100 Million Euro for Kaka

Milanisti all over the world must be very anxious to here this new rumour. Its just only one week from the signing of Ronaldinho, which of course burst the spirit of AC Milan, an unexpected news came from Kaka. According to his spokesman, Diogo Kotscho, Kaka was interesting to join Chelsea!

It was said that Chelsea has prepared 100 million Euro for this mega signing. This also will buried Real Madrid hopes, which also interested in this 24 years old player, with their 90 million Euro offer, last season. If kaka agrees to leave Milan, he will earn 15 million Euro per year.

However this is the fenomenal singing for him, Kaka will not be that easy to leave AC Milan. Beside of his vow of loyalty with Milan, Kaka also had become an iconic player in the heart of Milanisti and the symbol of San Siro.

Will he move instead, and following his senior, Andriy Shevchenko ?

The Special One, Is He The One For Inter ?

The Special One, Jose Mourinho

The Special One invaded Serie A !!! Thanks to Morrati who finally make a "good move" by bringing in the most sensasional manager ever in soccer history to Inter Milan.
come up a question : will his good move bringing the good result ? As we all know, so far Inter was dominating in domestic stage only, in the europe level, the last time Inter crowned with europe champion title was more than 4 decades ago, 1965.

With the coming of Mourinho, Inter hopes to make their dream come true. In the soccer world, the name of Mourinho has already well known as a controversial figure with good managerial vision. FC Porto is the real evidence. Under Morinho they had overcome the europe titans and came as the UEFA Champion in 2003, which made him a twice UEFA manager of the year in 2002-2003 and 2003-2004.

However, his seasons with Chelsea was not as spectacular as his ahievement with Porto. Not even one UEFA Champion title had he presented for Chelsea. The worst season for him was in 2007-2008, when Chelsea dropped in EPL and unconfincing in UEFA Champion stage, which finally forced him to leave Chelsea in September 2007.

During his time with Chelsea, Mourinho had spent much money on player signing. He brought the stars to Stamford Bridge. Mentiones Didier Drogba, Michael Essien, Shaun Wright Phillips, Andriy Shevchenko, Michael Ballack, and Mallouda.

Now, with Inter in his arm, who will he bring to Giuseppe Meazza ? Will it be another controversial story he made ? And the biggest wonder is, will he get his next UEFA Champion trophy with Inter Milan ?

Is It Really Ronaldinho What AC Milan Needed ?

Trio Brazilian : Kaka-Pato-Ronaldinho

It looks like the dream of Galliani to bring Ronaldinho to San Siro is no longer just a dream. AC Milan will pay a deposit of 10 million euros in the meeting with Barcelona officials and Ronaldinho's agent and brother, Roberto De Assis, in the next 48 hours.
But is it really Ronaldinho that AC Milan currently needed ? It has created mixed of opinion and reaction amongst the former AC Milan stars and Milanisti.
Pierino Prati, who helped Milan win the 1969 European Cup, believes that the club still requires a target-man. "He's definitely a quality player, but is he what Milan needs? Perhaps not. Looking at the squad it's evident that there is a need for an out and out centre-forward," he said.
Meanwhile, another player who won European Cup winner with the club, Dejan Savicevic said that If Ronaldinho starts training well and finds the form he had before, then he can be the star who makes things happen for Milan. "His understanding with Kaka could be perfect", he added.
Could AC Milan, with the trio Brazillian, Kaka-Ronaldinho-Pato, repeat their success story in the 90's with their trio Netherlands, Gullit-Basten-Rijkaard ?

In and Out at Liverpool FC

Liverpool has a new player as their goal keeper. It was Diego Cavalieri who was brought by Benitez from Brazilian club, Palmeiras, on Friday (11/7). Cavalieri signed a 4 years contract with Liverpool with a transfer fee 3.7 million Euro (3 million pound sterling).
This 25 years old goal keeper, was the third important player that Liverpool got in this transfer window, previously the Italian defender Andrea Dossena, and a Switzerland center back Phillipp Degn, signed the contract with Liverpool.
On the other side, Peter Crouch has agreed on personal clauses regarding his transfer from Liverpool to Portsmouth. If he passed the medical check up, he will officially join Portmouth next season. His last season with Liverpool was mostly spent on the bench, while his position was replaced by young Spanish star, Fernando Torres.

The New Liverpool FC Goal Keeper, Diego Cavalieri

Which One, Milan ?

Ronaldinho, Adebayor, Pavlyuchenko. Which one, Milan?

It's not a simple decision to take though. When you have to choose only one from these three names, you will know how Adriano Galliani feels at this moment. Ronaldinho, Emmanuel Adebayor or Roman Pavlyuchenko?
The first 2 names, Ronaldinho and Adebayor, were proven and guarantee to make your opponent tremble to their teeth. Both of them, undoubtedly, were the best players in their generation. The last name mentioned, Pavlyuchenko, not as big as Ronaldinho or Adebayor , indeed, but for you who watched EURO 2008, you must had seen how three beautiful goals which he made , bring Russia to semifinal.
Currently, there are 5 attacante in AC Milan squad, the veteran Filippo Inzaghi plus four young talents, Alexander Pato, Alberto Paloschi, Willy Aubameyang and Marco Boriello, which comes back from his loaned season from Cagliari. Meanwhile, three other names had leaved AC Milan. Alberto Gilardino was sold to Fiorentina, Ricardo Oliveira to Real Zaragoza and Ronaldo, who was no longer sign contract extentsion with AC Milan.
With this condition, Milan only need another additional player for the striker position. Main target of AC Milan is, of course, Ronaldinho. Adebayor is only a back up if the negotiation with Ronaldinho collapse. AC Milan do not want both of them to join with AC Milan, "it will only make problems for the team to have both of them in the squad", Galliani said.
The problem is, until this time, there's still no deal regarding the transfer value for Ronaldinho between AC Milan And FC Barcelona. How about Adebayor? Lets said AC Milan fail to bring Ronaldinho to San Siro, is there any guarantee they will success with Adebayor? Again, transfer value is the problem here. Arsenal had marked adebayor as big as 32 million pound sterling, meanwhile AC Milan's offer is only 25.
The latest news said that AC Milan proposed the 3rd name as their target, Roman Pavlyuchenko. This 26 years old striker of Spartak Moscow was the Rusian star in the EURO 2008 with his 3 goals. Would it be easy ? Not that simple. Milan's rival in the race to get Pavlyuchenko is no other than AC Milan's rival in Serie A, AS Roma. More over, It was rumour that Roma had proposed 15 million Euro to Spartak side to bring Pavlyuchenko to Olympico.
So, which one, Milan ?

tag for this post : ac milan, milan, adebayor, ronaldinho, pavlyuchenko, barca, barcelona, spartak moscow, soccer, galliani, as roma, san siro, olympico, inzaghi, oliveira, alexander pato, willy aubameyang, alberto paloschi, alberto gilardino, marco boriello, cagliari, fiorentina, serie a

Just Another Post


They say,"if you wish to get something you've never gotten, you have to do something you've never done". Such a simple wise word. I knew this word since I was still in first grade of junior high school. Wether my teacher who told me, or I read from my book cover, I forgot. But it had been deeply carved in my mind. That word had made me stronger everytime I faced to a new challenges in my life. Its such a big motivation to conquer burst out from the inside when I think of the word. It reminds me (if it was translated into words) : Go!!! Do something, then you'll get something. If I fear to face it, then nothing I will get. Eventhough, maybe the result is not always precisely as what's been expected, there's still always something to take from it, experiences. It maybe hurt, but it's worth. Because something that don't kill you...make you stronger.

Smoking Addict

Do you smoke ? Are you a smoker ? I am a smoker, heavy smoker. I spend two packs of cigarette in one day. Honestly, I can not "survive" without it. What, ridiculous ? Maybe, if you are a nonsmoking ones. But It is really hard for us, addicted ones, to live without smoke.
Not only once or twice my wife told me to give up smoking. "Burning the money", she called it. No gain, get pain, she added. Yes, we all smoker more than understand about that. We also know that the cigarrettes other names are toxic, death, cancer, etc, etc.
In every pack of cigar that we bought, there's a warning message from the goverment which said : "smoking can cause heart attack, cancer, impoten, bla...bla...bla...". Do you think that those warning can hold us back from smoking ? The answer is : Hell No !!! It's not because we don't afraid of all those effect that a cigar can do to our health, it's because the temptation for smoking is even greater than its effects. The feeling of beeing macho, confident, comfortable when you are smoking is un-replaceable. This feeling even more greater if we are nervous, or in cold area.
Is it impossible for one to quit smoking ? No, it's a big possibilities to give up smoking. What is needed is a strong mind and heart. I had tried it few years ago. And I was sucessful, sadly, for two weeks only. And then after that I became a heavier smoker than before.
Will it be better if the goverment shut all the cigarette factories down ? I believe it will not solve this problem. Closing the factories will be caused more huge problems instead. Think of thousands people who will loose job if the goverment do that. The unemployment will be multiplied rapidly. The farmers who live their life from planting tobacco will collapse. And the chaos will be unbearable.
In one side, it is the biggest income maker for the goverment, in the other side, it is the biggest death creator in this last decade.
By the way, I spent three cigarettes during writting this article.

Kondo KHR-2 HV Robot

Kondo KHR-2 HV RobotNow you can have soccer playing, dancing salsa fighter robot. The Kondo robot KHR-2 HV has improved its looks taking up a more Robocop-ish style. Its features are much more robust and curved then the square-like head the previous one had. And this pretty, very entertaining little robot can be yours for just $152. And there’s not one of us who didn’t want his or her own robot when growing up.

You can also buy him a couple of soccer strips to make the whole thing more real. They only cost $10 each. Now go on and buy yourself a little robotic friend.

S3000, A6000 & M8000 Pavilion Slimline by HP

Three new models of desktop PC series have been launched into the market by HP. The three models of the Pavilion Slimline series are s3000, a6000 and m8000. The first one comes with 1GB of RAM, and you can pick either a AMD CPU or an Intel CPU, but for the later you have to pay an extra 50$. If not you can buy it for 500$. The PC can be set with a low graphic card, maybe a TV tuner and a Pocket Media Drive.

You can buy the a6000 at a lower price then the s3000. It’s just 330$ but you would be throwing off some memory because it has only 512 MB of RAM. But the bright side is that it comes with an Intel CPU, a Pocket Media Drive and a graphics card. But the “jewel of the crown” is the m8000. And the price says so to. At 950$ it has a DVD drive and again you can pick between a dual core AMD or Intel processor. All three models have Windows Vista preinstalled.

Carabiner USB Flash Drive

Let’s face it, majority of the flash drive products in the market are the same old, same old boring thing. Unless it features a revolutionary awe-inspiring technology, it's still the same thing. So when everyone else offers what you do, what should manufacturers actually do? Simple, they have to catch our, that is the consumers’, attention. Take for example this USB Carabiner Flash Drive by Brando. If you’re the outdoorsy type who has the tendency to use devices such as carabiners, then this might appeal to you. Just don’t confuse it for the real deal while you’re on the top of a mountain and a carabiner means life or death.

Windows Midori - A Secret Post Windows OS

Microsoft's upcoming Windows 7 might just be the salve to soothe Windows Vista ouchies, but what Windows fans really want is something that hasn't yet been announced. Mary-Jo of All About Microsoft says that internally, there's a project called Singularity that's designed to solve all kinds of shortcomings in current operating systems, upending the traditional way of thinking in favor of something dramatically different. And while Singularity won't be released to the public, Midori, which takes a lot of cues from it, will.
So it won't be in Windows 7, but from the sounds of it, Midori might be far enough along to make it to Windows 8. Will they still keep calling it Windows to hold onto the brand, or will they call it something different to illustrate how dramatically separate it is from what we're currently using?

According to Microsoft 2.0:

“There’s a seemingly related (related to Singularity) project under development at Microsoft which has been hush-hush. That project, codenamed ‘Midori,’ is a new Microsoft operating-system platform that supposedly supersedes Windows. Midori is in incubation, which means it is a little closer to market than most Microsoft Research projects, but not yet close enough to be available in any kind of early preview form.

“What’s also interesting about Midori is who is running the project. One-time Gates heir-apparent Eric Rudder is heading up the effort. Midori is being incubated under Chief Research and Strategy Officer Craig Mundie’s wing. ‘Everyone under him (under Rudder on Midori) is a multi-year vet, has a super fancy title, and is going back to their roots and writing code like they probably did in the old days,’ one Microsoft tipster told me.

“When and how Microsoft will roll out Midori is still a mystery. But it sounds like the company thinks the project is serious enough to dedicate a considerable amount of time/people/resources to it.”

The Bugatti Veyron EB 16.4 “Pur Sang” Edition
Visitors to the Atelier in Molsheim are always intrigued to see the Bugatti Veyron’s high-tech components being meticulously assembled into an automotive work of art. Watching the car coming together, coupled with an admiration for the technical beauty of its structure, gave the designers the idea of finishing the car in its pure material configuration – meaning no color coating. The result is the EB 16.4. Veyron “Pur Sang”, a two-tone study of pure materialness showing the car’s true essentials: carbon and aluminum.

The carbon monocoque holds the engine plus the passenger cell, while the polished aluminum panelling is enhanced by reflections in the sculpted bodywork. Interestingly, the rawness of the materials even more strongly highlights the dual character of this car: performance power coupled with cruising comfort, structure and body, dark and light.
