Megafonix2: O "Aussie Rules", ou Futebol Australiano, chega à Europa |
O Campeonato da Europa de futebol australiano decorre em Hamburgo (Alemanha) mas a maioria dos cidadãos do Velho Continente nunca ouviu falar nessa "estranha" modalidade que parece uma mistura de râguebi e futebol. Em competição estão inscritas as selecções da Espanha e Catalunha, Inglaterra, Bélgica, Finlândia, República Checa, França, Alemanha, Holanda, Alemanha, Áustria e Suécia.
O futebol australiano, também chamado aussie rules, é uma modalidade desportiva largamente praticada na Austrália e divide com o râgeubi as atenções dos adeptos de desporto australianos.
Trata-se de uma modalidade de forte contacto físico com origem no século XIX, em Melbourne. As regras do jogo foram regulamentadas em 1859, porém a primeira partida foi disputada um ano antes com regras improvisadas. As suas origens derivam em parte do futebol gaélico e em parte do râguebi.
Em 1877, no estado de Victoria, foi organizada a Victorian Football Association com 12 equipas e em 1897, sempre no mesmo estado, foi criada a Victorian Football League com oito clubes. A Australian Football League surgiu em 1989 após a adesão de formações de outros estados

Mundofone2: Cristiano Ronaldo acusado de agressão a adepto do Everton |
Ser um dos melhores do Mundo é mesmo assim. Muito brilhantismo, as luzes da ribalta sempre a incidir forte e pouca paz. Desta vez, Cristiano Ronaldo está a contas com a justiça inglesa, depois de um adepto do Everton ter apresentado queixa formal na Polícia de Liverpool, por ter sido, alegadamente, pontapeado pelo extremo dos red devils.
O caso remonta ao fim-de-semana passado, durante o embate do Manchester United com os toffees, em Goodison Park, de onde os pupilos de Sir Alex Ferguson saíram vencedores, por 1-0.
Carl Lloyd, um carpinteiro de 34 anos, explicou ao “Daily Post” as circunstâncias em que o incidente aconteceu, assinalando que quando se preparava para apanhar a bola de jogo junto a um painel publicitário para a repor em jogo, foi atingido pelos pitons da bota do número 7.
“Nem queria acreditar no que estava a acontecer e não entendo a atitude dele. Apenas queria segurar a bola para a devolver”, explicou ao diário britânico.
De acordo com o queixoso, as dores no braço direito são “insuportáveis” e obrigaram-no a “ir ao hospital”, afirmando que não deverá regressar ao trabalho “tão cedo”.
Um porta-voz das autoridades de Merseyside, condado da cidade dos Beatles, confirmou que Carl Lloyd apresentou uma queixa formal contra o atleta, advertindo que a investigação preliminar vai seguir, com recolha de depoimentos e os essenciais exames às gravações das câmaras de segurança do estádio do Everton.

Sexão: Norte-americanos preferem Internet a amigos ou sexo |
Foi publicado um estudo nos EUA onde uma em cada três pessoas afirmou que prefere navegar na Internet em vez de estar com os amigos ou fazer sexo. De acordo com o mesmo estudo, apenas um quinto dos entrevistados responde conseguir passar uma semana ser aceder à Rede
O inquérito foi realizado pela agência publicitária JWT junto de mais de mil adultos norte-americanos e revelou que a maioria já não consegue passar uma semana sem ir à Internet. Quando questionados sobre quanto tempo conseguiam estar «desligados», 15 por cento responderam um dia ou menos, 21 por cento dois dias e 19 por cento afirmaram alguns dias.
À Reuters Ann Mack, responsável pelo estudo, afirmou que «as pessoas disseram-nos quão ansiosas, isoladas e entediadas se sentem quando são forçadas a ficar offline».
Outras conclusões apontaram para 28 por cento a percentagem de inquiridos que refere que está a passar menos tempo em relações pessoais por causa da Internet, o mesmo acontecendo com 20 por cento dos indivíduos que responderam que diminuíram a actividade sexual à conta da Web.
A responsável acredita que «a Internet está a arranjar espaço entre as actividades offline, como sexo, relacionamentos pessoais e entre o tempo que as pessoas passavam a ver TV e ler jornais e revistas», algo que não deve deixar os seus «parceiros muito felizes», conclui.

Megafonix2: Cristiano Ronaldo, Nani e Anderson vs. Juliana, Brandy-Lee, Gemma, Tyese e Hanna |

TWO of the five escort girls who romped with Cristiano Ronaldo and his Man Utd pals have ripped the pants off what REALLY happens when a team of cheap hookers tackles a multi-million pound midfield.
Tyese Cunningham and Gemma Storey revealed how they teased £120,000-a-week Ronaldo and fellow stars £14m Nani and £17m Anderson with Tesco's finest sexy knickers.
Then they dropped their defences and let the soccer aces score at will.
As they slipped in and out of Ronaldo's pool and Jacuzzi, the girls had an orgy all through the night... stopping only for breathers and fags on the World Cup winker's expensive cream sofa.
"It was huge and L-shaped. I couldn't believe I was there," said 18-year-old Tyese. "I felt like a WAG!"
But WAG stood for What A Git she thought Ron was - after counting the gate money at the end of the lust match... just £2,900 for all five girls which wouldn't cover a footballer's champagne bill in a nightclub.
"They made me feel cheap," she moaned. "I've slept with about 200 clients and I've never been treated with such little respect. They didn't care about our feelings. They didn't even talk. They just moved our bodies into the right positions."
Her feelings were far from her mind however when she got the call from McKenzie's escort agency in Leeds — 60 miles from Manchester where Ronaldo and his pals wanted to celebrate Man Utd's first win of the season against Spurs last week.
"I'd just been with a client so I said I was going out with friends," said the 34E beauty of Jamaican descent.
"But when she told me it was footballers I cancelled my mates!
"I put on a blue and gold mini dress and some really sexy black and white underwear from Tesco's which showed off my boobs brilliantly."
Gemma, 20, went a little more upmarket with her knickers seeing as how it was footballers.
She disclosed: "They were from Debenhams. I wanted to look my best.
"Our boss said if we gave them a good time they'd book us again."
Along with pals Hannah, Julia and Brandy-Lee they went most of the way in a cab before a Merc, driven by "a fat bloke", took them the rest of the way to Ronaldo's home.
Tyese chipped in: "We turned through some gates up to an amazing house. The fat bloke ushered us through the door then said, ‘Which of you is Hannah?' She was the one with the credit card machine."
They went into the living room where Brazilian Anderson, 19, kissed them all on the cheek as Ronaldo — who has an on-off relationship with Hollyoaks beauty Gemma Atkinson — sat on the sofa smiling.
Tyese added: "Then a man I later found out was Nani came in wearing only boxer shorts, swaggering about saying, ‘I am hot, I am hot'. I knew this wasn't going to be simple sex."
The girls were told to help themselves to vodka and Red Bulls. Gemma said: "The only guy I recognised was Ronaldo. I quite fancied him so I asked him, ‘Have you got a pool?'
Soon Tyese and Gemma were in there naked with Ronaldo and Nani. Tyese said: "I knew Nani liked me so I made a beeline for him. We started kissing but I don't think he really gave a s**t about me. He just wanted sex.
"I put my legs around his waist as we kissed and I saw Gemma was kissing Ronaldo. Then Ronaldo turned to me and said, ‘Kiss her'."
When Gemma and Tyese started snogging, Ronaldo rose to the occasion, pulled Gemma out of the pool and took her into the shower room.
Tyese said: "She was having fun, I could hear her screaming!".
Gemma was coming to terms with the Portuguese player's prowess. She said: "He was well endowed. He turned me round and pushed me against the wall.
"Then I was on top of him on a bench. Then we did it over the loo. I had to have a shower to cool down."
Meanwhile Tyese had Nani, 20, in a state in the steam room. She giggled: "It was boiling hot! I remember he had an odd shaped manhood. It lasted four or five minutes. It was so hot it was awful."
Ronaldo and Nani strolled off for half-time so the girls got dressed.
Tyese said: "We had a fag and some vodka. Then we had a snoop into the house. It was funny because all the pictures had been turned around so no one could see them."
After topping up their drinks the girls stripped and dipped back into the empty pool. Then their on-the-game took a turn for the worst.
Tyese said: "Suddenly the man who drove us there came back through in just his boxers. He was awful, fat and bald and he got into the pool. He took Gemma's out and towards the door. She turned to me, pleading for me to come too. But I said No.
"I went to the living room and was on my own for about 20 minutes laid on Ronaldo's sofa drinking Smirnoff and watching TV. It was so amazing. Then Hannah came downstairs and joined me.
"She said, 'I can't believe we are here. I am so shagging Ronaldo before I leave'. I said, ‘Snap!'.
"Then I heard Gemma shouting my name. I knew she wanted me to rescue her from the fat bloke so I laid on the floor and when she came down she couldn't see me.
"The fat man came down and dragged her back upstairs. About ten minutes later Brandy-Lee came down and joined me for a fag outside.
"Then the fat man returned and said he wanted a turn with me. I said, ‘After my fag'. So I smoked mine and then some of Brandy Lee's to prolong it."
But there was no escape. The man took Tyese upstairs to a bedroom and the inevitable happened.
She explained: "After a few minutes I told him I needed a drink. I put my clothes on, ran downstairs and met Gemma for a fag outside."
Ronaldo and Nani were there. "We started talking about bums for some reason and I started feeling Ronaldo's.
"It was great, juicy and big and then he felt my bum. He obviously liked it because he got my hand and led me through to the pool room.
"I thought, ‘This is it, this is where I get to have sex with Ronaldo!'
"He got my dress and lifted it up over my head. I slipped off my knickers. We got into the jacuzzi and he sat down and pulled me onto him.
"We were there for about five or six minutes but he didn't speak to me at all. After a bit he obviously had enough and climbed out. We were being paid to be there but he didn't treat me with an ounce of respect. I put my clothes back on and went for a fag."
Next it was Anderson's turn. "He came on to me and took me into the pool room," said Tyese.
"I liked him. He didn't just treat me like a piece of meat. He was the best endowed too. I put my legs around his waist and we had sex. He kissed me afterwards. I didn't feel cheap with him."
Soon Tyese and Gemma were back in the pool — this time with Nani, Anderson and Ronaldo. "I was kissing Gemma and all the boys and she was kissing me and them too," said Tyese.
"One of the blokes was pleasuring me but I don't know which one. Then her heart sank as the fat man got in too.
"Ronaldo said something to him. He turned to me and Gemma and said, ‘Get out, I want you to have oral sex'.
"So we did and the blokes watched. Ronaldo got out of the pool and pleasured himself. Anderson was perched on the side and Nani was stood over us. They were all watching us."
The lesbian romp signalled the final whistle and Ronaldo went to bed. They had been at it for four hours.
"The fat man said, ‘get your things and leave'. He treated us like s**t. He called a friend of his who drove us home," said Tyese. "I thought having sex with three Manchester United stars would be like a dream come true.
"But I realise now that being a WAG is not all it seems cracked up to be if this is the way they all behave.
"My previous customers have always been polite. But these men had no morals."
