Roger Federer beats Marin Cilic to win record eighth Wimbledon title

Image
ALREADY a legend, Roger Federer has elevated even higher into the grand slam stratosphere with an eighth Wimbledon triumph and 19th major success. Defying age and a wounded Marin Cilic, the 35-year-old snared another large chunk of history with a runaway 6-3 6-1 6-4 victory at the sport’s spiritual home. Hampered by a blister on his left foot, Cilic struggled to reproduce the sparkling form which had carried him to a maiden All England Club final, dissolving in tears as his hopes slipped away. The US Open winner slipped over in the fifth game and, rattled, lost seven of the next eight games — and he failed to threaten thereafter. His pile-driving serve deserted him and unforced errors flowed in shattering disappointment. As usual, Federer showed no mercy as he ended a five-year title drought at Wimbledon, adding to his 2003-07, 2009 and 2012 crowns. With 22 winners and a mere eight unforced errors, Federer was classes above his hobbled opponent. One of the sport...

Image
A Kenyan woman has listed the reasons Nairobi women admire Nigerian men and they are quite interesting! According to Cate Mukei, Nairobi women love Nigerian men so much that they would walk through Sahara desert without water and food just to get one. "Some even go to an extent of praying about on to their pastors or signing up to online platforms where they hope to find ogas. Naija brodas on the other hand seem to have mastered some of the weird reasons why our women love them and have perfected them." Below are some of the reasons Nairobi women admire Naija brodas: 1. Visa holders Mogaka you can keep your Nyamira Express bus ticket we are flying to Lagos. Kenyan women naturally love visa holders. In fact they love anybody who was born beyond Eastern Africa. This is a free ticket to flying out of their country, taking selfies and filling our social media timelines in the name of having traveled 'abroad'. 2.

New Studies Say Drinking More Coffee Leads To A Longer Life.

Image
According to two newly published studies, greater consumption of coffee could lead to a longer life. One study surveyed more than 520,000 people in 10 European countries, making it the largest study to date on coffee and mortality, and found that drinking more coffee could significantly lower a person's risk of mortality. The second study focused on non-white populations. After surveying over 185,000 African-Americans, Native Americans, Hawaiians, Japanese-Americans, Latinos and whites, the researchers found that coffee increases longevity across various races. Veronica Wendy Setiawan, associate professor of preventative medicine at USC's Keck School of Medicine, who led the study on nonwhite populations said 'people who drank two to four cups a day had an 18% lower risk of death compared with people who did not drink coffee. These findings are consistent with previous studies that had looked at majority white populations. Given these very diverse popula...

Here is a list of ten people who died the unluckiest deaths: 1. In 1985, a New Orleans man drowned at a pool party attended by over a 100 lifeguards to celebrate a summer with no drownings. What an irony! Back then, at least one person drowned every summer in New Orleans but by the summer of 1985 no one had drowned.

Over 200 people attended the party, half of whom were lifeguards. When the party ended, four lifeguards who were cleaning the pool found the fully clothed body of 31-year-old Jerome Moody at the bottom of the pool?s deep end. 2. In 1982, a man in Arizona died while shooting a 26-f00t-high saguaro cactus to topple it ...
