 I Read The News Today...Marvel Expands Its Universe With "Guardians Of The Galaxy"Wed, Jul 30, 2014 | Filed in: Film / Movie Reviews
Far from a well-known property, “Guardians” was conceived in 1969 by Arnold Drake and Gene Colan, though the comic has since been relaunched several times, most notably by Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning in 2008. Similar in tone to the universally acclaimed “Iron Man” franchise, “Guardians” sets itself apart from the onslaught of superhero films with the unique vision of its daring writer-director, James Gunn (“Slither,” “Super”), who jumped at the opportunity to tap into his inner child and essentially create an entire world from the ground up.

“After an extensive and thorough search, we’re proud to welcome Byron back to the Lakers family as our next head coach,” said Kupchak. “Byron has proven himself at the highest levels of the game as both a player and a coach in his almost 30 years of NBA experience. His leadership skills and track record for success make him the ideal person to lead this franchise forward.” “I am ecstatic to once again be a Laker and to have the opportunity to work alongside Mitch and the Buss family,” said Scott. “I know firsthand what it takes to bring a championship to this city, and as someone who both grew up in L.A. and played the majority of my career here, I know how passionate and dedicated our fans are. I will give everything I have to fulfill the championship expectations that our supporters have for us, and that we have for ourselves.” Read MoreDonald Sterling Loses Court Battle To Prevent Sale Of Los Angeles ClippersMon, Jul 28, 2014 | Filed in: Health/Sports Fitness
A judge gave Shelly Sterling a sweeping victory Monday afternoon and cleared the way for Steve Ballmer’s record $2-billion purchase of the Clippers to proceed. In a tentative oral decision, Judge Michael Levanas ruled in Sterling’s favor on all three counts and rejected virtually all of Donald Sterling’s arguments in the probate trial in Los Angeles Superior Court. The ruling included the extraordinary step of granting of Shelly Sterling’s request for an order under section 1310(b) of California’s probate code that allows the sale to be completed regardless of an appellate court’s intervention. “Ballmer paid an amazing price that cannot be explained by the market,” Levanas said. Levanas also ruled that Shelly Sterling acted properly when two doctors declared her husband mentally incapacitated in May under terms of the Sterling Family Trust before she proceeded to agree to sell the Clippers to Ballmer.
