Attentato Istanbul, colpito il simbolo del ponte tra Europa ed Asia
ISTANBUL A Chechen terrorist responsible for training Russian-speaking militants for ISIS is believed to be the planner of Tuesdays deadly Istanbul airport massacre that killed 43, according to Turkish media.
Akhmed Chatayev was identified on a UN sanctions list as an ISIS leader and was wanted by Russian authorities, Reuters reported citing the pro-government Yeni Safak newspaper. Chatayev had been wanted for links to terrorism since 2008, Russia Today reported, citing Russian news agency Ria Novosti.
Another attacker, also Chechen, was named as Osman Vadinov by the Hurriyet newspaper. Vadinov reportedly arrived in Turkey in 2015 from Raqqa, the Syrian capital of ISIS so-called caliphate. Turkish officials did not confirm either Chatayev or Vadinov as being involved in the attack.
Turkish police on Thursday linked the airport suicide bombers to Russia, Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan, and rounded up 13 more suspects in connection with the attack.State-run Anadolu Agency said the raids were carried out in Istanbul"s Pendik, Basaksehir and Sultanbeyli neighborhoods, which span the city"s Asian and European sides.
Police seized three hunting rifles and documents relating to ISIS.
Authorities said all information suggests the shooting and suicide bombing attack by three assailants late Tuesday on one of the world"s busiest airports was the work of ISIS.
Of those killed, 19 were foreign nationals, three of whom had dual citizenship. More than 230 people were hurt in the attack. Thursday marked a second day of funerals and mourning.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility by the militant group, which used Turkey as a crossing point to establish itself in neighboring Syria and Iraq. ISIS this week boasted to have cells in Turkey, among other countries.
In separate large-scale police operations, nine suspects believed to be linked to ISIS were also detained in the coastal city of Izmir. It was not clear if the suspects had any links to the carnage at the airport.
The report said the suspects were in contact with ISIS militants in Syria and were engaged in "activities that were in line with the organization"s aims and interests," including providing financial sources, recruits and logistical support.
Days before the Istanbul attack, on June 25, security forces killed two suspected Islamic State militants who were trying to cross the border illegally and ignored orders from security forces to stop, according to local media reports.
One of the two militants was wanted by Turkey on suspicion that he would carry out suicide attacks in the capital Ankara or in the southern city of Adana, Anadolu said.
Turkey shares long, porous borders with both Syria and Iraq, where ISIS controls large pockets of territory. The government has blamed ISIS for several major bombings over the past year, including in the capital Ankara, and on tourists in Istanbul.

I have thought of them too and the impression that I got, but at this time of year you don"t know the truth and the difference between fiction and truth is what we get paid to do but I got the sense that the Rangers were not going to be a player at this point."

Johnny Manziel’s Lawyer Accidentally Sends Incriminating Texts About Johnny to Media
John Buhler
Jun 29th 2016 1:54PM
According to TMZ Sports, 2012 Heisman Trophy winner and former Cleveland Browns starting quarterback Johnny Manziel says that he"ll stop partying once he returns from his last vacation in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico on July 1st.
Manziel"s partying led him to be released by the Browns less than two years after drafting him in the first round of the 2014 NFL Draft out of Texas A&M University. He became a locker room distraction and the Browns parted ways with him shortly after new head coach Hue Jackson took over during 2016 NFL free agency.
SEE ALSO: JJ Watt"s 9,000-calorie daily diet includes a carton of eggs, 3 servings of whole wheat pasta, and at least 4 chicken b*****s
Manziel does plan to get back into the NFL, but will have to curb his off-field antics if any respectable organization will even consider signing him. The most recent development in the Manziel downward spiral was a leaked Instagram post of a girl Manziel is partying with down in Cabo San Lucas is seen holding sunscreen and half a dozen small bags of drugs, presumably cocaine.
TMZ Sports spoke with Manziel and he assured them that those drugs weren"t his. He told TMZ Sports that he"s hanging out in a Cabo San Lucas mansion with 20 people, some of whom he doesn"t know, that he"s not doing any drugs on vacation, and plans to get back into the grind of training to get back into the NFL on July 1st.
The NFL has been a league willing to give its athletes second chances, but at this time, Manziel"s partying has made him toxic and no team will want to bring him into their locker room until he gets sober and gets his off the field issues under complete control. He had the talent to be a first round pick, but hasn"t had the maturity to have the staying power in the NFL.

Andrew Luck"s new 6-year, $140 million deal makes him the NFL"s highest-paid player. The 10 players below him are also QBs. Who are they? Phil Friend/IndyStar

$140 million. It"s stupid money. It"s money that we can"t even understand. But Andrew Luck"s going to have to get his head around it with his new contract.
Now, he won"t receive the money in a lump sum, but for the sake of visualizing just how much cash this is, we"re going to pretend he will.
Here"s just how much money Andrew Luck is going to make:
He could buy a Boeing 757 and still have $40 million to spare.
If he donated all his money to Gleaners Food Bank, he could provide 420 million meals to hungry Hoosiers. That would feed every person in the combined populations of Fort Wayne and Evansvillethree meals a day for a year.
He could buy the naming rights for Lucas Oil Stadium. The Lucas family provided a paltry $122 million over 20 years.
He could buy 146 of the most expensive guitar Jim Irsay has ever purchased -- aFender Stratocaster used byBob Dylan.
Since he"s a big reader, he could donate his whole haul to IndyReads and provide76,712 YEARS of literacy training.
Your move, Luck.

What to know now:
1. Supreme Court rulings: The U.S. Supreme Court struck down restrictions in a Texas abortion law Monday, a decision that could lead to challenges to abortion legislation across the nation. In other rulings, the court upheld a law that keeps those convicted of domestic violence from owing a firearm, and set aside the bribery conviction of former Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell.
2. Mississippi ruling: A district judge in Mississippi ruled Monday that clerks in the state cannot deny same-s*x marriage licenses to homosexual couples, despite a new state law set to go into effect on July 1. The law, HB 1523, allows clerks to recuse themselves from providing a marriage license to same-s*x couples if they feel it is against their religious belief. The law does, however, require that clerks provide information on howsame-s*x couples can get a marriage license. "If this opinion by the federal court denies even one Mississippian of their fundamental right to practice their religion, then all Mississippians are denied their 1st Amendment rights, Lt. Gov.Tate Reevessaid Monday. I hope the states attorneys will quickly appeal this decision to the5th Circuitto protect the deeply held religious beliefs of all Mississippians.
3. Tebow helps with emergency: Former University of Florida and NFL quarterback Tim Tebow came to the aid of the family of a man having a heart attack on a Delta Airlines flight to Phoenix on Sunday. As the man became ill, passengers and crew offered to help, according to one witness. Some offered the man medical help while Tebow comforted the family and prayed with a section of the plane, the witness said. I observed a guy walking down the aisle. That guy was Tim Tebow. He met with the family as they cried on his shoulder! I watched Tim pray with the entire section of the plane for this man. He made a stand for G*d in a difficult situation, witness Richard Gotti said.
4. Pat Summitt dies: Pat Summitt, the winningest coach -- male or female -- in NCAA Division I basketball, died early Tuesday. Summitt who led Tennessee"s Lady Vols to eight championships, was diagnosed in 2011 with early-onset Alzheimer"s disease. Summitt was 64.
