Daniel Ortega recomienda a Rafael Correa no reanudar relaciones con Colombi

Rafael Mendez
2008-06-18 13:36:00 Rafael Méndez was born on March 26, 1906 in Jiquilpan, Mexico. His musical training began when he was five, when his father needed a trumpet player for the orchestra comprised of family members. The Méndez orchestra was a popular performing group and appeared regularly at festivals and community gatherings. Rafael loved the trumpet and actually practiced more that his father allowed.In 1916, the Méndez orchestra performed for guerrilla leader Pancho Villa. He was so taken with the family orchestra, that he ?drafted? the family into his army. Rafael quickly became Villa?s favorite player, and after several months demanded that Méndez stay with the rebels, even after the rest of his family were allowed to return home. Months later, Méndez was released from the rebel army, and he began to perform in several travelling circus bands, in addition to the family orchestra. He joined the Mexican army in 1921, where he played in the army orchestra.Read more...

Please, Rafael Nadal is no 'ogre' or 'beast'
2008-05-19 16:07:00 It seems that Rafael Nadal's success on clay has created humongous jealousy particularly among Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic supporters.It is truly unacceptable when the self-proclaimed 'Britain's No. 1 quality newspaper website', Telegraph.co.uk called the King of Clay an 'ogre'. Since when the world no. 2 is known as an 'ogre' in France?And what exactly is an ogre?1. A giant or monster in legends and fairy tales that eats humans.2. A person who is felt to be particularly cruel, brutish, or hideous.I don't see the definition match Rafael Nadal at all.Please accept the fact that Nadal is the best on clay. He has denied Novak Djokovic the no. 2 spot on Saturday and he also took away the Hamburg Masters from Roger Federer. But Nadal is no 'ogre' or 'beast' as some of the media would love to call him. Give Nadal some respect.

Free Agent Stock Watch: Rafael Furcal
2008-05-02 12:33:00 Indicators predicting a big year for Rafael Furcal included his impending free agency, a return to health, and a strong Spring Training performance. After 28 games, he sits at .371/.459/.586 (tops among shortstops). When Furcal first reached free agency after the 2005 season, he was only 28 and was coming off a .284/.348/.429 season. He chose to maximize his yearly salary rather than take a four or five-year deal. The three-year, $39MM contract Furcal signed with the Dodgers allows him to re-enter free agency at age 31. Furcal is in line for a monster contract even if he can't maintain his MVP performance. Jimmy Rollins is signed at a well below-market price, so he's a poor comparable. The high-end comp is Derek Jeter, who gave up nine free agent years for a bit less than $20MM per season. Furcal's agent, Paul Kinzer, could reasonably ask for $75MM over five years. Furcal and the Dodgers are open to a midseason extension, according to Ken Rosen...

El match contemporáneo mas importante del tenis mundial esta vez (otra vez) sobre polvo de ladrillo. Y ahà sabemos que se invierten la regla de estos últimos cuatro años: Nadal es el Nº 1 en esta superficie.Y se dio un partido apretado en el score (7-5, 7-5) que no refleja el sufrimiento de Federer en la cancha. Nadal fue amplio dominador psicológico durante el 90% del partido, pero ese 10% restante lo dignifica aún más. PerdÃa 0-4 el segundo set y ganó (con una mentalidad positiva casi irreal para cualquier mortal) 5 games seguidos… frente a Federer!Creo que solo él logra esto frente a una máquina de jugar que solo falla frente a este mallorquÃn. Sus errores no forzados demuestran su endeble respuesta anÃmica frente a Rafa y su tenis impredecible.O no tanto. Lo suyo es siempre jugar el 80% al revés de Rogelio, todas las ...
Rafael Nadal the King of Clay in Monte Carlo, again
2008-04-28 03:34:00 "Maybe I didn't play my best for sure. But it's tough against him and he deserves to win in the end... because he's a hell of a clay court player" - Roger FedererRafael is definitely the best clay court specialist in the Open Era. He has just made a historic win last night at Monte Carlo by winning 4 consecutive titles in a row. What more he won the doubles final on the same night together with Tommy Robredo!I was worrying in the second set when Federer lead by 4-0. Who knows Nadal will fight back and win the second set 7-5. That's exactly the same Rafael Nadal and his fighting spirit when I first saw him play at the Australian Open against Lleyton Hewitt in the quarterfinal.Now, Rafael Nadal, the undisputed claycourt king, will be out to maintain his dominance when he chases a record fourth consecutive title at the Barcelona Open, which starts today.(Photo by Claude Paris/Michael Steele/Getty Images)

Rafael Nadal shows he rules the clay court
2008-04-24 01:54:00 Nadal had a fierce start at the Monte Carlo Tennis Tournament. After all this is his favourite surface. With the result 6-0, 6-3 in just 76 minutes over Croatian Mario Ancic, I believe Nadal still got what it takes to win his first title of the year and his 4th (!) consecutive Monte Carlo titles.Believe it or not, Nadal has 94 out of 95 clay court matches since April 2005. He only lost to Roger Federer at the Hamburg final last year.By the way, Rafael Nadal has revamped his official website. I really love the favicon and the flash in the middle that features the main links to the rest of the site.(Image from Getty Images and rafaelnadal.com)

Closer Watch: Brian Wilson, Huston Street & Rafael Soriano
2008-04-12 01:44:00 Ten days into the season and there has already been some turnover at the closer position. Here is a quick look at a few developing situations along with a link to some important injury information from injury expert Will Carroll. San Francisco Giants: Brian Wilson closed yesterday's win after Brad Hennessey made it a save situation in the 9th. This helps erase the memory of Wilson's two previous appearances in which he allowed runs and blew a save. I don't think Wilson is in any danger of losing the job, but bad appearances by closers need to be noted regardless. Oakland A's: Keith Foulke closed yesterday's win for the Oakland A's. Closer Huston Street was unavailable because he pitched the previous two games. There appears to be nothing here except the fact Foulke was successful. Atlanta Braves; Rafael Soriano was placed on the DL on Wednesday. Manny Acosta was held back on Monday to be used as the closer, but Peter Moylan had been used the previ...

The water-covered court was constructed in the 110ft swimming pool set in the Gansevoort's exclusive 22,000sqft rooftop retreat overlooking Miami's South Beach.The court took seven days to build as a specialist underwater team constructed two invisible platforms at either end of the pool for the players to stand and play using a combination of bespoke acrylic sheets and supporting acrylic tubes that were bonded together.
