Vicksmetal Company is officially in operation
by MBJ Staff
Published: October 5,2009
Tags: Steel Summit Holdings Inc., VICKSBURG, Vicksmetal Company
VICKSBURG — On Sept. 29, Steel Summit Holdings Inc. celebrated the grand opening of its new division, Vicksmetal Company (VMC), at a ribbon-cutting ceremony in Vicksburg. Steel Summit Holdings is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sumitomo Corporation, headquartered in Tokyo, Japan.
VMC currently occupies a 26,500-square-foot facility at the Port of Vicksburg. The company produces transformer cores for manufacturers of electrical transformers and voltage regulators. Its operations include cutting, forming, assembling, annealing and testing core loops that can range in weight from a few pounds to more than 1,000 pounds each.
The company currently employs 10 workers on one shift and has plans to add more equipment, at least 15 additional employees and up to two additional shifts over the next year. Steel Summit Holdings has invested approximately $4 million in this project to date.
"I have the great honor and privilege to open this new company here in the industrial community at the Port of Vicksburg," said Mike Inoue, president of VMC. "Although we have supplied the transformer industry for 25 years with slit electrical steel through our Vicksmetal Armco Associates (VAA) facility located in the same industrial park, the new VMC now provides even greater opportunities to serve the transformer manufacturers here in the Southeast. As this new venture succeeds, we will look for further opportunities for expansion and for greater contributions to this community."
The Mississippi Development Authority worked with the company to provide job training assistance.
"We are pleased to welcome Vicksmetal Company, a new division of Steel Summit Holdings, to Mississippi and are excited about the jobs this facility will create," said Gray Swoope, executive director of the Mississippi Development Authority. "I applaud Steel Summit Holdings for expanding its operations in Mississippi and look forward to working with the company to help it continue to succeed and grow in the years to come."

Tarvaris Jackson signs with Seattle Seahawks
Seattle coach Pete Carroll says he expects Jackson to compete with Brady Quinn for the backup quarterback position.
Seattle Times staff reporter
RENTON — Tarvaris Jackson may indeed turn out to be Seattle's backup quarterback in 2013.
But Jackson won't just be handed the job, Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said, even if he was Seattle's starting quarterback in 2011.
Jackson was not signed in time for Seattle's final minicamp practice Thursday, though the team made it official later in the day.
But after the workout — the last time the Seahawks will be on the field until training camp in late July — Carroll said Jackson will compete with Brady Quinn for the backup spot behind Russell Wilson, instead of immediately replacing Quinn in that role.
"He will compete with Brady, and that will be a really good battle for us to see what happens at that spot,'' Carroll said. "Russell is our quarterback, there is no question about that. But if Tarvaris comes back in, he understands the system, we are very familiar with him, he is comfortable with the settings and surroundings.''
And the return of Jackson may help answer one of the bigger questions looming over a Seahawk season laden with unprecedented expectations — what happens if Wilson gets hurt?
Wilson was a revelation throughout his rookie season in 2012, when he beat out free-agent signee Matt Flynn for the starting job.
Flynn was later traded to Oakland, however, and the Seahawks then signed Quinn in April, apparently content to take their chances with a player who has a career record of 4-16 as a starter.
But then Jackson — who was traded by the Seahawks to Buffalo last August — was cut by the Bills earlier this week, having never really gotten a shot to become the starter there.
Carroll said it was a no-brainer to bring back Jackson — who was 7-7 in 14 starts for the Seahawks in 2011 — to compete with Quinn and add some security behind Wilson.
"I think it's a great boost for us in a competitive sense,'' Carroll said.
Carroll also said bringing back Jackson should not be seen as a reflection on Quinn. The coach said Quinn has been "next to perfect'' in terms of fulfilling his responsibilities as a backup.
"Brady has done a fine job,'' Carroll said. "But it just makes us that much stronger.''
The Seahawks kept just two quarterbacks on the active roster last season, so the battle looms as one of the more interesting for Seattle during preseason.
"It will be hard, it will be tough,'' Carroll said. "That's what competition is all about."
• Seattle survived the nine offseason training activity workouts and three minicamp practices of the last month suffering just one new, significant injury — the torn Achilles tendon that will cause backup tight end Anthony McCoy to miss the season.
Otherwise, the two main injury questions for Seattle entering summer break are defensive end Chris Clemons and guard James Carpenter, each continuing to rehab from knee surgeries. Clemons, who tore his ACL in the playoff win at Washington, could be ready for the start of the season, Carroll said, though the coach also said there is no assurance he will be ready. "Everybody would like to get him back the first day of camp, but that's not important to me,'' Carroll said. "We'll get him back when he's ready and he can endure all of that.''
Carroll said of Carpenter that "we expect he will make it back'' for the beginning of training camp.
• In one of the most positive developments of minicamp, defensive end Cliff Avril got on the field for about a dozen plays Thursday. Avril had been limited through OTAs and minicamp with a plantar-fascia injury.
"He looked really good, and that's a good sign for him and all of us going into the break now that we know he'll be back and ready to go,'' Carroll said.
• Carroll said RB Robert Turbin had a sore foot that caused him to sit out the last two days, but it is not considered serious and he will be ready for training camp.

Gwen Stefani Gossip
Gwen Stefani gossip, latest news, photos, and video.
Carpets & Candids: Gwen's dots and big squares
Tim Boyles/ Getty
The dots are the neutral here, non? I love this so much. Especially because those pants are cut wide just below the hips. It creates a great shape, to say nothing of the comfort. Full Article
Carpets & Candids: Gwen's red kicks
I'm not into red shoes, generally. But I think I might have to qualify that – I'm not into red heels. When it's a biker boot like this? YES. Full Article
Carpets & Candids: Gwen's shouldered sweater
I don't pull this word out very often but this sweater? Is dope. Wondering if it would have the same effect on someone with broad shoulders. Full Article
Apollo. Apollo?
I mean look, I guess they can name their kids whatever they want. I've seen them do it. And after you've had sons named Kingston and Zuma, you can't easily call the next one Kevin. So I get it and, in fact, I like Apollo better than Kingston or Zuma. It seems like the kind of name that would be a hero in a tween sitcom. Full Article
Smutty Fitness: Pregnancy proteins and fitness
Stoianov /FAMEFLYNET PICTURES
Hi Hayley, I hope you can help me. I'm expecting at the end of spring, this is my first and I've gone completely off the rails health-wise. Last spring I was going to the gym regularly and eating well. Over the summer I fell off the rails a little, I got busy and healthy eating and workouts went to end of my priority list. Full Article
Carpets & Candids: Gwen's tartan top
Gio/ Splash
I have to buy this. All over tartan right now. Bought myself a pair red tartan pumps a few weeks ago – they're my current favourite. Check them out here. RIGHT???? Not that I would wear them with this top. Full Article
Carpets & Candids: Gwen's dress toy
This dress is like a toy, isn't it? She's playing with it. She's having so much fun with it. I would too if I were wearing it. I'd shake it around and make it move, get it shimmering and flaring in all different directions. But I don't like it so much when it lies flat. Full Article
Carpets & Candids: Gwen's blazer, pants, hair
Love this look overall. Blazer has great shoulders, pants fit so well (I wish I could make mine fit like this), and I'm digging her hair here because you can see the layers. My hair is so dark you can't ever see any layers even when they're there. Full Article
Carpets & Candids: Gwen's Easter whites and plaids
FameFlynet, MAP/Splash
Can't decide how I feel about this gauzy white dress over jeans but I do like the high cut back of her coat. Also love the pompoms on the ends of her black wrap that she wore over a long red plaid skirt. The Rossdale kids have the cutest, most hilarious faces, non? Especially Zuma. He makes me laugh every time I see him. Full Article
Sasha Finds: Gwen Stefani's denim jacket
My friend from back home sent me an email demanding that I find her Gwen Stefani's denim jacket, so sorry dudes, nepotism calls so I'm bumping this request up on the priority list. Gwen is wearing the Lenny... Full Article
Carpets & Candids: Gwen's optical illusion pants
Love the coat, but I'm surprised about these pants. Optical illusion pants on someone like Gwen Stefani are supposed to be super flattering. But these...around the calves especially...I'm not feeling. Full Article
Carpets & Candids: Gwen's wrap
Looks so comfortable. Is probably very expensive. But you'd keep it forever. Though not sure about the cheongsam underneath. You know, just to visit a friend. Full Article
Carpets & Candids: This is Gwen dressed down
Messy bun, baggy-ish pants that still look pretty cute shoved into boots, and a well fit black blazer with a great trim, and maybe some stains on the shoulder. This is what happens when Gwen Stefani just "grabs whatever clothes are just lying around" which, um, I would totally wear on a nice night out. Full Article
Carpets & Candids: Gwen's two AMA blazers
Wenn, Jason Merritt/ Kevin Winter/ Getty
On the carpet it was sparkly Balmain over leather leggings from the RTW Fall 2012 collection – click to see it on the runway where it was also paired with leather trousers but with more structure, which I prefer. Full Article

Yup and Willie almost over managed the game. Stupid taking Hielman out when the first two batters in ninth were right handed who promptly got hits off Wagner......
i could not be any more happy for this kid....if he can continue to get better no doubt in my mind he would make a great back of the rotation starter for years to come.......
and a very special thank you to the baltimore orioles who wouldnt know a good pitcher if one fell on them.
Yup and Willie almost over managed the game. Stupid taking Hielman out when the first two batters in ninth were right handed who promptly got hits off Wagner......
Maine pitched a hell of a game. Congrats to him and thank you. The 6th game magical tradition continues.
Wagner scares the hell outta me. I went from extremely happy to completely flipping out. He better get it together.
Willie managed a great game. Knew how long to keep Maine in, let him hit in bottom of fifth and pitch into the 6th but he was starting to get wild, went to Bradford to get the DP. Bradford has been excellent this series, so many big outs. And then going to Mota instead of Feliciano to face Duncan, wasn't by the book but worked. Walking Pujols with 1st base open. And having Tucker and Reyes run in the 7th leading to two runs.Originally Posted by FloridaJet
As for brining in Wagner, you have to do that, he's the closer, he pitches the 9th, Wagner is not someone you bring in based on righty/lefty matchups. Unfortunately he hasn't inspired much confidence recently, but he did his job tonight, wasn't comfortable but I don't care as long as he got it done. Wagner hadn't pitched since Fri night so had some rust, better to lose that tonight than tomorrow.
Maine - what more can be said, amazing performance, getting out of trouble in the 1st inning was HUGE, give up runs there and who knows what happens.
there was really no need to bring in Wagner at all.
We were up 4 runs, let Heilman just finish it out and save Wagner in case we need a save in game 7 or if Heiman fell apart in the 9th this game. Now Wagner is pretty much shot for tomorrow (regardless of his pitching performance).
To the contrary, Wagner hadn't pitched since Friday, I like his chances of getting it done tomorrow better pitching tonight than if he hadn't pitched at all, got a chance to shake off the rust.Originally Posted by 49ersJetsfan
Look, Wagner's sucked recently, but at the end of the day he gets it done more often than not. He's the closer and when you're playing a must win game, you bring him in to start the 9th inning with a 4 run lead.

|Minor looking for smooth ride with Braves in 2013
|Written by Admin
|Wednesday, 13 February 2013 11:22
He's hoping for a smoother trip this year.
The Atlanta Braves left-hander got off to rocky start to 2012, being roughed up in his debut against the Mets. After two positive performances, he spent the next two months watching a lot of balls sail over fences.
But Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez said Wednesday they never lost faith in Minor and kept him in the rotation. It took a loss against the New York Yankees on June 12 to start turning the season around.
Minor will likely slot into the No. 3 starter spot for the Braves.

Rename (alt titles 5/15): BLAM Episode get usage counts

I've got Sunshine!So I can't help but notice that a lot of the entries on this page are simply calling out filler episodes. Filler episodes by themselves shouldn't be a BLAM if they don't do anything out of the ordinary for the show just because the plot halts for the duration. And for that matter, even episodes that alter the usual formula shouldn't in and of themselves be BLA Ms just because they're trying a different format. For example, "The Beach" from Avatar The Last Airbender is on here, despite the fact that it still moves the main plot along, greatly develops the villainous characters motivations and personalities, and DOES get referenced again (several times in fact). And on top of that, the plot with the actual main characters IS relevant to the main plot. It's only qualifying factor is...it shows the villains outside their normal routine. Actually, only one episode in the Avatar entry is pure filler, and even IT got a call out late in the show. There's a lot of entries on the page that read like this too. Something to keep in mind if this trope is going to get merged.

Gentleman Troper!Hey, that's a good point, this does seem redundant. Sure, but that's a matter for another thread.
Special trousers. Very heroic.
As I understand it, A Day at the Bizarro doesn't always count as a BLAM Episode, hence why they are separate tropes. The weirdness of A Day at the Bizarro could have an in-universe explanation such as it being a dream, and/or the episode could turn out to have some significance later. BLAM Episodes aren't just weird; they are weird without any explanation. They come and go and are never mentioned again. These are not the same trope, as examples of one can be disqualified from being examples of the other. I wouldn't take any action unless there's clear evidence of confusion between WHAM episode and BLAM Episode.

even older skoolx5 Holdovers like that are a good thing in some ways. I would prefer for the name of any merged trope resulting from this to at least mention the term BLAM.
I'm no sure an episode is a separate, but some of the examples don't fit, at any rate. In particular, if it's about episodes, it shouldn't have any film examples unless we are talking about a long franchise that has one entry which is wildly different in tone or genre (like Jason X, maybe).

A Day at the Bizzaro isn't really the same thing. It's a subtrope. BLAM would be any sudden, temporary change in genre or theme and a Day at the Bizarro would be a surreal version of this.
42 Spark 9, Tue, 15th May '12 3:33:47 PM from Castle Wulfenbach Relationship Status: Too sexy for my shirt
Gentleman Troper!The previous crowner indicates a strong consensus that yes, this is the same thing (or at least, close enough to be on the same page).
Special trousers. Very heroic.
BLAM Episode probably wouldn't exist as a separate concept on this wiki if someone didn't give it a name that references Big Lipped Alligator Moment. A Day at the Bizarro should be enough to cover weird episodes, surreal or not. If BLAM Episode really is significantly different enough as a concept, then why not just expand Big Lipped Alligator Moment to include whole episodes and move them there? Otherwise, go ahead with the merge and call the page A Day at the Bizarro.
44 lu 127, Mon, 28th May '12 8:31:18 AM from the Forest of Thorns Relationship Status: Loves me...loves me not
A Day at the Bizarro should be enough to cover weird episodes, surreal or not. BLAM Episode specifically says that it's not just for episodes that are "strange." It's about episodes that don't make sense within the context and continuity of the rest of the series. I'm starting to get annoyed by these TRS threads where no one even bothers to read the descriptions of the tropes they're talking about.
BLAM Episode specifically says that it's not just for episodes that are "strange." It's about episodes that don't make sense within the context and continuity of the rest of the series.So would Nonsensical Episode or Discontinuous Episode or Context Contradicting Episode be more fitting, then?
"I even like the idea of a nice man who sees me when I'm sleeping and knows when I'm awake. And that man is Barack Obama." - Bill Maher
I initially argued against a merge for that very reason, but I decided to concede on that point since the crowner showed an overwhelming consensus to merge. What else can I do?

Farm Aid was started by Willie Nelson, Neil Young and John Mellencamp in 1985 to keep family farmers on the land and has worked since then to make sure everyone has access to good food from family farmers.

Colorado and Oregon: Vote to Support the mandatory labeling of GMO foods!Saturday, November 1st, 2014
Farm Aid supports these measures because GE labeling is good for family farmers and all of us who eat. Labeling GE foods will help family farmers who do not plant GE seeds have a stronger market for selling their goods. It will make finding non-GE seeds easier and more affordable. It will help ensure organic farmers can stay organic. And labeling GE foods will let all of us decide what kind of food we eat and feed our families.
Voters in several other states can weigh in on food and farm-related issues. For a rundown on all of them, please visit our blog: http://j.mp/farm_votes
And please remember to get out and vote on November 4!

Stand up for Family Farmers #FarmAidThursday, October 23rd, 2014
Family farmers can't do it alone. They need our voices to join them in demanding contract fairness, market transparency, and protection from retaliation when they speak out. Together, farmers and eaters can work together to make Congress enforce rules already on the books that level the playing field for family farmers.
As a Farm Aid supporter, we know you care about the people who grow our food and believe they deserve a fair chance to make an honest living.
That's because our meat supply is controlled by a handful of corporations that get to write the rules. This doesn't just affect our choice at the grocery store; it affects how independent farmers and ranchers can make a living.
Join Farm Aid and tell Congress to stand up for family farmers by protecting the GIPSA rules.
With only a few huge corporations in control, meatpackers and poultry giants — like Smithfield and Tyson — exert their power through contracts with the farmers who raise livestock. Under the contract system, companies:
- Force farmers to make expensive investments while offering little security in return.
- Intimidate and retaliate against farmers when they speak out about abuses or exercise their right to free speech and association.
- Unfairly cancel farmers' contracts, leaving far too many farmers saddled with debt and at risk of losing their farms.
Now meatpackers are attacking one of the most important policies we have to protect farmers. That policy, called GIPSA, provides fair competition and contract rules that protect farmers from corporate abuse (read our Fair and Competitive Livestock Markets fact sheet for more information). The meat lobby is trying to block the U.S. Department of Agriculture from enforcing the GIPSA rules. But we can fight back today!
Family farmers can't do it alone. They need our voices to join them in demanding contract fairness, protection from retaliation and market transparency. Together, farmers and eaters can work to protect the GIPSA rules. Thank you for speaking up for family farmers today!

Top 5 inkjet printers
Inkjet printers have evolved far beyond home and student use; our top-ranked models are fast, full-featured office workhorses that compete well with the lowest-cost color lasers -- even on cost per page
Ranging from $100 to $230, these inkjet printers from Canon, Epson, and HP differ in speed, print quality, paper capacity, and features. In addition to whether you need Wi-Fi or wired Ethernet or just USB, consider whether you'll sacrifice print quality for print speed. Also consider how much you're willing to spend on ink: costs per four-color page range from about 7 cents to nearly 20. Most of all, think about where print quality is most important for you: text, graphics, landscape photos, or photos of people. You can't have it all.

Historical Traveler Reviews Hilton Dallas Park Cities
Thin Walls
The rooms are nice and clean, the location is good, but the walls are very thin. I could hear conversations in the neighboring rooms that were at normal level. One morning I woke up to my neighbor's wake up call. Also, the business center is not cheap. Free Internet on the executive floor, though.
Location 10 service 4
I loved the location of this Hotel, surrounded by office towers, (very urban), but a few blocks walk from many shops, restaurants, etc. My room was small but very clean... but the Front Desk staff uncaring. Breakfast is an hour long ordeal unless you do the buffett. Sat in the bar from 5pm until 5:30pm without seeing any servers or bartenders!
It was ok
I stayed here for business on recommendation of someone who officed in the area. The location was good for this one meeting, but there was not a whole lot to do near there. The room was ok but for the price, I would probably not stay there again. Also, I did not get the room type that I requested and the front desk staff seemed indifferent to this. The car park people were extremely friendly, quick and helpful. Staff in restaurant was below average. At 7 in the morning, I would not expect to have to search out someone to refill my coffee.
Huge room, great service
Spent two nights at the Park Cities Hilton recently in room 527. This is an Alcove corner room. It faces downtown Dallas. The hotel is in a great area with lots of shopping and eating options. But the window opens with a nice view of the downtown Dallas skyline. The room itself is huge - probably about 700 square feet. The decor was very nice throughout the hotel. The staff was professional and courteous. We never ate at the restaurant or used the pool or fitness facilities. But everything else we experienced, from the accomodations to the hospitality, was top notch.
Great experience at this hotel
Hosted a meeting here and had a very fine experience. Would recommend highly. Upscale. Feels like New York.
Pleasant Experience
Spent two nights at the Hilton Park Cities in Dallas Texas. Nice hotel in a pretty area of Dallas. Convenient to shopping and dining with a central Dallas location. Lobby and guest room very nice and clean. Staff pleasant. We stayed on the concierge level floor with access to continental breakfast and evening drinks and appetisers. Food was average. Our only complaint would be the bed pillows. All needed replacement. Take your own if possible. Would stay there again.
Save your $$
I visited The Hilton Park Cities for a weekend. Overll the hotel is fairly nice, but service is what counts for me. I found that there was an attitude of indifference throughout. If I wanted attitude I would stay at a much more exclusive hotel. My room key did not work and they thought they did me a favor by getting me another one. The food in the restaurant was as greasy as a truckstop...make sure you hit the town rather then eating at the hotel. The list goes on, but I will stop now. Overall for the price paid.........I should have stayed at a much more "service" oriented luxury property.
An Evening Affair
I do agree that the reviewer below is sadly mistaken about their stay at the Hilton. Their poor attitude is probably what contributed to their "terrible" experience vs. the hotel itself.
I recently had an evening wedding reception at this hotel. As a whole, this hotel contributed to my wedding day as a million times better than I could've imagined. The events coordinator was personable and excellent, the valet staff did a terrific job shuffling 200 guests of out their cars, the wait staff did not let you get out of your seats to do anything but serve you during dinner, and the bartenders went out of their way to make or find the right drinks for you. Most of all, the chef was excellent and all entrees, including its presentation, was in culinary-style. This is the same chef who heads the OPIO restaurant, the reviewer mentioned below. The food and service was so good, that we requested a post-brunch at the very last minute for our guests at the restaurant the next morning.
This hotel is not your extravagant typical hotel, but a new, modern, simplistic, and contemporary hotel when you walk in, the lobby decor and ambiance gives you the impression you are in a boutique in Paris or Italy during the Romantic Era.
All weddings aside, obviously customer service and food is excellent at this hotel. The standard rooms and suites are modern-decor, very clean, and spacious. The front lobby, bellmen, and hotel staff were excellent in responding to requests. This is also a great location since you are in central dallas, five minutes from downtown, five minutes to the Galleria and restaurant row, and five minutes from all the nightlife.
What more can you ask for?
Dallas Park Cities is a fine hotel.
I don't know what planet the previous guy is on... but... I've been going to Dallas Park Cities since it opened, on business, about once every 3 months. I've been there about 5 times now. The rooms are clean and comfortable, the service is fine, they always offer to bring my bags up, (but I refuse... because that's just silly when you have one carry-on...) I even needed to print an email, and they let me behind the counter into the office to print - no questions asked. I'm young, and many times have to deal with sub-par service because I'm young... this has never been an issue here. I've never eaten at their restaurant, but it looks nice -- and I'm sure the joker above was blowing it out of proportion. (Since when to hotels actually "lose" reservations anymore?? really... He probably didn't confirm his internet reservation.)-NYC jk
Great stay!
Took my wife for a little getaway...wanted somewhere where we could relax for the weekend and get a little r&r. The Hilton was definitely the place for that!
The place had a very homey feel...and the neighborhood was like one in NYC. We walked to a great restaurant down the street (Tramontana) for dinner, then walked to Starbucks for a late night latte.
The breakfast buffet was awesome (try either the French toast or the Eggs Benedict...or both!) and the price was great $11 a person.
Service was awesome - friendly yet relaxed. Would definitely go there for another urban get away!

... within the maze and get out of the maze in the quickest time. We managed 13 minutes and were extremely proud of ourselves when we received marbles as our prize.
The cattle drive was a bit of a letdown though, as it's very staged with a small herd of cattle being released from the pen on the one end and walked by the cowboys back through the roads to the other end. Besides a photo op I'm not sure it played much purpose.

Magnet Conference in summary
So the Magnet conference has been very inspiring, I have learnt a lot about a lot, and being able to network with other nurses just as energetic and excited and as passionate as me has been so valueable. I've loved chatting with them and hearing their stories, I've made some promising connections for later on in my trip that I am definitely going to ensure I follow through. There were 8000+ nurses all in one convention centre. England just doesn't do nursing conferences like ...
Who shot JFK?
- Okay, so we landed in Dallas my colleagues and I with a few hiccups. But we're settled and ready for the ANCC Magnet conference starting on Wednesday. So seeing as it starts on Wednesday, we have done some non nursing exploring. I've bought a cowboy hat, one of my goals whilst in Dallas, and been to the very place that JFK was shot. Conspiracy or no conspiracy its immensely interesting, the museum was fab, really ...

Nice! I have the skirt on my sewing table =). Maybe I'll do the dress too and in the same way like you did – omitting this kind of sleeves. When you have already broad shoulders it isn't flattering with the sleeves.
Jan 7, 2014, 06.44 PMby rastaplur
yes, i also have large shoulders and thought the same about the flapping sleeves.

B1A4, a South-Korean pop boy band, has been amplifying the Korean pop craze ever since their debut performance in 2011 with their debut song entitled "O.K." along with the release of their cute music video to accompany it. They are well known for their cute demeanor and adorable dance moves alongside their iconic fashion sense. I thought I would never see them in person because Korean pop groups tend to have concerts either in the West Coast or the East Coast; it almost feels like the Midwest does not exist in a lot of Korean entertainment companies' eyes. To my surprise, B1A4's managing company decided to hold one of their US concerts on October 5, 2014, at the Rosemont Theatre, right by the blue line Rosemont CTA (Chicago Transit Authority) station.
As I walked towards the concert venue, I was able to see a stream of fans ranging from teenagers to people in their twenties like myself. A lot of fans brought their boom boxes and started playing B1A4's songs alongside other popular Korean pop songs. Some fans decided to make colorful fan signs and one of the fans actually made fan signs for everyone to hold! The intensity of the dedication of many of these fans is very high and many of them even learned all the dance moves to B1A4's popular songs such as "Beautiful Target," "Baby, Goodnight," and "Lonely" and performed them in unison in front of the concert waiting line.

Austin Trout Exclusive Interview: Canelo Vengeance Factor, Strategy and the Future
By Steve Lopez — After the press conference in Houston, TX concluded, Saul Alvarez and Austin Trout took the time to address members of the media for brief one-on-one interviews. I had the opportunity to sit down with Austin Trout to get his perspective on the fight, Canelo's mission to avenge his older brother's loss and what the future may hold for the New Mexico native.
Steve Lopez: "There's a little bit of a vengeance factor. You beat his older brother a while back. How does it feel being in the ring with younger brother trying to avenge the loss?
Austin Trout: "That's not really a factor for me. The thing that I think is cool is that I can take two world titles from two brothers. Other than that, his brother was in my way. Really, if you look at it, he was in the path to get to him. In hindsight, looking back, it was just part of the process.
Steve Lopez: "Back in December when you fought Cotto, a lot people had you as the underdog. Kind of a similar story again. I, myself, give you a great chance. In another interview, you mentioned that Canelo won't be taking advantage of the weight gain he has over other fighters. How do you think that's going to play out? Usually, he's the bully."

Canelo Alvarez vs. Austin Trout: Houston, TX Press Conference Summary
By: Steve Lopez – Day 2 of the 3-city Texas press tour for the highly anticipated super welterweight showdown between undefeated WBC Super Welterweight Champion Saul "Canelo" Alvarez and WBA Super Welterweight Champion Austin "No Doubt" Trout continued this Thursday in Houston, TX. I had the privilege to attend the conference and here are some of the highlights from the event.
With a large Latin American community, the Houston, TX crowd was undoubtedly pro-Canelo.
"Canelo! Canelo! Canelo! Canelo!"
That was the instant reaction of the crowd when Saul Alvarez took the podium on Thursday's Houston, TX Press Conference. The roars were so loud that one could somewhat feel the vibrations of the roars in the air. But before the fighters took the stand, promoters and members of each team addressed the media and the fans to hype up the event. Here are some notable quotes from the conference. Continue reading
A Cross Road fight for McCreedy this Saturday against Walchuk
By James Stillerman – "Irish" Joe McCreedy (13-6-2, 6KOs) will leave it all on the line this Saturday night, in a do or die fight against Michael "Flash" Walchuk (9-8, 2OKs) in front of his hometown crowd at the Tsongas Center at UMass Lowell. This will be a eight round bout for the vacant U.S. Northeast Light Heavyweight belt, in a fight if he does not win, he might contemplate retirement.
"This is a significant fight for me because if I lose than I`m taking a major step back and I might retire," said McCreedy. "Nevertheless, I want to prove everyone wrong with this fight by winning and getting back to bigger and better fights. The media thinks my career is over and that I`m washed up after my last performance, but I like being the underdog with my back against the wall. I`m going to prove everyone wrong and show that I`m a force at the light heavyweight division, starting this Saturday against Walchuk."
In order for McCreedy`s career to continue in the right direction, he`s going to have to defeat the tough Canadian, Walchuk who is aggressive and has good power punching. Walchuk has been in with the likes of Vladine Boisse and undefeated fighters like Francy Ntetu, Eleider Alvarez and Adam Trupish, making his record deceiving. Continue reading
Exclusive Interview with Iceman John Scully
"Maybe there's an outside chance this is just a ploy to draw interest, because I think Hopkins knows that if in a year from now, if he was ever to put it together and fight Andre Ward in the last hurrah, and if he was ever to win—you know there are some very smart people that might call this guy the best fighter in history."—Iceman John Scully
Exclusive Interview by Geoffrey Ciani – Last night I was afforded the opportunity to speak with world class boxing trainer 'Iceman' John Scully about the current boxing landscape. Scully shared his views on Bernard Hopkins' history making performance last weekend when he broke his own record to once again become the oldest boxer to win a major world title, this time at age 48, with his sensational victory against previously undefeated Tavoris Cloud. Iceman also provided unique insight into some highly anticipated upcoming prizefights, including Floyd Mayweather vs. Robert Guerrero (May 4), the rematch between Carl 'The Cobra' Froch and Mikkel Kessler (May 25), and the super bantamweight showdown between Nonito Donaire and Guillermo Rigondeaux (April 13). Additionally he imparted opinions pertaining to the careers of other boxing stars such as Wladimir Klitschko, Manny Pacquiao, Timothy Bradley, and more. Here is what Iceman had to say:

Agbeko holds media workout in Accra ahead of Mendelez fight
By Prince Dornu-Leiku – Former world boxing champion, Joseph King Kong Agbeko says he is in the top shape of his life as he prepares to face Colombian slugger, Luis Mendelez for the IBO Bantamweight belt in Accra on March 24.
The Ghanaian returns to the ring for the first time since losing the rematch of the epic battle against Abner Mares in December 2011 when he fights Mendelez in the Ghanaian capital next weekend, the first top level world title fight in this country in over 25 years.
Fit, strong and healthy, Agbeko invited the Ghanaian media to watch him train under the tutelage of new coach, Ofori Asare who is renowned for his great work with many of Ghana's best amateur boxers over the years. Continue reading
The Setup: Mayweather vs. Broner
By Robert Jackson: With the news that Adrien Broner will be facing WBA 147lb Champion Paulie Malignaggi next, why this move and not Amir Khan, or Lamont Peterson both available 1 weight class up at 140lb? Furthermore after only 2 fights there, Broner hasn't cleaned out the 135lb weight class he just moved into from the 130lb division. At 135lbs, Yuri Gamboa has been calling Broner out and this writer believes that would be a makeable, great fight. 135lb Champion Richard Abril also has Broner in his sights.
Promoted by Golden Boy Promotions both Malignaggi and Broner will be in a showcase fight, but I would expect Broner to win and maybe stop the Brooklyn native. It would probably resemble Mayweather/Gatti. This would be the best case scenario for Golden Boy, who as promoters of the heir apparent to Money Mayweather would have bragging rights and the next big star. Broner's upward mobility, flashy style and good looks could even upstage Canelo Alvarez who's also vying to be the next great fighter.
But don't get it wrong, Golden Boy is moving Broner up to 147lbs for a reason and as every fight historian will tell you the torch is passed by the veteran fighter taking on the up-and-comer and LOSING to him. This happened in recent times when Kostya Tszyu fought Ricky Hatton and lost passing the 140lb torch to the Englishman. Continue reading
Canelo and Trout Press Tour Notes From San Antonio
By Marc Livitz: in San Antonio, TX. Two undefeated boxing sensations visited the Alamo City this afternoon. In front of perhaps more than five hundred fans, unbeaten Mexican fight superstar and WBC super welterweight champion Saul "Canelo" Alvarez and undefeated WBA Super Welterweight champion Austin "No Doubt" Trout kicked off their 3-city Texas press tour this afternoon. The venue which will host the event on April 20, The Alamodome has been the site of a few memorable fights over the years, most notably the contest of which the highly questionable result still resonates to this day, the September 1993 matchup between Julio Cesar Chavez and Pernell Whitaker, which ended in a dubious draw.
San Antonio mayor Julian Castro was the first to the podium and expressed his sincere happiness of being the host of such a great event for the city. Castro commented, "San Antonio has a rich and proud boxing history. Who could forget in 1993 when (Julio Cesar) Chavez fought (Pernell) Whitaker and other great names such as (James) Leija and (Robert) Quiroga?"
Former boxing great and current CEO of Golden Boy Promotions Oscar de la Hoya was the second speaker and like Mr. Castro, he spoke of the great tradition of San Antonio and his overall feeling of delight of bringing the event to south Texas. Continue reading
Frank Maloney Interview – Talks Heavyweights, Audley Harrison, 'Bums on Seats' and more
By Gianluca (Rio) Di Caro – This coming Friday, March 15th, promoter Frank Maloney returns to the York Hall in Bethnal Green for his latest offering 'Loaded and Dangerous In London', which is headlined by Matt Skelton versus John McDermott for the vacant English Heavyweight title.
This event is a sort of homecoming for Peckham London born Frank, having not promoted at the Capital's home of boxing since his huge show in June 2009, which was headlined by Jason Booth's successful British Super Bantamweight title defense against Rocky Dean.
This classic Frank Maloney Promotions event featured the cream of his stable, including sadly missed former Beijing Olympic Bronze medalist Darren Sutherland, Akaash Bhatia, Ashley Sexton, Martin Power plus a host of local prospects and debutants. Of course being a FMP event it had to include a Heavyweight bout, in this case Tom Dallas versus Stas Bilokon.
Before I get carried away and start talking too much about that excellent event, I'll change tack and move on to Frank's greatest passion within the sport and of course his interview. Continue reading
Bernard Hopkins: Not even father time can stop the one and only B- Hop
by Andrew Picken: In another display of defiance Hopkins now, (53-6-2, 32 KO wins) rolls back the years and defies the critics by comprehensively beating Tavoris Cloud, (won 24 (KO 19) + lost 1 (KO 0) + drawn 0), to claim the IBF Light Heavyweight title of the world on Saturday night. If there's a nickname he could steal it would have to be Paulie Malignaggis "magic man" as B Hop is still able to talk the talk and walk the walk, magic indeed at 48 years old! Continue reading

- Train – There is a special luxury train that runs in a small area across the vineyards. The train has dining option on board which makes the Sonoma Wine Tours experience all the more special. The train ride might churn out some extra pennies, but it is worth it.
- Horse Carriages – Riding on horse carts transfers you back to the 16th -17th centuries or the Victorian era. This is a new concept which tourists have appreciated a lot.
- Hot Air Balloons – The experience of looking at the wine valley from the top is surely going to be memorable and adventurous. You can see many Hot air balloons above the Sonoma valley. The Sonoma wine tour companies also offer drinks and food on the balloon.
Spending some extra bits on any of these will help you carve memories that will last all your life. Whether you choose an affordable mode or a luxurious one, all are convenient and easy to book. You can simply browse through the web and search for Sonoma Wine Tours. You will be able to find a list of companies to choose from. Act smartly and pick the company that has good reviews and a satisfied clientele. Also, assure yourself that you are booking the best deal and at the most reasonable rates. You must compare the rates and offers with at least 4-5 companies before finalizing any one of them.
