1946 Winston Churchill delivered his speech on the divide between Eastern and Western Europe, which is now famously know as the ‘Iron Curtain’ speech.

1975  Also the birthday of the actress Eva Mendes, who rose to fame in the film Training Day back in 2001 but we probably most recognise her from the film Hitch (and for dating Ryan Gosling)

In Iran, today is National Tree Painting Day.
