Family Tools - Wednesdays at 8:30PM ET/PT on ABC
Premieres Wednesday, May 1, 2013 at 8:30PM ET/PT

by Pavan

Mixing family with business is never easy, and Jack Shea (Kyle Bornheimer) is about to learn that lesson the hard way. When Jack's father, Tony (J.K. Simmons), has a heart attack and is forced to hand over the keys to his beloved handyman business, Jack is eager to finally step up and make his father proud. Unfortunately Jack's past career efforts have been less than stellar, so everyone seems to be waiting for him to fail. His new job isn't made any easier by Tony's rebellious, troublemaking assistant, Darren (Edi Gathegi), and Darren's flirtatious sister, Stitch (Danielle Nicolet), who works at the local hardware store. But with the support of his Aunt Terry (Leah Remini) and his oddball yet endearing cousin Mason (Johnny Pemberton), Jack Shea may just find his true calling right at home.

Cast Details:

Kyle Bornheimer as Jack Shea
J.K. Simmons as Tony Shea
Edi Gathegi as Darren Poynton
Johnny Pemberton as Mason Baumgardner
Danielle Nicolet as Stitch Poynton
Leah Remini as Terry Baumgardner

Kyle Bornheimer (Jack Shea) made his television debut in 2008 as the hapless Sam Briggs in the critically-acclaimed CBS series, Worst Week. His performance in the lead role landed him rave reviews from critics across the country. TV Guide called Bornheimer the "biggest comic discovery of the new season," while Entertainment Weekly wrote "Bornheimer is the find of the fall season." His performance also earned him a spot on Entertainment Weekly's 2009 "Dream Emmy Ballot" list in the Best Lead Actor (Comedy) category. In 2010 he co-starred opposite Alyssa Milanp on the ABC sitcom Romantically Challenged. Bornheimer was a series regular in the NBC comedy series Perfect Couples in 2011. His other television credits include guest starring roles on The Office, Party Down and Breaking Bad. On the big screen, in 2010 Bornheimer starred opposite Kristen Bell, Odette Annable, Sigourney Weaver, Jamie Lee Curtis and Betty White in the Disney feature You Again. His scene-stealing performance as Tim, a jilted ex-boyfriend, earned him positive reviews from critics, including USA Today and The Los Angeles Times, who noted "...it's Kyle Bornheimer... who makes the best impression. Most recently Bornheimer starred in the upcoming independent feature, Bachelorette, opposite Kirsten Dunst, Isla Fisher and James Marsden, and can now be seen as Katherine Heigl's estranged husband in The Wedding, with Robert DeNiro, Diane Keaton, Susan Sarandon and Amanda Seyfried.

When it comes to decision on joining "super conference" no one has it tougher than Bangor

http://blogs.mcall.com/groller/

FROM KEITH GROLLER

By now, most everyone knows that invitations have been extended by the Mountain Valley Conference to 12 schools to join what would be the six remaining MVC schools in 2014-15 to form an 18-school class 4A "super conference."

By now,everyone knows that the ten LVC schools offered invitations were not only all class 4A schools, but also public schools.

And by now everyone should also have figured out that the reason Bethlehem Catholic and Central Catholic were not extended invitations was much more about the fact that they are private schools and has very little to do with the fact that they are 3A  and not 4A. That becomes even more clearer when you hear that the MVC has no inclination to invite Becahi and CCHS even if they agree to go 4A.

You'd also have to have just arrived in the Lehigh Valley from another planet not to know there has been considerable discord, seemingly forever, over the ability of private schools to attract student-athletes and accusations about how some of those athletes arrived at those schools.

However. in just the last couple of days we've learned that not everyone agrees that the 10 LVC schools should flee to the Mountain Valley Conference, much like five schools did back in 1997 when the purpose was pretty much the same. Only that time Allen, Dieruff and Emmaus were also left behind after Parkland, Whitehall, Freedom, Liberty and Easton bolted.

Ultimately, though, the 10 LVC schools will probably make sure they're in unison if a move is to be made. It's hard to imagine some schools going to the MVC and other staying behind, no matter how much they support Becahi and CCHS and feel they've been mistreated here.

Likewise, Phillipsburg's decision will be made in accordance with their status in New Jersey. Jersey has a variety of rules and one of them is that any school must play X-amount of games against schools in the Garden State to be considered for a state championship. If the Stateliners can't navigate that, and some other scheduling issues caused by their location on the east side of the Delaware River, my guess is that they won't come even though they'd probably like to.

The one school, it seems to me, with the biggest dilemma, is Bangor, a member of the Colonial League.

In terms of geography, the Slaters are positioned as a good fit for the Mountain tier of the potential ''super conference." It's much easier for the Slaters to get to games in Pleasant Valley, Stroudsburg, and the two Pocono Mountain schools, for example, than it is to get to places like Salisbury, Southern Lehigh and even Northern Lehigh.

The Slaters are on the 4A/3A border in classification in most sports, much like East Stroudsburg North. But they'd be going from being the biggest school district in the Colonial League to one of the smallest in the super conference. They'd also be going from a league where they can be very competitive and challenge for league championships in a lot of sports to a league where it would  be much, much more difficult to ever win titles

So it's a tough call.

Bangor superintendent Frank DeFelice, a former Northampton boys basketball coach, admitted as much when I talked to him on Monday.

"We're going to take a serious look at this, and there's a lot to weigh," DeFelice said. "Obviously, there are advantages to going and disadvantages as well. Whatever we decide, it's going to be in the best interests of our athletes. We feel we have a quality athletic program here at Bangor. We've shown we're competitive and play good league and nonleague schedules. We already play a number of Mountain Valley schools, so we feel we'd fit into any situation that we come upon here.  

"We're going to do some research, but most importantly, we're going to talk to our coaches and see how they feel about it. There's going to be a lot of opinions, but we're going to try to listen to everybody. The school board will eventually make the decision, but right now, I am just glad that we were invited."

The only thing that will remain, no matter what, is the football game between Bangor and Pen Argyl.

"Our football game, our rivalry with Pen Argyl, is important to the Slate Belt. It always has been. It's something that we won't give up, no matter what we decide. We'll always have a relationship with Pen Argyl."

Brenton’s Hope Dance-A-Thon

May 10^th 8am-8pm

Attention all clubs, activities, and sports teams. The NAHS Sophomore Class is sponsoring a 12 hour dance-a- thon in support of a fallen classmate. We are asking that each club, sport, or activity here at Nazareth High School support this cause by sending at least one member as a representative to participate in the Brenton’s Hope Dance-A- Thon. All funds raised will help to fund Brenton’s Hope Foundation which directly supports local families stricken with childhood leukemia. We are hoping to register 100 dancers/ standers each with 100 dollars of pledges. This is a great method of showing unity and school spirit for a great foundation. The Sophomore class officers have worked really hard and have a vision of this becoming a yearly event. With your help and participation we could make this a noteworthy experience for all!!!

Sincerely,

Sophomore Ex. Officers

Mr. Kratzer Sophomore Class Advisor
