Another day, another Bulls injury: Taj Gibson out with sprained ankle


Taj Gibson will be spending some time with Pau Gasol and Derrick Rose in the training room after that one.
In the third quarter of the Bulls loss to the Trail Blazers Friday night Gibson went down with what looked to be a nasty ankle sprain. The man was in some pretty serious pain. The good news is after the game he said the X-rays were negative, but he was in a walking boot after the game and told CSNChicago.com he’s going to miss a little time because this is his third ankle sprain since the playoffs last season.
“I gotta get this thing right,” he said…
“Just talking to Derrick, talking to the guys, I have to be patient,” Gibson said. “I have to stop trying to run back out there to try to play through these things. We have a long season. It’s just the dog in me that wants to be out there and play. I have to just learn from this.”

Robbers steal ‘Ebola blood samples’ in Guinea

Robbers in Guinea have stolen blood samples believed to be infected with Ebola, the Red Cross in the West African nation has said.

The samples, stored in tightly wrapped vials tucked into a cooler bag, were in the care of a Red Cross courier who was among nine passengers sharing a taxi when three men on a motorbike robbed the vehicle and took the samples, said Saa Mamady Leno of the Red Cross in Gueckedou.

Witnesses said at least one of the men was impaled on the iron railings below, which were photographed along with the collapsed balcony by a Scotland Yard forensics team today. One of the workmen died in the street and another in a Paddington hospital, while their six colleagues others were treated for minor injuries at the scene. Witnesses were also treated for shock.
