It’s Monday and on this day in history: 
Most Profitable Pirate Raid
1695 English pirate Henry Every and his crew aboard the Fancy capture the armed Mughal trading ship Ganj-i-Sawai in the Arabian Sea in one of the most profitable raids in history, with loot valued between £325,000 and £600,000. The East India Company later compensates for the loss after Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb closes five ports to English trade.
> > > Clint’s comment: Different times eh? Mind you, some world leaders these days behave just like pirates!

Joule, Watt and Quadrant Adopted
1889 Second International Electrical Congress adopts the joule as unit of energy (after James Prescott Joule), the watt as unit of power (after James Watt) and the quadrant as unit of electrical inductance (later renamed henry)
