Oscar-winning actress Julia Roberts is 58 years young
today.

Complicated and tension-filled negotiations between the United
States and the Soviet Union finally result in a plan to end the two
-week-old Cuban Missile Crisis. A frightening period in which
nuclear holocaust seemed imminent began to come to an end.

On October 26, 1881, the Earp brothers face off against the
Clanton-McLaury gang in a legendary shootout at the O.K.
Corral in Tombstone, Arizona.

Sheriff John Behan of Cochise County, who witnessed the
shootout, charged the Earps and Holliday with murder. A
month later, however, a Tombstone judge found the men
not guilty, ruling that they were “fully justified in committing
these homicides.”

The famous shootout has been immortalized in many movies,
including Frontier Marshal (1939), Shootout at the O.K. Corral
(1946), Gunfight at the OK Corral (1957), Tombstone (1993)
and Wyatt Earp (1994).
