| Fire at PCA
A major fire broke out at the Punjab Cricket Association (PCA) stadium here this afternoon completely gutting its top floor and damaging property worth crores. There was, however, no loss of life. The fire broke out at around 1 oclock and was apparently caused by a stray spark flying off the welding equipment in use during an ongoing renovation work on the floor. It spread across 11,000 sq ft within minutes fanned by the wind and the highly inflammable material lying on the floor and lining the walls and false ceiling.

Ray Allen was on that Western Conference team that beat up on the East in Las Vegas. Traded to the Boston Celtics last summer, he helped his new All-Star teammates atone. His three 3-pointers in the final three minutes and 12 seconds kept the East ahead after a West rally had wiped out a double- digit lead. "Ray hit some big shots," James said, "some of the biggest shots of the game, and he kept it flowing. We put the finishing touches on it, and it was a dunk." It was a monster dunk authored by James that truly finished things. He powered the ball through and over Dallas Mavericks 7-footer Dirk Nowitzki with 55.5 seconds remaining.

The season traditionally begins during Presidents' Week, says Judi Desiderio, president and chief executive of Town & Country Real Estate, whose main office is in East Hampton.
"By the end of that week, 50 percent of the summer rentals are gone." This year, the season took off at least a month earlier, she says.
