How the microwave was invented
The microwave oven is of the all-time great "accidental" discoveries of science. In the 1940s, American engineer Percy Spencer was working at Raytheon Technologies testing an active radar while he
had a chocolate bar in his pocket. At some point, he noticed that the chocolate had melted into his pocket. Rather than merely changing his trousers, he realised the potential to heat food using a high-density electromagnetic field (and presumably also changed his trousers). He first experimented by getting a bag of popcorn, and attempting to heat that. It worked. He pushed his luck and tried to heat an egg, which exploded spectacularly, thus also inventing the "don't put an egg in the microwave" rule. Spencer next worked on putting magnetrons (which create microwave radiation) inside a Faraday cage (which blocks electromagnetic fields). The result was a massive microwave oven – around the size of a fridge – which Raytheon began to sell commercially to restaurants in 1947, at $5000 (around $60,000 today). However, the microwave was not widespread until it was made smaller and cheaper, which wouldn't really happen until the late 1960s or early 1970s.

As farms rapidly turn to forests, Gisborne district councillors say "very low land valuations" of forestry properties result in other ratepayers unfairly carrying the rates burden.
Gisborne's mayor says the tool used to rate forestry blocks is not realistic, while the deputy mayor says the district council is "hamstrung" on legislation.

Forsyth Barr, Craigs Investment Partners and Jarden analysts have all tweaked their ratings, or 12-month target price, after Pushpay's full-year result - and several numbers that took the market by surprise.
Analysts were sharply split
ahead of the full-year report - particularly over how well it would handle two big challenges: dealing with new, lower-cost competition and breaking into the Catholic market.
