Here’s what’s coming up on Friday, March 21, 2014:  

  • Actor Gary Oldmanknown for roles in Sid and Nancy, The Dark Knight and Dracula, turns 56, so we should send up the bat signal and call for champagne. 
  • Jeweler Tiffany is scheduled to release its quarterly earnings.
  • The infamous Alcatraz penitentiary closed its doors in 1963. At any time, “The Rock” housed less than one percent of the total federal prison population, and more than one million tourists visit every year.
