Can Ghana Premier League Stars Silence England Supporters? Submitted By: SEPR Monday, 28 March 2011 Can Ghana Premier League stars silence England supporters? Submitted by: SEPR Monday, 28 March 2011 Fresh from their victory in Cardiff, a sell-out Wembley will welcome England home as Capello’s men take on some familiar faces in the form of Ghana on Tuesday night. The African side, who managed to reach the quarter finals of the 2010 World Cup, will feature up to four Premier League based players in Tuesday’s friendly and Boylesports.com (http://www.boylesports.com) is 5/4 that any Premier League-based Ghanaian scores against Capello’s men. Sunderland’s Asamoah Gyan, a 15/2, carries Ghana’s best hopes of a goal but his Sunderland teammates Sulley Muntari and John Mensah, Fulham’s John Paintsil and Blackpool keeper Richard Kingson are all expected to feature for the visitors. Kingson is at 25/1 to save a penalty against England with Boylesports.com, who also go 25/1 on the Blackpool stopper receiving a red card or scoring an own goal. Ghana cruelly lost out in the World Cup quarter finals to Uruguay after Luis Suarez handled the ball on the line to prevent Ghana scoring a last minute winner, with Gyan missing the resulting penalty, and Boylesports.com hasn’t ruled out the chance of history repeating itself at Wembley tomorrow night. The bookmaker is 100/1 that any outfield player stops a goal bound effort with their hand and 50/1 that Asamoah Gyan misses a penalty 50/1 during the match. “There will be a large Ghanaian support in the ground on Tuesday night and with many of the African side’s star players based in the Premier League, this could feel like a home game for Ghana,” said Boylesports.com PR spokesperson, Nicola McGeady. “Asamoah Gyan has been a huge hit in the Premier League this season and the England back four will have to be on their guard to keep him at bay.” England v Ghana Betting (http://www.boylesports.com) Specials Any Premier League-based Ghana player to score (John Paintsil, John Mensah, Sulley Muntari, Asamoah Gyan): 5/4 Richard Kingson to save a penalty 25/1 Richard Kingson to concede a penalty 16/1 Richard Kingson to be sent off 25/1 Richard Kingson to score an own goal 25/1 Gareth Barry to score a penalty 14/1 Any outfield player to stop a goal bound effort with their hand 100/1 Asamoah Gyan to miss a penalty 50/1 About Boylesports.com Page 1 Boylesports.com is Ireland's largest independent bookmakers and online betting company, which offering a state of the art online sports betting (http://www.boylesports.com), Poker, Casino and Bingo gaming experience.

  • N°559 DECEMBRE LES ARMES ET LES LARMES 2012 a PROPOS DE LA TUERIE DU CONNECTICUT Une Fois De Plus, La Folie Meurtrière a Frappé Les Etats-Unis
    Par Koffi du 18 Editorial SOUZA N°559 DECEMBRE LES ARMES ET LES LARMES A PROPOS DE LA TUERIE DU CONNECTICUT 2012 Une fois de plus, la folie meurtrière a frappé les Etats-Unis. 26 personnes, dont 20 enfants sont mortes sous les balles d'un tueur dans une école du Connecticut. Et une fois de plus est mise en cause la liberté de s'armer reconnue aux citoyens américains. UNE LIBERTE CONSTITUTIONNELLE On sait en effet que la Constitution américaine précise (AMENDEMENT II (15 décembre 1791)) : "Une milice bien organisée étant nécessaire à la sécurité d'un Etat libre, il ne pourra être porté atteinte au droit du peuple de détenir et de porter des armes." L'idée à l'époque était de garantir la liberté des citoyens face à l'éventuelle oppression d'une armée de métier au service de la Fédération. Depuis, loin de tomber en désuétude, cette liberté de s'armer a été renforcée par la Cour Suprême. On se demandait jusqu'à une date récente si cette impossibilité de limiter le droit de s'armer s'appliquait seulement à l'État fédéral ou bien à toutes les instances nationales ou locales. En 2010, la Cour Suprême a tranché estimant que le deuxième amendement peut s'imposer à chaque État, au même titre que la liberté d'expression ou celle d'exercer la religion de son choix. En d'autres termes, les États ou les municipalités ne peuvent pas limiter la détention d'armes à feu : dans l'arrêt McDonald v. Chicago, la Cour Suprême a annulé les dispositions d'un règlement municipal de la ville de Bi-hebdomadaire Togolais d’Informations et d’Analyses suite à la page
