Iraqi soccer player gunned down at game
An Iraqi soccer player was shot dead by a fan during the final moments of a match between local rivals Sinjar and Buhayra.
The player was shot in the head just as he was set to score a game-tying goal, according to a report on the BBC Web site.
Police in the city of Hilla, which is located about 50 miles south of Baghdad, say they have arrested the suspected killer and are currently investigating the incident.

Why parents should always check their children’s homework before they hand it in:
A first grade girl handed in the drawing below for a homework assignment.
After it was graded and the child brought it home, she returned to school the next day with the following note:
Dear Ms. Davis,
I want to be very clear on my child’s illustration. It is NOT of me on a dance pole on a stage in a strip joint. I work at Home Depot and had commented to my daughter how much money we made in the recent snowstorm. This photo is of me selling a shovel.

Kaka to Manchester City???
A delegation from Manchester City will fly to Milan this morning to try to secure an astonishing £103 million deal to sign Kaká. Mark Hughes, the City manager, warned that the club “cannot hang about” if they are serious about their intention to acquire the former World Player of the Year.
City held a first round of negotiations with AC Milan about the proposed world-record deal on Tuesday and were encouraged to return to Italy today for a second meeting. Garry Cook, the executive chairman, and Simon Pearce, a representative of Sheikh Mansour, City’s wealthy owner, are scheduled to arrive in Milan this morning for a meeting at which they hope to persuade Kaká to join a club who are four points above the relegation zone in the Barclays Premier League.
Cook and Pearce expect to hold further negotiations with Adriano Galliani, the Milan vice-president, today, but also, more critically, they hope to hold face-to-face discussions with Bosco Leite, Kaká’s father and principal adviser.
Doubts have been raised about whether Kaká truly wishes to join City, who have offered him a contract that is potentially worth a staggering £500,000 a week. But, having been surprised by Milan’s indication that they would sell, the Brazil forward has authorised his father to listen to City’s sales pitch. If Kaká chooses to stay in Milan in the short term, Real Madrid are likely to make a renewed bid for his services at the end of the season.
