PoliticsRe: Yar’adua Returns To Work Next Week - Associates by agabaI23(m): 2:39am On Mar 23, 2010
Gwura Gwura is far gone

Written by Saharareporters, New York
Monday, 22 March 2010 18:36
A medical source familiar with Umaru Yar’adua’s dire health condition has told Saharareporters that the syndicated media reports claiming that Yar’adua would resume work next week “is a complete hoax.” The reports, which were carried by Daily Trust and The Nation newspapers, painted a generous portrait of Yar’adua’s supposed recuperation and his alleged plans to return to work next week. The Daily Trust report made ridiculous claims that Yar’adua had regained strength and was walking around in the gardens surrounding the presidential villa.

“It’s bunkum,” said our source.

Other politically connected sources in Abuja told Saharareporters that Yar’adua’s condition was so bad that even members of the kitchen cabinet, including Tanimu Yakubu Kurfi, have given up hopes of his return. Mr. Tanimu Kurfi, who served as Yar’adua’s chief economic advisor, spent last weekend in Kaduna. An associate who spoke to him described his mood as “downcast,” adding that Kurfi had come to terms with the fact “that his days of influence as a member of Yar’adua’s inner circle are over.”

Yar’adua’s mother and other relatives have called on his wife, Turai, to let him return to Katsina to recuperate as much as it is possible. A source close to Yar’adua’s relatives told Saharareporters that Umaru Yar’adua’s mother was furious that Turai has resisted all entreaties “to let Yar’adua make a dignified exit from power.”

A highly placed security source told Saharareporters that the latest hoax about Yar’adua’s return was part of a scheme by Turai and other die-hard loyalists of Yar’adua to force more concessions from acting President Goodluck Jonathan as he reconstitutes the federal cabinet. Mr. Jonathan dissolved the cabinet last week and is in the process of lining up a new cabinet.

“Turai and her group want to have a larger say about who gets appointed into the cabinet,” said a source. “They want to ensure that, whatever happens, their interests remain protected, if not paramount,” the source added.

As Saharareporters earlier reported, Jonathan had offered Mrs. Yar’adua the opportunity to nominate candidates for five ministerial slots as well as a special assistant position. Unsatisfied, the greedy “First Lady” has reportedly demanded that she receive 10 ministerial positions. In addition, she is also insisting that she and her group be allowed to choose who occupies some of the juiciest ministerial positions. She has also insisted that former Minister of Information, Dora Akunyili, should not be on the list of new ministers.

Cristalz,

Aristotle more of a philosopher than a physicist.

You second epistle was obviously too long for a dullard to comprehend. You would have made it simple. However i tried my best.
With this statement, ''he would have fallen a long way before getting into the box''
Why would Valencia fall ''a long way'' outside the box due to sudden release when you just agreed the release happened halfway in the box??
You getting confused??
Sorry I would have made it simpler for you to understand. My point was
1. Masch's strong tug on Val was far outside the box
2. Masch's strong tug on Val ended outside the box
3. Masch's strong tug on  Val which was blamed for his reactional jerk ended outside the box so that the momentum generated by the reaction disipated outside the box. if he was gonna fall due to the sudden release, he would have fallen outside the box not inside.
4. Val generated the extra momentum with which he dived into the box.
5. Minimal force of masch's was as result of struggling contact no longer a tug.
6. I circled for you the contact point moments before he submerged.
Cristalz:
Gosh.  .  .really, that was in the heat of the moment. grin


I hope I didn't cut my dear Agaba too deep.  .  .too much of Dexter Morgan in my system. grin
Sweetie no you did not. I had to fly to Ipswich for a party. I would have replied long ago.

Critalz,

All those letting go abrubtly claim does not show in the picture posted by your friend.

If the backward force was equal to the forward force, then Valencia would be standing still not moving
That picture there however showed that when he was halway into the box, Masc had minimal force on him. in other words if he was falling because of abrupt release, he would have fallen a long way before getting into the box. But he had a penalty in mind and made most of it.

Sauron
This is not about a red, it is about where the foul was commited. He was fouled outside the box. His moment was alreadly destroyed by the time he fell down as a result of the tugg outside the box.

And the pixture you posted shows masch's hand was in no way strained to support the sudden release theory.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Manchester United Fan Thread! We Are The Red Devils! by agabaI23(m): 7:52pm On Mar 22, 2010
Look at the direction of the force and the oreintation of your diver at the point. Look at the angular strain between the hands and the Vals inclination before he dived.
tell me the guy was still holding him and it was a reactional jerk.

I am sure you score f9 in physics!

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=374223.msg5745027#msg5745027 date=1269282464]You are a miserable sod!!!

You are a simpleton!
Laws of physics actually say Valencia(bursting with pace) will jerk forward after being held back for a while and released all of a sudden.
When a car is accelerating and the driver slams on the brakes, what happens to the passengers? They jerk forward which was what happened to Valencia. Use your God-given common sense for once.[/quote]Was he actually released? I thought he was tugged down?

Well you just said he would  jerk foward not fall down. Valency or Valencia was tugged and released outside the box and jerked into the box and dived. That is a good expalantion.

Cristalz:
Okay, I wasn't gonna post for the next few hours but I just have to reply this nansense!

Mascherano tugged Valencia's hand outside the box, and kept tugging till Valencia was halfway in the box before he let go.
Heck, by then the dude had lost his balance and he fell.

At first I also thought it was an outside-the-box foul, but at half time it was analysed in extreme slow motion.  .  .that's when I (and everyone else with a fully functional football brain) saw he was half way in before Masch let go, which makes Webb's call legit.

No apologies - what you typed up there is complete and utter cow shyte.
Falling backwards, abi forward, diving.  .  .damn. That post is completely thoughtless. You probably watched it on your pc via some terribly slow connection.
Honestly, a lot of people need to go re-watch the match.
You have not actually disproved anything. You have only rambled. Tell me  he would fall over like that if he was being tugged by someone who wanted to kill him. If he was losing his balance the direction of the tug was pointing backwards not forward. He should have falling backward not plunging into the box. Look at his stride and tell me what was in his mind the moment he noticed a tug. I forgot you analysed it with your football mind which equates with cheating mind.
Howard webb looked at the lines man who had no opinion and he decided in favour of his favourite team.
BTW I was not asking for any apology. Stuff it inside . . . u know where.

Dr. Eastbay
Thanks for telling me what I know.

You however did not disagree with me. Did he tug Valencia? Yes! Inside the box? NO!  Outside the box? Yes! But immediately he noticed that Val was putting on his swimming trunks, macherano removed his hands and the diver did what he knew best.

He was tugging him and not pushing him, why did he not fall backward? That defies physics.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Manchester United Fan Thread! We Are The Red Devils! by agabaI23(m): 5:51pm On Mar 22, 2010
Mascherano was outside the box and fouled someone inside the box. he must be a magician.

Show me the contact that reulted in that heavy fall and i will show you a diver.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Manchester United Fan Thread! We Are The Red Devils! by agabaI23(m): 5:37pm On Mar 22, 2010
MOTD analyst called that penalty laughable. The last touch on the diver was outside the box and he decided to swim in the box. They said it was no penalty and i know some geeks here use their analysis as a point of reference.
