Seasons 1-10, eh?
Cian O’Mahoney, of SpunOut.ie, writes:
“The next event in our Table Quiz series is going to be on The Simpsons! We will be asking questions on the seasons 1 – 10 so get revising! These seasons are the most shown on TV so you should know a lot of the episodes already. We will have eight rounds of eight questions, including a video round and a picture round. Our table quizzes have been a huge success and we are thrilled with the money they have raised. Thanks to everyone for making them such a hit….”

The Aero-X is a hoverbike capable of flying up to 3m off the ground at 60km/h. The concept has been in development for some years (the second piece of footage above is of an earlier 2012 prototype) but developer/manufacturer Aerofex plans to release a more streamlined design sometime in 2017 for around $85,000.
Naturally, you can pre-order.

“Who knows what class of devilment the capitol’s citizens will get up if the sun comes out, with hip swivelling music and decadent improvising from the country’s finest jazz musicians, and the trading of oysters and porter to boot?”
Great poster, in fairness.
