 November 1st, 1765The Stamp Act takes effect, as Britain imposes a tax on its American colonists1. They respond with stiff resistance and Britain later repeals2 the Act. But the episode sets the stage for the American Revolution a decade later. 1952The United States explodes the first hydrogen bomb, code-named “Mike”. The test takes place at Eniwetok Atoll in the Marshall Islands in the South Pacific. 1512At the Vatican, Michelangelo's paintings on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel3 are first shown to the public.

1954In North Africa, Algerian nationalists begin their successful eight-year rebellion against French rule.
And 1999“Every guy, every officers of mine that play for the Chicago Bears, help me get that 16 thousand yards. And I thank that.” Walter Payton, the NFL's all-time leading rusher, dies of bile duct cancer in Barrington, Illinois. The former Chicago Bears running back was 45 years old.
