A lot of playing and retired footballers are currently in Antalya, Turkey. Most arrived yesterday and were scheduled to leave tomorrow after playing in Eto'o's charity match scheduled to take place today July 16th in celebration of the 10th anniversary of his foundation.

Why Turkish soldiers staged a coup — and ultimately failed

An attempted military coup by a faction within the Turkish armed forces calling itself the"Peace at Home Council" was stifled in less than 24 hours after Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan called on his supporters to take to the streets and repel the uprising.

Earlier Friday night, the soldiers stormed Turkey's state-run broadcaster and said they had seized power, taken over the government, and declared martial law. They deployed forces onto the streets of Istanbul and Ankara, Turkey's largest city and capital, respectively, and closed two major bridges leading into Istanbul.

At least256 people were killed in the clashes, according to Turkey's prime minister. But the uprising itself was repelled rather quickly. Many soldiers were either arrested, had been brutally beaten by protesters, or surrendered by early Saturday morning, allowing the Turkish government to regain almost complete control within 24 hours.

"I predicted this would fail from early on, because all of Turkey's opposition parties came out against the coup from the beginning," Aykan Erdemir, a former member of Turkish parliament and senior fellow at the Washington, DC-based think tank Foundation for Defense of Democracies, told Business Insider on Saturday.

Turkey has seen several military coups over the last 50 years, but this latest attempt is different

The Turkish military apparently staged a coup on Friday night, deploying military into the streets of Istanbul and Ankara, Turkey's largest city and capital, respectively.

"Turkish Armed Forces have completely taken over the administration of the country to reinstate constitutional order, human rights and freedoms, the rule of law, and the general security that was damaged," a statement, published by a group calling itself the "Peace at Home Council" on TRT, Turkey's state-run broadcaster, read.

But Turkish citizens began flooding the streets in support of President Tayyip Recep Erdogan after he called for citizens to gather and repel the coup.

The military in Turkey has forced out four civilian governments since 1960.

At least 90 people were killed during overnight clashes in capital Ankara following an attempted coup in Turkey. Prime Minister Binali Yildirim said a new acting army chief of staff has been appointed after an attempted coup to topple the democratically elected government.

Turkish President Erdorgan has urged supporters to remain in public squares until situation returns to normal and has informed them that his govt. is still in charge.

He added that there is still a small disturbance in Ankara, hopefully it will be overcome soon, says Erdogan.

Stephen King shades the heck out of Donald Trump: "an idiot who can't find his own ass with both hands and a flashlight"

Bestselling international author, Stephen King has described U.S Presidential Republican Presidential candidate Donald Trump as "an idiot who can't find his own ass with both hands and a flashlight" He stated this in a tweet posted yesterday.

It wasn't the first time the author has made his dislike for the business mogul known. In an interview with Rolling Stone last month, he said: 

"I think that he's sort of the last stand of the sort of American male who feels like women have gotten out of their place and they're letting in all these people that have the wrong skin colours. Trump is extremely popular because people would like to have a world where you just didn't question that the white American was at the top of the pecking order"

On Democratic candidate, Hillary Clinton, King said:

"Of all the candidates who ran this year, the only one remotely qualified to do the job is Hillary Clinton. There's a lot of prejudice against her, just because she's a woman. Having been raised by a woman and lived in a family where my wife has, like, six sisters, I hate that."
