The final match of Champions league

The result let me down, but It was not surprise anymore

Barca is the best team in the world at the moment.

United did nothing wrong, the problem is that Barca was too perfect.

Even if I will not be in England in next year, I believe that United must get better and claim the

champions league.

 World's Oldest Man, Walter Breuning, Dies In US Aged 114


Breuning died of natural causes in a Montana hospital. He had been in hospital since the beginning of the month with an undisclosed illness.
Breuning was 26 days younger than Besse Cooper of Georgia, USA, who was the world's oldest person at 114.

In an interview last autumn, Breuning said that the secret to his old age was eating just two meals a day, working as long as he could and always embracing change - especially death.
"We're all going to die. Some people are scared of dying. Never be afraid to die. Because you're born to die," he said.

Breuning was born on Sept 21, 1896, in Minnesota and spent his early years in South Dakota. That first decade of the 1900s was literally a dark age for his family.

They had no electricity or running water. A bath for young Walter would require his mother to fetch water from the well outside and heat it on the coal-burning stove.

Future Queen Seen In Bean

After toilet seats, teabags and baby bibs, Kate Middleton probably thought she had seen her face just about everywhere.


But in a sign that royal wedding hysteria may have reached fever pitch, the future Queen’s visage has now appeared on- a jelly bean.


Two weeks before Kate walks down the aisle to marry Prince William, trainee accountant Wesley Hosie, of Taunton, Somerset, is convinced he can see the bride-to-be staring back at him from the yellow sweet. Mr Hosie, 25, ‘spotted’ the 29-year-old while he tucked into a 700g jar from The Jelly Bean Factory with his girlfriend Jessica White, 24.


Kate’s facial features, long hair and even smile are visible in the yellow sweet’s blotches. Apparently.


“As Jessica opened the jar, I saw her immediately,” said Mr Hosie. “She was literally staring back at me.”


Richard Cullen, joint manager of The Jelly Bean Factory in Dublin, said: “This sounds truly incredible, I would have to see the bean myself to believe it.


"All of our beans are handmade and this looks like one of our red speckled mango beans, the natural speckles are unique to each and every jelly bean due to the handmade process.’


The couple now plan to sell the “lucky” bean on eBay and hope to pocket as much as £500. Mr Hosie said: “Given that the royal wedding is only a few weeks away, we hope to make a few pounds out of it by selling it on the internet to a collector.”


You might think even the keenest royal enthusiast would be wary of parting with hard-earned cash to secure the bean.
