Manchester United Transfer News: Latest on Andre Gomes and Zlatan Ibrahimovic

Manchester United have been linked with a move for the highly talented Valencia midfielder Andre Gomes.
The Portuguese midfielder has turned heads with his outstanding displays in La Liga over the last year and is a target for several clubs including Italian champions Juventus.
Earlier this year, rumours surfaced that the player’s agent Jorge Mendes has promised to deliver the player to Manchester United and therefore since the appointment of Jose Mourinho , those rumours have only intensified.
Reputed journalist Alfredo Pedulla is now reporting that Manchester United have submitted a bid for the La Liga star. The Red Devils have bid £35.2m for the Portuguese midfielder, plus £11.7m in bonuses.
Mendes also represents Mourinho and will help the Manchester United manager land Gomes this summer. Manchester United are in desperate need of a creative central midfielder and Gomes is one of the finest young midfielders around.
In other news, Manchester United are also closing in on the signing of Paris Saint-Germain striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
The Swedish international has already agreed terms with the club earlier this week and will be allowed a break from the national team to finalise his move.
Zlatan has worked with Mourinho before and the duo are thought to be looking forward to the reunion.
The 34 year old striker is in the form of his life and scored 50 goals in 51 games last season. He has rejected several big money offers from China and
MLS to come to the Premier league .

Jilted lover burns girlfriend alive. 'I have never seen something so atrocious" said lead police official

A Rome university student was burned alive by her ex-boyfriend after she left him, authorities said Monday. A murder one investigator called the most atrocious crime he has seen in his career.

22-year-old Sara Di Pietrantonio died on Sunday, May 29th, after her ex boyfriend Vincenzo Paduano, 27, set her car ablaze, prosecutor Maria told reporters.



He then chased her after she ran out of the car, setting her ablaze when he caught up with her, authorities said. Investigators said her attacker used a cigarette lighter to set Di Pietrantonio's face on fire after dousing her with alcohol.

"I can say that in 25 years in this work I have never seen something so atrocious," said Luigi Silipo, the lead police official in the investigation.

Paduano was being held for investigation of premeditated murder, Monteleone said.
The suspect first denied killing the woman, but after eight hours of interrogation, confessed to killing her, Silipo told reporters.

Paduano “didn't accept being abandoned' by the woman, Monteleone said. 'He organized, he planned the aggression,' the prosecutor said. Silipo said the suspect walked off his job as a security guard about 3am and waited outside the home of Di Pietrantonio's current boyfriend.

Then, after the woman left the home and drove off by herself, Paduano drove after her eventually forcing her car to the side of the road. He said.

"He got into her car, and after an argument, doused the car (interior) with a small bottle of alcohol, and doused Sara, too,” Silipo said. “She ran out, he torched the car, caught up with her, and after about 100 meters” set her ablaze, leaving her to die “in an atrocious manner,” the police official said.

A surveillance camera in the area captured some of the events, including at least two cars that passed by while the woman screamed in vain for help as she tried to flee, authorities said.

Monteleone made what she said was a fervent appeal to citizens to help such women, “not to look the other way.” She added that if passers-by had helped, the woman's life might have been saved.

She also encouraged women “not to keep hidden any threatening behavior by those who insist they love you, but it's not that way.”

Italian women's advocates have been trying to change mentalities in a country where men often turn violent when a women breaks off a relationship. One such champion for women to be more assertive in protecting themselves is an Italian lawyer whose face was mutilated in an acid attack ordered by her ex-boyfriend. She courageously testified at the ex-boyfriend's trial.

Sounding a call Monday to Italian woman to denounce threats by men to police was Chamber of Deputies President Laura Boldrini. The parliamentary leader said a change in cultural mentality was needed, starting in early childhood classrooms.

Women “must understand that those who should be ashamed are the violent ones, not the women who suffer threats," Boldrini said.

'Harambe has a 'future' - Zoo reveals sperm was removed from Harambe the gorilla after he was shot dead

The 17-year-old western lowland silverback Gorilla was shot dead when a four-year-old boy fell into his enclosure over the weekend. Zoo staff have revealed they retrieved and have frozen the animal's sperm so as to give the animal 'a future'.

Animal rights activists have questioned the Zoo management's security techniques and the child's parents over the incident but those affected by gorilla’s death may take comfort in the zoo’s admission that sperm from Harambe had been frozen after his death, which means his ‘gene pool’ will likely continue.

More than 290,000 have now signed a petition calling for 'Justice for Harambe' which lays blame squarely with the child's parents.
But Mr Maynard - who defended the zoo's decision to shoot the gorilla - has insisted 'there is a future' for Harambe because 'it's not the end of his gene pool'.

Harambe’s breed is critically endangered in the wild. Their numbers have delinced more than 60% to about 175,000 in the last quarter-century and though Harambe was not yet mature enough to breed, his sperm was collected after the shooting for possible reproductive use and for research purposes.

Between Tolu Ogunlesi and Deji Adeyanju

Earlier today, Special Assistant on Digital/New Media to President Buhari, Tolu Ogunlesi, tweeted that Nigeria lacks a strong economic advocacy. In response to his tweet, @LagosWklyRecords wrote that Economic advocacy would first be expected from the opposition party to the government and that PDP has no shadow cabinet - (that is members from their party designated to scrutinize the activities of every minister).

Immediately Tolu responded with "What is a PDP"? Tolu's response apparently didn't go down well with PDP's new media director, Deji Adeyanju. See his reaction after the cut...

FG appeals to Nigerians to buy made-in-Nigeria products

Minister of Science and Technology, Ogbonnaya Onu, has appealed to Nigerians to buy made in Nigeria products. The Minister made the appeal while speaking at a News Agency of Nigeria NAN forum in Abuja yesterday May 30th.

“We already have made in Nigeria cars. We want to champion the idea of Nigerians looking inward and thinking Nigeria promoting made in Nigeria products to encourage our own local manufacturers. It is very important.
That is the only way that we can ever become a producer nation. We cannot continue to be a consumer nation alone; it wouldn’t help us. We must help our own local producers. We must all start thinking of how we can do so. It shouldn’t be only the automobiles; it should be on all products.”‎he said

Which race of women do you think has the tightest vagina? Black, hispanic or whites? A new study tells us

Not all study is supposed to make sense or be educative..lol...some people don't have work. A new medical study titled “Comparison of vaginal shapes in Afro-American, Caucasian and Hispanic women as seen with Vinyl Polysiloxane Casting,” set out to determine which race of women has the tightest vaginas and guess what they arrived at?

According to preliminary findings, black women have the tightest, followed by Hispanic, and then Caucasian women. But how can you they arrive at this conclusion? Did they try out women?



According to reports, the study called for a full vinyl polysiloxane casts of the vagina to be obtained from the subjects –  23 African-American, 39 Caucasian and 15 Hispanic women. The casts were taken in lying, sitting and standing positions.

Here is now the study was described:

Analyses of cast and introital measurements revealed: (1) posterior cast length is significantly longer, anterior cast length is significantly shorter and cast width is significantly larger in Hispanics than in the other two groups and (2) the Caucasian introitus is significantly greater than that of the Afro-American subject.
The shape of the vagina also varies from woman to woman and can be categorized as parallel sides, conical, heart, slug and pumpkin seed [21,23]. When compared among races, the pumpkin seed shape was found to be specific to African-American women [23].
To me, the most interesting data compared vaginal shapes among 23 African-American, 39 Caucasian, and 15 Hispanic women. The researchers found that the Hispanic ladies’ vaginas were wider overall, longer in the back, and shorter in the front than the vaginas of the other women. The study also noted that the Caucasian women had a much larger vaginal opening than did the African American women.
So basically, Caucasian women tend to have longer vaginas at the front of the body (anterior), shorter at the rear. Hispanics tend to have larger overall width (what you would term tightness) with the shortest length. African women tend overall to have the smallest width (tightest).

Photos: Somali Military court sentences masterminds of Daallo Airline bomb attack, including airport security chief

Somalia’s military court in Mogadishu on Monday, May 30 pronounced sentence on Daallo Airline suicide attack suspects. Abdiwali Mohmoud Mo’ow who was the security chief of aviation agency at Adan Aden International Airport  was given life in jail sentence.

 

Arays Hashi Abdi a businessman who is said to be the main mastermind of the attack received the sentences in absentia.

Abshir Mohmmed Malin and Safiyo Abdullahi Hassan- the security scan operators sentenced to four years in military jail.

Liban Mohammad Yalahow, Omar Muhaydadin Hassuin, Mohammad and  Abdi Ilmi have been slapped with a sentence of one year in military jail.

Bashir Abdullahi Afrah, Ali Nor Salad And Adan Dahir Salad Shiekhow sentenced to 6 months in military Jail. Five others were acquitted after they were found not guilty.

On February 2, laptop bomber identified as Abdullahi Abdisalam Borleh, an elderly Somali national attacked Daallo Airlines Flight 3159.

The suspected suicide bomber detonated on board the Somalia-owned Daallo Airlines plane in mid-air, as it took off from Aden Adde International airport in Mogadishu.

The explosion failed to down the commercial jet, but it left a gaping hole in the fuselage. The force of the blast sucked the alleged bomber out of the plane’s cabin. His body fell to the ground near the district of Bal’ad, about 20 miles from the capital, where it was recovered by authorities.

The pilot of the Airbus A321 was forced to make an emergency landing just minutes after takeoff. The security footage released days later showed two men – one wearing a bright orange airport security vest (said to be Abdiweli, who is now sentenced to life in jail)– handing over what looks like a laptop case to a passenger waiting to board. Investigators said the laptop-like bag contained the bomb that was detonated on board the Djibouti-bound flight.

Al-Shabab has claimed responsibility for a purported bomb attack on a passenger plane, saying it was targeted at Western officials and Turkish NATO forces.

Al Shabab said the operation was "retribution for the crimes committed by the coalition of Western crusaders and their intelligence agencies against the Muslims of Somalia"

'Goodluck Jonathan's phone call to concede defeat left me in shock' - President Buhari

President Buhari yesterday revealed that the call from former President Jonathan conceding defeat before INEC announced the results of the 2015 Presidential election, left him in shock. Buhari disclosed this while speaking at the luncheon he organized for state house correspondents at the presidential villa yesterday May 30th.

"This is where I pay my respect to former President Goodluck Jonathan. This is actually a privileged information for you (journalists). He called me at a quarter past five in the evening. He said ‘Good evening your excellency’, and I said “Good evening your excellency’. He said I have called to congratulate you that I have conceded defeat. Of course there was dead silence on my end because I did not expect it. I was shocked. I did not expect it because after 16 years in government, the man was a deputy governor, a governor, a Vice-President and was President for six years. For him to have conceded defeat even before the result was announced by INEC, I think that was quite generous and gracious of him.”he said

Johnny Depp's daughter Lily-Rose responds to domestic abuse allegations against her father

Lily-Rose Depp, 17, has responded to the domestic violence allegations made against her father by his estranged wife, Amber Heard. 

 

The 17-year-old took to Instagram to share a throwback photo of herself as a baby learning how to walk with her father's guidance, along with the caption,

"My dad is the sweetest, most loving person I know, he's been nothing but a wonderful father to my little brother and I, and everyone who knows him would say the same."

Heard filed for divorce and was granted a domestic violence order against Johnny Depp. She and her lawyer appeared in court with photos of her bruises which she claims were inflicted various times during their marriage.

This is a screenshot of PEOPLE's article about Amber's domestic abuse claim, which states that the Los Angeles Police Department had responded to Amber's call last Saturday, but that there hadn't been any evidence of a crime nor had Amber wished to file a report. The article goes on to state that even if she had declined a report, had there had been any evidence of abuse, they would have conducted an investigation regardless.
