Sc’s Sci-Trek is currently broadcasting a series called “Breaking Time.”

The program talks about the elasticity of time and how it not only runs and flows, but also stretches and bends in space.

There’s time present, time past and future time. There’s also space time, with fantastic possibilities for time travel.

Both the Science and Discovery Channels have some great technology programs
to stretch your mind:

He was the brother of actor James Arness, the star of Gunsmoke, and starred as Jim Phelps in the TV series Mission: Impossible, one of my favorite shows from the 60′s.

The Internet Movie Database lists a huge filmography for Graves; he’s acted in more than 70 films, TV shows and made-for-TV movies.

One of my favorite funny films he starred in was Airplane! “We have clearance, Clarence.” “What’s our vector, Victor?”

Good Luck, Jim!

SXSW grows larger each year, with hundreds of panels and parties, plus the 13th Annual Web Awards, the ScreenBurn at SXSW Arcade, the Film and Interactive Trade Show and Exhibition, and also the Microsoft BizSpark Accelerator.

Gotta see it now because Interactive is over after the 16th, with Film running through the 20th, and Music lasting through the 21st.

Tips: travel light, say hello, introduce yourself and connect with people. Pick 2 or 3 “must-see” events, then just browse the conference and relax. Too many things are happening to try to do everything, so pace yourself.

We’ve already mentioned 2 iPhone apps:
SXSW Play helps you discover New Media
my.SXSW helps with Social Networking & Scheduling

Here’s another useful mobile site, sitby.us Find the panels & events you want to attend, create your personal schedule on your mobile, and see where your Twitter friends are sitting.

www.whose-line.com is devoted to a DVD Campaign to rally fans of the U.S. version of the show. The website is requesting fans of the show to write in to Warner Home Video, so the studio will release the other 200 shows on DVD.

Season 1, Volumes 1 & 2 are already out, along with a ‘Best Of; DVD.

The popular U.S. version of the British improvisational-comedy showcase features host Drew Carey with regular comedians Ryan Stiles, Colin Mochrie and Greg Proops (who also starred in the U.K. version with host Clive Anderson).

Our favorite is Wayne Brady, who does great impromptu singing bits. There’s a couple of other guests that rotate on and off the show, plus occasional celebrity stars like Robin Williams and Stephen Colbert.

One of our favorite episodes features guest Robin Williams.

Jason Felch and Geoff Boucher have put together a touching obituary and tribute to Art Clokey in latimesblogs.latimes.com/

I love pop culture so I just have to mention this as a tribute to such a lovable character I remember from childhood. In fact, Gumby and I were both born in the fifties, but he’s got more Facebook friends than I do.
