BBA The Chase: Selly is head of house

SellySelorm (Selly) Ghalley is the new Head of the Rubies House after she won the Head of House task Friday.

For the Head of House task, Big Brother asked the housemates to lift and hold balloons in the air.

The last housemate who holds his balloon the longest, in a task meant to test their level of endurance, without bending the arms automatically won the task.

While the men in the house dropped their balloons, Selly and Sule were the last the last woman and man standing with their balloons high up.

Luckily for Selly, Big Brother picked her as Head of House over Sule. She therefore takes over from Nigeria’s Beverley as the new Head of House.

During the same task in the Diamond House, it was a tie between Betty and Huddah. Big Brother picked Betty as the new Head of House.

Selly, unfortunately, has a huge hurdle to cross before she can enjoy her reign as Head of House. She is up for possible eviction come Sunday.

This week, Selly, Natasha, Denzel, Betty and Huddah are up for possible eviction and one or two of the housemates could be packing their bags home after Sunday’s live eviction show.

Ghanaians can save Selly from possible eviction by voting for her via text, web or mobile site.

Sudan-Ghana World Cup qualifier venue changed

Ghana’s 2014 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Sudan has been moved to the Al Merreikh Stadium in Omdurman on 7 June.

The match was originally scheduled for the Khartoum Stadium on the same day but technical problems has caused the change in venue.

The Sudanese FA explained that the floodlights at the Khartoum Stadium, an artificial pitch, has developed a fault which resulted in their decision to change the venue.

This means the match will be played on a grass pitch. Ghana coach Kwesi Appiah has adjusted to the change and secured the national stadium in Addis Ababa which is also laid with natural grass.

FIFA has informed the Ghana Football Association about the latest development.

Meanwhile it has been confirmed the kick off is at 17hrs GMT (8pm local time in Sudan.

Futuristic High-Speed Tube Travel Could Take You From New York to Los Angeles in 45 Minutes

Traveling across the country or the world via any modern mode of transportation is a time-consuming affair. It can also be really annoying with the long lines, crying babies, armrest hogs, cramped space, etc. Would it not be the most awesome invention ever if some new type of transportation could cut that travel time significantly?
Get ready, because it may only be a few years from becoming a reality. A company called ET3 has plans in the works for the Evacuated Tube Transport, a high-speed transportation tube that uses magnetic levitation. The ETT can travel at speeds of up to 4,000 miles per hour, and each tube seats a maximum of six people and comes with a baggage compartment. How does it go so fast? It's airless and frictionless and could have you from New York to Los Angeles in 45 minutes, as opposed to the nearly five hours a direct flight would take. It could even have you depart from New York and be in Beijing in two hours.
The tubes would be set up like freeways to prevent crowding and traffic congestion problems. Plus, ET3 claims that passengers need not worry about feeling discomfort while traveling at such high speeds. The high velocity at which the tubes move is equal to 1G of force at top speed, which is similar to the force felt by someone traveling in a car on the freeway.
Daryl Oster, the founder and CEO of ET3, says that he got the idea for the tube transport system when he visited China back in the 1980s.
When and if the tubes make their debut in the next decade, they will initially be used to transport cargo, not people.

John Dumelo's Love Triangle Saga: Bull Dog Dares Anas Aremeyaw Anas

Bull Dog     Chief Executive of Bull Haus Entertainment, Bull Dog, has publicly challenged ace investigative Journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas to come out with whatever story he has on actor John Dumelo or forever hold his peace. Bull Dog, speaking on Etv’s Talk Showbiz stated categorically that Anas does not have anything on John Dumelo and that the journalist was only issuing empty threats and “false warnings”. The investigative journalist was reported to have posted on his Facebook wall that “Somebody should be whispering into John Dumelo’s ears that whereas it is fantastic idea to own a clothing line, it is not ideal to do that at the expense of a three month old baby and the mum. I may be forced to release some audio tapes on him on the saga. It is not fair to reap where you have not sown. If the matter is not put to rest in two weeks, I would release them for people to make their own judgment on the Australian issue.” Though Anas did not tell what exactly he had on Dumelo, the actor has swiftly given a response to the media and said he would make an official response to whatever story Anas was about to bring up even before the story reaches the public. Surprisingly, Bull Dog also has no idea what the contents of Anas’s story may be but he was emphatic in calling the bluff of the award winning investigative journalist: “Anas does not have anything on John Dumelo because if he did, he would have put it out there long ago. I’m sure whatever he has on Dumelo will be the relationship thing that we all know about because knowing John, he does not look like a fraudulent person. I’m very sure the tape Anas is talking about is going to be sexual and you know for the people in this business, it is normal.” NEWS-ONE can also state on authority that the story Anas claims to have on Dumelo includes an apparent fraud running into several thousands of American dollars and that Anas with his team have reached Dumelo over the matter. John Dumelo recently came under strong condemnation when his alleged wife Harrina Dembele popped up. The US based model, actress and nurse swore she was legally married to John and has a marriage certificate to show for it. Even though John Dumelo denied the whole thing, his alleged wife produced the marriage certificate which had he real names of John Dumelo, his real age and the real names of his parents. Interestingly after providing such incriminating evidence against John Dumelo, he still maintains that marriage certificate was used as props for a marriage scene in a new documentary he is currently shooting at different locations in different countries all over the world.   Dumelo     Source: NiiOgbameyTetteh (@Ogbameytetteh)/News-One

Real Madrid to sell stadium naming rights

Los Blancos' famous stadium could soon be known by a different name.

The Spanish giants announced a new sponsorship deal with Emirates on Thursday and will now be looking to find a suitable sponsor for their stadium

Real Madrid are considering selling the naming rights to the Santiago Bernabeu as they look for new ways to generate revenue.

The club announced on Thursday that Emirates will take Bwin's place as their new shirt sponsor from next season onwards.

The deal is believed to be worth €125 million for five campaigns, with club president Florentino Perez hailing the deal with the airline company.

"We want a strong Real Madrid and part of that comes through alliances with large companies. We are making this alliance with the world's most important airline and it is an alliance for the present and for the future," Perez said.

"Emirates become Real Madrid’s new main sponsor. Two global brands and two leading organisations. This is one of the club’s most important decisions. It is an honour to link the Emirates name to Real Madrid’s because they are a perfect partner and ally."

But los Blancos' thirst for financial investment will not stop there and the club are now searching for a suitable sponsor for the Santiago Bernabeu.

Clubs such as Bayern Munich (Allianz Arena), Borussia Dortmund (Signal Iduna Park), Arsenal (Emirates Stadium) and Manchester City (Etihad Stadium) have previously cashed in on the naming rights to their grounds and Madrid are pondering following in the footsteps of the aforementioned clubs.

However, the Liga giants are determined to make sure that the stadium's principal name will remain the Santiago Bernabeu because of its historical meaning for the fans.

Balotelli Was A Drug Dealer - Mafia Informant

RAGING Mario Balotelli fumed at a gangster's claims last night that he had sold drugs "as a joke". The madcap soccer star went into an online rage after learning a Mafia informant had linked him to mobsters. The ex-Man City forward was drawn into controversy after the supergrass gave evidence at a Mob money laundering trial. Armando De Rosa claimed the 22-year-old striker had sold drugs as “a joke” while in the company of senior gangsters. But in a furious denial on Twitter, Balotelli, who now plays for AC Milan said: ”Ah..so now I’m a drug dealer. “You should be ashamed. You are using my name just to publicise yourselves,” he wrote in a tweet aimed at prosecutors. Balotelli wrote on the social-networking site minutes after TV news reports emerged of De Rosa’s claims during a trial in Naples. He said the Italian forward was with the local Mafia known as the Camorra. De Rosa told the court: ”A friend called and said ’Would you like to see Balotelli’ who was in Scampia (area of Naples). I thought it was a joke but he asked me to come and see him at a syringe exchange he had. “Balotelli was there with members of the Russo and Amato-Pagano clams. “Among them was a lad who was a dealer, he had a bag with doses of cocaine and heroin. I remember that Balotelli watched as a few deals took place. Then for a joke he asked if he could do a sale. “So he handed a dose to the next client. I remember asking him if he had recognised Balotelli but he didn’t know what was happening or believe me.” Balotelli’s tweet was later removed from his account with Italian media saying club bosses forced him to take it down. However Balotelli fumed at one Naples TV station: "Your newsroom should be closed down. Unless you apologise you will sweat the tears of my mother.” Balotelli’s visit to Naples where he was shown round by mobsters is said to have taken place in 2011 and he has admitted being there but insisted he left when he realised he was in a “dangerous area.” He has been questioned by prosecutors in connection with his visit but has never been charged with any offence or suspected of any wrongdoing.       Source: thesun.co.uk

'Mourinho will be a disaster at Chelsea' - Barcelona vice-president slams Real Madrid boss

Barcelona vice-president expects Jose Mourinho to cause trouble back at Chelsea.

Carles Vilarrubi anticipates trouble at Stamford Bridge should the Portuguese be installed as the Blues' new manager after a tumultuous three years at the Santiago Bernabeu

Barcelona vice-president Carles Vilarrubi has warned Chelsea that bringing Jose Mourinho back to the club could end in disaster.

Goal understands the former Real Madrid boss is on the verge of returning to Stamford Bridge for a second spell in charge and will have his appointment confirmed in a matter of days.

But Vilarrubi believes his second stint with the club will only spell trouble for the Europa League winners.

"It's not good for English football; there is nothing positive in what he leaves in Spain," he told The Telegraph.

"Chelsea can think they had a good time with him, but now is when they will see the real Mourinho. If he acts the same way he has done in Spain, the relationship between them will be just unhappy.

"Mourinho will be a disaster at Chelsea; he is not going to change at his age. I don't talk this way only because he was a rival, but also because how he acted and what he did. His three years in Spain only left us arguments and disagreements."

The Barcelona official dislikes Mourinho's mentality against his opponents, saying the Portuguese is too often out on a personal mission for vengeance.

"He has always been like this," he continued. "What kind of coach wins the Champions League twice and does not fly home on the same aeroplane as his players?"

"A coach you would think he wants to celebrate with his players, enjoy the moment. Not him. He is thinking of himself. I don’t know what is wrong with him. In his mind there is something wrong."

Militants Threaten 'All West Africa'

Ghana's President John Dramani Mahama has warned that Islamist militancy poses a threat that could destabilise the whole of West Africa. Mr Mahama told the BBC that although Ghana had not been directly affected, no country was safe if insurgency was allowed to take hold elsewhere. He said intervention led by France had helped guarantee stability in Mali, but the conflict there was not yet over. He also backed the African Union's plan to create a rapid reaction force. Mr Mahama said there had been a suggestion that it could be funded by a tax on air travel and hotels across the continent. In January, French forces spearheaded an operation to drive out al-Qaeda and other allied Islamist groups from northern Mali, where they had seized control in the chaos following a coup last year. Ghana's leader said the incident showed how the whole Sahel region had "become an attractive foothold for insurgents". "If we allow that foothold to consolidate, then it could affect the stability of our entire region," Mr Mahama told the BBC's Newsday programme. Despite regaining territory from Islamist groups in Mali, he said the crisis was not over. "There is the danger of asymmetric attacks like we saw in Niger the last few days, and so it is a matter that worries all of us in the sub-region," Mr Mahama said. "And we need to act collectively as a sub-region and a continent and indeed globally to be able to ensure peace and stability."       Source: BBC

Nigeria Bans Same-Sex Marriage

Nigerian lawmakers have approved a bill banning same-sex marriage, setting jail terms of up to 14 years for offenders. The measure backed by the House of Representatives also makes it illegal to form gay groups or organisations. The bill – which was adopted by the Senate in 2011 – is now expected to be sent to President Goodluck Jonathan to be signed into law. It is already illegal to have gay sex in Nigeria, and homosexuals say they often suffer abuse. The proposed bill also envisages prison sentences up to 10 years for anyone who participates in gay clubs or organisations. A number of other African nations have already made homosexuality punishable by jail sentences.       Source: BBC

Kuffour: Bayern must win final to eclipse my 2001 winners

 

Samuel Kuffour feels Bayern must beat Dortmund to match the 2001 side

The Ghanaian tells Goal that Jupp Heynckes' side can only be classed as a truly great side if they can bounce back from two showpiece defeats in three seasons

Samuel Kuffour can relate to the situation Bayern Munich find themselves in this weekend. In 1999 he unwittingly became the symbol of the Bavarians' agonising, last-minute defeat to Manchester United in the Champions League final. 

"Everybody couldn't believe what had just happened. It was a very, very sad moment," he says of the atmosphere in the dressing room after the clash at Camp Nou.

Last season, of course, a late set-piece goal helped Chelsea snatch the trophy from Bayern’s grasp just as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s had done 13 years previous. For Kuffour, though, the story ended in triumph as Bayern returned to lift the trophy in 2001, so the former defender is well placed to offer insight into the emotions affecting Jupp Heynckes’ side ahead of their clash with Borussia Dortmund on Saturday. Goal spoke exclusively to the popular Ghanaian earlier this week.

BAYERN'S CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FINALS
1999 - HEARTBREAK VS MAN UNITED
	One of the most iconic European finals in recent memory, Manchester United's two stoppage-time goals turned around what was looking to be a simple 1-0 victory to the Germans.
2001 - VICTORY OVER VALENCIA
	Two years later, it was Bayern's turn to break hearts as they beat Valencia after extra-time, with the scores locked at 1-1, on penalties. An excellent bounce back from Bayern, whose squad still had the spine from the 1999 defeat.
2010 - DEFEAT TO INTER
	Jose Mourinho's Inter romped to a 2-0 victory to condemn Bayern to another Champions League final defeat three years ago. Two goals from Diego Milito secured the win for the Italian giants at the Santiago Bernabeu.
2012 - CONQUERED BY CHELSEA
	Their most recent European final defeat and still the most sore - defeat on home turf at the Allianz Arena was a shock result, especially considering Bayern had created far more chances than the Blues. But profligacy cost the Bavarians, who were ultimately beaten on penalties.

One of the defining images of the 1999 final was you banging the turf in frustration after Bayern had lost in such dramatic circumstances. What are your memories of that day?

"I have never been able to bring myself to watch the game.

"When we played against Manchester United they had Dwight Yorke and Andy Cole and if you kept them quiet that was the end of Manchester United. We did that and had more possession and more opportunities than Manchester United, but it was their day and that's why they won. They had luck on their side.

"Lothar Matthaus came to my room a night before the final and said to me if we handle Cole and Yorke then we have won this game. But they took him off in the 80th minute. People were asking why Matthaus went out in the 80th minute but that was our plan. He was getting old at that time. He was 38. So we brought in Thorsten Fink to come on and hold the midfield.

"And things didn't go as planned. But personally, for me, if I were Matthaus I would have played that game until the last drop of my blood was spent because it was a Champions League final and everyone wants to get the glory. Him staying on the field would have changed our game."

What psychological effect could losing last season’s final have on the current Bayern team going into this match?

"All the players needed against Chelsea was character to win that final. It is virtually the same squad that played last season. Losing the Champions League final on home soil is a painful thing and it is now time for them to talk to each other and believe they can win.

"Everybody can see now is their time. I was in Munich when they won the Bundesliga a few weeks ago together with so many former players and I think that was the inspiration the players need now. We have been talking to them.

"Everybody can see now is their time. When you look at the balance of the team they are stronger than any club in Europe. The whole team is solid with [Franck] Ribery and [Arjen] Robben on fire. What they have to do is not to underrate Dortmund as anything can happen in a final. But I tip Bayern to beat Dortmund by two goals."

Bayern team conceded a last-minute set-piece to Chelsea in the final last year - is this a weak spot for Dortmund to exploit?

"I think the concentration needs to be higher from the Bayern defenders. But I spoke to Jerome Boateng and he is very confident to play against [Robert] Lewandowski and now they have Dante from Brazil who has been solid this season.

"I also really love to see [David] Alaba playing. Last season he missed the final and I think it will be a huge opportunity for him to play - he has great potential."

You won the final through a penalty shoot-out in 2001 against Valencia - what does it take to triumph on spot kicks?

"The coach came to me before the penalties and asked me if I want to kick the first penalty among the five and I said no.

"I remember me and Bixente Lizarazu ran away and told the coach: "Let the Germans kick. Afterwards we will see what happens. Let them take the penalties and I will pray behind them."

"I'm very good at penalty taking but in this shoot-out I was hiding away from taking one. Especially in the final, against Valencia, anything can happen.

"Taking penalties is all about concentration. You spot one place and kick it hard. As a player you can’t have a second thought; just shoot at your target."

There is a culture of success at Bayern. How badly do the defeats in European finals hurt the club, especially last season on home soil?

"It's been a hard time for the fans who love the club so much. Just before we came on the field to face Valencia in 2001, [Bayern veteran Stefan] Effenberg told us to go out there and fight for the people of Bavaria. Losing in four finals in '87, '99, 2010 and 2012 hasn't been easy. This time they have to win, whatever it takes, because they can't look back again and keep losing finals. If they win everyone will say they deserved to win because they have beaten Barcelona 7-0 and beaten Juventus 4-0."

What are the expectations on this Bayern team now?

"The whole season has been amazing. There is a positive feeling in that camp and I give credit to Jupp Heynckes who has done an extraordinary job with this squad and taken German football to the next level.

"Winning the league 25 points ahead of Dortmund is a record in the Bundesliga. In our time it was 15 points. They now have the cup final to play plus this Champions League so it shows how the team has been reorganised after the shock defeat against Chelsea

"I believe that dominating continental football is a realistic dream with Pep Guardiola coming in. He is one of the best coaches in the world. I think Guardiola is going to do the same with Bayern [as he did at Barca] and we will see the improvement.

"Bayern have also bought Mario Gotze and it is likely they could land Lewandowski. They are going to be at the top for a very long time. Bayern are going to win the league next season and possibly get to the final of Champions League again."

How can they prove they are better than the team of 2001?

"For now they are not better than the 2001 squad. They have to win the Champions League first. The Champions League is the ultimate in European football and the 2001 team won it. During our run we beat Barcelona 2-1 so, as they beat them 7-0, it is a great achievement but they have to get their hands on the trophy before we can start talking about them being better than us.

"The 2001 squad won the Bundesliga and Champions League making it a double, so if they win Champions League and DFB-Pokal to add to their league title then that will make them treble winners. I can say after that they are better than us."

Muslim Students At Pentecost University Angry

Even though the 1992 Constitution grants that every Ghanaian shall practice any religion of his or her choice, Muslim students at the Pentecost University College (PSU), have been barred from enjoying this fundamental rights enshrined in the Constitution. The Muslim students on PUC campus located at Sowutuom –Accra, have been forced by the school authorities through a strict directive to attend church service as Christians in total violation of the 1992 Constitution. The Pentecost Church in the latter part of 2012, came under severe criticism from human rights activists for demanding test for Human Immune Deficiency Virus (HIV) and Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS), as a prerequisite for the church to officiate marriages. The mandatory church attendance is likely to land the PUC in the Supreme Court for Constitutional interpretation. The Herald’s investigations revealed that Muslim students are compelled to attend the church service under the cloak of a College Assembly. While regular students of the University are made to attend the assembly on Tuesdays, their colleagues in the weekend class are made to attend theirs on Fridays. The College Assembly The Herald gathered is an Assembly of “praise and worship”, where Muslim students are forced to join their Christian counterparts to take part in a religious activity that professes God the way of the Church of Pentecost. Some of the Muslim students told The Herald that the regular church attendance conflict with their Islamic faith, as they are now being indoctrinated with the Pentecostal ideals, as all students who distance themselves from the Assembly would not be allowed to graduate. The obviously angry students lamented over the decision to force them to attend church service, describing it as an “ambush”, since they were not informed about the university’s strict religious directive, at the time of seeking admission into the school. When The Herald contacted the Head of Corporate Affairs of the University, Mr. Kye-Boateng on the issue, he insisted the Assembly was part of the curriculum for all students at PUC, but angrily questioned the number of Muslim students on campus. “How many of them do we have in the school” he questioned this reporter in an angry mood in a telephone conversation. A Moslem cleric who spoke with The Herald said that he does not understand why such a reputable church organization, like the Pentecost Church should be engaged in these outmoded practices, when the other hard line churches are redefining their doctrines in tune with modern trends. He urged the students to proceed to court if the University authorities refuse to let them graduate for not attending the church services. According to him, the church seems not to have taken any cue from the advice of President John Mahatma to religious institutions, not to force their sects on students of other religious persuasion. The Herald is in the process of finding out whether Christian students at the Islamic University in Accra, are also forced to attend Islamic prayers by the school’s authorities.       Source: The Herald

BoG Policy Rate Up At 16 Per Cent

The Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) on Wednesday increased the policy rate by 100 basis points to 16 per cent, the first since June 2012, citing upside risks to inflation, weakened business and consumer confidence as well as exchange rate pressures. “On balance, the Committee held the view that risks to the inflation outlook were elevated and outweighed the risks to growth and therefore decided to increase the policy rate from 15 percent to 16 percent,” Dr Kofi Wampah, Governor of the Bank of Ghana and Chairman of the MPC told journalists at a news conference. Dr Wampah said the major upside risks to inflation outlook were heightened inflation and exchange rate expectations, lingering fiscal pressures, challenges in the energy sector, weakened commodity prices and the likelihood of full cost recovery in the energy sector. On assessment to risks to inflation and growth, he said, the Committee took note of the impact of the combined effects of the upward adjustment in petroleum prices and the high twin deficits of 2012 resulting in aggregate demand pressures. “Food prices continue to pose significant near-term risk to the inflation outlook”, he said. Dr Wampah said the fiscal outturn for the first quarter pointed to significant revenue shortfalls even though expenditures remained broadly within targets. He, however, noted that Government had put in place measures to address the revenue shortfalls and to rationalize expenditures to help with the fiscal consolidation efforts. Dr Wampah said Government had initiated a programme to restructure its debt by substituting the high cost short-term debt with longer-term instruments, adding that the move was expected to reduce the high interest payments. On the external front, he said, the trade deficit had widened further on the back of a significant deterioration in the terms of trade. “This was on account of low international commodity prices, which have fed through to lower exports receipts, despite imports remaining broadly flat.”       Source: GNA
