According to scientists around the world, these rocks are very different from meteorites and other rocks found on Earth.
The rocks are also 200,000,000 (200 million) years older than any rock found on Earth, and are similar to moon rocks later brought back by the USSR.
Some moon rocks could have been collected without landing on the moon, but the first moon rock was found on Earth in 1979, and it was only discovered in 1982 that it came from the moon.
Also, moon rocks are very rare on Earth, and only  have ever been discovered, while the Apollo missions brought back 380 kilograms.
In 2004, Martin Hendry and Ken Skeldon from the University of Glasgow investigated the 'Moon Hoax'.
In November 2004, they spoke at the Glasgow Science Centre and examined the top ten lines of evidence that a hoax had taken place.

The Whig Party was a political party of the United States.
It was famous during the years of Jacksonian democracy.
It is thought to be important to the Second Party System.
Operating from 1833 to 1856, the party was formed opposing the policies of President Andrew Jackson and the Democratic Party.
The Whigs supported the importance of Congress over the importance of the executive branch.
They favored a program of modernization.
Their name was chosen to tell people about the American Whigs of 1776, who fought for independence. "
Whig" was then a widely recognized label of choice for people who saw themselves as opposing autocratic rule.
The Whig Party had national leaders as Daniel Webster, William Henry Harrison, Henry Clay of Kentucky.
The Whig Party also had four war heroes among them, such as Generals Zachary Taylor and Winfield Scott.
Abraham Lincoln was a Whig leader in frontier Illinois.
In its over two decades of existence, the Whig Party saw two of its candidates, Harrison and Taylor, elected president.
Both died in office.
John Tyler became president after Harrison's death, but was thrown out from the party.
Millard Fillmore, who became president after Taylor's death, was the last Whig to hold the nation's highest office.
The party was ultimately destroyed by the question of whether to allow the expansion of slavery to the territories.
The anti-slavery faction successfully prevented the nomination of its own incumbent President Fillmore in the 1852 presidential election.
Instead, the party nominated General Winfield Scott, who was defeated.
Its leaders quit politics (as Lincoln did temporarily) or changed parties.
The voter base defected to the Republican Party, various coalition parties in some states, and to the Democratic Party.
By the 1856 presidential election, the party had lost its ability to maintain a national coalition of effective state parties and endorsed Millard Fillmore, now of the American Party, at its last national convention.

Coriaria nepalensis is a shrub growing in the foothills of Himalayas.
It blooms in spring and has beautiful yellow flowers and red fruits in summer.
It is a shrub, 1.5-2.5 metres tall.
Flowers are in groups (inflorescences ) and they are male or female but in the same plant; their color is yellow.
It blooms from February to May.
Fruits are red to dark purple when mature.
They look like berries but they are small nuts (achenes) protected by enlarged and colored petals.
Fruits are produced from May to August but they cannot be eaten because their seeds are poisonous.
C. nepalensis grows in southern slopes of the Himalayas (Bhutan, India, Nepal, Pakistan), usually between 800 and 2500 m.
This species was also found in southern China in mountain slopes at 200–3200 m high.

organism which causes Leishmaniasis.
It is a Trypanosomatid parasite in the Euglenozoa phylum.
It is spread by sandflies of the genus Phlebotomus in the Old World, and of the genus Lutzomyia in the New World.
Their primary hosts are vertebrates; Leishmania commonly infects hyraxes, canids, rodents, and humans.
Leishmania currently affects 12 million people in 98 countries.
The parasite causes three kinds of disease.
Each type of disease is caused by different species of the parasite.
Skin disease: the Oriental sore
Mucous membrane leishmaniasis: can be fatal
Visceral disease of the liver and spleen, and anaemia.
So-called kala-azar
Leishmania have a lipophosphoglycan coat on the outside of the cell.
This is a trigger for toll-like receptor 2, a signalling receptor which triggers an innate immune response in mammals.
The parasite can withstand the counter-attack by the immune system.
There are treatments, which consist in helping the immune system to respond.

The Samlesbury witches were three women who were said to be witches, murderers and cannibals.
The three women, Jane Southworth, Jennet Bierley, and Ellen Bierley, were accused of practising witchcraft by a 14-year-old girl, Grace Sowerbutts.
They were tried in the village of Samlesbury in Lancashire.
Their trial on 19 August 1612 was one of a series of witch trials held over two days.
It is among the most famous in English history.
The trials were unusual for England at that time for two reasons.
First, Thomas Potts, the clerk to the court, wrote about it in his The Wonderfull Discoverie of Witches in the Countie of Lancaster.
Secondly, the number of people found guilty and hanged were high: ten at Lancaster and another at York.
Some of those accused were burnt alive and hung.
The women were accused of murdering children, and of cannibalism, amongst other things.
In contrast, other people tried at the same time were accused of maleficium, that is causing harm by witchcraft.
This included the Pendle witches.
The case against the three women collapsed "spectacularly" when the main witness, Grace Sowerbutts, was shown by the trial judge to be "the perjuring tool of a Catholic priest".
Many historians, most notably Hugh Trevor-Roper, have said that the witch trials of the 16th and 17th century were a result of the religious struggles of the period.
During this time, both the Catholic and Protestant Churches wanted to stamp out what they saw as heresy.
The trial of the Samlesbury witches is perhaps one clear example of that trend; it has been described as "largely a piece of anti-Catholic propaganda",.
A trial would show that Lancashire, a wild and lawless area, was being cleared not only of witches but also of "popish plotters", that is, Catholics.
King James I, came to the English throne in 1603.
He was influenced by the strict Scottish Reformation very much.
He was very interested in witchcraft.
By the early 1590s, he was convinced that Scottish witches plotted against him.
His 1597 book, Daemonologie, he told his followers that they must report and prosecute any supporters or practitioners of witchcraft.
In 1604 a new witchcraft law was made, called "An Act against Conjuration, Witchcraft and dealing with evil and wicked spirits".
Anyone who caused harm by the use of magic or the exhumation of corpses for magical purposes would be given the death penalty.
James was, did not believe some of the evidence presented in witch trials, he even personally showed discrepancies in the testimonies presented against some accused witches.
The accused witches lived in Lancashire.
At the end of the 16th century, the government thought this county was a wild and lawless area, "fabled for its theft, violence and sexual laxity, where the church was honoured without much understanding of its doctrines by the common people".
Since the death of Queen Mary and the coming to the throne of her half-sister Elizabeth in 1558, Catholic priests had been forced to hide, but in remote areas like Lancashire they were still able to celebrate mass in secret.
In early 1612, the year of the trials, each justice of the peace (JP) in Lancashire was ordered to make a list of the recusants in their area—those who refused to attend the services of the Church of England, which was a criminal offence at that time.
Southworth family
During the 16th century English Reformation, the Church of England broke away from the rule of the pope and the Catholic Church.
This event split up the Southworth family of Samlesbury Hall.
Sir John Southworth, head of the family until his death in 1595, was a leading recusant.
He  had been arrested many times for not giving up his Catholic faith.
His eldest son, also called John, did join the Church of England, for which his father disinherited him.
The rest of the family stayed strictly Catholic.
One of the accused witches, Jane Southworth, was the widow of the disinherited son, John.
Relations father and son were not polite; John Singleton, said that the father would not even go past his son's house if he could keep clear of it, and believed that Jane would probably kill her husband.
Jane Southworth (born Jane Sherburne) and John were married in about 1598, and the couple lived in Samlesbury Lower Hall.
John had died only a few months before her trial for witchcraft in 1612, and she had seven children.
On 21 March 1612, Alizon Device, who lived just outside the Lancashire village of Fence, near Pendle Hill, met John Law, a pedlar from Halifax.
She asked him for some pins, which he refused to give to her, and a few minutes later Law suffered a stroke, for which he blamed Alizon.
Along with her mother Elizabeth and her brother James, Alizon had to appear before local magistrate Roger Nowell on 30 March 1612.
Based on the evidence and confessions he obtained, Nowell sent Alizon and ten others to Lancaster Gaol, to be tried for maleficium—causing harm by witchcraft.
Other Lancashire magistrates learned of Nowell's discovery of witchcraft in the county.
On 15 April 1612 JP Robert Holden began investigations in his own area of Samlesbury.
As a result, eight individuals were sent to trial, including Jane Southworth, Jennet Bierley, and Ellen Bierley.
They were said to have used witchcraft on Grace Sowerbutts, Jennet's granddaughter and Ellen's niece.
The trial was held on 19 August 1612 before Sir Edward Bromley, a judge seeking promotion to a circuit nearer London.
He may have wanted to impress King James, the head of the judiciary.
Before the trial, Bromley ordered the release of five of the eight defendants from Samlesbury, with a warning about their future conduct.
Jane Southworth, Jennet Bierley, and Ellen Bierley were said to have used "diverse devilish and wicked Arts, called Witchcrafts, Inchauntments, Charmes, and Sorceries, in and upon one Grace Sowerbutts", to which they pleaded not guilty.
Fourteen-year-old Grace was the chief prosecution witness.
Grace was the first to give evidence.
She said that both her grandmother and aunt, Jennet and Ellen Bierley, were able to change themselves into dogs and that they had "haunted and vexed her" for years.
She also said that they had transported her to the top of a hayrick by her hair.
They had also tried to make her drown herself.
Grace said the women had taken her to the house of Thomas Walshman and his wife, from whom they had stolen a baby to suck its blood.
Grace said the child died the next night and  after its burial at Samlesbury Church, Ellen and Jennet dug up the body and took it home.
The women then cooked and ate some of it and used the rest to make an ointment that let them change themselves into other shapes.
Grace also said that her grandmother and aunt, with Jane Southworth, went to sabbats held every Thursday and Sunday night at Red Bank, on the north shore of the River Ribble.
At those secret meetings they met with "foure black things, going upright, and yet not like men in the face", with whom they ate, danced, and had sex.
Thomas Walshman, the father of the baby allegedly killed and eaten by the accused, was the next to give evidence.
He confirmed that his child had died of unknown causes at about one-year-old.
He added that Grace Sowerbutts was discovered lying as if dead in his father's barn on about 15 April, and did not recover until the following day.
Two other witnesses, John Singleton and William Alker, confirmed that Sir John Southworth, Jane Southworth's father-in-law, had been reluctant to pass the house where his son lived, as he believed  Jane to be an "evil woman, and a Witch".
Thomas Potts, the clerk, wrote that after hearing the evidence many of those in court were persuaded of the accused's guilt.
On being asked by the judge what answer they could make to the charges laid against them, Potts reports that they "humbly fell upon their knees with weeping tears", and "desired him [Bromley] for Gods cause to examine Grace Sowerbutts".
Immediately "the countenance of this Grace Sowerbutts changed"; the witnesses "began to quarrel and accuse one another", and eventually admitted that Grace had been coached in her story by a Catholic priest they called Thompson.
Bromley then committed the girl to be examined by two JPs, William Leigh and Edward Chisnal.
Under questioning Grace readily admitted that her story was untrue, and said she had been told what to say by Jane Southworth's uncle, Christopher Southworth aka Thompson, a Jesuit priest who was in hiding in the Samlesbury area; Southworth was the chaplain at Samlesbury Hall, and Jane Southworth's uncle by marriage.
Leigh and Chisnal questioned the three accused women in an attempt to discover why Southworth might have fabricated evidence against them, but none could offer any reason other than that each of them "goeth to the [Anglican] Church".
The Wonderfull Discoverie of Witches in the Countie of Lancaster
Almost everything that is known about the trials comes from a report of the proceedings written by Thomas Potts, the clerk to the Lancaster Assizes.
Potts was told to write his account by the trial judges, and had completed the work by 16 November 1612.
Bromley revised and corrected the manuscript before its publication in 1613, and said it was "truly reported" and "fit and worthy to be published".
Although written as an apparently verbatim account, the book is not a report of what was actually said at the trial, but instead a reflection on what happened.
Nevertheless, Potts "seems to give a generally trustworthy, although not comprehensive, account of an Assize witchcraft trial, provided that the reader is constantly aware of his use of written material instead of verbatim reports".
In his introduction to the trial, Potts writes; "Thus have we for a time left the Graund Witches of the Forest of Pendle, to the good consideration of a very sufficient jury."
Bromley had by then heard the cases against the three Pendle witches who had confessed to their guilt, but he had yet to deal with the others, who maintained their innocence.
He knew that the only testimony against them would come from a nine-year-old girl, and that King James had cautioned judges to examine carefully the evidence presented against accused witches, warning against credulity.
In his conclusion to the account of the trial, Potts says that it was interposed in the expected sequence "by special order and commandment", presumably of the trial judges.
After having convicted and sentenced to death three witches, Bromley may have been keen to avoid any suspicion of credulity by presenting his "masterful exposure" of the evidence presented by Grace Sowerbutts, before turning his attention back to the remainder of the Pendle witches.
Modern interpretation
Potts declares that "this Countie of Lancashire ... now may lawfully bee said to abound as much in Witches of divers kinds as Seminaries, Jesuites, and Papists", and describes the three accused women as having once been "obstinate Papists, and now came to Church".
The judges would certainly have been keen to be regarded by King James, the head of the judiciary, as having dealt resolutely with Catholic recusants as well as with witchcraft, the "two big threats to Jacobean order in Lancashire".
Samlesbury Hall, the family home of the Southworths, was suspected by the authorities of being a refuge for Catholic priests, and it was under secret government surveillance for some considerable time before the trial of 1612.
It may be that JP Robert Holden was at least partially motivated in his investigations by a desire to "smoke out its Jesuit chaplain", Christopher Southworth.
The English experience of witchcraft was somewhat different from the European one, with only one really mass witch hunt, that of Matthew Hopkins in East Anglia during 1645.
That one incident accounted for more than 20% of the number of witches it is estimated were executed in England between the early 15th and mid-18th century, fewer than 500.
The English legal system also differed significantly from the inquisitorial model used in Europe, requiring members of the public to accuse their neighbours of some crime, and for the case to be decided by a jury of their peers.
English witch trials of the period "revolved around popular beliefs, according to which the crime of witchcraft was one of ... evil-doing", for which tangible evidence had to be provided.
Potts devotes several pages to a fairly detailed criticism of the evidence presented in Grace Sowerbutts' statement, giving an insight into the discrepancies which existed during the early 17th century between the Protestant establishment's view of witchcraft and the beliefs of the common people, who may have been influenced by the more continental views of Catholic priests such as Christopher Southworth.
Unlike their European counterparts, the English Protestant elite believed that witches kept familiars, or companion animals, and so it was not considered credible that the Samlesbury witches had none.
Grace's story of the sabbat, too, was unfamiliar to the English at that time, although belief in such secret gatherings of witches was widespread in Europe.
Most demonologists of the period, including King James, held that only God could perform miracles, and that he had not given the power to go against the laws of nature to those in league with the Devil.
Hence Potts dismisses Sowerbutts' claim that Jennet Bierley transformed herself into a black dog with the comment "I would know by what means any Priest can maintain this point of Evidence".
He equally lightly dismisses Grace's account of the sabbat she claimed to have attended, where she met with "foure black things ... not like men in the face", with the comment that "The Seminarie [priest] mistakes the face for the feete: For Chattox [one of the Pendle witches] and all her fellow witches agree, the Devill is cloven-footed: but Fancie [Chattox's familiar] had a very good face, and was a proper man."
It is perhaps unlikely that the accused women would have failed to draw the examining magistrate's attention to their suspicions concerning Grace Sowerbutts' motivations when first examined, only to do so at the very end of their trial when asked by the judge if they had anything to say in their defence.
The trial of the Samlesbury witches in 1612 may have been "largely a piece of anti-Catholic propaganda", or even a "show-trial", the purpose of which was to demonstrate that Lancashire was being purged not only of witches, but also of "popish plotters".
Bromley achieved his desired promotion to the Midlands Circuit in 1616.
Potts was given the keepership of Skalme Park by King James in 1615, to breed and train the king's hounds.
In 1618, he was given responsibility for "collecting the forfeitures on the laws concerning sewers, for twenty-one years".
Jane Southworth's eldest son, Thomas, eventually inherited his grandfather's estate of Samlesbury Hall.

It is one of the world's greatest anti-war paintings.
It is a very large painting (a mural) which shows the bombing of the Spanish town of Guernica in 1937 during the Spanish Civil War.
The Spanish Republican government asked Pablo Picasso to paint a large mural for an art exhibition in Paris.
It shows how people, as well as animals, all suffer because of the tragedies of war.
The painting soon became so famous that it was seen as a world symbol for peace.
The fame of the painting helped to bring the Spanish Civil War to an end.
Guernica is navy blue, black and white, 3.5 metre (11 ft) tall and 7.8 metre (25.6 ft) wide, a mural-size canvas painted in oil.
It hangs in the Museo Reina Sofía in Madrid.
Guernica shows a large, open room with people and animals who are suffering.

A horse falls in terrible pain as it dies after being run through with a spear.
A dead soldier lies under the horse, his arm has been chopped off, but the hand grasps a shattered sword from which a flower grows.
A light bulb shines strongly like an evil eye (the Spanish word for "light bulb" is "bombilla" which sounds like "bomb").
A female figure floats in, holding a lamp which is a symbol of hope.
There are many other smaller details in the painting.
History of the painting
The painting soon travelled to many countries.
It was seen in several towns in the United States during the 1940s and early 1950s.
The Spanish dictator Francisco Franco wanted it to come to Spain, but Picasso said that he would not allow it to go to Spain until Spain became a democratic country.
Picasso died in 1973.
Franco died in 1975 and Spain became a democratic country.
The painting went to Spain in 1981 and it now hangs in an art gallery, the Museo Reina Sofía, in Madrid.

The Flat Earth Society (or the International Flat Earth Research Society) is an organization claiming that the Earth is flat (most of us think it is round; a sphere).
It was started by Samuel Shenton in 1956.
Charles K. Johnson was the leader and made his home the organization's base.
The Flat Earth Society is thought to have disbanded (stopped existing) after Johnson's death in 2001, but some websites still use the organization's name.
Some people say NASA proved that the Earth is not flat by taking pictures of the planet from space.
Others say the round Earth was proven long before NASA existed.
The Society says the pictures are fake, and that NASA is a part of a conspiracy.

Balibo is an Australian movie directed by Robert Connolly and released in 2009.
It starred Australian actor Anthony LaPaglia who also was the film's producer.
It based on the true story of 5 Australian news reporters working for Australian TV during the Indonesian invasion of East Timor in 1975.
They were murdered by the Indonesian army in the small village of Balibo.
The movie was finally forbidden in Indonesia by the Film Censorship Agency.
Foreign Minister Marty Natalegawa said the ban was to avoid a negative image of Indonesia.
The Indonesian National Armed Forces supports the ban, with a spokesman saying the official version of the event is that the journalists were killed in a crossfire, and not murdered by Indonesian troops.
However, this did not stop people from seeing the movie, as there were some secret cinemas set up to show it.

Saint Jude the Apostle was one of the Twelve Apostles of Jesus.
He was also called Jude of James and Jude Thaddeus.
He is the patron saint of Armenia, along with Saint Bartholemew.

A pitcher plant is a carnivorous plant (also called as Insectivorous plant).
Carnivorous plants are plants that eat insects and other small animals.
Carnivorous plants grow in soil that has little nitrogen.
All living things must have nitrogen.
Carnivorous plants get nitrogen from the insects they eat.
The pitcher of the pitcher plant is actually a modified leaf.
The apex of the leaf is the lid.
Pitcher plants catch (get) insects in a cup of liquid.
The walls of the cup make nectar (sweet liquid) .
The nectar attracts insects.
When an insect lands on the wall, it falls down into the liquid.
The insect cannot get out of the cup because the walls are smooth and slippery and the walls have hairs pointing down.
After the insect is dead, its body rots.
Rotting releases (lets loose) the nitrogen from the insect's body.
The nitrogen then goes into the liquid and the plant takes in the nitrogen from the liquid.
Fried Green Tomatoes is a 1991 American drama movie directed by Jon Avnet.
It is set in 1920s and 1980s Birmingham, Alabama and is based on a novel by Fannie Flagg called Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe.
The movie stars Kathy Bates, Jessica Tandy, Mary-Louise Parker and Mary Stuart Masterson.
In Birmingham, Alabama, a woman called Evelyn goes to a nursing home to visit her mother-in-law and meets an elderly woman called Ninny.
Ninny tells Evelyn stories about when she was younger, and about the people she used to know.
In particular, she tells Evelyn about two young women, Idgie and Ruth.
In Ninny's stories, Idgie and Ruth are friends who run a café together and raise Ruth's son Buddy.
Ruth has separated from her husband Frank because he used to hit her.
One day, Frank goes missing and the police begin to think that Idgie has killed him.
Ninny tells Evelyn her stories over several visits.
During that time, Evelyn, who was depressed,  is inspired by Ruth and Idgie to have more power in her life.
In the end, Ninny goes to live with Evelyn and her husband.
There is a hint that Ninny and Idgie might be the same person.

Differences from the novel
There are some differences between the movie and the novel it was made from.
In the novel, Idgie and Ruth are a lesbian couple.
In the movie they may be just friends.
The director, John Avnet said that he wanted viewers to make up their own minds.
In one part of the movie, Idgie and Ruth have a food fight.
Avnet said that the food fight is symbolic of love-making.
When it was released, some critics and LGBT activists were angry that the lesbian part of the story had been "glossed over".
Even though the lesbian content had been hidden, the movie won an award from the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) for best feature movie with lesbian content.
Another difference is that at the end of the movie, it seems possible that Ninny is really Idgie.
In the novel, they are completely separate characters and are sisters-in-law.

Ischemic colitis (also called Colonic ischemia) is a medical condition in which inflammation and injury cause an inadequite blood supply to the large instestine.
It occurs more often in older people.
In fact, more than 90% of cases occur in people over the age of 60.
Ischemic colitis is the most common form of bowel ischemia.
Lower digestive bleeding
Fever higher than 100.4°F (38°C)
Most cases of ischemic colitis are mild and will get better on their own.
IV fluids are givin to patients to treat dehydration.
Patients are also told not to eat or drink anything until the symptoms get better.
Severe ischemic colitis that leads to gangrene can be treated with antibiotics and surgery.
Hypotension is low blood pressure.
A person with low blood pressure is called hypotensive.
Everybody's blood pressure is different.
Some people have naturally low blood pressure.
However, for most adults, a systolic blood pressure of under 90, or a diastolic blood pressure of under 60, is low blood pressure.
(Systolic is the top number in a blood pressure reading; diastolic is the bottom number.)
Low blood pressure is not always dangerous.
However, low blood pressure is dangerous if it causes any of these symptoms:
Feeling dizzy
Fainting (this is called syncope)
If the blood pressure gets even lower, or the person faints, when they stand up (this is called orthostasis or orthostatic hypotension).
This means that the blood pressure is so low that it cannot get blood to the brain when the person is standing up.
Pale, cold, clammy skin (this is called diaphoresis).
This is a sign that the body is in trouble, and is using its natural defense strategies to try to fix a problem.
Being unable to think or focus on something
Feeling tired or depressed
Feeling very thirsty (this happens when low blood pressure is caused by dehydration, meaning the person has not drunk enough fluids.
The body senses this and gets thirsty so the person will drink more)
Quick, shallow breathing (this is a sign that the body is not getting enough blood and oxygen, and is trying to take in more oxygen by breathing faster)
What problems can low blood pressure cause?
If a person's blood pressure is very low, the heart will be unable to pump blood and oxygen to important parts of the body.
Every part of the body needs blood and oxygen to live.
Without blood and oxygen, important parts of the body, like the heart and brain, can be damaged.
If a person's blood pressure is low enough that they are feeling dizzy, they should lay down on the ground.
Putting their feet up, or bending their knees, is also helpful.
This makes it easier for blood and oxygen to get to the brain (because the blood does not have to work against gravity to get up to the brain, like it would if the person were standing).
Lying down will also make sure that the person does not hurt themselves by falling if they faint.
Doctors can treat hypotension by treating whatever is causing the low blood pressure.
Sometimes, low blood pressure is caused by dehydration.
This can be treated by having the patient eat more salt, drink more fluids, or (in serious cases) get fluids through a needle placed into a vein.
There are also medications that increase blood pressure.
They work by making it harder for blood vessels to relax.
(When blood vessels relax, blood pressure goes down.
If the blood vessels cannot relax as easily, blood pressure goes up.)
A Race condition (also called race hazard) is a problem with the design of a system.
With a race condition, the result of a calculation or the behaviour of the system as a whole is dependent on how long a certain calculation takes, or when it is started.
Race conditions occur in logic circuits and computer software, especially with multi-threaded or distributed systems.
A computer program is like a horse race.
The computer program does several things at the same time, similarly to how several horses run at the same time in a horse race.
Each horse represents what is usually called a thread of execution.
That way, one such thread may handle network communication, another one may be responsible for redrawing the user interface.
In the case of a race condition, the application works properly if a given horse wins the race.
For example, the application may work if horse number five wins, but it will crash if any other horse wins the race.
One solution to the problem is to use synchronization.
This is like several jockeys teaming up, to make sure horse number five is ahead.
On different computers, or in different situations, computers programs can run at different speeds.
Sometimes, they will be faster, other times slower.
This may mean that on some systems, the race condition will never show up, even though it may be easy to show it on others.
Race conditions can be difficult to find.
Bugs caused by race conditions are a frequent source of frustration within the profession of software development.

The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) is an American group that works to make sure that LGBT are not made to look bad in the media, and works so that the public are more accepting of LGBT people.
It was founded in 1985 in New York City  after there were a lot of negative reports about LGBT people, after the beginning of the AIDS epidemic.
Their policies are for the freedom to be homosexual and not be judged.
The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation was started in 1985 in New York City.
After the start of the AIDS epidemic, several newspapers, like the New York Post wrote reports that some people thought were homophobic and unfair.
The Alliance was founded to protest against such negative coverage in the media.
Because of this, a group of people decided to band together and begin a group to change things.
They were Vito Russo, Gregory Kolovakos, Darryl Rist, Allen Barnett and Jewelle Gomez.
They named their group the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation.
At first they were more concerned with changing the way that stories about AIDS were reported to the public.
As the group grew, they began to work with people in the entertainment industry to change the way that gay and lesbian people were made to look on films and on television.
Every year, GLAAD hosts a ceremony where GLAAD Media Awards are given to people in the media and in entertainment that have represented LGBT people and issues fairly.
Since 2009, there have been three ceremonies every year, one each in New York City, Los Angeles, and San Francisco.
