A Question as Rice Visits: Do We Need Europe? | Condoleezza Rice faces tough challenges in her first trip abroad as Secretary of State. Chief among them: patching up relations with European nations largely opposed to the war in Iraq. But is all her diplomacy worth the effort? We host a discussion on U.S.-European relations. Does the U.S. need Europe? Guests: Peter Ford, chief European Correspondent, Tthe Christian Science Monitor Robert Kagan, senior associate, Carnegie Endowment for International Peace; author, Of Paradise and Power John Mearsheimer, political science professor at University of Chicago; author, The Tragedy of Great Power Politics | English-speaking countries are so economically powerful, mainly through influence of the United States, that most countries include English on their products so that tourists or international customers can read them. Interestingly the dominance of English in international business is so great that if someone is going to learn a second language in order to do business overseas it will almost certainly be English. The result is that English is an expected common skill which only reinforces its dominance. For example someone from Germany doing business with someone from France will likely result in them speaking to each other in English, as the German probably doesn't know French and the Frenchman probably doesn't know German, but both likely understand English to some extent. So when a company is considering what to put on their package to make it accessible to non-native speakers it will almost always be English. |

what's the legal drinking limit in texas | Alcohol laws of Texas An operator of a motor vehicle is considered automatically under the influence of alcohol if a chemical screening shows a blood-alcohol content (BAC) of 0.08 percent or greater. If under the age of 21, a driver in Texas is not able to test positive for any blood-alcohol content (BAC) under penalty of DUI charges. | Stephen F.

Why does symmetry make people look more attractive? | Not 100% sure about this but I think that it is in our genes. Symmetry is associated with healthiness. Back then when it was "only the strongest survive" symmetry was (and is) a sign of a healthy individual with good genes. If you have a healthy partner, you and that person are more likely to create a strong and a healthy descendant that will survive till he/she is able to pass your genes to the next generation. | As our brains got bigger, the shape of our jaw and mouth changed to get out of the way. This made our mouth smaller, but we continued to grow the same amount of teeth. Same number of teeth in a smaller space means they come in compact and crooked. |
Bollywood Star Salman Khan Convicted In Hit-And-Run Case | Bollywood star Salman Khan was sentenced Wednesday to five years in prison for driving while drunk over a group of people sleeping on a sidewalk in 2002, killing one of them. A court in Mumbai, India, granted the 49-year-old Khan bail until Friday. Sessions Court Judge D.W. Deshpande found Khan guilty of culpable homicide not amounting to murder and sentenced him to five years in prison. "Taking stock of the evidence the court holds that you were driving the vehicle," he said. "The court also holds that you were under intoxication. All the charges against you are proved." India's legal system does not use juries; innocence (or guilt) is determined by the judge. Khan has maintained that he was neither drunk on the night of the incident nor driving his Toyota Land Cruiser. Several witnesses said he was driving the vehicle. "Finally, justice has been done," lawyer Abha Singh, a petitioner in the case, told reporters. "The law has been upheld." Khan, one of India's most recognizable and bankable movie stars, is also on bail in a separate case involving the shooting of an endangered black buck. | Police officers carried out arrests on Thursday in connection with alleged sex offences against females which occurred between 2008 and 2015.

Wales believe a friendly with Ukraine would be the perfect preparation for the Euro 2016 tie with Russia. | Discussions have taken place over the prospect of arranging a match in Kiev next March.
"We're hoping that will be one of the [friendly] games," said Wales assistant manager Osian Roberts.
"It's quite obvious to see the similarities with Russia so we're trying to mirror the games in the tournament with the preparation games."
The fixture has an obvious attraction for Ukraine too, given they will face Northern Ireland in Group C in France next summer.
Russia will be Wales' final Group B opponents in Euro 2016 on 20 June in Toulouse, following games against Slovakia (11 June) and England (16 June).
Wales' preparations for the finals began with a 3-2 loss to the Netherlands at Cardiff City Stadium in November.
There are two friendly dates designated in March, with a final warm-up match likely to be staged at the end of May, preferably at home.
Ukraine booked their place in the finals by beating Slovenia in the play-offs. They finished third in their group behind Spain and Slovakia.
"It's important that the friendly games are a useful exercise for us in preparation for the summer," added Roberts on BBC Radio Wales.
"Ukraine would be a perfect preparation game for us, no doubt about that."

The following is a list of fouls established by the states that regulate MMA , as outlined by the Nevada State Athletic Commission . | The following is a list of fouls defined by the states that regulate MMA as outlined by the Nevada State Athletic Commission . | State supreme court Federal courts may overrule a state court only when there is a federal question, which is to say, a specific issue (such as consistency with the Federal Constitution) that gives rise to federal jurisdiction. Federal appellate review of state supreme court rulings on such matters may be sought by way of a petition for writ of certiorari to the Supreme Court of the United States. As the U.S. Supreme Court recognized in Erie Railroad Co. v. Tompkins (1938), no part of the federal Constitution actually grants federal courts or the federal Congress the power to directly dictate the content of state law (as distinguished from creating altogether separate federal law that in a particular situation may override state law). Clause 1 of Section 2 of Article Three of the United States Constitution describes the scope of federal judicial power, but only extended it to "the Laws of the United States" and not the laws of the several or individual states. It is this silence on that latter issue that gave rise to the American distinction between state and federal common law not found in other English-speaking common law federations like Australia and Canada. |
How does a speedometer work? | Speedometers work by linking a flexible cable to the car's transmission. As the engine powers the drive shaft, it spins the cable about it's central axis (can I use axis)? The cable then spins a magnet near the speedometer. The speedometer has a metal needle and a spring that pushes the needle towards 0 mph. As the magnet spins faster, the needle is pulled along with it. The spring prevents the needle from just flying wildly around. The physics behind how the magnet pulls the needle is fairly cool. It involves eddy currents, but it might be too much for ELI5. | The stator consists of a similar, but fixed, series of blades that serve to redirect the steam flow onto the next rotor stage. |
what two states donated land for the nations capital the district of columbia | Washington, D.C. The signing of the Residence Act on July 16, 1790, approved the creation of a capital district located along the Potomac River on the country's East Coast. The U.S. Constitution provided for a federal district under the exclusive jurisdiction of the Congress and the District is therefore not a part of any state. The states of Maryland and Virginia each donated land to form the federal district, which included the pre-existing settlements of Georgetown and Alexandria. Named in honor of President George Washington, the City of Washington was founded in 1791 to serve as the new national capital. In 1846, Congress returned the land originally ceded by Virginia; in 1871, it created a single municipal government for the remaining portion of the District. | It is limited to three very native areas located in Santa Cruz , Monterey Peninsula , and San Luis Obispo Counties . |

A Lancashire police officer accused of drink-driving on duty has been sacked. | PC Iain Norton, 41, was dismissed without notice following a hearing over claims he drove a police vehicle whilst over the legal alcohol limit and being unfit to perform duties, police said.
Mr Norton, from Wesham, was accused of breaching "fitness for duty" and "discreditable conduct" regulations in the Police (Conduct) Regulations 2012.
The full findings of the hearing will be published on 20 September.
The hearing was held at Leyland police station. | Liam Roberts, 35, was also ordered to perform 180 hours of unpaid work and placed on the Sex Offenders Register for three years.
He had pleaded guilty previously to having 874 indecent images.
At least 18 of the pictures were Category A, the highest level.
He also admitted chatting on line with other abusers and distributing indecent pictures to others between 10 March and 27 September 2016.
Roberts, who had served in Police Scotland for eight years, resigned from the force in June this year.
At Edinburgh Sheriff Court, Roberts' solicitor, Lena Docherty, told Sheriff Kenneth McGowan the social work report described her client as at low risk of re-offending and that he had already taken steps to address his conduct.
Sheriff McGowan told Roberts: "As you will know, given your background, offending of this kind can lead to a custodial sentence, but it is quite clear from the guidance I have been given and the evidence of your undertaking rehabilitation, that the court can consider an alternative to custody." |

How are space rockets steered? I don't see any fins or flaps like on a plane | During launch, the engine nozzles do indeed swivel a bit to help steer-- this is called gimballing. In space, very small thrusters pointing different directions are used to control the orientation of the spacecraft so that engine burns are made in the right direction. There is also a technique called spin-stabiliziaton, where spinning a spacecraft rapidly will keep it stable along the spin axis. | a photo of a boat with an airplane in back |
A memorial service to remember seven miners killed in the Lofthouse Colliery disaster, near Wakefield, 40 years ago has taken place. | The men died when the seam they were working flooded after they had cut into an abandoned shaft, releasing three million gallons of trapped water.
The service was held at Outwood Parish Church, Wakefield.
A further service was held on Sunday in the village of Wrenthorpe at the site where the men died.
Frederick Armitage, 41, Colin Barnaby, 36, Frank Billingham, 48, Sydney Brown, 36, Charles Cotton, 49, Edward Finnegan, 40 and Alan Haigh, 30, all died in the disaster on 21 March 1973.
Only Mr Cotton's body was recovered from the disaster. The bodies of the six other men remain in the mine.
After the service, a reunion for miners and the families of the men that died will be held at the Ledger Lane Working Men's Club, where the Lofthouse 2000 Brass Band will perform.
The service earlier was held at the memorial garden in Wrenthorpe and was led by the Bishop of Pontefract.
A procession of ex-miners and local dignitaries are expected to walk for more than a mile from the memorial garden to a church in Alverthorpe, where a documentary film will be shown of the disaster.
Eddie Downes, member of the Lofthouse Colliery Action Group and a mining historian and engineer, said more than 1,000 people from across the country, many from the mining industry, were expected to attend both services.
"They all feel the pain. It's a unique thing in the mining communities. They all feel for each other," he said.
"The services are extremely important. It gives them some continuity to how it unfolded and will complete the picture." | Firefighters were called to the scene in Queensferry Road at 05:46.

The Champions League 2017 final will be Cardiff's biggest event yet, the first minister has said, with 100 days to go until the city hosts the match. | World football's biggest club game will be played at Cardiff's Principality Stadium on 3 June.
Carwyn Jones told BBC Wales it was "challenging" but preparations were "going well".
"It's a going to be a great showcase for Wales," the first minister added.
Thousands of fans are expected to pour into the Welsh capital for the final, which takes place two days after the women's Champions League final at the Cardiff City Stadium on 1 June.
The 100-day countdown to the women's event was kicked off by a choir's flash mob performance in Cardiff with the trophy on Tuesday.
Wales forward Gareth Bale starred as Real Madrid beat city rivals Atletico in the 2016 final at the San Siro stadium in Milan.
And Mr Jones said it was the very fact no one yet knows who will star in this year's final which makes the planning so uncertain.
"This is the biggest [event Cardiff has hosted] to my mind, no question about that," he said.
"It's the sheer numbers of people, the sheer size of the event and the fact that we don't know who's going to be in the final so we don't know where the fans are going to come from."
He said the planners were talking to all the authorities and organisations necessary to make the event a success.
"Cardiff is the smallest city to have hosted the event. It's always challenging, of course, but we'll get there and we'll be offering a fantastic welcome to all who come to our capital city," he added. | Discussions have taken place over the prospect of arranging a match in Kiev next March.

There are renewed rain warnings in place for parts of Scotland already affected by flooding due to Storm Desmond.
The latest yellow "be aware" rain warnings are not expected to be as heavy or as prolonged as recent downpours.
However, due to the saturated nature of the ground and high river levels, the Met Office said further localised flooding and disruption to transport was possible.
The first warning runs from 17:00 on Monday to 05:00 on Tuesday with the second valid from 06:00 on Wednesday to 18:00 on Thursday.
The alerts cover Tayside, Fife, Strathclyde, the Borders and south west Scotland. | Traffic between Scotland and England faced disruption over the weekend as the work was carried out removing Bothwellpark Road Bridge near Hamilton.

A policeman sexually assaulted a teenager in her home while her parents were in the next room, a jury heard. | Keith Burgess, a neighbourhood officer in Southampton, allegedly asked another girl for naked photos as "payment" for helping her family.
The married 42-year-old used his position to befriend parents and gain access to their daughters, the trial at Guildford Crown Court was told.
He denies grooming, sexual assault, making indecent photos and misconduct.
The court heard a 16-year-old was sexually assaulted twice at her family home in May 2015.
On one occasion Mr Burgess is said to have put his hands under her clothing in the kitchen while her parents were watching TV in the lounge.
The teenager told her family and PC Burgess was arrested while on duty.
His mobile phone revealed contact with two other teenagers, including messages of a sexual nature, the jury heard.
Prosecutors said he asked the girls, aged 15 and 17, to send him naked selfies and paid the younger one a total of £220 as an "allowance".
The court heard PC Burgess was "trusted and respected" by families in the Newtown area where he worked.
He told police the 16-year-old girl had said it was "OK" to touch her.

Trigger Locks For Smith & Wesson | -- N-P-R's Tovia Smith reports that Smith and Wesson has decided to include trigger locks with its guns beginning next month. The National Rifle Association argues that it should be left up to individual owners to decide how to store their guns. The trigger locks are completely detachable, there's nothing forcing an owner to use them. | Gun laws in Texas Texas has no laws regarding possession of any firearm regardless of age, without felony convictions; all existing restrictions in State law mirror Federal law. A person of any age, except certain Felons, can possess a firearm such as at a firing range. Texas and Federal law only regulate the ownership of all firearms to 18 years of age or older, and regulate the transfer of handguns to 21 years or older by FFL dealers. However, a private citizen may sell, gift, lease etc. a handgun to anyone over 18 who is not Felon. NFA weapons are also only subject to Federal restrictions; no State regulations exist. Municipal and county ordinances on possession and carry are generally overridden (preempted) due to the wording of the Texas Constitution, which gives the Texas Legislature (and it alone) the power to "regulate the wearing of arms, with a view to prevent crime".[4] Penal Code Section 1.08 also prohibits local jurisdictions from enacting or enforcing any law that conflicts with State statute. Local ordinances restricting discharge of a firearm are generally allowed as State law has little or no specification thereof, but such restrictions do not preempt State law concerning justification of use of force and deadly force. |

Former staff at a closed steelworks have been awarded £6.25m by an employment judge, their union has said. | More than 1,100 members of the Community union claimed there had been a lack of consultation when SSI's Redcar plant closed.
The payout could have been more than £14m but SSI's liquidation means workers will only get the government's contribution.
Union general secretary Roy Rickhuss said it was a "deserved victory".
"However, as we have said before, this small victory will not compensate for the devastation from the end of steel making," he said.
Workers will receive a share of the award from the government's redundancy payments office up to a maximum of 8 weeks' pay, subject to statutory limits and deductions.
Other workers were waiting for the outcome of a case being made by the Unite union, Community said.

She used to work in the Office of the First and Deputy First Ministers.
Special advisors are civil servants that are appointed by ministers to work on party political matters.
A DUP spokesperson said: "Emma Pengelly receives a severance payment in accordance with the terms and conditions of her contract of employment.
"Mrs Pengelly will receive her severance payment from her former employer in due course as it is a contractual obligation to resign upon having become identified as an election candidate."
The new MLA will contest the Stormont election scheduled for next May.
While the exact amount has not been published, special advisors who have been in the job at least four years and leave the post under these circumstances are entitled to a severance payment of six months' salary.
Mrs Pengelly's annual salary was just under £92,000. As an MLA she will earn £48,000 a year.
The TUV leader Jim Allister has said Mrs Pengelly should not take the severance payment. |

It Costs $222,360 To Raise A Child | A middle-income, two-parent family will spend $222,360, on average, to raise a baby born in 2009, according to a government estimate released today. Yes, a number like that screams false precision. Still, some of the broad outlines that go into the estimate are pretty interesting: Housing is the most expensive part of raising a kid. It accounts for 31 percent of the cost, followed by childcare and education (17 percent) and food (16 percent). Read More: The cheapest (and most expensive) places to raise a child The annual cost rises a bit as the child gets older -- from less than $12,000 per year for a baby to more than $13,000 for a teenager. Among urban areas, the Northeast is the most expensive region to raise a child, and the South is the cheapest. Rural areas, which are lumped into a single category, are even cheaper. The cost per child for a two-child family is 25 percent lower than the cost per child for a one-child family. Researchers broke household income into three levels: Less than $56,670; $56,670 to $98,120; and more than $98,120. People in the lower-income group spend 25 percent of their before-tax income on a child; those in the middle-income group spend 16 percent; and those in the higher-income group spend 12 percent. But in absolute terms, spending increases with income. The figures are adjusted for inflation, and costs are calculated through age 17. | -- NPR's Larry Abramson reports that many state welfare officials are responding to Congressional pressure to cut the costs associated with "Women, Infants, and Children," or WIC. WIC provides about 30 dollars a month worth of food supplements to pregnant women and young children.

Dr Jim Taggart said it would take "very freak circumstances" for his son to be found alive.
But he said "someone, somewhere must know something" about what happened.
The 41-year-old retained fire fighter was travelling by himself, on hired motorbike taxis.
But he knew the area, having travelled there two years before he went missing.
His rucksack and passport were found at his guest house in the Vietnamese town of Sapa.
Dr Taggart said it was possible eye witnesses "should not have been there", or might not want to "get involved with local police".
He has called for anyone with family or friends in the area to pass on any information or rumours they may have heard.
"It is very hard to disappear absolutely, completely," he said.
But he said he had accepted it was most likely his son had slipped somewhere on a hillside and suffered fatal injuries.

A strategic town close to the northern city of Aleppo has fallen to Syrian rebels, according to UK-based activist group the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights. | Khan al-Assal was considered the last regime stronghold in the west of Aleppo province.
The rebel victory comes after several defeats at the hands of Syrian armed forces.
The town lies on a route that links the province to the city of Aleppo.
Fighting in Aleppo itself was reported as continuing as both sides attempted to assert control over the city, which is economically the most important in Syria.

What caused Pangea to separate and why did the landmasses separate in those directions? | The answer to both questions is Plate Tectonics. Earth's surface is made up of a series of giant 'plates' of material that slowly movee around the planet. They do this because right below the continents is a layer of rock that is very hot (due to the pressure caused by the continental plates), and not rigid like surface rocks, allowing for very slow movement of the plates resting on top. Over time, these plates drift around the world, periodically merging and breaking apart. Pangaea was only one of many such supercontinents. There were others before that looked very different. _URL_0_ These are the plates that make up our world. the shape of the continents and how they used to look and how they split apart is just a natural result of all of them constantly, slowly moving against each other. | Seafloor spreading Earlier theories (e.g. by Alfred Wegener and Alexander du Toit) of continental drift postulated that continents "ploughed" through the sea. The idea that the seafloor itself moves (and also carries the continents with it) as it expands from a central axis was proposed by Harry Hess from Princeton University in the 1960s.[3] The theory is well accepted now, and the phenomenon is known to be caused by convection currents in the asthenosphere, which is ductile, or plastic, and the brittle lithosphere.[4][clarification needed] |

David Lee Stewart, 31, of Gray's Park Avenue, Belfast, was jailed on Wednesday.
Stewart was sentenced to three and a half years in prison and another three and a half years on licence.
His parents had said after the judgement that they were "disappointed and disgusted" at the length of the sentence.
On Thursday, Peter Dolan, Enda's father, told the Stephen Nolan Show, that he "wouldn't rule out" asking for the sentence to be appealed.
"You can imagine what happened yesterday, it was all a bit of a shock," he said.
"We just have to sit back, reflect and take a bit of advice on it and take a look at it."
Mr Dolan said he was "speechless" over the sentence given to Stewart.
"This guy drinks and drives, kills somebody and gets three and a half years in prison. That is not a deterrent for anybody in my opinion."
Meanwhile, Enda's mother Niamh Dolan told Good Morning Ulster on Thursday morning that she remained "devastated and heartbroken" from his death.
"It's very hard to explain our loss. The most difficult thing I find is to go about your normal day-to-day activities and we have to do that because of the other children," she said.
"No matter how devastated you feel, you have to put a brave face on, pull yourself together and go out with the others - that's a very hard thing to do sometimes.
"I was lucky, really lucky, that I had a brilliant relationship with Enda. We were very, very close.
"Sometimes I think I'm almost being punished for that. If I hadn't have known my son so well, and got on with him so well, it might have been easier to cope with him not being here." |

And he has now committed himself to Celtic until the summer of 2020.
His move to Glasgow followed two years out of the game due to knee problems.

"He is a young goalkeeper we have been aware of for some time. We are thankful to Liverpool and [manager] Brendan [Rodgers] in particular for allowing this to happen.
"He is someone who is highly regarded at his club and they see the importance of getting him out on loan. Danny now has the task and challenge of playing football at a good level with us.

Two tries from Mark Percival helped St Helens earn a hard-fought Super League victory over Hull FC. | Jamie Shaul went over to put Hull ahead, but Saints led at half-time thanks to James Roby's try from dummy-half and a penalty from Percival.
Percival went over after good work from Theo Fages, before Mahe Fonua crossed to reduce the visitors' deficit.
But Percival touched down acrobatically from Fages' kick, before Danny Richardson's drop-kick sealed the win.
Saints are now almost certain to finish in Super League's top eight, with only Catalans - six points behind with three games to play - able to catch them.
Hull, who lost 45-0 when the two sides met in May, were already assured of a top-eight finish, as they stay fourth in the table.
The result could have been different had Fetuli Talanoa not had a try correctly disallowed for a push on Tommy Makinson shortly before Percival's second try, but instead Saints held on for a sixth consecutive home victory.

But Hughes added to earlier scores from Joe Westerman and Rhys Evans to win it.
Castleford, for whom Denny Solomona touched down in the first half, must win their last four games to stand any chance of finishing in the top four.
Warrington's next fixture is the Challenge Cup final against Hull FC at Wembley on 27 August.
Warrington head coach Tony Smith: "It was a tough game but Castleford are one of the best attacking teams in the country and have recently taken the scalps of Hull and Wigan.
"To keep them to one try was a big effort. That was probably their final crack at it but it seals our own position in the top four."
Castleford head coach Daryl Powell: "It's tough to lose like this and I don't think anyone could have argued if we'd won by a point.
"It was a war of attrition but we nullified Warrington's strength for most of the game. We are going to grow from this and the team has a big future."

Staff absenteeism is a worsening problem for Northern Ireland's 26 councils, according to the annual report of the local government auditor. | It found that it averaged 12 days per employee, a rise of 15%, after falling for the previous five years.
The highest absence rate of 17 days was in Carrickfergus Borough Council and the lowest was seven days in Cookstown.
Carrickfergus council said it has recently introduced measures to improve the health and well-being of its staff.
Between them, Northern Ireland's 26 councils employ 9,700 staff and the statistics in the report relate to the 2012-13 financial year.
Carrickfergus was also one of two authorities which did not have "proper arrangements" in place around governance issues.
The local government auditor, Louise Mason, said it related to procurement and workforce management, but added the council had put in place procedures to address her concerns.
The other council she highlighted over governance in her report was Larne.
Among her concerns was its financial planning.
She also drew attention to a £292,000 fraud involving Belfast City Council in July 2013.
It involved changing the details of bank account held by one of its main contractors, into which the money was paid.
The council recovered most of the loss from its insurers.
A PSNI investigation concluded there was no evidence to suggest that either council or contractor employees were involved.
Responding to the audit report, a spokesperson for Carrickfergus Borough Council said it was "aware of the high levels of sick absence in the year in question but has since put in place a comprehensive package of measures to improve the health and well-being of staff".
"This has proven to be successful and has significantly reduced absenteeism," the statement added. | The party said councillor Emmet McDonough-Brown and representative Duncan Morrow were each "hand-delivered" a bullet on Friday night.
Alliance offices and members have been targeted a number of times since a vote on the flying of the union flag at Belfast City Hall in December 2012.
The party said the latest threats would not intimidate them.
"The irony is that this happened during Culture Night, a night when Belfast came together as a city, shared space and gave us a glimpse of what is possible when we work together," Mr McDonough-Brown said.
"These people are afraid of what Alliance stands for. Their attempt at intimidation will not succeed."
Mr Morrow said those responsible "offer Belfast nothing and only wish to see a return to the dark days of the past."
In a statement, the police said: "We do not discuss the security of any individual.
"However, if we receive information that a person's life may be at risk, we will inform them accordingly. We never ignore anything which may put an individual at risk." |

when did the first home video game come out | Video game console The first video games appeared in the 1960s.[20] They were played on massive computers connected to vector displays, not analog televisions. Ralph H. Baer conceived the idea of a home video game in 1951. In the late 1960s, while working for Sanders Associates, Baer created a series of video game console designs. One of these designs, which gained the nickname of the 1966 "Brown Box", featured changeable game modes and was demonstrated to several TV manufacturers, ultimately leading to an agreement between Sanders Associates and Magnavox.[21] In 1972, Magnavox released the Magnavox Odyssey, the first home video game console which could be connected to a TV set. Ralph Baer's initial design had called for a huge row of switches that would allow players to turn on and off certain components of the console (the Odyssey lacked a CPU) to create slightly different games like tennis, volleyball, hockey, and chase. Magnavox replaced the switch design with separate cartridges for each game. Although Baer had sketched up ideas for cartridges that could include new components for new games, the carts released by Magnavox all served the same function as the switches and allowed players to choose from the Odyssey's built-in games. | Because they still make money regardless of how many mistakes they make. Despite all the disappointment with those games, they still sold millions of copies. |

A charity moped trip by a group of pensioners has hit the skids after 17 of the group were given parking fines in Belfast. | The pensioners, from the Wirral in north-west England, had hit the road in aid of Medecins Sans Frontieres.
On Tuesday morning, the group found they had been fined for parking on a pavement in the Titanic Quarter.
However, the group are now back in the saddle after the fines were rescinded.
In a statement, the Parking and Enforcement Agency, who issued the fines, said: "Unfortunately our patrol operatives were not made aware of the charity event being held.
"As soon as we were informed of it, we cancelled all the fines issued."
The group, known as the Wirral Wobblers, had parked outside the hotel they were staying in on Monday night.
"When we woke up and went down to breakfast we found that every single moped had got a parking ticket on it," said Pat Keeling, one of the group.
"It's a sad day when you realise you've been fined more than you've collected," she added.
The pensioners said that they believed they could park outside the hotel.
Signs in the area indicated that no parking was allowed at any time.
Overall, however, the group said that the week has been a two-wheeled success.
"Our average age is 70 and if you combine them it comes to 1,241 years," said Ted Bemand, the organiser of the trip.
"So we're cracking on a bit. Typically, our mopeds are 30 to 40 years old.
"We've driven through the snow, on the first day it snowed. It was no problem.
"We've had breakdowns, a few little crashes, punctures, engines seized up - and now the fines." | Six people in snow field with ski equipment. |

An Edinburgh police officer caught with nearly 900 indecent images of children has been placed under supervision on a Community Payback Order for three years. | Liam Roberts, 35, was also ordered to perform 180 hours of unpaid work and placed on the Sex Offenders Register for three years.
He had pleaded guilty previously to having 874 indecent images.
At least 18 of the pictures were Category A, the highest level.
He also admitted chatting on line with other abusers and distributing indecent pictures to others between 10 March and 27 September 2016.
Roberts, who had served in Police Scotland for eight years, resigned from the force in June this year.
At Edinburgh Sheriff Court, Roberts' solicitor, Lena Docherty, told Sheriff Kenneth McGowan the social work report described her client as at low risk of re-offending and that he had already taken steps to address his conduct.
Sheriff McGowan told Roberts: "As you will know, given your background, offending of this kind can lead to a custodial sentence, but it is quite clear from the guidance I have been given and the evidence of your undertaking rehabilitation, that the court can consider an alternative to custody." | A total of 21 victims were aged under 10 and offences includes rape, sexual assault and grooming, said the NSPCC.
The welfare charity said it was the first year police had been required to "cyber flag" sex crimes involving children and the internet.
It said 3,000 such crimes were recorded last year in Wales and England.
Across Wales, there was a variation in the numbers of offences cyber-flagged.
Dyfed Powys Police recorded 116 offences, North Wales 95, Gwent 59 and South Wales 26.
North Wales Police recorded three rapes involving use of the internet; against two boys, under 13 and 16, and a girl aged under 13.
NSPCC Cymru head Des Mannion said: "The sheer number of cases confirms our fears that the digital world is playing a significant role in the sexual abuse of children.
"It's clear that a large volume of sexual assaults, and in some cases rapes, have involved use of the internet - for example by grooming victims before abusing them offline, or live-streaming the abuse.
"Online abuse can be just one click away and we need innovative solutions to help keep Welsh children safe."
The figures, which were obtained by the NSPCC via a Freedom of Information request to police in England and Wales, are being discussed at its annual child protection conference in London. |

who owns the rights to thundarr the barbarian | Thundarr the Barbarian Thundarr the Barbarian is an American Saturday morning animated series, created by Steve Gerber and produced by Ruby-Spears Productions. The series ran for two seasons on ABC from October 4, 1980 to October 31, 1981, and was rerun on NBC in 1983.[citation needed] | Most reviewers have awarded the action-packed epic four or five stars, with The Daily Telegraph describing it as a "Krakatoan eruption of craziness".

Jamie Graham from Total Film said the blockbuster had "some of the greatest action ever put on screen".
He wrote: "In the battle of the 2015 behemoths, the maxed-out madness of Mad Max: Fury Road sets an extraordinarily high bar - then pole-vaults clean over it and smashes the entire rig to smithereens."
Writing for Hollywood bible Variety, Justin Chang said the "word-of-mouth excitement over the film's beautifully brutal action sequences should lend it tremendous commercial velocity".

England head coach Eddie Jones says Northampton's Teimana Harrison is the favourite to fill the troublesome open-side flanker spot against South Africa. | England have been hit by injuries in the back row, with James Haskell, Sam Jones and Mike Williams all ruled out, along with the versatile Maro Itoje.
Harrison, 24, lasted just half an hour in England's last Test match against Australia in Sydney.
"He's gone back and worked on his game very hard," Jones told BBC Sport.
"His last game against Castres was exceptional and he's probably our number one choice open-side flanker at the moment."
Meanwhile Jones says the recalled flanker Tom Wood has a "great chance" of being selected this autumn.
Wood was dropped following the Rugby World Cup, with Jones telling him his performances were "distinctly average".
"He's improved his work-rate, his impact as a ball carrier, and he's certainly above average now," Jones added.
"He's got very good lineout skills and his breakdown work has improved. So we are excited about him being in the squad.
"His [lineout work] gives him a great chance of being selected."
Jones has selected six uncapped players in his 33-man squad, but has played down their chances of being selected against the Springboks on 12 November.
"Making your debut against South Africa is probably not the right game to make your debut," Jones explained.
England travel to Portugal for a training camp on Sunday, hoping to avoid a repeat of the last gathering in Brighton which resulted in three players suffering serious injuries.
"We will be doing everything in our power to make sure we have an injury-free camp," Jones said.
