In a sort of a juicy prelude to the FIFA World Cup in Brazil which kicks off in less than two weeks, a group of minimally dressed women competed last week in the 2014 Lingerie World Cup in Holland. The competition, organized by Dutch channel Veronica TV, saw the attendance of scantily-clad contestants from the hosting nation Holland as well as women from Italy, South Korea, Spain, Algeria, Russia, Germany and Brazil. Under the supervision of the special referee, former Dutch International and Everton player Andy Van der Meyde, the teams from the different countries competed in an actual 4-a side football tournament. The final saw the Dutch team beating Spain, leading them to proudly lift the Lingerie World Cup and throwing the responsibility over to the men. Will The "Oranje" Follow Suit in Brazil? Managed by the freshly appointed Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal, the Dutch national team beat Ghana in 1-0 in a friendly last Saturday, dominating ball possession throughout the game.

"Effective and Productive" Launch American Gaming Association President and CEO Geoff Freeman called the inaugural AGA Government Affairs Fly-In event "effective and productive." The gathering in the nation's capital provided a forum for over 40 AGA leading professionals from influential departments in government affairs, communications, public affairs and compliance in the nation's capital to connect and diversify the AGA spectrum of gaming professionals. AGA Strategic Priorities Freeman identified the organizational priorities of increasing engagement within the AGA's newly launched Get to Know Gaming campaign designed to promote the value of gaming through informing the public of the social benefits of gaming in terms of community contributions and regional economic advantages. New Research Study to be Released Freeman presented factual research supporting this claim as well, previewing soon-to-be-released large scale AGA research providing a realistic portrait to the public of the actual range of demographics that casino visitors to America represent, which is meant to dispel lingering common stereotypes regarding casino patrons. Gaming Legislation Further research from AGA concerns an overview of Congressional legislation on the state of gaming play in Washington DC, focused primarily on relevant gaming legislation such as legislation such as immigration, tax reform, travel and tourism promotion, and terrorism risk insurance. Gaming Regulation Further insight into how the political landscape is shifting to integrate gaming regulation is provided by University of Virginia's Center for Politics founder and director Dr. Larry Sabato, with greater insight into federal regulatory compliance in regards to Anti-Money Laundering laws available through opportunities for engagement with FinCEN, the oversight agency. Networking Opportunity In addition to information sharing, Greenberg emphasized the dual benefits of networking that also took place between the professionals and officials who attended, pointing out the opportunity that the Government Affairs Fly-In event provided to "share information and discuss issues facing the gaming industry." Greenberg concluded his update by addressing future plans for the AGA campaign, which revolve around increasing opportunities to identify and address issues of the most common interest among all members and future event participants.

Today Nadal meets one of the players who beat him on clay earlier in April at Monte Carlo, David Ferrer. To reach the quarter-finals, Ferrer eliminated the no. 19 South African Kevin Anderson 6-3. 6-3, 6-7 (5), 6-1. Ferrer lost 21 times out of the 27 matches he had against Nadal. Speaking on today's match, Ferrer gave credit to his fellow countryman, saying: "I hope that I will instill some doubts in Rafa's mind, but if we play at our best level, both of us, he will be a better player."
