August 15: What is one significant news that happened today, in 2009, or in History?
Couple rules:
1. It can be any type of story: world news > politics > sports > entertainment
2. It can't be a story I already have on the August 15 timeline page.
3. Please only post 1 story.

Earliest dated book, "Mainz Psalter," completed. The Mainz Psalter is the earliest dated example of printed matter issuing from the new moveable-print technology of Johannes Gutenberg. Ten copies in two versions of this "first book" still exist today.

I think there are literally like a few hundred events as well as a tab for births and another for deaths!
