Hello good morning!
Will the heat give a respite? What is expected points to the opposite. Will there be an investiture? It seems to get complicated. The challenges multiply and extend to the pocket, borders, health… Uncertainty rules.
After a hot summer, autumn is expected to be very warm and could end up being a record year when record changes are already coming. This summer period, in fact, has been three months of fury as all the extreme weather phenomena have been concentrated.
The harsh sentence of the former Catalan Minister of the Interior for hiring an escort for Puigdemont (four years in prison and 20 years of disqualification), adds more obstacles to the PSOE-Junts negotiation for the investiture, amnesty and others. And time is short.
The tension travels north. After the disaster caused by the earthquake in Morocco and the storm in Libya, it is not surprising that tensions travel further afield: in Italy the island of Lampedusa is overwhelmed with the arrival of 7,000 migrants in 48 hours.
Go for economic security. After the ECB raised interest rates for the tenth time yesterday despite the growing deterioration of the economy, it is not surprising that, this weekend, more than 160,000 candidates – more than 25% in Madrid – are applying for 27,000 civil servant positions.
The mobile phone, again… Pediatricians insist: using screens for more than two hours a day impacts health. Limiting them in the family environment is useful, it is added, but if they then put homework on the tablet… A campaign begins to ban them in class.
More wood for football. Four Real Madrid youth players have been arrested for broadcasting a sex video with a minor under 16 years of age. Furthermore, the investigation does not rule out the possibility of involvement from the first team. There are more and more cases…
Sport transforms and acts as a vector far beyond sport and these days it will be confirmed again as the spectacle of the Vilanova Sailing America’s Cup sets sail. The city changes for the preliminary regatta and its “unprecedented” exhibition.

Cities hostile to sleep exist and have in common artificial lighting at night that takes away hours of rest, harmful cleaning service schedules, and more. The list of measures to apply so that its inhabitants sleep well, of course, also exists.
Friday, cinema, Nanni Moretti! The weekend is approaching and among the premieres on the billboard, comes a film described as “the film we have dreamed of in recent years”, El sol del fututo, by Moretti. Five stars adorn it. And besides there is more.
The dictatorship of Miguel Primo de Rivera, on the centenary of its beginning, is news. Converted into a banner of “law and order”, one may wonder, did it mean the same thing then and today? Here through his mouth.
