Whatever happened to the son of Odin? If you were a bit miffed by Thor's absence from "Captain America: Civil War," you're in good company, because there's a short film that answers that very question.

Fundam with Tokyo's giant Gundam ...

In terms of Apple's products, however, Cook has largely taken a conservative approach, shepherding evolutionary changes to the existing product line (iPho...
