FIFA charges Suarez for biting Italy's Chiellini, faces multi-match ban
Luiz Suarez has made history as the inaugural winner of the FIFA ‘Golden Tooth’ award. He has been charged by FIFA for biting Italy defender Giorgio Chiellini in the World Cup's Group D match on Tuesday.
FIFA said early Wednesday that its disciplinary committee has opened proceedings against the Uruguay forward. If the panel finds Suarez guilty of assaulting an opponent, FIFA rules call for a ban of at least two matches up to a maximum of 24 months.
Suarez, who has twice been suspended previously for biting, appeared to take a chomp at Italy's Giorgio Chiellini.
Chiellini pled to the referee while showing his shoulder, and Suarez appeared to be holding his mouth in apparent pain.
Suarez escaped any immediate punishment.

8 Things Everyone Should Know About Money
In today's world where the cost of living is rising astronomically and our income can barely take care of our name needs, in other words,"Your take home can't take you home."
Here are eight basic tenets you should know in order to navigate today’s financial world:
1. You have to earn more than you spend.
At the end of the day, you have to earn more than you’re spending in order to come out ahead. Sure, short-term loans and credit card debt can get you through a crunch period, but on average, you have to bring in more than you’re shelling out to stay solvent.

Sudan to release woman on death row for apostasy
27 years old Meriam Ibrahim, a Sudanese woman on death row for apostasy had her sentence canceled and was ordered released by a Khartoum court on Monday, the country's official news agency reported.
The Court of Cassation canceled the death sentence against her after defense lawyers presented their case. The court ordered her release.
Ibrahim, whose father was Muslim but who was raised by her Christian mother, was convicted of apostasy for marrying a Christian. Sudan's penal code criminalizes the conversion of Muslims to other religions, a crime punishable by death. Ibrahim married a Christian man from southern Sudan in a church ceremony in 2011. As in many Muslim nations, Muslim women in Sudan are prohibited from marrying non-Muslims, though Muslim men can marry outside their faith.

Referee in USA - Portugal grants first ever World Cup water break
In the 39th minute of the USA's clash with Portugal in Manaus, midfielder Jermaine Jones limped off to get some medical attention for his tattooed knee. Referee Nestor Pitana appeared to use the break in play to call a discretionary water break — the first time this has ever happened at a World Cup.
Due to the heat and humidity at several venues in this tournament, officials are permitted to grant one short hydration break in each half.
Furthermore, a Brazilian judge has ordered mandatory water breaks every 30 minutes if the temperature reaches and exceeds 90 Fahrenheit.
According to the FIFA website, the temperature in the Amazonian stadium for this group G clash reached 86 Fahrenheit, with 66% humidity.
Despite similar temperatures during England's clash with Italy in Manaus last weekend, no water break was given. This lack of respite clearly had its effect on players — Andrea Pirlo was reduced from his normal walking pace to a slightly slower walking pace.

Brazil vs. Croatia: Final score 3-1 in 2014 World Cup Opener
If opening games are anything to go by, then we could be in for a cracker of a World Cup.
The hosts went behind after seven minutes when Marcelo turned a cross into his own net - a goal which was met with stunned silence by the crowd before Neymar answered with a first-half equalizer, and a dive in the box from striker Fred led to the go-ahead goal in the second half on a Neymar penalty kick.
Oscar then added some security in extra time, and Brazil is back on track at the head of Group A.
It could have been worse for Brazil when Neymar clashed with Croatia midfielder Luka Modric, but referee Yuichi Nishimura only produced a yellow card.
In the end, it was a narrow victory for Brazil, but one they'll hope to build on if they can shrug off some of the immense pressure they're under. It was significant before, and despite the win, it may now get worse given the manner of their victory.

Chelsea sign five-year deal with Cesc Fabregas for £30 million from Barcelona
Cesc Fabregas completed his shocking £30million switch to Chelsea yesterday and confirmed Arsenal snubbed the chance to re-sign him. But he told disappointed Arsenal fans on Twitter "Once a gunner, always a gunner" after admitting the club turned down the option to buy him back.
The 27-year-old has returned to the Premier League and will wear the No.4 shirt. The player's former club Arsenal has a buy-back option, inserted when the Spaniard left the Emirates in 2011.

NEW VIDEO: Sir Victor Uwaifo - Bobozi
The song represents the idea of A Legend Reborn. “BOBOZI” is highlife meets pop electro. Sir Victor demonstrates a unique fusion of the contemporary electronic sound with nostalgic highlife melodies. The energetic track is a sure bet on party playlists this summer. He also addresses current societal ills such as the love for money, and the infatuation with social validation. Giving credence to the saying that “Music is Timeless” Sir Victor teams up with young Arstokrat Records producer Leriq to produce the head banging jam.
The BOBOZI video does true justice to the energy that the song brings with arresting visuals. Sir Victor Uwaifo brings a truly contemporary feel to the song. With the ageless musician strumming on his guitar and dishing out his signature dance steps, music lovers young and old are in for a real treat.
BOBOZI is available for purchase on iTunes and Spinlet.
