Borussia Dortmund Are Into The Champions League

Real 2    Karim Benzema 82, Garcia Sergio Ramos 88

Dortmund 0

Agg 3-4

Incessant pressure pays off in spectacular style! After the ball pingponged around the Dortmund box, Benzema showed a cool head to pull it back for Ramos, who smashed an unstoppable shot into the roof of the net from eight yards! The crowd erupts. Real aren't actually going to do it, are they?

Jose Mourinho criticised his defenders for not challenging Robert Lewandowski enough last week, and I think Sergio Ramos has taken that to heart - a few times already tonight he has nailed the Polish striker. As have a few of his team-mates - the forward must be thinking he's on a Lions tour.

Both sides were more determined not to lose it rather than win it. Caution was the first thing on everyone's minds. 0-0 was a true reflection on the game. The only thing that made it interesting was that there was so much riding on it. The quality at times was woeful."

Borussia Dortmund are into the Champions League! They thoroughly deserve their place even if they had to survive a late scare here, largely because of shoddy finishing prior to that. The Real crowd applaud their own team's effort and, perhaps, the vibrancy of the victors.

Police Arrest Cow Over Murder

The police at Sango Ota, Ogun State, southwest Nigeria, have arrested a cow following the killing of a 24-year old teenager identified as Azeez Salako at Ilata area of Ota, a suburb of Ogun State.

P.M.NEWS gathered that youths in Ilata Ota were planning to hold a carnival on Saturday 27 April, 2013 and there was an argument between some of the youths which led to a fight and one of the boys identified as Dayo broke a bottle which he used to stab Salako in the neck and he bled to death.

When the police arrived at the scene of the fracas everyone had fled leaving behind the cow bought for slaughter during the carnival and the police arrested the cow and took it to the station where it is currently being detained.

When PM NEWS visited Sango Area Command where the incident was reported, both the Area Commander ACP Titi Kayode and the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) in charge of Sango Division CSP Dibie were not available for comment.

However, a source at the station who confirmed the incident on condition of anonymity said the suspected killer is on the run as no arrest has been made.

“Both the Area Commander and the DPO are not around now. We are still investigating the matter as no arrest has been made. The person who was alleged to have stabbed the deceased is on the run. It is only the cow the youths wanted to use for the carnival that was brought from the scene,” said the source.

Family Tragedy: Why These Children May Not Live Up To Their 20th Birthday

Experts say four children: Tochukwu, 14, Ifeanyichukwu, 11, Vivian and Marvelous, born by the same parents, Mr. and Mrs. Zebulun Onyia-Eburuo, may not live long because of a genetic condition inherited from their parents, known as muscular dystrophy.

Diagnosis reveal that the type, afflicting the children, is Duchane muscular dystrophy. Muscular dystrophy has several types, depending on the part of the body under siege.

The condition has no cure while research shows that sufferers die before they attain the age of 19 or 20 years. The very lucky ones may live up to 30 years.

Due to wrong diagnosis, few cases have officially been reported in Nigeria. However, the condition is a rare disease.

Consultant Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgeon, National Orthupaedic Hospital, Igbobi, Lagos, Dr. Babalola Olatunji, speaking on the prevalence rate of the disease, said, "We have to appreciate the fact that one out of 3,500 live births usually has it. But, remember it is more commom for male population. We’re talking about one out of 3,500 male birth. For female-births, you multiply that by two, that’s about one in 7,000 live births.

"These are the characteristics: by five years, it starts manifesting, ten years later they’re found on wheelchairs. By 30 years, most of them are gone, that’s Duchane muscular dystrophy. It is more severe.

"Muscular dystrophy is a group of

Cristiano Ronaldo Cheats On His Girlfriend With Miss Bum Bum Brazil (PHOTO)

No wonder Cristiano Ronaldo didn't play well during Real Madrid vs Borussia Dortmund match on Wednesday April 24th (Real lost 4-1 to Dortmund)...he had sex two days before...lol.

Andressa Urach (pictured above right) is claiming the star footballer, who is in a serious relationship with Russian super model, Irina Shayk, slept with her in a £12,500-a-night Villa Magna hotel on Monday April 22nd. Andressa is 2013 Miss Bum Bum Brazil queen. She told The Sun UK that Cristiano got in touch with her after seeing her photos online, and had sex with her just a day after Ronaldo was pictured leaving a restaurant with Irina (pictured left).

Andressa said she took a taxi to the hotel that Monday and waited for Ronaldo at the Lobby. Ronaldo eventually arrived in a grey Audi R3 and parked in an underground car park before taking a private lift to his room, from where he texted her his room number. The beauty queen said the sex was great.

"It was incredible, his body's perfect, like a Greek god. He went on for hours and would not stop talking about my butt.'

Cristiano's girlfriend, Irina, is known as one of the world's top swimwear and lingerie models. Meaning her body is mad! Still he cheated on her. How much more us mere mortals!

Baga Mayhem: We Are Still Picking Corpes Of Women, Children In The Bush

Borno State is Nigeria’s self- acclaimed ‘Home of Peace’. That is the appellation. But you may not be wrong if you now describe it as ‘The Home of Ruins and Pieces’. The truth about the state is that it has become a theatre of a war unleashed by the Islamist group called Boko Haram. Insurgency has been the order of the day in the state, leaving in its trail bombings, shootings and deaths.

When the residents are lucky, the death toll is low, but sometimes it can be high. Some analysts blame the problem on the international borders with Chad, Niger and Cameroun which they believe is porous as to allow Islamic extremists from the countries to enter the state at will.

The Federal Government raised a military outfit under the aegis of the Joint Task Force (JTF) which it deployed to contain the Islamists. However, the efforts to abate the violence in the state have led to the JTF’s stand-off with the intransigent Islamists, claiming more lives. One of such incidents was

3 Reasons Your Food Is Making You Tired

The main reason you need to eat is for energy but have you ever noticed that after eating a plate of pasta you feel anything but energized? In fact, you may feel very sleepy and ready for a nap? This is a result of three factors, all of which lead to difficulty breathing, and a feeling of sleepiness.

1. Simple Carbohydrates 

Starches (pasta, rice, bread, potato chips, flour tortillas), sugar, or foods high in sugar (cookies, candy, and cakes) have a higher respiratory quotient than protein and healthy fats. Foods that have a higher respiratory quotient metabolize into carbon dioxide quickly. Carbon dioxide is the by-product which escapes your lungs as you exhale. Having high carbon dioxide in the body makes you feel weak and tired. Simpler carbohydrates have a higher respiratoryquotient, and therefore will make you feel less energized, weak, and tired. You should still consume complex carbohydrates for the many health benefits such as high fiber, vitamins, and minerals contained in these foods, but when choosing starchy foods always opt for the whole grain, whole wheat, whole oat, or whole corn option.



2. Foods High in Sodium 

Foods that are high in salt or are heavily processed increase water retention in the body giving you a heavy, fatigued feeling. Sodium is

Exclusive Interview: Sexual Harassment Drove Me Out of Nollywood - Mary Uranta

For star of Secret Mission, Mary Data Uranta, her first foray into Nollywood was unpalatable. When she started out as a green horn, it was not easy finding her feet in the industry because most times she ended up with people who were only interested in taking her to bed rather than exploiting her talent.

In an exclusive chat with The Entertainer, the actress opened up on her ordeal in the hands of film producers and declared that the sexual harassment was so much she decided to take a walk from Nollywood. That decision took her to the UK where she studied at the London School of Arts.
