•	On this day in 1956: IBM introduced its 305 RAMAC, the world’s first commercial computer to feature a moving-head hard disk drive for secondary storage. This groundbreaking system revolutionized data processing, allowing users to store, access and manage 5 million alphanumeric characters with unprecedented speed and efficiency.
•	In 1964: The Kellogg Company began selling Pop-Tarts, the now-famous toaster pastries. Initially released in four flavors (strawberry, blueberry, brown sugar/cinnamon and apple currant), Pop-Tarts were an instant hit and have since become a staple in American breakfast culture.
•	In 1964: John Steinbeck, the esteemed American author, was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom. The honor recognized his significant contributions to literature, including his Pulitzer Prize-winning work “The Grapes of Wrath” and a Nobel Prize.
•	In 1975: Elizabeth Ann Seton was canonized by Pope Paul VI, becoming one of the first American-born saints. She founded the Sisters of Charity of St. Joseph, the first community of Catholic women in the United States, and her life’s work had a lasting impact on Catholic education and charity work.
•	In 1985: “The Golden Girls” made its debut on NBC. The sitcom, starring Bea Arthur, Betty White, Rue McClanahan and Estelle Getty, revolved around four older women sharing a home in Miami. The series twice won an Emmy Award for Outstanding Comedy Series, and all four stars received Emmys for their performances.
•	In 2015: Ahmed Mohamed, a 14-year-old student, was wrongfully arrested at his Texas school for bringing in a homemade clock that was mistaken for a bomb. The incident ignited a national debate on racial profiling and Islamophobia, culminating in an invitation to the White House for Mohamed from President Barack Obama.
