While doing the PR rounds for his new movie "The Brothers Bloom", Rian Johnson (of "Brick" fame) talked a bit about his upcoming film "Looper", a time-travel story with, apparently, "lots of action" and violence. Although, Johnson is eager to point out, it's more of a character-based movie, and that the time-travel aspect will just be one part of it. Here's what he told SciFiWire: So how's Looper coming? Johnson: I just finished the first draft two days ago, and it's a first draft, so I'm now kind of just wandering around confused. No, I sent it out and showed it to some people, just kind of working on making a second draft. But it's way too soon to have any kind of perspective. But I had a great time during the writing process. It is so completely different than Bloom that it was refreshing. »

After the cult success of Rian Johnson's debut feature, the stylish high-school noir, Brick, A-list stars and a much bigger budget were sure to follow. The Brothers Bloom was filmed in a variety European and North American locations and things look fabulously bright and breezy on the big screen. While I didn't capital "L" love the picture, there is indeed a lot of interesting things going on and the film is certainly building a following. Furthermore, there are simply too few grifter pictures (see recent Twitch column on the subject) or classic on-the-road romances (think Charade or The African Queen) these days, even doing one is sort of retro in a way. The Brothers Bloom aims high for both. Back in April, I had the chance to sit down with Rian and it turned into a very enjoyable and casual chat that spanned a variety of topics from Ricky Jay to moleskin notebooks, »

With Brick, Rian Johnson established himself as a filmmaker to watch. An audacious debut, it made use of a classic film noir plotline within a contemporary high school setting, and helped establish Joseph Gordon-Levitt as a leading man. Now, Johnson's back with The Brothers Bloom, a globe-trotting con man movie starring Adrien Brody, Mark Ruffalo, and Rachel Weisz that hits theaters this week. In an interview with Rt, Johnson decided to select his five favorite con man movies of all time. He also talked about the script of his sci-fi project Looper, and explained why filmmakers are often con men »

#1: Paramount to finally release Carriers!
Àlex Pastor and David Pastor's Carriers is finally getting a theatrical release by Paramount Vantage on September 4, 2009. The great looking plague flick stars Lou Taylor Pucci, Chris Pine, Piper Perabo and Emily VanCamp. No doubt their decision to hold the film back has something to do with capitalizing on the Chris Pine buzz that will be around from Star Trek. Smart really. [via: Bloody-Disgusting]
#2: Kevin Macdonald takes on Romans and Asimov's "Eternity"
Kevin Macdonald has made a deal with New Regency to develop and direct "The End of Eternity" by Isaac Asimov. The "futuristic tale concerns a ruling class called Eternity whose members can manipulate time and alter history."
The State of Play director is also making "Eagle of the Ninth," a Roman military drama for Focus Features. [via: Variety]

We might still be patiently waiting for Rian Johnson's much delayed Brick follow-up Brothers Bloom, but that hasn't stopped him from talking about his future projects. And his next project? Looper, a science fiction flick about: "a huge financial collapse of some sort." And it will be: "really violent and dark." But just because it's Sf, doesn't mean it'll be going overboard on the gadgets. "It's not like Minority Report, we're not dealing with a ton of crazy technology....

Although Rian Johnson's follow up to Brick has yet to hit theaters (watch this opening), I'm already excited for his next film, a time travel sci-fi called Looper. That may be because I've seen The Brothers Bloom three times already and I absolutely love Rian Johnson, but anyway... The last time we wrote about Looper was in September of last year, right after Brothers Bloom had premiered at the Toronto Film Festival. A few small story details were revealed at the time, mainly that it would be "set in a present-day world in which a group of hitmen are sent their victims from the future." Sounds good, but how about some more details? As part of the Independent Film Festival Boston, SlashFilm's Dave Chen got to interview Johnson and they spent a few minutes chatting about Looper. First things first, contrary to the synopsis earlier, Johnson now says this »

He's How Old?
by Sparky
posted Jun 28 2016 10:30PM
Who cares! That's all I've been telling people as the Bucks 1
round selection Thon Maker has been the subject of many people questioning his age of 19 instead speculating he is actually 23.
Do I know if he is 19 or 23?
Do I choose to believe that a multi-million dollar organization did their homework on him and know his age?
Do I think that Excel Sports Agency who seemingly has a close relationship with the Bucks would lead them down a wrong path when it comes to Maker's age?
Do I think that Thon Maker is a better shooter coming out of the draft than Giannis was?
What role does Maker have with this team in the future?
Stretch 4/Center
Do I think that Maker can be a pivotal piece to a championship team in Milwaukee?
I'm not sure how you answered those questions, but if you answered them the same as me than why would you or anybody else be concerned about Thon Maker's age. Let's focus on Free Agency and avoiding Dwight Howard coming to the Bucks!! Go Bucks!!

Meet me at the Cue Club on Thursday!

This year's NBA Draft is coming up Thursday night and we'll be at Cue Club of Wisconsin in Waukesha doing the Milwaukee Bucks Draft Show from 6 to 11. We're honored to have former Badgers basketball player Marcus Landry joining us this year as a guest co-host with Mike Maxcy and myself.
I really don't have strong feelings this year on any one player that I think the Bucks MUST pick at 10. In years past, I normally fall in love with a player or two and really lobby hard for the Bucks to take them. This years draft really doesn't scream star players to me, now that doesn't mean that stars won't come out of this draft, but I just don't see it as of now. Lots of rumors about Bucks moving players like Middleton, Monroe, or MCW for picks in the draft Thursday night. If they were to make those trades, this team becomes even younger and I just can't believe that Jason Kidd wants to get even younger than they are already.
The new stadium opens in 2018 and there is a TON of pressure to be a winning team by that point and I just think it's a HUGE gamble to make these moves to add 2 or 3 rookies to this roster right now. Now having said all that, the thought of Jamaal Murray of Kentucky and Buddy Heild of Oklahoma being the starting backcourt this season really excites me! I'm fine waiting longer for this to develop but I don't have the pressure on me like the Bucks do with a new stadium on the horizon.
Pro Hoops Draft: What would Sparky do?
by Jim Morales
posted Jun 24 2015 4:42PM
Hey guys!
It's time for the NBA Draft on Thursday night at 6 and the Bucks have needs heading into the draft and free agency that begins on July 1
. The first need has to be to find a player that can play on the wing and hit a consistent jump shot that ranges out to three point land. Another need is to find a player or two that can bring a physical style of play inside when battling for baskets and rebounds. While this teams is long, it's certainly not all that physical and the Bucks have had problems against more physical teams. The center position must be upgraded at some point in the next couple of years if there will ever be hope of an NBA Championship in Milwaukee. I tend to believe this player will come to Milwaukee via free agency over the draft.
What Sparky would do in the draft
I'd explore trade options for Caron Butler, Tyler Ennis, OJ Mayo and Zaza Pachulia. If I could get draft pick compensation for any of these players, I'd move them.
The pick at number #17 for me would be either SG R.J. Hunter from Georgia State or SG Rashad Vaughn from UNLV.
In Hunter's case, his outside shooting and ability to pass from the SG position fills needs for the Milwaukee Bucks. Hunter didn't have a great year last year from beyond the arc and isn't the most athletic player you'll find at the SG position but I believe that outside shooting could be elite when given time to just focus on the game of basketball.
When talking about Rashad Vaughn all I can think of is 6
man of the year! He would be instant offense off the bench for a team that desperately needs scoring from its second unit. Vaughn is very young having only played one year of college basketball but in my mind that makes him an even better fit when it comes to this roster that is very young.
What Sparky thinks the BUCKS WILL DO in the NBA Draft
I believe that they will draft a PF to replace Ersan who they traded to the Detroit Pistons. The stretch four has become a popular thing in the NBA and the Bucks now currently don't have one. The player that they draft will be a bench player but will get a decent amount of minutes off the bench. I believe they will take the PF from Arkansas Bobby Portis at 17 if he's still on the board. Portis plays hard all the time, plays with an attitude around the rim, and has shown he can step back and hit a jumper.
Hope you'll listen to the Pro Hoops Draft Show Tonight! 6pm-11pm from the Cue Club of Wisconsin, 2454 N. Grandview Blvd, Waukesha. Come on out and say hello and let me know what you think of this draft!

It's funny how time flies when you're having fun. To think back to January of 2005 when we launched a sports talk station on AM1250 and mostly everybody in the business thought we were crazy thinking that a second sports talk station could make it in Milwaukee. There were times in the first few years where we weren't sure if we were going to make it or not but now almost 10 years later not only are we going strong but expanding to the FM Dial with 105.7 The Fan. Almost 10 years into this and still I run across people that simply have never heard of the station but now they will and that means only good things ahead!
None of this would be possible without the unbelievable support that we've received from you throughout the years. From our Sports Bucks promotion with our station personalities on the money in place of Presidents and then the huge auction where people used their Bucks to get great things like golf clubs, a nice size TV, and a lease on a truck to name just a few of the things that were up for auction. Then there was the time we had listeners banging on a Drew Rosenhaus piñata in front of Magoo's during the Javon Walker hold out from the Packers. Kevin Hunt then with Channel 4 in town did his sports from there! Can't forget about the Favre-que we did at Matty's in New Berlin during his first game against the Packers as a member of the Vikings. We had a couple junker cars painted purple with a number 4 on it that we hammered on with a sledge hammer…Horny Goat Brewing provided girls for our dunk tank wearing number 4…we had people dropping their jerseys into pits of fire…food and drink specials all with 4 in mind too! That was a blast!
Tim Allen has been doing his Brewers post game show now for 9 years!! When he started some in our building didn't think it would last a full year because of the lack of support within Milwaukee for the Brewers. Heck the flagship wasn't doing anything but a 15 or 20 minute wrap after games! 9 years later Tim is going strong with the post-game show and since then we've added a 1 hour pregame show as well. We've had our share of moments on that show including broadcasting outside of than Fiesta Garibaldi on the day the Brewers clinched their playoff berth in years! Champagne was being sprayed and there was a party going on!
Can't forget about our High School sports coverage! After trying to find the right combination for our high school shows, Mike "Big Time" McGivern came to the rescue and since and led the best high school coverage in the area! Whether it's our Varsity Blitz Scoreboard Show on Friday nights, which features about 15 different reporters out calling in scores from games and getting winning coaches on the air or the Varsity Blitz Coaches show on Saturday mornings from 10am til Noon through football and basketball season you simply can't match what he does! Student Athletes of the Week, Teams of the Week, and even a local high school band playing as his bumper music on the Coaches Show it's simply done the right way. I couldn't be more proud of any one thing we do then I am of where Mike "Big Time" McGivern has went with our High School coverage.
And who saw Bill Michaels leaving WTMJ and heading to us?! I certainly didn't! And who would have thought that his show would be carried state wide on 13 stations? Not this guy. Truly amazing the impact that he's had on the station since his arrival. Did I mention that Bill and Gary Ellerson are doing their Packers Post Game Show state wide as well? Yep. They are!
As we move into this new era, I want to say THANK YOU! Without you, none of this would have been possible! Can't wait to see what the next 10 years brings!

WBY Shootout: Rice Lake 56, Dominican 42
by Eric Nehm
posted Dec 27 2013 7:34PM
After one close half of basketball, Rice Lake pulled away from Dominican and never looked back on their way to a 56-42 victory in the WBY Shootout at Concordia University.
In the first quarter, things were pretty even as Rice Lake were in the lead by one point over Dominican, 13-12. The storyline going into the game was Diamond Stone vs. Henry Ellenson, but the important plays in the quarter were made by each player's supporting cast with Stone scoring four and Ellenson scoring six in the first quarter.
The game remained even through the second quarter as Rice Lake held only a five point lead, 25-20, going into the second half. At the half, Ellenson edged Stone in scoring, 11-6.
The storyline before the game was Henry Ellenson vs. Diamond Stone, but the real story of the game was between the two teams and Rice Lake proved why they were the better team in the third quarter. Just two minutes into the third quarter, Rice Lake had three three point baskets from three different players and stretched their lead out to 14 points with a 36-22 lead.
Dominican started thr fourth quarter down by 19 points and attempted to mount a comeback. With 5:18 left, Dominican was able to cut it the deficit all the way down to nine following three baskets from Diamond Stone, but were unable to get any closer after that and lost 56-42.
Quick Thoughts:
All the attention was obviously on Diamond Stone and Henry Ellenson, but Rice Lake's junior point guard Ben Widdes really did a nice job running the show for Rice Lake. He did a great job handling pressure and dictating tempo for Rice Lake.
Rice Lake senior guard Brandyn Christman is a nice shooter for Rice Lake. He hit a few big threes and used his shot fake to make plays.
6'5" Trapper Ward took Stone for a small portions of the game to give Ellenson a break on defense and he did a really great job defensively. He did a good job using his strength to slow down Stone until help came from the backside.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that many people may think Henry Ellenson is the lone reason why Rice Lake is a highly rated Division II team, but they would be wrong. This is a truly impressive TEAM and will likely do some damage come tournament time.
Dominican looks significantly different than they did last year. With Duane Wilson on the squad last year, Stone posted up constantly, but was playing second fiddle to Wilson. This season, Dominican makes a concerted effort to look inside to Stone every single possession.
Stone is just a load down low. He does a good job getting post position and has soft touch around the basket. He is a monster on the glass and blocking shots. I was just as impressed with him this season as I was last season.
Dominican's junior guard Tywon Bressler Jr. does a really nice job getting to the rack and using his quickness and the attention given to Stone to exploit defenders and get easy baskets.
This is the second year in a row I've came away impressed by Jack Jelacic from Dominican at the WBY Shootout. The 6'7" senior does it all for Dominican including tough rebounding, blocking shots, and showing off a little range.
Though Stone (6'10") and Ellenson (6'9") are both tall, Stone is definitely a post player and Ellenson is definitely a wing.
This was my first time seeing Ellenson and I came away impressed. He has a nice handle for a player his size and does a good job creating off the dribble. Though he struggled from the field tonight, he does have a good looking stroke and he can get that shot off against just about anyone.
Stone fouled out with 1:43 remaining.
Stone finished with 21 points and Ellenson ended with 17.
Both teams will be in action again tomorrow. Rice Lake takes on Neenah at 3 p.m. while Dominican will face off against Catholic Memorial at 4:30 p.m.

WBY Shootout: Whitefish Bay 76, Racine Case 71
by Eric Nehm
posted Dec 27 2013 5:52PM
After a thrilling first half, Whitefish Bay was able to pull away from Racine Case in the second half and pull out a 76-71 victory in the WBY Shootout at Concordia University.
Racine Case struggled with Whitefish Bay's zone and full court press in the first few minutes, but eventually figured it out and closed to within a single point, 19-18, at the end of the first quarter with a big dunk from junior Desmond King.
The second quarter featured Racine Case once again falling behind and then catching up with Malik House hitting some big threes, including a buzzer beater to tie the game 37-37 at halftime.
Midway through the third quarter, Whitefish Bay started forcing turnovers and opened up a ten point lead to close the third quarter on a deep three from Joe Sherburne.
Whiefish Bay was able to maintain their lead and even stretch it out to 13 points at one point, but a few turnovers and some indecision regarding taking points or wasting time allowed Racine Case to draw within just four points with 25 seconds remaining. Ultimately though, Case was unable to complete the comeback and fell to Whitefish Bay.
Quick Thoughts:
In the early going, Racine Case struggled with Whitefish Bay's zone and full court press, but after a few early turnovers, they did a much better job of taking care of the ball.
Desmond King brought the crowd to their feet to end the first quarter with a big time dunk that brought Racine Case within a single point.
Joe Sherburne has serious range. He was three for three from the three point line in the first half, including two threes from a few feet behind the line. His three near the end of the third quarter was also well behind the line.
Whitefish Bay is LONG. All of their guards and wings are 6'2" or taller which makes their zone especially difficult for offenses.
I talked about Malik House and his ability to finish at the basket yesterday, but he was on fire from the three point line in the first half. He hit three long-range jumpers with the third coming right before the first half buzzer and really kept Racine Case in the game in the first half.
Whitefish Bay will be losing a few seniors, but their backcourt will be fine next season with 6'2" junior Miles Sigh and 6'3" junior Isaiah Johnson. Both Sigh and Johnson showed great ability getting to the rim and finishing in traffic today.
Racine Case lost two tough games in this event, but I would have to assume Coach Steve Jaskulske will look at the weekend as a great learning opportunity for his team as they went up against two very good teams.

WBY Shootout: Oshkosh North 68, Wisconsin Lutheran 52
by Eric Nehm
posted Dec 27 2013 4:31PM
Wisconsin Lutheran, one of the top teams in Division II, was able to stick with Oshkosh North, one of the state's top Division I teams, for one half, but couldn't keep up in the second half as Oshkosh North pulled away and recorded a 68-52 victory in the WBY Shootout at Concordia University.
The game started off at an incredible tempo as both teams raced up and down the floor combining for 34 first quarter points with Oshkosh North leading 18-16 after one quarter.
The two teams remained close during the second quarter, but Oshkosh North retained a two point lead going into halftime leading 35-33.
After a close few minutes to start the second half, Oshkosh North pulled away behind a great effort from 6'6" senior forward Cooper Radtke. Radtke, a Northern Michigan (DII) commit, scored eight straight points for Oshkosh North as the third quarter came to a close and North took a 51-43 lead.
Wisconsin Lutheran attempted to mount a comeback in the fourth quarter, but just weren't able to overcome the deficit eventually falling 68-52.
Quick Thoughts:
There's an old saying that the best way to beat a press or zone is to beat it up the floor, so it can't be set up. Today was one of the first times I've seen someone beat Wisconsin Lutheran's press up the floor. Oshkosh North's first two baskets came on long passes after made baskets over the top of Wisconsin Lutheran's press.
I didn't get a chance to talk about him yesterday, but C.J. Polk is a really nice player for Wisconsin Lutheran. The University of Minnesota-Moorhead commit is smooth going to the basket and rarely makes bad decisions. Today, he was able to cut through North's zone and find his way to the basket for some easy buckets. His time at Wisconsin Lutheran may help once he gets to school because every coach is looking for a tough defender.
Oshkosh North's 1-3-1 zone was tough for Wisconsin Lutheran to handle when 6'6" Cooper Radtke played on top of it. With Radtke off the floor though, North failed to execute at times and Wisconsin Lutheran was able to find some holes in the zone.
Radtke (committed to DII Northern Michigan) was a handful on the offensive end as well. He did a great job getting position as well as a nice job on the offensive glass. He also did a great job running the break, especially evident on his thunderous two-handed dunk in the second quarter.
Senior point guard Nathan Neveau made some nice plays for Oshkosh North and was much of the reason Wisconsin Lutheran's press failed to force many turnovers this afternoon. He did a nice job remaining under control and finding his way into the lane.
There really isn't a single player that really blows you away on Oshkosh North, but they execute extremely well and do a great job playing as one cohesive unit. Really fun to watch a team that plays like that.
Oshkosh North will be back tomorrow at 7:30 p.m. to face the team that knocked them out of last year's Divison I playoffs, Germantown.

WBY Shootout: Neenah 62, Milwaukee Marquette 41
by Eric Nehm
posted Dec 27 2013 3:02PM
Neenah was in control from the opening tip today against Milwaukee Marquette as they cruised to a 62-41 victory in the WBY Shootout at Concordia University.
Neenah took a nine-point lead to start the game behind some slick playmaking from point guard and UW-Milwaukee soccer commit Adam Pohlman and some nice finishes from junior forward Matt Heldt. After the 9-0 start to the game, Neenah did not look back as they took a 29-22 lead into halftime.
The second half featured much of the same as Neenah continued to execute and led the game 47-33 after three quarters. One play in the middle of the third quarter perfectly captured today's game. As a Marquette player drove to the basket, Heldt blocked his shot and saved the ball to Pohlman before going out of bounds. Heldt regained his balance and immediately sprinted up floor where Pohlman found him underneath the basket for a layup on a nifty pass through traffic.
Neenah continued their dominance in the fourth quarter and eventually closed out the game with a 62-41 victory.
Quick Thoughts:
During the game someone asked me on Twitter what I thought of Matt Heldt, who is drawing interest from multiple Division I schools, so here is my synopsis of his game. Heldt is a prototypical modern-day big man. He posts up and tries to get good position, but doesn't necessarily dominate from the block. That doesn't really matter though because he does a great job running the floor and finding open space in the half court for easy dunks and layins. He possesses nice touch around the basket and showed some range today hitting a three in the first half. These are all the things I think most coaches now look for in a big man and why many college coaches are drooling over him.
Pohlman picked up his second foul just five minutes into the game. With Pohlman out for a majority of the first half, Neenah turned to senior guard Taulvish McCray and he more than capably filled in at the point.
I gushed about him on Twitter, but Adam Pohlman was in complete control of today's game. Dictated the tempo of the game and made the right decision repeatedly. The true embodiment of a point guard. Selfishly, I wish he would be playing basketball somewhere at the next level, but Pohlman will do just fine as a soccer player at UW-Milwaukee.
6'3" Marquette junior Ben Meinholz ended the first half in impressive fashion as he picked McCray and went down to the other end for a one-handed dunk.
With Meinholz and 6'7" junior Garrison Goode (who I wrote about yesterday), Milwaukee Marquette could have a nice team next season if both players continue to develop.
Neenah might have a tougher test tomorrow as they will face off against Rice Lake at 3 p.m. tomorrow.

WBY Shootout: West De Pere 65, Milwaukee Washington 49
by Eric Nehm
posted Dec 27 2013 1:31PM
For the second straight day, West De Pere was able to take care of business and prove themselves worthy of their high ranking at Division II level as they took care of business against MIlwaukee Washington and came away with a 65-49 victory.
West De Pere was able to handle Milwaukee Washington's pressure in the first half and ran out to a 25-11 lead at halftime.
The second half looked very similar to the first as West De Pere was able to push their lead out to more than 20 points in the third quarter. Though they could have just folded up and stopped playing hard, they kept working and were able to cut the deficit to just 11 with five minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, but Cody Schwartz quickly answered with a deep three from the right wing and West De Pere didn't look back from there, ultimately defeating Milwaukee Washington 65-49.
Quick Thoughts:
Cody Schwartz (6'8") and Chandler Diekvoss (6'6") were just as impressive on day two. Both of them did a great job handling pressure and show an above average ability to handle the ball and make plays for their size. Both of them are also great shooters with range.
Marquette coach Buzz Williams, UW-Green Bay coach Brian Wardle, and Wisconsin assistant Greg Gard were among those in attendance to see Schwartz.
Three seconds into the second half, MIlwaukee Washington coach Freddie Riley received a technical as he complained to the officials. Riley was insistent that the officials were calling the game too tight and not allowing his players to play defense.
With Milwaukee Washington now at the Division II level, Division II is absolutely stacked. West De Pere has proven to be more than worthy of their Top 3 ranking. Washington didn't look great today against West De Pere, but they're a very good team. Wisconsin Lutheran was impressive last night against Milwaukee Marquette and will be tested later today against Oshkosh North. And we haven't even seen Henry Ellenson and Rice Lake yet. Needless to say, the Division II Tournament is going to be FUN this year.

WBY Shootout: What to Look Forward to on Friday
by Eric Nehm
posted Dec 26 2013 7:44PM
Everything. I am looking forward to everything tomorrow, but I will highlight just five games that really stick out.
West De Pere vs. Milwaukee Washington – Noon – West De Pere was able to handle their first game against a Division I team from the Milwaukee area, but they'll have see if they can do it again tomorrow against Milwaukee Washington. Cody Schwartz (interest from Creighton, Marquette, Nebraska and Northern Iowa) and Chandler Diekvoss (Richmond commit) put on a show on Friday when both scored over 20 points against Racine Case, so I'll be interested to see what they have in store for tomorrow.
Milwaukee Marquette vs. Neenah – 1:30 p.m. – Neenah has gone unbeaten thus far this season and are led by senior point guard Adam Pohlman (interest from several Division I schools) and junior Matt Heldt (interest from both Marquette and Wisconsin). I'll be interested to see if Milwaukee Marquette can recover from a rough night against Wisconsin Lutheran and push Neenah tomorrow.
Rice Lake vs. Dominican – 6 p.m. – This is the matchup everyone was circling going into the event. Rice Lake features Henry Ellenson (interest from Marquette and Wisconsin among others) and is the #6 ranked team in Division 2, while Dominican features Diamond Stone (interest from Marquette and Wisconsin among others) and is the #1 ranked team in Division 4. This should be an absolute battle and quite possibly the game of the day.
Milwaukee Vincent vs. Germantown – 7:30 p.m. – Germantown is the best team in the state and sports the state's longest winning streak of all-time at 65 straight games. They also feature three players committed to Division I schools: Lamonte Bearden (Buffalo), Jake Showalter (North Dakota State) and Evan Wesenberg (North Dakota State). Vincent is no slouch though as the storied basketball program once again boasts a very good team.
De Pere vs. Arrowhead – 9 p.m. – I am really looking forward to watching De Pere because of junior guard Brevin Pritzl (interest from several Division I programs). I had the privilege of watching Pritzl battle Germantown at a jam-packed Homestead High School last year during the Division I playoffs and he was unafraid of the powerhouse Warhawks. Pritzl's range extends to the parking lot and he does not back down from anyone.

Mycoplasma pneumoniae is an important cause of human respiratory disease and has been implicated in many acute and chronic airway pathologies including asthma, as well as in a range of extra pulmonary manifestations. The diagnosis of M. pneumoniae has been difficult for many reasons, including their highly fastidious nature. Our discovery of the ADP-ribosylating and vacuolating CARDS TX has enabled us to develop molecular and immunological assays (in collaboration with the diagnostic company Alere) to detect M. pneumoniae based upon the CARDS TX target. We have published these initial assays that continue to evolve in terms of reagent and format optimization. Our long-term objectives of the Diagnostic Core Laboratory will be to provide novel diagnostic assays that are highly sensitive and specific for rapid detection of Mycoplasma pneumoniae, based upon CARDS TX as target. This will allow us to monitor and evaluate the frequency and impact of M. pneumoniae and CARDS TX on asthma-related symptomatology in pediatric and adult patients and pulmonary inflammation, asthma development and pathogenesis in the infected murine model. Our goal is to evaluate specimens such as nasal swabs, throat swabs, sputum and sera from acute and chronic pediatric and adult asthma and control patients to determine the incidence of M. pneumoniae and to correlate the presence of this organism, and CARDS TX-specific antibodies, to pulmonary outcomes using longitudinal assessments. Our hypothesis is that M. pneumoniae through its bona fide virulence determinant, CARDS TX, elicits and exacerbates allergic airway Inflammation in pediatric and adult populations. By accumulating meaningful data from both initial and longitudinal studies of patients and healthy controls, and from experimental data obtained through the murine model of infection and intoxication, we will generate improved diagnostic information which will lead to effective and enhanced treatment modalities.
Our specific aims are as follows: (1) collection and transport of clinical and experimental samples in conjunction with Patient Core and Project 1;(2) process clinical and experimental samples for diagnostic analysis;(3) perform CARDS TX ELISA on all serum samples, both clinical and experimental;(4) evaluate biological samples for levels of CARDS TX protein using a unique antigen capture assay;and (5) perform CARDS TX quantitative real time PCR on samples as described.
Mycoplasma pneumoniae and CARDS toxin induce and exacerbate asthma and allergic airway inflammation in pediatric and adult populations. By accumulating meaningful and improved diagnostic data from both initial and longitudinal studies of patients and healthy controls and from experimental data obtained through the murine model of infection and intoxication, we will generate novel and important diagnostic information which will lead to effective and enhanced treatment modalities.

Constant Rebooting?
Hello Androidcentral,
My Galaxy S 3 has the issue of constant rebooting. Whenever I attempt to update apps on Play Store, the device will freeze, reset its wallpaper, display a message saying that the System UI has failed, and constantly reboot and crash until the battery dies. A memory wipe and clean install have worked, albeit temporarily. Anything I can do to remedy this problem?

Re: Constant Rebooting?
Welcome to Android Central! What do you mean by a memory wipe and clean install? Do you mean a factory data reset?
If you haven't already done so, I'd suggest rebooting to the Recovery Menu and wiping the system cache partition, which won't erase any personal data: [Guide] Rebooting into Recovery Mode for the Galaxy S2, S3, and Tab2.
Another thing to consider is unmounting the SD card (in Settings>Storage), removing it, and rebooting. A corrupt SD card can cause various problems.

Chuck, On that original cross - - The pod only produced about 12 seeds. Of
those - - 7 germinated. Two didn't grow well, and died before they bloomed;
two were pale blue with veining/haft marks around the beards; only one
amoena ( the parent seedling posted), one darker blue, and one off
white/pale yellow. No Plicatas. A couple of those had yellow beards, a
couple with tangerine beards. Most of those had an old form to them, one
had falls that flared very well. Nothing really out of the ordinary. (Unless
they were in the seeds that didn't geminate, or died).

After Andrea's passing in 2009, her non-profit, the Andrea Lawrence Institute for Mountains and Rivers (ALIMAR), faced the difficult decision of charting a path forward.
Led by Andrea's daughter Quentin, ALIMAR approached the Mono Lake Committee. The two groups crafted a practical and efficient plan to transfer the ALIMAR program to the Committee.
The Mono Lake Committee's newly-created Andrea Lawrence Fund will promote and celebrate passionate engagement in community and the land with an emphasis on encouraging collaboration and inspiring youth to become environmental leaders.
The fund was kicked off by the transfer of all assets from ALIMAR, which has now dissolved as an organization. Special gifts in Andrea's honor are welcomed and will be dedicated to the purposes of the fund. All ALIMAR members will become Mono Lake Committee members, and the Committee will begin hosting the Andrea Lawrence Award Dinner.

Amazing!I bought this iron after doing crazy amounts of research. I figured if I was going to pay over $100 on a hair tool I needed to read up on them. I had never used a clipless curling iron, and now, I am not sure I will ever use anything else. The curl is more of a wave, and with summer right around the corner it gives the perfect "beachy look" that every girl is going for. I have very straight hair, and just recently added highlights. Usually, curling irons dry out my highlighted hair and give my look more of a "I spent hours in front of the mirror trying to make this happen and it still looks like a disaster" rather than a "I woke up like this" look. Sedu's clipless iron gives me a natural wave look that lasts all day. I could go on and on about this iron, but you really need to try it for yourself. Its worth the money.May 27, 2014Sedu Revolution Clipless Curling IronHAIR TYPEMedium Brown / Color Treated Hair / Fine or Thin Hair

Best Curling Iron Ever!My hair never holds a curl until now. And after washing my hair it is not hard to comb out. Using my previous curling iron my hair would be a rats nest in the back. This is not an issue with this curling iron!May 12, 2014Sedu Revolution 25mm Clipless Curling Ir...

Perfect For Long Hair!I have long naturally wavy blonde hair which over the course of the past few years' of flat-ironing, no longer held a curl. This curling iron has definitely changed all that! It takes less time to curl my hair now than it does to straighten it, and the results are SO much better. After curling, I spritz with a holding spray, then flip my head forward to "loosen" the curl, then style or clip how I want it and spritz again. Hair stays curled all day! Would definitely highly recommend this product. I'll never user hot rollers or standard curling iron again!Apr 23, 2014Sedu Revolution 25mm Clipless Curling Ir...HAIR TYPEBlonde / Normal Hair / Color Treated Hair / Fine or Thin Hair

This Stuff Is Amazing!All I can say is WOW. I tried it out on my daughter who has natural light blonde hair that is kind of wavy and tends to be a bit frizzy. Also, like most blondes she does not have much shine to her hair. I put this on her and was expecting the same results as every other oil/heat protector we've tried. Then we curled her hair and I was amazed at how bouncy and shiny her curls were. She looked just like one of those hair models on TV with the perfect hair.

It's Just OkI would not buy this again. Do your hair a favor and get 100% Organic Argan Oil. This has a bunch of other crap in it. This is an "anti-frizz polishing treatment with pure argan oil."

38mm Beach Waves And BodyI like this size of curling iron for creating beach waves look or to give body to sleek straight hair.
This size curling iron is not good for curls.
I trust this brand I have owned both a blow drier and flat iron for 6 years and have not had any problems. I feel that they have protected my hair all these years.
The curling iron has an auto timer which turns off if left on for too long which is good because I have previously forgotten to turn off my flat iron. However the timer turns off quicker than the time it takes to do my hair so I did three or four curls with it off and cooling before i realized that it was off. That was annoying to I turned the auto feature off.
This size curling iron is good if you have curly hair and want to smooth out without making it straight.
Overall I recommend this curling iron any size and the 38mm size in particular if you want a beach wavy lookMar 31, 2014Sedu Revolution Clipless Curling IronHAIR TYPEMedium Brown / Curly Hair / Fine or Thin Hair / Chemically Treated Hair

Wow Is All I Can SayOk I never leave reviews but I decided to splurge because I seriously have 5 curling irons...hot tools and others and it curls my hair but after an hour my hair is basically straight...I didn't know if it was my hair or the tools I was using..i have the sedu straightner and I love it so I decided to splurge on this curling iron...I tried it this morning and here it is noon and my hair is still curled and beautiful...also I was torn between the 38mm and 25mm because I am looking for the nice Victoria secret waves not tight curls...all I did was use the 25mm one I got and ran my fingers through my hair...I am so happy I used living proof hair spray and It is staying nicely I found my favorite stying tool.....highly recommend!!!!!!!!Mar 27, 2014Sedu Revolution 25mm Clipless Curling Ir...HAIR TYPEDark Brown / Normal Hair / Dry Hair

Sedu Anti-frizz Polishing Treatment With Moroccan Argan OilI absolutely love the Sedu Anti-Frizz Polishing Treatment with Moroccan Argan Oil. It works great.

Great Iron But Beware Of Burns!This clipless curling iron works wonderfully! I have very fine hair and this iron works great. I got a ton of compliments on my hair. I use a thermal heat spray first before curling. I think S Factor flat iron shine defender is the best. It makes hair super silky. Once your curl is made before you release it from your hand let it cool a bit first, this will help the curl set (even lightly fan it with a postcard/paper to speed up process of cooling). Also when you are done before you lightly finger through the curls lightly spray it with hair spray. I like S Factor for this as well but Redken number 18 does nicely. You just don't want to use a hair spray that will make your hair feel stiff. Remember you want silky beachy waves not a crows nest. Finally, the glove included works great except it is not long enough. On my second attempt I got a third degree burn right past where the glove stopped on my wrist. I have ordered another glove that goes further up my arm to prevent further burns. But it only took a flash for it to happen so be careful!Feb 26, 2014Sedu Revolution Clipless Curling IronHAIR TYPEBlonde / Fine or Thin Hair

Normally My Hair Refuses To Stay CurlyI had one of those curling wands that has different barrels that you can choose from. A little spring inside it just burned and I could not use it again. I have two little dark spots(scars) from using it. I would normally have it on the highest setting because my hair never stays curly for long.
After a very extensive research I decided to try this item. It is well worth it's price. My hair stays curly for a longer time. It heats in seconds.
The only thing I would prefer is a longer barrel because I have very long hair. But if I take smaller sections it works really well! I am very please with this purchase!Feb 24, 2014Sedu Revolution Clipless Curling IronHAIR TYPEFine or Thin Hair

Erm, Samuel Luke. For sure. I just love the idea of you with a Samuel! Samuel Luke is fab and goes so well with your others, and for some reason, I really don't mind the idea of Sophie, Sarah, Serena, and Samuel anywhere near as much as I minded Sophie, Sarah, Serena, and something like Susannah or Sybil, even (although, now that I think of it, I REALLY love the idea of Sophie, Sarah, Serena, and Sybil as sisters!). Samuel just seems... so you. Although I would propose Samuel John. Have you considered it? I'm biased because I'm about 98% sure I'm using John with Samuel on my boys' list (probably Samuel Gaspard John or Samuel John Gaspard), but at the same time, I love John's meaning for you, and Samuel John just seems to pair up so well! Besides, it gets rid of the smooshy feel of Samuel Luke that turns into Samuluk...Ashley | namenerd | Christian | storyteller

Wyclef Jean's Haiti charity is to close following allegations of financial mismanagement.
The Fugees star co-founded Yele Haiti in 2004 to assist in the wake of Hurricane Jeanne, which devastated his native island. The organization was also involved in aid efforts following the Haiti earthquake in 2010.
However, the charity was investigated by the New York attorney general and reportedly went out of business last month, according to the New York Times.
The report alleges that a forensic audit of the organization from 2005-2009 found mismanagement of expenses including $24,000, which was spent on chauffeur services for Jean, and $30,000 on a private jet to fly actress Lindsay Lohan from New Jersey to Chicago for a benefit event that raised $66,000.
A statement from Jean's attorney Avi Schick, posted on Jean's Facebook.com page, reads: "Wyclef Jean helped pay for the independent audit of Yele because of his commitment to both the organization and the people of Haiti, and while most of its findings do not in any way relate to him he is nevertheless committed to ensuring that things are made right."
Jean's spokesperson Melanie A. Bonvicino adds: "At present my client Wyclef Jean and his legal team are working assiduously to resolve any pending issues with respect to Yele prior to its closing, as Mr. Jean continues his tireless commitment to his 'beloved' country by remaining steadfast in his efforts to encourage the global community to join him in supporting ongoing relief efforts in Haiti."

White Christmas is not my favorite plant. However, it did fare as well
as could be expected in our Georgia heat and drought. Any plant with
this much white leaf suface just leaves a plant with a lack of vigor. In
my garden I had a minimal amount of 'melting out' which may have a lot
to do with location in the garden. Extra light but not too much.
(whatever that means is hard to explain). White Christmas in containers
was another story. With warm days in Jan. & Feb., containers plants
especially had an early emergence. March came, as it does many years,
with late freezes. Even with protection, some plants got frozen back and
had to start all over again. White Christmas never seemed to bounce back
and grow very well last season. We may be in trouble again this year
with temps. this Jan. in the 70's. This week we had a high of 76F but
now its rainy and back to wintertime again.
Let's keep our fingers crossed

Spring 1994
pg. 7
Albedo modification results: Regions within the modeling domain that have been identified for simulated albedo augmentation. Dark green areas are unmodified, light green areas represent modification of less than 0.10, and white is a modification in excess of 0.10. The average albedo increase over the 394 modified cells is 0.16. The second graphic in this document (depicting the central part of the first map) shows the difference between the high-albedo case and the base-case simulation at noon.
The desert oasis is often represented in movies as an island of cool green palms and a running spring or pool amid a sea of sand. The urban oasis is in some ways its opposite, a dark "heat island" whose temperature profile stands out from the cool greenery of the surrounding countryside.
Since 1985, a group of LBL researchers, including Hashem Akbari, Art Rosenfeld, Sarah Bretz, Beth Fishman, Dan Kurn, and Haider Taha, has been studying urban heat islands and ways to mitigate their high temperature. They have found that on a summer day, the average temperature in a typical American city is about 3 to 5 degrees F hotter than the surrounding area; they also estimate that air conditioning to cool cities from this effect accounts for 5 to 10% of urban peak electric demand. In Los Angeles alone, the additional electricity costs more than $100 million per year, not counting the costs of the added smog concentration caused by this heat.
Islands in the Sun
The elevated temperatures of urban heat islands are increasing with population and new building growth. Since 1940, temperatures of many cities have climbed steadily by 0.25 to 1 degree F per decade. A hot summer afternoon can raise peak cooling demands throughout the U.S. by about 10 GW, which costs several billion dollars each year. Los Angeles has experienced one of the largest observed rises: each 1 degree F rise there increases peak cooling demand by 1.5%.
Heat islands compromise air quality through two mechanisms. First, power plants that generate the additional electricity to meet the load produce pollution. Second, higher air temperature enhances the formation of smog-in Los Angeles, the probability increases 2 to 4% per degree F. When the city is below 70 degrees F, smog episodes are rare. Smog appears more than 50% of the time when the temperature reaches 90 degrees F. Reducing the daily high temperature by 5 degrees F in Los Angeles could eliminate one-third of its smog episodes.
The Comfort of Shady Trees and Lightened Surfaces
Inexpensive ways of mitigating heat-island effects are as old as human civilization: planting shade trees and changing the color of surfaces so that they reflect more incoming solar radiation, for example, by painting them or covering them with lighter materials. The high "albedo" of a light-colored surface is good at reflecting the sun's energy. Shade trees reduce heat gain by directly shading buildings as well as through evapotranspiration. Results indicate that shade trees can reduce cooling energy use in buildings by about 10% of the capital cost of avoided power plants and air conditioning equipment. Light-colored surfaces can cool even more effectively with more immediate results than shade trees, which take time to grow. The cost of saved energy is less than 1¢/kWh and 2¢/kg of carbon respectively. Assuming an average of 5¢/kWh for electricity, the net cost is 4¢/kWh. The approximate net cost of avoided CO2 is about -$200/ton of carbon.
To simulate the effects of lightening and greening a city, the LBL scientists used a three-dimensional meteorological model of the Los Angeles Basin consisting of 2600 cells, each 25 km2. They identified 394 of the 2,600 cells as "developed areas" where lightening agents could increase the albedo of the cells' impermeable surfaces. When the albedo is increased by about 0.16, the average difference between the current and lightened Los Angeles at 3 p.m. is 4 degrees F.
Looking for Energy Savings
Seeking to quantify the energy saved from mitigation techniques, Center researchers gathered data during the summers of 1991 and 1992 at residences and school bungalows in Sacramento, California. In 1992, the team placed shade trees at one house for four weeks and measured the home's energy use. After moving the shade trees to the other site, they made the same measurements. A comparison of the homes suggests that the trees saved 30% of cooling energy use in the unshaded building. By changing the albedo of one house's roof from a dark 0.16 to a very light 0.78, the team measured a seasonal air-conditioning savings of about 40% (330 kWh/yr). This work is giving the Sacramento Municipal Utility District the background data for establishing a demand-side management program to save air-conditioning energy. Already, there is sufficient evidence to claim that utility-sponsored DSM programs could save perhaps $100 million per year in energy costs through these simple, inexpensive mitigation methods.

Hey, I'm Red, I've been here quite a while. I enjoy mostly fighting and game animes, but I'll watch loads of other things as well.
7,500 total episodes
Great! Now you just need to put an original image into the sig like everybody else. Unless you actually LIKE the standard one? :P
Also, great going on the Monster manga. Haven't read it myself - only seen the anime. But I've only heard that's it's as good or better than the anime, which I never would have thought possible!
That's true. Area 88 had something unique that most contemporary anime lack... Heart. (it may sound a little cheesy but I think it's true)
In which city of Belgium?
Thanks man. Yeah, even though it's pretty old, Area 88 is still very good. Cream of the crop if I may say... So, where are you from? Are you a college student or something?
Konnichiwa!! Just stumbled on your profile and though to greet you in japanese fashion... :)
Cool top 5 by the way...
Just saw you rating Monster 4.5. YES! Good choice! Now you just have to do up your sig... and your profile will be complete! :)

Where The Cows Roam
December 12th, 2011
You know you've been upstaged when…
(submitted by Janell)
these are extremely confused cows…I don't think that is how it works?
They're doing it wrong.
I love it.
"Hey Bessie … what say … I'll scratch your back if you scratch mine."
Udderly ridiculous.
Way back in the day I was a champion cow-stacker. I got to 3!

203713 excel spreadsheet
- Status Closed
- Budget N/A
Project Description
I need an excel expert that understands finance and mortgages to create a custom mortgage reduction program in excel.
The program will allow the user to enter their mortgage information including the type of mortgage(P&I, Adjustable Mortgage, ARM).
The user will also enter information from a Home equity line of credit(HELOC) which will be used as a tool to pay down their mortgage. The program will compare the time to pay off the original mortgage to a projected time using the HELOC to pay off their mortgage sooner with the interest savings through the HELOC by depositing their income and savings into the HELOC.
They will borrow from their HELOC to apply to their mortgage. The program will calculate deposits and expenses in and out of the HELOC and calculate the monthly interest incurred and the savings from depositing their income into the HELOC.
The user will be able to update their HELOC from their statement every month and see the effect it has compared to the projected pay off time.
The program will have a payment schedule and two reports showing the interest and time savings.
In summary this program will calculate the savings in time and interest in using a HELOC as a tool to pay down a mortgage years sooner. I have the layout and need the formulas entered. This is just like a Money Merge Account in excel.
