RASH DECISION Jesse Lingard’s crude hotel video a ‘mistake’, says Man Utd team-mate Marcus Rashford.

A controversial video posted by Jesse Lingard during his holiday with Marcus Rashford has been called a "mistake" by the Manchester United striker. Fans seeing the video, in which the star boasted of his room's views and a friend's "shagging".

While some saw it as

a case of 'boys will be boys', others branded it arrogant and classless.

Both players are in pre-season training on their tour in Australia.

And Rashford, who appeared in the clip, played down the 'mistake'.

He told reporters on Wednesday: “From what I saw of it, people have to understand, he was enjoying his holiday.

"It was a mistake but there is not much more I can say about that.”

In the video, Lingard, 26, toured his Miami hotel suite while remarking that he had "seen a lot of s*** in this room, a lot of f***ing s***".

He then snapped teammate Rashford before passing through the room of friend Jamal Branker, who was pretending to have sex on his bed.

The United star joked: "Look at the f***ing views, look at the f***ing views man! F*** off!

"Right, Rash, I give this and my room a four out of five.

"Now on to Jamal. Shagging there as per! Probably shagging his own hand under that bed. Shagging pillows."

It was later claimed Lingard only wanted to save the Snapchat clip rather than publish it online.

Some defended him, noting that his film was "mild for a lads' holiday".

But others saw it as typical of modern footballers' arrogance.

One commented: "Making yourself look an even bigger b***end and your club a laughing stock."

Another saw it as: "Embarrassing, players like McTominay might not be world beaters, but I would rather see him out training rather than these clowns bragging about their view!"

Chanjo dhidi ya Ukimwi kufanyiwa majaribio Afrika Kusini

Wanasayansi wanasema huenda ikawezesha binadamu kukabiliana na virusi hivyo iwapo itafanikiwa, shirika la habari la AP linasema.

Wakati wa majaribio hayo, ambayo yamepewa jina HVTN 702, wanasayansi wanatarajiwa kuwatumia wanaume na wanawake 5,400 ambao wanashiriki ngono kutoka maeneo 15 nchini Afrika Kusini.

Washiriki hao watakuwa wa umri wa kati ya miaka 18 na 35.

Majaribio hayo yatakuwa makubwa zaidi na ya kina zaidi ya chanjo ya Ukimwi kuwahi kufanyika nchini Afrika Kusini ambapo zaidi ya watu

"Ikitumiwa pamoja na silaha tulizo nazo sasa za kuzuia maambukizi, chanjo hiyo inaweza kuwa msumari wa mwisho katika jeneza la Ukimwi,"

Anthony Fauci, mkurugenzi wa Taasisi ya Taifa ya Maradhi ya Kuambukizana na Mzio ya Marekani (NIAID) amesema kupitia taarifa.

"Hata kama mafanikio yake yatakuwa ya kadiri, hilo linaweza kupunguza pakubwa mzigo unaotokana na maradhi hayo katika nchi zenye viwango vya juu vya maambukizi, mfano Afrika Kusini."

Chanjo ambayo itafanyiwa majaribio chini ya HVTN 702 ina uhusiano na majaribio ya chanjo yaliyofanywa mwaka 2009 nchini Thailand.

Chanjo iliyofanyiwa majaribio mwaka huo iligunduliwa kuwa na mafanikio asilimia 31.2 katika kuzuia maambukizi ya virusi vya Ukimwi katika kipindi cha ufuatilizi cha miaka 3.5 baada ya mtu kupewa chanjo.

Wanasayansi wametayarisha chanjo hiyo mpya mahsusi kutoa kinga pana na kwa muda mrefu na kwa kuangazia zaidi aina ya virusi vinavyopatikana kusini mwa Afrika.

Watakaoshiriki katika majaribio hayo ni watu wa kujitolea.

Wanachaguliwa bila kufuata mpangilio wowote, ambapo kundi moja litapokea dozi ya chanjo kwa kipindi fulani na jingine kipimo kisicho cha chanjo. Washiriki wote watadungwa sindano tano katika kipindi cha mwaka mmoja.

Washiriki watakaoambukizwa virusi vya Ukimwi katika kundi hilo watatumwa kwa wahudumu wa afya ili kupokea matibabu ya kupunguza makali ya virusi hivyo na pia kushauria jinsi ya kupunguza hatari ya kueneza virusi hivyo.

Afrika Kusini ina zaidi ya watu 6.8 milioni ambao wanaishi na virusi vya Ukimwi.

Taifa hilo hata hivyo limezindua mpango mkubwa wa kutoa dawa za kupunguza makali ya ugonjwa huo na kuudhibiti, mpango ambao inasema ndio mkubwa zaidi wa aina yake duniani.

Kiwango cha wastani cha umri wa kuishi kilikuwa kimeshuka sana nchini humo na kufikia miaka 57.1 mwaka 2009 lakini kutokanana na juhudi hizo, kimepanda hadi miaka 62.9 kufikia 2014.

Matokeo ya majaribio hayo ya chanjo yanatarajiwa kutolewa mwishoni mwa mwaka 2020.

Nero Biography Emperor, Theater Actor, Poet (37–68).

As Roman emperor, Nero’s reign was lavish and tyrannical. He killed his mother, persecuted Christians and is said to have "fiddled while Rome burned."

Synopsis

Nero was born in 37 A.D., the nephew of the emperor. After his father’s death, his mother married his uncle and persuaded him to name Nero his successor. Nero took the throne at 17, rebuffed his mother’s attempts to control him, and had her killed. He spent lavishly and behaved inappropriately. He began executing opponents and Christians. In 68, he committed suicide when the empire revolted.

Early Life and Ascent to the Throne

Nero was born as Lucius Domitius Ahenobarbus, the son of Gnaeus Domitius Ahenobarbus and Agrippina, who was the great-granddaughter of the emperor Augustus. He was educated in the classical tradition by the philosopher Seneca and studied Greek, philosophy and rhetoric.

After Ahenobarbus died in 48 A.D., Agrippina married her uncle, the emperor Claudius. She persuaded him to name Nero as his successor rather than his own son, Britannicus, and to offer his daughter, Octavia, as Nero’s wife, which he did in 50 A.D.

Claudius died in 54 A.D., and it is widely suspected that Agrippina had Claudius poisoned. Nero presented himself to the Senate to deliver a eulogy in Claudius’s honor and was named Emperor of Rome. He took the name Nero Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus, and ascended to the throne at the age of 17.

Agrippina’s Influence

Agrippina was domineering and attempted to influence her son’s rule. She was angered by the more moderate advice of Nero’s advisors, his former tutor Seneca and the commander of the Praetorian Guard, Burrus.

Agrippina also tried to assert her authority in Nero’s private life. When Nero began an affair with Claudia Acte, a former slave, and threatened to divorce Octavia, Agrippina advocated for Octavia and demanded that her son dismiss Acte. Although he and Octavia remained married, Nero began living openly with Acte as his wife in spite of his mother’s protests.

After Nero spurned his mother’s influence in both public and private affairs, she was infuriated. She began championing Britannicus, then still a minor, as emperor. However, Britannicus died suddenly in 55, the day before he was to be proclaimed an adult. It is widely assumed that Nero poisoned Britannicus, although Nero claimed that he died from a seizure. Even after Britannicus had died, Agrippina tried to agitate the public against Nero, and Nero banished her from the family palace.

By 58, Nero had dismissed Acte and fallen for Poppaea Sabina, a noblewoman who was married to a member of the Roman aristocracy. He wanted to marry her, but public opinion did not look favorably upon a divorce from Octavia and his mother staunchly opposed it. Fed up with his mother’s interference and no longer content with her removal from the palace, Nero took matters into his own hands. Agrippina was murdered in 59 at Nero’s command.

Nero’s Reign

Until the year 59, Nero was described as a generous and reasonable leader. He eliminated capital punishment, lowered taxes and allowed slaves to bring complaints against their masters. He supported the arts and athletics above gladiator entertainment and gave aid to other cities in crisis. Although he was known for his nighttime frolicking, his actions were good-natured, if irresponsible and self-indulgent.

But after Agrippina’s murder, Nero descended into a hedonic lifestyle that was marked not just by lavish self-indulgence but tyranny. He spent exorbitant amounts of money on artistic pursuits and around 59 A.D., began to give public performances as a poet and lyre player, a significant breach of etiquette for a member of the ruling class.

When Burrus died and Seneca retired in the year 62, Nero divorced Octavia and had her killed, then married Poppaea. Around this time accusations of treason against Nero and the Senate began to surface, and Nero began to react harshly to any form of perceived disloyalty or criticism. One army commander was executed for badmouthing him at a party; another politician was exiled for writing a book that made negative remarks about the Senate. Other rivals were executed in the ensuing years, allowing Nero to reduce opposition and consolidate his power.

The Great Fire

By 64, the scandalous nature of Nero’s artistic antics may have begun to cause controversy, but the public’s attention was diverted by the Great Fire. The fire began in stores at the southeastern end of the Circus Maximus and ravaged Rome for 10 days, decimating 75 percent of the city. Although accidental fires were common at the time, many Romans believed Nero started the fire to make room for his planned villa, the Domus Aurea. Whether or not Nero started the fire, he determined that a guilty party must be found, and he pointed the finger at the Christians, still a new and underground religion. With this accusation, persecution and torture of the Christians began in Rome.

Political Demise and Death

After the Great Fire, Nero resumed plans for the Domus Aurea. In order to finance this project, Nero needed money and set about to get it however he pleased. He sold positions in public office to the highest bidder, increased taxes and took money from the temples. He devalued currency and reinstituted policies to confiscate property in cases of suspected treason.

These new policies resulted in the Pisonian conspiracy, a plot formed in 65 by Gaius Calpurnius Piso, an aristocrat, along with knights, senators, poets and Nero's former mentor, Seneca. They planned to assassinate Nero and crown Piso the ruler of Rome. The plan was discovered, however, and the leading conspirators, as well as many other wealthy Romans, were executed.

Just three years later, in March 68, the governor Gaius Julius Vindex rebelled against Nero's tax policies. He recruited another governor, Servius Sulpicius Galba, to join him and to declare himself emperor. While these forces were defeated and Galba was declared a public enemy, support for him increased, despite his categorization as a public enemy. Even Nero’s own bodyguards defected in support of Galba.

Fearing that his demise was imminent, Nero fled. He planned to head east, where many provinces were still loyal to him, but had to abandon the plan after his officers refused to obey him. He returned to his palace, but his guards and friends had left. He ultimately received word that the Senate had condemned him to death by beating and so he decided to commit suicide. Unable to carry out the deed by himself, however, his secretary, Epaphroditos, assisted him. As he died, Nero was said to have exclaimed, ‘What an artist dies in me!' He was the last of the Julio-Claudian emperors.

Unamjua Charles Robert Darwin?

Charles Robert Darwin (12 Februari 1809 - 19 Aprili 1882) alikuwa mwanasayansi Mwingereza katika karne ya 19.

Amekuwa mashuhuri kutokana na nadharia yake ya maendeleo ya uhai (mageuko ya spishi).

Nadharia hii yasema kuwa spishi zote za viumbehai vimetokana na spishi asilia zilizogeuka baada ya muda. Mageuko haya hufuata uteuzi asilia yaani viumbehai wanaolingana vizuri zaidi na mazingira wanaishi na kuzaa kushinda viumbehai wasiolingana nayo.

Kwa njia hiyo tabia za viumbehai wanaofaa vizuri zaidi zinazidi kuendelezwa kwa sababu watoto wao hurithi tabia hizi. Lakini tabia za viumbehai wasiofaa sana zinaweza kutoweka kwa sababu wanakufa mapema na hawana watoto wengi wanaoendeleza tabia zao.

Utoto na masomo

Alizaliwa mjini Shrewsbury (Uingereza) kama mtoto wa tano wa daktari Robert Darwin na Susannah Darwin (née Wedgwood).

Baada ya kumaliza shule alijiunga na chuo kikuu] cha Edinburgh (Uskoti) 1825 akajiandikisha katika idara ya tiba lakini hakupenda upasuaji. Alitumia muda mwngi kufuata kozi za biolojia, jiografia na jiolojia nje ya masomo ya tiba. Alifuatana mara nyingi na wataalamu walipofanya uchunguzi wa wanyama, mimea au mawe.

Baba baada ya kuona hafai kuwa daktari alimwandikisha katika masomo ya teolojia kwa shabaha ya kuwa mchungaji wa kanisa la Anglikanaaliyomaliza mwaka 1831.

Safari ya MS Beagle

Baada ya kumaliza masomo haya Darwin alipata nafasi ya kujiunga kama mshiriki na safari ya kisayansi ya jahazi MS Beagleiliyotakiwa kuzunguka dunia yote kwa kusudi la kuboresha ramani hasa za pwani la Amerika Kusini. Darwin alipewa nafasi ya mwanaviumbe bila malipo ya kuongozana na kushauriana na nahodha na kiongozi wa safari kuhusu wanyama na mimea visivyojulikana na vitakavyopatikana safarini.

Katika safari hii Darwin aliona Amerika Kusini na visiwa vya Pasifiki. Akaona mengi na kushika kumbukumbu yake akakusanya mimea na miili ya wanyama na kuibeba naye kwa ajili ya maonyesho katika jumba la makumbusha la historia ya viumbe.

Kwenye visiwa vya Galapagos aliona ya kwamba kila kisiwa kilikuwa na spishi za ndege pia kobe zilivyotofautiana kidogo kati ya kisiwa na kisiwa.

Mapinduzi ya kisayansi

aada ya kurudi Uingereza mwaka 1836 Darwin alianza kuchunguza sampuli zote alizokusanya. Alipata kazi kama katibu wa shirika la jiolojia.

Alipochungulia sampuli za Galapagos hasa alipata dhana ya kwamba spishi hizi zote za karibu zilitokana na aina moja tu iliyowahi kufika kwenye visiwa hivyo lakini baadaye zilianza kuwa tofauti katika kila kisiwa na kuwa spishi ya pekee. Kama hiyo ilikuwa kweli spishi hizi hazikuumbwa hivyo tangu mwanzo.

Darwin aliendelea na utafiti wa sampuli zake na kutoa masomo mbalimbali na kuyatafakari. 1859 alitoa kitabu kuhusu mageuko ya spishi kwa njia yauteuzi asilia (On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life) alimoeleza nadharia yake.

Kitabu kilikuwa kama bomu kati ya watu wa sayansi na wa dini.

Darwin alishambuliwa mara nyingi ya kuwa mafundisho yake yanapinga taarifa ya uumbaji katika Biblia. Lakini hiyo inategemea jinsi masimulizi yake yanavyosomwa: si lazima mwamini achukue kila kitu kama ilivyoandikwa, kwa sababu Biblia hailengi kutufundisha sayansi, bali njia ya wokovu.

Leo hii nadharia yake inakubaliwa na wanasayansi karibu wote hata kama bado kuna kiasi cha upingamizi dhidi yake kwa sababu za kisayansi na za kidini.
