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.

Gonzalez Lasso scored the only goal in the blue win at El Campin. With the right thing, with nothing left over, without this time having many options to score, Millonarios did the first task, winning: 1-0 defeat to the Magdalena Union in El Campin, against 15,244 spectators. He was in debt for not having scored at least one more goal. The square A dominates Deportivo Pasto for that, precisely: for one more goal. Therefore, Saturday's match at 2 p. m. in Ipiales, will be key to the future of both teams. Millonarios insinuated, at the beginning, that could overwhelm the Magdalena Union, which had an initial approach that did not work. The coach Hárold Rivera, aware of the potential that has Millos for the bands, decided to put together a defense of three and put lanes, to try to cover the exit. The experiment was fatal, because neither the slowness of the centrals, nor the location of the laterals, served to correct the problem. Cali and Junior, two colossi forced to victory Pasto is still unstoppable: now beat the Americas in Ipiales The incapacity of Felipe Jaramillo was confirmed Millionaires already knows the penalties for Mackalister Silva and Román Dimayor quotes Pinto for his statements after the game with America Rather, Millonarios found all the space available to hurt, especially in the left zone, where Juan David Pérez began to be important. First, they committed a penalty that judge Nicolás Gallo did not sanction, when they put a swipe at his face inside the area. And then, from a play of his, the first goal was born, when he left Cristhian Subero behind, hooked in and finished off the goal. The goalkeeper César Giraldo stopped midfielders, with his feet and not with his hands, and left a rebound so that Fabián González Lasso scored the 1-0, at seven minutes. "It's a game that we knew we had to win, what to add. Things went well, "Pérez told Win Sports. "These are already final. They have a great team, we can make specific and now we are going to recover well, "he added. The effervescence lasted Millonarios, maximum, ten minutes more. Rivera corrected his mistake without needing to change the scheme he had put together, simply by demanding that his players press up, with an impressive physical effort. The comforts that the blues had had at the beginning disappeared as if by magic. Pinto's team felt the absence of Mackálister Silva, suspended after his expulsion on Sunday against America, but available for the weekend. And also that of Christian Marrugo, whom the coach decided to leave in the bank in this match. Neither of the two replacements, Elíser Quiñones and Santiago Montoya, changed by Marrugo in the second half, fulfilled what was requested by the coach. The first did not come out and had a couple of shots without direction. Union Magdalena did not feel the height. Except for David Ferreira, who started to take his team forward until the 40 years he has already passed bill and had to be replaced: the lack of air won the talent that has not lost. The team had management, took the ball from Millionaires, made it look uncomfortable. But that dominance was not transformed in depth: this time, the goalkeeper Wuilker Faríñez did not have almost work, as he had happened in previous dates. The only action of real danger, that finished inside the local arch, was invalidated by outside place of Yulián Gómez in the previous play. But if the concerns did not go through the court, where there must be many headaches is in the medical department of Millionaires. The losses of Luis Payares and Felipe Jaramillo, who miss the remainder of the semester, now adds the González Lasso, who first had a cut in the face and then had to be replaced by Roberto Ovelar. At least, on Saturday they can return Silva and Andrés Román, for a key game for the future: a goal difference can leave the team without a prize, if it is neglected.

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.

The ex-guerrilla denounced that in recent months several signatories of the Havana pact have suffered violent acts, including attacks and homicides, and that after the abandonment of arms, paramilitarism has been strengthened in areas where that insurgency once operated. After making a recount of the latest violent events that have suffered several members of the former FARC guerrilla, the now political party called on the international community and the Colombians to demand that the government comply with the agreement. "Yesterday (Saturday) in the department of Guaviare, limits with the department of Meta, was viciously murdered Giovany Murillas (Cristobal) and other members of our party, in Risaralda and Arauca, were threatened with death by the La Cordillera paramilitary structures and the Colombian Self-Defense Forces (AGC) ", said this group publicly. The antecedents that have been filling the ex-guerrilla's glass, have to do with the killing of Samuel David González Pushaina, a seven-month-old boy and son of a former combatant of the Farc de la Guajira, who received several impacts in mid-April. of bullets of men who shot indiscriminately against their father's house. The other fact is the murder of ex-guerrilla Dimar Torrez, who appeared shot and with signs of torture in the rural area of Norte de Santander. This homicide, in which members of the VI Division of the National Army would be involved, has generated all kinds of controversies between the ex-guerrilla and the Minister of Defense, Guillermo Botero, who has not recognized the situation as something delicate in the framework of the pact of Havana. "These events are the result of the lack of guarantees and security on the part of the government of President Iván Duque, despite the fact that the Peace Agreement includes measures and tools for that purpose. Facts like these show that the current policy of the government is still to tear the Agreement apart, being complacent with the quota of blood claimed by friends of war, "warned the FARC. It should be noted that last March, in the annual report on the human rights situation in Colombia, the office of the high commissioner and the secretary general of the United Nations, stressed with concern that after the signing of the peace agreement they have been murdered 85 ex-combatants of the Farc. Today, the number has increased by almost 90 murders and the UN Verification Mission continues to do the same: "These situations create a serious risk for the stability of the peace process, which has led some ex-combatants to abandon it", sentenced the report.

Smartphones have long replaced our cameras and our music players. Now they are taking over our cars. Telephones are replacing things like our car's navigation systems, radios, and even allow us to receive text messages without taking our eyes off the road. With CarPlay and Android Auto, drivers can even read text messages while driving and then issue a response that will become a text message in response. That's one of the most important functions of these systems, said Mark Takahashi, an editor at Edmunds.com. "Text messages have become such an important part of communication today," he said. "Eliminating the distraction of texting while driving is essentially eliminated with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, it's incredibly useful." READ: Goodbye to TomTom? Your next car could carry Google Android integrated When it comes to keeping drivers' hands off their phones, CarPlay and Android Auto actually performed better than any of the systems that automakers have created, according to a recent Consumer Reports survey. Even so, said Babbit of General Motors, automakers can not simply give up on creating a good interface of their own. CarPlay and Android Auto do not work for everything and depend on a strong mobile phone signal, which is not always available. Automakers can even integrate applications such as Spotify and OpenTable into the car in a way that could be better than what phone manufacturers can offer because General Motors knows the car better, he said. Also, not all car buyers have the latest smartphones that work with these technologies. "Therefore, part of that is making sure that we bring, safely, your digital life to the car," he said.

He was defeated in Barranquilla by Melgar, 0-1, and ended his participation with only 3 points. Junior of Barranquilla lost again in the Copa Libertadores, this time 0-1 against Melgar of Peru, and in this way he does not achieve the goal of consolation he had of qualifying for the Copa Suramericana. The area was led unopposed by Palmeiras with 15 points. San Lorenzo finished in second place with 10 and Junior sank in the last with 3. The locals had the first clear opportunity at 5 minutes in a corner kick where Teo Gutiérrez received in the small area and sent a shot that Carlos Cáceda saved. However, the Peruvians scored in the 16th minute after midfielder Joel Sanchez got rid of two rivals in the vicinity of the area and sent a center back that came to Cuesta, who got his second goal in the continental tournament. Junior had several scoring options through Daniel Moreno and Teo Gutiérrez but he crashed with Cáceda. The Melgar appealed to the backlash to try to hurt but only managed to be clear when Sanchez appeared, who led the attacks that contained without major difficulties the local defense. The only clear chance for the visitors after the goal was a corner kick in which the ball was inside the area to Uruguayan midfielder Nicolás Freitas, who sent a loose finish that his compatriot Sebastian Viera saved without problems. In the complementary stage, coach Julio Comesaña sent forward Michael Rangel to the court. The clearest opportunity for the locals came in the 55th minute, when goalkeeper Viera took a free kick that bounced on the horizontal of the opponent's goal and drowned the goal screech from the Barranquilla fans. Both teams generated several more opportunities but with the passing of the minutes the intensity of the game fell and the Colombians saw their chances of playing the Copa Sudamericana were diluted. In the end, Junior said goodbye to the Libertadores after six days. He only won one game and one goal. The Peruvians added two victories over the Barranquilleros and a draw against San Lorenzo. The coastal team, now under the command of Julio Comesaña, has to fight for the Colombian soccer star. 0. Junior: Sebastián Viera, Marlon Piedrahita, Rafael Pérez, Willer Ditta, Gabriel Fuentes; Luis Narváez (m.65, Roger Torres), Víctor Cantillo, Sebastián Hernández; Freddy Hinestroza (m.79, James Sánchez), Teófilo Gutiérrez and Daniel Moreno (m.46, Michael Rangel). Coach: Julio Comesaña. 1.

The two sisters-in-law have uploaded very similar images just in the week in which the media publishes that they have a bad relationship Even Fran Rivera has had to face the rumors that Eva González and Lourdes Montes do not get along. The protagonists of the story themselves have not opened their mouths. Coincidences of life (or not), this week the two have shared two images almost equal (and pastoral) in your Instagram account. Eva González appears next to her offspring between sheep and grass. "Discovering the world together ...", he writes under his mother's stamp. The one that does practically the same is Lourdes Montes, who also appears in the field, looking towards the sun and carrying a baby cart. "Two months being one more at home," writes Fran Rivera's wife, referring to her son. The truth is that the two images can not be more similar, as if the sisters had agreed to reappear in networks exhibiting their motherhood. The two publications take place in the week in which a thousand pieces of information have appeared in the media claiming that they were misbehaving. The own Fran Rivera had to leave to the passage of the rumors on the enemistad between his wife and the one of his brother Cayetano. "That news is totally false," said the right-hander to Vanitatis. Later he gave more explanations in the program of Antena 3 'Espejo público', where he collaborates. There he said that Eva and Lourdes coincided last weekend: "They were eating at home on Sunday." Coincidence or not, the sisters-in-law continue with their children, their carts and their lives. What they get along with or not just time (or themselves) will tell.

President Nicolás Maduro warned on Wednesday of a possible "military escalation" from Colombia, following denunciations from the neighboring country about the presence of more than a thousand ELN guerrillas in Venezuelan territory and a violation of their sovereignty. There is an escalation of statements that could end in a military escalation on the border of these criminal forces of Colombia against Venezuela (...) and everything is part of the plan of US imperialism, "Maduro said in a televised address. "I have ordered special precautionary measures at the border. To all the military units of the border, maximum alert, "said Maduro, without specifying what provisions he was referring to. Maduro's statements come after Wednesday the commander of the Colombian Military Forces, General Luis Fernando Navarro, denounced that almost half of the guerrillas of the National Liberation Army (ELN) take refuge in Venezuela. The Colombian Foreign Ministry also denounced on Wednesday an incursion of some thirty Venezuelan soldiers in its border territory. Maduro is in the midst of a struggle for power with the opposition Juan Guaidó, recognized as interim president by fifty countries, who on June 30 led a failed uprising that failed to break the support of the Armed Forces to Maduro. From Bogotá "they accuse us (...) to justify some military conflict, when it is the other way around, it is Venezuela that is attacked from Colombia," said Maduro. "Everything is part of the miserable plan of (the president of Colombia) Iván Duque, who dragged the government of Donald Trump puts at his service to Colombia for an aggression against his sister Venezuela," said Maduro. The president guaranteed that his is a "country of peace", but his Armed Forces "are prepared to defend the sacred territory of Venezuela in any circumstance, whenever and wherever".

The electric car company said on Wednesday it lost $ 702 million in the last quarter. Their income also decreased by 37% compared to the previous quarter. Wall Street was already preparing for what one analyst called an "apocalyptic" quarter, but the results were much worse than expected. While the company has recorded losses of this size before, analysts surveyed by Refinitiv predicted that Tesla would have around 301 million dollars in red for the quarter. The real number was more than double that amount. MIRA: What awaits Tesla now before the worst sale in its history? Tesla's stock declined slightly after the gains were presented, but then fell back to par. The company had posted consecutive gains in the two previous quarters. The last quarter, for example, Tesla recorded a profit of $ 139 million in sales of $ 7.2 billion. There were a couple of reasons why Tesla is so red, according to Karl Brauer, executive editor of Kelley Blue Book and Autotrader. First, a $ 7,500 federal tax credit was cut in half for Tesla vehicles at the beginning of the year. So brands like Porsche, Audi, Mercedes and Hyundai are entering the electric vehicle market, which gives Tesla significant competition for the first time in the company's history, Brauer said. "None of these problems, by themselves, would cause the severe drop in sales and revenue that Tesla experienced in the first quarter, but the combination was powerful," Brauer said in an email late Wednesday. "Even more worrisome? None of these problems will disappear. This is the new normal for Tesla. " CEO Elon Musk said during a conference call with investors that the last quarter may have been difficult, but Tesla has a hopeful outlook. The demand for Tesla's three electric vehicle models is strong, he said. "We also have many markets [overseas] where we have not yet taken advantage of demand, especially Model 3," Musk said. LEE: Tesla releases the long-awaited Model 3 of $ 35,000 Tesla revealed earlier this month that it delivered about 63,000 vehicles to customers in the first three months of 2019, a drop of 31% compared to the previous quarter, and the largest decline it has reported. The company said on Wednesday it expects its sales figures to look much better in the next quarter. The company has said it encountered "many challenges" in increasing deliveries of its vehicles overseas, but said those problems should be solved soon and that there could be a big sales blow down the road. LOOK: Tesla's new model: salvation in difficult times? The slowdown in sales is bad news for Tesla because the company needs cash to pay off its considerable debts. Tesla said he finished the last quarter with 2.2 billion dollars of cash in hand, which the company had previously described as "sufficient." Executives also said they expect cash stores to "grow steadily" in the coming months. At one point of the call, Musk briefly alluded to a controversy that has plagued Tesla over the past few months. In Wednesday's earnings call, an analyst referred to the quarterly reports as a "distraction" that diverts people's attention away from Tesla's leadership and dominance in the electric car market. Musk laughed and said that he obviously "would prefer that we were a private company (not listed on the stock market)." READ: The SEC says Musk would be disrespecting that his lawyers should pre-review his tweets The CEO of Tesla has been in a confrontation with the US Securities and Exchange Commission. (SEC) since he tweeted that he was "considering" the possibility that the auto company was private last year, and that he had obtained funds. The SEC said funding has not been secured, and has accused Musk of cheating investors.

The Uruguayan had his first contact with the press after assuming for the ninth time as DT. Julio Comesaña is back in Junior. Actually, he has never left. The Uruguayan took for the ninth time as coach Tiburón and already thinks about the match against Melgar, to qualify for the Copa Suramericana, and in the home runs, which will begin the weekend. Here, his first sentences: Your relationship with the club. "I am part of Junior, I am Junior in his history as a player and as a coach. That generates confidence because I do have a sense of belonging. I have a relationship back and forth with the club: I will have been wrong, but I have an affectionate commitment of responsibility. It's different when I go somewhere else: I have a commitment and I do it well, but this has a different emotional charge. " The objectives in his return. "This was a good option. Bringing a person who does not know anything here would have been very traumatic for the players and for everyone. I want to remember something that I have not heard for a while: this team is the current champion, the team that enters the field is the champion, not just any team. We have to play how the champions play, defend the prestige. What was achieved was with capacity. The dream can not end because he won a title. " The campus. "Here is the majority. Who is missing, Jarlan Barrera and Yony González, the others are. There are others who arrived and who have to know where they arrived, what is the requirement we have. That has to be analyzed calmly, talk with reality. There is memory, there are habits that had been generated. Not every day there are opportunities: we have Melgar on Wednesday and on Sunday the finals begin, these things do not happen every day, many people would like to be in this situation ". The cabal of the shirt. "They are going to say that I do not buy a shirt, that I keep all the money ... There are things that sometimes represent a lot for one from a psychic point of view. Everyone has their beliefs. I have my shirt around, suddenly I'll wear it one day. "

The heiress of Inditex will reappear this weekend in the international jumping competition of Casas Novas to live one of the most emotional moments of her life Marta Ortega will reappear this weekend after her wedding with Carlos Torretta. A two-day event in La Coruña that collapsed the newsrooms and left us wanting more. After her honeymoon in India, the heiress of Inditex will once again appear before the media on one of the most emotional days of her life. And it is that under the incomparable frame of the international contest of jumps that each year is celebrated in Casas Novas (the equestrian of the family where it celebrated the great party of its wedding), Marta Ortega will take advantage of this so relevant appointment in its calendar to dismiss one of its pillars: Carlo 273. Marta Ortega will reappear this weekend after her wedding with Carlos Torretta. A two-day event in La Coruña that collapsed the newsrooms and left us wanting more. After her honeymoon in India, the heiress of Inditex will once again appear before the media on one of the most emotional days of her life. And it is that under the incomparable frame of the international contest of jumps that each year is celebrated in Casas Novas (the equestrian of the family where it celebrated the great party of its wedding), Marta Ortega will take advantage of this so relevant appointment in its calendar to dismiss one of its pillars: Carlo 273. Marta Ortega (Vanitatis) Marta Ortega (Vanitatis) A thrush horse of the holsteiner race that Amancio Ortega gave him for his wedding with Sergio Álvarez and since then he has ridden successfully. In fact, many are the ones who point out that thanks to Carlo, Sergio has become the rider he is today, with a track record with which he would dream any of his competitors across the world. It is not for less, the fame precedes to this equine, no longer by its race (it has blood of champion), but indeed by its results. In the opinion of the experts consulted by Vanitatis, Carlo has been one of the best jumping horses among those in Spain (as we said is not a Spanish horse) and his career as well as brilliant has been longer than expected. And this type of horses compete for 12 years (they live around 20) and he has teamed up with Sergio Álvarez for more than a decade. "He now has an age and has also been dragging several problems," say these experts. is that rivers of ink were written at the time of the wedding about the impressive gift that Amancio made to his daughter and indirectly to his then-son-in-law (now the father of his grandson and namesake). At that time, it was even said that it could have cost more than 12 million euros. However, the truth is that the figure would be closer to 3.5, according to experts in the field.

On Monday, the most complete report on the current state of biodiversity was presented. We tend to think that human beings are outside the effects, but everything is interconnected: nature contributes to regulate the climate or the quality of the air and offers us food and energy, so that its alteration has a direct impact on life human and economic development in the world. As an example, this negative trend will affect the fulfillment of the Sustainable Development Goals set by the UN for 2030 in 80% of the cases analyzed, in terms of poverty or famine, among others, which makes the decline so much an environmental issue as a social one. The study, the first intergovernmental on this scale, rules out compliance with the global biodiversity targets set for the period 2011-2020, but its authors trust that it will serve as a basis for the roadmap to be marked next year in the convention on biodiversity that the UN will hold in China. It is not too late to change course, but only if it starts already and at all levels, emphasizes the IPBES, an independent body promoted in 2012 by several UN agencies and composed of more than 130 governments. Establish effective fishing quotas and marine protected areas, promote practices that reduce soil erosion and sustainable agriculture, take advantage of the environmental knowledge of indigenous communities and modify harmful subsidy policies for biodiversity are some tips. Containing the rise in global temperature below two degrees centigrade is also crucial: the percentage of species at risk of extinction due to climatic reasons is 5% with a warming of two degrees, and in 16% when it rises to 4 degrees. ,3. Experts from 50 countries worked for three years on that radiography of the planet in the last five decades, which offers a grim diagnosis of the impact of economic development on nature and its nearly eight million species. The deterioration has reached unprecedented levels in human history and life on earth as we know it is dangerously close to a turning point, highlights Argentina Sandra Díaz, co-president of that study. At least 680 species of vertebrates have disappeared since the 16th century and more than 40% of amphibian species, 33% of coral reefs and more than one third of marine mammals are in danger. A provisional estimate places the percentage of threatened insect species at 10%. Between 1980 and 2000, 100 million hectares of tropical forest were lost, mainly for livestock raising in Latin America and plantations in Southeast Asia, mostly palm oil.
