While the autumn temperatures begin to take effect Sheephaven divers continue to take full advantage of the local dive sites and were back in the water on Saturday and Sunday mornings. Saturday mornings dive was at a new location in Mulroy Bay, as conditions out to sea were quite poor due to a northerly breeze pushing across an ebbing Spring tide. In contrast the run up to Broadwater Bay was in much better conditions and gave the divers the opportunity to look at a new dive site between Juniper Island and Park Point, near Cranford Bay. Interest in this site stemmed from local information that it was from the jetty at this location local emigrants for America embarked upon Lord Leitrim’s yacht Ganiamore, which subsequently connected with the Atlantic steamers for the onward journey. Today ruins of a building and a lime kiln mark the location from which the sad journey would have begun for the people from Fanad. If it was from here they commenced on their great adventure then possibly from a diving perspective there was some indication of their presence at this location a hundred years ago. However in the 6m deep water between Juniper Island and Park Point there was no evidence that the site had been to either moor the Ganimore or that it was an embarkation point for American emigrants. The sediment seabed is nearly entirely covered with dense but short stemmed seaweed, with occasional clear patches of seabed. However what was of great interest to the divers was the marine life, with the presence of a number of empty Ray egg casings and then to top it all a sighting of a juvenile Thornback Ray, no bigger than the palm of the divers hand. Ten years ago there would have been regular sightings of mature Rays in Mulroy Bay, but their numbers had dwindled, however thankfully they appear to be making a come-back and Saturdays’ sightings confirms that opinion. With Saturday morning’s air temperature in single figures the water temperature also has definitely dropped back, down to less than 12 degrees for the first time since the spring, while water visibility was excellent at over 10 metres horizontally. Sunday morning’s Sheephaven activities was a lovely snorkel out from PortnaBlagh, where the welcome return of Robin Law to the water after a bout of poor health was marked by a donation from his wife Mary to Sheephaven Search and Recovery Unit. Mary has recently retired from her role with the Dunfanaghy Country Market and at her retirement benefit a sum of €202 was raised, which was generously donated to Sheephaven Search and Recovery Unit. For the snorkelers in-water conditions were near perfect with clear water for the snorkelers across the harbour to the caves and the nearby Golf Course point and to top it all off was the sighting of Dolphins in the bay, finishing out a lovely weekend in the water.Sheephaven Sub-Aqua club dive off Juniper Island was last modified: October 18th, 2016 by Mark ForkerShare this:Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)Click to share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)Click to share on Reddit (Opens in new window)Click to share on Pocket (Opens in new window)Click to share on Telegram (Opens in new window)Click to share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window)Click to share on Skype (Opens in new window)Click to print (Opens in new window)Tags:diveJuniper IslandOFFSheephaven Sub Aqua ClubSport

The three defendants are scheduled to be sentenced Dec. 16. The victim and the three convicted defendants were gang members, Osorio said. There was no evidence that Falcon was a gang member, he said. Barba had gone over to a friend’s house in the 40500 block of 174th Street East early Jan. 3 to pick up the CD when he was confronted by the defendants, who challenged him by asking, “Where are you from,” Osorio said. He responded with a gang name, and the defendants replied with their gang affiliation, and a fight ensued, Osorio said. Jurors convicted three men but acquitted a fourth in the gang-related slaying of a teenager who was gunned down in Lake Los Angeles as he drove away from a friend’s house. Eighteen-year-old Ernesto Barba was shot and killed in January 2004 after a fight with a group of men who had been standing outside a house where he went to retrieve a music CD. George Marron, 24, Jose Medina, 25, and Raymond Vallejo, 24, each face up to 50 years to life in prison after being convicted Wednesday of first-degree murder by a Los Angeles Superior Court jury. The fourth defendant, Jason Falcon, 26, was found not guilty, Deputy District Attorney Benny Osorio said. Barba then got into his car and drove off, Osorio said. “When the car is driving away, Medina runs into the middle of the street and starts to shoot 13 rounds. The car is found crashed two blocks away. Barba was shot in the back of the head,” Osorio said. Falcon had held back one of the witnesses for several seconds while the witness was trying to help the wounded Barba, Osorio said. “Vallejo and Marron are guilty as aiders and abettors. The consequence of getting into a gang fight is that there would be a homicide,” Osorio said. “They were fighters.” Barba was a student at Desert Sands Continuation High School but was preparing to start a new job the week after he was killed. Medina was arrested in February 2004 in Texas after investigators learned he might have left California and alerted other police agencies around the country. The others were arrested in Lake Los Angeles in the two months following the killing.
