BASKETBALL FANS won't want to miss the "Killer Crossover Streetball Classic," which brings the action and showmanship of New York's famed Rucker Park to the Blaisdell Arena.

Doors open at 5 p.m. Sunday, with Champion's Legends taking on the Hawaii All-Star Street Ballers at 6 p.m. Promoter Hot Lava Entertainment also plans to give away the keys to a brand new 2006 Hummer H3 at some point during the evening. Tickets start at $17.50 ...

AFTER FORMER host Dita Holifield decided to focus on her music career, local television show "Entertaining in Paradise" has a new leading lady for its upcoming fall season.

Former television news reporter Malia Mattoch-McManus is back in front of the camera, with Michael Miyasato stepping into the role of floral consultant on the program. Spunky T.C. Chun returns to round out the cast, providing helpful craft ideas that will take your next house party to another level.
