Completed this past summer, the contraption--a one-foot high, triangular arrangement of plastic orange panels, ultrasonic sensors, and wheels--is the only one of its kind in the country, according to its makers, Jury, Patrick J. Lusk and Tim S. Farlow...

NBC earned the doubtful honor of being first to announce that Democrat Lester Maddox had won the race for Governor of Georgia. After the other networks made the same mistake, a beaming Maddox...
