In 1922, the horror classic “Frankenstein,” based on a stage adaptation of Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley’s 1818 novel, was released in the U.S. The film helped make the hulking monster, portrayed by actor Boris Karloff, one of the most recognizable characters in film history.

In 2000, the United Farm Workers called off the boycott of growers of California table grapes begun in 1984 by union organizer Cesar Chavez, saying the goals of the strike had been met. In 2002, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization extended an official invitation to Bulgaria, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Romania, Slovakia and Slovenia to begin accession talks to join the alliance.
