Agent to Arda Turan Says He Is Not Leaving Barcelona Despite Report Move to Arsenal or China

Arda Turan will not leave Barcelona this summer despite reports that a move to Arsenal is at an advanced stage, his agent has said.


Turan, 30, has struggled to break into the side on a regular basis since joining from Atletico Madrid in 2015, and his subdued celebration after last month's Copa del Rey triumph was interpreted by some reports as a sign of his impending departure.

The Chinese Super League has been mentioned as a possible destination, but recent reports suggest Arsenal are now best placed to land Turan if he leaves in the summer.

But the Turkey international's agent Ahmet Bulut told reporters: "Arda's not going anywhere. Barcelona are happy with him and we've not spoken with any club about a transfer.

"The news being reported about him leaving the club annoys Arda. The board don't like the rumours either. Arda Turan will finish his contract -- he will stay until 2020."

However, reports in Spain have said Turan, along with defender Jeremy Mathieu, would be allowed to leave for the right fee as new coach Ernesto Valverde looks to reshape the squad.

Injuries and the fierce competition for places saw him end last season on the periphery of the first team.

Tech: ISRO Finally Launches GSLV-Mk III Rocket and Injects The GSAT-19 Into It's Intended Orbit (Photo)

India on Monday scored a double success, launching its latest – and heaviest so far – communication satellite GSAT-19 with its brand new and heaviest rocket – the Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle-Mark III (GSLV-Mk III) with a cryogenic engine, which performed ably on its maiden flight. The GSLV-Mk III rocket, on its first developmental flight, slung the 3,136 kg communication satellite in a geosynchronous transfer orbit from where it would be taken up to its final geostationary orbit.


While Indian space scientists named the 640 tonne rocket “fat boy”, the Telugu media nicknamed it “Baahubali”, as like the hero in the massively successful film lifts a heavy Lingam, it carried the heaviest satellite by an Indian rocket. Precisely at 5.28 p.m., the rocket began its ascent towards space from the second launch pad at the Satish Dhawan Space Centre (SDSC) at the Sriharikota spaceport here and just over 16 minutes into its flight, slung the GSAT-19 at its intended orbit at an altitude of 179 km.

“It is a historic day.. both the GSLV Mk-III and the GSAT-19 launch have been successful.. we are looking forward to its (GSAT-19) operations,” Indian Space Research Organisation Chairman A.S. Kiran Kumar said. “This month there are lot of activities. On June 23, there will be a PSLV (Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle) and on June 28, a GSAT-17 satellite launch,” he added. He said Prime Minister Narendra Modi had congratulated the ISRO team.

“The cryogenic engine performed flawlessly. We have mastered the cryogenic technology,” Liquid Propulsion Systems Centre Director S. Somanath said. The GSAT-19, as per the ISRO, is a multi-beam satellite that carries Ka and Ku band forward and return link transponders and geostationary radiation spectrometer (GRASP) to monitor and study the nature of charged particles and the influence of space radiation on satellites and their electronic components.

The satellite, which has a life span of 10 years, also features certain advanced spacecraft technologies including miniaturised heat pipe, a fibre optic gyro, micro electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) accelerometer, Ku-band TTC transponder, as well an indigenous lithium-ion battery. The GSLV-Mk III is a three stage/engine rocket. The core of first stage is fired with solid fuel and its two motors by liquid fuel. The second is liquid fuel and the third is the cryogenic engine.

“The rocket’s design carrying capacity is four tonnes. The payload will be gradually increased in future flights,” Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre Director K. Sivan had told IANS. The Indian space agency had flown a similar rocket without the cryogenic engine but with 3.7-tonne payload in 2014 mainly to test its structural stability and aerodynamics. Earlier Somanath told IANS that the inputs of the 2014 mission enabled the ISRO to reduce the rocket load by around 20 per cent.

Interestingly, GSLV-Mk III at around 43 metres is slightly shorter than Mk-II version that is around 49 metres tall. ISRO officials told IANS that due to the increase in the diameters of various stages, the height got reduced despite a drastic increase in the weight – from around 415 ton of GSLV-Mk II to 640 ton in GSLV-Mk III. “The new rocket may be slightly short but has more punch power,” said an ISRO official.

India presently has two rockets — the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle and GSLV-Mk II — with a lift-off mass of 415 tonnes and a carrying capacity of 2.5 tonnes. India puts foreign satellites into orbit for a fee using its lighter PSLV. However the weight of third party satellites is not much. Revenue for launching satellites depends on the satellite’s weight – higher the weight, higher the revenue.

The GSLV-Mk III, when its graduates from its development flight status to operational status, may look at flying heavier foreign satellites. Indian space agency officials said the new rocket would save the country foreign exchange as it can launch the country’s communication satellites instead of going to a foreign space agency for launch services. The GSAT-18 satellite launched in 2016 using Arianespace’s rocket weighed 3,404 kg which is well within the GSLV-Mk III’s capacity.

However, India may not become a serious player in the global communication satellite launch market. Industry sources said globally the trend is the weight of communication satellites is going up while the weight of earth observation satellites has come down. A major portion of communication satellites that are sent up now weigh around six tons and above.

Anthony Martial Agent Says The Player Has No Reason To Leave Manchester United

Anthony Martial's agent has said the forward has "no reason" to leave Manchester United despite finding himself on the fringes of the first team last season.


Following his 2015 arrival from Monaco, Martial, 21, made 32 Premier League appearances in his maiden season in England -- all but two of which were starts -- while netting 11 times under Louis van Gaal to finish as United's leading scorer.

However, his progress was stunted following the arrival of Jose Mourinho last summer, the success of new signing Zlatan Ibrahimovic and the flourishing of Marcus Rashford and Jesse Lingard, all of which contributed to limiting the France international's opportunities last term.

Though he played in 25 Premier League matches, he made just 18 starts and found the net only four times, while his reduced playing time led to France coach Didier Deschamps opting to leave him out of his squad for this month's internationals.

West Ham have been touted as potential suitors for Martial -- who signed a four-year contract upon his arrival at Old Trafford -- should he decide to seek a fresh opportunity.

However, Martial's agent, Philippe Lamboley, insisted Martial's future is bright and he wants to remain at United unless the club decide otherwise.

"I would like every 21-year-old player to have already played 180 games with the pros," Lamboley told Journal du Dimanche.

"Anthony's career is quite simply exceptional. He has two years left on his contract, and there is no reason today for him to leave Manchester.

"If Ed Woodward [United vice-president] calls me to tell me he wishes to see him leave, things will be different. But that's not what he said to me during our last meeting."

38 Years Old Lady Got Delivered From Bedwetting and Drunkenness By Pastor TB Joshua (Photos)


For Miss Auguste Da Costa, a senior interpreter in the Namibia Court, life was a terrible contradiction. On the one hand, a committed professional while on the other hand suffering from bedwetting and a consuming addiction to alcohol.

The curse of bedwetting which started from birth robbed her of marriage and a social life and disgraced her right through her life from when she was a student. Her classmates that witnessed her bedwet in the school hostel would spread the rumour that she was a bedwetter and before long, everyone around her knew. It was a stigma that followed her everywhere she went.

To drown her embarrassment and pain, she started drinking alcohol at the age of 15.

She soon became addicted to this vice and spent all her money on feeding her addiction. She would go to the bar to drink alcohol even while food was still cooking on the stove.

When she was about to lose hope of ever overcoming these afflictions, she stumbled upon Emmanuel TV and decided that The SCOAN would be her final bus-stop. The words of T.B. Joshua rang in her heart when he said, “God can turn a drunkard into a sober person. When you make a mistake, don’t run from God – run to Him.”


Desperate to receive her freedom, she received the Morning Water and ministered it in Jesus’ name. The curse of bedwetting that had plagued her for 38 years disappeared as she discovered that from that very night onwards, something will wake her up each time she needs to go to the toilet in the night. Overjoyed at this deliverance, she testified that four years has passed and she has not wet the bed ever since.

The alcohol addiction was equally banished from her life through the Morning Water as the desire to drink the alcohol completely disappeared. Her double deliverance was followed by a double breakthrough as she was sponsored her government to study a course in Germany and she passed with flying colours.

Forever grateful to God, she advised the viewers to always put God first in their lives.

Tech: Next WhatsApp Update May Include a New Feature of "Live Location"

WhatsApp has submitted a new update in the Google Play beta program. Tagged as version 2.27.213 the update reveals some new features as compared to the last version and was first reported on
WABetainfo.


Key among these new features is ‘Live Location’. The update basically reveals the location icon of the user in the chat list upon enabling the live location option inside Privacy settings.

The live location has a Green icon and also comes with an option (“Send this location”) to share the live location. This new option has replaced the normal location sharing option which was available in previous beta version. The live location option used to be disabled by default but it will soon be enabled (as a default) once the developers are sure of it being bug free.


Users will also be able to send text status updates to their contacts with a new option called “New text status” which can be managed in Status under Privacy setting. Users will also be able to customise their text status with different fonts (two options available), colors and insert emoji to it.


WhatsApp will choose a random color everytime the user has to update their status. For now, there is no option to choose a custom color of your choice from the palette. If users want to update their status with a message from a chat thread, this is now possible, but without customisations. If they want to customise and edit it, they will have to select message > Share > WhatsApp and select ‘My Status’.

Sometimes photos and videos shared from the Gallery gets delivered to recipients in a random order. WhatsApp is said to have fixed is this annoying problem in the new update.

Lastly, users will also be able to see their recent photos by swiping up the screen after they open the camera in the app.

Indeed, these are features and improvements visible in the beta version of the app. However, you can expect these to arrive in the coming consumer updates.

Tech: Virtual Assistant of Google Facing Widespread Outage on "Home" Devices

Google pinned a lot of hope on its virtual assistant ‘Home’ to take on Amazon’s ‘Alexa‘ but it appears that it has gone bonkers with the users reporting indifferent behaviour from ‘Home’.


The virtual assistant is spitting out errors instead of controlling smart home devices and answering questions. “According to multiple online complaints, there’s a Google Home outage affecting a significant portion of users,” tech website, Android Police, reported on Monday. To know if Home is affected, users need to use a trigger phrase and it will respond with “Hmm, something went wrong. Try again in a few seconds,” or “There was a glitch. Try again in a few seconds.”

“Most users say the issues started popping up in the last day or two and today Google Home has a nearly 100 percent failure rate,” the report said. What is interesting is that other devices with Google Assistant are working fine.

While some owners reported that a hard reset of ‘Home’ fixed the issue, many others still had problems after resetting.

Early in May, according to
reports , Google had introduced ‘Assistant’, at its annual developer conference, and could understand different voices while Siri, Apple’s virtual assistant, had difficulty in understanding Indian accents.
