It was about taking ARCO to the street to attract citizens to walk through this neighborhood and promote quality tourism. An initiative linked to art. The report 'Spanish excellence: Today & Tomorrow' placed Spain in an acceptable place in this sector with an expenditure of more than nine billion euros in 2018. This study is completed with the confirmation that the luxury businesses of fashion brands , accessories, jewelry and watchmaking accessories increased their sales by 12% last year.

In this famous Madrid street there are international firms such as Dior, Chanel, Bulgari, Nicholas, Cartier, Villamagna Hotel, Dinh Van, Entredós antiques, NICOL'S and Audemars Piguet, among other names directly related to great luxury. According to the lawyer Cuca Perez Castellanos, president of the association, said that this idea was born "to energize this area." "It is the first time that there is a collaboration of a private project, related to luxury, and the City. From the first moment we presented the idea to Manuela Carmena, she found it very interesting and she gave us her support.

The Constitution does not set deadlines for the president, Iván Duque, to submit his triplet to the Court. PHOTO Colprensa It will not be a simple decision. As never before in the recent history of the country, all eyes are on the person who would fill the vacancy of Néstor Humberto Martínez at the head of the Prosecutor's Office. The name will come from a list of candidates that President Ivan Duque will have to present to the Supreme Court in the next few days. The president has already announced that he will take his time to evaluate potential candidates. The Constitution does not set deadlines for it to do so. This is explained by David Suárez, master of law and teacher of Eafit, who adds that whoever chooses the Court "will occupy the position for a period of four years." "In 2014, the Constitutional Court issued judgment C-166, in which the term" institutional "was declared unenforceable for the prosecutor's term, which means that each time someone is elected, it is for a period of four years, "said Suarez. Article 249 of the Constitution specifies that from the list sent by the president, the Full Chamber of the Supreme Court will decide who the new prosecutor is. In accordance with article 5 of the Internal Rules of the court, for the election to be valid, the favorable vote of two thirds of its members is necessary, that is, 16 of 23 judges. However, to date there are six unfilled vacancies, including that left by Margarita Cabello, the new justice minister, which could complicate the process. For example, in 2010, with only 18 magistrates in office, the Court elected Viviane Morales as attorney general by 14 votes in favor. However, in 2012, the State Council annulled the election, as it had not been done because of the 16 positive votes established in the Rules of the Court. This way, it would be more agile for the court to elect new magistrates before the vote takes place. The qualities Another point of debate is the profile that must meet who takes the reins of the research entity. In this regard, Alejo Vargas, doctor in Political Science and member of the School of Thought of the National University, explains that the new prosecutor "should not be a litigant, it has not been a good experience because their work generates too many commitments that later cause disabilities. " The academic said that "it would be desirable for a prosecutor to have significant experience in the judicial branch, in the exercise of a judge or magistrate, or in the academy. And it is important that he is not someone who is aspiring to another position and use the prosecution as a springboard ". Although only the president will be able to confirm the candidacies, in political circles and the Public Prosecutor's Office at least six names of possible candidates have already begun to sound.

In spite of not being a generational change, it presents great improvements that increase its sportsmanship. Porsche launches the New Macan in Colombia, model that we had the opportunity to drive in Mallorca, Spain, a few months ago. It is a sports car of the compact SUV segment, which has been very successful since its launch in 2014. This model arrives in the country in two versions, with turbocharged gasoline engines. One of them is 2.0 liters of four cylinders for the Macan and a V6 of 3.0 liters for the Macan S, that has turbo that is mounted in central position, between the banks of cylinders that form the V to facilitate a shorter route of the exhaust gases between the combustion chambers and the turbo, guaranteeing an extraordinary and immediate response. The new double-entry turbocharger provides better response at low revs. With this technology, known as twin-scroll, the exhaust gases constantly feed the turbine with separate flows and thus significantly improve the load cycle. The evolved development of the geometry of the combustion chamber, with a central injector, achieves a very efficient preparation of the fuel mixture. This helps increase the power per liter from 113 to 118 horses, while decreasing gas emissions. For its part, the 2.0 delivers 252 horsepower and a maximum torque of 370 Nm. With the optional Sport Chrono package and the PDK dual-clutch seven-speed gearbox, the Macan goes from 0 to 100 km / h in 6.5 seconds and reaches a top speed of 227 km / h. The V6 offers 354 horsepower and 480 Nm of torque. With the same equipment, it takes 5.1 seconds to reach the hectometer and its top speed is 254 km / h. Slight cosmetic changes The changes of this model are not only in the engine, it includes improvements in design, which give it a more sporty and modern look. Several details reflect the DNA of the iconic 911 and 918 Spyder. In particular, the lighting section plays a key role since it is equipped with lights that carry LED technology. This lighting system has a module with three-dimensional design that can be optimized with the Porsche Dynamic Light System Plus (PDLS), which automatically adapts the beam distribution. On the back stand a strip of three-dimensional LED lights and four-point brake lights. Total connectivity The Porsche Communication Management system, which now incorporates a 10.9 "HD screen, which is fully configurable, has an LTE connection, Apple Carplay that avoids traffic jams thanks to Waze applications and Google Maps. The steering wheel is also new, it is multifunction and now adds circular control to select different driving modes, as well as the surprising Sport Response buton, which allows the driver to get the maximum performance for up to 20 seconds with just pressing it, a function that discourages To anybody. More confortable The chassis was improved to increase comfort and make the car more fun to drive. The Macan is characterized by the use of wheels of different width for the front and rear axles. As with Porsche's two-door sports cars, this configuration allows the driver to take full advantage of the Porsche Traction Management (PTM) intelligent integral traction system. Newly developed wheels with superior performance get a better dynamic rolling behavior, which increases the driving pleasure, while the renewed wheels range from the 18-inch series to the optional 21-inch. Improved brakes The brakes of the Macan were worked on, especially in the feel of the pedal. This pedal weighs about 300 grams less than the previous steel and acts on the brake pump more directly. With this, the response is more immediate and, in addition, the driver can feel very precisely the pressure point. The even more sporty approach of the new Macan S can be appreciated in larger front brakes, with discs that increased their diameter by 10 millimeters to reach 360 mm. The thickness increased two millimeters and was 36 mm. The new pills do not have copper. The Macan S can also be equipped with the optional Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake ceramic brake system (PCCB). New exterior colors The 'Blue Miami', the 'Green Mamba Metallized', the 'Silver Dolomite Metallized' and the 'Chalk' combined with interior packages that are also new, ensure that there is no Macan identical to another, taking the issue of personalization to another level. The Porsche Macan 2019 is available in Colombia in two versions, with prices from: Macan: From $ 259,000,000 Macan S: From $ 339,000,000

Despite what it may seem, not everything in his life was rosy. Fox was enriched at her expense and her first husband, John Agar, was unfaithful several times The most famous curls in the history of cinema were gone forever five years ago. Shirley Temple will be remembered as that childish icon a thousand times parodied, imitated, revered and hated with flavor to other times. The 'little' died on February 10, 2014 at age 85 leaving behind a legacy of po[CENSORED]rity that dates back to the thirties. Despite what it may seem, not everything in his life was rosy. For example, when Fox, the studio that made her a star, was enriched with films like 'La pequeña coronela' (1935) or 'Heidi' (1937), she only saw 13 dollars a month. His mother received 250 a week and, later, a bonus of 15,000 or 35,000 at the end of each film, depending on the success it had. Although his conservatism prevented him from speaking ill of those years in which he became the national emblem of the United States without hardly realizing it, he later admitted, with a small mouth, that his father had kept most of the money he earned. for their movies. In those years when their charm and 52 curls made Americans happy, suffering from the Great Depression, not everyone agreed with their work and their self-confidence. The writer Graham Green published an article in which he claimed that his films seemed "depraved". The most famous curls in the history of cinema were gone forever five years ago.

(Cordon Press) Although his conservatism prevented him from speaking ill of those years in which he became the national emblem of the United States without hardly realizing it, he later admitted, with a small mouth, that his father had kept most of the money he earned. for their movies. In those years when their charm and 52 curls made Americans happy, suffering from the Great Depression, not everyone agreed with their work and their self-confidence. The writer Graham Green published an article in which he claimed that his films seemed "depraved". Through scenes like the one in which she played a half-naked Cupid in 'Curly Top', Greene exemplified that the girl had middle-aged admirers and that they were fascinated by her "childhood coquettishness". Fox sued the magazine 'Night and Day' and Greene himself for the article and both had to pay $ 3,500 for damages to the child and the studio. That did not stop Greene from referring to her, in successive years, as "that little bitch" Perhaps the spectators came out winning with the permanence of Garland in the film, but for Temple that was the beginning of the end. From then on, everything went downhill. 'The blue bird', an attempt to make a fantastic film and Technicolor on the Oz line, was a major bump that kept her away from the cinema for four years. When she returned, she had to forget about being the protagonist. In 'Since you left', 'I'll see you again' or 'Fort Apache', she was just a secondary teenager with little importance in the plot. In his personal life, he did not seem to be doing too well either. In 1945, at the tender age of 17, he married actor John Agar. He seemed much more interested in the bottle of whiskey than in pleasing his wife. Also, rare was the occasion when he did not bring several women home while she was pregnant. The marriage climax came one night when he arrived so drunk and determined to hit her that she had to leave the house in panic. The most famous curls in the history of cinema were gone forever five years ago.

The 'little' died on February 10, 2014 at age 85 leaving behind a legacy of po[CENSORED]rity that dates back to the thirties. Despite what it may seem, not everything in his life was rosy. Despite all these early swings, Temple ended up finding happiness with Charles Alden Black, who introduced her to the world of politics and guaranteed a new life away from the spotlight of Hollywood. Unlike other early stars, he never victimized his role in the film industry.

Four organizations will start a project to have safer vehicles in our country. Latin Ncap, Despacio Foundation, Global Health Advocate Incubator (GHAI) and Global Road Safety Partnership (GRSP) have joined efforts to create the vehicle safety standards project in Colombia, with which they seek to create awareness among vehicle buyers for that begin to demand security elements. Alejandro Furas, Technical Director of Global NCAP, and Darío Hidalgo, Director of Fundación Despacio, are some of the promoters of this new campaign that will begin to be known through advertising in different media. Hurry! Until today you can pay car tax with a 10% discount Parking lot of the Ministry of Mobility obtained the gold quality stamp The study that explains which is the least safe seat in a car The goal is to help reduce the road accident that costs the country so much, both in lives and in money. According to figures from the National Institute of Legal Medicine and Forensic Sciences, 6,476 Colombians lost their lives in 2018 due to traffic accidents. The 78 percent of these victims were those who are considered "vulnerable road users", ie, motorcyclists, pedestrians and cyclists. Main part of the problem is that most of the vehicles sold in our country do not meet minimum protection requirements for their occupants, much less for the aforementioned vulnerable road users. In figures from Latin NCAP, 4 out of 10 vehicles sold in Colombia are not safe, because, as in the other countries of the region, the basic safety regulations of the United Nations have not been followed here. While in Europe there are more than 75 standards that must be met, Latin NCAP says that in the region they are asking for the adoption of at least the eight most basic of them. Among these are the Isofix rings for children's chairs, stability control (ESC) and protection for occupants in side impact. If these basic regulations issued by the United Nations are to be implemented, Latin NCAP assures that by the year 2030, 440,000 deaths and severe injuries from traffic accidents, and up to 143 billion dollars, could be avoided in the countries of Latin America. An important point to keep in mind is that the cost of implementing these basic vehicle safety systems is not as expensive as one might think in principle. According to the approaches revealed by Latin NCAP, the additional cost per vehicle for the manufacturers would be about 350 dollars, which would not significantly impact the final price that buyers would have to pay to obtain a safer car.

The model, possibly the most spectacular guest of the link of Alejandra Rojas (with the permission of the always elegant Naty Abascal) As it happened at the wedding of Marta Ortega and Carlos Torretta, Eugenia Silva has become the perfect guest at the link of Alejandra Rojas and Beltrán Cabero, which was held yesterday in Toledo. There was a lot of competition, because it was one of the most anticipated links of the year, with the assistance of royalty, aristocrats and top-level celebrities, so Eugenia Silva was at the level that we are used to: perfect! Not to go directly to the modelazo of this link, let us look back a bit and also recreate in that party of the heiress of Inditex (for those who missed it) in the dress 'vintage' by Gianni Versace Haute Couture It had belonged to her mother-in-law, Marisa Yordi, who had completed some Rabat earrings and a clutch of Ylania López. It was fabulous, but in our list of 'best worse' we did not place it in the Top 1 for a small detail: it did not quite comply with the 'dress-code', which required a long dress (and his showed impressive legs even more stylized by very high strappy sandals) However, that honor does correspond to the model, that of being the best of Alejandra Rojas' wedding (with the permission of Naty Abascal, who was also unbearable). Eugenia Silva opted for a halter neck dress, cinched at the waist and pleated skirt, in an iridescent green, made in a mixture of lurex, velvet and satin that also makes us think of the New Year's Eve parties that are around the corner. corner. This is a creation of the Brazilian Raquel Diniz (you can buy it online for just over 1,000 euros), which she completed with some very original sandals from jewels and black feathers by Roger Vivier and the clutch 'Knot Bag' from the Italian firm Bottega Veneta (famous for its braided leather and a 'must' in the dressing room of almost all 'royals') and a bracelet by Bárcenas. By the way, the brilliant earrings, which allows us to see your hair loose with light waves, are impressive.

This was the message that President Ivan Duque sent about the recapture of Jesus Santrich. For President Iván Duque, "the administration of Justice has acted with force against this criminal act." This was said this Friday night, as a reaction to the recapture of former commander of the Farc Jesus Santrich, who was released for a few minutes and then was apprehended again. Excomandantes de Farc, this Saturday, in an emergency meeting in Bogotá The legal debate after the recapture of Jesus Santrich? The facts for which the Office of the Prosecutor will charge Santrich with charges From 'mandadero' by Iván Márquez to a key player in the case of Santrich Duque said that his responsibility towards the latest events, as Head of State, is "the preservation of the institutional soundness of the Rule of Law." In his message, he insisted on the punishment of reoccurrence in which those who, having laid down their arms, commit new crimes may fall. This, he said, "constitutes a slap in the face of the victims and the construction of peace." The President, also, reiterated a message that he has launched several times since the beginning of his mandate, last year: "Let there be no doubt that all the people who have genuinely abandoned the path of violence and remain in their process of reintegration will receive the support and guarantees of the State, but those who reoffend in criminal activities should receive the full weight of the law, "he said.

What measures safety in cars is the effectiveness of their systems and their structure. Although there is still a long way to go, the safety of the vehicles sold in Colombia has become more important among buyers and the obligatory nature of two airbags and ABS brakes was a big step. The question is, does this guarantee that the cars are safe? Not precisely. Looking at the results that Latin NCAP has published of the crash tests carried out, and to name just one example, we find the Chevrolet Malibu that incorporates 10 airbags. Its result: four stars in adult protection and one in protection of children. In contrast, the Honda HR-V with two air bags achieved five stars in both sections, and with higher scores. Given the case that there were no results like these at hand we would not blame whoever bet that the Malibu was the safest of the two and with a wide advantage, but as we see, the reality is not like that. What's going on? After making its crash tests Latin NCAP makes a visual inspection of the structure of the vehicle, which takes into account aspects such as the displacement of the steering column, the pedals and frontal parales, as well as the deformation of the foot area of the vehicle. the occupants of the front posts. The less affected these areas, the better the result. Similarly, the measurements obtained by the dummies' sensors indicate the severity of the injuries a person would have received in their place. This is how electric motorways work for the cars of the future Learn about the discounts and rewards that GTA V brings online Uber sets at 45 dollars the value of its stock for the debut on the stock market The main absorption zone of a vehicle is its front part, from the defense to the base of the windshield. If this area fulfills its purpose, the passenger compartment and passengers traveling there will be favorably protected. The absorption zones, it is worth clarifying, do not stop at the base of the windshield and instead can continue along the vehicle to have a greater area of dissipation of energy and thus achieve better protection of the occupants. In any case, the deformation as a result of the crash should not reach the structure of the passenger compartment and ideally it should be possible that all the doors can be opened to facilitate, if necessary, the work of a rescue team. The faster and easier you can get the occupants of the vehicle accident, the better. But the performance of the structure of the vehicle, as well as the effectiveness of the airbags, should be a last resort, since the ideal is that the accident can be avoided. This is achieved thanks to active safety systems, such as brakes with ABS, stability control and autonomous braking. Systems that, by the way, are already a mandatory requirement in other markets. In an emergency maneuver the ABS will prevent the wheels from locking during braking so that the driver can have control of the car and thus try to evade the obstacle or the dangerous situation. When the person fails to react is that autonomous braking comes into play, which through different sensors identifies if a person crosses the path of the vehicle and, if necessary, applies the brakes immediately. Finally, the stability control avoids that by excessive speed the control of the car is lost, either in a curve or during some evasive maneuver. As the case may be, the system automatically 'cuts' the power and brakes the wheels according to the need (even if the driver still has his foot on the accelerator). Unfortunately, the effectiveness of security systems can only be proven until they are called to action and that is where the importance of organizations like Global NCAP (grouping, among others, Latin NCAP), and the American IIHS (Insurance Institute for Highway Safety) and NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration). Each one, through its protocols and requirements, performs tests on the active safety systems and crash tests, and analyzes the effectiveness of these and the deformation of the structure of the vehicle to know what injuries the occupants would have received. As we mentioned with the example of the Chevrolet Malibu and the Honda HR-V, the important thing is not the number of safety systems equipped by a vehicle, but the way in which they carry out their task.

In the small African kingdom is in mourning after the death of the girl, who has died as a result of skin cancer Swaziland is a small country bordering Mozambique and South Africa that these days is in mourning. With an extension of 17,000 square kilometers and just over 1.3 million people, its absolute monarch, King Mswati III, has just lost one of his thirteen wives, specifically the one that occupied the twelfth position. This is the very young Nothando Dube, who was also known as Inkhosikati LaDube, who died at the age of 31, victim of skin cancer of which she was being treated in a hospital in South Africa. After a vigil night, in the official residence of Ludzidzini, the funeral will take place today Sunday and since the terrible news came they have not stopped producing tributes on social networks. The eldest daughter of the monarch, fruit of her third marriage, Princess Sikhanyiso Dlamini, has pronounced on her Instagram profile about her fight against the disease: "It was strong until the end and exceeded the months planned by the oncologists". Swaziland is a small country bordering Mozambique and South Africa that these days is in mourning. With an extension of 17,000 square kilometers and just over 1.3 million people, its absolute monarch, King Mswati III, has just lost one of his thirteen wives, specifically the one that occupied the twelfth position. This is the very young Nothando Dube, who was also known as Inkhosikati LaDube, who died at the age of 31, victim of skin cancer of which she was being treated in a hospital in South Africa. After a vigil night, in the official residence of Ludzidzini, the funeral will take place today Sunday and since the terrible news came they have not stopped producing tributes on social networks. The eldest daughter of the monarch, fruit of her third marriage, Princess Sikhanyiso Dlamini, has pronounced on her Instagram profile about her fight against the disease: "It was strong until the end and exceeded the months planned by the oncologists". Nothando Dube, who was born on February 6, 1988, had three children with the king, Princess Makhosothando, Prince Betive and Princess Mahlemalangeni. His life next to the monarch does not seem to be precisely a path of roses. In 2011 she told the British press that she wanted to escape her "house arrest" and claimed that she had not seen or spoken to the king since 2010, when her husband accused her of adultery. She, in turn, would have reported that some security guards had abused her. The polygamous king of this country, which he has now changed his name to that of eSuatni ("land of the Swazis"), came to the throne in April 1986 and two of his women have died, since Inkhosikati LaMasango committed suicide the year passed after taking a lethal dose of antidepressants. The monarch has 23 children.

The phenomenon can affect the electrical infrastructure. Auroras are expected at high latitudes. From 6 a. m. Greenwich hour (1 am from Colombia) this Thursday, the Earth will receive in an unusual way the inclement force of the Sun. During its movement through space, the planet will be located in the middle of a jet of energetic particles emitted by the star that governs our cosmic neighborhood, what is po[CENSORED]rly known as a storm or solar flare. Submariner finds plastic bag at 10,000 meters depth The Moon is shrinking due to tremors, according to study According to the scientists' estimations, the inhabitants of the high latitudes will be able to witness a series of manifestations of this phenomenon, ranging from striking plays of lights in the sky - the so-called lights of the north or auroras - to alterations in the electrical and telecommunications systems. This is established by the observations made by agencies such as NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) of the United States, which in recent days have identified the 12741 active region on the Sun -an zone with a sunspot that this week has crossed the central meridian of our star - has been ejecting into space clouds of plasma with average speeds of 500 kilometers per second. These clouds, which are a manifestation of the so-called solar wind, contain a significant amount of material composed mainly of charged particles, such as electrons and protons. After traveling 150 million kilometers - distance that separates the Sun from Earth - this jet will meet our planet. When arriving at the Earth, these particles interact with the magnetosphere, or terrestrial magnetic field, that works like a shield repelente of the burst of particles, responsible for the luminous shows of the aurora borealis, but that also affect more and more the technology. It is at this time that the particle cloud is called a geomagnetic storm. To understand the possible damage to the infrastructure caused by the geomagnetic storm, astrophysicist Camilo Buitrago uses the following example: "any straight wire that is under the influence of a variable magnetic field experiences the induction of an electric current inside it. If we put together many of these wires and connect them to an electrical transformer, these currents can overload the transformer and burn it. This is exactly what can happen during a very intense solar storm. Colombia will participate in project to predict solar storms "In this case," he continues, "the earth's magnetic field is continuously distorted, being able to induce currents in the electrical wiring that connects the big cities, potentiating the burning of large transformers and causing blackouts," he adds. According to the astrophysicist, the issue does not happen to greater thanks to the magnetic field that protects the Earth, which generates a force on the electrically charged particles sent by the Sun, diverting their trajectories and causing them to enter the Earth just for the poles "There, the electrons and protons coming from the Sun collide with the atoms of our atmosphere, mainly nitrogen and oxygen, transferring them energy and putting them in non-stable energy states, which can emit green and violet light. All these colors are mixed to create fluorescent light flows in the night sky: the auroras, "explains Buitrago. According to the astrophysicist Santiago Vargas, the solar wind compresses the magnetosphere and triggers a geomagnetic storm on Earth: "this type of phenomenon is normal, but it is more frequent during the most active periods of the so-called solar cycle, which is currently approaching a minimum. The scientists' estimates indicate that the minimum solar activity should occur at the beginning of next year, so events like this week are unexpected in weak stages of the solar cycle and we have no ability to predict them, "says Vargas. The expert says that the solar cycle, which was discovered in the nineteenth century from the observations of sunspots that now accumulate about 400 years without interruption, lasts, on average, about 11 years, during which the activity of The star fluctuates between moments of higher and lower intensity, experiencing an inversion in the magnetic field between the north and south poles.
