Belgium vs Romania Injuries and Patience in Belgium’s Euro Cup Germany Squad....Eticketing.co
Belgium coach Domenico Tedesco will wait for several key players to recover from injury. Even if it means they miss the opening Euro Cup Germany stages of the European Championship in Germany this month. Veteran defender Jan Vertonghen, midfielder Youri Tielemans and defender Arthur. Theate are being given time to play in the tournament because they are considered vital to Belgium’s cause, Tedesco said on Tuesday.

"Of course, you prefer to take players who are fully fit, but that's okay. We want to wait and be patient for some players even if they cannot play in those first matches," he told a press conference. The 37-year-old Vertonghen, Belgium’s Euro Cup 2024 most-capped international with 154 appearances, is struggling to shake off a groin injury.
"He will be there normally. This also applies to Youri Tielemans and Arthur Theate. The latter's position is very sensitive. We don't have many choices at left back. "It will only change if it turns out that they will only be available when, say, the final of the Euro 2024 Championship comes around. That's too long to wait. "However, I am confident that the injured boys are on track for the Euros.
Belgium vs Romania: Radu Dragusin Prepares for Crucial Role in Euro Cup Germany
Some of them have taken not one but two steps forward in their rehabilitation," he said. None of the injured players will feature in this week’s warm-up friendlies against Montenegro and Luxembourg. Romania centre-back Radu Dragusin found chances limited at Tottenham Hotspur in the second half of the 2023-24 season.
But is crucial to his country's cause at UEFA Euro 2024 where his aerial ability, physicality and hard graft make him a standout player. The 22-year-old moved to North London from Italian side Genoa in January but was kept on the sidelines by the form of another new arrival for the season, Mickey van de Ven, something Romania coach Edward Iordanescu admitted was a concern.
It will mean limited game-time going into the finals, but Dragusin, who cites Netherlands defender Virgil van Dijk as a role model, started every Euro Cup Germany qualifier as Romania went through the campaign unbeaten in their 10 games. He will be among their most important players in their first game in Germany against Ukraine in Munich on June 17, taking the right centre-back role in what is likely to be a back four.

Narrated Business Proposal for the Philadelphia Eaglescamrynascott12
Slide 1:
Welcome, and thank you for joining me today. We will explore a strategic proposal to enhance parking and traffic management at Lincoln Financial Field, aiming to improve the overall fan experience and operational efficiency. This comprehensive plan addresses existing challenges and leverages innovative solutions to create a smoother and more enjoyable experience for our fans.
Slide 2:
Picture this: It’s a crisp fall afternoon, driving towards Lincoln Financial Field. The atmosphere is electric—tailgaters grilling, fans in Eagles jerseys creating a sea of green and white. The air buzzes with camaraderie and anticipation. You park, join the throng, and make your way to your seat. The stadium roars as the Eagles take the field, sending chills down your spine. Each play is a thrilling dance of strategy and skill. This is what being an Eagles fan is all about—the joy, the pride, and the shared experience.
Slide 3:
But now, the day is marred by frustration. The excitement wanes as you struggle to find a parking spot. The congestion is overwhelming, and tempers flare. The delays mean you miss the pre-game excitement, the tailgate camaraderie, and even the opening kick-off. After the game, the joy of victory or the shared solace of defeat is overshadowed by the stress of navigating out of the parking lot. The gridlock, honking horns, and endless waiting drain the energy and joy from what should have been an unforgettable experience.
Our proposal aims to eliminate these frustrations, ensuring that from arrival to departure, your experience is extraordinary. Efficient parking and smooth traffic flow are key to maintaining the high spirits and excitement that make game days special.
Slide 4:
The Philadelphia Eagles are not just a premier NFL team; they are an integral part of the community, hosting games, concerts, and various events at Lincoln Financial Field. Our state-of-the-art stadium is designed to provide a world-class experience for every attendee. Whether it's the thrill of game day, the excitement of a live concert, or the camaraderie of community events, we pride ourselves on delivering a fan-first experience and maintaining operational excellence across all our activities. Our commitment to our fans and community is unwavering, and we continuously strive to enhance every aspect of their experience, ensuring they leave with unforgettable memories.
Slide 5:
Recent trends show an increasing demand for efficient event logistics. Our customer feedback has consistently highlighted frustrations with parking and traffic. Surveys indicate that a significant number of fans are dissatisfied with the current parking situation. Comparisons with other venues like Citizens Bank Park and Wells Fargo Center reveal that we lag in terms of parking efficiency and convenience. These insights underscore the urgent need for innovation to meet and exceed fan expectations.
Slide 6:
As we delve into the intricacies of our operations, one glaring issue emer

3. Wilderness Update: White Pine County
Political Update:
The White Pine County Commission decided on January 28th to
recommend approximately 520,000 acres from the Nevada Wil-
derness Coalition’s Citizen Proposal. The original proposal
found 730,000 acres in the county suitable for wilderness. This
recommendation is the result of years of hard work both in the
field and on the ground throughout the state and we at the Pro-
ject are excited by such a favorable recommendation from the
Commission. As the County’s recommendations make their way
back to Washington, DC, we will continue to advocate for the
Coalition’s entire proposal. Our efforts in White Pine County
are far from being over and draft legislation has not even been
brought before Congress yet. As legislation begins to take shape
and enter the Congressional process, we will need your support

Backcountry Adventure!
Over the President’s Day Weekend 13 members and
6 dogs traveled to the Schell Creek Range of White
Pine County in search of dry powder and big back-
country ski lines. We were not disappointed. It
snowed roughly two feet while we camped in Berry
Creek Canyon and even though temperatures dipped
well below zero during the night, we were able to
ski for three solid days in complete solitude. New
members who had never traveled east of Austin
before were literally awe struck by the size and
beauty of the Schell Creek Range. With peaks
reaching well above 11,000ft, flowing creeks,
Basque shepherd carvings with the Aspen stands,
and the occasional bristlecone, there is plenty to Schell Creek Range
marvel at. And who knew that areas besides the
Ruby Mountains received upwards of 40 inches of
snow a year? All the more reason to check our website for trips out East, so that you to can unlock the mysterious secrets of East-
ern Nevada. Please check our website under “Wild Trips” for a complete story and full range of photos!

4. Biking and Fieldwork in Blue Mass / Kern Mountains
Proposed Wilderness Areas in White Pine County
The Blue Mass/Kern Mountain Proposed Wilderness area
encompasses 30,951 acres of the most remote and rugged
country in White Pine County. Elevations ranging from
6,500ft to 9,500ft and unique grant spires topping out at
100ft make this place very worthy of wilderness designation.
Currently, the White Pine County Commissioners have not
recommended this area for wilderness designation. We still
believe that Blue Mass should be wilderness and for this
edition’s spotlight, we asked loyal member and intrepid
fieldworker Mike Colpo to take us all on a brief tour through
an area that he spent six weeks inventorying. Before Mike’s
story begins, it should be stated that not only did he spend
six weeks doing fieldwork for us, he did it all by bike. His
reflections are genuine and are the obvious result of time
well spent in the remotest wilds of our state. The article be-
low offers a glimpse into this wild corner as well as a snap-
shot of life as a fieldworker.
Bike Mountain, Make Wilderness
By: Mike Colpo
“Wilderness,” by both popular and political definition, is a large physical space devoid of the artifacts of human interference—no
occupied permanent structures, no motors, no roads. The vast, dramatic landscapes of the American West inspired our modern un-
derstanding of Wilderness, drawing hordes of pioneers westward intoxicated with the twin dreams of freedom and adventure. The
opportunity and enigma these open spaces offer continue to challenge our modern understanding. To be something eligible for pro-
tection under the law, Wilderness must be a concrete thing, something that can be measured and documented. But in places such as
the wide open stretches of modern-day Eastern Nevada, this much is obvious: Wilderness is quite indifferent to the feeble boundaries
we place around it. It is limited only by imagination. It is a state of mind, a reality that can be entered with an odd mixture of
choice, conviction, and surrender. And contrary to popular belief, you can go there on your bike.
The Kern Mountains are an awfully long way from most people’s definition of “somewhere,” and not what most would consider the
top choice for a bike tour destination. The mountain range is tucked away in
one of the most isolated corners of Nevada, a state that itself lays rightful
claim to being out in the middle of nowhere. To reach the Kern Mountains
from my home in the relatively populated western part of the state is no
small undertaking: First, drive East from Reno for six hours to Ely. Hit Ely,
turn north, drive for another hour. Keep a sharp eye out—blink, and you’ll
miss your last chance for gas. Keep driving. Look for a dirt road on your
right. Turn right. Drive east, three hours. Yes, three more hours. Once
there, peel yourself from the sweat-soaked seat, emerge slowly from the car,
and plunge headlong into the all-consuming silence of complete wilderness.

5. NWP Fundraising Update from Mackenzie
I am excited to share this unique opportunity with you, our dedi-
cated members!
Two generous donors have provided us with a $30,000 challenge
grant. This means that if we can raise $30,000 by March 15, it will
be matched for a total of $60,000!
I am asking you to seize this opportunity to double your impact on our work throughout
Nevada. An additional gift of $50, $100, $250 – or whatever you can afford – will be
doubled!! That means your additional $50 nets $100 for the Project; $100 nets $200; $250
nets $500.
Today I ask for your help. If you believe, as I do, that everyone should enjoy the wonder
of wilderness, please dig deep into your heart and your pocket, and send an additional
$50, $100, $250 or whatever you can afford. With your continued support, we can
soon leverage this generous challenge grant into yet another wilderness victory!
- Mackenzie Banta, Development Director
Ventura Event
The Nevada Wilderness Project kicked off this matching campaign with a fundraising event down in
Ventura, CA at the Patagonia headquarters. Patagoniacs helped help support our cause via their tum-
mies! By donating, they received a pancake breakfast in the morning and started the weekend off
early that afternoon with margaritas and smoothies. We raised over $6000 that day with the generos-
ity of the Patagonia culture. Many thanks to the hard working volunteers and hungry staff!
