FLORIDA FLIGHT ADD VETERAN GUARD MIKE DEAN 

(Orlando, FL) - The Florida Flight proudly announce the addition of veteran guard Mike Dean (6'2''-G-82, college: Middle 
Tenn.St.) to their 2011 player roster.

A Middle Tennessee State University alum, Dean has been playing professionally across the globe for the past seven years. From 
Poland, Germany, the Dominican Republic, Mexico, Venezuela, and several minor league circuits in the United States, including 
the Continental Basketball Association (CBA) and the NBA Developmental League, Dean has made an all-star impact at each stop 
along the way.

"Mike was a teammate of mine when we both played for the East Kentucky Miners of the CBA in 2007-2008," said Flight Owner 
and President Mark King. "He's a very hard worker, and will fit perfectly within the culture and chemistry of our basketball 
program."

Dean led the CBA in scoring with Rio Grande Valley Silverados before being traded to the East Kentucky Miners midway through
the 2007-2008 season. Upon his arrival in Pikeville, Kentucky, he was asked to share the scoring burden with NCAA National 
champion Josh Pace. On March 2, 2008, the Miners broke a 29-year CBA record for most points scored in a game by a team with 
a 194-115 win over the Atlanta Krunk. Dean led all scorers with 44 points that night.

Dean recently returned from playing in Venezuela after suffering a minor ankle injury. His ankle is again completely healthy, and 
he will join the Florida Flight for training camp in April.

"I just want to thank God for giving me so many opportunities to play basketball at this level,' said Dean. "I'm really looking 
forward to joining the Florida Flight and helping this team bring a championship to the Avalon Park area of Orlando, Florida this
season."

"Bringing in Dean is a big deal for us," said King. "We want to invest in our players, and put them in situations where they can 
share their talent and prove to other scouts that they are worthy of playing opportunities in the NBA and in various countries 
around the globe. Adding a player like Mike Dean further establishes our credibility as a professional basketball program."

This season, the Flight will keep a 10-man active roster, as well as an inactive developmental roster for players seeking to 
improve their game and jump to the next level. Training camp for the Flight starts April 20. The complete roster for the 2011 
Florida Flight will be released in the coming weeks.

The Florida Flight is a member team of the Continental Basketball League. The mission of the Florida Flight is to utilize the platform of 
professional basketball to invest in the lives of others. For more information, please visit

United Airlines (UAL.N) temporarily revived the flight numbers of two hijacked planes used in the September 11 attacks but said on Wednesday the move was inadvertent and they would not be used."We are taking immediate steps to remove them and apologize for the error," a United spokesman said.

Call numbers 93 and 175 were mistakenly assigned to two flights by Continental Airlines, which has merged with United.

United declined to explain how the numbers found their way back onto flights. Unionized flight attendants urged the company to permanently retire them, while pilots said the move was insensitive.

Flight 175, a Boeing 767, took off from Boston and was one of two planes flown into New York's World Trade Center.

Flight 93, a Boeing 757, took off from New Jersey's Newark International Airport and crashed into a Pennsylvania field. Investigators believed the hijackers of that plane wanted to hit the U.S. Capitol or the White House.

Two other planes used in the attack were flown by American Airlines. Flight 11, a 767 from Boston, hit the World Trade Center, and Flight 77 from Washington Dulles, crashed into the Pentagon.

AMR Corp (AMR.N), parent of American Airlines, long ago retired those two flight numbers.

Other airlines, however, continue to use all four of the numbers for their flights.

It does not follow that because we do not subsidize smoking, we should not regulate unhealthy activities. Costs and savings are not the only variable. The fact that obesity creates costs is merely an additional reason to regulate it, not the only one. The main reason is its danger to an individual. rikggo rikggo - Belstaff Lederjacke.
