At the opposite end of the spectrum are those hastily-compiled sequels whose sole purpose is to serve as a stepping stone between the original film and its (presumed) third installment. X2: X-Men United, the long-awaited sequel to 2000s X-Men, is a prime example of such lesser-caliber sequels.
This is not to say that X2, based on Marvels X-Men comics, does not retain some of the integrity established by its original cinematic counterpart. The entire cast of X-Men returns for the sequel, along with several credible newcomers (namely, Alan Cumming as the special-effects-driven Nightcrawler). No X-Men movie would be complete without the wisecracking, devil-may-care Hugh Jackman as the surly Wolverine or without Ian McKellen as the sophisticated villain Magneto. Director Bryan Singer has, at least, managed to cast his film with finesse.
X2 runs for an uncomfortable 135 minutes and, following the lead of the first film, depicts humans and mutants pitted against one another in a battle for humanitys upper-hand. Brian Cox steps in as the newest bad-guy a mutant-hating, senior military man bent on destroying the X-Men from inside their inner-circle and wields the role of the antagonist well (Cox once again displays the evil persona he exhibited as the original Hannibal Lecter in 1986s Manhunter). In doing so, Cox has usurped McKellens role as the X-Mens primary opponent. But rest assured, Magnetos villainous streak appears to be far from over.
The biggest problem with X2 is that it lacks any substantial plot development. Character introductions are surprisingly brief, and many aspects of the films story are resolved with little exposition. The characters shifting alliances are easily foreseen, and the films climax is more than predictable. Make way for X3.
With an all-star cast and the pervading popularity of X-Men riding in its wake, one would expect more from the much-hyped X2. The problem with a comic book-based plot and a cast of over 12 primary characters, however, is that true depth of story is difficult to achieve. Ian McKellen has little screen time during which he can flex the theatrical genius he has displayed in previous projects, and Halle Berrys talents are too often hidden behind her superhero guise.
The abundance of special effects spread throughout X2 lends the film its only true entertainment value. Nightcrawlers instantaneous transporting is fluidly depicted in the blue, smoke-like plumes of his fleeting aura, and Deathstrikes knive-like nails paired against Wolverines retractable steel claws makes for a nasty, highly-watchable battle.
X2 has all of the elements it needs to break into the superior sequel category, but fails to do so. Perhaps with more character development and more solidity of plot the film could have succeeded where it was destined to fail.
And, lets face it, a few more shots of Hugh Jackman wearing nothing but his metal dog-tag necklace couldnt have hurt.

Published Reviews
This book is one volume from the highly regarded Case Review Series covering several radiology subspecialties. The aim of the series is to educate the reader via core knowledge question-and-answer case studies.
Perhaps the most noticeable feature of this book is the outstanding quality of the ultrasound images, all of which appear to have been acquired using top of the range systems.
I can thoroughly recommend this book, not just for departments training junior radiologists, but for any department carrying out the full range of non-obstetric ultrasound imaging. As a test for its target audience, I asked the opinion of some of our specialist registrars, and all found it to be extremely useful and informative. It will be of equal value to consultant radiologists and to trainee sonographers.

Check out this slideshow of images from round 1 of the Masters
More players wore FootJoy shoes than any other shoe brand at this year's Masters.
The Masters really gets underway on Wednesday with most players squeezing in one more early practice round before the Par 3 tournament tees off in the afternoon. Click on the slideshow below to see what FootJoy players have been wearing early in the week and let us know what you think in the Comments section.
Click here to begin the slideshow.:
Can you guess which player was seen Wednesday wearing these MyJoys with the new camo pattern?
We are all excited the new FootJoyBlog.com is up and running. One of the biggest proponents of adding this feature was Jim Connor, President of FootJoy. We will be adding periodic features with Jim and many other FootJoy staffers to give you a closer look at the brand. Enjoy!
Click on the picture above to hear Jim's welcome message.
Spring is here and golf's first major is upon us. Players have made the historic drive from Washington Road to Magnolia Lane and are ready to tee it up. And just as the best players in the world have prepared their games, FootJoy has prepared some slick styles especially for Augusta. The patterns may look familiar, but we've incorporated a special green that will let our FJ players feel right at home on arguably the most hallowed grounds in golf.
While it's never a guarantee if or when they'll wear these in competition, keep an eye out for many FootJoy players sporting special green and white shoes during the year's first major. Check the names on the shoe tags to get an idea of who you might see wearing these beauties. We've also got some nice MyJoys (green and white, of course) making the trip to the Masters. Be sure to visit that slideshow on the blog as well.

Dear ClosetDashers,
It's with a sad heart that after 2 years of helping women swap their fashions I have decided to close down ClosetDash. Our last day of online business will be June 15, 2014 after which our site will no longer be available. The decision to close was not an easy one at all, but ultimately came down to personal and financial reasons.
For those in the NYC area, we will be hosting a 1 day liquidation sale of our entire inventory on Tuesday June 17th from 3-7pm at our warehouse located at NY Designs at 45-50 30th Street 7th Floor in Long Island City. All pieces will be 75% off.
Thank you for the support over the years and we hope you continue to swap your closets with other companies that offer similar services.

Crime Stoppers are offering a reward up to $1,000 for information leading to the arrest of a person who left a bomb threat written in a bathroom last Thursday at Neuqua Valley High School.
Part of the school was placed on "soft lockdown" around 11:30 a.m. after the bomb threat was discovered written on the wall of a restroom, according to release from Crime Stoppers.
"It's still under investigation at this point," Sgt. Bill Davis said Friday of the hoax that disrupted classes for just over 90 minutes for some students and faculty members at the school at 2360 95th St.
An unknown number of classrooms were affected by the emergency, with dozens of students and their teachers relocated to the school's auditorium.
The threat was specific to a certain area of the school, according to the release.
Police K-9 units were sent to the campus to search for explosives and other contraband. The last police car left the area about 2 p.m., Davis said.
Davis would not discuss the content of the threat.
Janet Buglio, executive director of communication services for Indian Prairie School District 204, would not disclose such details as the location of the restroom in question or the number of students, teachers and others affected by the situation.
"As you know, we are unable to comment on an ongoing police investigation," Buglio said Friday in an email.
"Parents were notified that the Naperville police lifted the soft lockdown with a phone call from the school at approximately 1:10 p.m. (Thursday)," Buglio said. "The school day returned to normal at that time."
Anyone with information about the threat or the suspect can call Crime Stoppers at (630) 420-6006.

Information Credit Associated Press/Pat Eaton-Robb
A small house in Bristol, Conn. is unveiling new ties and clues in the case against former New England Patriot Aaron Hernandez.
The cape-style home at 114 Lake Avenue is owned by Hernandez's uncle, and located nearby to where Hernandez grew up. Although Hernandez was never reported to have lived there, two of his friends did. According to police, those two friends – Ernest Wallace and Carlos Ortiz - were with Hernandez the night Odin Lloyd was killed and came back to the house after the shooting.
The owner of the home, Hernandez's uncle, is also the father of Hernandez's cousin Tanya Singleton, who had been living there. She was sent to jail for criminal contempt after prosecutors say she refused to testify on evidence which has led to the murder indictment against Hernandez.
Singleton and her husband, Thaddeus Singleton, were in the circle of friends including Hernandez, Ortiz, and Wallace. Thaddeus Singleton died in a car accident June 30, and at the time was facing heroin trafficking charges in South Carolina. A relative of Thaddeus Singleton, John Alcorn, is the possible owner of the gun found in a car after it crashed in Springfield, Mass.
Tanya Singleton was once married to Jeffrey Cummings, who also had a criminal record in Bristol; he later divorced her and married Hernandez's mother Terri. They divorced after he was charged with assaulting her.
Inside the Lake Ave. home police found 100 cartridges of ammunition. They also found the SUV they'd been looking for in connection to the 2012 fatal shooting near a Boston night club. That SUV was rented in Hernandez's name.

It breaks my heart that William Joyce lost his daughter. She was only 18 when she died. Though "technically" an adult, she was Mr. Joyce's little girl. Whom he created the Guardians stories for when she asked if Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny knew each other. This story may never have come to be if not for her simple childhood wonder and she was never even able to see the movie that has now touched thousands.
I think she should share in the thanks for helping to inspire such a beloved story we have quickly come to cherish.
Rest in Peace Mary Katherine. The Guardians are watching over you.

How to create SweetFX-style shaders that don't affect the HUD with Durante's GeDoSaTo
In 2012, Peter "Durante" Thoman wrote the popular mod DSfix for Dark Souls: Prepare to Die on PC. In April 2014, he wrote a series of articles for PC Gamer about modding Dark Souls 2.
About 3 months ago, at the same time as the PC release of Dark Souls 2, I released a new tool called GeDoSaTo. At first, it primarily focused on offering a set of graphical enhancement for DS2, but also supported downsampling in a limited set of DirectX 9 games. Since then, its scope and applicability have expanded greatly. Dark Souls 2 is now just one plugin rather than the main focus.
And this is where this article comes in—it is not necessary to know any programming to make significant enhancements to specific games, thanks to the power of the generic plugin. The generic plugin offers all the widely popular functionality of injectors such as SweetFX—SMAA injection, high quality tone mapping, HDR effects, color, contrast, sharpness and gamma adjustments and more—but better, as it allows you to target the application of those effects exactly to where they are needed, while not affecting UI elements or the HUD of games. This article will teach you how to use these capabilities in your own games, and walk through the entire process for Mass Effect 3.

Bundle: Find out where your neighbors spend their dining dollars.
For many, an empty restaurant is a suspicious restaurant. If it were good, the logic goes, people would be there. Eating. If it's desolate, there must be a reason. A critic's review has nothing on the reassurance delivered by a happily crowded dining room. So, where are the crowds?
Now there's a better way to find out: New data from Bundle, an MSN Money partner Web site, lets you see which restaurants truly command local dining dollars.
Apple's device is available for orders Friday. How to weigh early adoption.
This Deal of the Day comes from Kelli B. Grant at partner site SmartMoney.
Owning a cutting-edge gadget has a certain cool factor, but early adopters rarely get a great deal. Some observers say Apple's new iPad, available to pre-order Friday for an April 3 release, isn't likely to be an exception -- though there will probably be no shortage of shoppers wanting to go first.
Make a pre-emptive strike against being invited to another Tupperware/Princess House/etc. party.
This post comes from Trent Hamm at partner blog The Simple Dollar.
Awhile back, I wrote about the dangers of selling to friends and family. Recently, a reader wrote to me about wanting to make a "pre-emptive strike" against these kinds of sales pitches, but didn't know how to go about it.
Please feel free to copy and paste the following e-mail, edit it as you please, and send it to your friends. Trust me, almost all of them will thank you.
How is a time-share like a marriage? They're both easier to get into than out of.
This post comes from Stacy Johnson at partner site Money Talks News.
I've never owned a new car because I can't stand the thought of buying something that's going to drop in value by thousands of dollars the instant I own it.
But from what I learned while researching this story, buying a new car could be a smart purchase compared with a time-share. Why? Because time-shares can depreciate even faster.
One article argues that their attitudes are what's needed in a new economy, but another thinks they can't adapt.
The popular perception of Generation Y, or the millennials, those young people between 18 and 29, is that they're slackers, doomed by their own sense of entitlement and a bad economy to life in their parents' basements because they can't adapt to the reality of the marketplace.
But an article by Nancy Cook of Newsweek.com suggests that millennials' attitudes will serve them well in this depressed economy and that they may actually be better at navigating the new economy.
Phony group claims that $1.3 billion of Madoff money was found in a hideout in Malaysia.
This post comes from partner site ConsumerAffairs.com.
Scammers apparently targeted victims of Bernie Madoff with a phony Web site that mimicked the Web site of the Securities Investor Protection Corp., the SIPC said.
The so-called "International Securities Investor Protection Corporation" solicited Madoff victims to submit claims, which could result in phishing or other identify theft problems, according to the SIPC.
One section of the Web site included a supposed testimonial from a Madoff victim who claimed to have received funds from the organization.
Citibank now wants a big fat annual fee, but dropping that credit card will damage her credit score.
This guest post comes from Andrea at Fools and Sages.
Have your credit cards started adding annual fees yet? Not the ones you use -- that would be silly. The banks will gouge you in other ways for those. I'm talking about the ones that you don't use.
It turns out that maintaining those cards is a pricey venture for the poor, downtrodden banks.
I received notice from Citibank last week that a card I haven't used in, oh, seven years will begin having a $60 annual fee starting April 1. The only way for me to avoid this fee is to use the card, to the tune of about $200 per month in charges.
That's not that much and I could actually easily wrangle a way to do it, except that I don't want to. Our family is trying to whittle down credit cards, not add usage. But closing this particular card down would be particularly damaging to my credit score.
Some of that stuff you want to get rid of may be worth more than you think.
This Deal of the Day comes from Kelli B. Grant at partner site SmartMoney.
Done right, de-cluttering during spring cleaning can yield more cash than just spare change found amid the couch cushions.
"We Americans are in love with our stuff, and we have way too much of it," says Gail Cunningham, a spokeswoman for the National Foundation for Credit Counseling. "If you haven't used it or worn it in a year, sell it." In addition to profiting from the sale, you may be able to cut costs to store and maintain items.
Before you sell, do a quick online search for the item, using the make, model and other identifiers as keywords, says Brandie Kajino, a professional organizer in Vancouver, Wash. It's not uncommon to undervalue a used or older item -- that is, after all, the entire premise of collectibles shows like "Antiques Roadshow."
Hosting a garage sale or setting up eBay listings is one way to clear things out, but there's no guarantee that you'll get top dollar. Before you resort to a big sale, try these tactics to profit:

By Alexander Monaghan President Following tonight's disappointing 5-2 loss to the New York Rangers, San Jose Sharks captain Joe Thornton felt the need to blow off steam.

Fisher Blinsided, Confused; Is He Right?

COEUR D'ALENE-- A Coeur d'Alene Police Lieutenant accused of falsifying timekeeping records is now being awarded $3.2 million.
The case started in 2008, and a jury ruled in Dan Dixon's favor last year. Wednesday's ruling may finally put this expensive case to rest.
Dixon was accused of falsifying timekeeping records and manipulating a subordinate's officer's schedule.
Investigators say he failed a polygraph test and was demoted two ranks from lieutenant to patrol officer.
He filed against the city alleging constructive discharge, breach of employment contract and several other allegations of wrong doing.
In a jury trial last year Dixon won and was awarded $3.7 million. The city fought the decision, asking for a new trial.
Wednesday the judge stuck with the jury's verdict, but dropped the award amount slightly. Dixon will receive $3.2 million.
Dixon's attorney says the family is happy with the new award amount.
No word yet on if the city will continue to fight the case.

Associate Professor
I have two main teaching roles at Augsburg and I enjoy them both. I enjoy my role teaching our "Search for Meaning" (Introduction to Religion) courses. I get to meet and learn from students representing all kinds of religious and non-religious points-of-view. Augsburg's diverse student community makes for an ideal setting for comparing and contrasting beliefs about life's meaning and purpose.
I also enjoy my role working with the many students who come to Augsburg interested in ministry and church work. As former camp-counselor, youth director, youth pastor, and youth-and-family pastor, I consider it a privilege to be a part of the biblical and theological formation of developing Christian leaders. One of my core interests is in the study of how the Word forms, guides, strengthens, challenges, and supports Christian communities. This core interest in the Word-That-Does-Stuff led to my involvement in writing for Crazy Talk and Crazy Book.

STUDY: Big Boozing Puts Marriage on the Rocks
(NEWSER) – 'Til booze do us part? A new study out of Norway says that drinking and marriage don't mix—especially if the woman is doing the heaviest drinking, reports the Los Angeles Times.
After looking at nearly 20,000 married couples, researchers found heavy-drinking couples had a divorce rate of 17.2%, versus 5.8% for light drinkers.
But the worst results came from couples in whichthe woman is a heavy drinker and the man is a light drinker—a sobering 26.8% of those marriages end in divorce. When the man is the heavy drinker, that rate is 13.1%. "Couples who intend to marry should be aware of the drinking pattern of their partner, since it may become a problem in the future," said a Norwegian health official.

As of Saturday, February 25, 2012
© Copyright 2014 Gwinnett Daily Post
LAWRENCEVILLE -- In any orderly society, traditional wisdom goes that a burgeoning population must skip hand-in-hand with burgeoning police forces. Gwinnett is no different, as police officials know.
The Gwinnett County Police Department serves roughly 86 percent of the county's 810,000 residents, following a recent annexation by the city of Norcross. They're authorized to maintain a ratio of 1.06 officer per 1,000 residents, but they're not there yet.
As in 2005, Gwinnett police have a current ratio of .99 officers per 1,000, though the department has swelled in the last seven years from 489 sworn personnel to 708, including recruits in the ongoing police academy, said Gwinnett police Assistant Chief Butch Ayers.
To maintain the target level, a population of 1 million would require nearly 400 more officers.
The Atlanta Regional Commission forecasts Gwinnett to crest the 1-million-resident mark in 16 years, based on the agency's Plan2040 study.
By the time 2028 rolls around, the majority of police precincts and headquarters in Gwinnett will have been updated or constructed anew in this century, at least. No department should be in the cramped straits Lawrenceville police endured recently, before they upgraded from their former car dealership offices. Part of their new headquarters was built to be empty, with growth in mind.
Funding from a penny sales tax approved by voters in 1997, 2001 and 2004 was used to renovate or construct new facilities for the five Gwinnett police precincts -- Central, Northside, Southside, Eastside and Westside -- and a headquarters building in Lawrenceville.
Three municipal police departments have been completed, or have broken ground on, state-of-the art police facilities meant to streamline operations. All have the penny tax to thank, in addition to -- in the case of Lawrenceville police -- more seedy revenue sources.
Suwanee police are aiming for greater visibility to accommodate a growing population.
Last year, the city of Suwanee purchased about one acre of blighted property near the Interstate 85 interchange that houses a vacant BP gas station, car wash and Waffle House to build a 7,000-square-foot police substation and training center. The project is under way.
"The new substation will provide 24/7 police visibility in the (Suwanee) Gateway," Suwanee police Chief Mike Jones said last year. "This facility will tell our citizens and visitors that safety in our community is a priority."
Suwanee purchased the property for $750,000. The construction budget for the substation and training center is about $1.6 million, which will be paid primarily through SPLOST funds.
Last January, Snellville police cut the ribbon on a 30,000-square-foot new headquarters.
After several years of planning and $6.5 million in SPLOST funds, the department moved out of its cramped, former Gwinnett utilities facility on Springdale Road. The new building more than tripled its size and put the department back in the heart of Snellville on Wisteria Drive.
Included is an in-house forensic lab (a first for Snellville police), outdoor kennels for K-9 units and a sally port (a secured garage that allows police vehicles to pull inside the building before removing suspects).
When Lawrenceville police unveiled their new $7.7 million headquarters on Jackson Street near downtown in 2010, they pointed to a silver lining of the heavy drug cartel involvement that's accompanied Gwinnett's growth -- seized drug assets.
At DEA Atlanta's headquarters last year, the department of about 70 officers received more than $2 million in drug-forfeiture proceeds, the fruits of a two-year cartel investigation dubbed "Operation Four Horsemen."
Metro Atlanta has gained the unsavory reputation as a primary distribution point for massive shipments of drugs smuggled from Mexico that cartel operatives hope to springboard to large East Coast markets. A vast interstate network and geographic proximity have added to the region's allure.
In 2010, DEA officials disbursed more than $8 million to five Georgia agencies, with Lawrenceville police getting the lion's share. Lawrenceville Police Chief Randy Johnson said his department regularly receives checks -- some as small as a few hundred dollars -- for its involvement with the multi-agency investigations.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WHAS11) -- The Shively library is getting ready to shut down for a makeover.
The library will close on Saturday and remain shut down during renovations, which are expected to be finished by April.
The project includes construction of a new library entrance, more public internet computers and better accessibility.
The library will also get new carpets, ceilings and paint.
"It's long overdue. We started with needing a new HVAC system and while we're at it, we've had lots of generous donations from Metro Council members and the city of Shively so we'll be able to do a lot more for the city here," Lisa Sizemore, Assistant Director of the Louisville Free Public Library, said.
The library will close at 5 p.m. on Saturday.
While construction is going on patrons are encouraged to visit the Iroquois, Southwest and Shawnee libraries.
Book drops at the Shively branch will remain open for customers who need to return books.

Over the past few years, there have been a number of horses seized due to hoarding amid deplorable conditions -- but several of the rescued horses are now making breaking into show business.
For many, the ticket to fame involves being in the right place at the right time. The same is true for the horses featured in a short film shot in Minnesota.
Many horse rescue groups have helped save the lives of malnourished animals and find them new homes. For neglected horses, many on the verge of starvation, the Truhaven Ranch is their last resort. Now, a group of those rescued horses have supporting roles in a classic western shot on location.
Conrad Flemming produced the short film "Three Card Draw" for the Z-Fest Film Festival. Despite the subtle visual effects, it's shot entirely in Winsted, Minn.
"There's one shot we had to edit just right because there was a vehicle driving by as we were filming," he said.
Flemming's mother operates Truhaven, and she was on board from the beginning because she felt it would be a rewarding experience for the animals.
"The horses get lots of extra attention and that's something really special," Candy Phillips said.
The film took nearly 6 months to complete and had almost no budget.
"The biggest challenge was getting actors who weren't used to riding … used to their horses," Flemming said.
Everyone from local actors and crew to horse wranglers volunteered for the production, including Director Mike Ascher.
"We've got a couple of loners in it. We've got somebody who's looking to make themselves better; we've got a bounty hunter," he said. "I'm really a big fan of the old westerns, and that's kind of what got me interested."
Four of the five horses featured in the film were rescued; however, they were not actually present during the gunshots thanks to some clever editing.
"You gotta have our gun fight," Flemming said. "It's only 7 minutes so we packed as much as we could into it."
The film will be one of 41 screened next Wednesday and Thursday at the Riverview Theater. More information can be found online here: http://www.z-fest.com/

An HP report suggests the reclusive country's cyberwarfare capabilities are rapidly making it a threat to Western systems.
As the Middle East country beefs up its cyberforces, Mojtaba Ahmadi, the head of its Cyber War Headquarters, is said to be found with two bullet wounds near his heart.
Britain's government will follow in the footsteps of the US and create a military unit dedicated to launching counter-attacks against hackers.
DARPA has tapped some of the biggest names in tech, design, and gaming in an aim to make taking down botnets as simple as a few swipes and taps.
For nearly a decade, think tanks and government officials in Washington D.C. have wrestled with the question of what cyberwar will look like. This year we found out.
The New York Times is reporting today, citing a host of sources, that the Obama administration pressed forward with Stuxnet's attack on Iran and has used cyberwarfare extensively.
New recruits will learn the basics, but officers and enlisted personnel could opt for a more advanced, undergraduate-level program.
The Pentagon has plenty of high-tech advances on tap for the coming year. Think drones, of course, but also laser weapons, cyberwarfare, and the ageless B-52.
The first new medal out of the Defense Department since the 1944 creation of the Bronze Star recognizes the growing importance of cyberwarfare and drone strikes.
The co-author of "The New Digital Age" talks with CBS News about ancient technology (IBM PCs, floppy disks) and more contemporary concerns, from copyrights to cyberwarfare.

(BLOG) – Well the madness is over. No I'm not talking about March Madness, I mean the madness that is Derby time in Louisville! Growing up outside of Kentucky I knew about the Derby and watched the race on television. What I never realized is that Derby time means so much more in the city of Louisville. Please enjoy some of my favorite photos from the week.
I attended the Great Bed Races, the Pegasus Parade and Oaks for work. I even got the chance to go to another event not associated with the Kentucky Derby Festival that featured a UK basketball player.
First up, the bed races. At first glance when I was assigned to cover the bed races I honestly thought it was some sort of horseracing term that I didn't know. When I did my research I found out that the bed races literally means that people race beds around!
When I arrived I saw dancers, cross-dressers and even Big Boy!
I also saw beds that were better looking than parade floats! I had a blast! I'm also happy to report that I did not suffer any injuries even though I was right in the middle of the race action on the floor and some of the beds were out of control.
The next event I attended was not associated with the Kentucky Derby Festival but I went as a loyal Kentucky basketball fan. Terrence Jones made an appearance at Wick's Pizza on Baxter Avenue
He greeted fans and then he showed off his musical abilities while rapping "Teach Me Bout Kentucky."
On Thursday I went to the Pegasus Parade. There I saw balloons and floats that rivaled the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade.
I also had the opportunity to watch Cyndi Lauper rehearse and then perform her classic "True Colours." She was very friendly to the local girls who were performing with her.
Friday was Oaks day and I got to take in all the sights and fashion that are the Kentucky Oaks. I enjoyed the creativity of some of the spectators.
Out of all the events associated with the Derby this was by far my favorite.
I did not make any Derby bets this year but I thoroughly enjoyed "the fastest two minutes in sports." I have decided to expand my horizons from just basketball and football to horseracing. Once I learn more about the sport I will be sure to bring you the latest updates. Thank you for reading.
About me: I graduated from the University of Kentucky with a degree in Broadcast Journalism and a minor in Communications. I've worked with ESPNU, UK Student News Network, LEX 18 and now I'm a web producer at WHAS11. I'm a loyal Kentucky Wildcats, Buffalo Bills, Minnesota Vikings and Los Angeles Lakers fan.

MADISON (WKOW) -- Despite its name, United Sportsmen of Wisconsin has no track record of providing training in hunting, fishing or trapping.
But on Thursday, the DNR-led Sporting Heritage Committee voted to recommend that the group receive $500,000 over the next two years to do just that. "It would provide $200,000 in the first fiscal year and $300,000 in the second fiscal year to a group that met specific specifications," said Scott Gunderson, DNR Executive Assistant.Those specifications are what several members of the public showed up at the meeting to complain about. "This was set up in such a way that it truly is only available to one organization and an organization that has been, at least until this moment, a political front-group and nothing more," said Anne Sayers, Program Director for Wisconsin League of Conservation Voters.
United Sportsmen has been very active in promoting and funding conservative political causes and candidates. Sayers says the grant is nothing more than a political favor slipped into the state budget and that Republican legislators purposely prevented other wildlife groups from applying for it. "And the real tragedy in that is that Wisconsin has dozens, if not more, organizations, hunting organizations that are ready right now to hit the ground running to implement the requirements of that grant," said Sayers.But DNR officials say United Sportsmen will be required to prove they are using the money the way its intended."We'll make sure that's very clear," said Gunderson. "And we'll also ask for an annual review of what they've done.""I would feel a whole lot more comfortable if it was actually written into law that they would review it every two years," said Sayers.
Right now... There is no such requirement... Meaning united sportsmen could receive this grant every two years without re-applying for it.
DNR Secretary Cathy Stepp gave final approval to the grant late Thursday afternoon. Stepp says she plans to insert specific language into the grant contract to ensure United Sportsmen meets the DNR's expectations.
MADISON (WKOW) -- Wisconsin's Sporting Heritage Committee gave its approval to award a $500,000 grant to the United Sportsmen of Wisconsin Thursday morning, despite unanimous dissent from members of the public who testified at its meeting.
The grant authorizes the state to give the money to United Sportsmen so the group can promote and provide training for hunting and fishing in Wisconsin.
Controversy over the grant award arose after the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reported last weekend that United Sportsmen has close ties to several Republican state lawmakers and was the only group to apply for the grant. Groups such as the Wisconsin League of Conservation Voters say the grant application was set up so that only United Sportsmen could win it.
The Journal-Sentinel reports United Sportsmen has been active in both elections and lobbying over the past two years on behalf of conservative causes, but has no history of doing the kind of training called for in the grant.
The Sporting Heritage Committee voted 4-1 to approve the grant. That committee consists of two Republican lawmakers, a DNR official and two hunters selected by the DNR.
Capitol Bureau Chief Greg Neumann will have more on this story on 27 News at 6.

A wild car chase early Wednesday morning that began in Miami Beach and continued over a causeway into Miami left several robbery victims shaken but unharmed, and two men in custody.
Police say a plan hatched by Malcolm Burnett and Brandon Jenkins went awry from the start, when shortly after 3 a.m. they drove a red Kia sport utility vehicle up to a couple on Alton Road and 10th Street and tried to rob them.
Police believe Burnett got out of the car and approached the couple with a gun but was scared off when they started screaming.
So he jumped back into the truck, police said, and with Jenkins driving headed north a few blocks to Lennox Avenue and 14th Street. There, one of the men carrying a weapon, approached another man, police believe, who like the previous couple began yelling and scared away the would-be robbers.
"He also created a scene and starts running," said Miami Beach Detective Robert Hernandez.
Again, Burnett, 21 and Jenkins, 22, took off in the Kia. By then, however, both victims had called 911, alerting police who were able to set up a perimeter. They soon spotted the Kia crossing the Julia Tuttle Causeway toward the mainland.
Before the men crossed the causeway, Miami and Miami Beach police were waiting for them on Northeast 50th Street and Biscayne Boulevard in the MiMo area. When police tried to stop the car, the pair took off north on the boulevard with police in pursuit.
As the car turned west on 79th Street, Burnett bailed at Northeast Ninth Avenue. "But the car keeps going," Hernandez said.
Miami Beach police officers on foot soon captured Burnett. Jenkins crashed the Kia into a fence at Northwest 50th Street and 15th Court. He was captured after a brief foot chase.
The whole episode took about 45 minutes.
"Luckily, there were no injuries to anyone," Hernandez said.
At minimum, Hernandez said, the duo are facing carjacking and robbery charges, but other charges will likely be added. The Kia they were driving was carjacked in Miami-Dade County last week, Hernandez said, and county cops were still interviewing Burnett and Jenkins early Wednesday afternoon.

Montalvo Today
Since its conception, the Mediterranean-style house on the hill, as well as its general surroundings, has been known as Villa Montalvo. Now, the historic Villa and the 175-acre property it resides on are known as Montalvo Arts Center. The name reflects the growth, new direction and other general changes the organization has made in the past few years, including the addition of the Sally and Don Lucas Residency Program in October 2004. Montalvo is the one of the most distinguished arts organizations serving Silicon Valley and the extended San Francisco Bay Area as a center for creativity. Today, Montalvo presents outstanding performing arts programs for adults and children; concerts in the Carriage House Theatre, historic Villa, and the Lilian Fontaine Garden Theatre; exhibitions of exciting up-and-coming artists in Sculpture on the Grounds and the Project Space Gallery; and a wide range of innovative public programming.
Montalvo's History
Montalvo Arts Center was previously known as Villa Montalvo, a historic landmark built in 1912 by James Duval Phelan (1861-1930). Phelan, a passionate Californian who had been a three-term progressive mayor of San Francisco, went on to become California's first popularly-elected U.S. Senator. Villa Montalvo was Senator Phelan's favorite home and a center of artistic, political and social life in Northern California. Phelan invited leading writers and artists to Villa Montalvo to work on individual artistic projects in an environment rich in dialogue and fellowship. Jack London, Ethel Barrymore, Mary Pickford, Douglass Fairbanks, and Edwin Markham were among Phelan's many guests.
At his death, Senator Phelan was explicit in his bequest of Villa Montalvo. "I would like the property at Saratoga, California, known as Villa Montalvo, to be maintained as a public park open under reasonable restrictions, the buildings and grounds immediately surrounding the same to be used as far as possible for the development of art, literature, music, and architecture by promising students."
In 1930, the San Francisco Art Association assumed trusteeship of Villa Montalvo and within a year announced the intention to launch an artist residency program, the third program of its kind in the United States. In 1939, the Villa reopened to the public as an arts center with 10 artists in residence and a small gallery in the Villa. At the official opening, Dr. Stephen Pepper, head of the art department at the University of California stated, "Through the cooperation of artists and the community, Montalvo in its silence and beauty - will become one of the creative forces of the world."
Following World War II, a shift in priorities for the SFAA left many local citizens concerned about the future of Villa Montalvo. These citizens joined together to form the Montalvo Association, and in October 1953 trusteeship of the villa was turned over to that organization where it remains today.
For over 75 years, Montalvo has served the community as a center for creativity, offering art courses, performing arts events, gallery exhibitions, educational opportunities, artist residencies and more. Today, Montalvo and its arts programs serve nearly 200,000 visitors each year.
The name "Villa Montalvo" is a reference to popular 16th-century Spanish writer Garcia Ordonez de Montalvo, who coined the name "California". In one of his fables, he described an island rich with gold and jewels, peopled by Amazons whose queen was Califia. On this storybook island of California, Montalvo's Amazons rode griffins, the mythical winged guardians of precious treasure. Griffins can still be found throughout the Montalvo grounds, standing guard over one of California's true precious treasures. The property was officially renamed "Montalvo Arts Center" in January 2005 to better represent the mission and offerings of the space.
