The young Chicago Cardiac Bulls were taught a valuable lesson on Saturday. As great as this team has been in the clutch over the last few weeks, bringing it down to the wire every night is no way to live. To be sure, the Bulls were awfully close to shocking the United Center crowd once again. They were down 12 points with 2:55 left to go, only to rattle off a 13-4 run to make it 118-115 with 32.0 seconds to go. This group deserves credit for staying locked in until the end and putting themselves in a position to potentially steal another game. Nevertheless, what you do over a full 48 minutes matters, and the Bulls simply didnt earn last nights win by coughing up 19 turnovers and allowing 64 points in the paint. Two nights after his heroic effort, Josh Giddey had his worst game in months. The guard came into the night averaging 21.7 points, 10.3 rebounds, and 8.9 assists per game since Feb. 20, and he also recorded three triple-doubles over this stretch. Against a frisky Dallas Mave... [ more ]

This was only eight years after her first work, "The Mysterious Affair at Styles," was published, so she was still quite active when movie versions of her stories began to appear. Starting in 1930, Christie also began penning works for the stage (starting with "Black Coffee"), so she was already a media empire unto herself, years before such a thing had become de rigueur. As of this writing, there have been about 50 official cinema adaptations of Agatha Christie's novels and short stories, close to 40 TV movies, not to mention the long-running TV shows "Agatha Christie's Poirot" (1989 2013) and "Agatha Christie's Miss Marple" (2004 2014), plus a whole host of projects where she is a character herself...

Samuel L. Jacksons Box Office Trick: Why His Films Never Flop Even If He Has To Buy The First 1,000 Tickets
2025-04-15 07:45:04| Spiritual Career Counseling
Samuel L. Jackson knew how to guarantee box office numbers, even if it meant personally fronting the first thousand bucks. During a hilarious appearance on The Graham Norton Show, Jackson cracked the secret: I know when I have a movie thats opening, I know its going to make at least $1,000 that weekend because I buy $1,000 worth of tickets. I give them to the church, or I give them to somebody, and their kids go. Thats not just confidence. Thats commitment. The moment had the audience in stitches, but he wasnt joking. Jackson backed his films, literally. And while $1,000 wouldnt dent todays box office reports, the gesture summed up Jacksons larger-than-life energy. Whether it was Pulp Fiction or Snakes on a Plane, he showed up for his work. Before becoming the legend everyone quoted, Jackson built his resume with films like Coming to America, Goodfellas, and Patriot Games. His big break exploded with Pulp Fiction in 1994. As Jules Winnfield, he delivered Bible verses with gun... [ more ]
