Good morning. Today is the 101^st day of the year. It is the anniversary of the Bataan Death March in 1942. Japanese soldiers herded thousands of American and Filipino prisoners together at Bataan, Philippines, and began a march to Camp O’Donnell near Cabanatuan. During the six-day march prisoners were given only one bowl of rice. More than 5,200 Americans and thousands of Filipinos lost their lives.
 
Well-known people who were born today include singer-songwriter Kenneth “Babyface” Edmonds, sportscaster and Hall of Fame football coach John Earl Madden, actor Harry Morgan (“M*A*S*H*,” “Dragnet”), actor-producer Steven Seagal (Hard To Kill, Out for Justice) and actor Max Von Sydow (The Seventh Seal, The Emigrants).

 

This evening at 6:30 p.m. at the 78^th Precinct house, 65 Sixth Ave., Park Slope, community boards 2 and 6 will host a joint presentation and review session on the application of several food concessions within Barclays Center for liquor licenses.
