Sylvester Stallone- 66 years old and still ripped!


In the late 1980s, actor Sylvester Stallone reached a multimillion dollar settlement with his half-sister in response to her allegations that he had abused her for years, it was revealed this week. Now, the New York Post is reporting secret tapes of private conversations between Stallone and his half-sister, Toni-Ann Filiti, were destroyed as part of that settlement. In 1987, Stallone agreed to pay Filiti $2 million up front, plus $16,666.66 a month for the duration of her life, and establish a trust of $50,000 per year for “psychiatric and medical expenses,” the Post reports. Filiti died of lung cancer in 2012 at age 48. Which canceled TV show would you bring back? Vote now! Now, the Post has obtained settlement documents which indicate that six cassette tapes were destroyed as part of the settlement. Four of the tapes contained conversations between Filiti and Stallone. Stallone and Filiti’s mother, Jacqueline Stallone, believes her son was blackmailed and described the settlement as a “shakedown.” “Toni-Ann was on 65 Oxycontin pills a day, and she threatened Sylvester,” Jacqueline told the Post. “At the time he was very [famous], and his lawyers said, ‘Give her something just to shut her up.’” A source tells the Post that the destroyed tapes provided evidence that the settlement was, in fact, blackmail on the part of Filiti. Filiti’s son Edd, 19, says his mother maintained up until her death that the abuse actually happened. He told the Post he had no comment on the tapes.

Sëmundja e detyron Albanon e “Apartamentin 2XL” të braktis skenën


Të gjithë mund ta kenë vënë re mungesën e aktorit Albano Bogdo në show-n “Apartamenti 2XL”, që transmetohet çdo të diel në ekranin e “Vizion Plus”. Këto ditë shumë fansa të tij kanë shkruajtur në rrjetet sociale, madje shumë prej tyre të shqetësuar kanë komentuar në faqen e “Apartamentit 2XL” duke hedhur dhe dyshime se Albano është larguar përfundimisht nga ky show.
Dhe pas tre javëve vet Albano u është përgjigjur atyre përmes këtij statusi: “Atëherë, nuk kam ikur dhe nuk do të iki kurrë nga “2XL” (shyqyr Zotit as nuk më kanë hequr, hahaha). Thjesht kam pasur disa probleme të vogla shëndetësore, që tani po largohen…
Disa media rozë kanë konfirmuar se aktori është stabilizuar me shëndetin dhe se shumë shpjet do të kthehet me batutat e tij në ekran

"After three years, It was the right time to end this relationship"


Bye Bye Mourinho!
Florentino Pérez called a press conference at the Santiago Bernabéu and announced that José Mourinho will step down as Real Madrid coach at the end of the season. Even though the Portuguese manager had a contract until 2016, the club’s board of directors has reached an agreement with him to leave the club after three years in charge.
"It isn’t nice to reach a solution like this, but it is also true that after three years, both of us have agreed that it was the right time to end this relationship and we want to thank him, firstly, for the job he’s done", the Real Madrid president said.
"We haven’t reached an agreement or signed a pre-contract with another coach. That’s the task at hand and our job for the next few days. PSG told us they didn't want to let Ancelotti go", Florentino Pérez responded to the question whether he already knew the name of the manager set to replace José Mourinho in the Real Madrid dugout.
"We want the new coach to be someone who can help us continue improving. In footballing terms, we’re playing to a high standard that we should never have lost, but had lost during the six previous seasons", the president said.

Florentino in figures: 10 years, €860 million spent, 10 trophies


Florentino in figures: 10 years, €860 million spent, 10 trophies

An examination of the record of Florentino Pérez, who is celebrating a decade at the helm of the most decorated club in football history, shows that he has invested almost €860 million in the transfer market to win just ten trophies over the last ten years.
In other words, each piece of silverware has cost an average of €86 million, a crazy amount considering the nature of the haul achieved: just one Champions League, three 'La Liga' titles, one Spanish Cup, three Spanish Super Cups, one UEFA Super Cup and one Intercontinental Cup.
Florentino has employed almost as many coaches as he has won trophies. Eight managers have been and gone during the current Real Madrid president's two mandates. Pérez took up the position in summer 2000 and his most successful period to date came under the man already installed in the 'Los Blancos' hotseat, Vicente Del Bosque.
Pérez has never been shy to get out the chequebook, stumping up close to €120 million on new signings in his first summer, including pulling off a major coup by persuading Luis Figo to swap Barcelona for Madrid.
Zidane, the Brazilian Ronaldo and Beckham were to follow in the next three years, the latter in the summer of 2004, when Carlos Queiroz was drafted in to replace Del Bosque. Though the Portuguese led Real to the Spanish Super Cup, this was the last glory Florentino was to taste until Mourinho broke the drought by winning the 'Copa del Rey' in April 2011.
Some €400 million was spent during this barren spell, which takes in the last two years of Pérez's first stint as president and the first campaign after his triumphant return to the club in 2009, when Cristiano Ronaldo, Kaká, Karim Benzema and Xabi Alonso were all brought in.

Napoli president confirms Cavani-Dzeko negotiations, reacts to Benitez talk


Napoli president confirms Cavani-Dzeko negotiations, reacts to Benitez talk

The club president has admitted that there has been contact with the Premier League side over both strikers and also responded to reports linking them with Rafa Benitez
Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis has revealed that the Serie A side are in negotiations with Manchester City over Edin Dzeko and Edinson Cavani.

The Premier League giants are keen to lure Cavani away from his current club, but have yet to table a concrete offer for the Uruguay international.

Napoli, on the other hand, see Dzeko as a good alternative to Cavani in case the latter leaves this summer and De Laurentiis decided to contact City when he visited London on Monday to open talks over both strikers.

"I was in London to prepare for the European release of the movie on Steve Jobs. And then I told [sporting director Riccardo] Bigon to get in touch with Manchester City to open talks about Dzeko and see what their plans are with Cavani," the Napoli president told reporters.

"There's a lot of talk, but less action when it comes to actually spending money. Unlike me, others seem to be taking a lot of time to use their bank account."

De Laurentiis then went on to discuss the possibility of appointing Rafa Benitez as their new head coach following Walter Mazzarri's announcement that he will leave the club.

"I did not go to London for Benitez, but for my film commitments. 

"I have heard a lot of names in the past six months as I knew Mazzarri would leave. The new coach will definitely be someone of Napoli's standard. 

"I will have to make a decision on who will accompany me at this club in the years to come."

The Italian press claims that Benitez is in pole position for the Napoli job, while Roberto Di Matteo has also been linked with the Stadio San Paolo side.

Ribery best midfielder, Gotze best youngster - Bundesliga awards for 2012-13

The curtain was drawn on another Bundesliga season on Saturday and it has certainly been one to remember. Bayern Munich ended Borussia Dortmund's two-year stranglehold on the title with a marvellous campaign, breaking a host of records on the way.

Schalke started the season brightly but soon imploded, replacing coach Huub Stevens with a rookie in Jens Keller but rallied to gain Champions League qualification, while two of the newly-promoted teams. Greuther Furth and Fortuna Dusseldorf went straight back down to the second tier, but Eintracht Frankfurt staged a credible charge for a European place, eventually finishing sixth.

But what of the other winners and losers? Who have been the best players and coaches in the league season? And what of the worst? Goal hands out the individual awards at the end of another absorbing nine months of football.


Just one year ago, Rene Adler's career was in tatters. After a series of injuries saw him lose his place in the Germany setup and the Bayer Leverkusen team, he was out of contract. However, a free transfer to Hamburg gave him the chance to rebuild and he has taken it with aplomb. Having stayed fit, he turned in performances of such a high calibre that he won his place back in Joachim Low's squad and has even been linked with a move to Arsenal.


While Dante's rise to prominence has been something of a shock, Franck Ribery's brilliant form has been exactly what Bundesliga fans have come to expect of the Frenchman. Having maintained his fitness at long last, the 30-year-old has turned in a string of brilliant displays, terrorising defence after defence. His stats of 10 goals and 14 assists in league games may sound meagre but the sheer number of chances he has created for team-mates with such consistency sees him scoop the prize over all others.

Thierry Henry Biography

Thierry Daniel Henry (French pronunciation: ​[tjɛʁi ɑ̃ʁi]; born 17 August 1977) is a French footballer who plays as a striker for New York Red Bulls in Major League Soccer. Henry was born in Les Ulis, Essonne (a suburb of Paris) where he played for an array of local sides as a youngster and showed great promise as a goal-scorer. He was spotted by AS Monaco in 1990 and signed instantly, making his professional debut in 1994. Good form led to an international call-up in 1998, after which he signed for the Serie A defending champions Juventus. He had a disappointing season playing on the wing, before joining Arsenal for £11 million in 1999.
