For the DFW Star Wars Fans

It’s now (or nearly so) and it’s happening right here at the Fort Worth Museum of Science and History. The first exhibition of its kind, Star Wars: Where Science Meets Imagination, combines costumes and props from all six Star Wars films with real-world technologies, video interviews with filmmakers, scientists and engineers, and two large Engineering Design Labs where visitors can build and test speeders and robots. Visitors will explore prototypes, learn about the engineers and designers who are creating new technologies, and discover intriguing similarities between how scientists and filmmakers think. Don’t miss this exhibit in its only scheduled Southwest appearance!

    Reminds me of a Southwest Airlines commercial – “Want to get away?”

    Following up on the report by Pro Football Talk that an NFL assistant coach accidentally forwarded a pornographic e-mail to a recipients list that included every league general manager, their secretaries, and even the commissioner…

    Pro Football Talk now reveals the name of the assistant coach in question:

    we believe it’s fair and appropriate to disclose that (via at least three NFL sources) the e-mail in question was inadvertently sent to multiple high-level team employees and their secretaries by offensive line coach Larry Zierlein of the Pittsburgh Steelers.
