friends. He was the inspiration for the character Screaming
Lord Byron in David Bowie's music video Blue Jean. Sutch's album
Lord Sutch and Heavy Friends was named in a 1998 BBC poll as the
worst album of all time, a status it also held in Colin Larkin's
book The Top 1000 Albums of All Time, despite the fact that 1)
Jimmy Page, John Bonham, Jeff Beck, Noel Redding and Nicky Hopkins
performed on it and helped write it, and 2) since the music was a
put-on, its charm lies in it's being perfectly, beautifully and
charmingly awful. Screaming Lord Sutch had a history of
depression, and after his mother had died, he went into a severe
depression, and killed himself by hanging at his late mother's
house some six weeks later. At the inquest, his fiancee Yvonne
Elwood said he had manic depression, now known as bipolar
disorder. Sutch is buried beside his mother in Pinner New Cemetery
(Section J2, Grave 27), Middlesex. He is survived by a son,
Tristan Lord Gwynne Sutch, born in 1975 to American model Thann
Rendessy. In 1991 his autobiography, Life as Sutch: The Official
Autobiography of a Raving Loony (written with Peter Chippindale),
was published. In 2005 Graham Sharpe, who had known him since the
late 1960s, wrote the first biography, The Man Who Was Screaming
Lord Sutch.

founding member of the progressive rock bands King Crimson and
Emerson, Lake amp; Palmer (ELP) (d. December 7, 2016) is #born
Gregory Stuart Lake in Poole, Dorset, England where he was brought
up. Lake began to play the guitar at the age of 12 and wrote his
first song, "Lucky Man", at the same age. He became a
full-time musician at 17, playing in several rock bands until his
friend and fellow Dorset guitarist Robert Fripp invited him to
join King Crimson as lead singer and bassist. They found
commercial success with their influential debut album, In the
Court of the Crimson King (1969). Lake left the band in 1970 and
achieved significant success in the 1970s and beyond as the
singer, guitarist, bassist, and producer of ELP. As a member of
ELP, Lake wrote and recorded several popular songs including
"Lucky Man" and "From the Beginning". Both
songs entered the UK and US singles charts. Lake launched a solo
career, beginning with his 1975 single "I Believe in Father
Christmas" which reached number two in the UK (bested only by
Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody"). He went on to release
three solo albums with his Greg Lake Band and guitarist Gary
Moore, recorded 1981 through 1983 (two studio albums, one live
album). He was also briefly but notably a member of pop rock band
Asia in 1983, replacing vocalist/bassist John Wetton (another
former member of King Crimson) for three concerts in Tokyo, Japan.
As well as collaborating and performing with other artists and
with various groups in the 1980s, he had occasional ELP reunions
in the 1990s and in 2010, and toured regularly as a solo artist
into the 21st century. Lake also sponsored other artists,
producing their recordings and helping them to get recording
contracts. He also was a fundraiser for the National Center for
Missing amp; Exploited Children. He died in London, of pancreatic
cancer, at the age of 69. His manager described Lake's battle with
the illness as "long and stubborn". Numerous fellow
musicians paid tribute, including Rick Wakeman and Steve Hackett,
Ringo Starr, John Wetton, Opeth's Mikael Akerfeldt, Ian Anderson
and ELP drummer Carl Palmer. Lake's death occurred nine months
after the death of ELP keyboardist Keith Emerson. He is buried at
Putney Vale Cemetery and Crematorium in Putney Vale, London
Borough Of Wandsworth, Greater London, England.

French poet who is known for his influence on modern and Romantic
literature and arts which prefigured surrealism, French soldier
(b. October 20, 1854) #dies of bone cancer at the Hopital de la
Conception in Marseille, France at the age of 37. His remains were
sent across France to his home town of Charleville-Mezieres where
he is buried. Arthur Rimbaud was born Jean Nicolas Arthur Rimbaud
in the provincial town of Charleville (now part of
Charleville-Mezieres) in the Ardennes department in northeastern
France. Rimbaud started writing at a very young age and was a
prodigious student, but abandoned his formal education in his
teenage years to run away from home amidst the Franco-Prussian
War. During his late adolescence and early adulthood he began the
bulk of his literary output, but completely stopped writing at the
age of 21, after assembling one of his major works, Illuminations.
Rimbaud was known to have been a libertine and for being a
restless soul, having engaged in an at times violent romantic
relationship with fellow poet Paul Verlaine, which lasted nearly
two years. After the end of his literary career, he traveled
extensively on three continents as a merchant before his death
from cancer just after his thirty-seventh birthday. As a poet,
Rimbaud is well known for his contributions to Symbolism and,
among other works, A Season in Hell, which was a significant
precursor to modernist literature.

Disputed]): The Wilmington Insurrection Of 1898 (The Wilmington
Massacre Of 1898, The Wilmington Coup Of 1898): -- A coup d'etat
and massacre of black people carried out by white supremacists in
Wilmington, North Carolina begins on a Thursday, the only instance
of a municipal government being overthrown in United States
history. The white press in Wilmington originally described the
event as a race riot caused by black people. Since the late 20th
century and further study, the event has been characterized as a
violent overthrow of a duly elected government by a group of white
supremacists. It is the only such incident in the history of the
United States. Multiple causes brought it about. The coup was the
result of a group of the state's white Southern Democrats
conspiring and leading a mob of 2,000 white men to overthrow the
legitimately elected local Fusionist biracial government in
Wilmington. They expelled opposition black and white political
leaders from the city, destroyed the property and businesses of
black citizens built up since the American Civil War, including
the only black newspaper in the city, and killed an estimated 60
to more than 300 people. The Wilmington coup is considered a
turning point in post-Reconstruction North Carolina politics. It
was part of an era of more severe racial segregation and effective
disenfranchisement of African Americans throughout the South,
which had been underway since the passage of a new constitution in
Mississippi in 1890 which raised barriers to the registration of
black voters. Other states soon passed similar laws. Historian
Laura Edwards writes, "What happened in Wilmington became an
affirmation of white supremacy not just in that one city, but in
the South and in the nation as a whole", as it affirmed that
invoking "whiteness" eclipsed the legal citizenship,
individual rights, and equal protection under the law that black
Americans were guaranteed under the Fourteenth Amendment.

Adams, infamous American astrologer based in New York City, dubbed
"America's first astrological superstar", who ran a
thriving astrological consulting business, gained widespread
notability for successfully defending her astrological pactice in
court, and produced a number of popular books ghostwritten by
Aleister Crowley, including Astrology: Your Place in the Sun
(1927), Astrology: Your Place Among the Stars (1930), and her
autobiography, The Bowl of Heaven (1926), contributor to Aleister
Crowley's own astrological text The General Practice of Astrology"
(b. February 8, 1868) #dies of undisclosed causes aged 64 in
Manhattan, New York City. Her Death Certificate has her last name
as Jordan, the family name of her husband was George Edwin Jordan,
Jr. She was buried in Woodlawn Cemetery in Bronx, New York City.
Her remains were removed from Woodlawn in July, 1958 and taken to
North Plainsfield Cemetery, CT. Before she died, she predicted
that the United States would be at war between 1940 and 1944.
Adams was born Evangeline Smith Adams in Jersey City, New Jersey,
to a conservative family. Her father died when she was 15 months
old. Before Adams began working as an astrologer full-time, she
became engaged to a Mr. Lord, who was believed to be her employer.
Although she said that she was initially in love with him, she
lost any feelings that she had for him and subsequently broke the
engagement. Thousands of subscribers to her astrological
newsletter followed her advice to invest in stocks during the
run-up to the Stock Market Crash of 1929. It was towards the end
of her career that Adams took to publishing books and raising her
profile within popular media. For most of her working life, she
ran a thriving astrological practice based on consultation by
person or mail. This grew to employ several assistants and
stenographers. For a number of years Adams employed Crowley as a
ghost-writer. Their business relationship eventually turned into
an acrimonious one, which brought copyright issues of "who
really wrote what", with regards to Crowley's General
Principles of Astrology (now settled with the book being
attributed to Crowley but with a recognized contribution by
Adams). Adams was arrested three times in New York City for
fortune telling, in 1911, 1914 and 1923. Although practicing
astrology was not legal at that time, all the cases brought
against her were unsuccessful and the May 1914 trial brought
particular notability due to the judge's acquittal "of all
wrong doing" and praise of her skill, after she gave him an
astrology reading describing the character of his son from his
birth data. Adams was well paid by her clients for her
predictions. She was reputed to successfully predict changes in
the stock market. Nevertheless, Adams had no knowledge of
economics and her predictions were always vague, foretelling
disaster but not specific disasters, predicting that the market
would go up when in fact the country was in a period of remarkable
growth in the stock market. Adams' most infamous failed prediction
was that the "stocks might climb to heaven" a few weeks
before the 1929 crash. While her few successful predictions were
publicized, her misses were largely ignored by those desperate to
believe. https://store.earthstation1.com/wastcrof19do.html

Today, November 10, 2025November 10, 1994: #DOTD: #RIP: Carmen
McRae, singer-songwriter, pianist, and actress, considered one of
the most influential jazz vocalists of the 20th century,
remembered for her behind-the-beat phrasing and ironic
interpretation of lyrics (b. April 8, 1920) #dies at her home in
Beverly Hills, California, at the age of 74. She had fallen into a
semi-coma four days earlier, a month after being hospitalized for
a stroke. She was cremated, and her ashes were scattered at sea.
Carmen McRae was born Carmen Mercedes McRae in Harlem, New York
City. Her father, Osmond, and mother, Evadne (Gayle) McRae, were
immigrants from Jamaica. She began studying piano when she was
eight, and the music of jazz greats such as Louis Armstrong and
Duke Ellington filled her home. When she was 17 years old, she met
singer Billie Holiday. As a teenager McRae came to the attention
of Teddy Wilson and his wife, the composer Irene Kitchings. One of
McRae's early songs, "Dream of Life", was, through their
influence, recorded in 1939 by Wilson's long-time collaborator
Billie Holiday. McRae considered Holiday to be her primary
influence. In her late teens and early twenties, McRae played
piano at Minton's Playhouse, sang as a chorus girl, and worked as
a secretary. It was at Minton's where she met trumpeter Dizzy
Gillespie, bassist Oscar Pettiford, and drummer Kenny Clarke, had
her first important job as a pianist with Benny Carter's big band
(1944), worked with Count Basie (1944) and under the name "Carmen
Clarke" (having married Clarke) made her first recording as
pianist with the Mercer Ellington Band (1946-47). But it was while
working in Brooklyn that she came to the attention of Decca's Milt
Gabler. Her five-year association with Decca yielded 12 LPs. In
1948, she moved to Chicago with comedian and impressionist George
Kirby, with whom she had fallen in love. At the end of the
relationship, she worked as a pianist and singer at the Archway
Lounge. She played piano steadily for almost four years at a
number of clubs in Chicago before returning to New York in 1952.
In Chicago she developed her own specific style. Those years in
Chicago, McRae told Jazz Forum, "gave me whatever it is that
I have now. That's the most prominent schooling I ever had."
Back in New York in the early 1950s, McRae got the record contract
that launched her career. She was voted best new female vocalist
of 1954 by DownBeat magazine. MacRae married twice: to drummer
Kenny Clarke from 1944 to 1956, though they separated in 1948; and
to bassist Ike Isaacs from 1956 to 1967. Both marriages ended in
divorce. Among her most interesting recording projects were Mad
About The Man (1957) with composer Noel Coward, Boy Meets Girl
(1957) with Sammy Davis, Jr., participating in Dave Brubeck's The
Real Ambassadors (1961) with Louis Armstrong, a tribute album
You're Lookin' at Me (A Collection of Nat King Cole Songs) (1983),
cutting an album of live duets with Betty Carter, The Carmen
McRae-Betty Carter Duets (1987), being accompanied by Dave Brubeck
and George Shearing, and closing her career with tributes to
Thelonious Monk, Carmen Sings Monk (1990), and Sarah Vaughan,
Sarah: Dedicated to You (1991). As a result of her early
friendship with Billie Holiday, she never performed without
singing at least one song associated with "Lady Day",
and she recorded an album in 1983 in her honor entitled For Lady
Day, which was released in 1995, with songs including "Good
Morning Heartache", "Them There Eyes", "Lover
Man", "God Bless the Child" and "Don't
Explain". McRae also recorded with some of the world's best
jazz musicians in albums such as Take Five Live (1961) with Dave
Brubeck, Two for the Road (1980) with George Shearing, and Heat
Wave (1982) with Cal Tjader. The latter two albums were part of a
notable eight-year relationship with Concord Jazz. McRae sang in
jazz clubs throughout the United States-and across the world-for
more than fifty years. She was a popular performer at the Monterey
Jazz Festival (1961-63, 1966, 1971, 1973, 1982), performing with
Duke Ellington's orchestra at the North Sea Jazz Festival in 1980,
singing "Don't Get Around Much Anymore", and at the
Montreux Jazz Festival in 1989. She left New York for Southern
California in the late 1960s, but appeared in New York regularly,
usually at the Blue Note, where she performed two engagements a
year through most of the 1980s. In May-June 1988, she collaborated
with Harry Connick Jr. on the song "Please Don't Talk About
Me When I'm Gone" (S. Clare & S. Stept) in New York City
at the RCA Studios, for Connick's debut album, 20. She withdrew
from public performance in May 1991 after an episode of
respiratory failure only hours after she completed an engagement
at the Blue Note jazz club in New York.
