PHOTO: Arsenal Signs Josip Drmic
According to a source in Germany, the new Arsene Wenger's recruit is Josip Drmic.
The news was broken by Lothar Matthaus and relayed on Twitter by colleague and former Swindon and Middlesbrough forward Jan Aage Fjortoft.
21-year-old Drmic has been linked with a move to the Emirates in recent days, following his 15 goals in 26 appearances for the Bundesliga side this term.
Should reports prove accurate, the youngster would be a typical Arsene Wenger signing, hungry to impress in the Premier League.
Drmic only joined Nuremberg from FC Zurich in his native Switzerland last summer, but has caught the eye in Germany.
Jan Aage Fjortoft wrote on Twitter: ‘My Sky colleague Lothar Matthäus just said on Sky: Drmic’s wife has been looking for an apartment in London. Drmic will be Arsenal-player.
‘Josip Drmic is the Swiss-striker at Nurnberg. 15 goals so far. 47 per cent of all Nurnberg goals. Matthäus: – Will be Arsenal-player.

10 sure ways to get a flat stomach
Spring is the perfect time to start thinking about ways to get a flat tummy and get ready for bikini season. While sit-ups, crunches, steam engines and many other abdominal workouts are great, it’s not enough to get a flat stomach.
In fact, these workouts are perfect for strengthening your stomach muscles and they don’t help you lose stomach fat. To see those trained, sculpted belly muscles, you need to eat healthy and do the right set of workouts. Start following these tips for getting a flat stomach and wear your swimsuit with confidence.
1. Boost your protein intake
Increase your protein intake to speed up your metabolism by having 4 hardboiled egg whites for breakfast. This way you will speed up your metabolism in the morning and become closer to your fitness goal. The point is that protein-rich foods take much more work to digest, absorb, metabolize, and use. This means you burn much more calories and you feel full much longer. Protein is certainly important for ensuring you lose fat without losing muscle. And it’s a surefire way to get a flat tummy.
2. Have your apple every day
One of the most effective ways to get a flat stomach is to eat your fruits and veggies every day. Aim for 2-4 fruits and 4-6 vegetables per day to improve your immunity and increase your fiber intake. I recommend you to start eating an apple every day. Apples contain pectin that helps reduce cholesterol. Plus, apples are a natural hunger suppressant.
3. Add weight training to your workout routine
The more muscle you have, the more calories you burn, even when you don’t exercise. That’s because weight training boosts your metabolism. When you only do cardio workouts without weight training, you lose the muscle mass as well as the muscle in your belly. To get a flat stomach, make sure you add weight training to your workout routine.
4. Drink up
Drinking enough water each day aids in weight loss that can help you get a flat stomach. Try drinking a glass of water before eating and you’ll be less hungry and you’ll eat less. Sometimes we can mistake thirst for hunger, so you need to learn to recognize hunger and the best way to do it is to drink water before every meal.
5. Improve your cardio workout
To achieve a flat stomach, you should get 3 60-minute high intensity workouts. Try running for 10 minutes, then go for a 1 minute sprint, do 5-10 burpees and 15-20 push-ups. To get the best results you need to repeat this workout at least 5 times. However, begin with 1 set and then try to build your stamina to repeat it 5 times.
6. Don’t eat late at night
What time you eat could be the key to getting a flat stomach. Don’t eat anything 2 or 3 hours before going to bed. I know it’s difficult, but it’s important. Your metabolism slows when you sleep and it means you don’t burn any calories you ate before going to bed. Although there are many healthy bedtime snacks, it’s better to eat in the morning. Again, try drinking a glass of water, you might be thirsty, not hungry.
7. Plyometrics
Plyometrics are great anaerobic exercises that you can do to get a flat stomach faster. When you do plyometrics, you work out at 90% intensity and you boost your metabolic rate, meaning you burn a lot of calories. Don’t think these exercises are difficult and boring, they are actually fun. Give it a try and you’ll like them.
8. Reduce your salt intake
Not only will reducing salt intake help you get a flat tummy, it will improve your overall health. When you consume too much salt, you may suffer from bloating, which is not your fitness goal. If you can’t reduce your salt intake, you can begin using kosher salt or sea salt to see better results and feel better. These kinds of salt contain less sodium and they can help reduce bloating.
9. Ditch beer and soda
Beer and soda are the biggest enemies of a flat stomach. If you want a flatter tummy, cut those drinks. Even seltzer water is bad for you. This will certainly help reduce bloating and calories that are in beer and soda.
10. Strengthen your body core
When it comes to strengthening your core, it doesn’t mean you should do crunches or some other hard exercises, there are some easiest ways to do that. You just need to sit up straight and be aware of your breathing. The thing is that when you tighten your stomach when breathing, it gets used to being tight. Yoga can also help you strengthen your body core.
In fact, it’s not hard to achieve a flat stomach, you just need to want it. Eat healthy, get moving and you will certainly make your dreams of a flat and toned tummy into your reality. What’s your favorite way to get a flat stomach?

ACN Says Delta State Government Spent N9 Billion Allocation In Three Day
In January 2013, government of Delta State spent the Excess Crude allocation - a total of almost nine and a half billion naira, N9,433,445,759.13 - in less than three days in a totally "frivolous" and "scandalous" manner. The Anti-Corruption Network have expressed alarm over the "unparalleled" corrupution and greed for money of the lawmakers.
In less than a week, Delta State Government spent a total of N9,424,933,907.72, leaving a balance of only N8,511,851.41
The ACN focused on Delta State as part of their efforts to "beam their searchlight" on various states of Nigeria. According to the official statement issued on March 25 by Executive Secretary Dino Melaye, the money was spent in such a manner which raises some questions, such as:
Why N279,020,000 was spent on gifts alone?
Had November street maintenance, October overhead, several GHP overheads, construction of Trans-Warri-Ode-Itsekiri Bridge and Access road not been already included in the 2012 budget?
Why the paragraph Award to Members of Delta State Contingent, Eko 2012 Games, Lagos, is repeated twice with different amount?
What is a "scandalous" title "Various Government House payments," N216,000,000.00?
Also, Mr. Melaye says in the statement, the document included several controversial points, such as:
Estacode (funds intended to cover traveling costs) to Vienna, Austria and Los Angeles, N31,465,491.00.
Hosting of Senior Course 35 participants of the Armed Forces Command and Staff College, Jabi at N37,258,500.00.
Two times Assistance to hosting of National Health Summit cost put at N45,000,000.00 and N35,000,000.00 respectively, while the proper hosting of same event cost N40,504,000.00.
Another tittle GHP overhead (O/H) different from the earlier ones with no month in reference put at N558, 000.000.00 and O/H put at N100,000,000.
Some "funny" tittles such as printed release warrants (H) (K) and (M) put at the cost of N939,559,371.96, and N337,417,202.61 and N444,165,589.00 respectively. Meanwhile, a different printed release warrant which cost is put at N1,988,308,165.58
Mr. Melaye condemns the "desperation" to consume the said N9 billion, describing it as "unparalleled" in the history of corruption. He decries that the deed was done with no tangible social amenity or infrastructure in mind. He said a proper petition to all Anti-graft Agencies would be forwarded this week, adding that corruption in all states must stop and promising to conduct similar checks in every Nigerian state.
