Bugs Bunny was not created by one person. A prototype rabbit first appeared in Porky's Hare Hunt in 1938, a near copy of an earlier Daffy Duck cartoon, directed by Ben Hardaway. Animators then reworked the character across several films, and the name Bugs Bunny came from Charles Thorson's model sheet. Tex Avery's A Wild Hare, released in July 1940, is considered the first official Bugs Bunny cartoon. It introduced the fully developed hunter and tormentor pairing with Elmer Fudd, the standard voice by Mel Blanc, and the catchphrase 'What's up, Doc?' The film was a huge theatrical success and earned an Academy Award nomination.

Israeli reports also say the cabinet directed the military to prepare for a possible new attack on Iran.

Angkor, near Siem Reap in northern Cambodia, was the capital of the Khmer Empire, which ruled much of mainland Southeast Asia between roughly the 9th and 15th centuries. At its height the city spread across about 3,000 square kilometres, making it the largest pre-industrial city on Earth by area. Its growth depended on water: huge reservoirs called barays, along with canals and embankments, stored monsoon rain and carried it to rice fields. That system let farmers harvest more than once a year and fed a very large population through the dry season. The temple complex of Angkor Wat, built in the early 12th century, is the best-known monument and still stands at the heart of the park.
