Rui Manuel Monteiro Silva, ComIH (born August 3, 1977) is a Portuguese track and field athlete, who represents Sporting Clube de Portugal. As a distance runner, he specializes at the 1500 and 3000 m events, although he has at times run the 800 metres as well. He is the national champion at 1500 m.
He was the Olympic bronze medalist at Athens in 2004, where he went from last place to third place in less than 400 meters, his last lap being in 51.3 seconds. His last 800 meters of that race were run in 1:46.3, believed to be the second-fastest final 800 metres of any 1500-meter race in history (behind Abdi Bile's 1:46.0 at the 1987 World Championships). Injuries prevented him from participating in various international competitions from 2007 to 2009.
In addition to his Olympic medal, he won the 1500 m bronze at the 2005 World Championships in Athletics. He has had much success indoors over 1500 m, having won the World Indoor title in 2001 and taken the European Indoor title on three occasions.

Rui da Silva (born 25 April 1968) is a Portuguese producer and DJ, whose single "Touch Me" went to number one in the United Kingdom in 2001. At the time, he was the only Portuguese musician to have a hit in Britain, and hence was the first to score a chart-topping hit there.
Silva started producing house music in 1992, just as club culture was getting established in Lisbon. Noticing the lack of dance music labels in Portugal, he teamed up with DJ Vibe to form Kaos Records, the first label in Portugal specialized in house and electronic music.
His first major hit (and Kaos' first release) was "Não", a track that sampled vocals from a Xutos & Pontapés track, released under the alias Doctor J. With DJ Vibe, he also formed the Underground Sound of Lisbon project in 1993. A year later, their track "So Get Up" (which featured spoken word vocals by rapper Ithaka) achieved worldwide fame after getting picked by the Tribal America label and support from Danny Tenaglia. Tenaglia also remixed the track.
Silva (or da Silva or D'Silva) is the most common surname in the Portuguese-speaking countries, such as Portugal and Brazil. Its meaning is derived from the latin word 'silva' meaning "forest or woodland".
It is also widespread in regions of the former Portuguese Empire in America, Africa and Asia, including India and Sri Lanka. Movement of people has led to the name being used in many places; da Silva is the fifth most common surname in the French department of Val-de-Marne, outside Paris and it was the 19th most-common family name given to newborns between 1966 and 1990 in France.
O guarda-redes, de 22 anos, ganhou o lugar na baliza madeirense a temporada passada e parece não estar disposto a perder o lugar, dando garantias ao seu treinador. O guardião do CD Nacional foi presença assídua nas seleções jovens de Portugal até aos sub21. Deixem nos comentários nomes de jogadores que gostariam de ver no canal!

Rui Silva comenta o último jogo do campeonato e o seu último jogo da carreira.
O FC Porto ainda não conheceu esta época outro resultado que não a vitória, somando 14 triunfos em igual número de jogos no Andebol 1 e 42 pontos, mais dois do que o Sporting, segundo classificado. O próximo rival (esta quinta-feira, às 18h00, no Dragão Caixa) é a ADA Maia, que está no nono lugar (24 pontos) e tem vindo a subir de forma, batendo mesmo o Madeira SAD na última ronda. Rui Silva admite que os adversários têm a motivação extra de procurar derrotar os Dragões pela primeira vez, mas faz notar que os portistas também estão “fortes e confiantes” .
Something that I felt today, something that I heard
Swingin' from the chandeliers, hanging on your word
I remember watchin' you, once upon a time
Dancing from across the room in another light
A little bit of resolve is what I need now
Pin me down, show me how
A little bit of resolve is what I need now
Pin me down, show me how
Lookin' back to find my way never seemed so hard
Yesterday's been laid to rest, changing of the guard
I would never change a thing, even if I could
All the songs we used to sing, everything was good
A little bit of resolve is what I need now
Pin me down, show me how
A little bit of resolve is what I need now
Pin me down, show me how
One more year that you're not here has gone and passed you by
What happened to you, what happened to you?
One more tear that you won't hear, has gone and passed you by
What happened to you, what happened to you?
A little bit of resolve is what I need now
Pin me down, show me how
A little bit of resolve is what I need now
Pin me down, show me how
A little bit of resolve
(One more year that you're not here has gone and passed you by)
A little bit of resolve
A little bit of resolve
