Hello. I'm Beth Carroll. Welcome to New Hampshire Outlook.
Video games have taken hold of our culture with their flash and excitement.
But did you know a gentleman from New Hampshire is actually credited with being
the "father of home video games?!"
Manchester's Ralph Baer came up with the idea in 19-66 while waiting for a co-worker at a bus terminal.
He's this week's NH Original.

script iconIntro MINH/Burdick
Return to index of stories...
Nothing melts a heart like Valentines chocolate -- so, with the special day fast approaching we thought it might be a good to revisit a business that brings the artistry of making chocolate to a whole new level.
In this Making It in New Hampshire report we travel to Walpole -- home to Burdick Chocolate.
Outlook's Allison McNair first visisted the chocolatier in 2001 -- where she met the creative mind behind the business.

Finally we take a look up at February's NH Skies with John Gianforte -- an astronomy instructor with Granite State College and co-founder of the Astronomical Society of Northern New England.
This month we get an update on planet viewing opportunities and an explanation on those light and dark spots on the moon's surface.
Outlook's Chip Neal caught up with Gianforte at the Christa McAuliffe Planetarium in Concord.

To learn more about astronomy -- you can look for John Gianforte's monthly column in Foster's Daily Democrat called "Scanning the Heavens."
It runs the first Tuesday of the month.

Thursday February 9, 2006
We had all tapes in the show. It looked good. However, we did notice a few minor things to fix. On the keys there is this change in hue half way through the banner. And we noticed the monitor has a blue dark tint to it that changes the look of any graphic that goes into it. So we need to really take our time to figure out how to use the monitor to look it's best.
