LONDON — Blackstone Group L.P. and PAI Partners, the private-equity owners of United Biscuits, have appointed Credit Suisse to separate the food company's salty snack business from its other operations, according to an article in The Wall Street Journal.
Blackstone Group L.P. and PAI Partners tried unsuccessfully in 2010 to sell all of United Biscuits, but they came up short when a rumored deal with China's Bright Food Group P.L.C. fell through.
United Biscuits' snack business has about a dozen brands, including McCoy's potato chips, Hula Hoops, Mini Cheddars and KP nuts. The rest of the business, which accounts for about two-thirds of United Biscuits' sales, includes biscuits and cakes.
Blackstone Group and PAI Partners acquired United Biscuits in October 2006 for more than $3 billion.

Paris is Not Engaged
Paris and Nicky hosted the Give a Lift charity event in Miami to raise money for breast cancer over the weekend. Paris got people talking once again when she wore her big fake diamond to an event last week, and she wouldn't answer questions about whether she was engaged. Well, don't start sending your well-wishes yet. It turns out they aren't engaged and that Stavros' family thinks Paris is tacky. Page Six reports:
[C]lose friends say they're not engaged - and moreover, the shipping heir's parents have no intention of even meeting their son's sometime succubus. "They refused to meet her last year when Paris and Stavros had dated for a while," a source said. "Paris even followed him and his family to Hawaii, where they go every New Year's, and they still wouldn't meet her. They think she's tacky."
Paris is probably a parent's worst nightmare. But knowing her she'll find some way around Stavros' parents. And it will be sure to garner her a bunch of publicity as well. More pics of Paris, Nicky and greasy Brandon so just read more

Finley's Reid Crowe relishes Murray win
With help from Finley's Reid Crowe, Murray Football League was able to defeat interleague rivals Sunraysia at Mildura's City Oval on Saturday.May 28, 2014 3:38am

Finley's Reid Crowe helped Murray Football League turn the tide against interleague rivals Sunraysia with a gutsy 13-point win at Mildura's City Oval on Saturday.
Echuca United's Farran Priest led the way as Murray turned around a 100-point deficit suffered two years earlier, to prevail in a hard-fought slog, 13.8
The victory marked Scott Beattie's second win as interleague coach and a huge step forward in Murray's rise up the Country Championship rankings.
Murray moved to eighth position on the rankings and sit about two or three spots shy of Beattie's ultimate goal.
''After the last trip up here, that's when we identified that something had to be done,'' Beattie said post-match.
''Sure, we're two from two in the last two years, but we've turned around a 100-point deficit into a win.
''Saying that, we've now got guys who are committed to interleague footy, who understand the pride that goes into the jumper and who are playing for all the right reasons.
''Interleague is alive and well and back where it belongs.''
Beattie's charges started slowly, allowing Sunraysia to slam on three goals within the first 10 minutes of the opening term.
Murray had its fair share of possession, but poor disposal proved costly as chances went begging with only three behinds managed before Murray kicked its first goal.
It came through Numurkah's Brent Chapman, who started on the bench.
Chapman kicked truly from a set shot, then snapped well to convert a second as Murray started to wrestle the momentum away from Sunraysia.
Sunraysia's five-point lead at quarter-time quickly diminished as Murray's former AFL talent, Damien Cupido and Brad Dick, came to the fold.
On the wrong side of a few umpiring decisions in the opening term, Cupido found some clear space to kick his first while Dick made the most of three chances — one a dribbling goal from the boundary — to help Murray to a 17-point advantage at the main break.
Boasting superior run, spread and carry, Murray sustained the three-goal margin during the third term, with goals from Leon Johnson and Jackson Gash answering a goal from Sunraysia forward John Coleman (three goals).
Trailing by 17 points at three-quarter-time, Sunraysia lifted to be within eight points, courtesy of two consecutive goals from full-forward Troy Moncur.
Fourth on the Sunraysia Football League's goal-kicking tally, Moncur had been well held by Barooga's Matt Demaio since kicking the first of the game.
Moncur's three majors for the afternoon equalled Coleman's haul, but the duo's overall impact was limited, as was Sunraysia's own AFL talent in Shannon Motlop (two goals).
It was a different story at the other end with Dick's impact on the game proving telling.
The first and last goal of the quarter came from the silky forward's boot and ultimately sealed Sunraysia's fate.
Cupido was another key figure in Murray's forward half, kicking two goals, but was well below his imposing best and beaten by Sunraysia full-back Brendan Rhodes.
Beattie said Priest was Murray's workhorse while his midfield troupe of Crowe, Dean Moon, Barooga's Will Gorman and Bryn Barnes-Webb were sound in support.
Demaio, David Ismail, Dan Bowles, John Timeapatau and Murray skipper Ryan Prendergast controlled the backline and was one of the key reasons behind Murray's win.
For Sunraysia, captain Brad Hards was rewarded with a best-on medallion for a stellar performance through the middle. Luck Sicker, Simon Callahan, Jordan Bates and Jesse Vallance were also solid contributors.

China to hold frugal 60th anniversary parade
The China Daily newspaper said, citing a spokesman for the Defense Ministry, that the October 1 parade would be held in an "economical manner" as the government plans to spend only 300 million yuan ($44 million) on it.
"Chinese military forces have a tradition of fulfilling big causes by spending small amounts of money," Senior Colonel Chen Zhou, an expert with the People's Liberation Army's Military Science Academy, told the newspaper.
The parade, to be held on Beijing's Avenue of Heavenly Peace, will involve soldiers, tanks and missiles.
"We can see that the parade on National Day will be solemn and cost-effective," Chen told the newspaper.
Earlier media reports said some 16 billion yuan ($2.3 billion) could be spent on the parade to mark the 60th anniversary of the People's Republic of China. In a poll, some 85% of people asked as to whether the government should hold a grand and expensive parade answered positively.

Sandvik rolls out a two-for-one HSI crusher
Sandvik introduced a new line of horizontal shaft impactors, the Prisec. Led by the CI511 model, the units can be configured as either a primary or secondary crusher, offering optimal utilization of capital assets.
"One machine does it all," notes Rowan Dallimore, Sandvik's product line manager for impact crushers. "An operator could use it as a primary at one site, and later move it to another site to use as a secondary."
Developed in response to customer feedback, a unique patented design allows the operator to switch the unit from primary to secondary function within a few hours. Operators simply unbolt and pivot the shaft, which lowers the curtain by 180 percent and converts the unit from primary to secondary mode.
Two uniquely designed curtains replace the more traditional three-curtain configuration, reducing the need for maintenance parts and labor while improving reduction ratios. Both curtains are infinitely adjustable via a patented adjustment/braking system which is located on the cross beams of the crusher.
Hydraulic power isn't required during normal operation, yielding lower operating costs through reduced power consumption.
The rotor and hammers are said to be robust and efficient, with a unique "banana" shaped self-sharpening hammer designed to keep the contact heads sharper during operation, resulting in more effective shearing of the incoming material and improved production.

Pitching win for Echuca duo
Echuca Steve Boltz and Bianca Stapleton have won the regional Victoria Short and Sharp pitching competition.IVY WISE June 5, 2014 3:28am
Echuca couple Bianca Stapleton and Steve Boltz are on their way to a promising screenwriting career after winning the regional Short and Sharp pitching competition in Shepparton last Thursday.
The competition, organised by Open Channel
Miss Stapleton, 28, and Mr Boltz, 43, won with their submitted Swear Jar, an Aussie comedy/drama they hope to make into a feature film.
''It's about a once-proud farmer who accepts the help of a young publican and the hefty proceeds of her swear jar to avoid losing his family farm to council rezoning,'' said.
Mr Boltz, a creative writing tutor, and Miss Stapleton, who works as a community programs co-ordinator for Campaspe Shire, both enjoy writing and developed the story a couple of years ago while driving to Shepparton.
As part of their pitch, they had to provide a creative visions statement, synopsis and intended audience statement, as well as coming up with ideas on who could play the characters.
The judges included Open Channel executive director Marc Gracie, the head of Australian production at Village Roadshow Seph McKenna and Instinct Entertainment chief executive David Redman.
''Bianca and Steve's pitch has all the hallmarks of a great laconically funny Australian film, the sort of film that Australians love to see,'' Mr Gracie said.
''It has been a pleasure working with them so far and Open Channel looks forward to continuing to help develop the careers of this talented duo.''
The couple will develop their pitch for the October state final.
''We feel good about our idea, but there is work to be done,'' Miss Stapleton said.
''You can have a great idea, but if there's no movie there, it doesn't go through,'' Mr Boltz said.
The couple agreed winning the national final and having their film made was the goal.
''It would be a dream come true,'' Mr Boltz said.
''It would be vindication and validation,'' Miss Stapleton said.
''To be able to to point to something that big and say we did that would be an incredible thing.''

This year's poster features a shot of "a couple who embody the spirit of cinema like no other" — Joanne Woodward and Paul Newman. The real-life and on-screen couple were photographed on the set of 1963's A New Kind of Love. "It is a chance both to pay tribute to the memory of Paul Newman, who passed away in 2008, and to mark its undying admiration for Joanne Woodward, his wife and most favored co-star," Cannes officials told Deadline.

Ex-Army employee from Nazareth sentenced for taking kickbacks
A former Army employee from Northampton County has been sentenced to 13 years in prison for pocketing nearly $4 million in kickbacks, federal prosecutors announced.
John Alfy Salama Markus, of Nazareth, worked for the Army Corps of Engineers in Iraq.
According to authorities, he took bribes from two men who worked with companies seeking U.S. contracts in Iraq. In exchange, Salama Markus provided them with confidential bid and pricing information.
The companies were awarded more than $50 million in contracts.
Authorities said Salama Markus transferred the money from foreign banks to accounts in New Jersey and Pennsylvania.
Officials said he built a $1.1 million house in Pennsylvania with the money.
Salama Markus pleaded guilty to wire fraud, money laundering and failing to file a U.S. Treasury report.

With the the release of Hookworms' second album only a few weeks away, on November 10th – the group have decided to share their latest single. The track 'Off Screen' is a somewhat of a departure from the ferocious energy of The Hum, the sole break in pace among 35 blistering minutes, tidal in the way it rolls over on itself through more than seven emotively fragile minutes.

Getting older can be tough. Bodies ache, bones creak, and sometimes it's just plain hard to keep active. But one Duluth woman defies it all, celebrating 100 years while swinging for the green.
"I'm 100, I'm 100!" laughed Jan Petersen at her birthday party Thursday.
She sure doesn't act her age. She may be 100, but she's a real rebel.
"My kids have a fit when they see me out there with a rake, 'oh my, mother, you put that rake away.' Yah, yah, crazy kids!" said Petersen.
But more often than a rake, it's a golf club she has in her hands. Every Thursday, you can still find her at the Pike Lake Golf Course. She's made three hole-in-ones in her life, but these days she says it's just about getting out.
"At least I hit the ball!" she said with a laugh.
Celebrating her big day, she's surrounded by her fellow lady golfers. She calls them her 'kids.' They have a special name for her, too.
"We always call her 'Mrs. Pete' from the high school days. She was our advisor in Power Club," said Judy Morgan, a former student.
Mrs. Pete was born and still lives in Lakeside, but for nearly two decades she taught at Denfeld.
"I decided when I was in third grade that I wanted to be a phy. ed. teacher and I never changed. My mother and dad said I would be a wonderful nurse and I thought, 'ugh, I hate blood!'"said Petersen.
A handful of her former students tee off with Petersen every Thursday. They say she's the same 'Mrs. Pete'.
"She's always smiling, she greets everybody, she can remember their names and that sparkle in her eye," said Morgan.
Hearing her laugh as she tells stories from way back when, you can't help but ask 'Mrs. Pete' her secret. She says it's part genes, part attitude, but mostly staying on the move.
"Just keep active kids, keep active. Really, I think that's the main thing and just do what you're able to do," she said.
Duluth Man Pleads Guilty to Suffocation Death of 13-month-old Daughter
A 30-year-old Duluth man has pleaded guilty to second-degree murder in the suffocation death of his 13-month old daughter. The St. Louis County Attorney's office announced Christopher Dennis Peterson's plea in State District Court on Monday.
Authorities Investigating Possible Homicide on the Fond Du Lac Reservation
Authorities are investigating the death of a 31-year-old woman in Stoney Brook Township on the Fond Du Lac Reservation. The St. Louis County Sheriff's Office said Monday that they believe the death was an act of violence. One suspect has been taken into custody and authorities are asking for the public's help locating a woman who may have more information.
Proctor Police Searching for Suspect in Armed Robbery
The Proctor Police Department is asking for the public's help in their search for the suspect from an armed robbery Sunday night. They say the suspect robbed the Proctor Milk House at gunpoint at about 10:15 p.m.
Human Remains Near Pine City Likely Part of Historic Burial Site
Human remains uncovered at a construction site near Pine City last week are most likely connected to a historic burial site. The results of the investigation into the remains were released on Monday.
No Criminal Charges for Superior Officer in Controversial Arrest
Superior Police Chief Charles F. LaGesse announced Monday morning the Bayfield County District Attorney has issued his decision about the actions of Officer George Gothner during the arrest of Natasha Lancour.

Hariri: We'll stand with Hizbullah
saad hariri 311.
(photo credit:AP)
Following a series of bellicose Syria-Israel exchanges in the past week, Lebanon entered the fray Wednesday, with Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Hariri saying his government would support Hizbullah if a new confrontation breaks out with Israel."We hear a lot of Israeli threats day in and day out," Hariri said in an interview posted on the BBC's Web site Wednesday. "Every day we have Israeli warplanes entering Lebanese airspace. This is something that is escalating, and this is something that is really dangerous."Hariri said Lebanon would unite if there was a fresh conflict with Israel."I think they're [Israel] betting that there might be some division in Lebanon, if there is a war against us," Hariri said. "There won't be a division in Lebanon. We will stand against Israel. We will stand with our own people."Hariri's comments come in the context of improved relations between his Western-backed coalition and the Iranian-backed Hizbullah since the two sides were forced to coexist in a fragile national unity government formed in November. The cabinet includes two Hizbullah ministers.Israel, meanwhile, has been saying for months that as long as Hizbullah is in the Lebanese government, Jerusalem would hold Lebanon responsible for any Hizbullah attacks.Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's spokesman Mark Regev echoed these comments on Wednesday, saying Netanyahu has said "more than once that now that Hizbullah is part of the Lebanese government, and they have been given official backing as if it were the official army of the Lebanese state, in such a situation any attack via Hizbullah against Israel or Israelis will be seen as an attack as well by Lebanon."The significance of comments such as these is that Israel would view Lebanese infrastructure as fair game in the event of another war with Hizbullah, something that was not the case during the Second Lebanon War, when Israel did not attack strategic Lebanese infrastructure targets.Regev added that the Lebanese government has "unfortunately abrogated its responsibility regarding UN Security Council Resolution 1701, which clearly calls for the disarmament of Hizbullah and the preventing of arms transfers to Hizbullah. This is a black and white violation. I think this is crystal clear to members of the international community."Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman brushed aside Hariri's warning, telling Army Radio Wednesday that the Lebanese prime minister was "simply a hostage of Hizbullah, which has veto power in his Cabinet."Hariri's coalition narrowly defeated a Hizbullah-led coalition in parliamentary elections last year, enabling it to retain a slim majority in the 128-member legislature.Hariri, however, was unable to form a government without Hizbullah and its allies, fearing a repeat of the sectarian violence seen in 2008, when Hizbullah militants swept through Sunni neighborhoods of Beirut after the government moved to curb the group's military communications network.Hariri said Hizbullah would be included in the government whether Israel liked it or not. Like previous governments, the prime minister's government endorsed Hizbullah's right to keep its weapons and has been loath to take any strong action against the group for fear of sparking a crisis.Asked whether there might be a new war involving Lebanon and Syria, Lieberman said: "I very much hope not." "We have no interest in heating up the fronts with any of our neighbors. At the same time, we won't be a punching bag. And we won't shrug off vitriol that's directed at Israel," he said.Lebanon's president warned Israel Tuesday that a war against Lebanon would be "no picnic."Last week, Syria's Foreign Minister Wallid Muallem accused Israel of "spreading an atmosphere of war," and hinted that Syria would not sit to the side in the event of another Hizbullah-Israel confrontation."

VOICE NARRATOR: Things are easier to understand when we connect it all in the same picture. These symbols can be used to cover many stories about wild nature and human societies. But for the economic crisis we only need some of them, if we expand these with a few shades and flags. So we are keeping some of the top colors, and adding variations. Here are the originals, and here is what we will use now. Don't bother memorizing. It will be flexible. For example, basic red is for all of finance too, and people for households. We saw before that mortgage loans pumped up the business cycle of the whole country. Red arrows are always for money. I also used a "group" pattern, to show the shadow banks and the housing market. There were two bubbles at the same time, one in house prices and one in derivatives values. The pinwheels spun from a mutual attraction of loans and debts. Let's start with two of the pin heads, you and me. You want to buy the property. So you will pay me money and you will receive the deed. First you have to get the money: you borrow the money from a mortgage company, called an "originator", and buy the property. Now I have the money and you need other income to pay the mortgage. You usually pay it to a service company. These companies are intermediaries, a part of the financial system. You exit the housing market. This stands for the millions of people who are in the process of buying and selling properties. There are lots of people getting in and getting out. So, the new owners start to pay mortgages. But a batch of mortgage agreements are sold, for what is really a big pile of money, to a shadow bank. So then, the payments go there. What are shadow banks? They are investment banks and funds, and they are not regulated like the deposit banks, whose rates are controlled by the central bank. We will look at these connections in another video. But deregulation blurs the boundary and extends the taxpayers' responsibility to bail-out the shadow banks. The big disaster will depend upon the next steps. The mortgages are put into an off-balance-sheet company with no reserve requirements, called a "special purpose entity", and they write purple paper called mortgage derivatives and sell them for good, red money. Then the mortgage payments are split to the owners of these new securities. A derivative can always be resold for money. It is what you call "negotiable". So then the mortgage payments go there. The original deal is that all the derivatives get paid. But if enough money doesn't come in, because some homeowners can't pay their mortgages, then the bottom tranche doesn't get any money. So the top tranche gets a AAA rating and it is worth more because it always gets the mortgage payments. The money from selling these derivatives goes into salaries and bonuses at the investment bank and the rest goes to buy more mortgages to make more derivatives and sell them for more profits, and so on. Well, all the triple-A derivatives are good as gold to everybody. They use them in other kinds of trades, as collateral for loans. We will return to this shortly. Each level has many kinds of transactions inside. It is all a part of finance. These are different views of the same thing. Next, our story will continue from the little pile of money that was lent to you, to buy a property. Then we will watch the housing market blow a bubble.
