Are there, by chance, voice files of the female deputy actually speaking, or a name of the voice actor who recorded the sound effects?
The female Deputy never speaks, but it sounds to me like she has the same voice actor as one of the cultists. You can find a transcript of most of her lines in this document if you search for “CULT_FOLLOWER_FEMALE_05”. One of the Angels might be played by the same person too.
I know Randy Yuen did motion capture for the Deputy in general, and maybe the male Deputy has his voice, but there is no information about who played “CULT_FOLLOWER_FEMALE_05” and the female Deputy…
The actor’s name must be in the credits, however, so probably one of these people:
VOICE TALENT Doug Abrahams Marty Adams Claire Armstrong Ted Atherton Kailea Banka Carolina Bartczak Lawrence Bayne Bruce Blain Jesse Bond Sarah Booth Marc-André Boulanger Wyatt Bowen Paul Braunstein Kimberly D. Brooks Jason Bryden Nicki Burke Mark Camacho Braeden Clarke Lucinda Davis Stacey DePass Bruce Edwards Jake Epstein Jonathan Goad Amber Goldfarb Alain Goulem Rob Greenway Gavin Hammon Ian Hanlin Lauren Jackson Julianne Jain Mara Junot Helen King Jameson Kraemer Gabe Kunda Tristan D. Lalla Erica Lindbeck Erin Mathews James Mathis III Jon McLaren Scott McNeil Cynthia Kaye McWilliams Chimwemwe Miller Julie Nathanson Mayko Nguyen Peter Outerbridge Lindsay Owen-Pierre Giles Panton Christopher Parson Kristen Peace Murry Peeters Simon Lee Phillips Geoffrey Pounsett Claire Rankin David Richmond-Peck Cara Ricketts Kyle Rideout Charlotte Rogers Paula Shaw Jesse Sherman Ivan Sherry Howard Siegel Jonathan Silver Dylan Taylor Jeff Teravainen Brett Watson Jane Wheeler Dan White Scott Whyte Debra Wilson Kim Yarbrough Farid Yazdani
And there is a little more information about who played who on IMDb.
This is all I know for the moment... but I hope it helps :)

Stephen Smith of The Morning Line opens up.
I believe that Bay Area musician Stephen Smith began sending me stuff to listen to/review with his band The Morning Line a few years ago. I really like the band’s brand of melodic rock/pop and was curious to know more. I then realized it was the same Stephen Smith who had been in Boston faves Salem 66 many years before. I then wondered what other bands he had been in that I had maybe checked out (or own records by) so I tossed him some questions that he was more than happy to answer. Read on and give the band a listen, they really deserve your time.
Tumblr media
RAWK
Where did you grow up? Was it the Boston area?
North Shore of Chicago until about 14, then high school in the Boston suburbs. I stayed in and around Boston, with stints in New York, L.A., and North Carolina, until I was 25. I was into music as a kid in Chicago, but too young to really be going to shows or anything. Boston was where I really had my musical coming of age. There was a surprising amount of stuff happening in the Suburbs. I saw Husker Du in Concord. The Dead Kennedys in Waltham. And Boston was only about 45 minutes away by train. I remember going into the city and buying records at Newbury Comics, with Aimee Mann behind the register.
What was the first instrument you picked up?
Why I started playing french horn at 11 or 12, I don’t know. It didn’t last. I started playing guitar pretty quickly after that. My first electric was a Stratocaster. I was probably 12 years old. 1979? It was used, so I’m guessing it was an early 70’s one. Got stolen at CBGB while I was loading in in the mid-80’s. Thieves work fast! Let me know if you’ve seen it.
What was the first record you remember buying? As a kid nay band knock your socks off?
My memory is embarrassing, but I recall three early purchases. Singles of ELO’s “Turn to Stone,” and Gary Numan’s “Cars,” and a Beatles comp called “Rock ‘n’ Roll Music.”
Tumblr media
The most recent album from 2019. 
What bands were you introduction to punk/new wave/alternative music?
I remember very distinctly tuning into WLYN (later WFNX) and hearing Gun Club’s “Sex Beat”, and Bush Tetras’ “Cowboys in Africa,” and being amazed. I’ll tell you what, though, high school girlfriends were absolutely key to my musical education. Gang of Four? X? Learned about them through my first girlfriend. The Replacements? Through my second. I’m the great beneficiary of other people being better informed than me. Through these same people, I became aware of what was going on locally, and was turned on pretty early to stuff like Christmas, Volcano Suns, the Proletariat.
Was Expando Brain your first band? If not what?
As a fifteen-year-old, I had a couple bands with friends playing covers (I remember Gang of Four’s “Essence Rare,” X’s “Riding with Mary,” “Brand New Cadillac”). But Expando Brain was the first “real” band. I think I was 16 when we started that. Being that age and getting to play shows (like that CBGB one where I lost the guitar), make a record, and be ever-so-slightly enjoyed by some people, was a thrill. I suppose obviously.
Tell me about your time in Salem 66? Howe did you initially meet those ladies?
I don’t remember how we got together! I’m going to guess it was David Savoy’s doing. David managed Expando Brain for a while. He later managed Husker Du, before passing in early 1987. I think he got me together with them. I was 18-19 at the time. They were all 5-10 years older, so we wouldn’t have been traveling in the same circles.
It was absolutely thrilling for me. They were a great, interesting, band. They had “made it,” in my youthful eyes. Signed to Homestead Records? Come on. Gerard had rejected Expando Brain. So I was gonna be on my favorite label (well, maybe SST aside)! I was only in the band for nine months (I think I was a pretty relentless pain in the ass), but so much happened in that time. I think it was all in 1986. We did a tour through the south, so I saw places I’d never seen. We did another tour as a part of our travel to make “Frequency & Urgency,” so I got to see California, an unknown place that loomed so large in my imagination. We stopped in Needles, on the CA/AZ border, and I skated the pool of the motel we stayed at (very poorly). We made the record with Ethan James, who had recorded one of my favorite records of all time (“Double Nickels on the Dime”). I got my first tattoo while we were in L.A. making the record. It was just a dream for a 19-year-old who wanted to be a musician. In some minor way, I *was*.
Tumblr media
Waiting for the pizza delivery. 
Was God’s Eye next? If so how did that band begin (and end)?
Yes and no. After getting booted from Salem 66, I went to school. Spent a year at Vassar College. There, I started the first version of God’s Eye with my brother, Tim, who would drive out to Poughkeepsie from Boston now and then to rehearse, and with Ivor Hanson, another Vassar student, who had earlier been in Faith and Embrace (and has gone on to lots of other things, musical and otherwise). I was just writing riffs then, nothing very substantial, and that came to an end at the end of the school year. At the same time, I answered an ad in the Village Voice. A band in North Carolina, apparently signed to a major, was looking for a guitar player. I noodled some notes onto a tape, took a picture, and sent it. I got an audition, then the gig. The band was called the Right Profile and, at the time, they were signed to Arista. ….but no record ever came out. Sort of a roots/American thing before that was a thing. Maybe Petty-ish? I hate to pigeonhole. So I moved to North Carolina. The band was led by a guy named Jeffrey Dean Foster, who is still making great music today. The drummer was Jon Wurster, a name I’m sure you know. For about nine months – again - I played with them. I was the wrong guy for the job though. I didn’t really have the kind of sideman chops they needed. Can’t remember if I jumped or was pushed. Maybe some combination. As an old man, it’s been nice reconnecting with them through the miracle of social media. A year or two after that, I restarted God’s Eye with my brother. In candor, it wasn’t very good. I had decided I needed to sing in a lower register, and it was really just bellowing. Despite that, we had remarkable success. We were managed by Boston dynamo Joyce Linehan, who would later go on to work at Sub Pop, work with Joe Pernice, and work as chief of staff to the Mayor of Boston. She got us much further than we (I) deserved. We made an album, an ep, and a single for Domino in England. The album also came out on Rough Trade in Germany. We got to play some dates in London. Nothing ever came out in the U.S. We had some interest, but it never materialized.
Anything in between that band and your move to the west coast?
Near the end of God’s Eye, I also played a bit with Green Magnet School. They needed a bassist, and I pitched in. Chris Pearson, one of the guitar players in the band, returned the favor, adding a second guitar for God’s Eye. I was lucky to be able to record a single with GMS, the Sub Pop double-single with Six Finger Satellite.
When did you make your movie to the Bay Area and what prompted that?
Frustration with music prompted it. I remember having breakfast with an exec from Stone Roses’ label. Silvertone, if I recall correctly. He sounded so into it! He was gonna put out the God’s Eye record in the U.S.! But it didn’t happen. I decided I needed to have more control over my life, so I bore down, finished college, and moved across the country to San Francisco, sight unseen, to go to law school.
Tumblr media
The latest single from earlier this year. 
Were you in any bands before the Morning Line in San Francisco?
In law school I met a fellow student, Jason Hammon, who was in the midst of a pretty successful rock career. He was in Dance Hall Crashers. We stayed friends and, in 2000 or so, we started a band called My Fellow Astronauts, with his brother Gavin (another DHCrasher) and my friend Scout (Scout Shannon & the Willing Deceivers). We played some shows, recorded some demos, but nothing ever came of it.
Tell us about the beginnings of The Morning Line?
It’s 2004 or so. My friend Marco Baroz (Lucy & the Long Haul) played bass, David Knupp played guitar, and somehow we found David Shollenbarger. Maybe craigslist or something? David had played for awhile with Agent Orange. We were in our late 30’s, and knew not to take it too seriously. But we made some demos, and an album in 2007 (“Stay My Satellite”). We were and are very fortunate to have a friend named Peter Craft, who has a great studio called Boxer Lodge, and great skills. We got to spend a year working on the album, and get it just the way we wanted. We self-released, but got a few reviews and a few fan letters, and that’s all I could hope for. Eventually, the lack of success that comes with being in a band of forty-somethings took its toll, and the band was pretty much dissolved in 2008. But Peter (also a terrific drummer) and I kept making demos. I wrote some stuff I liked in about 2015, so we started recording again using The Morning Line name. “Stephen Smith” is too generic to get the job done.
“Smoke,” from 2017, is a collection of things we did over a few years. “North,” from 2019, was a focused, intentional album project, all recorded with Peter, David Knupp, and Brian Mello (the Bellyachers). That’s the band today. I write the songs and sing, but it really wouldn’t sound like it does without them, especially Brian (I don’t think Peter or David will be offended by that).
I know you just released a Morning Line single. What’s next for the band?
Not sure! I’m still riding the high of getting a couple songs done with all of us in quarantine! We’re talking about putting out a collection of odds and ends: demos, the songs from this new single, some remixes. But I’m not sure. We’ll be putting out a couple of those old outtakes as a Big Stir digital single in June. An album of all new material is probably in the future, but I’d guess at least 18 months out. We’re . . . deliberate.
Prior to COVD was the band actively playing locals shows and or doing any touring?
Not really. We play from time to time, but it’s mostly a recording project at this point. You’d be surprised how little interest there is in watching an obscure group of fifty-somethings peddle their wares.
Tumblr media
A man, his dog and a weird-ass mountain (ok, hill). 
Who are some of your favorite current bands, local or otherwise?
I’ve been oddly incurious about new music the past few years. I just looked at the Outside Lands schedule and was like, “scarypoolparty? What?” I know that’s inconceivable to you. I tend to get excited by friends’ new products. People I’ve mentioned here, like Brian Mello and Scout Shannon, have had things out over the past year or two. My friend Russell Tillitt has something coming out. Jeff Shelton’s Well Wishers. Just off the top of my head. Bigger name stuff? I like the new Besnard Lakes record. The most recent Sleaford Mods. I’d be happy to hear the new Wrens record, which I suspect may never come.
What are your top 10 desert island discs?
You know how hard this is. Every day a different answer, right? Here goes:
Neil Young – Live Rust The Clash – London Calling Wrens – Meadowlands X – Los Angeles Gang of Four – Entertainment Replacements – Let it Be Jesus Lizard – Goat Jam – Sound Affects Teenage Fanclub – Catholic Education Wipers – Over The Edge
Those and a hundred others.
Final words? Closing comments? Words of wisdom?
Thanks for giving me the chance to think about this stuff. It’s fun to do a little reminiscing. As you know, there’s a deep bench of older indie-rock folks out there, still at it, and doing it pretty well. Thanks for giving us some attention.
 BONUS QUESTION: Red Sox or Giants?
60/40 Giants. It's nice to have a team in each league.

Fire Bud and also Horst too
Lotta talk about whether or not Bud should be fired. I think the answer is very obviously yes. People talk about him failing to make adjustments defensively, and I don’t actually think that’s true. He does make adjustments, the team just isn’t comfortable running the new schemes. This isn’t because suddenly Giannis, Khris, Jrue, hell even Donte are bad defenders this year. It’s clearly because Bud hasn’t spent the time these last few years working on anything besides the drop coverage scheme. Obviously asking the players to make in-game adjustments that they aren’t comfortable with will result in bad outcomes.
So yes, fire Bud before he drives this team further into the ground. Promote Ham to coach, and start interviewing. Plenty of talented coaches out there. Obradovic, Hammon, Atkinson, whoever, there is talent that can do significantly better with this team.
However, I think there is a much much bigger issue than Bud. And that is Jon Horst. We better pray Jrue re-signs or picks up the player option, otherwise we are headed towards Houston Rockets purgatory. The Holiday trade was fine, the issue is everything else around it. Brook’s drop-off hasn’t helped, but Portis (love him) can’t be a reliable defensive big. Wouldn’t be an issue if we had one, but we don’t. Next, DJA’s contract is a nightmare and it makes so little sense. Signing him with the MLE hardcapped us meaning this is our team for the season. So no true point on the team. Throw in the Connaughton contract and we have almost no plus-value contracts, almost no draft capital, and no room under the cap. For a team without an athletic big and a true point guard.
And that’s just this year! Next year, we have even more in salary payroll and as we well know, Lasry and Co don’t love paying the tax. Even if Jrue leaves, we won’t have enough space to replace him with a player of his caliber. And I don’t have faith in the squad right now to be able to win a championship.
So ya, let’s fire Bud and get someone in who at the very least can make watching the Bucks play fun again. It looks rough for the players and it’s rough for the fans. But the management of this team seems to be a bigger issue and it deserves to be scorched as much if not more than Bud.

REVIEW
City of Dark Corners by Jon Talton
 Took me back in time to a place I have visited but never seen in the era of my grandfather was a young man. I did think of him as I read because he, too, was a veteran of the great war and many of the behaviors, comments, and thoughts expressed in this book rang true when thinking about things he said when I was growing up. Almost one hundred years ago…life was different and so was Phoenix. I found this book, based in the facts of the time, fascinating.
 What I liked:
* The writing, plot and story told
* Eugene “Gene” Hammons: Private investigator, ex-homicide detective, veteran of WWI, Phoenix native, brother, Christian, music lover, more open minded than some, a man of his times.
* Victoria Vasquez: independent photographer who also worked for the police department, Hispanic, native Phoenician, daughter, sister, Gene’s girlfriend.
* The relationship between Gene and his brother, Don.
* The glimpse into the past
* Being reminded of the huge changes that have been made since 1933
* Seeing how crimes were solved
* The way PTSD (or what it is now known as) was dealt with in this story
* That it felt as if I had stepped back in time and was there with Gene as he worked on the case
* That the killer of the dismembered woman was eventually revealed
* Wondering about what might happen in the future: will Gene and Victoria end up together? What work will Gene do in the future? Will this be the introduction to a new series or remain a standalone?
* Realizing at the end of the book that many characters that appeared were “real” – and – finding out what happened to them later in their lives.
 What I didn’t like:
* Being reminded of the huge divide between various groups of people and how ethnicity impacted where one fell on the divide.
*Knowing that the same evil lives on in people now that was around back then…in the population, in politics, in gangs-mafias, and on the police force.
* Having to say goodbye to the main characters.
 Did I enjoy this book? Definitely
Would I read more by this author? Without a doubt!
 Thank you to NetGalley and Poisoned Pen Press for the ARC – This is my honest review.

  BLURB
 Phoenix, 1933: A young city with big dreams and dark corners Great War veteran and rising star Gene Hammons lost his job as a homicide detective when he tried to prove that a woman was wrongly convicted of murder to protect a well-connected man. Now a private investigator, Hammons makes his living looking for missing persons--a plentiful caseload during the Great Depression, when people seem to disappear all the time. But his routine is disrupted when his brother--another homicide detective, still on the force--enlists his help looking into the death of a young woman whose dismembered body is found beside the railroad tracks. The sheriff rules it an accident, but the carnage is too neat, and the staging of the body parts too ritual. Hammons suspects it's the work of a "lust murderer"--similar to the serial strangler whose killing spree he had ended a few years earlier. But who was the poor girl, dressed demurely in pink? And why was his business card tucked into her small purse? As Hammons searches for the victim's identity, he discovers that the dead girl had some secrets of her own, and that the case is connected to some of Phoenix's most powerful citizens--on both sides of the law.

      AUTHOR BIO
 Jon Talton is the author of 13 novels and one work of history. His work has been widely praised by the critics. The Washington Post BookWorld said Concrete Desert is “more intelligent and rewarding than most contemporary mysteries.” In a starred review, Booklist called it “a stunning debut.” The Chicago Tribune lauded Camelback Falls for its “twisty and crafty” plot. For Dry Heat, Publishers Weekly wrote, “Taut prose helps tighten the screws, and the winning, sensitive portrayal of the Mapstones ¬– both of them a relief after too many hard-nosed PIs who are all gristle and no brain – lends credibility to the noirish narrative." Best-selling author Don Winslow called Talton one of America's "extremely talented but under-recognized" authors. Jon is also a veteran journalist. He is the economics columnist for the Seattle Times and is editor and publisher of the blog Rogue Columnist. For more than 25 years Jon has covered business and finance, specializing in urban economies, energy, real estate and economics and public policy. Jon has been a columnist for the Arizona Republic, Charlotte Observer and Rocky Mountain News, and his columns have appeared in newspapers throughout North America on the New York Times News Service and other news services. Jon has been a regular guest on CNBC. Jon served as business editor for several newspapers, including the Dayton Daily News, Rocky Mountain News, Cincinnati Enquirer and Charlotte Observer. At Dayton, he was part of a team that was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in Public Service, for the nation’s first computer-assisted report on worker safety. In Charlotte, the business section was honored as one of the nation’s best by the Society of American Business Editors and Writers. Among the stories he has covered are the landmark Texaco-Pennzoil trial; the collapse of energy prices in the 1980s; the troubles of General Motors and the American auto industry; the big bank mergers of the ‘90s, and America’s downtown renaissance. He was a Knight Western Fellow in Journalism at the University of Southern California and a community fellow at the Morrison Institute at Arizona State University.

See the Venice Biennale through the Eyes of an Artist, Curator, and Collector
It’s hard to fathom what it’s like to visit the Venice Biennale until you experience it firsthand. Art is ubiquitous, from the two main venues—the Giardini and the Arsenale—to ornate palazzos and churches across the city. And particularly during the opening week, the art-world crowd is ubiquitous, too.
For artists, art professionals, and collectors, the Venice Biennale is an opportunity to scope out the current state of contemporary art on a global scale, to catch up with peers and colleagues, and to celebrate the exhibiting artists.
As the 58th Venice Biennale opened its doors last week, we asked attendees to capture the sprawling, international event through their own perspectives. We gave Polaroid cameras to an artist, a curator, and a collector—Chloe Wise, Larry Ossei-Mensah, and Tiffany Zabludowicz—and asked them to share a day at the Biennale through a series of snapshots.
Chloe Wise
New York–based artist
During her first visit to the Biennale, Chloe Wise made the rounds at the Giardini and the Arsenale. Some of her favorite pieces in the central exhibition were by Korakrit Arunanandchai, Nabuqi, and Henry Taylor. And at the Giardini, she took snaps at the Nordic pavilion, the Serbian pavilion, and the American pavilion. She also caught up with friends and peers, like fellow artists Ed Fornieles and Alex Da Corte, as well as art advisor Dan Oglander and curator Michael Bank Christoffersen.
Tumblr media
Oh, that’s me (yes, my aura is sepia) proudly serving up lunch and looks. Here we have a buffalo mozzarella, cherry tomato, puntarelle, and micro spinach salad with the cutest snap peas and a lemon vinaigrette. I know what you’re thinking: “Chloe, you literally haven’t had time to respond to one email, or shower really, and there’s a bajillion pavilions, how did you have time to find a farmer’s market in Venice and make such a beautiful lunch for your loved ones?” Well, I just did. Get over it.
Tumblr media
Oh, that’s nice.
Tumblr media
Korakrit’s multimedia installation work is always outstanding and stresses me out in a good way. Do you guys think we should briefly date by the way? I think it would be a look. Maybe a Swiss moment for Art Basel. Let’s workshop this.
Tumblr media
Alex Da Corte (whose video was my absolute favorite thing I saw in Venice), crouching Thor Shannon, and hidden Sarah Hantman.
Tumblr media
A scenic moment to consider.
Tumblr media
Henry Taylor’s vibrant hues and painterly textures are by no means aptly represented in this photo, but that’s not my fault. It really isn’t. And even if it was, can we just focus on what a beautiful painting this is?
Tumblr media
Ed Fornieles hijacking my camera and blessing us with his cheekbones in a rare non-toxic masculine selfie moment.
Tumblr media
A sculptural installation featuring natural elements with industrial materials in the Nordic pavilion.
Tumblr media
Holy cow! ;-) Nabuqi’s installation really moo-ved me :-)
Tumblr media
“Venetian Vere” or “the Verechant of Venice.” Note: Not only will I take credit for art direction and photography of this beautiful and possibly iconic image, I also will assert, humbly, that I did Vere’s eyebrows on this day.
Tumblr media
Me and Michael Bank Christoffersen! Get ready for us! Coming to a Danish contemporary art museum near you! (Well, probably not that near to you, unless you live in the Danish countryside, but in any case, here we are.)
Tumblr media
Dan Oglander’s new Raya profile photo. Don’t worry, I invoiced him for it.
Larry Ossei-Mensah
Susanne Feld Hilberry Senior Curator at the Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit; independent curator; cultural critic; co-founder of ArtNoir
Larry Ossei-Mensah took us into a day of seeing art, peers, and artists at the Arsenale and Giardini. In the morning, he attended the inauguration of Ghana’s first-ever national pavilion. There, he caught up with artists including Lynette Yiadom-Boakye, John Akomfrah, Ibrahim Mahama, and Arthur Jafa. After, he ventured through the two venues of curator Ralph Rugoff’s “May You Live in Interesting Times.” He was drawn to works by Kahlil Joseph, Michael Armitage, Henry Taylor, Martine Gutierrez, and Soham Gupta. The day wound down at the American pavilion, with the sculptures of Martin Puryear.

Tumblr media
Martin Puryear’s Big Phrygian (2010–14) at the American pavilion in the Giardini.
Tiffany Zabludowicz
Collector and founder of Times Square Space
In addition to attending celebrations of artists showing in the Biennale, Tiffany Zabludowicz takes us through the main exhibition venues and beyond. In the central exhibition, her highlights included Alex Da Corte’s video Rubber Pencil Devil (2018) and installations by Liu Wei and Korakrit Arunanondchai. She also loved Naiza Khan’s Pakistani pavilion, Anna K.E.’s Georgian pavilion, and the Golden Lion–winning Lithuanian pavilion, featuring an indoor beach opera.

Lower Yuba River Fly Fishing Report
Jon Baiocchi reports on 1.19.17
Tumblr media
Releases from Englebright reservoir were cut drastically last Monday evening and the river went from 14k down to 5,165 cubes. Knowing there would be more clues revealed as to how the river may have changed, I drove down to get an accurate picture of such. I studied the river below the Parks Bar Bridge down to near the Hammon Grove Park area. The river’s course did not change that dramatically, but there are some interesting new side channels and islands popping up. It seems there could be more braided areas but no one will know for certain until the flows are down to 1,000 cfs. I’m by no means an expert hydrologist but the river structure has definitely been changed. We’ll know a lot more when the clarity improves as we will them be able to determine the bottom structure more accurately.
Tumblr media
The willows really got hit hard. Many were ripped out from their established homes, while others that made it are in a frozen state of leaning downstream from the heavy flows. The woody debris fields are an impressive sight. There is also a lot of garbage lining the banks like plastic bottles, and other household garbage. In the future anglers should bring a trash bag and after a day’s session, make an attempt to fill it up and dispose of properly.
Access on the Hammonton road is good, high clearance vehicles can get through the washout, and other spur roads that lead down to the river. It will take a while, but added traffic will wear these areas into better shape. The “put in” seems easier now but again this area will need to be packed down by multiple vehicles to smooth things out. Right now, the Lower Yuba River is up and flowing at 10,383 cfs after the first storm that rolled through yesterday. I know its torture waiting for our rivers to clear up and come down throughout the entire state, but my streamer box is filling up quite nicely with some fresh patterns, and some long overdue tying sessions are being completed.
Be safe out there if you’re near big water, or getting some face shots on the board with all that fresh pow.

Bucks name Budenholzer head coach
The Milwaukee Bucks officially named Mike Budenholzer as the team’s new head coach Thursday.

Budenholzer and the Bucks reportedly agreed in principle to a four-year contract on Wednesday.
“After a thorough coaching search, it was clear that Mike was the ideal choice as we enter into a new era of Bucks Basketball,” said Bucks owners Wes Edens, Marc Lasry and Jamie Dinan in a statement. “Mike has demonstrated the ability to lead and communicate, and understands what it takes to build a winning culture. This move puts our organization in a terrific position as we work together toward our collective goal of sustained success and winning championships.”
ESPN reported on Tuesday that Budenholzer, the front-runner for the job, and San Antonio Spurs assistant Ettore Messina, the other finalist, were meeting with ownership in a second round of interviews. Budenholzer met over breakfast with Bucks forwards Giannis Antetokounmpo and Khris Middleton on Wednesday morning before the team extended a formal offer, according to ESPN.
Antetokounmpo indicated he was pleased with the hire.
“He’s a great coach. He was the coach of the year (three seasons ago),” Antetokounmpo told ESPN. “We had a great conversation and talked about the game plan, how he views me as a player, how he can help this team. I had a lot of tough questions for him. But it was fun, I’m excited to play for him.”
Budenholzer, 48, was the 2014-15 NBA Coach of the Year but was released from his contract with the Atlanta Hawks at the end of this regular season to pursue other opportunities. He spoke with the Phoenix Suns and the New York Knicks about their respective coaching vacancies earlier this offseason, but he pulled his name out of discussion for the Suns job.
“Mike has played a key role in building successful teams throughout his career,” general manager Jon Horst stated. “He’s widely respected and has shown a special ability to teach and develop players. His leadership, basketball intellect, championship-level experience and communication skills make him the right fit to take our team to the next level.”
Budenholzer went 213-197 in his five seasons in Atlanta, leading the team to four playoff appearances before this season’s 24-58 record. He previously served as a Spurs assistant for 17 years.
“I’m extremely grateful to the Bucks ownership group and Jon Horst to be named the next head coach of the Milwaukee Bucks,” Budenholzer stated. “There are terrific people throughout the organization and together we have a tremendous opportunity to take the Bucks to the next level. I look forward to working with our group of young and exciting players and helping us evolve in many ways to succeed on the court.”
Milwaukee parted with Jason Kidd in January and assistant coach Joe Prunty served the rest of the season as interim head coach. Others to interview for the job this spring included Spurs assistant Becky Hammon — the first woman ever to interview for an NBA head coaching job — and Spurs vice president of basketball operations Monty Williams.
