0Shares0000Jose Antonio Reyes has died in a car crash © AFP/File / Cristina QuiclerMADRID, Spain, Jun 1 – A minute’s silence will be held for Jose Antonio Reyes before the Champions League final after the former Arsenal, Real Madrid and Spain forward was killed in a car crash on Saturday. Reyes was 35.Reyes shot to fame at Sevilla and secured a switch to Arsenal, where he was part of the unbeaten ‘Invincibles’ 2003-2004 Premier League winners, before spells at Real and Atletico Madrid. UEFA announced they would hold a minute’s silence in his honour ahead of the final in Madrid between Tottenham and Liverpool.The Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) also confirmed there would be a minute’s silence held before all official Spanish league games this weekend.But the RFEF said the seven Segunda Division games would be postponed, including Cadiz against Extremadura, the club Reyes had joined in January.Former Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger signed Reyes on the back of Spain’s Under-19’s European championships win where he played alongside Fernando Torres and Andres Iniesta, and a dazzling series of matches with Sevilla the following season.“I am devastated to hear the terrible news about Jose,” Wenger said. “To his family and friends, all support from everyone in the Arsenal family. He will remain forever in our hearts.”Arsenal’s record goalscorer Thierry Henry, who played with Reyes, wrote on Twitter: “I’m devastated to hear the sad news about Jose Antonio Reyes. Wonderful player, superb team mate and exceptional human being.”Reyes won Premier League and FA Cup medals at Arsenal and came on as a late substitute when the Gunners lost the 2006 Champions League final to Barcelona.Arsenal described the accident as “awful news”.“Reyes was, of course, a member of the Invincibles,” Arsenal said on their website.“(He) made a significant contribution to that unbeaten season.”“Thanks for what you gave us, and rest in peace,” Arsenal said.But it was at Sevilla where the pain will be most keenly felt.“We couldn’t be confirming worse news,” Sevilla said when breaking the news.“Beloved Sevilla star Jose Antonio Reyes has died in a traffic collision. Rest in peace,” Sevilla, where he spent two four-year spells, said on Twitter.He helped Sevilla win the Spanish second division in his first stint at the club. He won the Europa League five times, twice with Atletico Madrid and three times in his second spell at Sevilla.The emergency services in Andalusia and the authorities in the town where his family live, Utrera, said Reyes died in an accident on the main road from Sevilla to Utrera. They said another member of his family also died and a third person was injured.Spain captain Sergio Ramos, who is also from the province of Seville, came through the youth team just after Reyes and later played with him at Real Madrid also tweeted his grief.“Broken. Shattered,” wrote Ramos. “I have no words. All the affection for the family. We will always remember you, my friend! RIP brother.”Reyes played 21 times for Spain between 2003 and 2006, scoring four goals. He also won domestic league titles with Real Madrid and Benfica.After leaving Sevilla in 2016, Reyes played for Espanyol, Cordoba and Xinjiang Tianshan in China, before arriving at Extremadura this year as a free agent.“With broken hearts we announce the news of our player Jose Antonio Reyes’ death in a car crash and we ask for you to pray for his soul,” Extremadura said.Monchi, who overlapped with Reyes as a player at Sevilla and is now the club’s director of football, also tweeted his sadness and referred to wingback Antonio Puerta, who died of a cardiac arrest playing for Sevilla in 2007.“Impossible news to believe, impossible to digest, how sad my God,” wrote Monchi. “What a left flank you are going to make, Antonio and you, up there.”0Shares0000(Visited 1 times, 1 visits today)
Daniel and MajellaSINGER Daniel O’Donnell and his just-as-famous wife Majella have been inundated with offers of free accommodation – thanks to a new TV series.UTV Ireland have commissioned the couple to do a road trip series for the new station, taking in some of the country’s best B&Bs.The station says filming will begin next month – but since they announced the new show, they’ve had to field hundreds of calls offering the Donegal couple free accommodation. The six-part series called Daniel and Majella’s B&B Road Trip is being billed as a reality travel programme with a difference.The popular couple will live a somewhat nomadic existence, take to the open road and visit sites of natural beauty, all while staying in B&B accommodation, says UTV Ireland.Their B&B hosts will act as tour guides, showing them around the area as well as sharing stories across dinner and breakfast tables.After news of the series broke, landladies wasted no time in contacting UTV Ireland to offer their services to the Donegal singing sensation. A spokesperson for UTV Ireland said: “Both ourselves and the production company have received a large amount of queries and expressions of interest from B&Bs across the country since we announced the series.”Daniel said the show will serve to showcase places close to his heart and deliver, in a quirky way, an image of real Irish people for would-be visitors.“We had an idea to put together a show that visits Ireland as opposed to encouraging people to travel outside the country. We wanted to show the areas the we love,” he said.“In my early days I stayed in B&Bs an awful lot, when we toured dances around Ireland. It just seems like a great way to show off the country because you are meeting the local people as well.“If you stay in hotels you don’t necessarily meet the real Irish people.“I think, or I hope, it will give viewers the opportunity to see a different Ireland – where you can come and be very much part of the family,” he said.

The court heard that on one occasion, the father of one was found hiding in a wardrobe after burgling two houses.Two weeks ago, while on bail, Lafferty knocked a woman to the ground in Letterkenny, and snatched her handbag.He was found later by a description given by a member of the public and by CCTV footage.Solicitor Patsy Gallagher said Lafferty of Fairgreen, Letterkenny, had found himself in a quagmire of drugs.He added that he was living in fear of drug dealers and only robbed because he owed money for the drugs including cocaine, cannabis and crystal meth.The court heard that many of the crimes were committed while Lafferty was out on bail.Judge Paul Kelly said he accepted that Lafferty was an easy target but that he had to protect the public.“I have a commitment to protect the innocent victims who have suffered as a result of these crimes,” said Judge Kelly.He sentenced Lafferty to 10 months detention at St Pats Institution for Young Offenders for six burglary charges and fined him a total of €1,600.EndsMAN WENT ON CRIME SPREE TO PAY DRUG DEALERS was last modified: March 12th, 2012 by StephenShare this:Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)Click to share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)Click to share on Reddit (Opens in new window)Click to share on Pocket (Opens in new window)Click to share on Telegram (Opens in new window)Click to share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window)Click to share on Skype (Opens in new window)Click to print (Opens in new window) Tags:drugsLetterkenny District CourtMatthew Lafferty

Proposition 74 would increase the probationary period for beginning teachers from two years to five. Only Indiana and Missouri have such lengthy probationary periods for teachers. In most states, teachers work three years before gaining permanent status. If approved by voters, the initiative also would: Require annual performance reviews during the five-year probation period. School districts could choose not to rehire a teacher without offering a specific reason during this period. Allow a school board to fire a teacher who received two consecutive unsatisfactory performance evaluations. The teacher would have 30 days to request a hearing before an administrative law judge.

Roses are the favourite flower of gardeners. End of. No arguing. Whenever you see polls conducted to get gardeners to name their favourite flower… roses top it.I have a rose garden, many of you will have roses in your front or back garden, some will be bush roses some will be climbers, but the general maintenance is little changed between them all at this time of year.Dead-heading is so important when it comes to keeping roses in tip top shape. Touring past your roses once a week, with the scissors and snipping away at flowers which are falling past their best is an essential task if you want to encourage the plant to develop more flowers. Advertisement This is the ideal time to be removing this flowerFlower falling past their best will not only make the plant look less attractive but fallen petals, trapped on the leaves, will encourage fungal infection to the plant.Another common ‘fault’ of the roses is their affliction to suffering from what appears to be every pest and disease going. But this can be easily avoided by keeping the plant in tip top condition by feeding and the aforementioned dead heading.Plants growing well do not succumb to as many pests and diseases and do not suffer as badly – conditions such as Black Spot can be reduced and prevented by proper pruning and correct feeding of roses.Many months ago I wrote here about the importance of keeping your roses disease free, as the foliage is the starting ground for the perfume that the flowers produce – so a rose free of disease will carry a better perfume than one inflicted. Advertisement For disease control at this time of year you’re best to use a weekly application of a copper fungicide or a fortnightly application of a systemic product, such as RoseClear.The wellbeing of the plant will be enhanced with a fortnightly kick of Miracle-Gro or such like plant food. Moving forward this Winter your roses will be dramatically improved with an application of ½ bag of Farmyard Manure from the garden centre applied around the base as a mulch.Now is not the time to be planting roses in your garden, however now is a great time to be admiring other peoples roses to get a shopping-list developed in your mind for varieties that would enhance your own garden – so try to make use of the many fantastic gardens in the Donegal Garden Trail, and if you’re rose focused you absolutely must visit Nora’s Rose Garden in Ballybofey.DD Gardening: Midsummer rose care was last modified: August 2nd, 2017 by Gareth AustinShare this:Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)Click to share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)Click to share on Reddit (Opens in new window)Click to share on Pocket (Opens in new window)Click to share on Telegram (Opens in new window)Click to share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window)Click to share on Skype (Opens in new window)Click to print (Opens in new window) Tags:GardeningGareth Austinroses
When Humboldt B52s’ manager Scott. St. John was asked what he thought of starting pitcher Tommy Gale’s complete-game, 143-pitch win he said, grinning, “I thought it was the 1970’s again, it’s rare for a guy to do that today.”In the 70’s or in 2019, a performance like the one Gale put forth is a hard one for an opposing team to overcome, and such was the case Saturday evening as the B52s edged out the visiting Redding Ringtails 3-2 at Bomber Field.Gale finished with 12 strikeouts while giving …

Users track their protein, fat, carb and sodium consumption via the HealthyWage social networking site and gain an interesting incentive to improve their health – money. A corporation sponsors users to meet health-related goals in the hopes of either improving the health of its employees or simply forging a relationship with health-conscious consumers. The company’s first challenge is a body mass index (BMI) challenge. Users with a BMI of 30 or higher are asked to cut down to a BMI of 24.9 by October 2010. HealthyWage users are given a chance to commit $200 of their own money towards their goals in order to receive up to $1000 upon completion of the BMI challenge. Those who choose not to commit their money, receive $250 for a successful reduction of their BMI. Judging by the rising trend in personal health-related applications, developers are quick to build apps for exercise and diet. Below are 4 different approaches to health-related apps: DailyBurn:This service allows users to track their weight, goal weight and the calories they’ve eaten based on a number of different foods in the DailyBurn database. One of the great features of the DailyBurn iPhone App is that it includes nutritional facts for major restaurant chains, food manufacturers and the entire USDA database. Map My Fitness: This service offers users the chance to map their running, walking, hiking, triatholon and cycling training routes and share them with friends. The company just announced a partnership with the New York Road Runners for the ING New York City Marathon. Runners who register at this site can run a distance equal to the New York Marathon, upload their results via the iMapMyRun iPhone App and compare results to active participants. FitBit: Launched at TC50, users wear a small device fashioned with an accelerometer and motion sensor. The tracker measures calories burned, steps taken, distance travelled and quality of sleep. From here the device uploads all of this information to the web. Users can also manually input information about their diets and about activities like biking and swimming. Lose It! iPhone App: This application allows users to set a daily calorie budget and stick to it. The service tracks each day’s calorie intake and subtracts calorie points whenever you exercise. The fact that the service lists how many calories you can still afford to eat at all times means you are constantly working off the foods that you simply can’t live without.
