European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Cardiff Vs Manchester United (2 - 2) On 24th Nov 2013 by Irises(op): 1:49am On Nov 24, 2013
Manchester United will be looking to continue a nine-match unbeaten run in all
competitions at Cardiff on Super Sunday.
Having stabilised their season prior to the international break, United will be looking to
maintain the momentum in the 4pm kick-off, which is live on Sky Sports 1HD.
However, the excitement Ryan Giggs might feel at the chance of representing United in his
home town for the first time will be tempered by the fitness concerns around the Red Devils'
camp.
Michael Carrick, meanwhile, has given the club a lift after extending
his United contract until the summer of 2015 on Friday.
And the visitors will be full of confidence having beaten league
leaders Arsenal 1-0 at Old Trafford and won 3-1 at Fulham on their
last away day.
Malky Mackay's men won their last home game, with Steven Caulker
earning a 1-0 derby win over Swansea - but their morale took a hit
following a 2-0 defeat by Paul Lambert's Aston Villa outfit in their last
outing.
Paul Merson's prediction
I don't think David Moyes can afford to rest any of his players. I
reckon Man City, Arsenal and Chelsea will all win this weekend and if Manchester United drop
points then they will slip further back in the title race and all the good work they did by beating
Arsenal two weeks ago will go out the window. This will be a difficult game for them, but I think
they will win it. The Cardiff City Stadium isn't the hardest place to go - I saw Tottenham go
there the other week and they could have scored 100 - and Cardiff haven't looked good in some
games, especially away from home. It all depends how long they can hold out.

SportsWestham Vs Chelsea 0 - 3 (lfull time) by Irises(op):
West Ham will be hoping for a repeat of last season's result in this fixture when they face
Chelsea on Saturday, live on Sky Sports 1HD.
Juan Mata's goal gave Chelsea a half-time lead at Upton Park last term, but Carlton Cole
equalised before Mohamed Diame struck a second and Modibo Maiga hit a third.
Jose Mourinho will be wary of a repeat, particularly after being less than impressed by
Chelsea's performance in the 2-0 defeat at Newcastle at the start of the month.
The Portuguese coach has happy history of facing Hammers boss Sam Allardyce. It was at the
Reebok Stadium against Allardyce's Bolton that Mourinho led Chelsea to the club's first
championship in 50 years in 2005.
Frank Lampard scored both goals that day, but the former Hammer
can expect a frosty reception on his old stomping ground following
his move from east to west London in 2001.
Chelsea are on a two-game winless run in the league after the
Newcastle defeat and controversial 2-2 draw with West Brom last time
out, while West Ham will be looking to bounce back from their 3-1
humbling at the hands of Chris Hughton's Norwich.
Paul Merson's prediction
Chelsea have had a couple of bad results against Newcastle and West
Brom, which you can put down to complacency, but they are still
there or thereabouts in the title race. I expect them to get back to
winning ways in this game because I can't see how West Ham are
going to hurt them. They put all their eggs in one basket with Andy
Carroll and then he got injured, which has been a big blow.
The worrying thing for Sam Allardyce is that they've been playing fairly well and yet are right
down the bottom, but they should be okay in the long run. I can't see them getting anything
from this game though.

FamilyKidnapped: Wife And Son Of PDP Cheiftain Abducted In Bayelsa by Irises(op): 9:52am On Nov 23, 2013
Yet-to-be-identified gunmen kidnapped the wife and son of Chief Gbalipre Turner, the state
treasurer of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Bayelsa state.
They were abducted from their family home in Opume, Ogbia Local Government Area. The
develpment was confirmed by the Bayelsa Police Command.
The kidnappers are yet to make contact with the family.
The PDP chieftain is the younger brother of King Amalate Turner, the Obanema of Opume
Kingdom.
It is to be noted that President Goodluck Jonathan hails from Ogbia, where a sister of one of his
aides, Oronto Douglas, faced a similar fate last month.

CelebritiesTiwa Savage And Tee Billz To Wed Today, 23rd November by Irises(op):
Sexy songstress Tiwa Savage will tomorrow, 23 November, take a big step into matrimony as
she will get married to her hearthrob, Tunji ‘Tee Bliz’ Balogun.
The much-publicised traditional wedding will be holding at the Arc Event Centre, Lekki, Lagos,
the same venue that hosted top dignitaries that came for Peter Okoye (half of PSquare) and
Lola Omotayo’s wedding.
It was learnt that the strictly-by-invitation wedding is being planned to be a one-of-its-kind
wedding.
It is being put together by popular events planner, Funmi Victor-Okigbo, with Joyce Jacob doing
the bride’s make-up.
Juju music legend King Sunny Ade will lead select A-list artistes that will be on the bandstand.
Tiwa and her beau had announced their engagement on 5 February (Tiwa’s birthday) when Tunji
made a formal proposal to her.
The romantic moment was witnessed by a few celebrity friends, including Don Jazzy, boss of
Tiwa’s label, Mavin Records; Dr Sid, Banky W and Tolu Oniru.
Last week Saturday, the bride-to-be’s friends had hosted her to a bachelorette party at a
highbrow lounge in Victoria Island, Lagos.
“Tunji is an exceptional man. We’ve worked together and we trust each other.
So, I am not scared that anything negative will come up between us,” Tiwa told said in an
earlier interview about her man.
Their white wedding has been slated to hold early next year in one of the European countries.

god_of_music: I just did a flashback on my secondary school days when i was a senior with an official post. I was the 'Cultural and Game prefect' then. . .
It was fun being a senior mheen! grin
And i was a really cunny and controversial one. cheesy

My punishments at times were irrelevant but the juniors couldn't do anything about it tongue

These are some of them:
>>>
I flogged a junior because he looked at me two times: The kid was just passing by and 'naturally' he just looked at the direction i was sitting, and then looked again. I called him and asked him why he was looking at me with bad eyes? grin And he was like: No o! Senior i'm not looking at you like that oo shocked
I asked him to go buy a cain in the school shop for me. . He came back with the cain and i asked him to put his hands on the wall, he did...then i trashed him 7 times grin grin
The guy cried to the class grin grin grin

I punished a student because he was taller than me: I entered into the JSS3 class and i noticed this boy who was way taller than me, i thought it was an insult so i asked him to come out of the class. He came out, and i slapped him before i trashed him mercileslly grin grin tongue

I punished a student because he was wearing the same shoes like mine: This one pissed me off! angry The guy was just in JSS1 and he wore the same shoe with me! I ceased the shoes and asked him to pick all the stones in a particular area under the hot sun tongue tongue

I punished a female student cause her voice was finer than mine: In the school choir, i was the director and she was just a member. She was in SS1 tho. . . She was given the solo in a song we were to present in the state capital, and i was actually given that role but her voice was just so fine angry
Since that day i ask her to stand ontop her locker whenever i'm in the class. grin

More coming. . . .

Say yours!! cheesy

SportsMichel Platini Wants Forty Teams At The World Cup To Make Room For African teams by Irises(op): 3:37pm On Nov 22, 2013
Michel Platini will push for the World Cup finals to be expanded from 32
to 40 teams and is confident Fifa will back what would be the most
significant change to the tournament in two decades.
Fifa president Sepp Blatter last week called for more African and Asian
representation at football’s biggest event, something that was widely
regarded as a call for the number of European teams to be cut.
But Uefa counterpart Platini has turned the argument on its head by
revealing he wants to add eight countries to the mix, two from Africa, two
from Asia, two from North and Central America, one from Oceania and
one from Europe.
The Frenchman claimed his proposal, which would see the group stages
expanded from eight groups of four to eight groups of five from the 2018
event in Russia, would only extend the current 31-day tournament by three
days and would be “good for everybody”.
Platini told The Times: “I totally agree with Mr Blatter that we need more
African and Asian [countries]. But instead of taking away some European,
we have to go to 40 teams. We can add two African, two Asiatic, two
American, one Oceania and one from Europe.”

HealthTaking Mentos With Coke Or Pepsi Leads To Death by Irises(op): 10:24am On Nov 22, 2013
Do not drink coke and
have mentos, the
mixture will cause a
chemical reaction and
form cyanide causing
your stomach to
explode.
Other versions:
Dont eat Mentos
before or after
drinking Coke or Pepsi
coz the person will die
immediately as the
mixture becomes
cyanide.. Please fwd
to whom u care
A mixture of Mentos
and Coca cola killed
two Brazilian children.
Hoax or Fact:
Mixture of hoax and facts.
Analysis:
There have been many messages and videos like these
warning not to eat Mentos before or after drinking Coke or
Pepsi, especially with Diet Coke, claiming that the mixture will
generate a chemical reaction forming Cyanide, which will
ultimately explode your stomach. Some messages also claim
that two Brazilian children died because of this adverse
reaction of Mentos with Coca Cola. However, the facts are
completely different.
It is a
fact
that when you put a Mentos in a Coke/Pepsi or any other
carbonated drink bottle, like shown in some videos, it causes
the soft drinks to fizz heavily. And when there is any small
opening in the bottle, the pressure built up because of this
fizzing can indeed shoot up the drink into air, 'similar' to an
explosion. This happens because the Mint (Menthol) flavor of
Mentos produces rapid foam and the numerous small pores
on the Mentos' surface induce the release of cardon dioxide
form the soda drink, when it comes in contact with the drink.
This sudden increase in surface tension of the liquid releases
the fizzing carbon dioxide of carbonated drink like a rapid
explosion. But the point to be noted here is, this is NOT a
chemical reaction, it is simply a physical reaction. This Mentos
eruption was observed to be more in case of Diet Coke,
because of its brown color - the potassium benzoate,
aspartame, and CO2 gas contained in the Diet Coke, which
combine with the gelatin and gum arabic ingredients of the
Mentos, contributing to form excess foam.
Therefore, the message saying that eating Mentos before or
after drinking Coke or Pepsi causes a chemical reaction inside
your body, forms cyanide or results in fatal explosion is a
certain hoax. Like mentioned in the message, there were no
such deaths reported. There have been many real and fake
videos showing this Mentos eruption with Diet Coke and other
carbonated drinks. The video on right is a news report that
shows how people made such explosions.
However, it is also important NOT to try and experiment this
Mentos eruption effect with a handful of Mentos after drinking
coca cola or pepsi, like few people have done it in the past
and certainly got hurt as a result of the intense reaction. If
you are doing any kind of this adventure, the intense gas and
foam developed inside can gush out through your mouth in a
very uncomfortable way, and it might even risk your digestive
system. You might want to watch this adverse reaction in the
reference section, but here is a warning again NOT to try it.

Technology MarketTop 10 Most Expensive Motorcycles In The World With Pictures. by Irises(op): 8:51am On Nov 22, 2013
Confederate's $80,000 Black Flag is one seriously pricey bike, but
it's far from the most expensive.
Number ten on our list of the most expensive motorcycles in the
world is the Black Flag's stablemate, the Confederate B120 Wraith.
It may not boast the most killer performance (125 hp from an air-
cooled twin), but the U.S.-built Wraith's assemblage of aircraft
grade billet aluminum and carbon fiber make it a force to be reckoned with in area of eye-
popping design.

nobody said all the players from u17 should be promoted. but atleast one. forget about u17, we all know that they are all between ages of 20. so if we include iheanacho in the senoir team, it will boost the team's morale. imagin his passes are better than that of ideye and oduamadi. dont fotget dat rooney was 17 when he played for the senoir team. dont use age to judge the players, those boys are stars and they can beat losotho senoir team well. u can imagine the shot from iheanacho, he will be a threat to goalkeepers. he can be used as a substitute, no problem. but i tink he should join the senoir team

SportsWorld Cup Play Offs : Uruguay Vs Jordan By 12am by Irises(op):
Uruguay will host Jordan in the second leg of the World Cup qualifiers on Wednesday.
While a great deal has been made of Mexico's tremendous 5-1 win at home over New Zealand,
few have taken the time to notice Uruguay's achievement against an arguably superior foe. In
the opening leg, Uruguay went to Amman and stunned the home fans with a 5-0 win.
Uruguay has been terrific at home in the qualifiers
and has proven to be a stingy side in Montevideo.
The team conceded nine goals in eight matches at home; in 16 qualifiers, Uruguay conceded a
horrific 25 goals. Moreover, Uruguay has not lost at home in the World Cup qualifiers to this
point; Uruguay has not conceded more than two goals in any match during the tournament.
In order for New Zealand to qualify, it would have to put up a 5-0 scoreline to force extra time.
Only with a 6-0 win would Jordan be able to move on to next summer's tournament.
At this point, that result is unlikely at best. The only real mystery at this point is whether Luis
Suarez will score the goal that would make him the scoring leader in all of the qualifiers. He is
currently tied with likes of Deon McCaulay and Robin Van Persie for most goals in the
tournament with 11; Van Persie achieved the feat in 10 matches, while McCaulay in eight games
against such teams as Montserrat, Guatemala, Grenada and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines.
Suarez has scored 11 in 16 matches thus far and failed to tally in the 5-0 win over jordan
