Here's what's new on StarNet, the online service of the Arizona Daily Star: Curb's end splits cops, gun buffs It's almost certain that a federal ban of 19 kinds of semiautomatic firearms will end after Monday. What's not certain is the effect it will have on the nation once these firearms - such as Uzis and AK-47 rifles - are again legal to purchase. http://www.azstarnet.com Autumn, and pollen, are in the air School's in, the monsoon's out, the nights are cooling. . . and the pollen counts just spiked off the charts. So, kiss summer goodbye and breathe in the fall allergy season, now in full swing and making a whole lot of us suddenly quite miserable. http://www.azstarnet.com/sn/health >From La. to Pa., verbal assaults dominate presidential campaign NEW ORLEANS - John Kerry ramped up his attack on President Bush's domestic policies yesterday, and Bush returned the favor with stinging comments about Kerry's plans, as they and others close to them grew more caustic in their comments. http://www.azstarnet.com/sn/vote_2004 Phil Villarreal: Romance the heart of 1976's 'Rocky' What everyone remembers about "Rocky," the best-picture Oscar winner of 1976, is the climactic fight at the end. I think the key to the film, though, lingers in the sloppy opening fight, set in a dingy club. http://www.azstarnet.com/sn/ent_index Nothing to concede: UA goalkeeper jumps into frame without giving up a goal UA goalkeeper McCall Smith, a freshman, has helped the UA get into its 2004 season in a way it never has before - the first 4-0 start in the program' 11-year history. Smith has not allowed a goal while playing every minute of the first four games, making a total of 14 saves. http://wildcats.azstarnet.com Petition for UA polling place Four University of Arizona students asked Pima County elections officials yesterday to establish a polling place on campus. http://www.dailystar.com/dailystar/metro/fri.html Africa mosaic: Fund-raiser will give Tucsonans a look at fashions from Africa Tokie Kehinde, an administrator, hasn't seen much in the way of African fashion on the streets of Tucson in her six weeks here. But that doesn't stop her from wearing a traditional boubou (pronounced boo-boo), a straight, loose gown with origins in Senegal. Or from wearing a wraparound skirt, called an iro (pronounced eero), from her homeland of Nigeria. http://www.dailystar.com/dailystar/accent/fri.html Varsity Game of the Week Catch a live webcast of tonight's Canyon del Oro vs. Amphitheater game on StarNet starting at 7 p.m. Also, bring your radio to the game and listen to the webcast live on Radio StarNet, a low-power broadcast at 102.8 FM. http://www.azstarnet.com/sn/preps Flowing Wells RB ready to increase role Fresh off his record-setting performance last week, Flowing Wells running back Micheal Gillmore realizes the only thing harder than breaking a record is doing it twice. Gillmore, a senior, rushed for 331 yards on 29 carries en route to beating Marana 33-0 and snapped Flowing Wells' single-game rushing record of 314, set in 1958 by Jim Faulks. http://www.azstarnet.com/sn/preps Get a night life with AzNightBuzz What's to do at night in Tucson and Phoenix?
