The Journal Sentinel sports staff brings Milwaukee Bucks fans the latest news, notes and analysis
Skiles is Bucks' choice
Scott Skiles didn't have to wait long for another opportunity to be a head coach.
Less than four months after being fired by the Chicago Bulls, the 44-year-old Skiles was named coach of the Milwaukee Bucks today, league sources confirmed. The Bucks called a 4 p.m. news conference at the Bradley Center to announce their choice.
New general manager John Hammond moved quickly to land Skiles, heading off possible bids by several other National Basketball Association teams.
The Bucks immediately focused their coaching search on Skiles, who led the Bulls to three consecutive 40-plus victory seasons, including a 49-33 record during the 2006-'07 season. But when Chicago started slowly with a 9-16 mark this season, Skiles was fired on Christmas Eve.
Skiles is a close friend of the man he is replacing, Larry Krystkowiak. The Bucks fired Krystkowiak on Thursday, less than 24 hours after the end of the season, following a 26-56 finish.
Skiles coached three seasons with the Phoenix Suns and posted a 51-31 record during the 2000-'01 season. Prior to becoming the Suns' head coach, Skiles served on Danny Ainge's coaching staff in Phoenix for two-plus seasons.
The Bulls ended their playoff drought during the 2004-'05 season under Skiles, who led the Bulls for four-plus seasons. Chicago had missed the playoffs for six consecutive years following their last of six NBA titles during the Michael Jordan era, in 1997-'98.
The Bulls posted a sweep over defending league champion Miami in the first round of the 2007 Eastern Conference playoffs, before falling to Detroit in six games in the conference semifinals.
The native of LaPorte, Ind., has an overall NBA record of 281-251, and his teams have reached the playoffs five times.
Skiles was drafted by the Bucks in the first round in 1986, but he played only 13 games with the franchise and nearly retired as a rookie due to a neck injury.
He was able to continue his career, however, and played 10 seasons with Indiana, Orlando, Washington and Philadelphia.
Skiles was an All-American at Michigan State and played under Jud Heathcote. As a senior in high school, Skiles scored 39 points in the title game to lead Plymouth to the 1982 Indiana state championship.
Skiles is known for an honest, no-nonsense approach with his players. After center Ben Wallace signed a free-agent deal with the Bulls prior to last season, he clashed with Skiles over the coach's no headband rule.
Wallace underachieved with the Bulls and eventually was dealt to Cleveland in a trade deadline deal this season. The Bulls struggled to 33 victories this season. Interim coach Jim Boylan took over after Skiles was fired, but Boylan also was fired last week.
Skiles can be extremely candid in his evaluations. He gave a succinct response when asked how former Bulls player and current New York Knick Eddy Curry could improve his rebounding. "Jump," Skiles said.
Skiles was not bothered outwardly by his Christmas Eve firing and remained confident he would get another opportunity. Now it comes just 90 miles up the road for the Bulls' division rival.
"I understand how this business works," Skiles told the Chicago Tribune in December. "We (the Bulls) had a lot of expectations and we weren't living up to them this season. We went from an overachieving team to an underachieving team. But this was a great experience that will continue to make me a better coach."

Affluent Lifestyle Guide
You might like Best Runway Models >
Now that spring is here and summer is just around the corner, men's grooming trends have been narrowed down to two looks: clean shaven and a light stubble. And while we love a bearded gentleman, we understand warm weather can be a serious deterrent for the lumberjack look.
What does summer smell like exactly? Sandy beaches? Margaritas? A citrus cocktail of mango and pineapple? New York-based perfumer Krigler thinks it smells exactly like California, and we're inclined to agree.
There's something both nostalgic and heartwarming about welcoming in a new year. On one hand we'll miss all the ridiculous antics of 2014 (a certain Vogue cover comes to mind) and on the other we're looking forward to the possibilities of 2015.
Okay, truth be told Gucci Guilty comes in both men's and women's fragrances, so this article could have gone either way, except for the fact that it's latest campaign is clearly geared toward a male demographic. Captain America riding on a fiery motorcycle? Bombshell blondes in sky-high heels?
Sometimes there is a fragrance just so amazing you want to smell it everywhere—your lotions, soaps, shampoos, linens—so it's understandable that you want it permeating your home as well.
Versace has released a new campaign for its newest fragrance for women, Eros Pour Femme. Casting supermodel Lara Stone—who is making a serious comeback after giving birth to her son last year—the images star the Dutch beauty posing next to a titanic sized bottle of the fragrance dressed like a Grecian goddess.
For some guys a quick spray of cologne as they walk out the door just isn't enough to keep them smelling great throughout the day, and spritzing between meetings just isnt an option, so Le Labo is giving men a new way to wear and maintain their signature scent.
You didn't think Jeremy Scott was going to do anything serious for his first Moschino fragrance, did you? His direct pop culture references, his wild runway shows and quirky, if not somewhat controversial, collections have put the Italian house back on the map as one of the must-have brands for the past few seasons.
Since Rihanna coming back to Instagram is reason to celebrate (at least in this office anyway), it's only fitting her new fragrance announcement comes by way of social media as well.
Chanel wouldn't be okay with just a quick little campaign slot and some pretty pictures of Gisele Bündchen running around on a beach—oh no. The latest Chanel N°5 campaign that's been teased and buzzed about for weeks has finally been released today.
Yes, it's fall and normally around this time we're putting away anything that smells remotely like fruit or flowers, but Fendi has just announced a new fragrance—Fan di FENDI Blossom.
A rose fragrance that is truly tolerable is rare. A rose fragrance that is luxurious and beautiful is almost impossible. The popular bloom can be one of the hardest scents to emulate correctly as it is often thrown haphazardly into candles, lotions or air fresheners that are nothing like the original intoxicating floral scent.
If I were to ask who designed your recently-acquired Louis Vuitton Dora bag, you might be able to casually toss out the name Nicolas Ghesquière. Fashion-forward women know Alexander Wang is backing Balenciaga, Riccardo Tisci is designing for Givenchy and Raf Simons is in charge of the collections at Dior, but can you name the designer behind the fragrances sitting on your vanity?
While we're patiently counting down the days until the Burberry runway show, one of the highlights of London Fashion Week, the brand has just released the campaign images and video for its new fragrance, My Burberry.
Fendi might be known for their fur and the Karlito key chain, but this fall they're coming out with a ferocious new fragrance that captures the edge, seductiveness and animal spirit of the Italian house.

For every turbine per 62 sq miles (100 sq km) in Britain, there are 11 in Denmark, six in Germany and the Netherlands, and three in Spain.
Wind farms are even more thinly spread in England because most of Britain's turbines are located in Scotland and Wales.
There are only 0.5 turbines per 62 sq miles in England, compared to 2.4 in Wales and 1.7 in Scotland, according to the report by RenewableUK, the wind industry's trade body.
The figures contradict the idea trumpeted by wind farm opponents that Britain is littered with turbines.
The relative shortage of wind farms in Britain also contrasts our reputation as a windswept nation and the potential for harnessing green energy.
The nation's 2,600 onshore turbines ran at 28.7 per cent of their peak capacity on average during 2009, compared to 23 per cent in Denmark and Spain and 17.4 per cent in Germany.
However, with fewer turbines, Britain generates 58 watts of wind power per person compared to 518 in Denmark, 425 in Spain and 320 in Germany.
Britain is already committed to reducing emissions by 34 per cent by 2020 and increasing its proportion of energy from renewable sources from 3 per cent in 2009 to 15 per cent by 2020.
The new carbon budget for 2022 to 2027 will increase the pace of cuts to set the country on a trajectory to halve carbon emissions by 2025 from 1990 levels.
It will mean major investment in wind farms, electric cars and recycling, while households will have to be better insulated and switch to greener energy.
However, government figures last month showed suggested that the winds which sweep Britain may be weakening. Thirteen of the past 16 months have been calmer than normal – while 2010 was the "stillest" year of the past decade.
Meteorologists believe that changes to the Atlantic jet stream could alter the pattern of winds over the next 40 years and leave the nation's wind farms running at lower capacity.

US man arrested in NY police cannibalism case
More News from Associated Press
NEW YORK— A man was arrested Friday on charges that he sought to pay $5,000 to a New York City police officer — later charged in a cannibalism case — to kidnap a Manhattan woman that he intended to rape and kill.
Michael Vanhise, 22, of New Jersey, was charged with conspiracy to commit kidnapping. He was arrested at his Trenton home, accused of agreeing to pay Gilberto Valle for the abduction last year when Valle was an active police officer.
Federal prosecutors and the FBI said Valle was supposed to kidnap the woman in New York and bring her to Vanhise's home in New Jersey, where she would be raped and killed. They said Vanhise also participated in planning the kidnapping of a girl.
Vanhise also admitted emailing others about kidnapping, raping and killing women and children, the FBI said in court papers unsealed in U.S. District Court in Manhattan.
Vanhise's lawyer did not immediately return a call for comment.
Valle was charged last year with using a law-enforcement database as he allegedly made plans to kidnap, rape, kill and eat women. The officer's lawyer said he was engaging in sexual fantasies and intended no violence.
U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara said Vanhise engaged in conduct "that reads like a script for a bad horror film."
He said the arrest was the second "in this bone-chilling case, but we are not finished."
George Venizelos, head of the New York FBI office, said the charges "convey the depravity of the offense."
According to court papers, Vanhise and Valle negotiated last February to carry out the kidnapping of the Manhattan woman, saying in email conversations that she would be knocked unconscious before her hands and feet were bound and she was gagged. The men conspired to stuff her into a large suitcase and deliver her to Vanhise's home, where Valle insisted she would still be alive so that Vanhise could rape her, authorities said.
The court papers said Vanhise also emailed photographs of a girl whom Vanhise knew well after other unidentified co-conspirators expressed interest in kidnapping the child.
Vanhise was charged with one count of conspiracy to commit kidnapping, which carries a maximum sentence of life in prison.
Valle, 28, of Queens, was charged in October with one count of kidnapping conspiracy and one count of accessing a computer without authorization. He is awaiting trial.

I like this window seat, but worry about a cat claw getting stuck in the heater. It also does not fit all window sills, so measure before buying. I only use it if I am at home
Pros: warm & soft
Cons: heat pad may be damaged by kitty claws

Did you?
Very comfy window seat.
posted 7 years ago
My cats love this window seat. It's super easy to install, however, it can peel the paint off of the window sill if you're not careful. Guaranteed your cat will be sitting in the window all day long.
Pros: Comfy. Cats love it.
Cons: Can peel the paint off of your window sill.

This remarkable old piece, honoring the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, is made of celluloid. It is for the Past Grand Noble of the Grand Assembly o Walla Walla in 1908. The detailed celluloid piece has an obelisk in the center and reads; Oddfellows Home Monument Unveiled June 1908 - Walla Walla. Below that is the IOOF and All Seeing Eye, the Three Link Emblem for friendship, love and truth, a circle with a tent like symbol which maybe an encampment variation and a circle with symbols representing the Rebekah Lodge. The original ribbon attaches the celluloid piece to the badge which has a pin attached to the back of it. Stamped into the back of the metal is; Whitehead & Hoag Co. of Newark N.J..
The celluloid portion measures about 2 ½" by 1 9/16", the pin portion measures about 2" wide by 1 1/8" and the overall length is about 5". It is in very good condition with minimal wear. There is a slight amount of fading and soiling to the ribbon with a tiny tear to the top right edge of the ribbon.

Chairman of the Coffee Board Jawaid Akhtar said on Thursday that the board is planning to introduce "three or four new hybrid varieties of coffee soon".
"These new Arabica varieties are in the pipeline," he said, while addressing the 55th Annual Conference of the Karnataka Planters' Association.
Mr. Akhtar said the board is also making efforts to expand acreage under coffee in the traditional coffee growing States by 20,000 hectares. "We are also planning to expand acreage in non-traditional States such as Orissa and Andhra Pradesh," Mr. Akhtar said. Referring to the demand by coffee growers that the government support their efforts at increasing mechanisation, Mr. Akhtar said the government is preparing such schemes for implementation during the 12th Plan period.
The highlight of the conference was a presentation by Ramario Gava Ferrao, a researcher in plant genetics and breeding from Brazil. Dr. Ferrao pointed out that unlike in India, in many parts of Brazil, the coffee crop is on terrain that is more conducive for mechanisation.

Deputy Commissioner M.T. Reju inaugurated a "Udyog Mela" (job fair) co-organised by the district administration, employment exchange, and Diya Systems Pvt. Ltd. at the district offices complex here on Thursday.
Mr. Reju said that normally such job fairs were held in Bangalore and Mangalore. Very few job fairs were held in smaller cities such as Udupi. This year, government departments had organised just three job fairs in Udupi.
Private firm Diya Systems Pvt. Ltd. should tell the rejected candidates as to why their candidature was turned down.
This would enable the candidates to work on their limitations; and they would stand a better chance of landing a job in future, Mr. Reju said.
V. Ravichandran, CEO of Diya Systems, said the company was planning to hire about 100 tech-support representatives. The candidates not shortlisted for jobs would be told by the Human Resource Department of the company about their shortcomings.
Some candidates would be given a month's time to work on their shortcomings. They would then be called to the company headquarters in Mangalore, where they would be given a re-test; they would be selected if they did well in the test, he said.
S.D. Basavaraju, Employment Exchange Officer, welcomed the gathering.

Kumar Sangakkara's 34th century steered Sri Lanka to a commanding 314-5 against Bangladesh at stumps on the first day of the second Test at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium on Tuesday.
Sangakkara remained unbeaten on 160, his sixth century against the host, the most by any batsman against Bangladesh.
On a tough pitch, Sangakkara ensured Sri Lanka dominated most of the day until Bangladesh fought back with three wickets in the last session.
Jayawardene appeared to be heading towards his 34th century until he was trapped lbw by Mahmudullah, who spun the ball viciously.
With Jayawardene's dismissal, Bangladesh earned a ray of hope to bounce back in the match, but it was quickly evaporated by Sangakkara, who went on to his first century since March, off 146 balls, including a dozen boundaries and two sixes.
Shakib Al Hasan was the most successful bowler with 2-70, while Al-Amin Hossain, Sohag Gazi, and Mahmudullah picked up one wicket apiece.
Shakib gave Bangladesh slight relief in the late afternoon when he claimed Dinesh Chandimal and skipper Angelo Mathews in quick succession. While Chandimal, who scored 27, was done by the low bounce and impatience, Mathews also played a rash shot with just two overs to go for the day.
In the first session, Dimuth Karunaratne scored a lively 31 but was out to a loose shot, cutting a short and wide delivery from Hossain straight to point where Mahmudullah took the catch.
Kithuruwan Vithanage, yet to open his account, will resume the second day with Sangakkara.

The two biggest surprises this year in MLB have been the Pirates and the Indians. I traveled to Cleveland when the Orioles were there in April, and believe me when I say that the people there deserve this kind of run from the Indians. Pittsburgh's had their share of winning so nobody's overly happy for the fans in that city per se, however while the Pirates have now slipped under .500 again they're still a great story. Those are two franchises that have seemingly rebuilt themselves, yet the Orioles can't seem to do the same. I say that they've rebuilt themselves; is that really true? One could argue that those teams might have caught lightning in a bottle in a sense given that they're practically devoid of superstar players (aside from maybe Grady Sizemore of the Indians). When I was in Cleveland in April many of the people with whom I spoke seemed to indicate frustration in the fact that the Indians hadn't done anything in the free agent market. In fact, they said that they felt the Orioles were doing it the right way in that they brought along their players through their system and signed guys like Lee and Guerrero as support. Most of those people were convinced that the Indians would eventually fade and the O's would probably return to respectability. Yet at the end of the day, who's going to have egg on their face?
A "friend" of mine who happens to root for the Yankees says that my arguement about injuries is pointless because what that means is that the O's don't have a good minor league system with guys to replace the starters. (My counterpoint to that is when you've syphoned all the way down to someone from double-A or even single-A being your next guy up, what are you supposed to expect? Those guys are at that level for a reason in that they aren't ready to be big league players.) However it's fair to point out that all but one of the Orioles' farm teams (Norfolk) is in first place. If the Orioles have a poor farm system, I'd hate to see what people would say about the rest of the teams' systems! So that has to lead to the question of is there more than meets the eye? I suppose what I'm saying is are there problems in the clubhouse?
It seems to me that there's very little possibility of that at first glance. Yet let's look at the big fact here; the O's can't seem to properly rebuild. If there are problems in the clubhouse, I highly doubt that they're of the nature that guys dislike each other or there's a problem child. The Orioles come across as a very professional group. They go about their business, come to the park each day, play the game, and go home. Yesterday when Mark Reynolds hit a rare homer into the club level of Camden Yards (the sixth-longest in the history of the stadium), he didn't really get overly excited. When asked about it after the game, he said that it really didn't matter because it was still only one run and ultimately the Orioles lost the game. I can't help but think that if a player on two teams to the north of Baltimore had done that, we'd still be hearing about it next spring. That's called professionalism, and I think it's becoming more and more rare in sports these days. However...
...is that in effect the problem in the clubhouse? Last night when I watched the Sunday nighter between Boston and NY, the Red Sox won on a walk off hit in the last of the tenth. They piled on each other as if they had won the penant. Teams like the Indians seem to get genuinely excited when they win. Even the Washington Nationals, who don't really have anymore skill or talent than the Orioles, seem to wear their hearts on their sleeves. So does this give teams an edge over the Orioles who at times seem to have no pizzaz? I'm not a psychologist, and I don't really buy into the whole argument about psychology in sports. However teams like the Red Sox would probably argue that the fact that they're so free with themselves and they throw caution to the wind when it comes to their emotions gives them an added edge. Baseball has always been characterized by professionalism in that celebrations aren't really encouraged. When the Orioles win a game, they tend to just walk off the field after going through the high-five line. Yesterday when Drew Storen of the Nationals made the final out in their victory over Colorado, he pumped his fist. In my view that's busch league; however does it give a team an added edge?
I guess what I'm saying is that I have to wonder if an attitude (hich I personally support I might add) as such is sucking the blood out of the Oriole team. The O's won a big game on Saturday night in grand fashion. Yet they couldn't tap into that momentum and carry it over to yesterday. When I say that I support that attitude, what I mean is that I'm a traditionalist. Baseball's a stoic game, and it used to be said that overexcuberance showed up the opponent. Yet the teams that seem to be throwing that kind of thing to the birds are the ones that are winning. So am I changing my tune towards showing emotion on the field? I'm not sure; it's something I'm struggling with to say the least. However, the O's dealt Derrek Lee before the deadline due in part to the fact that he hadn't produced quite what they thought he would. In his Pirate debut (his first game away from the Orioles), he homered twice.

Watch Pierce Brosnan attempt to play GoldenEye 007 with Jimmy Fallon
By Matthew Bennett, Associate Editor
Posted on August 20, 2014 AT 03:39am
Posted on August 20, 2014 AT 03:39am
James Bond actor Pierce Brosnan got a chance to play GoldenEye 007 last night with Jimmy Fallon, and let's just say that it didn't go too well for the man with a license to kill.
To many GoldenEye 007 is the pinnacle of first-person shooters, and it appears that talk show host Jimmy Fallon is also a major fan. So when he had Brosnan on, he just had to fulfill a dream and play a round of Rare's shooter with him.
I won't spoil how it went, but I'll tell you that Brosnan stated before playing: "I played it once and shot myself in the foot."
GoldenEye 007 was released in 1997 for Nintendo 64, and will be 17 years old next week.

NVIDIA GeForce2 MX Preview - Specifications
The GeForce2 MX brings the benefits of a second generation Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) to the mainstream computer. It's based on GeForce technology which includes per-pixel shading, cube environment mapping and texture compression all of which are designed to increase the realism of graphics in 3D games. As for performance, don't expect the GeForce2 MX to blow away the GeForce2 GTS in a leading edge 3D game such as Quake3 Arena, as there's more to the GeForce2 MX than meets the eye.
And while your boss may not appreciate the after hours multi-player deathmatch over the company LAN, there are a host of features that make the GeForce2 MX a solid contender in the corporate market.
Let's take a look at the specifications of the GeForce2 MX. Comparisons are made to the GeForce 256, which made it's debut in the fall of 1999, and the GeForce2 GTS.
GeForce2 MX Specifications
NVIDIA has taken the GeForce2 GTS GPU and combined it with less expensive Single Data Rate (SDR) memory. This combination will allow OEMs to manufacture low-cost transform and lighting enabled graphics cards. Memory bandwidth of the GeForce2 MX is 2.7GB/sec which pales in comparison to the GTS's 5.3GB/sec. To keep the cost of the GeForce2 MX at a minimum, NVIDIA has no immediate plans to use the faster and more expensive Dual Data Rate (DDR) memory.
The word from NVIDIA is that the GeForce2 MX offers performance on par with the GeForce 256 GPU. For next generation content, the GeForce2 MX will offer better performance on applications that make extensive use of transform and lighting or per-pixel shading capabilities.
The GeForce2 MX has two rendering pipelines capable of processing two textures in a clock cycle. NVIDIA failed to disclose the core clock speed as they may have felt it's not an important measure of the GeForce2 MX's features. With two pixel and two texture pipelines (four texels or textured pixels) and a fill rate of 700 million texels per second, the clock speed can easily be computed. This can be done by dividing the textured fill rate by the number of rendering pipelines: 700 Megatexels / 2 texels / 2 pixels or 175MHz.
Hardware Options - Clock Frequency Adjustments
Interestingly, you can see references to the code name NV11 in various areas of the latest Detonator driver control panel.
GeForce2 MX Display Properties
The GeForce2 MX supports the PCI bus as well as AGP 1X, 2X, and 4X (including Fast Writes and Execute Mode) and will be available in 16MB and 32MB versions. The RAMDAC runs at 350Hz which provides flicker free display at high resolutions, the highest of which is 2048x1546 @75Hz. The GeForce2 MX runs on the Intel Pentium II, Celeron, Pentium III, AMD K6, and K7 processors.
The GeForce2 MX consumes only 4 watts of power and doesn't require a cooling fan or heatsink.
Certain features of the GeForce2 MX were carried over from the more powerful GeForce2 GTS. However, there are specific features that are exlusive to the GeForce2 MX which are covered on the following page.
GeForce2 MX Features
Already present in the GeForce2 are NVIDIA's shading rasterizer (NSR) and HDTV processor which provides full-screen, full-frame playback of 720p HDTV and DVD resolutions. Combined with a high performance software MPEG-2 decoder and a digital TV receiver, the GeForce2 MX is a cost effective and high quality HDTV solution.
The drivers for the GeForce2 MX are based on NVIDIA's Unified Driver Architecture.

Readings for the second Saturday in Advent:
Then stood up Elias the prophet as fire, and his word burned like a lamp.
He brought a sore famine upon them, and by his zeal he diminished their number.
By the word of the Lord he shut up the heaven, and also three times brought down fire.
O Elias, how wast thou honoured in thy wondrous deeds! and who may glory like unto thee! . . .
Who was taken up in a whirlwind of fire, and in a chariot of fiery horses:
Who wast ordained for reproofs in their times, to pacify the wrath of the Lord's judgment, before it brake forth into fury, and to turn the heart of the father unto the son, and to restore the tribes of Jacob.
Blessed are they that saw thee, and slept in love; for we shall surely live. (Sirach 48:1-4, 9-11, KJV)
And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen again from the dead.
And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the scribes that Elias must first come?
And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things.
But I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed. Likewise shall also the Son of man suffer of them.
Then the disciples understood that he spake unto them of John the Baptist. (Matthew 17:9-13, KJV)

Tuesday evening update (May 26): Campbell University librarian Steve Bahnaman's run on the ABC game show "500 Questions" came to an end on Tuesday night's episode when he got three questions wrong in a row.
But before he reached that point, he got a lot of questions right -- a lot of questions. He won $110,000 and reached question No. 168 -- the best of any contestant so far. What a great run, Steve, and congratulations!
Sorry. #500questions

Monday evening update (May 25): Campbell University librarian Steve Bahnaman told us he did pretty well on ABC's "500 Questions," but he didn't tell us he did THIS well. On Monday night's episode, he built on his record-setting stint on the game show to reach question No. 149 and extend his winnings to $74,000 with $34,000 still in play.
The episode also ended with him having two strikes, though. That means that when he's back on the air Tuesday night, if he gets the next question wrong, he's booted from the game. If he gets it right, he continues and will take home at least $108,000.
#CampbellProud of what I've been able to do so far! See what's coming tomorrow. https://t.co/eThZPq7Gvb

Friday evening update (May 22): Campbell University librarian Steve Bahnaman became the first contestant on ABC's game show "500 Questions" to reach at least 100 questions in Friday's night episode. He ended the night at question No. 106 and with $69,000 won -- the best showing of any contestant on the show so far. His run continues on Monday night when the show returns. Way to go, Steve!
Friday morning update (May 22): Campbell librarian Steve Bahnaman did well on "500 Questions" last night. He made it through the first set of 50 questions and won $42,000. He has the chance to win even more in tonight's episode as he tries to become the first contestant to get through 100 questions. The episode will air from 8 p.m. to 9 p.m. on ABC.
After you watch Steve's run on "500 Questions," keep your channel set to ABC for "Shark Tank," airing 9 p.m. to 10 p.m. On tonight's episode, you'll find Campbell alumna Ellie Brown '96 making a pitch to the sharks. She is the co-founder of evREwares, which makes and sells wearable fabric stickers.
Don't mess with our librarian! #CampbellProud @campbelledu

BUIES CREEK -- When ABC airs its new TV game show "500 Questions" tonight, Thursday, May 21, beginning at 8 p.m., keep an eye out for Steve Bahnaman, the reference and electronic resources librarian with Campbell University's Wiggins Memorial Library. He will be a contestant on tonight's episode.
Hosted by CNN's Richard Quest, the seven-night game show event premiered Wednesday, May 20, and will air through Thursday, May 28. Depending on Bahnaman's results tonight, he may be on Friday, too.
"I'm a hardcore trivia guy, and I know so many people who have been on game shows," Bahnaman said. "It's not that I want to be on TV and be famous. I wanted to do it to prove myself in a place where everyone can see it."
In a press release, ABC billed "500 Questions" as a "genius game show" and "the ultimate test, where intellect, strategy and stamina are all equally essential in order to win." Contestants aim to answer as many questions correctly as they can through multiple rounds of 50 questions. If they miss three questions in a row, they're out of the game.
"It's an endurance game," said Bahnaman, who was recruited for the game through a website for trivia buffs. "You try to go as long as you can."
The show was created by Mike Darnell, the president of Warner Bros. Unscripted and Alternative Television, and Mark Burnett, creator of "Survivor" and "Shark Tank."
As far as how Bahnaman fared on "500 Questions," he can't disclose that yet. Just watch. In the meantime, read this edited Q&A with him below and watch him near the beginning of the show's promo.
They recruited through websites where people play trivia online, not some of the better known sites and apps but more the underground apps for hardcore nuts like me.
It's a TV game show, and they can ask about anything they want, from physics to TV shows. So, you're just trying to predict. I did do some flash cards and some studying. Otherwise, I'm in the permanent state of readiness. It's kind of like if you asked someone on our basketball team to go out and play on TV. It's like, "OK."
The good news is they gave us a lot of practice. They let us play the game a couple of times during audition call backs, and you also got to see other people play the game. Everybody was really clear on how it worked.
I was always drawn to books that had a lot of facts in them, like National Geographic Books. In college [at Emory University], I was on the Quiz Bowl team, and that's when I started doing what's called quizzing. Trivia to most people means going to the bar and answering questions with your friends. Quizzing is more taking written tests, doing crazy trivia games, competing against people from England, and going to conventions. It's the equivalent of being a crossword nerd; but instead of being a nut for words, you're nuts for knowledge. The good news is that it helps my work as a librarian.
I get all kinds of questions about all different kind of things. It turns out that knowing a little bit about a lot of things helps me do my job.
I have a Master of Theological Studies as well. The plan initially was to get a Ph.D. in religion, but to do that requires you caring a lot about a specific theologian or a single thing and study that for five years as hard as you can. That ended up not being something I wanted to do. I realized that what I really liked was research, being around research and helping people with research. I worked in the library as an undergrad and through grad school, and saw that was a good fit for me.

Forget Ferris Bueller. Forget Judd Nelson in The Breakfast Club. The greatest student-teacher showdown in modern theater pits Sean Penn's spacy Spicoli, against Ray Walston's crusty Mr. Hand in Fast Times at Ridgemont High.
It's a three-round bout, with Spicoli's high school diploma at stake. Their classic exchanges cemented Cameron Crowe's reputation as Hollywood's hippest screenwriter.
Mr. Hand, the ultimate disciplinarian, meets Spicoli, the ultimate "surfer dude" stoner, on the first day of school, and guess who is late.
Round 1: 'Hey, I Know That Dude …'
Knock, knock, knock.
Mr. Hand: Yes?
Spicoli appears. One student remarks, "This guy has been stoned since the third grade!"
Spicoli: I'm registered in this class. Mr. Hand: (sarcastically) What class? Spicoli: This is U.S. history. I see a globe right there. Mr. Hand: Oh, really? Spicoli: May I come in? Mr. Hand: Puh-lease! I get so lonely when the third attendance bell rings and all my kids are not here. Spicoli: Sorry I'm late. It's just like … this new schedule is totally confusing … (losing his train of thought, he points to another student) Hey, I know that dude! …
Spicoli hands Mr. Hand his attendance card.
Mr. Hand: Mr. Spic-oli? Spicoli: That's the name they gave me. …
Mr. Hand tears Spicoli's attendance card to shreds.
Spicoli: Hey bud, what's your problem?
Mr. Hand: No problem at all. I think you know where the front office is.
Spicoli: You d--k!
Round 2: Mr. Pizza Guy Cometh
Round 2 finds Spicoli antagonizing Mr. Hand by eating in class. Like Round 1, Round 2 begins with Mr. Hand being interrupted by a knock at the door. The new arrival disrupts a lecture on U.S.-Cuba relations.
Knock, knock, knock. Mr. Hand: Who is it? Pizza Delivery Man: Mr. Pizza Guy. Mr. Hand: Again? Pizza Delivery Man: (Slowly) Mr. Pizza Guy. (He walks into the classroom and addresses the students directly as Mr. Hand stares, mouth agape.) Who ordered the double cheese and sausage? Spicoli: Uh, here dude! Mr. Hand: Am I hallucinating here? Just what in the hell do you think you are going? Spicoli: Learning about Cuba and having some food. Mr. Hand: You are on dangerous ground here. You are causing a major disturbance on my time! Spicoli: You know, I have been thinking about this, Mr. Hand. If I'm here and you are here, doesn't that make it our time?
Mr. Hand is momentarily blindsided by Spicoli's simple point. But before Spicoli can enjoy his snack, Mr. Hand decides to share his pizza with the class.
Round 3: Aloha, Mr. Hand The final confrontation shifts the action from Mr. Hand's classroom to Spicoli's trailer park bedroom, just as he takes that final bong hit in preparation for senior prom. Now, it is Mr. Hand's turn for a surprise attack. Once again, it begins with a knock at the door.
Knock, Knock.

The saddest part of this, is the people who bought the whole series on VHS, who then bought the whole series again on DVD.. will happily hand over another grand to Paramount/Viacom/CBS (whoever) for another set on BluRay.
That did kill me. I paid approx $175 for all five seasons + the movies of Babylon 5. I guess, like "Star Wars", stamping "Star Trek" on something increases it's value ten fold.

We address the problem of compression for wireless sensor networks, where each of the sensors has limited power, and acquires data that should be sent to a remote central node. The final goal is to have a reconstructed version of the sampled field at the central node, with the sensors spending as little energy as possible. We propose a distributed wavelet algorithm, based on the lifting scheme, as a means to decorrelate data at the nodes by exchanging information between neighboring sensors. A key result of our work is that by using a locally adaptive distributed transform it is possible to optimize overall power consumption by operating at the right trade-off point between local processing and transmission costs.

A prominent education leader in Milwaukee was fired Monday from his role heading up a major new charter school operation opening this fall after news he was arrested Friday on accusations of sexually assaulting a child.
Ronn Johnson, 46, was arrested on suspicion of child enticement, first-degree sexual assault of a child, sexual assault by a school staff member, sexual assault of a child (repeated acts), third-degree sexual assault and exposing genitals to a child, according to jail records.
No charges have been filed. The Milwaukee County district attorney's office said Monday that the case had not been referred yet. Johnson remained in jail Monday afternoon on $150,000 bail.
Johnson was vice president of education for the Midwest region for Universal Companies, a nonprofit charter-school management company from Pennsylvania that is expanding to Milwaukee and opening its first campuses here next month.
Johnson was also a longtime administrator at YMCA Young Leaders Academy, a charter school he helped launch that grew to two campuses.
Universal released a statement Monday saying it had terminated Johnson after learning of his arrest late Friday night.
"After learning of these most serious allegations and the recent arrest of Mr. Johnson late Friday night, we at Universal Companies and the Universal Academy for the College Bound in the city of Milwaukee are extremely disheartened," said Rahim Islam, the president and CEO of the company.
A local spokesperson for Universal said a ribbon-cutting ceremony for the new schools scheduled for Wednesday will go ahead as planned.
Johnson grew up in Milwaukee and graduated from Marquette University before starting his teaching career in 1989 at Lee Elementary School in the Milwaukee Public Schools system.
He helped launch YMCA Young Leaders Academy, an independent K-8 charter school at 1350 W. North Ave., in 2002. The school is part of the YMCA but operates under a contract with the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.
Johnson recently earned his doctoral degree through Columbia University's Urban Education Leaders Program and has won a variety of local awards for his work in the field of education.
At a charter-school conference this year at Marquette, Johnson talked about the improbability of his own success.
"I grew up at 7th and Keefe, but according to statistics, my picture should be hanging in the local police station, not in the halls of Columbia," he said.

Having trouble paying for your heating bills but don't qualify for other assistance programs? Help is on the way.
With the approval of the Public Utilities Commission, Columbia Gas of Ohio has created a $2.1 million payment assistance fund to help customers who do not qualify for existing energy assistance programs.
These funds will help customers with incomes between 175 and 200 percent of federal poverty guidelines, according to PUCO.
For a family of four, the household income could be up to $42,400 per year.
Columbia Gas of Ohio president Jack Partridge said in a news release the company is pleased to offer extra assistance in tough times.
"We understand that current economic conditions, with job cuts being announced almost daily, are making it tough on people, even those who don't qualify for traditional energy assistance programs," Partridge said.
Columbia also announced today that additional money is available for customers with incomes below 175 percent of federal poverty guidelines who have exhausted all other available funds, such as HEAP assistance. The company will distribute $1.85 million through the fund over the next five winter heating seasons.
Customers who believe they may be eligible for help should contact their local community action commission.
Customers in Erie and Huron counties may contact the Erie Huron Counties Community Action Commission at (419) 626-4320. They may also call the Columbia Customer Contact Center at (800) 344-4077 for information on where to apply.
