LIBERTY After a Week Zero rout of West-Oak; Travelers Rest came in to Liberty with the hopes of spoiling their its game of the season as well.

The Red Devils had none of that with a 48-30 win over TR, thanks mainly to senior quarterback Brandon Alexander, who rushed for 246 yards with five touchdowns.

Senior linebacker Parker Ford led the defense in shutting down the ground-and-pound offense of Travelers Rest with a muffed punt recovery and numerous tackles.

The Devildogs were led by senior Denzel Dennis who rushed for 143 yards and two touchdowns.

Liberty dominated the first quarter with two big rushing touchdowns by Alexander to jump out to an early 14-0 lead.

Then TR's Denzel Dennis answered with a 58-yard score, and a two point conversion to cut the lead to 14-8.

Late into the first quarter the Devildogs muffed a punt that Parker Ford recovered; followed by a quick one yard score by Alexander to put the Red Devils a 21-8 lead.

Then after a quick three-and-out Liberty were back at it again with a 15-yard touchdown pass from Alexander to Dolan Holder to take the score to 28-8.

A 67-yard run by Toriano Pone cut the Red Devils lead to 28-14, but as halftime approached Alexander broke a 56-yard rushing touchdown and to take Liberty into the half with a 35-14 lead.

The third quarter continued to go back and forth between TR and Liberty. The Red Devils' Dalton James scored from five yards out to put them on top 42-14.

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Aug. 24, 2012) - Sennen Resources Ltd. (SN.V) ("Sennen" or the "Company") comments on the News Release dated August 22, 2012 issued by Liberty Silver Corp ("Liberty") stating that Liberty intend to extend their hostile offer (the "Offer") to Sennen Shareholders until September 10, 2012.

Do not tender your Sennen Shares to the Liberty Offer. Sennen Shareholders are reminded that the Board of Directors have recommended REJECTION of the Liberty Offer for the reasons set out in the Director's Circular dated July 30, 2012. There is no need for Sennen Shareholders to do anything to REJECT the liberty Offer. Please refer to the Director's Circular, which is available on SEDAR, for more detailed reasons for REJECTION, and steps to take if you have already tendered your Sennen Shares.

It comes as no surprise that Liberty's efforts to make a 'cash-grab' of Sennen's treasury have failed. Also, as Liberty has 'sunk' costs into this irresponsible venture, they have little or nothing to lose by extending their bid deadline-possibly endlessly. Sennen Shareholders are justifiably outraged by what they consider to be continual harassment by Liberty, and by extending their offer, Liberty continue to alienate any microscopic support they may have achieved to date. Liberty continues to waste both their own, and unfortunately, the Company's time and money. Sennen Shareholders are not impressed with Liberty's strategy of 'value destruction'.

The facts have not changed:

Stated Ian Rozier, President and CEO, "Liberty continues to treat the Shareholders of Sennen with contempt. We have made our own feelings very clear to Liberty, as have our Shareholders, as to what we think of their Offer, their company, their management and their assets, but they, along with their various advisors, persist in continuing with this nonsense, and in doing so, waste everyone's time and money. Liberty have no credibility with the majority of Sennen Shareholders, and based upon written communication received by Sennen management from one of Liberty's own large shareholders, are rapidly eroding any they have amongst their own. Sennen has zero interest in doing any business whatsoever with Liberty Silver."

Do not tender your Sennen Shares to the Liberty Offer. Sennen Shareholders are reminded that the Board of Directors have recommended REJECTION of the Liberty Offer for the reasons set out in the Director's Circular dated July 30, 2012. There is no need for Sennen Shareholders to do anything to REJECT the liberty Offer. Please refer to the Director's Circular, which is available on SEDAR, for more detailed reasons for REJECTION, and steps to take if you have already tendered your Sennen Shares.

Sennen Responds to Desperate Plea From Liberty

Liberty Ross doesn't care to play the part of a woman scorned by her cheating husband.

The 33-year-old British model was in high spirits this week as she attended the premiere for "Lawless" in L.A. She walked the red carpet alone for the first time since the news broke about her husband Rupert Sanders having an affair with Kristen Stewart.

Liberty looked stunning on the red carpet in a casual look complete with a green silk blouse, black leggings, and sexy black ankle boots. She is still not wearing her wedding ring, a sign that the relationship between her and Rupert won't be repairing itself anytime soon.

Between Liberty's sexy red carpet appearances and Rob's appearance on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" joking about the breakup it looks like these two are trying to take the scandal in stride.

Now that Rupert may be out of the picture who could she date next? We have a few ideas.

Shia LaBeouf

Now that the model is free to do as she pleases she should have some fun around Hollywood and who better to take out on the town than Shia? Liberty went to Shia's premiere of "Lawless" this week and we think with his good looks, awesome sense of humor, and undeniable talent he'd be a great rebound for Liberty.

Robert Pattinson

With everything that has happened we don't really think these two should be jumping into anything serious with anyone for awhile BUT just how awesome would it be for these two to casually go out together? With their media appearances it's clear they're trying to remain positive and lighthearted over the situation while we see Kristen Stewart looking down and depressed. It would only give Kristen a taste of her own medicine for Rob and Liberty to enjoy a night out together.

Liberty Ross Walks Red Carpet Alone - Who She Could Date Next

Liberty Ross is staying strong post-scandal.

Although the British model, 33, hasn't been wearing her wedding ring since her husband Rupert Sanders, 41, was caught cheating with actress Kristen Stewart, 22, a source tells Us Weekly "no decisions have been made" about their 15-year relationship.

PHOTOS: Kristen and Rupert's affair

The Snow White and the Huntsman director Sanders was photographed engaged in a steamy makeout session with Snow White actress Stewart on July 17. Ross learned of her husband's affair the week before Us Weekly's exclusive photos emerged on July 24.

"Nothing has been filed. It's still too early to tell what will happen," the source tells Us. "She is talking to and seeing Rupert now for the kids, but as far as the marriage she's still processing everything that happened."

PHOTOS: Women who've been cheated on

The former British Vogue cover girl shares daughter Skyla, 7, and son Tennyson, 5, with Sanders. The director did issue a public apology to his wife in a statement to Us on July 25, saying, "I am utterly distraught about the pain I have caused my family."

As for the future of their relationship, the source tells Us, "No decisions have been made. It's been very hard on her dealing with this and all the media attention. She is very strong and working through it and keeping private about it."

Ross stepped out on the red carpet Wednesday for her first time since the scandal. Looking stylish in a silky green button-down shirt, Ross smiled for the cameras at the Hollywood premiere of Lawless. The only thing missing from her ensemble? Her wedding ring.

PHOENIX (AP) -- Cappie Pondexter scored 31 points to lead the New York Liberty to an 89-77 victory over Phoenix on Thursday night, handing the Mercury their ninth straight loss.

Nicole Powell and Leilani Mitchell scored 13 points each, Plenette Pierson had 12 points and Kara Braxton added 12 points and nine rebounds to help the Liberty (9-13) win for the third time in four games since the league's month-long Olympic break.

Pondexter shot 9 for 15 from the field - 5 for 9 on 3pointers - and was 8 for 8 from the free-throw line. New York shot 47 percent (30 for 64), including 13 for 27 on 3s, and moved into sole possession of fourth place in the Eastern Conference, one-half game ahead of Chicago and two games behind third-place Atlanta.

DeWanna Bonner scored 34 points for Phoenix (4-18), which continued to play without several of its injured regulars.

The Liberty led by 18 in the first half before Phoenix rallied to pull to 56-53 midway through the third period on Bonner's layup. However, Pondexter scored nine points over the next 6 minutes and New York took a 70-61 lead into the final period.

Sammy Prahalis added 12 points, four rebounds and four assists, and Krystal Thomas added 13 rebounds for the Mercury, who played only eight players.

Phoenix was without Olympic gold medalist Diana Taurasi, who was in warmups but said she felt lightheaded and did not play. She underwent a dental procedure last Friday. Before the Olympic break, Taurasi had missed 18 of Phoenix's 20 games with a hip flexor but then led the Americans in scoring during the Olympic tournament, averaging 12.4 points a game.

Phoenix regulars Candice Dupree (knee), Alexis Gray-Lawson (knee) and Charde Houston (ankle) all sat out with injuries.

New York made 4 of 5 from beyond the arc in the first 4 minutes and then scored eight straight points to take a 30-16 lead after the first quarter.

Pondexter hit three 3s in the second to help the Liberty take a 45-27 lead with 4:36 left in the half. But Bonner scored nine points down the stretch as the Mercury closed to 50-40 at the break.

Liberty Ross

After Sanders was caught on camera last month kissing Stewart, who starred in the Sanders- directed Snow White and the Huntsman, friends tell us Ross is refusing to let his infidelity tear her apart.

She wont hide at home, a source tells us. Liberty has shown incredible grace going through a difficult situation where all the intimate details are very public.

Friends say Ross and Sanders are having marriage counseling, and he is begging her to forgive him. But Liberty is taking her time to work out her feelings and to ultimately decide what would be best for their kids.

She is a very emotionally smart woman. She knows she can take her time and make her own decision, one that would be the best for her and her family, and not be persuaded by what other people, and the media, think of her and the situation, a source told us.

Our source added that its still unclear whether the couple will reconcile. One thing that is clear is that before this, Rupert and Liberty had a wonderful relationship . . . One affair does not erase a 10-year history and many shared experiences together. It is just whether they are strong enough to weather it.

TSX: LBE

TORONTO , Aug. 23, 2012 /CNW/ - Liberty Mines Inc. (LBE.TO) ("Liberty" or the "Company") today announced that a positive preliminary economic assessment has been completed for its Hart Project, a nickel deposit located in Timmins Ontario, and approximately five kilometers from the Company's Redstone mill. The preliminary economic assessment was prepared by Stantec Consulting. All dollar amounts are in Canadian currency. A final version of the Preliminary Economic Assessment will be filed on SEDAR within 45 days as required.

Preliminary Economic Assessment Study Highlights

"We are very encouraged by the positive results of the Preliminary Economic Assessment and our prospects for the Hart Project," said Chris Stewart , President and CEO of Liberty Mines Inc. "The PEA suggests that the Hart Project has the potential to become economically viable, generate positive cash flow, and take advantage of the available capacity at our Redstone Mill. Recent drill results, although preliminary at this time, also suggest that the deposit has the potential for mineralization expansion at depth and stronger economics."

Mr. Stewart added, "With the only operating mill in the Shaw Dome Region, a large land package that includes the Hart East Deposit whose initial drill results demonstrated the potential for a significant mineralized zone, as well as the opportunity for property consolidation in the region, we believe that Liberty's prospects are extremely strong over the long term, particularly as the price of nickel recovers."

Hart Project Description The Hart Project will be a stand-alone underground mine used for the extraction of nickel ore, and will share synergies with Liberty's existing assets and facilities. Underground production will be done primarily via long-hole mining and transported to surface using diesel trucks. The Hart Mine is expected to produce an average of 750 tonnes of nickel ore per day throughout its 8 year life of mine.

The Preliminary Economic Assessment assumes that construction of the mine will begin in 2013 and will reach a steady rate of production by 2017.

Summary of the Hart Project Mineral Resource Estimate The Preliminary Economic Assessment was based on resource estimates prepared by SRK Consulting ( Canada ) Inc. according to NI43-101 standards and filed as a technical report on the property on March 4, 2010 summarized as follows:

In the city where she played high school ball, Cappie Pondexter helped the New York Liberty boost their playoff hopes in their last game.

The league's second-highest scorer will try to deliver again in the place where she started her WNBA career.

Pondexter and the Liberty look to extend the Phoenix Mercury's team-record losing streak to nine Thursday night when the clubs meet for the first time in 2012.

Loser of four of five heading into Tuesday's game at Chicago, New York (8-13) won 77-67 to move within one-half game of the Sky for the fourth and final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.

Pondexter, the first two-time Ms. Illinois basketball while at Marshall High School, scored 25 points to bump her average to 20.3.

"Obviously it's important because you have a buildup of excitement from being home, but more importantly we needed this win to inch closer to the playoffs,'' she said after New York improved to 1-1 on its five-game trip.

Pondexter, who won WNBA titles with the Mercury in 2007 and 2009, returns to Phoenix for the third time since being dealt to New York in a three-team swap in 2010 that brought Candice Dupree to the Mercury.

In New York's last game in the desert, Pondexter scored 17 of her 25 points in the final 6:32 of a 74-70 victory Aug. 23.

It was a far better result than in her first trip to Phoenix as a visiting player, as she was ejected in the third quarter of a 97-82 loss July 3, 2010, for smacking Penny Taylor in the face on a layup attempt.

The Mercury (4-17) have been dealing with plenty of frustration as they've gone winless since June 29 and are one game ahead of Tulsa - owner of the league's worst record.

Liberty-Mercury Preview

ROSEMONT, Ill. (AP) -- Cappie Pondexter scored 25 points and Plenette Pierson added 21 as the New York Liberty beat the Chicago Sky 77-67 Tuesday night.

The Liberty (8-13) saw an 18-point second half lead trimmed to six early in the fourth quarter, then rebuilt a double-digit advantage and maintained it the rest of the way. New York pulled one-half game behind Chicago for fourth place in the Eastern Conference.

''The team we were competing for the playoff spot is Chicago,'' Liberty coach John Whisenant said. ''So getting a win here was very important to us, trying to claw our way back into the playoff race.''

Sylvia Fowles scored 18 points, Shay Murphy had 16 and Epiphanny Prince added 10 for the Sky (8-12), who lost their seventh straight and 11th in 12.

Prince, playing in her third game since returning from a foot injury, was carried off the court with 4:51 to play after rolling her right ankle. She didn't return, but was seen standing courtside through the final minutes.

Fowles and Cash had six points apiece as Chicago led for all but the opening seconds on the way to a 21-16 after one quarter. Pierson paced New York with eight points.

Pondexter scored back-to-back buckets over a 21-second span late in the second quarter to give the Liberty their first lead since the opening minute. It was part of an 13-0 run that helped New York to a 40-32 halftime lead. Pondexter, who grew up in Chicago, had eight points in the period.

''Obviously it's important because you have a buildup of excitement from being home, but more importantly we needed this win to inch closer to the playoffs,'' she said.

The Liberty more than doubled the lead in the third quarter behind 12 points from Pondexter. New York led 61-43 with 1:23 remaining before Chicago pulled within 12 entering the final period.

''We have to put together longer stretches of defense,'' Sky coach Pokey Chatman said. ''You know what New York is going to bring. It starts with Cappie (Pondexter). She is the head of the snake and we didn't do a very good job of cutting that off. Plenette (Pierson) is back and healthy. They made plays.''

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Aug. 21, 2012) - Liberty Silver Corp. (LSL.TO)(LBSV) announced today that it is extending its offer for all the issued and outstanding common shares of Sennen Resources Ltd. until 9 p.m. Toronto time on Monday, September 10, 2012.

"We remain confident that tendering to our offer represents the best value for Sennen shareholders rather than maintaining Sennen's status quo", Geoff Browne, Liberty Silver's chairman and chief executive officer said. "Sennen's board formed a special committee and hired financial and legal advisers more than a month ago to examine our offer. The special committee has yet to come up with a superior - or indeed, any - alternative proposal."

Under Liberty Silver's offer, Sennen shareholders will receive 0.28 of a Liberty Silver common share for each Sennen common share. The exchange ratio, at the time the offer was made, represented an implied price of $0.20 per Sennen share.

The offer represents a premium of 47.3% to the 20-day volume weighted average trading price ended July 13, 2012, being $0.135. This is also higher than the 34.8% average take-over bid premium paid for mining companies listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange and TSX Venture Exchange over the past 12 months. The offer is valued at approximately $13.36 million, an amount that is expected to exceed Sennen's net cash reserves when the proposed transaction closes.

Mr. Browne added: "The combination of Sennen's cash resources and Liberty Silver's skilled management team and prudent risk-mitigation strategy will enable us to advance the Trinity Silver project, as well as identify other low-risk opportunities to the benefit of shareholders of both our companies.

"With the recent acquisition of the Hi Ho properties, we have met yet another milestone. As promised, we have added significant upside to our established resource, moved very close to fulfilling our earn-in requirements, and further de-risked the project. We are now planning the best path towards re-starting production."

Other benefits of Liberty Silver's offer include:

Setting the Record Straight

Liberty Silver also wishes to correct misleading allegations contained in a press release issued by Sennen on August 20, 2012.

"Our directors have significant skin in the game, a clear indication of their confidence in Liberty Silver's business strategy and in Trinity Silver's bright prospects", Mr. Browne said.
