^^^A shock. Reminds of Maradona, won the world cup in 1986, then lost in the final in 1990, then got caught out for drugs in 1994.. Tragic, but like you said Italy are world champions..

Italy win World Cup Sun Jul 9, 2006 9:45 PM BST Italy beat France 5-3 on penalties in the World Cup final after the two teams finished level at 1-1 after extra time in a dramatic encounter in which French playmaker Zinedine Zidane was sent off. David Trezeguet hit the bar with his spot kick and the decisive penalty was scored by Fabio Grosso. Zidane had given France the lead from the penalty spot as early as the seventh minute but Italian defender Marco Materazzi equalised with a header just 12 minutes later. Zidane was shown the red card in the 111th minute after he head-butted Materazzi in the chest in an off-the-ball incident not seen by the referee. After fierce protests by the Italians, the referee consulted his linesman and sent Zidane off. It was only the second shootout at a World Cup final. Brazil beat Italy on penalties after a 0-0 draw in 1994. Highlights:

A great game, the dodgy Italians won the world cup. Zidane got a red card in his last game... Adieu Zizou: thanks for the memories Sunday July 9, 2006 The Observer He will walk off the pitch tonight and out of football forever. And he will leave behind a million memories. Zinedine Zidane has been - is, until tonight - the best player in the world for a generation. The best European since Johan Cruyff retired. How shall we best remember him, this man who 'plays as if he has silk gloves on each foot' (Alfredo Di Stefano), who 'can do things with his feet that others cannot do with their hands' (Thierry Henry).

Dubai, is nothing impressive, its construction gives many opportunities to western companies, they have no idea waht they arew doing or the word sustainability. A playgrund for the rich and shameless it already is, around a region getting poorer and more violent. Think about it, how far is IRAN from the UAE? Someone mentioned they should have invested in people like India, or China, who are becoming the next world powers while the Arabs are turning into the next monaco and Canaries...

^^Good news..

Its funny but I agree with Xoogsade, why is A/qaybdeed fighting? He left the old destroyed alliance, his sub-clan are not with him on this, so why is he sticking his kneck out? The courts like them or not are the power in the city, all other armed groups should join them or work with them to bring order to the city. One authority would bring benefits..

web page Shabelle Media Network (Mogadishu) July 7, 2006 Posted to the web July 7, 2006 Mogadishu There are increasing war tensions in some parts of southern Somalia Capital of Mogadishu due to militia movement around basements where Abdi Qaeybdid, former police chief and Anti Islamic courts is based. Reports from the areas indicate that well armed militiamen loyal to Abdiqaybdid are deployed in parts of the road that links Mogadishu to southern regions. The militias in Roadblocks stop people onboard civilian trucks asking where they are from and to their heading destinations. "The Islamic Courts militias have blocked the part of the road they are deployed and the cost of Bus fare is high today" Osmail Ali Abdi Tahte, a local resident said. The trucks that used the road between Mogadishu and Afgoi district have turned their direction into other sides for militia movements. "We are very much concerned about the increasing war tensions, because we have no where to run" Mumino Farah, a mother with seven children said. Militiamen belonging to Abdiqaybdid's sub-clan ...... and others from the Islamic courts armed with heavy armed vehicles are facing each other around battle lines near Banadir Hospital and the Road between Mogadishu and Afgoi.

New, besieged transitional Government in Somalia must be fortified: Annan United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7 July 2006 – The Transitional Government in Somalia, which, since establishing itself within the country earlier this year has been besieged by renewed factional fighting and the territorial gains of Islamic militias, must be strengthened so that the “painstaking†gains in the long-chaotic country are not lost, United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan says in a report released today. “Effective transitional federal institutions will enable Somalia to strengthen its internal security and deal with such threats as terrorism,†Mr. Annan writes in his analysis of political and humanitarian developments since February to be formally presented to the Security Council on Monday by François Lonsény Fall, his Special Representative for the country. Among current priorities, Mr. Annan urges measures to ensure a sustainable end to factional fighting in Mogadishu, the traditional capital, and Baidoa, the seat of the Transitional Federal Institutions of a country which has been without a functioning Government since the collapse of President Muhammad Siad Barre’s regime 15 years ago. Reviewing the recent flare-up of violence in both cities, he said that Mogadishu “saw some of the worst fighting for nearly a decade†during the reporting period, pitting militias loyal to the courts of Islamic law, or Shariah, who have been providing basic security and social services in the city, against the coalition of business leaders, Government Ministers, and faction heads that oppose them, called the Alliance for the Restoration of Peace and Counter-Terrorism (ARPCT). The stated aim of ARPCT, which has no clear relationship to the Transitional Federal Government, is to uproot terrorist elements reportedly linked to some of the Shariah Courts operating in Mogadishu. Between February and early June, the fighting between the two groups resulted in the deaths of scores of civilians and control by the Islamic Courts over most of the city, the report says. In regard to the humanitarian situation, Mr. Annan says that despite plentiful spring rains, the plight of the 2.1 million people affected by Somalia’s worst drought in a decade remains “alarming,†compounded by the continued fighting. “If the dire effects of the humanitarian crisis are to be mitigated,†he says, praising the work of the UN humanitarian agencies that have continued to deliver desperately needed supplies despite the mounting difficulties, “the international community and especially the major multilateral and bilateral partners must respond generously to the Revised 2006 Somalia Consolidated Appeals Process and meet their pledges in timely fashion.†In a related development, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) today released a summary of its wide range of activities in support of the Somali Transitional Federal Government in Baidoa, from the rehabilitation of structures to be used as conference facilities to technical assistance in governance.
