Manchester United chief executive David Gill has revealed that the Red Devils have sold fewer season tickets than expected so far this summer. The club have also taken the surprising step of placing 4,000 season tickets on general sale, according to a report from The Daily Telegraph, as they look to reach last sumer’s figure of 54,000 sales. United fans had been urged to boycott season tickets by the ‘Green and Gold’ protest campaign that was highly visible around Old Trafford last season. Although the campaign has enjoyed little obvious success in shifting owners the Glazer family from Old Trafford, Gill admits that season ticket sales are not what they could be. “I’ll be clear on that. Last year our target was 54,000 season tickets, we’ve sold 51,800, which is pretty good in the current climate,” Gill told reporters. “We’ve sold more season tickets than the capacity of most Premier League grounds. Our executive seat sales are on track as compared with last year in a different mar

MUMBAI — Bollywood is tackling the subject of sexual harassment in the workplace, which campaigners say is increasingly becoming an issue as traditional gender roles change in modern urban India.”Hello Darling”, which was released on Friday, is inspired by the 1980 Hollywood comedy “Nine To Five” in which Jane Fonda, Lily Tomlin and Dolly Parton seek to get even with their arrogant and sexist male boss.The Hindi-language film — the latest to address more contemporary themes rather than the traditional Bollywood song and dance love story extravaganzas — stars Eesha Koppikhar, Celina Jaitley, Gul Panaag and Jaaved Jaffrey.”‘Hello Darling’ gives a very serious message to society,” said Koppikhar. “There are some men in the corporate world who are always on the lookout to flirt with women.”The film speaks about such men and how women have to be careful and deal with them.”Sexual harassment — or “Eve teasing” as it is called in India — is a growing problem, as more women leave the hom

With utilities adopting standards to increase the amount of solargenerated electricity in coming years, the US could bolster its presence in the global solar-power market. The quickening growth pace could present attractive opportunities for investors, according to some professionals.At the end of 2009, the US ranked fourth in total solar capacity, with 2.09 gigawatts installed, behind Germany with 9.79Gw, Spain with 4.01Gw, and Japan with 2.68Gw, according to Bloomberg New Energy Finance. With the US installed capacity growing at a faster pace than that of the international market, the country may be on track to become a more dominant market by 2014, according to Larry Sherwood, an analyst at the Interstate Renewable Energy Council.Some 23Gw of solar capacity are under development in the US, enough to provide electricity for 4.4 million households, according to the Solar Energy Industries Assn. Solar demand in the US is expected to grow 75% in 2011, compared with 2010. About 1.5Gw to

Uber-hottie, Halle Berry may be seen with her ex, Gabriel Aubry, but don’t think for a second that they’re getting back together. According to sources, their time spent with each other is strictly for their daughter Nahla. It’s not Halle Berrye’s idea, either, blame it on the new craze that’s sweeping across America – it’s called PARENTING. A source told People magazine:“They are great parents and they want the best for Nahla. She is their priority. They love that little girl a lot. They’re going to co-parent and go on with their lives. They will be in each other’s lives forever.”And just because Halle Berry isn’t dating her baby daddy anymore, doesn’t mean she’s available. The mag also said“She said she’s taking at least a year off from men, She needs a good break!”

The Dallas Cowboys are running out of excuses for their sloppy preseason. They’re also running out of time to clean things up.So coach Wade Phillips is considering doing something he’d rather avoid: play his regulars in the exhibition finale Thursday night.The Cowboys are expecting to be Super Bowl contenders, yet Tony Romo has led the starters to one touchdown in four games this summer and it came on a drive that began 8 yards from the end zone. In a 23-7 loss to the Houston Texans on Saturday night, the first-teamers turned the ball both times they were in scoring position. The defense got run over, too.”We’re not ready for prime time yet,” Phillips said. “If the players aren’t ready to play for the first regular-season game, then I need to get them ready to play. … If we see that things are correctable and we can correct them in practice, we’ll do that. If we need more game time, then we’ll just have to do it.”Offense and defense weren’t the only disappointments. Phillips said he
