Podcasts about joao almeida

Last week we previewed the Tour de Suisse with an excited G - but this week we had to ask him about an innocuous crash that saw him have to head home from Switzerland early. Has it wrecked his Tour prep? Is he recovered? He answers both of those questions in this week's pod and looks back at the winner in Suisse, the impressive Joao Almeida. And next week? Well, you can expect a Tour de France preview from us - and then the greatest cycling show in the world starts just a few days later... We'll see you then.

Spencer Martin and Johan Bruyneel break down the 2025 edition of the Tour of Romandie, which saw João Almeida take an impressive overall victory over Bahrain-Victorious' Lenny Martinez and Almeida's UAE teammate Jay Vine. They discuss the key moments of the race and debate what Remco Evenepoel's up-and-down performance en route to 5th place overall means for his future as a genuine challenger to the sport's top GC superstars. And, before they take off, they dive into XDS-Astana's incredible recent points haul, what it means for their potential future as a WorldTour team, and how it could spell major trouble for a current incumbent.

Hoy fue la última oportunidad para que los ciclistas no escaladores pudieron esperar entrar en la escapa, y lo hicieron 36 de ellos.  Los equipos de los líderes de la general dejaron hacer y finalmente se escaparon 3 ciclistas del primer grupo, del cual el belga Víctor Campenaerts del equipo Lotto Dstny se mostró el más rápido en la meta.  No hay cambios en las clasificaciones generales.

THEMOVE team scratching our heads again when we saw Tadej Pogacar attack. Lance had some words for him on the political side of bike racing and things we wishes he had done differently.

Hoy fue la última posibilidad para los velocistas y sus equipos se aseguraron que ningun corredor se pudo escapar.  El pelotón entero se presentó en la ciudad de Nîmes para el sprint, pero lamentablemente jersey verde Biniam Girmay se vio implicado en una caída y no pudo defenderse hoy.  El equipo Alpecin dio una lección de cómo se lanza un sprint para su líder Philipsen, sobre todo con el campeón del mundo Mathieu Vanderpoel como último lanzador, y Philipsen ganó la etapa con bastante facilidad, llevándose su tercera victoria en este Tour.

Welcome to WEDŪ's stage preview and prediction-focused show, OŪTCOMES, which is hosted by THEMOVE regulars Johan Bruyneel, who has led teams to nine Tour de France titles as a director, and Spencer Martin, author of the Beyond the Peloton in-depth race breakdown newsletter. The duo uses their extensive knowledge of the sport to attempt to predict the outcome of each Tour de France stage while breaking down the course, top contenders, and potential betting opportunities. This episode previews the Tour's 16th stage, a relatively flat 188-kilometer transition from Gruissan to Nîmes in the south of France that will likely see a battle between the breakaway and the sprinters. Listen in to see how the duo thinks the action will play out, who will come out on top, and which riders present the best betting value.    

Etapa para los libros históricos, Pogaçar casi sentencia el Tour después de esta demostración de poderío en la subida de Plateau de Beille. Atacó a 5km del final y aventajó de más de 1 minuto a su gran rival Vingegaard en la línea de meta y solidificó su maillot amarillo, ahora teniendo más de 3 minutos de ventaja. Mañana el pelotón del Tour disfrutará de un bien merecido día de descanso.  

De 12 à 14h du lundi au samedi, et de 13h à 15h le dimanche, vivez le début de l'étape en direct. François Pinet, Simon Dutin, Ludovic Duchesne, Yohan Bredow, Frederic Brindelle et Romain Asselin reviennent également sur les faits marquants de l'étape de la veille et présentent les enjeux de l'étape du jour. Et pour les accompagner, un consultant de choix : Jérôme Pineau, membre de la Dream Team RMC.

Description: Welcome to WEDŪ's stage preview and prediction-focused show, OŪTCOMES. The show is hosted by THEMOVE regulars Johan Bruyneel and Spencer Martin, who use their extensive knowledge of the sport to attempt to predict the outcome of each Tour de France stage while breaking down the course, top contenders, and potential betting opportunities. This episode previews the Tour's 14th stage, a 152-kilometer test through the Pyrenees from Pau to a summit finish at Saint-Lary-Soulan Pla d'Adet that will serve as the first true major mountain test for the GC contenders. Listen in to see how the duo thinks the action will play out, who will come out on top, and which riders present the best betting value.    

Esta etapa en el masivo central de Francia fue súper dura y muy muy espectacular. El equipo UAE del líder Tadej Pogaçar controló toda la etapa y no permitió que la escapada cogió mucha ventaja. Cuando llegó el momento más duro de la carrera, Pogaçar atacó muy fuerte y se fue en solitario, hacia lo que parecía una nueva victoria de etapa. Su principal rival Jonás Vingegaard no se rindió y pudo recuperarse, incluso alcanzó a un Pogaçar que parecía sufrir de falta de combustible, y para gran sorpresa le ganó en un sprint a dos, llevándose la victoria de etapa. Pogaçar sigue líder pero Vingegaard mostró hoy que el también vino para ganar este Tour.

Today was the first of two individual Time Trials. The big four we identified in the preview show solidified that they are in fact the big four. Also, American rising star Matteo Jorgenson joins the show post race.

Tadej Pogacar se ha adjudicado la cuarta etapa del Tour con final en Valloire. El esloveno ha roto el grupo de favoritos en el último kilómetro de la subida al Galibier. Su gran rival, Jonas Vingegaard, no ha podido seguir su ritmo y ya está a 50 segundos en la General. Además, Juan Ayuso y Joao Almeida, compañeros de equipo del vencedor, han protagonizado un rifirrafe en plena ascensión al coloso alpino.

Las 2 últimas carreras antes del Tour de Francia, Dauphiné y Vuelta a Suiza se terminaron y han servido para analizar el estado de forma de varios ciclistas y equipos. El Critérium du Dauphiné fue ganado por Primož Roglič, pero no sin dificultades en la última etapa. En la Vuelta a Suiza vimos un dominio total del equipo UAE, con Adam Yates y Joao Almeida repartiéndose las 4 últimas etapas entre ellos.  Adam Yates se proclamó vencedor final de la prueba.

UAE Team Emirates à la fête ! Alignés sur le Tour de Suisse pour se tester avant le Tour de France, Adam Yates et Joao Almeida se sont amusés en écœurant la concurrence. Les deux coureurs ont réalisé le doublé lors des quatre dernières étapes pour terminer avec plus de 3 minutes d'avance au général sur le troisième, Mathias Skjelmose vainqueur de cette course l'année dernière. Le test est donc réussi pour ces deux hommes qui vont donc, dans moins de deux semaines maintenant, se mettre au service de leur leader Tadej Pogacar. Le Slovène qui a du, encore plus que d'habitude, être tout sourire en voyant la démonstration de ses deux lieutenants de luxe tout comme l'intégralité du staff de la formation Emirati. Pogacar ultra-favori du Tour de France ? Qui va bien pouvoir le battre ? La victoire peut-elle vraiment lui échapper ? L'armada UAE Team Emirates est-elle la plus forte jamais alignée ? Avec Yohan Bredow, Pierre-Yves Leroux, Pierre Koetschet et Jérôme Coppel.Production : Killian VeroveRéalisation : Julie Deroo

La carrera helvética se recordará para siempre por el triste accidente y fallecimiento del ciclista suiza Gino Mäder, quien desafortunadamente se estrelló en la bajada final de la quinta etapa y dejó la vida en el camino hacia La Punt.  El pelotón entero estaba en shock y las dos etapas siguientes se hicieron neutralizadas en homenaje a su compañero fallecido.  La carrera se decidió finalmente en la última etapa, una contra reloj de 25km, ganado por el joven español Juan Ayuso, por delante de Remco Evenpoel y el vencedor final, el danés Mattias Skjelmose.

El Giro d'Italia entra en su fase decisiva, y los líderes de la clasificación general nos están brindando un espectáculo de lo más lindo.  El británico Gerraint  Thomas se volvió a vestir de rosa y esta dando una impresión muy sólida. Joao Almeida ganó la etapa 16 atacando y descolgando a Primož Roglič, colocándose en el segundo puesto de la clasificación. Dos días después, en la etapa 18, cambiaron de nuevo las posiciones a favor de Roglič.  La etapa 17, llana y para los sprinters, fue ganada por el italiano Alberto Dainese.

Hij leek op. Oud. Versleten. Het was tijd voor nieuw bloed. Jonger bloed. Primoz Roglic? Das war einmahl. Na afgelopen dinsdag gaven weinig mensen nog een stuiver voor zijn kansen deze Giro. Nota bene Joao Almeida reed 13 met voor hem, in plaats van achter. Maar Roglic was blij dat 'ie er nog was. En inmiddels zijn wij ook weer blij. Want in ene reed 'ie weer op kop. Samen met z'n trouwste viervoeter Sepp Kuss en in hun kielzog de jarige Thomas. Voorop lag Pinot, in tranen, uiteraard. Want weer tweede. Uiteraard.De Rode Lantaarn wordt mede mogelijk gemaakt door De Nederlandse Loterij en fiets van de Show Ridley.Zie het privacybeleid op https://art19.com/privacy en de privacyverklaring van Californië op https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We hebben er even op moeten wachten, maar in etappe 16 was het raak: Joao Almeida gooide de klassementsknuppel in het hoenderhok! Slechts Geraint Thomas voegde zich later bij de Portugees en gezamenlijk smeerden zij de rest minimaal 30 seconden aan, alvorens Almeida zijn eerste ritzege in een Grote Ronde behaalde. Een dag later was het Alberto Dainese die zijn team DSM een eerste ritzege in de Giro van 2023 bezorgde. We maken ons op voor de allesbeslissende apotheose: een gevreesd drieluik in de bergen. Wie wint de Giro? Dit is Radio Scorito.

Klassementskampen i Giro d'Italia er for alvor åbnet og løbet år ind i sin afgørende fase med nogle vilde bjergetaper. Men der er stadig blot 29 sekunder mellem nummer 1, Geraint Thomas og nummer 3, Primoz Roglic. Mellem dem ligger Joao Almeida, som godt kunne ligne den mest formstærke af dem alle. Vi taler også om gode danske resultater, om et rygte, der sender Magnus Cort nordpå og så annoncerede verdens måske bedste sprinter nogensinde, Mark Cavendish, sit karrierestop.

Stage 16 was a mountain top finish that delivered as Jumbo Visma put the pressure on the race to thin out the favourites group. When Bruno Armirail dropped the pressure increased and it seemed to be Geraint Thomas and Joao Almeida who were the strongest whereas Primoz Roglic was dropped and left to scramble to the finish. He narrowly beat one of the stars of the day Eddie Dunbar.

Med Per Bausager som gæst samler Radio Tour - taler Giro i dette afsnit op på 16. etape, hvor Joao Almeida viste tænder, Jumbo-Vismas Roglic-sats og de minder af Mark Cavendish, der står klarest i hukommelsen.

Desde el abandono de Evenepoel por Covid, transcurrieron 3 etapas más y se produjeron más incidentes en La Corsa Rosa. Abandonaron 4 compañeros más del equipo belga Soudal-Quick Step y sobre todo tuvo que abandonar el británico del equipo Ineos Tao Geoghegan Hart, ex vencedor del Giro y co-favorito este año.  Las etapas fueron ganadas respectivamente por Magnus Cort, Pascal Ackermann y Nico Denz, y la carrera entra ahora en la segunda mitad decisiva abordando la alta montaña.

En este capítulo de nuestro podcast, repasamos lo ocurrido en estas 4 últimas etapas y consideramos que puede pasar después del primer día de descanso. Pero mientras que estamos en vivo, nos llega una noticia que pone en jaque este Giro d'Italia y que cambio todas las previsiones.

Analizamos todo lo que ha transcurrido en estas primeras 5 etapas, empezando por la victoria aplastante de Remco Evenepoel en la crono inicial hasta la quinta etapa marcada por varias caídas. Víctor Hugo y Johan dan sus opiniones sobre estas etapas y cuál es la situación actual de los favoritos en vistas a la primera etapa de montaña.

Empieza La Corsa Rosa con salida en Pescara y llegada final dentro de 3 semanas en Roma. Todos estamos esperando una lucha entre 2 titanes: Primož Roglič y Remco Evenepoel, pero la pregunta es si será una competición entre ellos dos solamente o si se van a manifestar otros candidatos como Geraint Thomas, Tao Geoganhart o Damiano Caruso y Joao Almeida. Con 8 etapas de montaña y 3 cronos individuales, habrá terreno de sobra para que gane el corredor más completo en la capital italiana.

Je to tu! První Grand Tour roku! Italské Giro buší na dveře a chystá famózní podívanou. V první řadě v souboji o Maglia Rosa stojí Remco Evenepoel s Primožem Rogličem. Konkurence ale nespí! Dokáže dva hlavní favority vyzvat Joao Almeida, Aleksandr Vlasov, Tao Geoghegan Hart nebo snad Thibaut Pinot? Jako bonus jsou tu i sprinty bez jasného favorita, takže je na co se těšit!

Primož Roglič and Remco Evenepoel did an incredible performance on Lo Port in Volta a Catalunya Stage 5 2023. Joao Almeida, Marc Soler, Lenny Martinez, Cian Uijtdebroeks, Mikel Landa, Michael Woods and other closer finishers also did tremendous performances in perfect conditions.

The Volta a Catalunya 2023 has a very competitive field with the crossover of some of the Giro d'Italia favourites and the Tour de France favourites clashing. Notably, it will see a rematch of the Vuelta a Espana last year with strong riders such as Richard Carapaz, Joao Almeida, Remco Evenepoel and Primoz Roglic all in attendance.

Tremenda Paris-Niza, un Pogacar demoledor y la "Carrera al Sol" fue para el esloveno por delante de Gaudu y Vingegaard. En suelo italiano se corrió la Tirreno-Adriático que fue para otro esloveno, Primoz Roglic, que se quedó con la "Carrera de los dos mares" por delante de Joao Almeida y de Tao.

Se fue un inmenso grupo de escapados de alrededor de 40 corredores, y todo indicaba que la victoria de etapa se disputaría desde este grupo. Pero una batalla de Joao Almeida con su equipo UAE contra el Astana de Miguel Ángel López cambió los planes, y en los últimos metros Enric Más y Remco Evenepoel alcanzaron al último superviviente de la escapada Robert Gesink, y líder de la carrera Evenepoel ganó in extremis la etapa y fortalece su primer puesto en la clasificación general.

Joao Almeida is racing La Vuelta a España 2022 with the team UAE Emirates on the Colnago V3RS disc. The Portuguese rider is 1m78 tall and is a candidate for a top 5 finish on a Grand Tour. Please visit www.dmcx.com to see Joao Almeida's bike geometry.

Lance, Johan, and JB take a look at this year's Vuelta Espana to break down the top GC contenders and sprinters. They also explain how different the Vuelta is from other grand tours. Also, if you haven't heard the news, Lance explains his whirlwind trip since the Tour de France ended and the main purpose of that trip.

Joao Almeida Won on Lagunas de Neila in Vuelta a Burgos Stage 5 2022, beating Miguel Angel Lopez in the sprint. INEOS riders Pavel Sivakov and Carlos Rodriguez finished behind them. Ilan van Wilder was 5th, with a shocking performance, Ruben Guerreiro 6th, Jai Hindley 7th.

Dove si chiacchiera di cose trovate in auto dopo molto tempo, del problema dello spopolamento della città di Venezia che rischia di scendere sotto i 50.000 abitanti e ce ne ha parlato Marco Gasparinetti consigliere comunale del Gruppo Terra e Acqua 2020 e infine abbiamo commentato con Guido Foddis il ritiro di Joao Almeida, il ciclista che lui aveva pronosticato come maglia rosa finale.

Otra etapa de montaña durísima hoy y otro día que vimos dos diferentes carreras en una: para la victoria de etapa y para la general. El joven colombiano Santiago Buitrago del equipo Bahrain Victorious fue el más fuerte de los escapados y ganó de manera fuertísima esta etapa. Entre los favoritos, el tercer clasificado Joao Almeida perdió tiempo y Mikel Landa ahora le pasa en el tercer cajón del podium.

With the final week approaching us, we are left to wonder who can still win the 2022 Giro d'Italia. Looking at the GC after the second week of racing, there are 4 key contenders ahead of stage 16 to Aprica: Richard Carapaz, Jai Hindley, Mikel Landa and Joao Almeida. With everything in the balance and only 1 minute between them, the Giro is all to play for.

Giro d'Italia stage 14 was an intensive stage with Bora-Hansgrohe exploding the peloton and pacing hard, creating a strong leading group with strong riders such as Joao Almeida, Richard Carapaz, Mikel Landa, Jai Hindley, Vincenzo Nibali, Domenico Pozzovivo and many more. Juan Pedro Lopez after 10 days in the maglia rosa lost the lead, while Carapaz became the new leader of the race.

Strong GC riders like Simon Yates, Giulio Ciccone, Wilcon Kelderman all lost more than 9 minute to the fastest guys and finished their fight for the GC, while Jai Hindley won a bunch sprint, beating Mikel Landa, Romain Bardet, Joao Almeida and Richard Carapaz.

Es recurrente que, sobre todo por negocio, las grandes vueltas ciclistas empiecen en país ajeno. En el caso de esta nueva edición del Giro de Italia, partirán desde Budapest sin un claro dominador, pero con potentes aspirantes al trono, como Richard Carapaz, Joao Almeida o Simon Yates. Aunque siempre se debe dejar la puerta abierta a nombres como Mikel Landa, más aún con un Giro que prácticamente abandona la contrarreloj. Lo analizamos con Dani Miranda, Marco González y Carlos Arribas. 

The 7th stage saw the Queen stage of the race and Jumbo Visma rose to the occasion with a solid team effort to setup Primož Roglič in the best position to take glory. Ineos and Arkea Samsic did their best and Joao Almeida made a resurgence in the GC to climb into the top 10 and take the white jersey.

It was a crosswind chaos stage as the peloton towards Orleans but it was Fabio Jakobsen that prevailed ahead of Wout van Aert.   There were big time losses for some of the big GC favourites including Joao Almeida, David Gaudu and Maximilian Schachmann.   #parisnice

Paris-Nice 2021 had a dramatic conclusion last year with Primož Roglič crashing on the final stage but the superstar is back to try to stop Maximillian Schachmann from clinching a hat-trick of general classification wins at Paris-Nice. Aleksandr Vlasov and Joao Almeida will also be two of the key contenders for the top step of the podium.

Tadej Pogačar managed to win for the first time up Jebel Jais with the support of his strong team-mates of Joao Almeida and Rafa Majka. Luke Plapp showed some solid form and Filippo Ganna surprised everyone finishing 11th on the stage to only drop to 2nd overall on the GC.

Deceuninck–Quick-Step had an incredible 2021 which had the narrative of three comeback stories - Mark Cavendish, Remco Evenepoel and Fabio Jakobsen. Mark Cavendish managed to take 4 historic stage wins at the Tour de France to equal the all time stage winning record of 34 stage wins that only Eddy Merckx could match. Remco Evenepoel started his season at the Giro d'Italia after his Il Lombardia crash in 2020. Despite a bad start to the season he did manage to win the Belgium Tour, Tour of Denmark and Paris Bourges to name a few. Fabio Jakobsen managed to take the Vuelta a Espana points classification as well as winning 3 Vuelta stages. João Almeida managed to salvage a 6th place overall at the Giro d'italia after a bad start and he also recorded his first stage race victories winning the Tour of Poland overall and the Tour of Luxembourg.   Unfortunately they are losing key riders such as João Almeida (UAE), Sam Bennett (Bora) and Álvaro José Hodeg (UAE).

Puncheurs delight at the Tour of Poland this year with fewer stages for the pure sprinters, the GC will be contested mainly on stage 4 which has a mountainous finish and on the stage 6 TT.Pre-race favourite Joao Almeida will go up against 2018 winner Michal Kwiatkowski. INEOS Grenadiers bring a strong squad for GC whereas other teams also bring a sprinter, the main sprinters being Pascal Ackermann, Fernando Gaviria and Alvaro Hodeg.

In this minisode, I go through my race notebook from today's Giro d'Italia stage 19 (01:00) before Team BikeExchange Performance Director Marco Pinotti joins (13:30) to talk about the looming final time trial on stage 21, DQS' potential mismanagement of Remco Evenepoel, how Joao Almeida is emerging as the strongest rider in this race and his thoughts about how this pivotal final weekend will play out.

In the latest edition of the Bradley Wiggins Show, Graham Willgoss and our knight of the realm are joined by Eurosport commentator and former rider Adam Blythe.The team discuss the brutal climbs of Monte Zoncolan that made for a fascinating Stage 14 of the 2021 Giro d'Italia, Wiggins saying that it is so harsh that things happen in "slow motion."There was also praise for pink jersey wearer Egan Bernal, who Wiggins said is looking "every inch a Giro winner" after another very impressive display. Wiggins also doubled down on saying that Ineos Grenadiers are favourites to win all three Grand Tours with Bernal looking strong for the Giro and Vuelta as well as having both Geraint Thomas and Tao Geoghegan Hart at the Tour de France. Blythe pointed out that Ineos are "packed full of people who can win a Grand Tour" with Richard Carapaz and Richie Porte, as well as Adam Yates, Luke Rowe and Tom Pidcock.Lastly, the team discuss the issues going on at Deceuninck - Quick-Step and there is sympathy for the situation that Joao Almeida currently finds himself in. Both Blythe and Wiggins question some of the DQS tactics but remained convinced that Evenepoel will "be a great champion one day" especially now he's got that Pizza Hut endorsement deal!Stay tuned to the end to find out which mountain Brad and Adam would have wanted to win on if they had the choice.Brought to you by Zwift where fun is fast.

"He's everything I wasn't, and everything I wanted to be," says Brad.With Stage 17 finishing at Madonna di Campiglio, the scene of Marco Pantani's fall from grace, Brad also reflects on his memories of the Pirate's life and death. You can hear more about that infamous day on the 1999 Giro on our cycling history podcast, Re-Cycle: https://podfollow.com/re-cycleMeanwhile, an explosive Vuelta is only two stages old but has seen some huge developments already, most notably the dramatic collapse of Chris Froome on day one, as he lost more than 11 minutes to end his GC hopes before they had even started.Brad leaps to the defence of his former team-mate and says his eyecatching time gaps don't mean anything. Brad backs Froome to potentially win a stage and says that his status in the sport, and within Ineos, means he deserved his spot at the Vuelta. Froome shouldn't be called a shadow of his former self, Brad says.The Bradley Wiggins Show is produced by Pete Burton. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Thirty years ago, poor Brazilian women were paid for their breast milk, leaving their children at the risk of malnutrition. Equipment at the few milk collection centers was so costly that it limited the country's ability to expand the program's reach. That has changed dramatically, thanks in part to Joao Almeida, a chemist who has turned the Brazilian Milk Bank Network into a model studied by other countries and credited with helping slash infant mortality by two thirds. Brazil is the world leader in milk bank development. Relatively unusual in much of the world, donating breast milk is common in Brazil. The network of milk banks works in much the same way as blood banks, testing, sorting and storing milk used mostly to feed premature infants in neo-natal units. When a mother is unable to breast feed her baby due to illness, drug addiction or other problems, the network steps in to offer free milk. Last year, it collected milk from some 150,000 women to nourish around 155,000 babies. Since 1985, Brazil's infant mortality rate has plummeted from 63 per thousand births to less than 20 per thousand last year. This is NEWS Plus Special English. A 12-year study has found that Americans' eating habits have improved, except among the poor. That's evidence of a widening wealth gap when it comes to diet. Yet even among wealthier adults, food choices remain far from ideal. On an index of healthy eating where a perfect score is 110, the study found that American adults averaged just 40 points in 2000. It climbed steadily to 47 points in 2010. Scores for low-income adults were lower than the average and barely budged during the years studied. They averaged lower than those for high-income adults at the beginning; and the difference increased in 2010. Higher scores mean greater intake of heart-healthy foods including vegetables, fruit, whole grains and healthy fats; and they also mean a low risk of obesity and chronic illnesses, including heart disease, stroke and diabetes. Meanwhile, a low score means people face a greater chance of developing these ailments. Public health experts say the widening diet gap between the rich and the poor is disconcerting and "will have important public health implications". Diet-linked chronic diseases such as diabetes have become more common in Americans in general, and especially in the poor. Meanwhile, declining diet quality over time may actually widen the gap between the rich and the poor. You are listening to NEWS Plus Special English. I'm Mark Griffiths in Beijing. The giant African snail damages buildings, destroys crops and can cause meningitis in humans. But some people still want to collect, and even eat, the slimy invaders. The Agriculture Department in the United States is trying to stop them. Since June, the authorities have seized more than 1,200 live specimens of the large snails. Also known as giant African land snails, all of those in the U.S. can be traced back to one person in Georgia, who sold them illegally. The Department discovered the snails through a tip-off from social media at the end of June. From that tip-off, the department seized more than 200 snails from a person on Long Island in New York, who identified the seller in Georgia. The Department then interviewed the seller and seized almost 1,000 more snails in Georgia and several other places. The authorities say it's important to capture the snails without delay because they multiply very fast, producing 1,200 or more offspring a year. And the snails can grow larger than the size of a fist, and have no natural predators in the United States. People are their only threat. This is NEWS Plus Special English. For years scientists have theorized about how large rocks, some weighing hundreds of pounds, zigzag across Racetrack Playa in Death Valley National Park in the United States, leaving long trails etched in the earth. Now two researchers have photographed these "sailing rocks" being blown by light winds across the former lake bed. Cousins Richard and James Norris say the movement is made possible when ice sheets that form after rare overnight rain melt in the rising sun, making the hard ground muddy and slick. On December 20th last year, the cousins catalogued 60 rocks moving across the playa's pancake-flat surface. They observed rock movement occurred on sunny clear days, following nights of sub-freezing temperatures. The conclusion proves theories that have been floated since geologists began studying the moving rocks in the 1940s. The phenomenon doesn't happen often because it rarely rains in the notoriously hot and dry desert valley. The rocks move about 15 feet per minute. The two scientists launched their "Slithering Stones Research Initiative" in 2011. After getting permits from the National Park Service, they installed a weather station in the area and placed 15 stones equipped with global positioning devices on the playa to finish the research.
