How to Carve a Pumpkin That Will Look Incredible the Entire Halloween Season
Who would have thought to cut the jack-0'-lantern "lid" from the bottom?
Texas Museum of Broadcasting & Communications is an interactive museum preserving America's broadcast history from its earliest days. This is an amazing collection of broadcast paraphernalia with most of the items in working order. Gramophones, a phonograph invented by Edison, and an actual ESPN mobile bus filled with equipment that has filmed many historical events, broadcasting almost anything that moved and is, perhaps, the last surviving example.
Special Olympics Texas had an urgent request: Could TI retirees build and donate equipment modifications that would allow its athletes to compete in the upcoming Special Olympics Texas Summer Games next month in San Antonio?
The answer was a quick and resounding YES! A group of retirees who have volunteered with Texas Ramps assessed the need, figured out what was needed and got to work – recently turning out 20 soccer plows and 20 bowling/bocce ramps for Special Olympics athletes.
