Lazio threaten legal action after claims that teenage star is actually in his 40s

Lazio were forced to release official documents and threaten legal action to prove a youth team player was still a teenager and not in his 40s.

Joseph Marie Minala, 17, came in for abuse on social networking sites after releasing a picture showing him looking much older than his teenage years. Quotes also appeared in Senegalese media that said Minala was 41.

The Italian club and Minala’s agent rubbished claims that he was a cheat, producing the paper work to prove he was the correct age.

He said: ‘I have read the alleged statements posted on the website senego.net in which it says I confessed my real age which was different to what was stated in my [official] documents.

‘They are false statements that have been attributed to me by people who do not know.’

Minala has had to block photos on his Instagram account and delete his Facebook profile because of the abuse he got over the pictures.

Defence: Minala’s agent said the player looks older because of a ‘difficult’ childhood

 

Storm: He was forced to delete his Instagram and Facebook accounts, but remains on Twitter

 

His agent, Diego Tavano, told Italian newspaper La Gazzetta dello Sport: ‘He had a difficult time growing up. If you talk to him you’ll realise he is in every way a 17-year-old lad.’

Minala still has a Twitter account and after the age storm sent the following message: ‘Envy is the weakness of man, and those with a poor soul hurt others when you are in Serie A. Love you! Forza Lazio.’

Sarah Palin Throws Chris Christie Far Under The Bus – Runs Over Him a Few Times

Oh wow, just wow!

Sarah Palin answered a few questions about Chris Christie on Tuesday, and to hear the quitter from Alaska say it, Christie’s claim that he knew nothing about what was happening under his own nose is just about impossible. In an interview with Inside Edition, Palin held Christie by the back of his pants waist and with a swing, tossed the governor under the bus.

“When I was mayor and manager of this city, and then governor of the state, certainly you know what your top aides are up to.”

The New York Daily News thought this statement was a tad bit disingenuous, considering the fact that she claimed ignorance when she dealt with her bit of office scandal better known as Troopergate. The News explained Troopergate:

Palin caught heat for firing Alaska Commissioner of Public Safety Walt Monegan in July 2008, allegedly because he refused to fire State Trooper Mike Wooten.

Palin, her family and aides reportedly had pressured Monegan, a member of Palin’s Cabinet, to get rid of Wooten, who was divorced from Palin’s sister Molly McCann.

Obamacare Good News – Millions More Enrolled, Lowest Uninsured Rate in 5 Years

The Obama administration on Wednesday released its monthly update on health insurance enrollment under the Affordable Care Act. Nearly 3.3 million Americans enrolled in private health plans through Obamacare’s state and federal marketplaces from October through February 1, with 1.1 million signing up in January alone. The data comes on the same day that a Gallup survey found that the U.S. uninsurance rate has hit a five-year low:

“We’re seeing a healthy growth in enrollment,” said Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Kathleen Sebelius in a conference call with reporters. According to Sebelius, an additional 6.6 million Americans have been deemed eligible for Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Plan (CHIP) during the first four months of the open enrollment period.

New Report: Corporate Welfare Turns Rich People into Lazy Moochers

Contrary to conventional wisdom, tax breaks and corporate welfare structures turn the ultra-rich into lazy moochers, and not motivated corporate citizens.

By monitoring the daily lives of CEOs heading America’s largest tax dodgers, the Society for Motivated Americans (SMA) was able to conclude that extreme corporate welfare benefits make the super-rich lazy and complacent.

“Most of them spend an inordinate amount of time hobnobbing in lavish resorts and playing Candy Crush on corporate jets,” said Jeff Zebo of SMA.

Zebo provided Bank of America CEO Brian Moynihan as a prime example. BOA is the nation’s leading tax dodger, having paid zero taxes in 2010 – a $1.9 billion tax break – after receiving more than a trillion dollars in bailout money. “Has this made Moynihan motivated?” asked Zebo. “No – the man can barely pay attention on the job. And he sleeps all the time – employees sometimes stumble into his office and find him face down on the desk mumbling about things like milk shakes and Aruba.”

Zebo cited Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein as another prime example. Goldman Sachs is the second-largest recipient of corporate welfare, paying zero in taxes in 2010 despite profits of $2.3 billion. “He sits around his mansion most days eating chips, drinking Belgian beer and taking conference calls in a bathrobe while secretly playing Call of Duty,” said Zebo. “And when he’s forced to leave his house, it’s clear he just wants back on his couch.”

According to the SMA study, such examples are rampant in the corporate community, blowing apart the long-held notion (among the super-rich and Republicans) that tax breaks make the one percent motivated to further produce.

Clarence Thomas Laments – “Liberals” Were Mean To Me, Not Southern Racists

When you’re a Supreme Court Justice, racism is not something you generally deal with and it is usually not directed to you. So when Justice Clarence Thomas spoke to a group on Tuesday, telling them that racism is more prevalent now than when he was a youngster growing up in a segregated south, you have to not only consider the message, but also the messenger.

The message, that an atmosphere where the KKK ruled, where blacks were never considered equal but subservient to whites, an atmosphere where regular lynchings, bombings, beatings and killings of men, women and children took place because of race, and where a justice and political system neglected to serve these people because of their skin color; to say that atmosphere was preferable to Justice Clarence is in itself bogus and utterly unbelievable.

Here is some of the nonsense the Supreme Court Justice said at the event in Palm Beach Atlantic University in West Palm Beach Florida.

“My sadness is that we are probably today more race and difference-conscious than I was in the 1960s when I went to school. To my knowledge, I was the first black kid in Savannah, Georgia, to go to a white school. Rarely did the issue of race come up. Now, name a day it doesn’t come up. Differences in race, differences in sex, somebody doesn’t look at you right, somebody says something. Everybody is sensitive. If I had been as sensitive as that in the 1960s, I’d still be in Savannah. Every person in this room has endured a slight. Every person. Somebody has said something that has hurt their feelings or did something to them — left them out.

That’s a part of the deal.

But this is how and where you can tell that Clarence Thomas is full of sh… the waste matter that discharge from the body. The conservative Republican activist Supreme Court Judge blamed, get this, Liberals for today’s “race and difference” conscienceness, even saying that northern liberals treated his “the absolute worst” he’s ever been treated! Ever!

“The worst I have been treated was by northern liberal elites. The absolute worst I have ever been treated. The worst things that have been done to me, the worst things that have been said about me, by northern liberal elites, not by the people of Savannah, Georgia.”

Consider yourself lucky Mr. Thomas. You survived the apparent love, friendship and caring you received from a hateful segregated south that obviously saw your true potentials and decided to protect and nurture you. But there were many more who suffered, many more who hung from trees, were beaten, were forced to sit at the back of buses and thrown in jails if they even thought about sitting up front. There were many more, some who went to church as little girls and never saw the light of day again because those loving folks who were so great to you, bombed the building.

Many sacrifice their lives in those dark days Mr. Thomas. Days that you apparently thought were filled with peaches and creme. And maybe you should instead thank them for their sacrifice. Chances are, those sacrifices paved the road you traveled, a road that led you all the way to the Supreme Court of the United States.

What Did Jon Stewart Say About Michael Sam’s Coming Out? – Video

A couple of days ago, college football star Michael Sam pronounced to the world that he was gay. Before Sam came out, his NFL prospects were extremely high, but since telling his ‘secret,’ people have already began forming their opinions on the player based on his sexual lifestyle.

So I ask…

What? You formed an opinion about Michael Sam without first hearing what Jon Stewart had to say?

How dare You!?!

This Woman Legally Changed Her Name to ‘Sexy’

Sexy Ranea Crabtree with her husband James Crabtree

She changed her name to reflect her personality… sexy… okay…

NEWARK, Ohio — A central Ohio woman who loathed being named Sheila and wanted a moniker that reflected her personality has legally changed her first name to Sexy.

A judge approved the request Tuesday from the 41-year-old Pataskala woman, formerly named Sheila Ranea Crabtree.

In her application, Crabtree called her given name “the ugliest one out there.” She says that if the court didn’t allow the switch to Sexy, she’d try to become known legally by her middle name, which she has used for years.

The Columbus Dispatch reports that Crabtree told a judge that her husband and teenage daughters approve of the change. When the judge asked why she chose Sexy, Crabtree said she’s fun and free-spirited and thought the change would make her complete.

MSNBC’s Krystal Ball Gives Republicans More Artillery Against Hillary Clinton – Video

Since MSNBC quickly apologized to RRRReince Priebus and the Republicans for a… tweet, it seems that the folks at MSNBC have bent over backwards to please the GOP. I know getting Republicans on their station is considered necessary for the political station, but come on! This azz kissing is getting rediculous!

On today’s “The Cycle” show, Krystal Ball did Republicans a favor by pointing out some other areas of Hillary Clinton’s life where Republicans could attack when they’re ready. Yes, Hillary Clinton has been around a long time and there are many things about her Republicans can attack. But because they’re incapable of doing basic research, the only thing they’ve come up with so far is that Bill Clinton did something with Monica Lewinsky. So today on the MSNBC show, co-host Krystal Ball laid out a few more points of attack I’m sure Republicans will gladly consider.

Share your thoughts Krystal…

It is clear now that we have two economies: one for a thin slice of educated elite and one for everyone else. That is the moment we are in now. So I ask you, does Hillary Clinton sound to you like the right person for this moment?

In a time when corporations have hijacked our politics enabling them to reap all the profit without feeling any compunction to do right by their workers, is someone who sat on the rabidly anti-union board of Walmart for six years the right person to restore worker’s rights?

In a time when we are still reeling from a global financial disaster brought on by foolhardy bank deregulation, is someone who recently took $400,000 to give two speeches at Goldman Sachs the person we need to wrest control of the asylum back from the banking inmates?

Keep in mind that at those paid speeches, Clinton wasn’t giving tough love to these masters of the universe. On the contrary, she said that “the banker-bashing…was unproductive and indeed foolish.” Of course, it was her husband, former President Bill Clinton, who did much of the deregulating that got us into trouble including ending the Glass-Steagall prohibitions on mixing traditional banking with speculative investment banking.

More to the point though, in a time when we badly need to be inspired, rallied, and made to believe that America can once again be true to the American dream, we desperately need someone who is mission driven. We need someone who is clearly passionate, who is living and breathing and feeling in their bones the plight of the worker and the middle class, and who is unafraid to stand up to the Wall Street titans. That person is not Hillary Clinton. It is Elizabeth Warren.

Okay, so I like Elizabeth Warren too and I would vote for her if she decides to run for president. But so far, Mrs Warren has said that she has no intention of running. So what is Krystal and MSNBC doing here? They’re providing a loaded gun to the enemy and  any day now, Republicans will start shooting.
