Have you checked out Mystic Warlords of Ka’a on Facebook yet? This week, be sure to watch out for a look at some of the infamous cards played in The Big Bang Theory and learn more about the factions! Remember, Warlord beats Troll, Troll beats Elf, Elf beats Water Sprite, and basically everything beats Enchanted Bunny…unless you have the Carrot of Power!

Kunal Nayyar tweets, "So excitesssss! Backstage @TheTalk_CBS... Cannot wait to hang with da ladies;) tune in 2PM ET 1PM PT/CT".

Just how powerful is the Jewel of Osiris? Find out by building a Sun Lords squad in the Mystic Warlords of Ka’on Facebook. The Sun Lords’ unyielding discipline is matched only by their limitless arrogance. Sound familiar?

Do you think the Water Nymph card has “puddles in all the right places”? Check out the other cards belonging to the Foxlings Faction in the Mystic Warlords of Ka’a Facebook Game and see if these forest dwellers prove to be cleverer than they appear. Anyone who underestimates the Foxlings is in for a rude surprise!

Casting News: Famed British theoretical physicist and cosmologist Stephen Hawking will stop by the University to share his beautiful mind with his most ardent admirer, Sheldon Cooper, on THE BIG BANG THEORY, Thursday, April 5. “When people would ask us who a ‘dream guest star’ for the show would be, we would always joke and say Stephen Hawking – knowing that it was a long shot of astronomical proportions,” said Executive Producer Bill Prady. “In fact, we’re not exactly sure how we got him. It’s the kind of mystery that could only be understood by, say, a Stephen Hawking.”
