Whoopi Goldberg has something to help her forget Theodore Rex, her new straight-to-video movie. She has agreed, for a rumored $6 million, to put her thoughts to paper. More musings than memoir, the unnamed work shouldn't upset those, like Ted Danson, who have made whoopee with the author in the past...
...supposed to be high on paleontologists' agenda, the immensity of C. saharicus does bear on dinosaur evolution, especially when it's put into context. Last fall paleontologists working in South America found a similarly huge carnivore, called Giganotosaurus, that was said to be a little larger than T. rex (in fact, the sizes of all three giants probably overlapped).

One implication, says Sereno: "I think we're looking at the Olympic...
...presumably quicker as well; the scientists named it Deltadromeus agilis, or "agile delta runner." A few days later, Sereno came up with an even more spectacular find: the skull of another meat eater whose head, at least, was a shade bigger than that of the 45-ft.-long Tyrannosaurus rex, traditionally considered the largest predator ever to have walked the earth...
Teaming up with Jim Clark, then chairman of Silicon Graphics and now at Netscape, Lincoln devised a plan to stuff the graphics-rendering power of a $90,000 SGI Reality Engine--the machine that created the T. rex in Jurassic Park--into a $250 box.

Sales of new video-game systems, which had dropped...
