William Sanford "Bill" Nye (born November 27, 1955), popularly known as Bill Nye the Science Guy, is an American science educator, comedian, television presenter, actor, writer, scientist, and former mechanical engineer, best known as the host of the Disney/PBS children's science show Bill Nye the Science Guy (1993–1998) and for his many subsequent appearances in popular media as a science educator.
Nye was born on November 27, 1955, in Washington, D.C., to Jacqueline (née Jenkins; 1921–2000), a codebreaker during World War II, and Edwin Darby "Ned" Nye (1917–1997), also a World War II veteran, whose experience without electricity in a Japanese prisoner-of-war camp led him to become a sundial enthusiast. His maternal grandmother was French, from Dancevoir.
After attending Lafayette Elementary and Alice Deal Junior High in the city, he was accepted to the private Sidwell Friends School on a partial scholarship and graduated in 1973. He studied mechanical engineering at Cornell University (where he took an astronomy class taught by Carl Sagan) and graduated with a B.S. in mechanical engineering in 1977. Nye occasionally returns to Cornell as a guest-lecturer of introductory-level astronomy and human ecology classes.
Joseph Frank "Buster" Keaton (October 4, 1895 – February 1, 1966) was an American actor, director, producer, writer, and stunt performer. He was best known for his silent films, in which his trademark was physical comedy with a consistently stoic, deadpan expression, earning him the nickname "The Great Stone Face". Keaton was recognized as the seventh-greatest film director by Entertainment Weekly. In 1999, the American Film Institute ranked Keaton the 21st greatest male star of Classic Hollywood Cinema. Critic Roger Ebert wrote of Keaton's "extraordinary period from 1920 to 1929, [when] he worked without interruption on a series of films that make him, arguably, the greatest actor-director in the history of the movies". His career declined afterward with a dispiriting loss of his artistic independence when he was hired by MGM, which resulted in a crippling alcoholism that ruined his family life. He recovered in the 1940s, remarried, and revived his career to a degree as an honored comic performer for the rest of his life, earning an Academy Honorary Award in 1959.
Today's #TuesdaysWithBill question deals with the unending conflict between science and religion. How does someone who has grown up indoctrinated with religious thinking break the old mold and learn to embrace science and reason? It's important to adopt a critical approach to life and familiarize oneself with skeptical thinking. Stick to the facts. Evaluate claims. Judge for yourself whether the things people say are truly steeped in reason, or if it's all just wool over your eyes. These mindsets take time and effort to develop, so don't get discouraged if you don't become a totally rational, skeptical thinker on day 1. All that said, there is one thing Bill cannot stress enough though: Do not confuse skepticism with cynicism. Do you want to ask Bill a question for a future "Tuesdays wi...

The original Kingston Trio of Dave Guard, Bob Shane, and Nick Reynolds perform the second cut from their fifth studio album, "String Along," which was also the fifth consecutive studio album by the Trio to hit #1 on the "Billboard" charts and to be awarded a gold record. The song details the release of John Webb, a printer and mint-master, who with Bill Tenor was jailed in Massachusetts around 1730 for passing bad bank notes. Ironically, Webb's self-printed notes were for a time more trusted than Massachusetts Bay colony notes, which explains why Webb's jail break (accomplished when some of his friends sprang Tenor, who as the song reports used his massive strength to free Webb) was hailed in the colony as a kind of pre-Revolutionary blow for freedom. There has long been confusion ab...
Before Edgar Wright and Wes Anderson, before Chuck Jones and Jackie Chan, there was Buster Keaton, one of the founding fathers of visual comedy. And nearly 100 years after he first appeared onscreen, we’re still learning from him. Today, I’d like to talk about the artistry (and the thinking) behind his gags.

Now the time has elapsed
It inevitably has come to pass
That I write for you at last a song, a rhyme
Oh, to tell you the truth of it
I?m a little confused myself
Is it through memory?s rose tinted glass?
I have come to ask
Or is it a love that was meant to last
Through time itself?
Proving us wrong all along
Shouldn?t we be holding on
It?s a silly thing really that you shouldn?t believe in
Nothing too complicated
Endlessly formulated
Foolish romantic ideals of love
Could there be such a thing?
How could there be such a thing?
As beautifully flawed
We?ll make mistakes and then
Life is the art of
Learning to live with it through time
But you knew it all along
You who, wiser than I
See it coming, see it coming
See it coming every time
How did you predict the end of the world
When you can?t see beyond the end of your nose?
Would you look at the life I chose?
Baby, it?s you I need to tell it to
Maybe, no other will ever do through time
Shouldn?t we be holding on?
Shouldn?t we be holding on?
Maybe, no other will ever do
Maybe, no other will ever do
Shouldn?t we be holding on?
Maybe, no other will ever do
Maybe, no other will ever do
Shouldn?t we be holding on?
Maybe, no other will ever do
Maybe, no other will ever do
Shouldn?t we be holding on?
Maybe, no other will ever do
Maybe, no other will ever do
Proving us wrong all along
Ideals of love
Foolish romantic
Ideals of love
Could there be such a thing?
Could there be such a thing?
