Atari Video Game Burial
The Atari video game burial was a mass burial of unsold video game cartridges, consoles, and computers in a New Mexico landfill site undertaken by the American video game and home computer company Atari, Inc. in 1983. Before 2014, the goods buried were rumored to be unsold copies of ''E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial'' (1982), one of the largest commercial video game failures and often cited as one of the worst video games ever released, and the 1982 Atari 2600 port of ''Pac-Man'', which was commercially successful but critically maligned. Since the burial was first reported, there had been doubts as to its veracity and scope, and it was frequently dismissed as an urban legend. The event became a cultural icon and a reminder of the video game crash of 1983; it was the end result of a disastrous fiscal year which saw Atari, Inc. sold off by its parent company Warner Communications. Though it was believed that millions of copies of ''E.T.'' were buried, Atari officials later verified ...

In the United States, following the 1973 release of the song "Aubrey", by the band Bread, ''Aubrey'' began to be commonly used as a given name for girls, potentially influenced by its similarity to ''Audrey''. In 2023, ''Aubrey'' was the 101st most popular girls' name in the United States. Etymology ''Aubrey'' is from the Norman French derivation ''Aubry'' of the Germanic given name ''Alberic'' / Old High German given name ''Alberich'', which consists of the elements ''alb'' 'elf' and ''ric'' 'power' or 'ruler', Before being largely replaced by ''Aubrey'' after the Norman Conquest of England, the Anglo-Saxons used the native form ''Ælfrīc''. The mediaeval feminine name ''Aubrée'', independently derived from the Germanic name ''Alberada'', was common in Normandy and Post-Conquest England. ...
