    Necho e la Luna, nuova cascata di ghiaccio in Valle del Lys di Umberto Bado e Amedeo Giobbio

    Il report di Umberto Bado che insieme a Amedeo Giobbio in Vallone di Necho, Valle del Lys (Valle di Gressoney), ha aperto Necho e la Luna (III/4+/M6). La nuova cascata di ghiaccio parte in comune con la Cascata dell’Uomo Storto per poi deviare verso sinistra. Il Vallone di Necho è una piccola valle secondaria della Valle del Lys. Una di quelle valli che pochi conoscono e ancor meno hanno mai notato. Infatti, per parlare di questa valle si fa prima a dire “Ma si dai, sopra gli impianti di Punta Jolanda!” Sguardo sperso dell’interlocutore,“Insomma, davanti alla Cascata di Punta Jolanda!” A questo punto un timido cenno di comprensione si ottiene…

    Martedì 19 febbraio i francesi Léo Billon, Sébastien Ratel e Benjamin Védrines hanno effettuato una salita invernale in giornata della Via Cassin. Poche ore dopo, la svizzera Caro North e l’argentino Carlos Molina hanno completato anche loro la medesima via in inverno ed in giornata. Approfittando dell’eccezionale periodo di alta pressione su quasi tutto l’arco alpino, martedì sulle Grandes Jorasses si sono verificate due salite degne di nota, entrambe sulla stessa via, ovvero sulla Via Cassin sullo Sperone Walker che per la prima volta è stata salita in inverno in giornata. I primi a riuscirci sono stati gli alpinisti francesi Léo Billon, Sébastien Ratel e Benjamin Védrines appartenenti al gruppo…

    Golden Tate's appeal denied; Giants wide receiver will serve 4-game suspension | Sporting News

    Golden Tate will have to serve his four-game suspension for a positive test of performance-enhancing drugs. The Giants wide receiver appealed but an arbiter ruled against him Tuesday and Tate’s appeal was denied. He is entering his first season with New York, which will now be without its key acquisition as it works through its offense. “This morning, I received the unfortunate news that my appeal was denied,” Tate said in a statement Tuesday. “I went into this arbitration with the understanding that due to the facts, unlike many other cases, we could be the exception to win. Unfortunately the NFL stood by their no tolerance policy, which I hope…

    Andrew Luck injury update: Colts QB to sit out preseason with high ankle problem, report says | Sporting News

    Andrew Luck’s persistent calf injury may not be a calf injury after all. Speaking to SiriusXM NFL Radio early Tuesday, Colts owner Jim Irsay said his quarterback is dealing with a “small little bone” injury in his lower left leg that’s forced him to spend most of training camp on the sidelines. “I feel very confident he’s going to find a way through this thing. I think after the (Kevin) Durant thing, everyone is erring on the side of caution, but quite frankly, this is not even in the Achilles tendon,” Irsay said. “It’s a bone. I’m not good at these things, but it’s a small little bone.” By Tuesday…

    Kyle Seager's recent uptick gets some help from Tigers' outfield collision | Sporting News

    Before returning from injury in the middle of this season, Kyle Seager had been trending in the wrong direction since signing a seven-year, $100 million contract with the Mariners. Last year was the worst of his career. The third baseman batted .221 and posted a career-low .273 on-base percentage. On Tuesday, though, Seager’s resurgent 2019 continued with a three-home run game against the Tigers. His third blast got some help from opposing outfielders Niko Goodrum and Brandon Dixon, whose collision sent the ball flying over the fence.

    Real Madrid news: Luka Jovic linked with loan away just two months after joining having failed to impress Zinedine Zidane

    Luka Jovic could depart Real Madrid on loan in a shock move despite only being at the club for just two months. Jovic was the first signing made by manager Zinedine Zidane in his second spell as Real boss, costing £62million, following a excellent campaign with Eintracht Frankfurt, where he scored 27 goals in all competitions. However, according to Spanish publication Marca, Zidane is said to be unconvinced by what he has seen in training and pre-season from the 21-year-old, who failed to score this summer. His progress has also been hampered by a knock he sustained in the humiliating 7-3 loss to Atletico Madrid last month. Zidane has deployed…
