Head next edge 85

6 ROME (AP) — Italy is poised to elect a new president, meant to serve as the nation’s moral compass and foster unity by rising above the political fray. Silvio Berlusconi thinks he fits the bill. The billionaire media mogul and three times premier, who entered politics nearly 30 years ago with his Forza Italia party, is maneuvering to add Italy’s highest office to his resume. No matter that he had a tax fraud conviction which got him expelled from the Senate. As for his moral example, the 85-year-old has long shrugged off outrage over his dalliances with young women at his “bunga bunga” soirees, once declaring “I’m no saint." In the most notorious case, he was ultimately acquitted of charges that he allegedly paid for sex with an underage girl. From his latest villa on the Appia Antica, the ancient Roman consular road, Berlusconi, has for weeks been lobbying lawmakers outside his center-right fold for their votes when they … [Read more...] about Italy’s next moral compass?

A man is suing a cat owner for personal injury, after the heavy pet tumbled eight stories from a balcony and crashed on top of the passerby, smacking him on the head. The incident, which took place in Italy's northern city of Turin, is going to court next week as the 56-year-old man who broke the cat's fall claims to have sustained serious neck and vertebrae injuries from the impact with the hefty feline. The cat, which reportedly weighed 13lbs., died upon landing. "The story is surreal but true," Italian newspaper, La Republicca remarked, according to a translation by Yahoo News. "You wouldn't expect to end up in hospital with a neck trauma because a cat had fallen on you from an eighth-floor apartment." The injured man said he was making his way to Turin's Santa Rita market area during a visit to town in July of last year, when the doomed feline slipped from the terrace of its owner's home and fell on top of the unfortunate pedestrian.

(Reuters) - The Africa Cup of Nations finals head into the knockout stages from Sunday, lifting the stakes and adding excitement to a tournament that came alive over the last days after a static opening week. Hosts Cameroon lead a heavyweight list of contenders into the last 16 but it is the likes of the Comoros Islands, Equatorial Guinea and Gambia who have stolen the spotlight, shrugging off their minnow status to advance to the second round. Equatorial Guinea’s 1-0 win over defending champions Algeria and Comoros’ 3-2 triumph over Ghana this week were among the great upsets of tournament history and sent two of the favourites tumbling out. They also injected drama into a competition where nine of the first 12 matches ended in 1-0 scorelines. Five goals from striker Vincent Aboubaker led Cameroon to the top of their group although without much conviction but drawing the Comoros in the second round is arguably a favourable outcome for the host country. If they advance to … [Read more...] about Soccer-Cup of Nations heads into knockout round
