Here's a brief look back in time for this day, May 13. In 1846, the United States Congress formally declares war on Mexico, sparking the Mexican-American War.

Polk sent soldiers to the disputed zone: an act that was considered a threat. The war lasted for about 2 years […]

Here's a brief look back in time for this day, May 10. In 1773, British parliament passes the Tea Act to the American colonists' dismay, making the East India Tea Company a monopoly on the tea trade. It effectively lowered taxes on the near-bankrupt British company, meaning that they can sell tea more cheaply to the American colonies while the others had to sell at the same rates. This was the catalyst to the Boston Tea Party, where members of […]
Here's a brief look back in time for this day, May 9. In 1950, L. Ron Hubbard publishes his book titled "Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health". Hubbard initially got into the business as a science fiction writer who wrote novellas such as "The Kingslayer" and "Battlefield: Earth". What got Dianetics into the spotlight were its unproven studies into psychoanalysis. The book would set the foundational scripture for what's known today as Scientology. In 1969, the New York Times […]
