On Saturday night, she emerged from Suite 21 at the Spectrum Center beaming after spending the evening with family and watching sons Stephen and Seth and husband Dell participate in the NBA All-Star 3-point contest.“It’s been everything that I hoped it would be,” she said of her sons’ return to their hometown for All-Star weekend. “Seeing Dell out there on the court being able to share that moment with the boys was awesome. And having the family all here to watch — that’s hard to beat.”FEATURED STORIESSPORTSGolden State Warriors sign Lee to multiyear contract, bring back ChrissSPORTSCoronation night?SPORTSThirdy Ravena gets offers from Asia, Australian ball clubsWith remnants of half-eaten appetizers and drinks still sitting on the counter, some of the young ones were starting to fuss having grown restless after being up well past their bedtimes.Still, Sonya didn’t want the night to end. Ginebra beats Meralco again to capture PBA Governors’ Cup title Nadine Lustre’s phone stolen in Brazil Seth fulfilled a lifelong dream of participating in his first All-Star 3-point contest and his girlfriend Callie Rivers, son of NBA coach Doc Rivers, has been wearing a large diamond ring on her left hand — though Seth has declined to publicly comment on their reported engagement.Stephen got to cross off a bucket list item when he leaped into the student section at his alma mater Davidson College Friday night after the Wildcats rallied to beat St. Joseph’s. He posed for pictures with Davidson students who were wearing only Speedos and smiles, saying “I didn’t get to do that when I was playing there, so I wanted to get that experience.”Dell was honored at the NBA Legends brunch Sunday after spending 16 seasons in the league and retiring as the Hornets all-time leading scorer, a mark that has since been broken by All-Star Kemba Walker.And Sonya, well she made the biggest shot of the weekend, draining an underhand toss from half-court on Friday — and then launched into a wild celebration — after beating her three children’s teams at a Charlotte community center that the Curry family helped to refurbish.“A perfect ending to that event,” Stephen later said.And while Stephen may not have gotten the “fairytale ending” he wanted after finishing second to Joe Harris in the 3-point contest, he did beat younger brother Seth to win a friendly wager .Sonya said she wanted Seth to win in his first ever appearance as an NBA player in Charlotte, but joked the family tried to “keep it on the DL.”It really didn’t matter in the end.This weekend was about making family memories.“It’s rare that we all get in the same place at the same time,” said Seth, “but to have my dad recognized by the NBA in a city where he played for the Hornets and where us kids grew up in is pretty special.

I can’t explain how happy and proud we are to be able to be on the court with them.”Dell said what he may remember the most about the weekend is seeing the family together.“We don’t get to see our grandkids enough,” he said after walking out of Suite 21 on Saturday night. “So to be able to spend some time with them is great. It’s late. It’s past their bedtime.But mom and dad let them stay up a little bit longer — because it was a special night.And a special weekend.

Also, home loan standards have tightened and the exotic financing options are not being used very much. DataQuick also doesn’t not believe that the subprime meltdown will roil Southern California’s market. “Perception has outstripped reality on that,” said DataQuick analyst John Karevoll. “The loans at risk are a subcategory of a subcategory and a small percentage of those are going to go into default. It’s a problem, but not as big an issue as it’s made out to be.” The report also showed that: In Los Angeles County, the median price increased an annual 6.3 percent to a record $540,000, while sales fell 22.7 percent to 8,353 transactions. In Ventura County, the median fell 6.9 percent to $566,750 and sales fell 24.7 percent to 999 transactions. In San Bernardino County, sales fell 46.6 percent to 2,476 transactions, and the median price rose 1.1 percent to $369,000. In Riverside County, sales plunged 47.3 percent to 3,680 transactions, and the median increased 0.2 percent to $420,000. In Orange County the median gained 0.6 percent to $629,000, and sales fell 25.5 percent 3,130 transactions. Another factor in the sales slide is that easy credit and exotic loan products drew people into the market over the last two years who normally would be shopping now, DataQuick said. That explains why the declining sales are not putting more downward pressure on prices. “You need more downward pressure on prices to push them down than you need upward pressure to push them up,” Karevoll said. In March, Southern California buyers took on a monthly mortgage payment that averaged $2,326, up from $2,303 the previous month and up from $2,297 a year ago. Adjusted for inflation, current payments are 8.9 percent above typical payments in the spring of 1989, the peak of the prior real estate cycle. And they are 4.5 percent below the current cycle’s peak last June. Indicators of market distress are also moving in different directions. Financing with adjustable-rate mortgages is declining significantly while foreclosure activity is rising but is still within the normal range. Down-payment sizes are stable and flipping rates and nonowner occupied buying activity is down, DataQuick reported. Eduardo Martinez, an economist at the Los Angeles County Economic Development Corp., notes that prices have held up well during the sales slide. For example, he said, that California Association of Realtors records show a year-over-year increase in the state’s median price every month going back to April of 1997. That’s one reason for slowing sales. “The market has been adjusting ever since interest rates started creeping up and it got expensive for people to borrow,” Martinez said. greg.wilcox@dailynews.com (818) 713-3743160Want local news?Sign up for the Localist and stay informed Something went wrong. Please try again.subscribeCongratulations! You’re all set! Southern California’s residential real estate market continued its wayward course in March with the median price reaching another record while sales declined to a 10-year low for that month, a market tracker said Thursday. Last month the median price of a home in the six-county region rose an annual 4.6 percent to $505,000, said La Jolla-based DataQuick Information Systems. It’s the first time the median price moved above $500,000, and it was a $10,000 gain from the prior record of $495,000 in February. DataQuick’s report includes new and previously owned houses and condominiums. The rise in the median is in part because of a drop-off in sales of entry-level homes, the company said. The median fell in two markets, Ventura and San Diego counties. Meanwhile, sales plunged an annual 32.4 percent to 21,856 transactions across Los Angeles, Riverside, San Diego, Ventura, San Bernardino and Orange counties last month. Sales did increase 23.6 percent from February. The slowest March in DataQuick’s statistics, which go back to 1988, came in 1993 with 16,214 homes sold and the strongest was in 2004 with 37,030 sales. The March average is 26,033 sales. “The drop-off in entry-level sales is part of a normal real estate cycle. That category surged at a later point in time, and is declining at a later point in time,” Marshall Prentice, DataQuick’s president, said in a statement. The company thought this would happen four or five months ago. read more
Thousands of crestfallen fans walked away quickly after the final whistle sounded on a giant screen in the town of Waterloo, south of the Belgian capital Brussels.“We’re very disappointed,” 27-year-old Alice Cordier told AFP in Waterloo, where French emperor Napoleon was defeated by a mix of European forces in a huge battle in 1815.“It’s really too bad to lose to France, Belgium’s national bad luck,” she added. “But we are still proud to be Belgian.”Some echoed the love-hate relationship and inferiority complex many French-speaking Walons have with their bigger neighbour France.“We will hear it spoken about for one hundred years,” 26-year-old supporter Stephanie Smeets said. “The French will take the mickey out of us.”French speakers, who share a country with Dutch and German speakers, are particularly sensitive to what they see as France’s condescending attitude toward them.It’s only the second time in history that Belgium have reached the World Cup semi-finals, 32 years after Diego Maradona’s Argentina beat them at the same stage in Mexico in 1986 before going on to win the title.France won the World Cup in 1998 and are now in their third final.But Belgian Prime Minister Charles Michel was full of praise for the Red Devils.“Bravo @BelRedDevils for your performance and having thrilled us until the semi-final,” Michel tweeted.– ‘Harsh logic’ –For many observers, this generation of talented players including Eden Hazard, Kevin De Bruyne, Vincent Kompany and others had a real chance to come home victorious.“Regrets are eternal. It will not be our day of glory on this 10 July,” a presenter of Belgium’s French-language RTBF television station said after the final whistle.But he thanked the team.“Thanks for having allowed, thanks to football, to forget everything a bit and enjoy moments of pleasure.”Analysts have also praised the multicultural team, including those whose parents are Congolese and Moroccan immigrants, for helping to unite a country split by political tensions over the Dutch and French language.In Brussels, the national colours — black, yellow and red — were draped over cars, balconies and cafes that showed the match on television.In one cafe, Mathieu Geslan, a 32-year-old French baker who has lived in Brussels for nine years, wore Belgium’s red jersey to watch the match with his Belgian partner Aurore Szabo.“The French have won once the World Cup. So why not have the Belgians win this time?” he said at half-time when the score was still 0-0.After the match, there was plenty of analysis of what went wrong.“The Belgians did not manage the last half hour well,” 79-year-old Jean Dhave said in the Brussels suburb of Uccle.“We are sad but it is deserved,” said Dhave, a manager of a tennis club who organised a special evening for the match.He said that key men De Bruyne and Hazard were not on form.Belgian comedian Benoit Poelvoorde had predicted a 1-0 France victory in newspaper Le Soir.“I think our team will lose Tuesday evening because it has every chance of winning. That’s the harsh logic,” he said.0Shares0000(Visited 1 times, 1 visits today) 0Shares0000Belgian supporters react as they gather at a fan zone in Brussels on July 10, 2018, after defeat in the World Cup semi-final © AFP / Aris OikonomouBRUSSELS, Belgium, Jul 11 – Belgium’s defeat by France in their World Cup semi-final produced mixed feelings of sadness, gratitude and pride from fans at home on Tuesday, who bemoaned a missed opportunity for their “golden generation”.A second-half header from Samuel Umtiti in Saint Petersburg gave France a 1-0 win, earning them a place in Sunday’s final in Moscow against either England or Croatia. read more

Priebe recently recorded a personal best of 51.67 in the 400-meter hurdles at Musco Twilight, which won him the event. This time is the sixth fastest in school history and is the top mark in the Missouri Valley Conference. He is also set to compete in the 110-meter hurdles. Senior Reed Fischer (Minnetonka, Minn.) returns to the Blue Oval in hopes of breaking one of Drake’s oldest school records in the 5,000 meters Thursday evening at 9 p.m. Boyd Nansel set the current school record in 1978 with a time of 14:00.25. Last year, Fischer finished third in the 5,000 meters with a time of 14:00.28, just three one-hundredths shy of beating Nansel. But this year, Fischer is determined to break that record. “The goal is to get the win and then I think the school record will be a product of that,” Fischer said. “I don’t think it will be any slower than a 14-flat kind of race. The plan is to comfortably run under 14 minutes, get the school record and hopefully get a Relays flag.” Friday, April 28Women’s 100-Meter Hurdles, 9:32 a.m. — Mary YoungMen’s 110-Meter Hurdles, 9:45 a.m. — Dominic Lombardi, Hudson PriebeWomen’s 4×100 Meter Relay, 11:55 a.m.Men’s 4×100 Meter Relay, 12:05 p.m.Men’s Pole Vault, 12:30 p.m. — Erik OlsonWomen’s 400-Meter Hurdles, 1:05 p.m. — Victoria CoombeMen’s Triple Jump, 1:30 p.m. — Jonathon Osifuye-WhiteMen’s 100-Meter Dash, 1:39 p.m. — Caulin Graves, Demetrius SheltonMen’s 4×400 Meter Relay, 3:28 p.m.Men’s 4×200 Meter Relay, 6:50 p.m.Women’s 4×800 Meter Relay, 7:49 p.m. Thursday, April 27Women’s 10000-Meter Run, 7:30 p.m. — MyKaela Cole, Bailee CoferMen’s 10000-Meter Run, 8:10 p.m. — Kyle Cass, Kyle BrandtMen’s 5000-Meter Run, 9:05 p.m. — Reed Fischer Saturday, April 29Women’s Triple Jump, 9:30 a.m. — Taryn RolleMen’s 3000-Meter Steeplechase, 9:50 a.m. — Chris KaminskiMen’s High Jump, 10:00 a.m. — Forest MosesWomen’s 1600-Sprint Medley, 10:07 a.m.Men’s 1600-Sprint Medley, 10:27 a.m.Men’s Distance Medley, 12:30 p.m.Hammer Throw, 1:00 p.m. — Michael DolanWomen’s Distance Medley, 1:00 p.m.Men’s 400-Meter Hurdles, 1:13 p.m. — Bas Van Leersum, Hudson Priebe, Malik MetivierMen’s 1500-Meter Run, 3:06 p.m. — Joshua Yeager Print Friendly Version The Drake men’s and women’s track and field teams are set to compete at the 2017 Drake Relays presented by Hy-Vee this week, April 26-29, on their home track in front of nearly 40,000 total fans.

South Africans blow the vuvuzela tospur Bafana Bafana. Freddie Maake says he invented thevuvuzela. Even children can blow it. The most adored item among South Africanfootball fans. (Images: Bongani Nkosi)MEDIA CONTACTS• Local Organising CommitteeJermaine CraigMedia Manager+27 11 567 2010+27 83 201 0121RELATED ARTICLES• Bafana frenzy grips the nation• SA buzzing with World Cup spirit• Viva the vuvuzela orchestra! • The master of the makarapa• Colourful vuvuzelas – from kelpBongani NkosiSome find it quite annoying, and others even want it banned from stadiums, but South Africans love it dearly: it spurs the crowds on and is the very best local way to show support for Bafana Bafana.It’s called the vuvuzela, a long plastic trumpet that can make quite a racket – just ask the Japanese football squad about it. They complained it distracted them so much during the Confederations Cup here in 2009, that it should be banned.But Fifa refuses to outlaw this controversial noise-maker, saying it’s a vital part of South African football culture and has cleared it for entry into World Cup stadiums.Hate it or love it, this ear-splitting apparatus will be out in force during the upcoming matches – and will certainly be louder than ever when the local boys take to the pitch.The vuvuzela is no newcomer to the local football scene, though. For years it’s been used to spark the atmosphere, with fanatics blowing it with vigour for 90-plus minutes of the game and during post-match celebrations.Fifa has said it will only turn away vuvuzelas if they’re used to attack other fans in the stadiums, but that’s never been the case before. And considering that the trumpets are associated with joy and celebration, and are cherished by their owners, it’s not likely to happen in the next month either. The instrument’s place in the 2010 Fifa World Cup is guaranteed.“I’d to be the first man to be arrested if they say the vuvuzela is banned,” said Freddie “Saddam” Maake, a devoted Bafana and Kaizer Chiefs fan, who is largely recognised as the inventor.“If it was not allowed into the stadium, it would mean we’d not go inside. We would blow our vuvuzelas outside the stadium,” he said.“I said to the Japanese fans: in your country you have karate … the Brazilians have samba. Here we have the vuvuzela.”Heed the callThe trumpet has become such a phenomenon in the country, that it’s impossible to imagine an ardent local fan going to a stadium without it.David Mabu, a devoted Bafana supporter, believes it’s the bellowing sound of the vuvuzela that pushes the national team to perform at its best. “Our boys understand it very well, they respond to it.“Blowing vuvuzelas is our way of encouraging our boys,” said Mabu, who’s also an ardent Kaizer Chiefs man.Bafana coach Carlos Parreira has also come out in defence of the popular trumpet, calling it South Africa’s 12th player on the field.Mabu says the vuvuzela craze has grown to such an extent, that there’s now a family of related objects on the market: the kuduzela, sockzela, babazela, mamazela, vuthela and nyinyizela.All of these are modelled on the traditional plastic horn, but come in different sizes and designs. And they all make different sounds. “That’s how unique we South African fans are,” said Mabu.But what’s the vuvuzela’s origin?There are now more than 40 companies that produce vuvuzelas, according to Maake. And one of them has even trademarked the name.This has led to a raging dispute about its origins, but what is clear is that the vuvuzela came was introduced by vibrant local fanatics.Maake, who’s been a diehard fan for decades, claims he is the chief creator. It was back in the 1980s, he said, when he started using a similar-looking instrument, made from aluminium, to stir excitement at matches.Back then he was a Moroka Swallows fan – fresh from the Limpopo province – and he called his noise-maker a lemporo, a sePedi name.Maake has long been a trendsetter at local matches and it’s easy to spot him on the grandstand, always wearing eye-catching attire. His vuvuzela is attached to a cut-out of an animated Bafana fan figure sticking out his tongue, and is elaborately decorated. Alfred “The Magistrate” Baloyi, the man credited for inventing the makarapa, was the designer of the piece.It was in 1989 that Maake first presented the idea of a plastic vuvuzela to businessman Peter Rice. The trumpet’s name changed to boogie blast, as it gained popularity.I was the only one making noise with a horn-like object then, Maake said. “When I was the only person blowing the thing people thought I was crazy.”In 1999 the versatile Maake, who’s also a musician, released an album called Vuvuzela Cellular, which led to the trumpet’s current name.Maake’s concern today is that South Africans do not recognise him as the person who invented the popular item. “I know that I’m the founder of the vuvuzela,” he said.Mabu, who’s been attending Bafana and Kaizer Chiefs matches religiously for the past five years, gives credit to Maake as the main man behind the vuvuzela. “The first person I saw having a vuvuzela was him, to be honest,” he said.Other companies are now able to mass-produce it because Maake never patented the design, but the musician says he is pleased that his alleged invention has become a national asset – not least in his own home, where he has about 300 different models.“When I’m in a stadium seeing 80 000 people blowing vuvuzelas that makes me happy,” he said. Today everyone is blowing a vuvuzela, even three-year-olds. It’s free entertainment for South Africans.” read more
