Doctors in Mexico are preparing to take matador Jose Tomas off sedation gradually and he is “totally out of danger,” manager Salvador Boix said. Tomas was gored in the groin Saturday during a bullfight in the Mexican city of Aguascalientes. The bull’s horn severed a vein and an artery and Tomas received a blood transfusion of up to 17 pints (eight liters), Boix said. Mexican television footage showed Tomas working the animal with his cape when the bull makes a quick turn toward the matador and catches him in the groin, lifting him into the air for a few seconds and shaking its head with Tomas dangling from its sharp left horn. The bullfighter’s father, Jose Tomas Roman, 사다리 토토 사이트 said from Mexico that normally he watches his son fight from high up in the stands but this time happened to be at ringside. When Tomas was gored, he said, “the whole ring knew that it was a horrible injury.” “I will never do that again,” he told the radio station, referring to his ringside spot. “I feared for the worst.” Tomas is known for a daring bullfighting style in which he gets particularly close to the bull. His full name is Jose Tomas Roman Martin, but he goes by just Jose Tomas. In Spain, he has been something of an enigma: in 2002, at the peak of...

But even the staid CMA is good for the occasional twist or two, and this year’s best bet might be Vince Gill, who’s nominated for album of the year for his ambitious four-disc set, “These Days.” The awards are scheduled for Wednesday night in Nashville; ABC is to broadcast them live. Gill wrote or co-wrote all the albums’ 43 tracks, co-produced them, sang, played guitars and assembled a dream team of guests including Sheryl Crow, Bonnie Raitt, Diana Krall, Alison Krauss and Emmylou Harris. Even though it’s been a while since Gill has been a country hitmaker, he’s well-respected in the industry and could surprise. A single from the album, “The Reason Why,” a duet with Krauss, is also nominated for musical event of the year. “That’s not the type of music that you can mass-produce. It’s very thoughtful and appealing on a number of levels and deserves to be awarded for that,” Wade Jessen, director of country charts for Billboard magazine, said of the album. Other categories to watch are female vocalist where reigning country queen Carrie Underwood and upstart Miranda Lambert are up against stalwarts Reba McEntire, Martina McBride and Alison Krauss; and vocal duo, where perennial favorites Brooks & Dunn have stiff competition from Big & Rich, Montgomery Gentry, Sugarland and the Wreckers. Krauss, a contemporary bluegrass star, has four nominations in all even though she’s...

The 1986 reactor explosion sent a cloud of radiation over much of Europe and severe health problems persist a quarter-century later. Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych says some 2 million people suffer illnesses caused by the radiation. The exploded reactor is encased in a deteriorating shell and internationally funded work to replace the shell is far behind schedule.

Yanukovych laid flowers at a monument to explosion victims in Chernobyl, 실시간 축구 visited a plant on reprocessing a spent nuclear fuel. Yanukovych pledged to give better care for Chernobyl victims and those who still suffer from the related diseases, calling that an issue of “conscience and honor.” Prime Minister Mykola Azarov promised better medical treatment, higher pensions, accommodation. In Kiev, an Orthodox priest prayed near a monument to Chernobyl victims in front of hundreds who gathered to pay tribute to those who died. Some of them complained about inadequate compensation and treatment for those who fell ill after taking part in the cleanup. “We lost our town, we lost everything.
