Larry is just a boy when he learns he?s not actually a peasant but the son of a king. A magician in red robes with a magical staff appears from the sky with a green alien and gives the boy powers, hoping he?ll serve him when he grows up. The magician?s hopes soon disappear when the black-haired boy grows up and learns about his true heritage from his mother. He becomes the magician?s sworn enemy and vows to save the world from the evil magician.

The Legendary Heroes follows Larry?s adventures from joining a 7,000-strong army, to seeing his father?s hidden castle for the first time and fighting many battles against Venom and his evil colleagues.

Larry will be tested on all sides before this story ends and the next adventure begins.

The Super Bowl caravans have dispersed and the NFL activities downtown are closed. But, Maverick Entertainment, the leading force in the world of home video distribution and production targeted to the Urban and Latino market, is continuing to work after the weeklong calendar of activities. President Doug Schwab entertained several producers and directors from the Houston area as they brainstormed of future business opportunities.

At the Taste of the NFL, the premier food and wine tasting extravaganza for Super Bowl XXXVIII, Schwab presented his guests to top chefs from each of the 32 NFL cities paired with an alumnus or current player from each team. His guests were able to sample specialty foods from each city, meet the chefs and get photos and autographs from host players and celebrity guests.

Before the city hosted the biggest sporting event in the world, Schwab discussed with potential directors several upcoming projects for Breakaway Films, one of the country’s most prolific independent movie companies. Schwab created Breakaway Films one year ago with partners Pamela White and Ron Castell. During the activities of the Super Bowl, Schwab met with new filmmakers, young standup comics, actors and rappers looking for movie exposure, with the shot at making feature films geared toward bigger audience.

Sauk City, WI (PRWEB) October 25, 2007

Doc’s Sports has been in the sports information and handicapping business since 1971. Over that time, no other offering in the industry has enjoyed the success of Doc’s Big Ten Game of the Year. The pick at one time, won an unprecedented 19 years in a row, and was responsible for moving the Vegas line more than seven points one year. The 2007 Big Ten Game of the Year will be played on Saturday, Oct. 27. This is Doc’s strongest play of the year and the only 8-unit selection of the college or pro season.

“It used to be absolute chaos when this pick was released,” says Morey “Doc” Moseman, owner and founder of Doc’s Sports. “There would be a rush to the betting windows in Vegas when the pick came out. I never wanted to witness it because I didn’t want to jinx the pick. I knew how incredible a streak like this was, and I didn’t want it to end. I doubt anyone could ever match that streak again.”

This year’s selection – along with all of Doc’s expert college football and NFL picks – are available on Doc’s website at http://www.docsports.com and as always Doc’s picks are guaranteed to win or they will extend all memberships at no charge.

In an industry where people come and go all the time, and promises seem to be made to be broken, Doc’s is clearly an exception. Moseman started the company in 1971 with nothing more than a notepad and one phone line, and Doc’s is bigger than ever now in the 37th year of business.

“I think that we have been so successful over the years because we take a low-key approach to what we do,” adds Moseman. “We are always honest and our customers know that there are no sure things. We give them the best chance to win, but anything can happen in sports. There are games we win that we should lose, like the Big Ten Game of the Year in 1988 when Iowa got a late, long touchdown to cover, and games we lose that we should win, like the 2000 edition, when Michigan missed three field goals from inside the 20. In the end, though, our hard work, attention to statistics and lines, and contacts throughout the sports world give our customers an edge.”

Doc’s has been releasing their Big Ten Game of the Year since 1972 and it is their strongest play of the year in any sport (Doc’s releases expert picks in college and pro football and basketball along with MLB and NHL selections, among others). Doc’s picks this game according to a variety of intangibles, which include many motivational factors.

The following includes links to Doc’s most popular college football pages:

Doc’s Sports has been in business since 1971 and it has established itself as one of the leaders in the sports information industry. Industry luminaries continue to praise Doc’s team for its hard work and strong moral fiber. Doc’s Web site provides daily exclusive sports wagering content, odds, match-up reports and much more.

Libertybille, IL (PRWEB) January 12, 2007

Wonderlic, Inc., will introduce the latest version of its renowned intelligence test, the Wonderlic Personnel Test – Revised (WPT-R), on January 16, 2007.

Development of the new version, the WPT-R, required years of research, and thousands of field tests administered by clients to their job applicants. The 12-minute test of cognitive ability, or general intelligence, has been taken by more than 125 million people since 1937 – leaving the revision with some oversized shoes to fill.

“Many organizations have been using the WPT for decades,” explains Charles F. Wonderlic, President and CEO. “It is as much a part of their corporate culture as it is our own. If we were going to replace that test, it had to be substantially better without losing the essential characteristics valued by those clients.”

To ensure that clients were involved in every step of the process, the WPT-R went through five separate rounds of field testing involving 427 companies and 36,543 test takers. The resulting new forms of the WPT-R incorporate the latest advances in test development and scoring, which makes it an even more accurate predictor of success on the job.

The items on the test are designed for working adults and range from general math and English to syllogisms and spatial relations items. In field testing, test takers were very comfortable with the new format and item content of the WPT-R.

“The biggest change is in the accuracy of administration and scoring,” says Executive Vice President Winnie Clonts. The WPT-R is administered online or using a bubble form answer sheet and is scored by Wonderlic itself. “This eliminates the human error associated with hand scoring. We also provide an online database of scores and other job applicant information to facilitate better hiring decisions.”

About Wonderlic

The Wonderlic Personnel Test is a 12-minute test of cognitive ability, or general intelligence, which has been taken by more than 125 million people since 1937. Wonderlic serves thousands of clients, including the NFL Combine, which has used the Wonderlic Personnel Test for more than 30 years as part of its draft selection process. Wonderlic tests are referenced in hundreds of books on psychology and have been featured on Dateline, CNBC, Lifetime, CNNfn, and 20/20. More than 130 million people have taken Wonderlic assessments.

Media – contact Dave Burch at AFA National Office (877)624-

AFA PRESS RELEASE: (PRWEB) September 9, 2000

4485 or

(941)388-3510; e-mail amerfoot@aol.com (or) usafoot@aol.com

AS THE NFL KICKS OFF ANOTHER PRO FOOTBALL SEASON . . .THE AFA IS LOOKING FOR THOSE NON-PROFESSIONAL TEAMS WHO ARE “SEMI-PRO and PROUD” . . . TO STEP FORWARD

“It’s all about being ‘the best you can be playing at the level that

you’re at’ – at the present time”, says the AFA national association

president, Ron Real. “Sure most of the players and even some of the

coaches on our level think they have what it takes to make that step up to

the next level. The truth of the matter is that they don’t – and the few

that slip between the cracks of the sophisticated professional football

scouting programs in place these days – are few and far between”, Real

added.

So why isn’t the AFA national association for semi-pro football programs

across the country doing more to get the players on this level a better

opportunity to play ‘pro ball’? Because, actually (for the most part) the

best players on the semi-pro level are playing at the top of their game as

it is and making it ‘to the show’ is reserved for a whole different level

of talent.

But don’t knock ‘em if you haven’t seen any of these guys play. Playing

for the love of the game, and not a big pay check, puts these athletes in

a category of their own. “It’s amazing how a level of football, that is

nearly as large as college football in the number of participating teams,

can take the knocks it takes from the football purist and keeps coming

back year after year for more”.

“Now that’s ‘grass roots’ football. Ever think of where the NFL would have

wound up if the early pioneers of the pro game got discouraged because the

media called them ‘semi-pros’ (as the NFL was known before they were the

National Football League). Yes, they (NFL) elevated themselves to a level

of professionalism that has become the envy of all sports. They left

behind a residue that was considered then, and still is, unwanted baggage

in the form of the semi-pro football level”, added the AFA president.

“It’s time for our teams and leagues to recognize that we are the top rung

of the senior amateur level of America’s sport, football. If it’s a known

fact that the NFL got its start with a bunch of semi-pro players, why then

should we be ashamed to be associated with the term semi-pro football”?

Some say the term semi-pro football has a negative connotation and the

level of play has a bad track record. Others say its reputation is

somewhat tarnished in semi-pro type communities who may have extended

lines of credit to previous organizations who fell short of fulfilling all

their financial obligations to the local playing venues, sporting goods

companies and/or purveyors of special promotional services such as

newspaper, radio and TV advertising. Yes, a few bad apples might spoil the

barrel, but when that happens the fruit farmers don’t throw out the

barrels – just the bad apples. Barrels cost money.

Funny isn’t it, that when a ‘professional’ football venture goes down the

tubes – and there’s been several in the past 20 years since the AFA’s been

around – it usually leaves a wake of financial disaster in the area of

millions of dollars. No negative connotations engraved here – because it’s

professional football. It’s just an unfortunate situation that cost

cities, businesses and season ticket holders millions. That’s all right

because before you know it another promoter with a brand new idea for a

professional football league will come around the corner (sometimes in the

same failed cities) and convince everyone they have what is sure to be the

next league to rival the success that the NFL has enjoyed for so many

years. Because it’s ‘pro football’ it stands a chance at being successful.

The media will see to it that it gets its share of sports ink – again. But

when it comes to ‘semi-pro-football’ the media seems to be ignore the

efforts of those promoting community senior level football.

Who’s fault is that? Surely not the media. And don’t try to pin semi-pro

team and league failures on the NFL – after all they ‘outgrew’ the

semi-pro syndrome many years ago when they decided to do something about

what the media and local football fans thought of the sport of semi-pro

football.

Why is it so important for semi-pro team owners and league administrators

to want to duck the responsibilities of polishing up the image of semi-pro

football versus trying to call it something it’s not. Our level is

Semi-Pro. Not minor league or minor professional (that moniker will come

around only when and if the NFL decides it needs a complete farm system

like those enjoyed – and financed – by other pro sports). Without a major

league affiliation it hardly makes any sense to refer to our level as a

minor league.

What are we afraid of by using the term semi-pro football? Who are we

trying to fool? Instead of trying to convince the media and the

professional football leagues that our level is just inches away from

being established as ‘development leagues’ – why don’t we simply take

advantage of the fact that our teams and leagues provide opportunities for

senior level (post college age) players to continue playing the sport they

have come to love ever since their youth football days? What about the

opportunities our level provides for players who never played college

ball, for one reason or another. Where does a high school player go to

continue playing if he doesn’t get a football scholarship after graduating

from senior high?

If some of our players get the chance to ‘go pro’ from our organizations

efforts, that’s great! But that’s not the reason we do what we do. Why

don’t we all pull together and take advantage of the fact that semi-pro

football has been around longer than pro football and it’s time we take

our place in the sports world by challenging those who doubt our reasons

for providing good community football programs for fans to enjoy at

affordable entertainment prices. Remember, our level is the survivor of

the ‘grass roots’ football program that the NFL grew out of. Let’s take

advantage of that fact.

Before we challenge the media and professional football, we have to

challenge ourselves. Attention team owners, coaches, players and league

administrators – think you have what it takes to promote the fact that

those on our level are committed to proving they are “SEMI-PRO and PROUD”?

. . . We’ll see.

Central, AZ (PRWEB) November 29, 2007

Glaxicon Music in conjunction with RavenPheat Recording Studios, The Reid Effect and LuLu Publishing Company releases the Comedic/PoP Music Video, “The (nfl’s) Sofa League of Heroes” Starring Brando Quin Lead Singer, Song Lyrics Writer and Melodies Composer, Producer John Mahoney Music, Arrangement and Production, Tim Sadow Lead Violin, Michele Sarrett Backup Vocalist, Dan King Saxophonist, and Ted Hale Lead Trombonist. View supporting Eastern Arizona Courier Article at http://www.eacourier.com/articles/2007/11/21/lifestyle/doc474472185995e409753817.txt

Brando Quin opens up once again and draws us into his rich Irish/English American heritage giving us an entertaining Music Video of unique, original, expressive and comedic American (nfl) Football Fan Comedy/Pop Music.

The Award Winning Video shot entirely on location at Castles N Coasters Theme Park in Phoenix Arizona by award winning director Robert Reid of “The Reid Effect” was shot in High Definition Wide-screen complete with his own brand of special effects.

“We felt Castles N Coasters in Phoenix Arizona was the perfect location for this theme song which has a comedic carnival type atmosphere beat to it. The carousel, bumper cars and other rides at the amusement park blended Brando’s vision of music with my vision of the (nfl) football fans who religiously watch the game of football weekly from the comfort of their own sofa’s entertainingly!”–Director Robert Reid

“The (nfl’s) Sofa League of Heroes” opens another chapter in Brando’s life that captures the imagination of football fans everywhere. This song was originally written as the theme song for a television series which revolves around four couples during the (nfl) Football season. The women are always scheming to avoid the subject of football entirely while their husband’s lives revolve around football 24/7. The pilot episode is in the pre-production planning stages and is expected to begin filming in 2008 at an undisclosed location in Phoenix Arizona.

“Sunday, Sunday, Sunday Production is perfect sounds very professional. Love the whole “Umpa” band sound with the horns. Kinda reminded me of the Dirty Dozen Brass Band. Lyrics are great I mean what’s funnier than what goes on during Sunday Night Football. Funny shtuff.”–PaperbackNinja Detroit, Michigan

The Award Winning Song “The (nfl’s) Sofa League of Heroes” is the #9 song on the CD, “Brando Quin The Journey” released by Glaxicon on September 1st 2007. The song has already won the following awards at Garageband.com; Track of the Day on 19Aug2007 in Comedy, Best Male Vocals in Comedy week of 20Aug2007, Best Mood in Comedy week of 20Aug2007 and Most Original in Comedy week of 20Aug2007.

Several of RavenPheat’s band members were unable to attend the shoot due to prior commitments so Associate Producer Janet Oesterling stepped in and lined up Safford Arizona’s most famous local band, “Shock and Awe” to take their place in the music video.

“Shock and Awe’s Michael Curtis, Dave Gentry, Janet Gentry and Mike Cheever stepped up to the plate and did a magnificent job during the shooting of this video. Their incredible musicianship made this video a delight to work on and I know who to call for backup in the future!”–Brando Quin.

Glaxicon also collaborated with Technical Assistant and Stage/Lighting Development Team;

Michael MacPherson, Carla Kirlin and Jess Darin of Phoenix Arizona’s very own live performing band – Element115. “We watched Element 115’s music video’s and were highly entertained by their use of an Alien on a 12′ tall plasma screen TV as the drummer. My vision for Brando and his band was to be playing live on stage while a Pro Football game played in the background, Michael MacPherson’s setup was exactly what was needed for the live play by play effect we were looking for.”

Next were the football fans for the video. “I (Brando) live in Central Arizona a small rural town east of Phoenix. There is a small town school Solomon Elementary who for years hasn’t won a football game but the kids play every game with heart. The last game of the 2007 season Solomon’s Football team walked away with their first win in a very long time. As soon as I heard the story of this town’s team win I contacted Kevin England the Principal of the school and asked if he’d like to have his students attend the Music Video Shoot in Phoenix to provide the crowd scene.”

“We were delighted to give our boy’s and girls of Solomon Elementary the opportunity to be involved in the making of Brando’s Music Video. I felt it would be a real town booster and give an unusual reward to the football team for winning the final game of the 2007 season. Brando treated the students as stars and provided them with gifts, CD’s, books and memories that will last them a lifetime!”–Kevin England, Principal Solomon Elementary

Also on board was Joan Langdon of “Face and Body Art by Joan” and Patrice Farner of Movie Work Now who provided the “Sofa League of Heroes Wives Club”. “Michelle Rodriguez, Mary Kate Goodrich, Bridget McElroy and Elizabeth Garden made the wives club scenes which both open and close the music video hilarious, sexy and fun!”

Tami Gramont who Brando touts as “The Greatest Photographer in the World” was called in to snap the still photo’s while the music video was being shot. Her picture is now on the cover of the DVD “The (nfl’s) Sofa League of Heroes”. Tami is well known throughout Arizona for her keen eye and amazing ability to photograph Arizona’s vast equestrian population. Her Photography has recently been shown at the famed Goldenstein Art Gallery in Sedona Arizona, on the cover of Horse Trader Magazine and on the cover of Brando’s novel “The Master Painter”.

And finally Cameron Carpenter of Three Oceans Entertainment was called into the project to film the behind the scenes portions of the video which include never before seen footage of the making of the video, bloopers and LIve interviews with the director, Brando and the members of the band during the shooting of the Music Video.

What Musicians and Fans at Garageband are saying about “The (nfl’s) Sofa League of Heroes”:

“The Real Heroes…It’s clear there was quite a lot of production here. I liked the horn parts, and I could swear they’re real, at least the trombone…it is a hilarious subject for a song…was well played and produced.”–Elliptra Littleton, Colorado

“Nice insanity…horns fit the mood–lyrics and production are good–makes me wonder what gave you the idea for the mood and production–works cool. Extra Credit: Production, Lyrics, Melody, Beat, Mood, Originality.”–Mike_Connelly Jefferson City, Missouri October 27th, 2007

“Joe is that you? This sort of sounds a bit like Joe Strummer and the Mescalaros. I like the horns and the bizarreness of this. It’s a well done tune and you can tell you guys have talent.”–Gloomman Atlanta, Japan

“Nice…Enjoyed the song, great use of a variety of instruments, loved the brass instruments in there. The song was put together very well and I definitely would listen to it again.”–AphoticMurder Vista, California

“It’s an American thing…a reflection on the great American pastime of being an armchair football spectator. It’s got a real weekend beer and TV feel to it with the lazy sounding horns accenting the overall relaxed mood of the rest of the song musically and lyrically… I pretty much get what you’re on about and the music conveys that well.”–Lancedeboyle Albany Creek, Brisbane, Australia

“So Funny, this song is so funny, a real NFL football fan. My favorite part is the Horns and the backup singers. This song has a personality of its own, I like it!”–Glitchbandon from Bandon, Oregon
