The Colombian knows his Tour squires. It is an experienced team. Nairo Quintana already knows the seven teammates he will have in the Tour de France, which will depart from Brussels on July 6, with an online stage of 194 kilometers. Next to Quintana will be Mikel Landa, Alejandro Valverde, Marc Soler, Imanol Erviti, Carlos Verona, Nelson Oliveira and Andrey Amador, with the slogan of going for the crown that has eluded the team in recent years. 'I do not think Nairo will win the Tour de France': Greg Lemond Nairo and his soldiers for the Tour de France Nairo already knows who his teammates are for the Tour de France This is how Bardet sees the rivalry with the Colombians in the Tour de France The squad arrives with the incentive of having won the Giro d'Italia with the Ecuadorian Richard Carapaz, but in the Tour everything will be at another price. It is clear that it has two leaders: Nairo and Landa, and that with the passing of the competition will know who will go to work to fight for the general classification. Valverde is not a man who will fight for the outposts, he is already 39 years old and his goal, as he has argued, is to help Quintana and Landa to win the competition. Your experience will be fundamental. This time, the Boyacá will not have compatriots as squires, which also happened in 2013 and 2018; of rest, always had a Colombian support. In 2015 and 2016 he was accompanied by Wínner Anacona, and in 2017 the turn was for Carlos Betancur. Nairo, at the press conference before his trip to Europe, asked Eusebio Unzué, manager of the team, to consider Anacona to accompany him on the Tour, but that did not happen. The only debutant of the team is Verona, 26 years old; everyone else has competed in the Tour. In fact, everyone has helped one or several times in the Quintana case in search of the title of the French race, so it is not an issue worth deepening. Everyone knows each other, they know what to do; The Tour is a family run for them. The first big challenge will be Sunday, in the 27 km team time trial, but they are not candidates to win, and the idea is to lose as little time as possible. Valverde will arrive at his Tour number 12, Erviti will be part of lot number nine and at 35 years old. Only Nairo Quintana has made podium in three occasions: twice second, 2013 and 2015, and in a third opportunity, in 2016. Next to Valverde, third in 2015, they are the only two cyclists on the team who finished in one of the three boxes of the podium in the history of the Tour. Landa, with whom Nairo will fight the leadership, has been three times in the Tour: finished of 35 in 2016, finished fourth in 2017 and last year was in the seventh box, one more incentive to say that he can lead the team in the present edition. The goal of Movistar is equal to the Ineos of Geraint Thomas and Egan Bernal: win the Tour, whoever it is.

Jesús Manuel Ruiz climbs the tables of the Amaya Theater to tell feelings and emotions through well-known poems of the last three centuries The Madrid Amaya Theater (C / General Martínez Campos, 9) hosts this weekend the production 'Coincidences (in verse)', a story about two people who go by train and during their trip review emotions and feelings that have been collected throughout the last three centuries poets like Miguel Hernández, Federico García Lorca or León Felipe. The characters tell the story of those poems, of which the text has not been modified at all, reflecting current issues such as violence, clandestine love or animal abandonment. But that the word 'verse' of the title does not lead anyone to deceit. As Jesus Manuel Ruiz, protagonist and creator of this production, qualifies, it is not a recital of poetry: "We do not read anything, everything is memorized and dramatized." The writers' works have a presentation, a knot and an outcome, so that look like prose. " Although Jesús Manuel is known for his connection with television, his love for acting is earlier: "I studied psychology and dramatic art in secret, because my parents would not let me in. And, although people know me more as a journalist, first I am an actor " All the poems that come out of the voice of Jesús Manuel Ruiz are accompanied by music. The piano of the murcian Pablo Martínez Pino becomes the other protagonist of this special work. From his keys will come both original compositions, composed by Pablo Martínez himself, but also by great authors, such as William Gillock, Robert D. Vandall or Francisco Alonso, known for his pasodobles.

The analyst Pablo González, who lives on the island, explains the consequences of the new extradition law against which they protest massively The extradition law from Hong Kong to China is one more step that would favor Beijing to gradually regain full control of this city and end its status as Special Administrative Region. In other words it could be interpreted as the preparation of the "landing strip" of this city in the territorial and administrative order of China. For its residents, it is the change of the formula "One Country, Two Systems" to "One Country One System" (Asian Survey, 2019). In addition, its power to attract foreign investment would also be affected. Since 1997 Hong Kong began a process of reincorporation to the Chinese territorial and administrative order. This process is the result of the 1984 Joint Declaration of China and England. As agreed between England and China, Beijing undertook to give special treatment to Hong Kong for 50 years (until 2047), granting it a status of Special Administrative Region framed in the formula of Deng Xiaoping of "One Country, Two Systems" for the reunification of territories (Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macao). Under this formula, China claims to respect the independence in administrative and economic matters, this makes Hong Kong maintain a different executive, legislative and judicial power than China, a different currency and a totally different economic system (capitalist different from the socialist with Chinese characteristics ). In the 80's Hong Kong was already an economic reference and investment center of great interest to China that in the 90's saw the fruits of the gradual economic reforms and opening to the world promoted by Deng Xiaoping since 1978. (Economic reforms without major change in the politician In addition to its enormous economic and commercial importance, Hong Kong as well as Taiwan are part of the central interests of China, its recovery and full control has a great nationalist meaning and dye, because these territories were lost during the so-called "Century of Humiliation" for China after the first Opium War (1839-1942) and the first Sino-Japanese War (1894-1895) respectively. Therefore its total control, dominance and not allowing any kind of foreign influence is a way of telling the world that China will never tolerate again any interference that affects their interests. From Hong Kong most of the foreign investment flows to mainland China, the city is among the ten largest exporters worldwide, has the second largest stock exchange in Asia and strategic position for the capitals of the booming economies of Asia Pacific, between other many characteristics, also the position of greater port is disputed with the Chinese cities like Ning Bo and Shang Hai (Expansión Mex, 2014). It is a key point for the ambitious project of global Chinese interconnection of the Strip and the Route (3 trillion dollars) for its proximity to the Strait of Malacca where more than 25% of the goods cross the world (UNAV, 2018) . After having reviewed the importance of Hong Kong for China and returning to the main theme; the extradition law has a background that would not only allow for the extradition of criminals persecuted by Beijing, but Hong Kongans fear that human rights defenders, political dissidents, activists, and anyone who opposes or criticizes the Beijing government may be extradited also, where we often see in the media that there is no respect for human rights, there is no due process but there are precarious conditions in prisons, these are situations contrary to the freedom enjoyed by the citizens of Hong Kong. Clearly this generates discomfort and great concern in a territory where the majority of the po[CENSORED]tion does not want to rejoin China where the system of checks and balances is almost nil due to the Chinese Communist Party's control over all members of the government, where there is a great restriction on freedom of expression and currently control over the unprecedented po[CENSORED]tion. In 2014 the citizens of Hong Kong had already demonstrated to demand greater autonomy and respect for the Joint Declaration of China and England, the citizens demanded that the elections be done in such a way that the leader of the executive power of Hong Kong was directly elected by suffrage independent universal without citizens having to choose between a small group proposed by a pro-Beijing majority committee with candidates with strong connections with the Chinese Communist Party.

The artist, a reference in contemporary pop art, has been inspired by the well-known brand of automobiles to create one of his well-known polyhedral meninas with, in addition, charitable purposes. Art, modernity and solidarity meet for what promises to be one of the summer's artistic events, which comes from the hand of Felipe García-Bañón Sanz-Briz, known by the artistic name of Felipao, a reference in the world of pop art. Inspired by the DS Automobiles brand and the artistic perspectives of the design of its vehicles, it has created one of its known polyhedral meninas, the most ambitious and special and with a solidary purpose: "It is elegant and sophisticated and its passion for taking care of details is something very interesting The interior finishes, with their exquisite treatment of the textures and the use of surprising materials in the automotive world is a source of inspiration ". An inspiration that comes in the form of fiberglass sculpture, with a height of 1.65 meters and composed of 448 polyhedral faces, which highlight the nuances of the 'millennial' blue color in which it is made. The use of color, together with the technique and the projection of light, is one of the hallmarks of the artist. The part of the skirt has been designed fusing the DS pattern and some of the techniques typical of the automotive world with the polyhedral figures that compose it. It is a unique work of art, resistant to the sun and the inclemency of the weather thanks to the type of paint and a double layer of lacquer. This sculpture is part of an itinerant exhibition that can already be seen in the DS Store in Madrid, on Doctor Esquerdo Street 62. From there it will travel to Barcelona on July 18, and then stop in Santander, Alicante and Malaga. Along with the Menina DS, you can enjoy other works of Felipao, some of them also inspired by the automotive world and the identity of the DS brand: fusion of modernity and tradition, laboratory materials and ancestral techniques that represent a new milestone in the world of creation. At the end of his particular 'tour' in Spain, the artwork will be auctioned for charity in favor of the CRIS Foundation against Cancer through the auction platform Balcis, at a starting price of 14,000 euros, at www. .balclis.com / en / auction-in-benefit-to-the-foundation-cris /. This foundation focuses its efforts on the promotion and development of research against this disease. Currently, he supports studies on several types of cancer in the main hospitals and research centers of our country, so the lucky owner of the Menina DS will also enjoy the satisfaction of having collaborated for a more than important cause.

The head of the White House had a historic meeting with the leader of that country, Kim Jong Un. Donald Trump rewrote a page of history with North Korea on Sunday by becoming the first president of the United States to step on North Korean soil, in a meeting with Kim Jong Un that allowed to reactivate the negotiations on the nuclear program. More than a year after its first summit in Singapore, the two leaders met again, this time in an emblematic place, the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ), which separates the two Koreas since the end of the Korean War (1950- 53). Trump agrees a new trade dialogue with China United States ends the blockade of Huawei after agreement with China Kim Jong-A praises 'the invincibility' of his relationship with China Since the DMZ was implemented in 1953, all US presidents (with the exception of George Bush Sr.) visited that iconic border, but none managed to meet with a North Korean leader. Accompanied by the leader of Pyongyang, dressed in his traditional anthracite Mao suit, the American tycoon crossed the line of demarcation that materializes the border and took several steps in North Korean territory, before turning around. They then posed for the photographers behind the demarcation line, in the village of Panmunjom, where the armistice of 1953 was signed. "It's a great day for the world," said the US leader, saying he was "proud to have crossed that line." For his part, Kim Jong Un said he hoped to "overcome the obstacles" thanks to his "wonderful" relationship with Trump. "The fact that the two countries, despite a long list of hostilities, can shake hands for peace in a place that symbolizes division (...) shows that the present is better than the past," said Kim Jong. Un.Kim has already crossed the border to the South last year for its first DMZ summit with South Korean President Moon Jae-in. "Do you want me to cross the line?" "I will feel very honored if he does." With these words, Trump and Jong Un fulfilled a new approach, apparently spontaneous, that seemed implausible until the last moment. They are cement tiles, some centimeters high, that symbolize the most hermetic border of the world. It was on the other hand the emblematic town of Panmunjom, where the truce was signed, the one chosen for this third Trump-Kim meeting.

The brand presents its motorcycle of the future, it will be electric and its appearance preserves the DNA of BMW's powerful machines. As part of the Next Gen 2019 event held by BMW in Munich, Germany, the brand presents its future models, including the BMW Motorrad Vision DC Roadster, a motorcycle driven by an electric motor, without losing the identity and the iconic look that has characterized the BMW Motorrad models. Edgar Heinrich, Design Director of BMW Motorrad, pointed out that "the boxer engine is the heart of BMW Motorrad, an absolute unconditional element of its character. But BMW Motorrad also represents visionary concepts of zero emission vehicles. After all: anyone who has tried it in practice knows very well that driving on two wheels is just as exciting when powered electrically! The high level of torque just at the moment of disconnection makes the acceleration impressive. This almost brutal energy delivery creates a completely new experience of dynamic performance. And the BMW Motorrad Vision DC Roadster projects this experience. " A futuristic machine, but with a familiar look From the brand explain that in a motorcycle, the engine is the centerpiece, is the fundamental element that provides the basis for the entire architecture. But the components of the electric unit have completely different requirements in terms of installation space. Whereas in a conventional motorcycle the size of the motor is determined mainly by its capacity, the battery occupies the most space in the case of an electric vehicle. Considering that the electric motors are compact, in the space that a combustion engine would occupy, the battery was placed that is surrounded by ventilation elements. The cylinder-shaped electric motor is located below the battery and is directly connected to a universal shaft. Dynamic aspect The profile of the BMW Motorrad Vision DC Roadster shows dynamism and agility, thanks to elements such as the flat tubular structure, located where a fuel tank would go and combined with a modern design seat, which together project the flight line of a sports roadster. It also highlights the minimalist design of the front and rear lights, distinguishing elements of BMW Motorrad lighting. The headlight shows daytime LED driving light in a dynamic and flat U-shape, while two compact LED lenses on each side provide high and low light. The new motorcycle comes with a special outfit for the pilot A functional two-piece suit that is not instantly recognized as protective clothing but as modern clothing. The jacket with large graphics and informal black trousers feature sewn-in protectors almost invisibly, while the integrated technologies allow for various lighting functions, as well as the digital connectivity of the future. An asymmetrical backpack vest rounds off the driver's equipment for the vehicle.

He has been the only player in the national team that has been a starter in the three matches of the Cup. At the beginning of the Copa America, Juan Guillermo Cuadrado was the great uncertainty, if he was going to play as a starter in the National Team and in what position. He had not been comfortable in previous friendlies. However, the tournament started and there he was, in the match against Argentina. He was a starter and one of the most outstanding in that victory. But his level dropped in the next two games. Today his name is back in the debate. Are you ready to play the quarterfinal match against Chile? And, if he does not play, who could replace him? Cuadrado accumulates 186 minutes in the tournament, has been a starter in all three games, something that no other player of the National Team has done, because against Paraguay there were 10 changes, and he only remained. He came from showing a high level against Argentina, where he dominated the position perfectly, he was seen with sacrifice, courage and brand, as when he knocked down Lionel Messi to recover the ball at any cost, and also with his offensive game, usual, the known. But in the last two games he has been seen off, without his usual dynamic, without the same spark. The debate around Cuadrado began in the friendlies prior to the Copa America. Then coach Carlos Queiroz put him to play in the first line of flyers. Cuadrado did not shine, his level was low and it was noticed that it cost him the position, more delayed than usual and with many defensive tasks. He himself came to recognize: "Because of my characteristics, my position will always be for the bands," he said, and he thought it was something momentary. "In Juventus I made that position, but I feel more comfortable on the sides," added the player. After shining against Argentina in the new position, and to lower level against Qatar, he returned to play later against Paraguay, but he did not stand out either. For all this, the question is generated in front of its ownership for this Friday, a questioning that in other circumstances would not have a place, due to the importance that the player has in the National Team. With Square or without him? Juan Guillermo Cuadrado is one of the symbols of the National Team. A player who has played two World Cups, four America Cups, eliminatory. A player with many scrolls and positive background that support his stay in the titular team of Colombia. In the hands of Cuadrado, the team has fought many battles. Perhaps what is criticized the most is that it is impaled with the ball, that it loses some unnecessary ball. But its character for this type of matches, like the one Colombia will have against Chile tomorrow, is unquestionable. "We work to dream, for that we are day by day here in the National Team and we hope in the end to achieve the goals we are looking for," Cuadrado said during this Copa América, after the game against Paraguay in which he played 58 minutes, because although it has been In the three games of the first phase, he never plays the 90 minutes. Against Argentina was replaced at minute 19 of the second half and against Qatar, at the same moment, at 19. The doubts about the ownership of Cuadrado also go through the other possibilities that the National Team has in that area of the field and, especially, in the approach of Carlos Queiroz, with those three flyers. What the coach has already done, during the development of the matches, has been: against Argentina, the one that entered was Jefferson Lerma, against Qatar the DT entered to Falcao and with him he gained offensive volume, in a very closed match, and already against Paraguay that area was conformed by Lerma, Cuéllar and Cardona, Cuadrado played higher and was replaced by James Rodríguez. In conclusion, if Cuadrado does not start, its place could be occupied by Cardona or Lerma, since Barrios and Mateus seem fixed. One indication is that against Paraguay rested all the holders, except Juan. The final decision - which surely is already very clear for the coach - is Carlos Queiroz, for a match against a fast and dangerous opponent in the midfield, an area where Colombia can not give an advantage.

What it offered to the guests during the Saturday evening was unimaginable: an enchanted forest, the portraitist of the stars, Coldplay and magic everywhere 'Into the Woods'. The title of the famous Broadway musical may well define the theme of the impressive party that marked the end of the wedding weekend of Marta Ortega and Carlos Torretta. Two days where they have shared a table, tablecloth, drinks and dances with friends and family and if on Friday adorned the Nautical A Coruña, last night completely transformed the horse riding of Casas Novas leaving us all breathless. And no, Vanitatis was not invited to such an illustrious event, however, once again we managed to sneak in thanks to our most faithful ally: social networks. From the dance of the couple to the cake, going through the incredible musical performances and a fourth wedding dress. We have all the details (with images included) of the great party of the season. And it is that neither the fair of Chiara Ferragni (with ferris wheel included) has been able to dwarf the party madness that the heirs of Inditex and Torretta organized last night to celebrate their love. Read, read, they do not lack detail. The arrival to the forest The horse riding of Casas Novas was, as we anticipated a few weeks ago, the second stage chosen for the great wedding of the season. A scenario that in itself could be strange for the celebration of a wedding but that was extraordinarily transformed into a fairytale forest. The guests, who mostly arrived by minibus from the center of A Coruña, had to go through the fire trail that led to the equestrian gate as soon as they got off. Everything painted very well. The entrance was transformed into a wooden corridor that simulated the entry into a tree and that led to an enchanted garden in which rows of tables illuminated by candles and small lights hung from the ceiling gave the room a magical halo as if from another world. A marvel. The projection of the wedding Once all the guests were seated, the couple projected a small video almost made up of photos and videos of the ceremony of the previous day, which only 50 of the more than 400 guests could join later during the different celebrations. In the images, unpublished photos of the wedding, scenes of Marta talking to her father, Amancio on his big day and a lot of family love all this, in black and white. (We have not seen the first dress of Marta's color yet.) The other two dresses But hey, let's forget the dresses of the first day. At least for the moment. Last night she wore not one, but two dresses that once again make it difficult for us to choose which one we were with. Upon her arrival at the big night, Marta wore an impressive long silver dress, with a neckline in front and on her back. The dress code of the second night demanded a great gala for them and a tuxedo for them. The bride took shelter under a cloak of the same color as the dress that gave her a fairytale-like halo from Disney. His already husband, opted for a suit of classic cut, very in line. But this, however, was not the last look we saw him. Although three were the dresses that were speculated on in the days before the link, finally there were four who wore. And is that, cut the cake and finished the performances, Marta was changed again, she let go of her hair and wore a new light pink dress, puff and word of honor with which danced all night. In fact, he was the designer of at least two of his four dresses, Pierpaolo Piccioli, creative director of Valentino, who retransmitted most of the night through his social networks. Three performances without equal Oh, the performances! Who would not want a wedding like that? And, since the dinner began, the rosary of singers of international stature on stage did not stop until after the dance. The first to delight the guests with their music was Norah Jones, who gave the ears of those present sitting at the piano with some of her greatest hits such as 'Sunrise' or 'Come away from me'. Two delights ... And here was not everything. With the start of the party, it was the turn of Jamie Cullum who in a matter of seconds managed to lift everyone from their seats to run to the front row to dance with their successes. Although without a doubt, the finishing touch was Chris Martin. The vocalist of Coldplay was in charge of putting music (at the piano) and voice to the expected dance of the bride and groom that to the sound of 'Yellow' delighted their guests with one of the most romantic moments of the night on stage. Next and to return to the festive atmosphere, Martin touched all his great successes, including 'Fix You' and 'Viva la vida'. A real waste before which some guests like Jon Kortajarena and Eugenia Silva were tremendously moved. The portraitist of the stars And the surprises were not here. Peter Lindbergh was commissioned to immortalize with his incredible portraits the guests who accompanied the couple during the incredible party.
