This one happened early this morning around past 6am. Three guys attacked the owner of this car as she descended the bridge to enter Victoria Island (Muson Centre area) on her way to work.

Jose Mourinho is to be the subject of an individual legal claim from former Chelsea team doctor Eva Carneiro in addition to the action she is bringing against the club for constructive dismissal. Legal papers will be served on Mourinho this week as part of separate but connected claims against him and against the club. It means the Portuguese manager will have to appear in person at an employment tribunal unless the case is settled out of court beforehand. Under employment law, an individual can be personally liable for damages if victimisation or discrimination can be proved. 

There is a cynical theory that some Chelsea players actually want Jose Mourinho sacked. That they are not putting it in for him. That he has become the hoary football cliche - a manager who has lost the dressing room. He denies it, of course, but certainly on Saturday Chelsea appeared sluggish compared to Jurgen Klopp's revitalised Liverpool. On Sunday the BBC quoted an unnamed player saying he would rather lose than win for Mourinho. For there is another way of looking at this debacle - although it won't have occurred to those secretly revelling in Mourinho's downfall. It's not him, it's them.

Tevez, who returned to boyhood side Boca in July after back-to-back Serie A title wins at Juventus, was overcome with emotion at the final whistle.

Chelsea sources claim that the pressure on Mourinho to turn results around following their sixth defeat of the season in the Barclays Premier League - 3-1 at home by Liverpool on Saturday - has left him close to breaking point.

Traders said the regulator set the new rate for market closing price on Thursday, making this the 11th adjustment since the bank introduced tight currency controls in February.

Traders said the present method of exchange rate fixing had led to an erosion of the nation’s external reserves, which stood at $30.13bn as of October 27, down from $30.38bn a month earlier.

But let me explain the journey that had taken me here.   Sexual to sex-starved For as long as I can remember, I’ve always felt very confident in my own sexuality.
