Love his role in Gran Torino.
31st May 1895, a Doctor and Nutritionist named John Kellogg filed for a Patent for Flaked Cereal. John ran the Battle Creek Sanitarium and believed a healthy diet would rid people of the desire for masturbation.
john feuded with his brother Will over the inclusion of sugar. Will, later on, created his own business and called it, Will’s Battle Creek Toasted Cork Flake Company which later he renamed to Kelloggs.

Glad I didn't eat Sanitarium products. 
They began in the 1890s at the Battle Creek Sanitarium in Michigan, USA,. "Based on the teachings of visionary Seventh-day Adventist Ellen G. White, the Sanitarium doctors advocated healthier eating, drinking fresh water and exercising outdoors to help people 'learn to stay well' (the meaning of the word Sanitarium)". "When Ellen White moved to Australia, she and her son Willie White were instrumental in starting the health food movement. They approached the Seventh-day Adventist Church to support its formalisation," They then built a factory in the thick forests of the Warburton valley (population only 2200 today. The only real town in the upper Yarra River valley. Built in the early 1900s, site of Victoria's first and closest ski field to Melbourne. Supplying Australia with its Granose, Corn Flakes and Wheat Bix until the factory closed in 1997. Perhaps it was built there because it was too cold to encourage masturbation even for Willie,....

On this date in 1971, THE DOORS released the single RIDERS ON THE STORM (Jun 2, 1971).
The final track of the final album with Jim Morrison, "Riders on the Storm" was a collective effort by the Doors.
Based on the arrangement "Ghost Riders in the Sky" and the line "delicate riders of the storm", taken from Hart Crane's poem "Praise for an Urn", the track melded Morrison's hitchhiker imagery from his own poetry projects.
The faint, ghostly backdrop heard throughout the song was the last recording of Morrison as a member the Doors.
The brooding, jazzy "Riders on the Storm," was the group at its most melodic and ominous.
