Emiliano Sala: Nantes fans lay flowers in tribute to Cardiff City footballer, whose plane went missing - talkSPORT

The striker was travelling to Cardiff to begin his Premier League career, having completed a £15m transfer Nantes supporters gathered to pay their respects to Emiliano Sala after learning the footballer was on a plane that went missing over the Channel Islands. The striker was travelling from France to Cardiff to begin his career in the Premier League, having joined the club in a £15million transfer. On Monday night, though, the light aircraft he was travelling in went off radar near Alderney. Nantes supporters gathered to lay flowers for Emiliano Sala Thousands turned up on Tuesday to lay flowers, as many feared the worst. It has now emerged that Sala sent voice messages to friends expressing fears his plane was going to "fall apart" shortly before the aircraft disappeared from radar. Sala scored 42 Ligue 1 goals for Nantes Five aircraft and two lifeboats scoured more than 1,000 square miles on Tuesday but found no traces of the plane. Guernsey Police said the chances of passenger survival were "slim", as rescuers resumed their search early on ...

Paris Turns to Flower-Growing Toilet to Fight Public Urination

Le Figaro, the French newspaper, because it produces compost that can be used for fertilizer. Designed by Faltazi, a Nantes-based industrial design firm, its top section also doubles as an attractive flower or plant holder. The Uritrottoir, which has graffiti-proof paint and does not use water, works by storing urine on a bed of dry straw, sawdust or wood chips. Monitored remotely by a “urine attendant” who can see on a computer when the toilet is full, the urine and straw is carted away to the outskirts of Paris, where it is turned into compost that can later be used in public gardens or parks. Fabien Esculier, an engineer who is known in the French media as “Monsieur Pipi” because of his expertise on the subject, said the Uritrottoir was more eco-friendly than the dozens of existing public toilets which dot the capital and are connected to the public sewage system. “Its greatest virtue is that it doesn’t use water, and produces compost that can be used for public gardens and parks,” he said. So far, Paris’s Gare de Lyon, a railway station that has become ground zero in the capital’s war against public urination, has ordered two of the toilets, which were installed on Tuesday outside the station, and the SNCF, France’s state-owned national railway, says it plans to roll out more across the capital if the Uritrottoir is a success. “I am optimistic it will work,” said Maxime Bourette, the SNCF maintenance official who ordered the toilets for the railway. “Everyone is tired of the mess.” He said it remained to be seen whether the toilets were cost effective — he said the SNCF paid about $9,730 for two, while it would cost about $865 a month to pay a sanitation worker to clean the toilets and take away the waste. A designer of the Uritrottoir, Laurent Lebot, 45, an industrial engineer who has also invented an eco-friendly vacuum cleaner, said Nantes, in western France, had ordered three for the spring. He had also had inquiries from local councils in Cannes, France; Lausanne, Switzerland; London; and Saarbrücken, Germany. A large model can handle the outflow of 600 people; a smaller model absorbs 300 trips to the toilet. “Public urination is a huge problem in France,” Mr. Lebot said. “Beyond the terrible smell, urine degrades lamp posts and telephone poles, damages cars, pollutes the Seine and undermines everyday life of a city. Cleaning up wastes water, ...

Floral tributes to massacre victims at Bataclan concert hall ahead of Sting show

It was the most awful night of my life," Ms Hugon told the Press Association. "I want peace in the world," she said. Leslie Podevin, 31, from Nantes, is in Paris for the weekend with her friend and friend's mother who walked away in tears. The trio laid flowers and Ms Podevin said: "We came here because we think it's important. "We want to remember this day. When we saw the date we thought we have to come here and do something." Islamic extremist suicide bombers - Frenchmen Omar Ismail Mostefai, 29, Samy Amimour, 28, and Foued Mohamed-Aggad, 23 - stormed into the concert hall as US rock band Eagles Of Death Metal performed, while attackers also targeted cafes and the Stade de France. In total 130 people died, including Briton Nick Alexander. Mr Alexander had been on tour with the American band selling merchandise, and tried to play dead when he was approached by one of the gunmen who opened fire. Sting said: "In re-opening the Bataclan, we have two important tasks to reconcile. First, to remember and honour those who lost their lives in the attack a year ago, and second, to celebrate the life and the music that this historic theatre represents. "In doing so we hope to respect the memory as well as the life-affirming spirit of those who fell. We shall not forget them." All revenue from the show will be donated to Life For Paris and 13 Novembre: Fraternite Verite. The Bataclan will play host to two gigs by Libertines frontman Pete Doherty, on November 16 and 17, while Senegalese singer Youssou N'Dour will play on November 18 and 19. A woman called Martine, who said she knew someone who escaped from Le Petit Cambodge, laid a single rose opposite the Bataclan. On the night of the massacre, gunmen with Kalashnikovs opened fire at Le Carillon bar and Le Petit Cambodge restaurant in Rue Alibert in the city's ... (Andover Advertiser)

January planting guide

Place seeds one-half inch into the soil. Space plants one to three inches apart. Recommended varieties include Imperator, Nantes, Danvers, and Chantenay. Carrots are often served fresh, in salads, with ranch dressing, or as a snack. Keep soil consistently moist, so that you will have juicy carrots come harvest time. Cauliflower takes 75-90 days until harvest. Plant seeds one-half inch to one inch into the soil. Space plants 12-24 inches apart. Recommended varieties include Snowball Strains, Snow Crown, and Brocoverde. While the plant is frost-resistant, the head is not. Tie the leaves around the head to protect it. Celery takes a long 150 days to mature. That’s five months. Plant seeds one-quarter to one-half inch into the soil. Space plants six to ten inches apart. Save this one for the expert gardener: it requires a lot of moisture during germination. Chinese cabbage includes varieties like bok-choy. It takes 100 days until harvest. Plant seeds one-quarter to three-quarters inch into the soil. Space plants 12-24 inches apart. These are easy to grow. Kale takes 75 days to mature. Plant seeds one half to one inch into the soil. Space plants 12-18 inches apart. Recommended varieties include Vates Dwarf Blue Curled, Tuscan (lacinato), Winterbor, and Redbor. Kale is a nutrient, vitamin, and mineral rich food. When harvesting, rob leaves from the outside, never more than one-third of the plant at a time. The kale will continue producing leaves. Kohlrabi take 70-80 days to mature. They are a high-yield crop. Plant seeds one-half to one inch into the soil. Space plants three to five inches apart. Recommended varieties include: Early White Vienna and Purple Vienna. The root and leaves are edible and red and white varieties are available. They are rather like radishes or turnips and can be prepared similarly. These are an excellent candidate for raised bed gardening. English peas take 50-70 days until harvest. Plant one to two inches into the soil. Space plants two to three inches apart. English peas need only half the fertilizer of other plants— too much will inhibit yield (this is why we plan). They also love the cold, so a warm winter is not a good planting time for English peas. Potatoes take 150 days to harvest. Like celery, this is a long wait. However, potatoes are a bit less needy, so an expert gardener is not necessary. Plant three to four inches into the soil. Space plants eight to 12 inches apart. Plant certified seed pieces with at least one eye. These love fertilizer, water, ad a little bit of cold weather. These are good candidates for raised bed gardening: build the bed higher and higher as the plant grows to encourage more yield. (ECB Publishing)
