9/11/06
Well, good morning. As you all know, I usually have a "Today in History" spot on here nad today, 21 years ago, was a great day in Cincinnati Reds history and in MLB history. Pete Rose became the all-time hit king in MLB. Also as we all know, this date is a sad time in American history, with the attacks. Yet it is a great day in Scottish history as the William Wallace lead a sucessful attack at the Battle of Stirling Bridge. My point here is that this day has many different meanings for different people. PUT PETE IN THE HOF.

DID YOU KNOW...
...that the Civilian War Memorial in Singapore was built in 1967 in memory of the civilians massacred during the Japanese Occupation of Singapore from 1942 to 1945?

TODAY IN HISTORY
1297 - Scots under William Wallace defeated English troops in the Battle of Stirling Bridge.
1857 - Paiutes and Mormon militias killed about 120 California-bound pioneers in a wagon train in the Mountain Meadows massacre.
1922 - The British Mandate of Palestine began.
1973 - A military coup in Chile headed by Augusto Pinochet overthrew the government of President Salvador Allende.
1985 - Pete Rose breaks Ty Cobb’s all-time hit record with his 4,192nd hit, a single to left-center field off San Diego Padres pitcher Eric Show.
2001 - September 11 attacks: Three passenger airliners were hijacked to destroy the World Trade Center in New York City and part of The Pentagon in Washington, D.C.; a fourth aircraft crashed in Pennsylvania. In total, almost 3,000 people were killed.

PICTURE OF THE DAY

Panoramic view of the old town of Salzburg, Austria over the River Salzach as viewed from the Festung or Hohensalzburg Fortress. The birthplace of Mozart, Salzburg lies at the northern boundary of the Alps and was the setting for the film The Sound of Music, which was based on the life of Salzburg resident Maria von Trapp. The city has a long history, with traces of human settlements dating back to the Neolithic Age. Today, it is a popular tourist spot, especially for skiers in the winter.
