Lazio beats Roma 1-0 to win Italian Cup final

Posted:

ROME (AP) - Lazio took city bragging rights by beating Roma 1-0 Sunday in a derby to win a heated Italian Cup final and maintain its recent edge in the series.Senad Lulic scored in the 71st minute at the Stadio Olimpico after goalkeeper Bogdan Lobont failed to clear a cross from Antonio Candreva, leaving the unmarked Bosnia-Herzegovina midfielder to put the ball into the net at the far post.This victory won't be forgotten, Lulic said. I found myself there in the right moment. I dedicate this goal to my wife, who is pregnant.Lazio has now won four of the last five derbies, with the last meeting a 1-1 draw in April. Its sixth Italian Cup title also earned Lazio a spot in next season's Europa League group phase.Worries of fan violence at the match were high and there were brief clashes despite the presence of thousands of police officers both inside and outside the stadium.Also, South Korean rapper PSY was met with boos and small firework explosions during a pre-game performance. Organizers responded by raising the volume while he sang his hit, Gangnam Style, to drown out the dissent.Roma started with an attacking 4-2-3-1 lineup featuring Erik Lamela, Francesco Totti and Marquinho behind center forward Mattia Destro. Lazio countered with a 4-5-1 spearheaded by veteran Germany forward Miroslav Klose.Klose had the first opportunity four minutes in but missed wide.Totti, Roma's 36-year-old captain, had his club's first chance in the ninth, a bouncing shot that was stopped by Lazio goalkeeper Federico Marchetti near the post.A minute later, United States midfielder Michael Bradley dribbled free and had a clear look at the target but sent his angled effort wide.Klose had an even better chance in the 35th but his close-range header was blocked by Lobont.Roma also wasted a header in the 45th when Destro's effort from within the box sailed over the bar.Five yellow cards were handed out in the first half, with both sides playing very physically.The physical battle continued at the start of the second half and Lazio captain Cristian Ledesma exited on a stretcher in the 53rd following contact with Destro.Eventually the match opened up and there was end-to-end action, with Totti producing three more shots and Klose failing to redirect a volley cross from Mauri, Ledesma's replacement, in the 68th.Two minutes after Lulic's goal, Roma thought it had scored with a free kick from Totti that bounced off Marchetti and the underside of the bar but the ball did not go in.In the 90th, Panagiotis Tachtsidis was shown a red card on Roma's bench for protests and Totti then received a yellow, also for protests.In all, eight yellow cards, four for each side and one red were handed out.Ahead of the game, police confiscated bags of knives, rocks, clubs and other homemade weapons hidden outside the stadium. Still, fans inside the stadium set off loud fireworks throughout the match and the start of the second half was delayed when smoke bombs were thrown onto the pitch.As for the reception during PSY's performance, the rapper appeared embarrassed but told fans afterward in Italian, I love Italy. It was unclear if the boos were of a racist nature, although fans for both clubs have come under attack this season for racist chanting.

Kerry defends US drone programme as 'strict, accountable'

Posted:

ADDIS ABABA (AFP) - US Secretary of State John Kerry on Sunday defended America's use of drones to hunt down wanted terror leaders, saying the pilotless planes are only used against confirmed targets and after much vetting.Let me very clear... first of all there have been very few drone strikes in this last year. Why? Because we have been so successful in rooting out Al-Qaeda in Pakistan, he told young Ethiopian students.Secondly the only people that we fire on are confirmed terrorist targets at the highest levels after a great deal of vetting.The drone programme has been one of the most controversial aspects of the US fight against Al-Qaeda and Taliban militants in the wake of the September 11, 2001 attacks on the United States. Top leaders from both networks have been killed as a result of drone fire.Yet the use of drones, mostly sent in covertly without the prior knowledge of other governments, has been sharply criticised particularly in Pakistan and Afghanistan, and the deaths of civilians caught in the crossfire has sparked a groundswell of anger.But Kerry insisted at an event hosted at the University of Addis Ababa: I am convinced that we have one of the strictest, most accountable and fairest programmes.Each target was carefully monitored and sometimes it takes a year to build the authority to know that you're correct, Kerry said.We do not fire when we know there are children or collateral, we just don't. We have absolutely not shot at high-level targets when we have seen that there are people there, Kerry said.The US preference was to capture suspects wanted by US agencies, Kerry said, maintaining that Islamic militants did not use the same caution when they attacked American or Western targets.I will tell you that the extremists who put bombs in those mosques never engage in the kind of clear discretion we have used in this programme, he said. But he also maintained that America was not engaged in a war against Islam, and acknowledged that there had been mistakes by the United States.President Barack Obama said Thursday he had approved strict rules for when the United States can carry out drone strikes against terror suspects abroad, saying lethal force could be used when no other alternatives exist.Kerry also defended the US move to try open talks with the Taliban leadership, saying it was better to try to bring people to the table to resolve issues rather than try to fight it out.Years ago people thought the United States should not talk to China because of Mao Zedong, he told the event, hosted by the BBC, just hours before leaving for Amman.People thought we shouldn't talk to the Vietnamese during that war... but even as we fought them we had discussions in Paris about peace.

Moon may harbour alien minerals: study

Posted:

PARIS (AFP) - Minerals found in craters on the Moon may be remnants of asteroids that slammed into it and not, as long believed, the satellite's innards exposed by such impacts, a study said Sunday.The findings, published in the journal Nature Geoscience, cast doubt on the little we knew of what the Moon is actually composed of. It had long been thought that meteoroids vaporise on impact with large celestial bodies.Unusual minerals like spinel and olivine found in many lunar craters, but rarely on the Moon's surface, were therefore attributed to the excavation of sub-surface lunar layers by asteroid hits.Olivine and spinel are common components of asteroids and meteorites, and have been found on the floors and around the central peaks of lunar craters like Copernicus, Theophilus and Tycho that are around 100 kilometres (63 miles) in diameter.A team from China and the United States simulated the formation of Moon craters and found that at impact velocities under 12 kilometres per second a projectile may survive the impact, though fragmented and deformed.We conclude that some unusual minerals observed in the central peaks of many lunar impact craters could be exogenic (external) in origin and may not be indigenous to the Moon, they wrote. Co-author Jay Melosh from Purdue University in Indiana, said the finding answers the conundrum exposed by earlier studies which said craters the size of Copernicus were not big enough to have dredged up the contents of the Moon's deep, interior mantle.It also warns planetary scientists not to use the composition of the central peaks of craters as a guide to the interior of the Moon, whose dominant mineral might not be olivine, he told AFP.In an article commenting on the study, Erik Asphaug of the School of Earth and Space 1Exploration at Arizona State University, said the theory meant that material excavated from Earth by large impacts during the planet's early days may still be found on the Moon.The scattered material was known to have hit the Moon at velocities as slow as 2 km/s and should have survived, if the study's assumptions are correct.This suggested yet another explanation for the existence of spinels on the Moon, said Asphaug: They came from Earth.Even more provocative is the suggestion that we might someday find Earth's protobiological materials, no longer available on our geologically active and repeatedly recycled planet, in dry storage up in the lunar 'attic'.Certainly, the potential of finding early Earth material is emerging as one of the primary motivations for a return to the Moon by human astronauts in our ongoing search for the origin of life.Unlike the Earth's crust, which is repeatedly recycled through the process of plate tectonics, the Moon's hard crust dates back billions of years, offering clues to the formation of the solar system, including Earth.

Palestinian economic plan looks to inject $4b

Posted:

AL SHUNAH, Jordan (AFP) - US Secretary of State John Kerry said on Sunday an economic plan to revive the ailing Palestinian economy is expected to produce around $4 billion dollars in investment.We are looking to mobilise some $4 billion of investment in tourism construction, Kerry told the closing session of the World Economic Forum, held in the Jordanian town of Al Shunah on the shores of the Dead Sea.Kerry said business experts had been working to make the project real, tangible and shovel-ready. He added the preliminary results of their analysis were stunning and showed the plan would dramatically bring life to the economy.These experts believe we will increase the Palestinian GDP by as much as 50 percent over three years. The most optimistic estimates foresee enough new jobs to cut unemployment by two-thirds to eight percent down from 21 percent and to increase the median wage by 40 percent, said the top US diplomat.Since taking up the baton this year in the long-elusive search for Middle East peace, Kerry has refused to divulge publicly the details of how he intends to bridge the bitter differences between Israel and the Palestinians.But he has entrusted Quartet Middle East peace envoy Tony Blair with the task of drawing up an economic plan to attract tourism and private sector investment into the West Bank and breathe fresh hope into the area.Blair has already been working with Coca-Cola chief executive Muhtar Kent on ways of attracting investment into the depressed West Bank.Blair is shaping what I believe could be a ground-breaking plan... that will transform the fortunes of a future Palestinian state, said Kerry.It is a plan for the Palestinian economy that is bigger, bolder and more ambitious than anything proposed since Oslo, he added in reference to the 1993 peace accords.The West Bank had seen moderate growth in recent years only to be set back by Israeli and Western moves to stall aid following the Palestinian bid for upgraded UN status.Kerry said home construction can produce more than 100,000 jobs over the next three years, urging the private and public sectors to cooperate.The public and private sectors alike have a responsibility to meet the demands of this moment and one can't do it without the other. We need you at the table, he said.We need a new model for how we are going to bring order and open up the possibilities. We need to partner with the private sector because it's clear most governments don't have the money.

Obama flies to Oklahoma to console tornado victims

Posted:

MOORE, Oklahoma (AP) - President Barack Obama flew to tornado-stricken Oklahoma Sunday to offer both moral and monetary support to a community facing an enormous reconstruction challenge while still reeling from the loss of lives, property and neighborhoods.The White House said Obama wanted a firsthand look at recovery efforts from the monstrous tornado that barreled through last Monday afternoon. The president was visiting with affected families and thanking first responders in the devastated town of Moore, about 10 miles (16 kilometers) from Oklahoma City. Twenty-four people perished in the tornado, including 10 children.The extraordinarily powerful twister that struck Moore on Monday was known as an EF5, ranking it at the top of the enhanced Fujita scale used to measure tornado strength.Obama's motorcade passed past grassy fields strewn with scattered debris. He saw devastation so awesome that it appeared as if garbage had literally rained from the sky. The president's first stop was the demolished site of the Plaza Towers Elementary School, where seven students were killed when the tornado turned the one-story building into a heap of bricks, broken concrete and twisted metal.Obama flew from Washington into Tinker Air Force Base and shook hands with personnel whose homes off base were lost or damaged. Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin, the first to greet the president as he got off the plane, said Sunday that her message to Obama is that she appreciates the visit, but the state also needs quick action from the Federal Emergency Management Agency to help the ravaged town of 41,000 people.The Republican governor said so far, the emergency agency has done a great job of speeding relief and cash assistance to affected families, but she's concerned about the long run.There's going to come a time when there's going to be a tremendous amount of need once we begin the debris clearing, which we already have, but really get it cleared off to where we need to start rebuilding these homes, rebuilding these businesses, she said on CBS television's Face the Nation. ''And we know at different times in the past, money hasn't come always as quickly as it should.Obama offered prayers for residents from the White House in recent days and has promised to support the rebuilding for as long as it takes. They have suffered mightily this week, Obama said Wednesday. And while the road ahead will be long, their country will be with them every single step of the way.White House spokesman Josh Earnest, speaking to reporters accompanying the presidential party on Air Force One, said Obama wanted to make the trip to offer condolences and reiterate his and the nation's commitment to rebuild.This is the greatest nation on Earth, and we're going to dedicate this nation's time, attention, resources and expertise to help our people in their time of urgent crisis, the spokesman said.Earnest touted the federal contributions so far, including Obama's signing of a disaster declaration within hours of the storm to speed aid from the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Earnest said that 450 FEMA personnel were working on the ground in Oklahoma and have delivered 43,000 meals, 150,000 liters of water and thousands of cots, blankets and tarps. He said 4,200 people have applied for disaster assistance, and $3.4 million in payments have been approved.Fallin said the money is particularly vital for the victims. A lot of people lose their checkbooks, they lose their credit cards, they lose their driver's license, their birth certificates, their insurance papers, they lose everything, and they have no cash. And some of the banks were even hit, the ATM machines, so people need cash to get immediate needs, she said on CBS.Earnest also said that forecasters from the National Weather Service had worked ahead of the storm to prepare communities that it threatened. He said they issued a warning 36 minutes before the tornado entered Moore, earlier than the 12-minute average warning.These advancements, made by government scientists in the field of weather forecasting at these agencies are dramatic and they're saving lives, Earnest said. He said Sunday wasn't a day for a partisan political debate, adding that it is evident to any impartial observer here what an important role the federal government can play in providing assistance to our people at their time of urgent need.Among the tornado victims were 10 children, including two sisters pulled by the strong winds out of their mother's grasp, an infant who died along with his mother trying to ride out the storm in a convenience store and seven students at Plaza Towers. Many students were pulled from the rubble after the school was destroyed.Fallin noted that some 100 other schools in Oklahoma have safe rooms for children to seek shelter in tornados.Schools that have been lost in the past, many of them have rebuilt rooms of some sort as a safe room in their school, and we're certainly going to encourage that, she said.Any death is very unfortunate, but it's truly incredible that we had only 24 deaths at this site, because if you look at all the debris field and how wide it is, I don't know how anybody survived this tornado, she said on CBS.The White House said that FEMA has already provided $57 million in rebates and incentives to help build about 12,000 storm shelters in Oklahoma. These storm shelters can be the difference between life and death, Earnest said.

Iraq officials says separate attacks kill 14

Posted:

BAGHDAD (AP) - A string of attacks killed at least 14 people in Iraq on Sunday, officials said, in the latest violence of what has been a particularly bloody month in the country.Iraq has been hit by a wave of bloodshed that has killed some 300 people in the past two weeks alone, raising tensions between the country's Sunni minority and Shiite-led government. The surge in violence has been reminiscent of the sectarian carnage that pushed Iraq to the brink of civil war in 2006 and 2007.Sunday's deadliest attack took place in the northern city of Mosul, where a car bomb went off at a house early in the morning while a joint army-police unit was conducting door-to-door searches. The blast killed three policemen and one soldier, a provincial police officer said. Twenty people, including four civilians, were wounded.Also in Mosul, police said militants gunned down a policeman in his car in the city center. Authorities also found a body floating in the Tigris river, shot at close range with hands bound behind the back. Mosul, some 360 kilometers (225 miles) northwest of Baghdad, is a former stronghold of Sunni militants.In northern Baghdad's Kazimiyah district, militants in a speeding car went on a shooting spree that killed three civilians and wounded another, two police officers said. A policeman was killed in another attack in the northern Waziriya neighborhood when gunmen in two cars fired on his vehicle, wounding a colleague as well.Also, in the capital's Qahira neighborhood, militants armed with silenced pistols shot and killed a secondary school teacher, two police officers said. The motive behind the killing was not clear.In Iraq's western province of Anbar, the birthplace of the Sunni insurgency led by al-Qaida in Iraq, three soldiers were killed and five wounded in two separate attacks by roadside bombs on their patrols, police and army officers said.Two medical officials confirmed the casualty figures. All officials spoke anonymously as they were not authorized to release information.Insurgent attacks have decreased sharply in Iraq since the height of insurgency, but recent spikes in attacks amid months-old Sunni protests against the Shiite-led government have raised fears that sectarian killings could gain fresh momentum across the country.Alarmed by a nationwide deterioration in the security situation, Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki has ordered a reshuffle in senior military ranks.

Experienced batsmen Shoaib Malik and Misbah-ul-Haq rose to the occasion to stabilise Pakistan’s innings as they added 43 runs for the fifth wicket, before the skipper was dismissed.Malik, however, continued solidly in the company of Kamran Akmal. Despite wickets falling at the other end, Akmal kept Pakistan in the hunt.He smashed 11 boundaries and two sixes boundaries in his knock of 81Earlier, Joyce surpassed his previous best score of 107 against Australia in his unbeaten knock of 116, an innings that included 12 hits to the fence and one huge six.Pakistan got off to a good start after winning the toss and electing to field first.

However, Pakistan bowlers soon hit back to grab two wickets in quick succession.With the run-rate hovering just above three an over, Ireland’s Kevin O’Brien, who had guided the team to a thrilling tie in the first ODI, joined Joyce in the middle to up the scoring rate. He hit five boundaries in his knock of 38, adding 94 crucial runs for the fifth wicket.Joyce continued collecting valuable runs even as wickets continued to tumble at the other end. He paced his innings well after a cautious start and took charge to up the tempo after the fall of the eighth wicket.Abdur Rehman was the pick of the bowlers for Pakistan as he struck four times to hasten Ireland’s collapse.

Germany honors Kissinger with university chair

Posted:

Nicol David faces surprising defeat

Posted:

HULL (AFP) - World number one Nicol David suffered her most surprising defeat in four years when she lost her British Open title with a second successive defeat against Englands Laura Masssaro.David was beaten 11-4, 3-11, 12-10, 11-7 by the tenacious and loudly supported world number two, who thus repeated her win over the Malaysian in Kuala Lumpur earlier this year.It was a shock defeat for Davids and first in a major event since her British Open loss to Irelands Madeline Perry in 2009 and raised the question of how much longer the 29-year-old will hold on to top spot.The record-breaking seven-time world champion looked on course to win the globes oldest title for a fifth time when she went 10-7 ahead in the pivotal third game, only for three game points to slip away amidst the drama which included a broken racket string and a penalty point.I was watching Laura too much, said David She was playing very well. Sometimes things dont go your way, and all these girls are getting stronger.I gave her a little window and she took it. But I will be back.Massaros win made her the first home female winner of the famous title since 1991, a statistic which apparently caught her by surprise.In cool conditions, getting in front of the opponent and volleying became even more important than usual. When Massaro did that more in the first game, and David did it more often in the second, each won the games one-sidedly.The third was a dogfight, which David looked likely to win when she earned herself three successive game points. But Massaro saved the first with a fierce boast, angled off the forehand side wall, and the second with a tight wall-clinging backhand drive.Before the third David broke a string and had to change rackets, which appeared crucial, as it caused a minutes delay and allowed time for both players to compose themselves.When she reached game ball there was a traffic problem near the front which prompted the referee to award a let, only for Massaro to make an appeal to the video review system and get the decision overturned.The resulting penalty point got her the game 12-10 and changed the psychology of the match.The final shot saw David put a volley down, and soon Massaro was in tears at the impact of her success, which reversed the result of the World Open final at Grand Cayman in December.David slumped in a chair, was comforted by her psychologist, and displayed characteristic good grace amidst her disappointment. Laura made things difficult for me. All fairness to her - she deserved it, David said.The mens final, between Ramy Ashour, the world champion from Egypt, and Gregory Gaultier, the former British Open champion from France is scheduled for later in the day.
