PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti — Eight years ago, a 7.0-magnitude earthquake upended life in Haiti, killing more than 300,000 people by some estimates and destroying hundreds of thousands of homes. For many of those left homeless, life hasn’t yet returned to normal. In the Delmas district north of the capital, Port-au-Prince, Camp Caradeux sprang up as a temporary home for 20,000 displaced people. Promises of permanent homes have failed to materialize and Haiti’s economy remains weak, leaving camp residents with nowhere to go. Читать дальше...

London (AFP) – Harry Kane produced yet another landmark display as his two goals in a 4-0 win over Everton at Wembley on Saturday saw him become Tottenham Hotspur’s all-time leading scorer in the Premier League. Saturday’s late kick-off saw England forward Kane score his 98th Premier League goal and surpass Teddy Sheringham’s previous club record of 97. Son Heung-Min broke the deadlock midway through the first half and Kane made it 2-0 in the 47th minute after an excellent run and cross from Son, despite a suspicion of offside. Читать дальше...
Take a statistical look at Landon Donovan's career as he announces he'll come out of retirement to join Liga MX side Leon. The first time Landon Donovan came out of retirement, the response was, "What took you so long?" Now that Donovan is doing it again, the question is just "why?" Donovan announced late Friday night that he would be signing for Liga MX side Leon at the not-so-tender age of 35, on one level the reason is obvious. For just about every soccer player who ever laced up boots, the... Читать дальше...

Easily the second best side to visit St. Andrews this season.
They didn't play the prettiest football but as a complete team they were excellent.
- Organised
- Crisp and precise on the ball
- Niggly, dirty and downright vile off it
- Tactically they all knew what they had to do at all times.
- Took their chances well.
We were the better side until they scored and then they took advantage of our frailties to be comfortable for the rest of the tie... Читать дальше...
Rays new infielder documents his trip to Peru
Just after Thanksgiving, the Rays claimed Micah Johnson off waivers.
