Carrie Underwood's role in the upcoming made-for-TV version of The Sound of Music will not be a knock-off of Julie Andrews' in the 1965 film.
The country singer told People that Andrews is like royalty and there is no way she's trying to compete with her iconic take on Maria von Trapp. "It would be like you're beneath her," Underwood said.
Adding, "I think once people tune in and realize that [our version] is not a remake, they won't compare it to the movie."
Underwood's version, set to air later this year on NBC, is based on the original Broadway show and will feature her singing live. The live performance will certainly be challenging for Underwood, who previously appeared on a 2010 episode of How I Met Your Mother and played a church leader in the 2011 movie, Soul Surfer, but she says she's up for it.
"It's a giant challenge, which I appreciate," she said. "Everybody keeps saying, 'People don't do this anymore, singing live!'"
Though, Underwood is keeping busy with work, she admitted to the mag that she would put her career on hold if that's what her husband of two years, NHL star Mike Fisher, wanted.

We recently told you about the new man in Adele's life, Simon Konecki, when they were visiting Florida's Everglades. But now the UK's Metro is reporting that the Someone Like You singer may be in for a whole new wave of heartache, claiming that Konecki is a married man.
According to Metro, 36-year-old Simon Konecki was married to fashion stylist Clary Fisher in 2004 and the couple have a daughter who is five. They do, however, concede that Konecki and Fisher are separated.
But that's not the case if you ask Adele. She took to her blog to set the record straight for her fans with the following post:
"This is the first and last time I will comment on the details of my relationship with Simon. Contrary to reports and headlines in the press today, Simon is divorced and has been for 4 years. Everyone in our lives separately and together wish us nothing but the best, and vice versa. These are the facts. Take care and see you all in February xx"
As we previously let you know, Adele will be returning to the stage after her vocal setback on at the BRIT Awards at London's O2 Arena on February 21st. There is also a rumor circulating that she will be the opening act for the GRAMMY Awards on February 12th.

Star Trek, after Darkness: What is next for the franchise? July 11, 2013by Joseph Dickerson , Filed under: Editorial,Star Trek Into Darkness , trackback
As readers of this site know, Star Trek Into Darkness opened domestically and internationally late Spring and has earned over $443 million dollars. This is a success for Paramount, albeit a modest one. It's not a flop, by any measure… but it's not a home run, either. It's a solid double or triple, but Paramount (like all studios do with summer blockbusters) was swinging for the fences. So, what's next? Well, to quote Donald Rumsfeld, there are some "known knowns" and "known unknowns." Let's cover what we know, and spend some time theorizing what comes next.
"Modest?" You may be thinking, "How is $443 million a 'modest' success?"
It's a modest success for several reasons. First, it cost almost $190 million to make, and Paramount spent a considerable amount of money on advertising above and beyond the production cost (at least $50 million, by one estimate). Second, not all of that $443 million goes to Paramount – a significant percentage goes to the theaters that show the film (1/3rd to 1/2, depending on what is negotiated and how long the film runs). Finally, while it exceeded the International ticket sales of the first film, it did not have the 2X multiplier against domestic box office that other summer films (like Iron Man 3 or Fast and Furious 6) achieved.
Add to that the demographics of the people who paid to see Star Trek Into Darkness (only 25% were under 25, much less than the 35% that the first film attracted according to The Wrap), and you can definitely see that things were not as hoped.
The 50th Anniversary
2016 will mark the 50th anniversary of the debut of Star Trek, and releasing a new Star Trek film that year is a no-brainer – Like Skyfall showed last year, there's a lot of benefit that can be gained from releasing a film that ties into an anniversary year. Will it happen? Paramount has not yet officially stated that there will be a third Star Trek film, which is surprising – they announced a sequel to Star Trek shortly after that film opened. However, co-writer Damon Lindelof has stated in interviews the film is going ahead. Paramount is rumored to be looking for a new director to replace JJ Abrams (who is committed to directing the next Star Wars film). Names of directors that are purportedly being have been Joe Cornish (Attack the Block), Matt Reaves (Cloverfield). Joseph Kosinski (Tron: Legacy) and Alfonso Cuarón (Children of Men). Neill Blomkamp, the director of District 9, was also a rumored name on Paramount's short list, but he recently stated in an interview he is not interested in directing Star Trek or any other franchise film.
They [Paramount] are firm about having a movie out by the 50th anniversary [in 2016] and we are all trying to see if we can all make it work together. — Orci and Kurtzman in an interview with TrekMovie.com
TrekMovie spoke with Trek writers Orci and Kurtzman who'd like to see a 2016/50th anniversary film happen
Bad Robot
At this point, it looks like Bad Robot will continue to be involved in any potential sequel to Into Darkness, and the writers of the film have discussed wanting to bring Klingons back as the main villains of any third film. Since Bad Robot is JJ Abram's production company, he will presumably have some input into the story and creative decisions even with his commitment to Star Wars Episode VII.
Above and beyond that, the ongoing Star Trek comic book (supervised by Trek movie writer Bob Orci) will continue to tell new stories set after Into Darkness and adapt classic TOS episodes. As the comic laid hints as to what would happen Into Darkness, it may be worth keeping an eye on for "clues" as to what will take place in the third film.
A lower-budget sequel?
How will Paramount respond to the modest success of Star Trek Into Darkness? Possibly by reducing the budget of the third film. This could be a good thing, in that a reduced budget could increase focus on telling a tight story and on character moments. A Star Trek sequel with a reduced budget wouldn't be anything new – Paramount cut the budget for the first Trek sequel, and in return we got The Wrath of Khan. Less money doesn't mean reduced quality – sometimes budgetary constraints can produce creative solutions and better ideas.
A return to television?
Star Trek started on television, and many fans think that Star Trek is better suited to episodic TV than to films (former Star Trek writer and show runner Ronald D. Moore has also said as much in interviews). Writer/producer Bryan Fuller, who is currently working on the series Hannibal, has repeatedly said he would love to helm a new Star Trek series.
Will it happen? Maybe, but don't count on it.
Thanks to a large splitting up of Viacom properties in 2005, two different companies effectively own the Star Trek franchise: CBS Studios now owns Star Trek as a television property and Paramount Pictures owns the film properties. While they have a relationship where the "Star Trek" name and characters are cross licensed to one another, there are two different managements that exist and these managements would have to work together to make a new Star Trek series. This won't be easy, because corporations are… interesting places (think Dilbert). Doing Star Trek on TV again would require a significant investment in sets and special effects before a single episode is filmed, and it would take a big commitment for any network or cable channel to green-light such a production.
An animated series has been rumored for some time, and such a series would cost less than a live-action series… but there are challenges there as well. What is the target audience? Will it be a "dumbed-down" version of Trek for younger viewers? Or will it be a more intelligent series, like the recent Star Wars: Clone Wars show? When would it be set, and would it attempt to bring in recognized voice actors (like Patrick Stewart) to appeal to fans?
A lot of moving parts have to come together to make a successful Star Trek series. Is it worth trying? Absolutely. But, as noted above, there are challenges.
Continued merchandising, video releases and tie-ins
There are multiple companies producing Star Trek merchandise: Diamond Select, Simon and Schuster, Round 2 Models, Her Universe and more. New games, posters, collectibles and clothing items will continue to be made, all intended to separate fans from their hard-earned Latinum… err, dollars. CBS is busy remastering all the Star Trek: The Next Generation seasons, and have recently started releasing Enterprise on Blu-ray. A high definition remastering of Deep Space Nine may also occur, depending on how the Blu-ray sets of ST:TNG and Enterprise sell.
However, things aren't all rosy when it comes to merchandising. Star Trek the Video Game released to tie-in with the new film flopped, with tepid sales and horrible reviews. Hasbro released Star Trek building sets (through its Kre-O line) to tie-in with the new Star Trek film, though soft sales may halt the creation of additional sets. Finally, the soft economy (along with on-line streaming services) has reduced "catalog" sales on all home video titles, and this has impacted the sales of season and movie sets.
While there's a lot of fan-centered merchandise on the market for the various franchises, there are also a whole lot of Star Trek fans out there… and many of them will continue to purchase Trek-related products to line their shelves and display cabinets for the foreseeable future.
Ongoing fan productions
While it may be at least three years since we get new Trek on the big screen, there IS new Trek being made. In edition to the Star Trek: Phase II production, Star Trek Continues recently premiered to much praise. While both productions have some shot-comings (due to it's low budget) both are entertaining original takes on the original series, telling new stories with the involvement of some of the creative team from the original series (such as DC Fontana and David Gerrold). This is in addition to other "one-off" fan efforts and older shows that have ceased production. So check out these interesting takes on the Star Trek universe.
Star Trek lives!
Star Trek is still a viable franchise, with fans around the world excited to share their love of the series with their fellow Trekkers (or Trekkies, depending on your preference). While some fans were frustrated with some of the creative decisions in the latest film, many others enjoyed the film. The reason for such strong reactions, both pro and con, is simple: People LOVE Star Trek, and it holds a special place in people's hearts. And as long as it provokes such a passionate reaction, Star Trek will never die.
Stay tuned to TrekMovie for the latest news about the potential third film and all things Trek.
Joseph Dickerson will be speaking about this topic and Treknology at the upcoming official Star Trek Convention in Las Vegas. He writes about technology design and pop culture at http://www.josephdickerson.com
Something NEW for a change – Don't save the whales again!!!!!
New is what is needed. Beyond TNG. We can do so much better than anything that came before – and with Roddenberry stories. Set it way out there – where no one has gone before.
having a prancy brit…. with weird bangs, play KAHN probably didnt help either.
Oh and We must have a Movie for the 50th Anniversary of Star Trek. Not to do so would be. Illogical.
I'd love to see more Klingons in the sequel.
As for television, I think it would be great if they had Ron Moore develop and write a new show.
Almost 450 Million at the box office is considered just a "moderate" hit while the predecessor was considered a "great" hit with 385 Million.
How does that fit together?
"Paramount Home Video is busy remastering all the Star Trek: The Next Generation seasons, and have recently started re-releasing Enterprise in HD. "
They're being remastered CBS Digital and CBS Home Entertainment.
I actually read this whole article. Very interesting. Well done Joseph!
Absolutely Star Trek should be back on TV. Whatever the difficulties involved in Television, the franchise will not survive long on one movie every 3-4 years. I'm already tiring of that format.
The fan productions alone show that it CAN be done very well on a low budget. With the resources of even a modest network show, it can easily be done better that those.
I think it's pretty obvious that the general audience just had a hard time getting as excited about the darker, terrorism-themed STID.
The end of the first movie promised a fun, space exploration adventure movie… not some dark and gritty Khan revenge thriller. In the trailers STID basically looked like every OTHER overblown action movie out there, and didn't have the unique enough feel that the first movie had.
If the third movie does come out in 2016, it should be a something epic to mark the 50th Anniversary. Since the first movie saw the creation of this alternate timeline, the threat should be the destruction of the timeline and maybe all timelines including the prime timeline. This would give them the opportunity to bring back old faces throughout franchise (Picard, Shatner's Kirk, etc.) where they all have to work together to save the Star Trek multiverse.
Basically it should be a cross between a Doctor Who Anniversary special and DC's Crisis On Infinite Earths
Genesis, calling it now.
The Next Trek Movie should have Angry Tribbles as the Villan. Lol.
No matter how well a film does worldwide, they still take notice when a sequel 's domestic gross falls below the first film's.
In this case it's about $34 million below. For a sequel to a huge hit like the Trek09, the gross should be a lot HIGHER than that.
#2. That argument doesn't work when Fast Six and Iron Man 3, both heavily watched by the younger demographic made SIGNIFICANTLY more than Trek did. Fast Six is at $700 mil worldwide, while Iron Man 3 is at $1.2 bil, and both films opened internationally first like Trek. Piracy has a smaller impact than people think.
"What is the target audience? Will it be a "dumbed-down" version of Trek for younger viewers?"
If Star Trek is still in the hands of anyone in JJ's High Court, you should already know that answer.
Agree that while the franchise is viable, there are weeds in the garden. Gotta wonder how jumpy Paramount is about franchises, as it's been noted that worldwide franchise box office is down about 20% this year, Disney's meltdown on John Carter and Lone Ranger, both projects that they intended to be franchises, and Paramount resuscitating Terminator (with Arnold, Mr. Box Office cyanide) involved – a franchise better left dead at this point. I can see wisdom in better management, but it's foolish now to treat Trek as an afterthought.
So what's a "trekker" anyway? Does the old definition – "a trekker: a trekkie who's ashamed of being a trekkie" – still work?
As for Trek in TV – there's a ton of TV-style Trek made by fans, and it is not amateur production anymore. Do we really need any "official" series? Many households got rid of their TV sets anyway, everything is on the internet these days.
Good article! Well a lot of money can be saved by getting rid of the 3D. I loved it in IMAX 3D but it's not totally necessary. If a smaller budget means more character moments, then this is a good thing. For the 50th anniversary, we don't need huge explosions, we need a huge story! I absolutely love STID but let's do something we absolutely haven't seen before.
I know a lot of people will disagree but a 50th anniversary flick must be a full franchise epic.
You want to crack half a billion? Get shatner and Stewart involved. Period.
This was an idea for a film, but I think this would be better suited for a series:
Done right, this could be amazing. It could end up being what ENT should've been.
What is:
"Modest?" You may be thinking, "How is $43 million a 'modest' success?"
Referring to?

"I know a lot of people will disagree but a 50th anniversary flick must be a full franchise epic.
You want to crack half a billion? Get shatner and Stewart involved. Period."
Agree, the 2016 movie should be an epic Trek story than span both timelines. Enough with dumb stories or Kirk the skirt chaser. I want to see Captain Kirk who actually leads his crew & think with his mind.
And I think it will be amazing to have Shatner & Stewart in that movie.
I think now we wont see a new Trek TV series until after the third movie since now it looks like STID just did ok. Probably wont be until 2017 or 2018 when we would get a new series. Imagine the SFX by then? Maybe they will be awesome and cheaper to make? I wonder if they could look real enough not to even need sets? Would doing green screen save money on production?
Terrific piece!
Very strong overview of the overall!
Dump Godawful Robot.
Budget about $70 million.
Recast Kirk, Scotty, Uhura and Sulu.
Find a director who has more than lens flares in his repertoire. Someone new and unknown.
Hey, I like Shatner and Stewart as much as the next guy, but why does the big anniversary movie need them? Did Skyfall need Connery and Moore to be a success?
Yeah, no more alternate universe. I don't care about these characters, the ship or even Earth because it doesn't impact anything. They could blow it all up…and so what?
Let's get back to the prime universe. It doesn't have to be the same pace or tone of the last few series. There's a lot they could do, without rebooting anything or invalidating history.
@ 33. Vultan – July 11, 2013
"Hey, I like Shatner and Stewart as much as the next guy, but why does the big anniversary movie need them?"
Because the current crew is young & not stars yet. For the anniversary , they really need to bring in some of Star Trek legends like Shatner & Stewart.
@33 – no as Connery and Moore were both playing the same Bond before the series was rebooted with Craig
that said i think Connery was originally a possibility to appear in Skyfall in the caretakers role
Ahmed – July 11, 2013
"Because the current crew is young & not stars yet. For the anniversary , they really need to bring in some of Star Trek legends like Shatner & Stewart."
Uh, no. Leonard Nimoy's appearance in "Star Trek" was excellent, because of Spock Prime's necessary role in the reboot. His cameo in "Star Trek Into Darkness", on the other hand, was not needed, and felt forced.
I just think they're risking going to the well too many times by continually writing cameos for old cast members.
We need the following
1) TV show – after voyager (maybe even mention what happened to them when they got back)
2) an ORIGINAL movie. I was pissed when I found out who was in this film and have yet to watch it as a result.
Brilliant I totally agree the BORG should defo be in the next film.
the original series back in the 60s never had the effects to do the borg back then and kirk and spock have never encounted them before, plus imagine how many lens flaires they could do.
plus all those red,blue,green and yellow lights.

I totally agree with you regarding the promotion of the film in U.S. … apparently interviews in those talk shows that were more interested in talking nonsense about nothing than to talk about the film not very helpful!
They made the world premiere of "Into Darkness" in London without live stream and in LA, too … Did anyone see how fantastic was the premiere of Skyfall in London, with live stream?…and, without junket press in US, too!
Btw, the premiere of STID in Berlin was great… and, I know because of the live stream! ;-)

YouView loses trademark case but has 'no intention of changing name'
New TV service YouView has lost a high court appeal against breach of trademark and may face litigation by Total Ltd, owner of the Your View brand.
Telecommunications firm Total uses Your View for its online billing services and trademarked the name in 2009. You View applied for its own trademark in 2010 and the judge, Mr Justice Floyd, decided that the TV service co-owned by several partners - including the BBC, ITV, TalkTalk and BT - had a "confusingly similar" name.
Even though it has lost the trademark infringement appeal, YouView says it will not be changing its name because Your View is a business-to-business billing service and not a TV service and therefore it believes it can deflect any further legal challenges.
Read: Humax DTR-T1000 YouView PVR review
"YouView has no intention of changing its name," said a spokesman. "This matter is complex and subject to a number of ongoing legal actions and will be settled in the courts."
Total's managing director, Stuart Baikie, has other ideas however. "We will soon be taking further infringement action in the high court, likely to include seeking an injunction limiting their use of the brand, damages and costs, as we believe that they are still acting without regard to our registered mark and business interests," he said.

BBC blasted for spending thousands on election boat party after 'dumbed down' celebrity-studded event irritates millions
The BBC has been lambasted for its 'embarrassingly awful 'election boat party - after spending more than £30,000 on a celebrity-studded evening hosted by director-general Mark Thompson.
Stars ranging from Piers Morgan to Joan Collins, Maureen Lipman, Fern Britton and Sir Ben Kingsley joined BBC chiefs on board a luxury yacht called the Silver Sturgeon, which was moored by the London Eye for the evening.
Millions watched as Andrew Neil chatted to the celebrities while guests, invited by Mr Thompson, milled about drinking free wine and enjoying BBC hospitality at a grand cost to the licence fee payer.
Joan Collins looks on in the background as Andrew Neil interviews David Starkey on board the BBC's glitzy party boat, free drinks spread across the tables
Millionaire stars Ben Kingsley and Bruce Forsyth join in the fun with Neil... at the licence fee payer's expense
By far the most cringeworthy moment of the evening came when Strictly Come Dancing host Bruce Forsyth shouted his catchphrase 'Nice to see you - to see you...' and waited for a lukewarm response from some of the guests, who eventually replied 'To see you nice.'
People were quick to slam the BBC as one annoyed viewer wrote: 'What really annoyed me was the coverage of that party on the boat. What a complete waste of licence payers' money.
'I have absolutely no interest in hearing the views of drunken celebs.Typical BBC self-indulgence.'
Another added: 'Yes, this was awful: embarrassing awful and so inappropriate. It felt wrong as soon as I saw the likes of Brucie and Ben Kingsley hanging about on the stairs.'
The BBC's own message point was bombarded with complaints as another viewer wrote: 'Absolutely disgraceful - giving these useless articles the oxygen of publicity.'
Let's party: Joan Collins and husband Percy Gibson arrive at the BBC election bash on the Silver Sturgeon
'Embarrassingly awful': Piers Morgan, left, and Bruce Forsyth leaving the party on the River Thames. Forsyth even shouted his catchphrase 'Nice to see you - to see you...'
While another viewer joked: 'Wish I'd known that a BBC party was in the offing.
'I too could have used my licence fee to invite some mates round and had a few drinks and talked about politics...'
Dame Kelly Holmes and comedian Dom Joly were also among the chosen few on board the yacht which was festooned by expensive flowers.
The Silver Sturgeon is advertised as 'chic, cool and contemporary' and boasts a stylish 150sqm open air teak deck with a Veuve-Clicquot Champagne bar.
The Daily Mail can reveal that the yacht costs £8,200 for four hours - and then £1,150 for every extra 30 minutes.
Alongside this, it costs £100 per half-an-hour for mooring.
This brings the evening's bill to £29,000, not withstanding the cost of drinks, canapes and floral arrangements.
chiefs are believed to have spent up to £15,000 on food and drink for
the boat party guests, who also included Michael Portillo, Ian Hislop,
Alistair Campbell, Michael Ashcroft and Lionel Barber.
As well as this, a BBC spokesman last night admitted that favoured guests had also been given a car home by the corporation.
Family affair: Richard Madeley and his daughter Chloe were also among the chosen few on board the luxury yacht
All smiles: Dragons' Den judge Theo Paphitis and actor Sir Ben Kingsley, right, would have enjoyed free flowing wine courtesy of licence fee payers
She said: 'This applied to a handful of people who had made contributions to the broadcast - in much the same vein as sometimes happen when guests come in to do interviews at Television Centre.'
spokesman defended the yacht hire, as she added: 'As part of our
election night coverage, we produced live interviews and broadcasts
throughout the night from a boat moored outside the London Eye,
discussing the election results with views of the House.
'Andrew Neil was talking to politicians, commentators and well-known personalities and opinion formers.
'The interviews were used across the BBC's output on the election, including the BBC One General Election Special, the Radio 4 and 5 Live's election night programmes as well as contributing to the World Service, BBC Scotland's, BBC Wales' and BBC Northern Ireland's coverage of the election night.'
The BBC's TV election coverage around the UK reached a total of 17.7 million viewers across its channels, the corporation said.
Self-indulgence: Athlete Dame Kelly Holmes, left, and comedian Dom Joly also enjoyed the hospitality of the BBC
Range of stars: TV presenters David Baddiel, left, and Ian Hislop from Have I Got News For You, arrive at the River Thames near the London Eye where the Silver Sturgeon was moored
overnight figures between 9.55pm and 2am showed that a peak audience of
6.6 million tuned in to watch David Dimbleby anchor Election 2010 on
various BBC channels.
The peak happened on BBC's Election
2010 programme around the time of the Houghton and Sunderland South
result, the first declaration of the night.
Election day saw
2.5 million UK visitors to the BBC Election website and more than four
million UK users of the BBC News website overall.
There were also more than three million views of news video by UK users on the BBC News site yesterday - higher than for any other day on record.
Luxurious: The BBC would have spent at least £45,000 on booking out the Silver Sturgeon for the evening, including drinks and food
Lavish: The yacht is advertised as 'chic, cool and contemporary' and boasts a stylish 150sqm open air teak deck with a Veuve-Clicquot Champagne bar
A BBC spokeswoman added that the BBC News website has been seeing 'unprecedented' levels of traffic today, with more than five million users since midnight and thousands of searches every minute on its constituency result pages.
BBC's Election 2010 programme: 17.7 million viewers
Channel 4's Alternative Election Night: 2.8 million viewers
ITV1's Election 2010 coverage: 2.5 million viewers
Helen Boaden, director of BBC News, said: 'This has been an extraordinarily exciting and important General Election campaign where audiences have relished BBC News output.'
Channel 4's Alternative Election Night was also hailed a big success, with the broadcaster saying it enjoyed a peak of 2.8 million viewers at 10.10pm.
The channel's satirical slant on the election, fronted by David Mitchell, Jimmy Carr and Lauren Laverne, went down particularly well among 16 to 34-year-olds, an age group often seen as difficult to engage in politics.
Channel 4 said 44 per cent of the audience was made up from this age group.
A Channel 4 spokeswoman said: 'Our aim was to provide a genuinely original alternative to the usual election night TV, and we're delighted that viewers responded by coming to the show, particularly younger viewers.'
Among the highlights of the marathon show was a Come Dine With Me special, featuring Edwina Currie, Brian Paddick, Derek Hatton and Rod Liddle as each held dinner parties which often saw rows between the guests.
ITV said ITV1's Election 2010 coverage peaked at 2.5 million viewers and from 9.55pm through to midnight coverage averaged 1.7 million.

State examines lawyer conduct in secret
Rules specify disclosure only with regulatory action
Why wouldn't the Office of Lawyer Regulation take action early this year against embattled Calumet County District Attorney Kenneth Kratz?
Wisconsin residents may never know.
The office, an arm of the state Supreme Court, operates under strict confidentiality rules meant to protect lawyers as well as those filing grievances against them, often their clients.
But there's been a growing chorus for the office, known as OLR, to either make an exception this time or revisit whether Kratz violated rules of professional conduct.
A day after Gov. Jim Doyle wondered publicly about the OLR's decision not to bring a complaint against Kratz, Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen's office released a letter Tuesday to OLR director Keith Sellen. It notes that OLR seems to have considered the Department of Justice's own decision not to bring criminal charges, but that ethics reviews are strictly for OLR to investigate.
"If OLR decided not to pursue this matter, in whole or in part, because it believed DOJ had conducted an ethical investigation that exonerated (Kratz), we urge OLR to review that decision without regard to any action DOJ may have taken pursuant to its law enforcement powers," wrote Assistant Attorney General Kevin Potter.
Included in Van Hollen's release was a letter dated March 5 from OLR intake investigator Cynthia Schally to Stephanie Van Groll. In the letter, Schally mentions that Kratz had taken steps to demonstrate his remorse and notes that while Kratz's racy texts to Van Groll were inappropriate, they "did not appear to involve possible professional misconduct. Therefore, your grievance will not be forwarded for formal investigation and will be closed at this time."
Sellen was out of the office Tuesday. He has previously declined to even confirm whether OLR had reviewed a complaint about Kratz, citing the confidentiality rule, which court system spokesman Tom Sheehan reiterated Tuesday.
Dean R. Dietrich, a Wausau lawyer who serves as chair of the state bar's professional ethics committee and has defended many lawyers against OLR actions, said Tuesday he trusts the office did a thorough job - based on whatever information it had at the time.
But if Kratz limited the information he gave the OLR, it may not have seen reason to do much. Van Groll's attorney, Michael Fox, said she was never contacted by anyone from OLR.
Fox said he did not know whether Van Groll had asked Sellen to review the decision to close her complaint, which the rules allow.
Lawyers' rules of professional conduct include prohibitions on harassment "on the basis of sex, race, age, creed, religion, color, national origin, disability, sexual preference or marital status in connection with the lawyer's professional activities."
Grievances don't become public records unless and until a lawyer agrees to a public reprimand or the OLR files a complaint with the Supreme Court.
Prior to that, the director can decide the grievance is outside OLR's jurisdiction, divert the matter to an alternatives to discipline program or start an investigation.
Dietrich pointed out that the OLR does have authority to begin an investigation on its own and could already be looking further into the Van Groll texts or at the latest allegations about Kratz's contacts with other women.
"We just don't know," he said.

In 2011, author and editor Oliver Morton wrote a cover article for "The Economist" titled: Welcome to the Anthropocene. Many credit this article with jumpstarting popular interest in the term. On today's show, producer Miles Traer sits down with Morton to discuss the anthropocene in the context of his new book titled "The Planet Remade: How Geoengineering Could Change The World." The conversation touches on everything from pitching stories at the Economist to U2 spy planes to why geoengineering doesn't scare Morton as much as some think it should. Listen along as we explore the Planet Remade.

Learning to die in the anthropocene
Does climate change mean the end of civilization? Maybe that sounds crazy, but, then again, all the forecasts are deeply sobering. There are reasons for hope, sure, but there are also reasons to believe that humans are unleashing forces beyond anyone's control. If we assume for the sake of argument that we are on a collision course headed for global catastrophe, how do we make peace with that reality? How do we comport ourselves as ethical human beings, and what does it mean to be living through the late stages of this explosive time period? These are just some of the questions that Iraq War veteran Roy Scranton grapples with in his new book, "Learning to Die in the Anthropocene." Drawing on his experiences, Scranton uses the framing of the Anthropocene to capture a deep time perspective and to confront mortality in a way that is rare in public discourse. In this conversation with producer Mike Osborne, Scranton talks about his journey as an intellectual, his decision to go to war, and what it means for a civilization to learn to die.

The Soundtracker
Listen up, because you never know when a sound will change your life. Acoustic ecologist Gordon Hempton tells us the story of how he became "The Soundtracker," an unorthodox career choice that has led him around the planet three times in pursuit of the last pristine soundscapes. Journey along with Hempton from tropical jungles to the frozen North as he records the music from the solar-powered jukebox that is Earth.
This episode was produced by Leslie Chang, Mike Osborne, and Miles Traer.

History is a Mess
The very idea of an Anthropocene suggests that the world is changing faster than ever before. And a growing number of historians, archeologists, and geologists are looking at our modern world in the context of deep time to place the rapid changes in their proper context. In today's show, Ian Morris discusses how societies have developed through all of human history – from Neanderthals to iPhones – and points out some trends we can extract and investigate from archeological data. Specifically, Morris explains how geography drives human social development, but development changes the very meaning of geography. If that sounds a little complicated… well, it is. But we speak with Ronan Arthur about the Native American Navajo as a sort of case study of this geography/social development concept.

South Africa battled through an uncomfortable day at the Gabba to reach 166 for five and earn a draw in the first test against Australia, who declared on 565-5 halfway through Tuesday's first session to try and force a result.
Australia captain Michael Clarke, who made 259 not out, declared with a first innings lead of 115 over South Africa's 450, but his bowlers were unable to claim enough wickets to force a result in a test which lost a whole day to rain.
Jacques Rudolph (11) was adjudged lbw to spinner Nathan Lyon despite a television review to give Australia a late glimmer of hope but AB de Villiers (29) and Vernon Philander (one) ushered the tourists to the close of play.
"It was unfortunate not to get a result today," said Clarke, who was named Man of the Match for his record innings.
"But I think we fought hard with both bat and ball after the first day."
James Pattinson, the pick of Australia's bowlers, had given the hosts an early breakthrough by having opener Alviro Petersen caught behind by wicketkeeper Matthew Wade for five to leave South Africa on 6-1.
The 22-year-old seamer also bowled Hashim Amla for seven before lunch but the world's No 1 batsman was brought back to the crease for a no-ball, the fourth wicket to be saved by the same infraction in the match.
The second wicket also came off Pattinson, who had a fiery exchange with Graeme Smith (23) before tempting the South African captain into an outside edge that Rob Quiney claimed well at gully.
Australia fruitlessly used both of their referrals as they ramped up the pressure on the South Africans and just when Amla and Jacques Kallis looked to be getting on top of the bowlers, they were separated.
Amla aimed a loose shot at a Peter Siddle delivery he could have left and the ball went straight to Mike Hussey at short cover.
Jacques Kallis, who backed up his first innings 147 with a 49, looked like he might guide South Africa to safety but fell to spinner Lyon with Clarke taking an excellent low catch in the slips.
By then, however, Australia's chance of a win was all but gone.
Clarke, who resumed on 218 with his team on 487-4, again sparkled with the bat in the morning sunshine, adding 41 runs to his personal tally and taking the record for the highest individual score at the Gabba.
The 31-year-old shared a partnership of 228 with Hussey, who reached his 17th test century in a quickfire 128 balls with a rushed single before being dismissed on the next delivery he faced.
Morne Morkel claimed the wicket, his third, with substitute fielder Faf du Plessis taking a fine catch at full stretch at short cover.
Clarke was not going to be outshone, however, and he crashed a Dale Steyn delivery back over the bowler's head to bring up his 250 with his 28th four.
His third double century of the year, which came from 398 deliveries in 582 minutes, eclipsed the 235 England's Alastair Cook scored at the Gabba in the opening test of the Ashes series two years ago.
It was a remarkable turnaround for Australia, who were reeling at 40-3 when Clarke took the crease on Sunday afternoon.
South Africa's No 1 test ranking is on the line in the series, which continues with matches in Adelaide and Perth after Brisbane.

A large sculpture of a tui at the entrance to Paraparaumu Beach crafted by a local artist who has been jailed for sexually violating two girls will be removed, Kapiti Coast District Council has decided.
Brendan Nolan, 55, was sentenced on Monday to five years, three months behind bars after admitting offences dating from 1999 to 2001.
Yesterday Paekakariki School took down elaborate school entrance gates made by Nolan, saying it was inappropriate for the gates to "welcome" children and their families to the school.
The council voted 7-3 this morning to remove a $20,000, 4-5 metre high metal tui from the entrance to Paraparaumu Beach on the corner of Kapiti Rd and Maclean St and store it till a permanent decision was made about its future.
The cost of installing the sculpture, including a plinth and reinforcing, brought the cost of the sculpture to about $40,000.
A $3,500 portrait by Nolan hanging in Paraparaumu Library would probably also be taken down and stored.
Mayor Jenny Rowan strongly supported removing the tui saying sexual abuse of children was totally abhorrent, "the bottom of a very murky heap".
Councillors Mike Cardiff, Diane Ammundsen and Penny Gaylor voted against removing the sculpture.
"I am not one for ripping it out. If a gentleman had been drinking and killed three people, would we still be having this discussion? I do not think it should be taken down," Mr Cardiff said.
Mrs Diane Ammundsen said she did not want the tui removed, saying the victims' families and the community should be consulted first, while Ms Gaylor said it was too early to remove it and the police should be consulted.
Councillor Tony Lester suggested the tui be taken down this afternoon but the recommendation approved by the council was to take it down as soon as practical. Councillor Ross Church said he was very sad about the tui.
"In deciding what to do, try not let a tui get dragged into it. I love the tui. It is my favourite bird," Mr Church said.
Paraparaumu-Raumati community board chairwoman Louella Jensen warned the sculpture could be vandalised if it was not removed.
"It is a very emotional time. Take it down now before doing anything is regretted later on," Mrs Jensen said.
