1953 Kim Basinger - Actress (Hard Country, Blind Date, The Natural, LA Confidential, Batman)

The only thing I've seen her in was L.A. Confidential, nothing else. I know she was a big deal but since her break-up with Alec Baldwin (probably the best thing she ever did) I haven't seen her in anything. By the way... the book was great.

1976 Dominic Monaghan – German-born British actor (Lost, The Lord of the Rings, Hetty Wainthropp Investigates, This Is Personal: The Hunt for the Yorkshire Ripper) He played Etienne Pierre Rollinger in Monsignor Renard, which starred John Thaw

I like him too. The first thing I saw him in was Wainthropp Investigates with the fabulous Patricia Rutledge.

1849 A patent for the safety pin was granted to Walter Hunt

I had my 3 oldest before disposable diapers were used all the time. When I first used them, you had to use safety pins and still rubber pants over. I used cloth diapers which required safety pins soooooo - thank you Walter Hunt. Then, Amy came along and life changed.
