The countdown of the 11 most intriguing questions facing MLS clubs, players and coaches heading into the weekend.
11) After all that wheeling and dealing, which teams improved themselves the most – and the quickest?
A huge trade for Chivas USA, new Designated Players in Chicago, Columbus, Seattle and New York – almost everyone around the league entertained an offer or two as the international transfer window closed and front offices pondered how they could make things better for the season's closing stages. New arrivals will now be challenged to get on the same page as their new colleagues and contribute soon.
10) Another important Friday night match: Can the Red Bulls hold off hot Houston?
The weekend kicks off as New York visit BBVA Compass Stadium for a big-time clash between the Eastern Conference leaders, which will likely also mark Tim Cahill's league debut. While RBNY are still smarting from last week's 3-1 upset loss in Montreal, the Dynamo haven't lost since a 4-2 shellacking by the Impact on June 23, outscoring opponents 13-2 in a 5-0-2 stretch which has seen the Orange prosper in a new 4-3-3 shape.

9) Can Montreal knock off another Eastern rival at Stade Saputo?
The Quebecois are doing their best to make themselves at home in their refurbished ground, including a few attention-grabbing ambushes of very good teams (see No. 10). They have every chance of doing the same to Philadelphia on Saturday, though they must do so without striker Marco Di Vaio, who has flown to his native Italy for a match-fixing hearing.
8) Are the playoffs still within Philly's reach?
Don't look now, but the once-hopeless Union have a winning record under interim manager John Hackworth (right) and sit just nine points out of the East's fifth and final playoff spot. It's a tall order, and this weekend's trip to Montreal represents a tricky challenge. However, with Jack McInerney in form and so much renewed optimism around the Union camp, anything is possible.
7) Can Portland take revenge for the 5-0 whipping FC Dallas laid on them last month?
When the Timbers wilted in Texas on July 21, some called it the most lopsided match of the MLS season so far. The memory of that result alone should raise the temperature at JELD-WEN Field a bit on Sunday night. Speaking of which, FCD seem to be bringing a bit of home with them, as a heat wave is washing over the Pacific Northwest this weekend.
6) How will the Revs begin their PS (post-Shalrie) life?
New England's stunning shipment of iconic midfielder Shalrie Joseph to Chivas USA was the biggest headline of a news-heavy week across the league. The tough Grenadian midfielder defined the Revolution's identity for nearly a decade and he himself admitted he thought he'd retire in the club's colors, but salary and tactical considerations prompted coach Jay Heaps (above, left) and his staff to turn the page. A new era begins against Sporting KC on Saturday.

5) How will Frank Klopas fit Álvaro Fernández into the Fire lineup?
The Men in Red recently pulled off a head-turning trade of their own to acquire the creative midfielder from the Sounders; now they have to find the best combination of their substantial midfield and attacking options. Seattle fell in love with the skillful Uruguayan known as "Flaco," and Klopas (above, right) and the Fire brain trust hopes that Chicago soon will, too, perhaps as early as Saturday's clash against Toronto.
4) Will a return to RFK help D.C. United snuff out a two-game losing skid?
United's consistency and hard work was rewarded with a stint in first place earlier this summer, only for two straight losses – both of them shutouts – to send them sliding down the charts in the tumultuous East. Dwayne De Rosario, Chris Pontius and the rest of the Black-and-Red attack need to rediscover their movement and dynamism in order to break down an organized Columbus squad at RFK Stadium on Saturday night.
3) Can Oscar Pareja get his Rapids in the right state of mind to knock off RSL?
Pareja mixed up his team's practice regimen this week in an effort to lift the gloom around Dick's Sporting Goods Park in the wake of a winless July. He should have no issues with motivation for Real Salt Lake's visit, even though twin 2-0 wins over Colorado earlier this season have already ensured that Real will win their sixth straight Rocky Mountain Cup.
2) Who can best handle the MLS-CCL juggling act?
Toronto and the Sounders kicked off their CONCACAF Champions League campaigns in fine style with convincing home wins this week, while RSL endured a classic "CONCACAF night" in Costa Rica, suffering an ejection and a defeat to Herediano. A smaller group stage means a tighter margin for error in this year's edition of the regional tourney, while continuing to severely test the depth, focus and motivation of the MLS squads involved.
1) Can LA or Seattle lay down a marker in Sunday's primetime clash on ESPN2?
After some severe wobbles, these two finally seem to be asserting themselves as the Western Conference aristocrats everyone expected them to be this year. A playoff vibe will be in effect at noisy CenturyLink Field, where hosts and visitors alike will try to make a statement of intent loud enough to reverberate all the way into the postseason.

A visit to Minnesota gives us a chance to catch up with Jason Pominville, one of the nicer guys you're going to meet in the NHL.
Now a top winger with the Wild, Ottawa fans remember all too well the goal he scored as a Sabre to knock the Senators out of the 2006 playoffs.
Pominville says it remains the biggest goal he has ever scored in this life.
"It's going to be tough to beat," said Pominville. "It was my first year, and playing that team so many times, and I think they were a bit of a favourite, to be able to go in there and pull it off was just an amazing accomplishment.
"I think it kind of established myself as a guy on the team that made me fit in, everyone maybe accepted me as part of the team. It was nice to get that and to really get established in the league."
If you'll remember, Pominville stole the puck from Daniel Alfredsson on his way to scoring the shorthanded, series clincher.
Asked after the game what happened on the play, Alfredsson said he didn't expect to lose control the way he did.
"It's Jason Pominville," he said, insinuating he didn't think the kid would pose any type of threat.
When I mentioned this to Pominville yesterday, he said he understood why Alfredsson would think that way. He says there are a lot of first year players in the league now that he himself does not know very well.
"I had a chance to meet him at he all star game (in Ottawa)," Pominville said of Alfredsson. "He's a good guy. He ended up picking me to be on his team.
"I remember he said, "I never thought I'd do this."

A pedestrian who was struck by a sport-utility vehicle and killed in Pacific Beach has been identified as 47-year-old Jennifer June Suazo, the Medical Examiner's Office said Thursday.
Suazo was running south across Grand Avenue on Sunday night when she was struck by an eastbound Nissan Armada, authorities said. She was taken to a hospital, where she died.

Jackson: I actually think [Stern] took it light on us, because he could have easily kicked us out the league. This is my opinion. Taking $3 million was harsh, but I'd rather give that $3 million up and still have my job than keep the $3 million and be kicked out the league.
O'Neal: I never even told my daughter what happened she found out at school. One day she came home and figured it out and said, "Dad, are you suspended for fighting?" That was hard for me. It was hard for me to have that conversation with my daughter. It was hard for me to go to the Boys & Girls Club, which I was very close with in Indianapolis, St. Vincent's Hospital, talking to the people at St. Vincent Hospital. It's hard for me as a leader of a community. To have these conversations and see the effect that not just the fight itself had on our team, but the perception that it had on the community. A lot of people don't even know that I won all of my court cases.29 I got reinstated. Every case civil, criminal, and suspension from the league I won all of those.O'Neal: Nobody knows this the Pistons security had just told that man to leave the building before that even happened. Nobody knows that that same guy threatened Yao Ming.21 People don't know that. People don't know some of the bad scenarios of the people who were caught up in that situation. But they know everything about the players. That man had been plotting to start fights against players so he could get paid. That's a fact.

Have Antique Repair Questions? Ask an Antique Appraiser
Judith on Antiques, Hello! It's been a while. I have a couple of items to ask about. The first is a Southern Cross of Honor, marked United Daughters Confederacy, To the U.C.V. on the back it is marked Patented Charles W. Crankshaw Atlanta. The second item I believe was used to fasten shoe loops. The third item is a mystery. I don't know what it is. It is metal, about three inches long, hollow inside with two holes on one side. Can you identify it? I will upload pics. Can you give me any idea of the price these items would go for?
Not a problem!
Thanks, Chris! I'm back now.The Southern Cross of Honor was a medal awarded to Confederate Civil War veterans. It was conceived and designed by two lies, Mrs. Alexander Erwin, and Mrs. Sarah Gabbett. They got a copyright on February, 1900 and Ms. Erwin's husband was the first recipient in April, 1900.If you are planning to sell this, an appropriate price would be approximately $250.The second item is a button hook, used to lace up high button shoes and boots. It is an advertising piece for the JC Jensen shoe company, who probably gave them out free with each purchase of a pair of shoes. It appears to be an alloy of base metals and should sell for $5 - $10.Your last piece is a mystery to me too! It appears to be a part of something, and the two holes are for attaching it where it belongs. It could be the tip of a drumstick or other instrument. In any case, I don't think it has any resale value, since it is not a complete object.I hope this answer has been helpful to you, Chris. My goal is to provide you with absolutely excellent service, so please be sure to let me know if you have any additional questions about these items or want to follow up if you haven't gotten the information you need.When you are satisfied with my answer I would appreciate your positive rating. That is the way I am paid for my work. There is no additional cost for this. A rating of one of the top 3 smiley faces (then clicking submit ) lets JustAnswer/Pearl know I did answer your question, then I am compensated for my time, at no additional cost to you.Your rating is important and should be based on my service. Please do not leave a "poor" rating because the value is lower than your expectations. I truly value your feedback. Come back soon and ask for me! Thanks for using Just Answer!

I agree that it would be great, but only if you could guarantee proper administration. With governing bodies, you'd end up with worthy contenders being denied title shots their whole career, and favoured fighters like Chavez Jr having the system rigged in their favour. With rotten organizing bodies, a one belt per division system might even be worse.
Obviously the sport would be a lot better off if you could have it run by an NFL or NBA type organization, but boxing is harder to organize than football or basketball. The outcome is subjective, for one, and you can't really set up leagues or championships in the same way.
Any governing body would have to have supreme power and it would have to be backed 100% by the government. Otherwise the promoters will end up back in charge.

Take The Packer's new poll on the prospects for a United Fresh/PMA merger.
DALLAS — The United Fresh Produce Association remains in serious merger discussions with the Produce Marketing Association.
But whether those discussions will cut short the term of incoming United Fresh chairman David Krause was not clear.
"Those discussions are continuing and you have my commitment to always place our members' needs first," Krause, president of Paramount Citrus, said during his address to the general session May 2.
John Keeling, president of the National Potato Council, Washington, D.C., and member of the United Fresh board of directors, wouldn't comment about rumors that the boards of the two groups have a plan that will be discussed in June.
"You can see clearly that people are trying to come up with a process for the two groups to be more effective serving the industry," Keeling said.
Steffanie Smith, immediate past chairwoman of United Fresh and chief executive officer of River Point Farms LLC, Hermiston, Ore., and Mike O'Brien, past chairman of PMA and vice president of produce for St. Louis- based Schnuck Markets Inc., lead a task force on the merger discussions.
Those discussions began last year when the two associations formed a joint task force to look at potential synergies of combining the groups.
In a May 2 statement, Smith and O'Brien said the boards are continuing discussions about the best way to serve members.
"No final decisions have been made and published reports implying otherwise are incorrect," according to the statement. "While we appreciate that there is interest in our discussions, we respectively request a chance to complete our work in confidence. We will report to and engage in dialogue with all our members as they have the final decision."

Rowland offers experience as resource for officials
Former Mesa County Commissioner Janet Rowland was brand new to the job when she was tasked with voting on whether hydraulic fracturing should be allowed in Palisade's watershed.
Without much prior knowledge of natural gas drilling, she faced a steep learning curve before she could make any kind of informed decision.
Rowland, who would serve eight years as commissioner until she was term-limited last year, considered these kinds of obstacles that all local government officials face while launching a new program called the Center for Local Government.
The organization, which works under the umbrella of the Redifer Institute at Colorado Mesa University, takes a multi-faceted approach in acting as a problem-solving resource for local governments.
"I had the idea based on my experience and how hard it is to sometimes find answers, how isolated you can feel with only three commissioners," Rowland said.
Rowland is the research coordinator for the group, working on contract for the university. The effort is funded by grants, scholarships and user fees.
Last week, the Center for Local Government hosted an energy symposium at CMU. The two-day event attracted government officials from across Colorado who represent residents on local, regional and statewide levels. Topics included a primer in natural gas extraction, the state's role in regulating oil and gas development and a hands-on demonstration of fracking equipment at Halliburton's offices.
"There is no opportunity for local and state elected officials to get this kind of education in a short period of time on relevant issues," said Susan Beckman, a former 12-year commissioner with Arapahoe County.
Beckman said she appreciated learning all about energy development in one setting, a resource that would have been priceless when she was new to being a county commissioner.
"If we could have come to a symposium like this, we would have been so far ahead," she said. "I think it should be mandatory. If elected officials are educated on issues, they make better decisions for the people."
Upcoming events with the Center for Local Government include webinars on how to apply Gov. John Hickenlooper's Governor's Blueprint plan to help cities nab economic development opportunities and creating economic development opportunities in cities of various sizes.
Other aims of the center are to provide problem-solving solutions for government officials through databases or to refer officials to experts who can answer questions. The group also can provide governments with technical assistance by analyzing business and economic impact assessments, tax and budget analysis and other kinds of evaluations.
For more information on the center, search for the Redifer Institute on CMU's website at http://www.coloradomesa.edu.

When my first credit card arrived in the mail I felt euphoric.
I was 19. I tore the envelope open, activated it, signed my name and drove straight to the shops.
My plan was to buy myself a treat. I was a credit card customer now, after all. I was a successful young woman with a full-time job and a credit card to prove it.
I bought myself some clothing, nothing too expensive. Then I wandered in the next shop and bough a top. On a roll now, I walked into the very next shop and bought some earrings (may as well buy an entire outfit).
I was up to my sixth shop in 30 minutes – slightly sweaty and dizzy with delight – when my credit card was declined. I was confused because I hadn't spent anywhere near my limit but a phone call to the bank revealed that my card had been flagged for 'an unusual level of use'. They thought it had been stolen and the thief was going on a shopping spree before I could cancel.
I had to confess that the person on the shopping spree was me.
I felt sick. It really jolted me out of my spending stupor, but it didn't stop me from going on a shopping spree again and I remained in credit card debt for over a decade.
According to the Consumer Action Law Centre Report (Banking on finding your weak spots by Deborah Gough in the Sun Herald), "revolvers" are the credit card users banks love most.
"Revolvers" always have an outstanding balance on their credit card that they never pay off, but they do pay something. These are the banks' most lucrative credit card customers.
My life as a "revolver" came to an end when I entered a committed relationship. All my financial misdeeds were laid bare. We wanted to buy a home together and my credit card debt was as shocking to him as it was surprising to me. I'd never added it all up before.
I was $23,000 in debt.
Funnily enough, my credit card use made me an attractive customer to our bank when it came to applying for a mortgage because despite the fact that I had this debt, I made regular payments. I had "demonstrated an ability to service debt".
Ten years later and I've grown up a lot. I now see credit cards for what they really are – redundant and expensive. With a credit card, my $60 handbag ended up costing me $74 dollars. A $20 cafe lunch ended up costing $34. It didn't make any sense! Who can justify having a credit card when we now have the option of debit credit cards? All the ease of a credit facility but it uses your own money. A $60 handbag costs $60. It's a no-brainer.
According to the report, banks target us when we are most vulnerable and most likely to agree to limit increases.
My first credit card had a $300 limit and easy to pay off entirely, making me a "transactor'. After less than a year I was offered an automatic increase to $1000 due to my excellent repayment record. All I had to do was NOT respond to the letter and the increase would go through. To reject the increase I would have to contact my bank.
It was almost Christmas and I knew I had extra shifts coming up at work. I upgraded everyone's presents and maxed it out. For the first time, I couldn't pay it off completely from one pay.
Welcome to the world of credit card debt, little girl.
It was hard to get out of credit card debt but I was sick of being held hostage by it. I worked out a strict budget which we stuck to religiously for two years and we paid them all off. We'll never have a traditional credit card again.
While following our super-strict budget as we struggled to pay off our credit card debt I became obsessed with a TV show called Til Debt Do Us Part hosted by an energetic financial planner called Gail Vaz-Oxlade. She'd come into a couple's life, discuss their irresponsible spending, destroy their cards in a blender or with a similar kitchen appliance and work with them to repay their debt.
The couples always struggled at first.
One couple were missing their credit cards so much that Gail organised a meeting with a few couples who had no debt outside of their mortgages. The couple in debt said one of their most recent purchases on credit was a new lounge. One of the debt-free couples asked why they didn't just save for it. The couple in debt answered that the wanted it straight away and they were hopeless at saving. One of the husbands commented that it was easy to save for a lounge when you had to sit on the floor and they should try it.
Having no credit card debt feels like a huge weight has been lifted.
When a young family member proudly announced that he had just received his first credit card I felt sick. It was like he was following a formula. Finish school – check. Get a job – check. Take out a car loan – check. Apply for a credit card – check. Accumulate debt – check.
A young friend of mine has two credit cards. She makes 'blind payments'. Too scared to open the statements she pays $200 on each card every time she is paid and continues to use them in complete ignorance of her financial position.
A credit card isn't free money. A credit card isn't worth the bonus points. A credit card is money you will owe. A credit card is money you don't have. And banks will do anything to get you to accumulate credit card debt.

Ford inadvertently leaks private information of Windsor employees, retirees
Ford inadvertently leaked private information of about 10,000 current and former employees in Windsor to an external website, Chris Taylor, CAW Local 200, said Monday.
"Someone (at Ford) made a mistake," Taylor said. Ford has sent letters advising affected individuals that their "name, address, phone number, date of birth and Ford seniority were included in a data upload to a file on an external information technology vendor website."
Kerri Stoakley, spokeswoman at Ford of Canada in Oakville, said "there is no evidence to suggest the information was misused. No personal banking, credit or any other financial based information was provided to the vendor."
After Ford became aware of the incident in late December, it "acted immediately and the data was removed from both the vendor website and server," said Stoakley. "We take this matter very seriously and letters are on their way to notify current and former hourly employees."
Stoakley could not say for how long the information was on the website, which was relatively obscure and "difficult to locate." However, that information was accessible to anyone who accessed the website, she added.
The letter includes a hotline for any individuals with questions or concerns, Stoakley said. "They can call the Ford labour relations office at 519-257-2056 if they have any questions and someone will get back to them as soon as possible."
As a "precautionary measure," Ford is referring individuals to agencies that provide credit checks, she added.
Ford is taking steps "to ensure this doesn't happen again," said Stoakley.

Wednesday, May 5, 1999 | 9:44 a.m.
More than 800 people responded to the National Italian American Foundation's invitation for the West Coast gala honoring state Sen. Bill Raggio, Senate majority leader. The native Nevadan, who has served in the Nevada Senate since 1973, was given the National Italian American Foundation Lifetime Achievement Award for Public Service. Held in the sumptuous new pavilion complex at the Rio hotel-casino, the dinner was chaired by past NIAF honoree Anthony Marnell, assisted by honorary co-chairs Gov. Kenny Guinn and Assemblyman Joe Dini, speaker of the House.
Opening with a lavish hosted reception, the evening was festive as guests including Assemblywoman Chris Giunchigliani, Gary Gray, Bruce and Marlene Francis, Chancellor and Mrs. Richard Jarvis, Mikey and Jim Bilbray, Cara Kelley, Bob Faiss, Jim Marsh with Roz Santangelo, Paula and Sue Lowden, Assistant District Attorney Charles Thompson, Milton Schwartz and Bob and Patricia Campbell, enjoyed the buffet of Italian appetizers and delectables while meeting and mingling with friends and associates. Moving in to dinner from this congenial hour were NIAF members and celebrity presenters, among them Ruth Buzzi, Dick Van Patten, Lou Ferringo, Robert Davi and Dennis Farina.
NIAF, through a generous matching funds program with our community's own Augustus Society, presented checks to Kelly Long, Joseph Sandino, Jamie Ware, Maria Endriga and Marina Chiarandini. Each of these young students qualified at the highest academic level for these funds and presented documentation showing financial need for their advanced studies. Present for the dinner and ceremonies honoring Sen. Raggio were Robyne Brooks and her husband, state Sen. Randolph Townsend, as well as Heidi and Alex Arden, Oscar and Carolyn Goodman, Rep. Jim Gibson, Sandy and Roger Peltyn, Assemblyman Morse Arberry, Ann Lynch, Dr. Richard and Susan Moore, Pete Elaides and newlyweds Emily and Dario Herrara. Presiding over the well-orchestrated event was Joseph Cerrell, president of the national organization, and Frank Guarini, foundation chairman.
Preview partyFlorida developer Donald Soffer and his partner and son, Jeffrey Soffer, opened the door to Las Vegas' elite during Turnberry Place's review party. Rain showers didn't dampen spirits in the least for arrivals at the exquisite sales pavilion, which includes a full-size luxury model and quite spacious entertainment areas.
It was a party for both locals and those seeking to make their home in our community, with more than a liberal sprinkling of prominent Las Vegans, among them Vivienne Morris and Joan Bodensteiner, Dr. Martin and Phyllis Schwartz, Wayne Larson, Frank Schreck, Steve Molasky and Lisa Livingstone, Councilman Michael McDonald with Jennifer Simich and Joe Roberts. An elaborate model of the four-tower complex was displayed on the lower tier of the handsome building and viewed while George Bugatti and his orchestra entertained. Looking closely into this private-club living environment were Midge Rubinson with Pat Campbell, Gary and Pat Bircker, Laura Fritz, Rayna Peterson, Melanie Scott, Joe Klein and Jeff Silver, as well a Ivan Isenberg, Randall Goldberg and Jeannette Daley.
Faculty honoredThe UNLV Alumni Association recently served more than 70 guests attending its annual Emeritus Faculty Breakfast. Acting host for the early morning gathering was Alumni Association first Vice President Jim Kirkwood. Begun in 1991, the breakfast honors faculty who have served UNLV with great dedication for many years.
Emeritus status is bestowed upon those full time faculty members who retire after distinquished careers of 10 years or more. Candidates must be formally recommended by their department, college dean and finally the university's provost, who forwards the recommendation to the university president for approval by the Board of Regents.
Sixteen longtime pillars of UNLV's academic life were elevated to Emeritus status at the breakfast, including: Barbara Hanford, Jerome J. Vallen, William Wagonseller, Betty Yantis, Robert Bigler, William L. Brogan, Robert S. Ball and David W. Emerson. Recognized as well were Robert Davenport, Evan Blythin, James Kent Pinney, Anthony Saville, Gerald K. Rubin, Stephen F. Neilsen, Lee R. Tilman and, in memoriam, Thomas L. Clark. Present for the program and breakfast were Dr. Carol Harter and Provost Douglas Ferraro, Nancy Flagg, Dr. Stuart Mann, Dr. Rebecca Mills, Russell Avery, Fred Albrecht, Dr. Juanita Fain and Dr. Donald C. Moyer, past president of UNLV in the days when the university was known as Nevada Southern University.
Opening soireeThe splendid opening of the Venetian hotel-casino was generously designed as an event to benefit Reach Out, a community agency to assist children afflicted with AIDS and their families as they cope with their very special needs.
Guests, elegantly clad in complement with the exquisite resort property, stepped inside and were at once welcomed in grand fashion by a seemingly endless dual line of Venetian-style nobles, each wearing authentically researched costumes from the greatest era of the fabled city, and giving rich performances according to their elevated stations in life. Above were the soaring colonades of marble, and painstakingly created murals and frescoes, again recalling this magnificent city and the rich history that has been gracefully borrowed for the design and completion of the hotel and its adjoining casino, entertainment and restaurant areas.
Owner-entrepreneur Sheldon Adelson and his wife, Dr. Miriam Adelson, were soon surrounded by attending guests brimming with compliments and questions, among them Julie Simon with her mother and father, Leslie and Roger Simon, Gus Ramos, Flora Mason, Lia Roberts, Roger and Sandy Peltyn, Eva Kallick, Lou and Linda Silvestri, Robert Shay with his wife, Dr. Wendy Scheer, and Dr. Keith Bowman.
With many enticing areas of the resort to explore, the attending crowd soon spread out through the restaurants, elegantly tiered lounges and even into the beckoning jewelry store with its Venetian-influenced creations. Seen with friends were Paula and Dr. Joseph Quagliana, Joan and Robert Deiro, Stacey Donachesy, University Regent Tom Weisner and his wife, Lynn, Nancy Gasho with Alma Vining and Bob Stupak. Attending as a family were Yvette and Robert Maheu, with their son, Peter, and daughter-in-law, Rosemary, joined by longtime friends Robert and Vera Goulet. Looking with great interest through the resort's most appealing French bistro, Pino Brasserie, were Lovee and Bob Arum, who chatted with owner-chef Joachim Splichal about his menus for both lunch and dinner. Nearby in the relaxing crowd were: Steve Wolfson, Richard and Wendy Plaster, Irene and Dr. Ma rvin Perer, Hal Ober, Charles Silverman, Dr. Jim Nave and Don and Dr. Maria Chairez. Seen with Norm Johnson was Kim Armocida, while Larry Ruvo, Milton Schw
artz, Jan Johnson, and Christine Walker were part of the attending crowd. Present with fiancee Lisa Talley was Nevada Boxing Judge Chuck Giampa, who spoke of his forthcoming wedding slated for mid-October.

Star Bulk Proposes $75 million Backstopped Equity Rights Offering
Star Bulk Carriers Corp. announced that its Board of Directors approved a backstopped equity rights offering, which will allow the company to raise equity capital through the sale of its commonshares. The proceeds are expected to be primarily used for orders for fuel-efficient dry bulk vessels with some of the proceeds being reserved for working capital and general corporate purposes.
The company said it plans to raise gross proceeds of $75 million through a backstopped equity offering of 14,018,692 common shares only to holders of record of its common shares as of the close of business on May 15, 2013. In connection with this offering, the company will distribute, at no charge, to the record date holders one non-transferable subscription right to purchase the offered shares for each common share owned on the record date.
For each subscription right, a record date holder will be entitled to purchase 2.5957 common shares at a subscription price of $5.35 per share, which is referred to as the subscription privilege. The per share subscription price was determined by Star Bulk's board.
The offering is backstopped by investment funds managed by Oaktree Capital Management L.P. or its affiliates, a Los-Angeles-based investment firm with approximately $77.1 billion of assets under management as of December 31, 2012, investment funds managed by Monarch Alternative Capital LP, a New-York-based investment firm with approximately $5.5 billion of assets under management, Blue Shore Global Equity Fund L.P., Far View Partners L.P. and other third party investors and existing shareholders, including certain of our directors including Ms. Milena Pappas, and our executive officers, including our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer.

In consideration for providing its backstop commitment, the company has agreed to issue to each backstop investor that is not an affiliate of the company immediately prior to the completion of the rights offering a number of additional common shares equal to 3% of its backstop commitment . In addition, the company has guaranteed certain backstop investors minimum participation amounts which, depending on the participation level of the record date holders, could cause the amount of shares to be issued and the gross proceed s raised to exceed $75 million.
Evercore Partners is acting as financial advisor to the company, and Seward & Kissel LLP is acting as the company's legal advisor. Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP is acting as Oaktree's legal advisor, and Willkie Farr & Gallagher LLP is acting as Monarch's legal advisor.
The company has filed a registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) with respect to this rights offering. Subject to review of the registration statement by the SEC, the company intends to commence the rights offering during the second quarter of 2013. The subscription rights will expire worthless 20 business days after the commencement of the rights offering, unless the company extends the rights offering period or the rights offering is terminated.
A copy of the prospectus, the registration statement and additional materials related to the rights offering are expected to be mailed following the effectiveness of the registration statement to holders of the company's common shares as of the record date. Before you invest, you should read the prospectus and the registration statement, including all of the documents incorporated by reference therein and other documents the company has filed with the SEC for more complete information about the company and this offering.

Is there a thawing out between Sienna Miller and Jude Law? Though she hasn't been seen wearing her engagement ring, Miller has been out-and-about in London with her estranged fiancé.
The couple visited trendy Lebanese eatery Maroush in the city's Knightsbridge neighborhood recently. Law arrived first, followed by Miller a half-hour later. There was no PDA, but an onlooker reported that they seemed to be involved in a serious discussion.
Two days later, the pair visited Pugs & Kisses, on posh New King's Road. The store sells gourmet pet food, designer dog and cat clothes and other accessories, and its soon-to-be-opened spa will offer facials, exfoliating treatments and pedicures – for the dogs, of course. Law and Miller – who have two pooches, Porgy & Bess – were very low-key as they browsed for collars but didn't buy anything.
"There was no touching," a source says. "There was some laughing. They seemed happy enough." Stay tuned …
Touch of Evil
If you're used to seeing Wilmer Valderrama play goofy and lovable Fez on That '70s Show, you're about to see a much different side of the actor. Valderrama will play a "psychotic, kind of crazy guy who talks to birds" in an upcoming video for Rob Thomas's song "Ever the Same" (from his platinum-selling album Something to Be), the Grammy-winning singer told us at the recent Fashion Rocks event in New York City.
So, how did the pairing come about? "It was my wife's idea," says Thomas. "We met him and became friends with him and he's one of the nicest guys. He has such an interesting face. Mari was like, 'Maybe instead of being something funny and silly wouldn't it be cool if he was dark and spooky and scary.' He was too." The video will hit the small screen sometime in the next few months.
Caught in the Act
• Paris Hilton, hanging out with music producer Scott Storch at the MAC Cosmetics party for Brazilian bikini designer Rosa Cha at New York City's Maritime Hotel.
• Jeremy Piven, having cocktails at Chicago's Bella Lounge. The Entourage star, sporting an untucked dress shirt and jeans, escorted a significantly taller woman with long brown hair to the bar. The following night, Piven and a group of 20 friends – including Access Hollywood host Billy Bush – commandeered the lounge's VIP room. "He's quite a character and loves to entertain," says a Bella staffer.

Data Points: Top games by rookie QBs in Week 1
Published: July 19th, 2011 | Tags: Data Points, Andy Dalton, Blaine Gabbert, Cam Newton, Christian Ponder, Colin Kaepernick, Jake Locker
With several teams seemingly uncertain about their status behind center and the fact that six quarterbacks were drafted in the first 36 picks in April — including four in the first round — we could be getting ready to see something in Week 1 that we've never seen before.
Dating back to the merger in 1970, 28 rookies have started at quarterback in their team's first game. That includes Rams QB Sam Bradford, the first overall pick in 2010, who lost at home to the Cardinals in his NFL debut. But over the last 40-plus seasons, no more than two rookie signal-callers have started in Week 1 in the same year. It happened most recently in 2008 (Matt Ryan and Joe Flacco) and 2009 (Matthew Stafford and Mark Sanchez).
It will also be interesting if either Andy Dalton (Bengals) or Colin Kaepernick (49ers), selected with back-to-back selections in the second round, get the nod for their respective teams on September 11. The last time a rookie quarterback who wasn't a first-round pick started for his team in the opener was 2005, when Kyle Orton did it for the Bears.
While these quarterbacks are a combined 11-17 in their first start, nearly half of those wins (five) have come in the last 10 seasons. Here's a look at the top passer ratings by a rookie quarterback in his team's first game since 1970.

TAMPA — For the first three innings of Thursday's Class 6A region quarterfinal, Jefferson looked very much like a district champion while Osceola looked like a flustered team whose bus was an hour late.
By the end of the fourth inning, things changed dramatically. The Warriors scored five unearned runs in the fourth to erase a two-run deficit. It was the clear turning point in their 7-3 win, which sends Osceola to Tuesday's semifinal against King.
"We started a little slowly but the second time around we settled down and started to play some good baseball," Osceola coach Stefan Futch said. "We were hoping to get a spark somewhere and we finally got it."
The game started an hour late because there was no bus scheduled to pick up Osceola. The Warriors looked a little rusty in the first inning.
Starter Keith Weisenberg gave up consecutive hits to leadoff hitter Jose Cuellar and Trey Robinson. A wild pitch put runners on second and third, and Nelson Maldonado followed with a groundout to first that scored Cuellar.
Weisenberg, who struggled with control early, threw a wild pitch that bounced away from catcher Mike Kleinman and allowed Robinson to score and put the Warriors in a quick 2-0 hole.
Trailing 3-1 in the fourth, Johnathon Diaz struck out the first two Osceola batters. It looked as if he would retire the side in order when Buddy Dougherty hit a high fly to shortstop. But Cuellar dropped the ball.
Jake Rek walked and Joey Coca singled home a run to make it 3-2. Diaz then balked home a run to tie the score at 3. He was relieved by Jordan Norman, who didn't have much luck either.
Abiezer Jimenez singled home Coca to make it 4-3. Jaret Helinger tripled to left for another run, and Helinger scored on an RBI double by Kleinman. Six straight Osceola batters reached base with two outs before Jefferson ended the inning.
"(Cuellar) makes that play 99 out of 100 times," Jefferson coach Pop Cuesta said. "Then they get a walk and then a hit and then a balk and then a hit. Hey, that's baseball."
Osceola tacked on a run in the sixth when Rek scored on a throwing error to first base. Of Osceola's seven runs, only one was earned.
Jefferson had a chance in the sixth inning when it loaded the bases with two outs. But Daniel Almonte flew out to deep centerfield to end the threat.
Weisenberg pitched seven innings and struck out 10, including the final three batters he faced. But he did walk six, threw three wild pitches and had two errant pickoff attempts.

Kevin Costner Hopes to Make Music Documentary
Kevin Costner is best known as a movie star, but the actor is planning a new film project with a different focus.
Many fans of Costner's films may not know that he is also a musician, but the 'Draft Day' star has his sights set on making a movie about his band, Kevin Costner & Modern West.
"It's kind of almost a documentary," he says [quote via the Tennessean]. "We didn't have a plan for the music, and we've really gone around the world playing. I've been in Brazil. Who would have thought that when I said I'd like to play wherever I'm making a movie?"
Costner says that he started filming when the band first got together nine years ago, and he now has plenty of footage and around 60 songs that he's written with his band mates.
"It might be interesting for people," he says. "It might not, I don't know. But to see what it's like to start a band … some people might say, 'You're famous. It's easy.' And I might say, 'No, wait a second. It's not that easy.'"
Costner is waiting to see the level of interest from television networks before deciding on the fate of the project, which may be called 'Where the Music Takes You.'
"The people I make music with are also the people I go on vacation with," he says. "We have a friendship. It doesn't feel like work to me. Some people get it and some people don't. I don't have to prove anything to anybody but really myself."
The actor's latest film, 'Draft Day,' recently hit theaters. This year also marks the 25th anniversary of his iconic film 'Field of Dreams,' for which Costner will travel to Iowa to celebrate with the rest of the cast.

Has anyone had a rhinoplasty with Dr. Sorosky or Dr. Park? They worked together but now Dr. Sorosky has retired. He was the one that was known for doing excellent rhinoplasties. So my question is, has anyone had a rhinoplasty with just Dr. Park? I am considering it, so any feedback would be appreciated. :)

NewswireToday - /newswire/ -
Austin, TX, United States, 2009/06/08 - Sponsor of the 21st Century Nanotechnology Research and Development Act in 2002, Governor George Allen of Virginia is expanding his commitment to safe nanotech implementation as he joins the board of nanoToxs parent, Nano Risk Assessment, Inc.
nanoTox, the first company to provide complete risk assessment exclusively for nanoparticles, announced today that Governor George Allen of Virginia has joined the board of its parent company, Nano Risk Assessment, Inc. An early supporter of nanotechnology initiatives, Gov. Allen served the Commonwealth of Virginia for more than 20 years as Governor, as U.S. Senator and U.S. Representative, and as a delegate holding Thomas Jeffersons seat in the Virginia General Assembly.
Having a passion for the enormous benefits to be derived from advancements in nanotechnology, I am thrilled to join the outstanding, visionary nanoTox team of respected leaders in nanotechnology, science and business, said Gov. Allen. Nanotechnology will increasingly improve our lives with innovations in life sciences, materials, micro-electronics and energy. It is clear that the focused expertise of nanoTox will benefit enterprises working with nanoparticles by assessing risk and recommending safe management of their operations. As they innovate, improve and succeed, I foresee many responsible nanobusiness leaders desiring the services of nanoTox.
Elected to the United States Senate in 2000, George Allen has long advocated policies to make America a leader in innovation and technology. In 2001, he was appointed Chairman of the Senate High Tech Task Force and later in his term he created the Competitive Caucus to keep America the world capital of innovation. Allen was a member on the Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee, Small Business and Entrepreneurship Committee, the Energy and Natural Resources Committee as well as Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committees Subcommittee on European Affairs.
In 2002, Senator Allen sponsored the 21st Century Nanotechnology Research and Development Act, implementing a National Nanotechnology Program to establish the goals, priorities, and metrics for evaluation of federal nanotechnology research and development, invest in federal nanotech research and development programs, and provide for interagency coordination of federal nanotechnology activities. Senator Allen also joined with Senator Ron Wyden (D-Oregon) to found and Co-Chair the Nanotech Caucus.
In addition to Gov. Allen, the prestigious leaders joining the nanoTox Board of Directors includes former Rice University president Dr. Malcolm Gillis and founder and CEO of private equity firm La Jolla Capital Partners C. Richard Piazza.
Gov. Allen is one of the foremost supporters of safe nanotechnology development, said Harry Bushong, nanoTox president. Not only did he recognize the importance developing strategies to ensure the responsible growth of this technology platform, he helped make it a national priority before most even knew what nanotechnology was.
In gaining the guidance and experience of Gov. Allen, Dr. Gillis and Mr. Piazza, nanoTox is well positioned to provide the nanotechnology community with the most valuable expertise available for the safest development of nanomaterials for the commercial market.
About nanoTox

Because nanoTox uses methodologies that are performed under recognized international data quality standards (GLP, ISO, etc.) in its laboratories, the results and associated assessments are suitable for use to support regulatory decisions, product registrations, litigation and for acceptance by the insurance industry.
nanoTox ensures complete client confidentiality for all of its clients, which include companies or entities that require government approval to market their nanoproducts, venture capital firms that invest in nanoproduct companies, law firms engaged by such companies and insurance companies considering insuring such companies from liability.

The Rangers are favored to win the World Series and that's fine with the Giants, along with other news and notes from around the major leagues.
The Giants have seemingly been fighting an uphill battle forever. They were six games out of first place on August 28 in the National League West before chasing down the Padres for the division title. They were then underdogs in the National League Championship Series but upset the Phillies in six games.

OK, as an A's fan I now have to swallow the same advice I've been offering to grieving White Sox fans for the last couple of days: this year is just the first of many steps in what ought to be a great decade for both teams, and whatever gets accomplished, it will be valuable experience. As much as "wait til next year" smacks of Cubbish hopelessness, in the case of two well-run organizations, it is a motto of hope and not despair. I can gnash my teeth about sun fields produced by media moguls, but the Yankees won, and that's life.

The average family with two school-aged children will get payments in the budget that, with promised tax cuts, will put them about $1200 ahead, even accounting for the carbon tax.
Families are emerging as the key beneficiary of the government's "traditional Labor" budget with money for school-aged children plus compensation for the carbon tax.
Around six in 10 taxpayers will get a tax cut of at least $300. The government has decided on a lift in the tax-free threshold from $6000 to $18,200.
The tax cut is over $500 for those earning $20,000 to $25,000, and $303 for those paid between $30,000 and $65,000, before fading out to $3 for those on incomes of $80,000.
The government will make payments to families with school-aged children: $820 for every high school student and $410 for every primary school student for families eligible for Family Tax Benefit part A.
Analysis by The Australian Financial Review suggests a family with one child in primary school and one in high school, with both parents earning average weekly earnings, would be eligible for the Schoolkids Bonus and the tax cuts.
The hypothetical family earns $107,000 a year. Since last year's budget it will have gained $1836, including $606 in tax cuts plus $1230 in the Schoolkids Bonus. The family will have to cover an estimated $660 bill from the carbon tax, based on the government estimator. The average cost of the carbon tax is $515.
Part-time house-painter Denis Bainbridge has two primary school children and says his budget is "as tight as it's ever been". He is supporting his wife who is studying full-time.
He says the money would go on school excursions and after-school care. "Shoes are a big one. They wear them out pretty fast," he said.
Further tax cuts will be delivered three years later, in 2015-16, that will be worth an additional $83 a year for those on incomes up to $65,000 and $134 for those earning more than $80,000 a year.
Prime Minister
The bonus will be means-tested, being available only to recipients of Family Tax Benefit part A. The Family Tax Benefit is available at the maximum rate for families with incomes under $46,355 and at a decreasing rate to families with one child under 18 whose income is under $101,000 per year, or income under $124,000 a year if they have three children.
The Schoolkids Bonus replaces the Education Tax Refund which was accessed by about 300,000 parents. The bonus will go to 1.3 million families, representing 2.2 million students.

Take athletic events to the next level with state-of-the-art digital signage
Whether your athletic program is big or small, success depends on building engagement and loyalty among fans. Sony's new ZIRIS digital signage solutions can boost your spectator experience significantly, as shown by the Miami Heat, which is using the system to excite fans the moment they enter American Airlines Arena. ZIRIS can create visually engaging video walls, open new sponsorship opportunities, simplify delivery of content through web-based controls, and increase revenue through the dynamic presentation of display advertising and concession information.
|Ed Fliomia, Senior Director, Broadcast Services; The HEAT Group
About a year ago, we were in the midst of upgrading our facility from standard definition to high definition. The mandate was how do we make money with upgrading to high definition?
That's a very big task and hard to do. My initial response to that question was how did we make money moving from analog phones to digital phones. The answer was we didn't. It was just a way of doing business.
We're in the process of changing out all our displays, such as the old CRT displays we had with Sony that lasted 11 years. We still wanted to create ways to generate some revenue.
The way to do that was to create dynamic signage - signage that we could change whenever we wanted to. ZIRIS was introduced to us as a viable option. We did our research. We knew we wanted to do display advertising and we knew we wanted to do digital menu boards and directional signage. We decided to take that leap of faith and go with ZIRIS.
Our arena, which is in downtown Miami, is home to the Miami Heat. We host about 130 to 140 events a year. We added the Miami Media Mesh (a huge, dynamic electronic billboard) on the front of the arena and we needed something that could control that system and every display in the arena that we were going to add.
There are really two different kinds of signage. You've got a dynamic video wall, which is really for more of a creative splash, something that really wows you. It allows the content to be displayed not just across one sign but across all the signage. That signage is really designed for one sponsor and is managed by ZIRIS Canvas.
The other signage is managed by ZIRIS Professional. It's just signage that tells people where the restrooms are, where the different sections are, and it can also accommodate display advertising. You have different demographics in your building. There are cheaper seats in the 300 level, for example, and then you have your premium areas. The advertising is targeted to those different demographics. Also, at each concession, instead of having static cardboard displays, we have these really nice Sony high-def displays promoting the product. The food and beverage manager can type up his own content.
All of this basically puts a fresh picture in our arena, changing the experience based on the event. If we've got a Heat game, all of this signage has a Heat flavor. If we have the circus in town, it has more of a family flavor. It changes the experience on a nightly basis, which has a value to the arena and our guest services. And it creates revenue: it allows us to basically cater to the promoter. After a year of operation, we're happy to report that food sales went up a good 13 to 14 percent. They're attributing that to the dynamic signage.
|Shari Sentolowitz, National Manager for Education and Government Marketing; Sony Electronics
ZIRIS can be used in a variety of ways, from digital ads to poster replacement. This also relates to college campuses. Advertisers benefit from the ability to update ads more frequently. Viewers can see a sequence of images instead of a static sign. With digital signage, you can guide people on the fly to create better traffic flow. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner menus can be shown at the appropriate time. It's ideal for bringing information to mass audiences.
Where can ZIRIS be used on campus? One use of digital signage at the stadium is a virtual hall of fame. You can also place television images into part of the signage - this is perfect where you have queues and want to place branded information. It can also be used for directory information and emergency notification that can go throughout the campus. It's an end-to-end solution. Everything works together - the screens, the hardware, the software.
ZIRIS Create is the hub of the ZIRIS creative suite. It allows the user to assemble all the elements of the digital signage they want to create. It really is very simply to use. There's advanced content management. It has a very easy, streamlined ability to create playlists. It's a drag-and-drop, very intuitive interface. Another module, ZIRIS Manage, talks directly to each of the hardware devices. It gives you a real-time overview of what's going on. If an error occurs, it lets you know. You always know exactly what's played and where. And because it's browser-based, you can access it from anywhere.
With ZIRIS Canvas, your video walls don't have to be square. Video can be captured in any size, shape or orientation. You don't have to worry about the image being degraded or slowed down, and you can add sound. It's really no different from creating content for a single screen. Sony provides templates for layouts, but you have the power to create your own.

Meh. This tea is too harsh. The black tea is overly astringent, and the lemon has an unpleasant bite to it. I added some sugar and that helped a little, but it's still making my jaw clinch every now and then.
Oh well, I guess you can't win them all. Maybe I'll try cold brewing the rest of my sample.

Spurs fans to contest action on 'Y word'
The Tottenham Hotspur Supporters' Trust is to seek legal advice regarding the Football Association's warning that the use of the term "Yid" could result in criminal charges.
Some Tottenham fans have adopted the "Y word" for the chant "Yid Army" as a reference to the club's Jewish roots, and the FA has acknowledged they use the term as a "badge of honour".
However, the FA has said the term is "derogatory and offensive", with opposition supporters having used it as a way of directing anti-Semitic abuse towards Spurs fans.
And the governing body has said that any supporter heard using the term could face prosecution, as it continues its fight against discrimination in the English game.
"The FA considers that the use of the term 'Yid' is likely to be considered offensive by the reasonable observer and considers the term to be inappropriate in a football setting," an FA statement read.
"Use of the term in a public setting could amount to a criminal offence, and leave those fans liable to prosecution and potentially a lengthy Football Banning Order."
But a statement from the Tottenham Hotspur Supporters' Trust read: "Whilst we fully recognise that Spurs fans' use of the 'Y word' and associated identity may have caused some upset to members of the Jewish community, we sincerely believe that no Spurs fan uses the term in a malicious way.
"THST believes that rather than focus on Tottenham Hotspur fans using the term, more work needs to be done to educate supporters of other clubs as to why it is completely unacceptable for them to continue to sing songs and chants that do not focus solely on Spurs fans but slur the Jewish community as a whole."
It continued: "THST is categorically against ejections and banning orders for the use of the term by Tottenham Hotspur supporters in a match environment and will be seeking advice from both the Football Supporters' Federation and the legal profession as to whether there is scope for such measures under current legislation.
"Our view has always been that should Spurs fans use of the 'Yid' identity come to an end, this should be as a result of the feeling amongst the Spurs community that it was time to naturally move on.
West Ham's match at White Hart Lane in November last year was marred by anti-Semitic chants, although no action was taken by the FA following an investigation in March.
In 2011, Kick It Out released a video featuring the likes of Tottenham's Ledley King and Chelsea's Frank Lampard that looked to educate fans about the use of the "Y word".

What is ethical in this world? Does it mean what one beleives as right or what others beleive to be so?
The right things in one place differ from the right things in other places? How do then we find out what is ultimately right ? Like in my country it is generally beleived that we should have sex with our partner only when we have married and not earlier, where as there are no such taboos in other places. Which beleif is ethical and right I would like to have opinion about this and whether it is ethical?

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) - A museum dedicated to telling the story of Irish-Americans in the United States is moving from its longtime home to a new location in downtown Albany.
Officials from the Irish American Heritage Museum are holding a news conference at 11 a.m. Monday to announce the museum's move from East Durham, in the northern Catskills 25 miles southwest of Albany.
The museum opened 25 years ago in the Greene County hamlet known as the "Irish Alps" for its cluster of Irish pubs and shops. The museum has been operated as a summer-only attraction, but museum officials say it will be open year-round at its new location in a downtown Albany building.
Officials hope the move to a busy section of the state's capital will stem a steady decline in attendance at the museum.
