Mario Balotelli gets Genghis Khan quote tattooed on his chest to celebrate his first goal of the season



So it's no surprise that the 22-year-old footballer's latest ostentatious show of arrogance came in the form of his new tattoo, on his chest.
The Manchester City striker and self-confessed lothario Mario Balotelli went all out with his latest inking, perhaps to mark his first Barclays Premier League goal of the season on Wednesday.


Instead of celebrating with a night out, the sportsman decided that the best way to show how proud of himself he was, was to ink a Genghis Khan quote on his torso.
‘I am the punishment of God,’ reads the artwork. ‘If you had not committed great sins, God would not have sent a punishment like me upon you.’

Obama breaks down in tears while thanking campaign staff day after winning re-election


President Barack Obama got so emotional while thanking his campaign staffers in their Chicago headquarters that he began crying.
The normally stoic Democrat had to repeatedly wipe away tears during the five-and-a-half minute talk that was caught on video and posted to YouTube.

'I'm really proud of all of you,' he said
'I try to picture myself when i was your age, and I first moved to Chicago at the age of 25, and I had this vague inkling about making a difference I didn't really know how to do it I didn’t have a structure,' he said. 

'When I come here and I look at all of you what comes to mind is not that you guys actually remind me of myself its the fact that you are so much better than I was in so many ways- you're smarter, you're better organized, you're more effective.
'I'm absolutely confident that all of you are going to do just amazing things in your lives. You’re just going to do great things.

'Your journey is just beginning, you're just starting and whatever good we do over the next four years will pale in comparison to what you guys end up accomplishing for years and years to come. That's been my source of hope.'
While the President is known for his soaring oratory skills, which were out in full force on Election Night when he gave his acceptance speech to a crowded convention hall, this talk to his close aides and many recent college graduates was much more personal.
