Soldiers unleash mayhem on Ikorodu road; vandalise and burn BRT buses

This morning a BRT bus hit and killed a soldier who was reportedly riding on a bike on the BRT lane. As a result of that tragic incident, soldiers are unleashing terror on the busy Ikorodu road.
The soldiers who expressed anger over the death of their colleague earlier blocked the road at palmgrove and vandalised every BRT in sight, causing a massive traffic. The drivers of the buses came out of their cars and escaped.
The windscreens of the buses were vandalised and at about 9.30am, soldiers began setting the buses on fire at palmgrove.

A journalist who attempted to take photos was severely beaten by the soldiers and had to be rushed to the hospital.

The Scoop counted at least 80 soldiers on the road between Onipanu and Palmgrove and pedestrians were required to raise their two hands as they passed to avoid beating by the soldiers.
Some other pedestrians who were making calls with their phones or even just holding the phone in sight were slapped and kicked and their phones seized or damaged.
At Palmgrove, there was a terrible scene as soldiers set a BRT bus on fire in the midst of four other BRT buses and just across an MRS fillong station. Vehicles passing by including fuel tankers stand the risk of being caught in the event of an explosion especially as there is a massive gridlock on the road.

World Cup Goal-Line Technology Gets First Use, Works Just Fine

France made history in its 3-0 victory over Honduras on Sunday, scoring the first World Cup goal that was confirmed by goal-line technology. French striker Karim Benzema blasted a shot off of the inside of the bar, and it bounced off of Honduran goalkeeper Noel Valladares just over the line. Brazilian referee Sandro Ricci went to the replay technology to confirm that it was in fact a goal, one that belonged as an own-goal rather than to Benzema, who ended the game with a brace rather than a hat trick.

While much in soccer remains up to the referee’s perceptions and inclinations, FIFA has taken a historic step in the right direction this World Cup by introducing goal line technology. The FIFA laws of the game state that a goal occurs “when the whole of the ball passes over the goal line, between the goalposts and under the crossbar.” This may sound simple enough, but it can sometimes be very hard to tell.

Arguably the most controversial World Cup example comes from the 1966 final, where Geoff Hurst gave England a 3-2 lead over West Germany with a controversial goal:

What’s tricky about these sorts of goals is timing and vantage point. The ball may only be in the goal for a fraction of a second and so it can be difficult for a human eye to tell what really happened. It is also plausible that what looks like a goal from the perspectives of the referee and linesman does not reflect the actual position of the ball. In 1996, two Oxford engineers used video sequencing to discover that Hurst’s shot was at least 6 centimeters away from fully crossing the goal line. Ex post-facto science aside, England went on to win that World Cup final 4-2. The Germans are still upset about the injustice of it all.

However, FIFA’s choice to bring goal line technology to this year’s competition probably has more to do with an egregious moment from the 2010 competition in South Africa—again during a match between England and Germany. Frank Lampard’s shot, which would have tied the game 2-2, clearly made it over the goal line, but was disallowed by the referee. Germany won the game 4-1. Later, Uruguayan linesman Mauricio Espinosa admitted that he could not see the ball well enough to make the right call.

FIFA accepted bids from four goal-line technology companies before awarding a probationary contract to German company GoalControl last year. The GoalControl system—which costs around $250,000 to install per stadium—uses 14 high-speed cameras to track the ball’s position both on the field and in the air. If the ball passes the goal line, a buzzing smartwatch alerts the referee within a single second. As BusinessWeek points out, sports with a long tradition often inspire a Luddite streak. The key to GoalControl is that it can discreetly offer goal confirmation without disrupting the flow of the game. During Sunday’s game between Honduras and France, it took just one minute for the TV audience to see that it was in fact a goal.

ECSTATIC PUSKAS AWARD IN THE MAKING!!!

Three days in to this World Cup and already the champions have a weaker grip on their trophy. Spain lost the first game four years ago, too, but defeat by Switzerland in South Africa cannot compare psychologically to these stunning events in north-east Brazil.
Spain’s worst defeat since a 1963 reverse to Scotland, this was more than a setback. This was a humiliating, humbling capitulation, a defeat that asks as much about the mental fortitude of Vicente del Bosque’s team as it does their hapless defending.
Some defeats in sport represent more than the loss of a solitary contest and this was one of them. This was a 7&6 in Ryder Cup singles, an Ashes defeat by an innings, a round one knockout in Vegas. Some teams would not recover from this. It remains to be seen if Spain can.



Holland were brilliant. So hungry as to be ravenous and driven relentlessly forwards by the mesmeric talents of Robin van Persie and Arjen Robben.
The upshot was one of the World Cup’s most startling results. We all remember Argentina’s loss to Cameroon in 1990, France succumbing to Senegal in Seoul 12 years later. In the very same way, we will remember this.
Taken in isolation, the result was staggering enough. Spain 1 Holland 5. Say it slowly to make sure it’s real.
What made this even more remarkable, though, was the way that it happened. Moments before half-time, Spain were a goal ahead and cruising. Had David Silva scored when played clear at this time the champions probably would have won.

Fast forward an hour, though, and Spain were on their knees. In their eyes they had the shocked look of street mugging victims. Holland scored five and could have scored eight. Iker Casillas – who had a dreadful night – produced a stunning double save late on, while Wesley Sneijder fell over when it looked easier to score.
'In the end, it could have been six, seven or eight,' said Van Persie. 'But, really, it couldn’t be better.'
Ultimately, the only thing that saved Spain was the full-time whistle. Back in the quiet of the dressing room, they will have looked at each other and seen faces they did not recognise staring back.

The highlights reel will, of course, show them scoring first. Once again there was controversy about it but few will care now. 

Arena de Sao Paulo, Sao Paulo

BRAZIL VS CROATIA 20:00GMT

Of the three biggest clubs in Sao Paulo, the only one which previously did not own a stadium with the necessary size and infrastructure to host games was the city’s best-supported side: Sport Club Corinthians Paulista.
Yet this long-yearned for dream of the Corinthians faithful will finally come true ahead of the 2014 FIFA World Cup™ in the shape of the Arena de Sao Paulo. Under construction in the neighbourhood of Itaquera, which is in the city’s Eastern Zone and a traditional Corintianos stronghold, the project is scheduled to be completed by early 2014.
The stadium works are also expected to boost development in the Eastern Zone, which is one of Sao Paulo’s most deprived areas and home to nearly four million people, as well as ensuring hundreds of workers gain professional qualifications. A total of close to 6,000 people will be employed either directly or indirectly over the course of the construction process.

The Arena de Sao Paulo has been chosen to host the Opening Match of Brazil 2014 and will also welcome five other encounters, including one semi-final. Its capacity will be 62,601.

Spain, Argentina, Chile and Cameroon arrive in Brazil

The national teams that feature FC Barcelona players make their way to Brazil ahead of the opening match of the World Cup on Thursday

With only three days before the World Cup kicks off, the majority of the national teams set to participate in the tournament have made their way to Brazil. The Spanish national team arrived in Brazil from the United States on Monday morning, they completed their first training session in Curitiba that afternoon.

Alex Song’s Cameroon also arrived in Brazil after disputes over World Cup bonuses were resolved with the county’s FA.

Messi and Mascherano’s Argentina were given a hero’s send off before the trip to Belo Horizonte.

Alves “eager” to get things started

This Monday, Dani Alves held a press conference ahead of the opening match of the World Cup, which is scheduled for Thursday. “We’re very eager for the World Cup to start,” he said. “Spain are favourites because they are defending the title,” he added. The right back concluded the press conference by saying that he hopes for a Brazil-Argentina final and that he’s “sure Neymar will leave his mark” on the tournament.

France, Argentina, Uruguay, Ecuador and Honduras land in Brazil

Opponents in the third round of the group stage, the teams of Ecuador and France, have landed this afternoon in Porto Alegre and Sao Paulo respectively. “I'm excited to be in Brazil for the FIFA World Cup”, said French coach Didier Deschamps. “We had a good preparation and the players are ready to go. They look forward to playing in the Maracana stadium as well, where our third group match will be.” The French squad then travelled to Ribeirao Preto, in the interior of the state, where they will train at the Estadio Santa Cruz, while the Ecuadorians continued on their way to Viamão, about 40 minutes away from the capital of Rio Grande do Sul, where they will prepare for the tournament at the Centro de Treinamento Vila Ventura . Early in the evening, the city of Belo Horizonte welcomed two South American teams and two former FIFA World Cup™ champions: Uruguay, winner in 1930 and 1950, when it was responsible for what became known as the 'Maracanazo' (defeating Brazil in the final at the Maracana stadium); and Argentina, champion in 1978 and 1986 and great rival of the host country's national team. Both drove to the metropolitan area of Belo Horizonte, in the state of Minas Gerais. Argentina will practice at the Cidade do Galo, in Vespasiano, and Uruguay will prepare for the competition at the Estadio Joaquim Henrique Nogueira (better known as Arena do Jacare), in Sete Lagoas. "We prepared for the tournament at home. It's a major privilege to be able to feel the warmth and the care coming from the public in our everyday routine", explained La Celeste's centre back Diego Lugano. Uruguay open their campaign in the World Cup on Saturday, 14 June, against Costa Rica, while France, Argentina and Ecuador have their first matches on the next day, 15 June, against Honduras, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Switzerland, respectively. In total, 25 national teams (in addition to the Brazilian delegation) are already in the country ahead of the 2014 FIFA World Cup. Honduras, who will train at the city of Porto Feliz, state of Sao Paulo, have just landed in Brazil. Costa Rica are expected for later tonight.

Employee who leaked Jay Z, Solange video fired, hotel says

CNN) -- The hotel where Jay Z had an alleged altercation with Beyonce's sister says it has fired the person who leaked the tape to the media.

"The Standard has identified the individual responsible for breaching the security policies of the hotel and recording the confidential CCTV video released by TMZ," said Brian Phillips, a spokesman for the hotel.

"The Standard has already terminated the individual and will now be pursuing all available civil and criminal remedies."

In the statement, Phillips said the hotel will turn over its information to authorities.

TMZ says the surveillance video is from an elevator and was takenthe night of the Met Gala this month in New York.

In the video, a woman who resembles Solange Knowles enters just before a man who appears to be the rapper. They appear to exchange words before the woman lunges forward and starts striking him. Another unidentified man grabs and holds her.

A woman who resembles Beyonce stands in the corner of the elevator during most of the altercation. Jay Z is Beyonce's husband and Solange's brother-in-law.

It's unclear what caused the fight.

Representatives for Solange, Jay Z and Beyonce have not responded to CNN requests for comment.

Shortly after the video was released, the hotel said it was "shocked and disappointed" by the breach of security.

"We are investigating with the utmost urgency the circumstances surrounding the situation and, as is our customary practice, will discipline and prosecute the individuals involved to our fullest capacity," it said this week.

Beyonce and Jay Z recently announced their "On the Run" tour, which is scheduled to take them to 16 cities this summer.sillycontents.blogspot.com

Sevilla win Europa League final

Sevilla defended doggedly in a 0-0 draw before beating Benfica 4-2 on penalties to win the Europa League for the third time on Wednesday as the final curse of Bela Guttmann continued to haunt the Portuguese side.

Beaten 2-1 at the death by Chelsea in the same game 12 months ago, Benfica slumped to their eighth successive European final loss, putting a dampener on what had been a triumphant season.

Benfica had the best of the opening 90 minutes but failed to take their chances and the confidence seemed to ooze away from them in extra-time.

The writing appeared to be on the wall when Sevilla won the toss before the penalties and chose the end in front of their fans.

Paraguay striker Oscar Cardozo, who has had an unhappy season and missed a penalty for his country in the 2010 World Cup quarterfinal against Spain, took a stuttering run-up before Benfica's second penalty was saved by Beto.

Beto also stopped Benfica's next spot-kick, a half-hearted Rodrigo effort, although the Sevilla goalkeeper appeared to move well off his line on each occasion.

Kevin Gameiro then fired home Sevilla's fourth to clinch their third Europe League/Uefa Cup title.

"In the end, they (Benfica) were pushing forward more as we were tired and all the games that we have played this season took their toll," Sevilla coach Unai Emery said.

"However, we have learnt to fight and cope with the difficult moments and we came out on top."

Benfica's losing run is often referred to as the "curse of Bela Guttmann", the Hungarian coach who led them to successive European Cups in 1961 and 1962.

On leaving the club in acrimonious circumstances, Guttmann said they would never win another European title without him.

"We were better but in football, the best team doesn't alwsillycontents.blogspot.comays in," Benfica coach Jorge Jesus said.

"We had the more chances over 120 minutes but we didn't take them."

Sevilla, playing their 19th match in this season's competition, gave Benfica an early scare when Vitolo cut the ball back to Carlos Bacca and Guilherme Siqueira dived in to intercept.

CRUNCHING TACKLE

Benfica lost midfielder Miralem Sulejmani who injured his shoulder in a crunching tackle by Alberto Moreno.

Although the two sets of fans made a wall of noise each end, there were nearly 6 000 empty seats at the Juventus stadium, with an official attendance of just over 33 000.

The first half was often scrappy and niggly as Sevilla managed to blunt Benfica's attacking edge.

Beto was called into action twice in quick succession before the break, first to stop an Maxi Pereira lob after the Uruguayan got in behind the Sevilla defence and then to block a Rodrigo effort after he burst down the right.

Benfica, who have won the Portuguese League and League Cup and will attempt to complete a domestic treble on Sunday in the Cup final, should have gone ahead soon after the re-start.

Pereira set up Lima who had a shot blocked off the line by Nicolas Pareja was also blocked.

Pereira then set up another chance for Lima when he got in behind the Sevilla defence and this time the Brazilian forward completely missed his kick.

Lima nearly grabbed a late winner with a dipping long-range effort which Beto just managed to turn over the crossbar.

Benfica failed to carry the momentum into extra-time and Sevilla nearly went ahead when Ivan Rakitic sent Bacca clear down the right but the Colombian fired his just over the bar.

Gameiro fired into the side-netting in the second half of extra-time after another break down the right. By that time, fatigue had crept in, the pace had slowed and the game was littered with mistakes.

Welcome to HENRY OKERE's Official Blog Page: Death toll in Turkish mine blast exceeds 200, many still trapped

Welcome to HENRY OKERE's Official Blog Page: Death toll in Turkish mine blast exceeds 200, many still trapped

Death toll in Turkish mine blast exceeds 200, many still trapped

(Reuters) - Rescuers pulled more dead and injured from a coalmine in western Turkey on Wednesday more than 19 hours after an explosion, bringing the death toll to 205 in what could become the nationsillycontents.blogspot.com

's worst ever mining disaster.

Hundreds more were still believed to be trapped in the mine in Soma, about 480 kilometers (298 miles) southwest of Istanbul. The explosion, which triggered a fire, occurred shortly after 3 pm (1200 GMT) on Tuesday.

"We are heading towards this accident likely being the deadliest ever in Turkey," Energy Minister Taner Yildiz told reporters at the scene.

Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan declared three days of national mourning.

The disaster highlighted Turkey's poor record on worker safety and drew renewed opposition calls for an inquiry into a drop in safety standards at previously state-run mines. The International Labour Organization ranked the EU candidate nation third worst in the world for worker deaths in 2012.

Yildiz said the fire was still burning underground, which miners said was hampering the rescue operation and denting hopes of finding more survivors. A pall of smoke hung above the area.

The blast happened during a shift change, leading to uncertainty over the exact numbers of miners trapped inside. Yildiz earlier said 787 workers were in the mine at the time and that the death toll may rise further.

"I have to say that our hopes are dimming in terms of the rescue efforts," he said.

Rescue workers pumped oxygen into the mine to try to keep those trapped by the blaze alive, as thousands of family members and co-workers gathered outside the town's hospital. Many of the dead had suffered carbon monoxide poisoning, Yildiz said.

Some 93 people were rescued, including several rescuers, and 85 of them were being treated for their injuries, the Disaster and Emergency Management Presidency said in an email.

One relative told broadcaster CNN Turk that his 15-year-old nephew was among workers still trapped inside the shaft.

PROTESTS

A cold storage warehouse, usually used for food, and freezer trucks served as makeshift morgues as hospital facilities overflowed. Medical staff intermittently emerged from the hospital to read the names of survivors being treated inside, with families and fellow workers clamoring for information.

Teams of psychiatrists were being pulled together to help counsel the families of victims. Paramilitary police guarded the entrance to the mine to keep distressed relatives at a safe distance from the rescue effort.

There were calls on social media for protests in front of the Istanbul headquarters of Soma Komur Isletmeleri, the operator of the mine. The company said in a brief statement late on Tuesday that there had been "a grave accident" caused by an explosion in a substation but gave few other details.

Erdogan cancelled a visit to Albania, scheduled for Wednesday, and is instead going to the site of the disaster, his office said. President Abdullah Gul also cancelled a trip to China scheduled for Thursday in order to travel to Soma.

At Istanbul's Taksim Square, two left-wing opposition newspaper vendors read out headlines to silent morning commuters. "Turkey is a graveyard for workers", and "This wasn't an accident, this was negligence."

POOR RECORD

Turkey's rapid growth over the past decade has seen a construction boom and a scramble to meet soaring energy demands, with worker safety standards often failing to keep pace.

Its safety record in coal mining has been poor for decades, with its deadliest accident to date in 1992, when a gas blast killed 263 workers in the Black Sea province of Zonguldak.

The Labour Ministry said late on Tuesday its officials had carried out regular inspections at the Soma mine, most recently in March, and that no irregularities had been detected.

But Hursit Gunes, a deputy from the main opposition Republican People's Party, said a previous request for a parliamentary inquiry into safety and working conditions at mines around Soma had been rejected by the ruling AK Party.

"I'm going to renew that parliamentary investigation demand today. If (the government) has been warned about this and they did nothing, then people will be angry, naturally. The opposition warned them. But there's unbelievable lethargy on this issue," Gunes told Reuters.

The ILO in 2012 said Turkey had the highest rate of worker deaths in Europe and the world's third-highest. In the mining sector, 61 people died in 2012, according to the ILO's latest statistics. Between 2002 and 2012, the death toll at Turkish mines totaled more than 1,000.
