Upon leaving the court, the musician was frustrated by the fact that the complaints, which he classified as unfounded, reached a trial. Ed Sheeran didn't copy his world hit Thinking Out Loud. This conclusion was reached by a US court at the end of a lawsuit over a copyright lawsuit brought by the estate of Ed Townsend, the co-writer of the Marvin Gaye song Get it On. Warner Music Group and Sony Music Publishing, producers of the British idol, were also included in the legal action, filed in New York. The interpreter of hits like Shape of You and Eyes Closed always denied the accusations and evidently that if he was found guilty, he would leave his musical career. "If that happens, I'm done, I stop," when asked about the cost of the trial in Manhattan federal court. In response to the court's decision, news reports noted that Sheeran stood up and hugged his team after the jury found that he "independently" created his song. Ed Sheeran maintained that he composed the song at his home in London with his friend Amy Wudge. The singer expresses himself Once out of court, Sheeran said he was "obviously very happy" with the ruling. "It looks like I won't have to retire from my day job after all," he told reporters. He also expressed himself as "absolutely frustrated" with the fact that the allegations, which he classified as "unsubstantiated", had reached a trial. "If the jury had decided this matter differently, we would also have to say goodbye to the creative freedom of composers," he added. Artists must be able to create original music "without worrying every step of the way that such creativity will be wrongly challenged," they said. Sheeran also told outside the court that because the trial was held in the United States, he missed his grandmother's funeral. "I missed being with my family during my grandmother's funeral," he blurted out. "It's a time I'll never get back." What happened at the trial During the civil trial, Sheeran sang and played parts of Thinking Out Loud on guitar. Kathryn Townsend Griffin, daughter of songwriter Ed Townsend, accused Sheeran of copyright infringement. She said that she wrote the song at her home in England with her friend Amy Wudge and that she had been inspired by her grandparents and a new romantic relationship that had just begun. Sheeran's lawyer, Ilene Farkas, told the jury that the similarities in the chord progressions and rhythms of the two songs were "the letters of the alphabet of music." "These are basic musical building blocks that composers now and forever must be free to use, or all of us who love music will be poorer for it," he said. Keisha Rice, who represented the Townsend estate, alleged that her clients were not claiming ownership of basic musical elements, but were referring to "the way these common elements are uniquely combined." Last year, Sheeran won a copyright battle in London's High Court for his 2017 Shape of You. But he also faces claims about Thinking Out Loud from a company owned by investment banker David Pullman that has copyright interests in Gaye's song.

In recent years, crossfit has become a very po[CENSORED]r practice: more and more people are interested in finding a sport capable of challenging their limits. And this one, of course, puts them to the test. In the 1990s, American entrepreneur Greg Glassman founded the CrossFit brand as a fitness program that combined a wide variety of movements, performed with great intensity. The workouts include strength exercises, cardiac and respiratory resistance, flexibility, joint mobility and motor skills. In practice, this translates into lifting weights, running, jumping, and performing gymnastic movements, among other exercises, in sessions that last approximately one hour. Such a variety of activities and challenges, compared to the monotony of other disciplines, favors the motivation of the participants. And that is its first advantage. Benefits for body and mind Regarding its direct physical effects, the habitual practice of crossfit increases strength, muscular resistance, flexibility and coordination. His exercises help prevent cardiovascular diseases, increase muscle mass and improve joint mobility. In short, to enjoy a metabolism that works better by spending less. In daily life, this allows us to rush to catch the bus without getting tired or picking up heavy objects easily. It can also help us keep up with the daily rhythm, go on trips and play with our children, cousins or nephews without ending up exhausted at the end of the day. In addition, crossfit promotes a sense of community and camaraderie. Trainings are done in a group, which encourages collaboration and creates a stimulating environment. This can be especially beneficial for those seeking a support group on their journey to a long-term healthier and more active life. Are there contraindications? Like all kinds of exercises, crossfit also carries some prejudices about its practice. The most common is that it causes many injuries. In reality, they are similar to those caused by sports such as rugby, soccer, weightlifting or gymnastics. And among them, shoulder and lumbar spine injuries stand out. In any case, we must bear in mind that any form of exercise carries its risks if it is not carried out correctly. Experience may prefer a protective factor. Another widespread idea is that only young people are capable of doing crossfit. However, as the training includes a wide variety of exercises, it can be an accessible sport for everyone. The important thing is to work with a qualified coach who adapts the activities to the level of the person who practices it. Finally, a study shows that crossfit fans tend to take supplements (such as protein or creatine) or follow certain types of diet whose benefits are not proven or are not recommended for all types of people (paleo diet, ketogenic diet...). The worrying thing is that the only source of information for almost half of the participants in the aforementioned work had been the Internet. Reasons to recommend it As health workers we seek prevention and health promotion, and crossfit can be an effective tool to achieve these objectives, taking into account the following aspects: Physical Health. This sport helps prevent or control diseases such as obesity, diabetes or hypertension as long as we are aware of the importance of practicing it safely, using appropriate techniques and progressing gradually. Mental health. Regular exercise has been shown to have positive effects in reducing stress, anxiety and depression. In the specific case of crossfit, we must add that sense of community that we highlighted among its benefits. Healthy diet. The use of supplements, the monitoring of a specific diet or the control of biological parameters that are supervised by a professional. In short, crossfit should be recommended as long as it is an activity adapted to our abilities and is directed by health specialists and experts in this sport. Whoever decides to try it should be informed about its potential benefits and also its risks. *This article was published on The Conversation and reproduced here under the Creative Commons license.

Several people in the taxi line at the Atocha-Almudena Grandes station, on May 2, 2023. Alicante, Valencia, Madrid and Barcelona are the cities that have received the most tourists and visitors during this May long weekend. Alberto Ortega Europa Press Activity in the services sector in Spain returned to strong growth in April driven by strong demand, but there were no signs of weakening inflationary pressures. The HCOB PMI purchasing managers' index of commercial activity in the Spanish services sector, prepared by S&P and Hamburg Commercial Bank, stood at 57.9 points in April, below the 59.4 in March, but far from the 50 that separate growth from contraction. Thus, after the contraction of the manufacturing PMI in April to 49 points from 51.3 the previous month, the composite index of private sector activity in Spain in April stood at 56.3 points, compared to 58, March 2. Employment in the service sector increased in April at the strongest rate since 2001, against a backdrop of business continuity and with the highest growth in new orders since November 2021, according to S&P Global. The companies surveyed mention that the momentum of economic activity is maintained by the improvement in demand conditions, especially in the tourism industry and, in particular, foreign tourism. The good performance of demand in April is reflected in the strong increase in new orders, which will increase at the fastest rate since November 2021, including the largest increase in foreign orders since 2014. employment record This increase in orders and pending tasks prompted service companies to increase their workforces in April for the seventh consecutive month, although they were unable to avoid the accumulation of pending orders, and there was the largest increase in employment in just over two decades. The report notes that strong demand prevented inflationary pressures from easing, causing both buying and selling prices to accelerate in April, as buying and selling rates strengthened and remained at historically high levels. In this sense, the companies surveyed pointed to the increase in labor costs as a key component of the last round of inflation, while they took advantage of the strong demand to raise their prices and try to improve their profitability. One year ahead, companies in the service sector remain optimistic with the forecast of a sustained improvement in demand that will allow activity to grow. However, the report stresses that "many market watchers" will be alert to heat waves, because they are likely to have negative economic effects, "possibly also on tourism." in good shape "The services sector in Spain remains in good shape," says Cyrus de la Rubia, chief economist at Hamburg Commercial Bank, in a commentary accompanying the report, highlighting the "excellent" demand situation and good data from hotel occupancy, given the "crucial" importance of tourism for the Spanish service sector. "It should be noted that both the PMI purchase price index and the sales price index reveal higher readings," he points out, for whom this evolution contrasts with that observed in other large euro area economies such as Germany and France and suggests that the pressures inflation in Spain "continue to be significant". Eurozone activity accelerates to 11-month highs Spain, along with Italy, have been the most dynamic economies in the euro area last month, with the composite PMI index at 54.1 points from 53.7 the previous month, its best reading in eleven months, with Spain at Italy as the most dynamic economies. However, "Italy and Spain are currently the main driving forces behind the growth of the services sector in the euro area," de la Rubia highlighted, who partly explained the rise of the countries of the South to the greater relative weight of tourism. In April, the PMI index for the euro area services sector accelerated to 56.2 points from 55 in March, registering its highest level in a year, while, on the other hand, the manufacturing PMI worsened its deterioration with a result of 45.8 points, compared to 47.3 the previous month, its worst reading in 35 months. Among the countries analysed, Spain (56.3 points) and Italy (55.3) posted the highest composite PMI readings in April, ahead of Germany's 54.2; Ireland's 53.5 and France's 52.4. The acceleration of the expansion of business activity in the euro zone allowed employment levels to continue increasing in April, reaching their highest levels in one year, while inflationary pressures in the region eased, with a drop in purchase prices at lows of 26 months, although the prices charged increased again, but at the weakest rate in two years.

The scientists analyzed these animals and found behaviors that were previously unknown. The scientists analyzed these animals and found behaviors that were previously unknown. Giraffes have shown great ability and even do basic statistical calculations to choose their favorite food. Giraffes have shown great ability and even do basic statistical calculations to choose their favorite food, a highly developed cognitive function that until now had only been proven in animals with large brains, such as primates. This was verified by a team of scientists who carried out a study with four giraffes at the Barcelona Zoo, where they verified that these animals may have much more outstanding statistical abilities than previously thought. The research was led by scientists from the University of Leipzig, the German Max Plank Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology and the Department of Clinical Psychology and Psychobiology of the University of Barcelona and the conclusions of their work are published today in Scientific Reports. These to do simple statistical "calculations" have so far not been observed in animals with proportionally smaller brains, such as giraffes. The researchers showed the giraffes the possibility of between vegetable sticks held in a clenched fist that were extracted from transparent boxes that contained mostly, but not only, pieces of carrot (their favorite) and zucchini sticks (less preferred). The animals saw which box the food was taken from, but not which vegetable they selected and recommended to them by the researchers. The abilities to do simple statistical "calculations" have not been observed so far in animals with the proportionally smallest brains, such as giraffes. And in most cases they verified that the animals favored the food that had been removed from the box where there were mostly carrots and therefore the chances of obtaining that food were greater. Thus, the scientists suggested that a large brain might not be a prerequisite for such cognitive abilities and that the ability to do statistical interference may be more widespread in the animal kingdom than previously thought. Researcher Álvaro López Caicoya, from the Department of Clinical Psychology and Psychobiology at the University of Barcelona, highlights the relevance of the study for understanding evolution, since more and more things and abilities are known that are not exclusively human. In statements to EFE, López Caicoya explained that until thirty years ago it was thought that this type of statistical reasoning was only typical of adult humans, "but today we know that it is also present in babies a few months old, in primates, in parrots and now even in giraffes". "It is important to realize that most of the things that we think make us special are present in many more animals," stressed the researcher, noting the relevance of this ability for giraffes, since the savannah environment in which they live are characterized by having widely spaced trees and therefore can identify from a distance which trees have better proportions of leaves and flowers. "It is important to realize that most of the things that we think make us special are present in many more animals," said researcher López Caicoya. That way they conserve energy by saving necessary trips to less desirable food sources and focus their efforts on reaching the trees that provided them with the most beneficial nutrients, she explained. In his opinion, it is a fundamental ability in the animal and he does not believe that the fact of living in captivity determines the results, since they are not animals -he specified- that have not been disturbances for that nor do they have much interaction with humans more beyond the studio Caicoya showed that wild giraffes are very elusive towards humans and would never come close to carry out an experiment like this, so the research would have been impossible with animals that were not in captivity, and she was convinced that "the data from giraffes in captivity are the best we'll ever have to assess these kinds of capabilities in these animals."

In 2021, the Paggio Group discontinued its manufacture of the Aprilia Shiver 900 motorcycles, but the fierce spirit of this naked will resurface in a new Chinese assembly of the Cyclone brand, belonging to the colossal Zongshen firm, which claims to produce a million pieces year. This is its latest model called Cyclone RA9, which was developed based on the technology of the Italian Aprilia Shiver 900 and Dorsoduro 900 engines, which are out of the production catalog. THE CYCLONE RA9 WILL ARRIVE IN EUROPE AS GILERA Just a couple of years ago, a prototype of the Cyclone RA9 from the salon was shown at the Chongquing Impernational Motor Expo, where the chassis and the engine were fully Aprilia, but with certain modifications to increase the displacement, as well as new covers. . The market expected the official launch of the product from the end of 2022, but the prototype is still under perfection, although images with some models circulating on the streets of the Asian country circulate on the internet. It is rumored that Zongshen will position this piece in the European market baptized as Gilera, thanks to an agreement with Grupo Paggio, owner of the Italian brand, with the aim of the name helping to promote the motorcycle. One of the doubts is whether this model can reach Europe, under the Euro5 regulations, in terms of pollution issues, which are believed to have caused the discontinuation of the Aprilia 900. NEWS ON THE 'CHINESE APRILIA' Unlike the Aprilia, the RA9 brought the cylinder from 896cc to 987cc. The engine offers a power of 112 CV at 9,500 rpm, with torque values of 98 Nm at 7,500 rpm. THE RA9 features a single-sided swingarm with a hideous cylinder. At the front it has a double disc brake from the manufacturer. This model combines a firm and martial body. A wide 240 rear wheel and sporty seating position give it a modern muscle bike look. Link: https://revistamoto.com/wp_rm/zongshen-el-gigante-chino-de-la-moto-resucitara-las-aprilia-900/

Dreams are one of the most intriguing phenomena that have always generated in human beings, due to their supposed meanings and their premonitory. A viral Twitter thread wanted to review some of the curiosities about the strangest dreams. Unless you belong to an unfortunate minority, it is most likely that you have dreams every night, even if you do not remember them when you wake up. It is even possible that some of the dreams you have had have particularly surprised you, either because of their realism, their spectacularity or their premonitory nature. Dreams are such an intriguing and difficult-to-research phenomenon that human beings have been shelling them for centuries, without much success. But science has managed to reveal some really interesting secrets about dreams, and this tweeter has been in charge of compiling some of them. When we sleep for several hours, they went through different phases, but not in all of them we are dreaming. Our brain only generates dreams for a quarter of the time spent asleep, and if our physical conditions are altered, that time may be greatly reduced. For example, being sick or having some other type of external stimulus can cause our mind to stay in different sleep phases for longer. You've probably heard that all the people we see in our dreams are faces we've seen in reality, even if we don't recognize them, and that's the way it is. Sometimes they can even mix the traits of different people, but they are always based on reality. If you can't imagine it, you can't dream it. Not only do you experience pleasant intimate dreams, you can also feel ecstasy as strong as in reality while dreaming, felt sensations such as touch, taste and pleasure can reach the same level as sensations in the real world. Dreaming of sex is very common, and it has been proven that the sensations that are generated in dreams can be as stimulating as those that are experienced in reality, or even more. Unfortunately, it is much more common for us to dream of situations related to stressful or survival moments, since it is part of its evolutionary function. Dreams expose us to dangerous situations so that we reflect on how we would react to them.

A cursor moves over a Google search engine page on August 28, 2018 in Portland, Oregon. (AP Photo/Don Ryan, File)(Don Ryan / Associated Press) BRASILIA — Brazil's Justice Ministry on Tuesday pushed back against Google stopping what it called a propaganda campaign against a bill aimed at curbing misinformation, or face fines of about $200,000 an hour. The company later disappeared an article that the ministry had described as propaganda, but it was not immediately clear whether Google fully complied with the agency's order. The ministry and Google have not responded to emailed requests for comment. The bill, objected to by big tech companies including Google, would set fines and deadlines for removing disinformation and hate speech from social media and messaging apps, and would force tech companies to file transparency reports. The government of President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva says it is essential to regulate online speech following the recent wave of deadly attacks on schools that authorities say were motivated by hate speech and social media forums. The bill was sent to the lower house on Friday and could be voted on this week. On Sunday, Google posted a message on its home page arguing that the bill "could increase confusion about what is true or false in Brazil" and should be improved. The message redirected to an article written by the search engine's public policy department listing the arguments against the bill. The Brazilian Ministry of Justice accused Google of promoting a covert editorial position and detrimental to the company that promoted content contrary to its position. The agency will also note that Google must clearly state that its position is propaganda and must be transparent about any interference in its search engine to links related to the bill. The agency said the company would be fined 1 million reais an hour, or roughly $200,000, if it failed to comply with the order. Google's message on its home page and the article were removed Tuesday after the order was published. Federal Supreme Court Judge Alexandre de Moraes will also likely ask the heads of Google, Meta, Spotify, and Brasil Paralelo—a far-right news and entertainment platform—to testify before police about why they authorized what could amount to broadcasting misinformation about the bill and abuse of their economic power. De Moraes cited a report from the Internet and Social Media Studies Laboratory of the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ), which argued that these companies publicized and posted ads against the bill "in an opaque manner and bypassing their own conditions of use. Google said in a statement that it was committed to communicating its concerns about the bill "in a public and transparent manner" and denied manually altering search results to favor its position. Brazilian lawmakers had approved a petition last week to speed up the project's approval process in the lower house. Analysts and big tech companies criticized the move, arguing that further discussion was needed. The bill dates back to 2020, when it was approved by the Senate under Lula's predecessor, far-right leader Jair Bolsonaro, but has since undergone substantial modifications and become much broader. If the Chamber of Deputies approves it, the bill will return to the Senate for a final vote. Last week, Telegram was suspended by a judge after the messaging app refused to send information about profiles spreading Nazi speech. A few days later, another decision overturned the suspension.

The champion, who now only has to 'go to Cups', gets another disappointment and succumbs in Donostia against an invigorating rival who is approaching the Champions League led by the enlightened Silva 14 points behind Barça and only 15 in dispute, Real Madrid certified in San Sebastián what was sung: they only have to go to Cups. In the League, a Real with a European fragrance made him resign. With orchestral Silva, a skid by Militão and an excellent maneuver by the electric Barrenetxea sent Madrid to the damp canvas of Anoeta. A flat Madrid, faded by absences, definitely went to the gutter with the expulsion of Carvajal on the hour. One more league disappointment for the madridistas against an expansive Real Sociedad in flight towards the next edition of the European Cup. A team with rennet that does not lack a basket and that has moved freely in the upper zone throughout the championship, even when it had the odd blackout. From the outset, without the shit from Girona, Madrid was planted in Anoeta with another dregs, even though the white consortium lacked Vinicius, Benzema, Camavinga and Modric, all of them very owning. The champion shaved, it was a night for jaws of steel against a life-giving Royal. A musketeer team in which no one gets away. A group, that of Imanol Alguacil, who plays in combustion, trained to encapsulate the opponent in his field and without fuss in his own. He does not lack soloists, but Madrid little by little adjusted the arrests. For example, the one from Nacho to Kubo, unruly at first, then out of the loop until his thanks to Militão at 1-0. On the other shore there were hardly any footprints from Oyarzabal, lowered as a winger, a position for which overflow and spark are required that the Basque has not yet recovered after his tortuous injury. Soccer between the lines is better for Real Sociedad, where Silva's observatory, Merino's strength and Sorloth's bulk prevail. And in that funnel Madrid operated well in the first act, signed Tchouameni with the help of Kroos and Ceballos. Real lacked an offensive oar, limited to Rodrygo, in Vinicius's square, a can for Gorosabel, and Militão's headers. There was Mariano, an emergency resource, lost like a stranger. A dry shot from Tchouameni put Remiro on alert shortly before Zubimendi crashed against the crossbar after a corner kick taken by Kubo. And it was the turn of Courtois, saving with the left foot of a shot from Silva. With the game lively, Oyarzabal claimed a penalty from Militão, which seemed to tie him up. The arbitration squad did not want to know anything. Over time, the match lost some of its grace until the intermission. A lot of quartermaster and little purple. Some and others screwed when trying to channel the game, luck that has long referred to the goalkeepers. It doesn't matter if they don't have Bolshoi feet. Today it is a desecration to throw a ball, no matter how much it chokes the rival. Courtois had problems, and some Remiro, especially with the Anoeta grass as a skating rink. And so Militão's coladura arrived just after the break. The Brazilian, forced by Sorloth, who is not Haaland but has a Norwegian bodywork, slipped and did a pirouette to pass the brown to Courtois. His smeared pass was appreciated by Kubo, rascal and clever. Ancelotti intervened to give Álvaro a reel for the inconsequential Mariano, a tourist in Donosti. By then, Carvajal was already flea-ridden with the referee, a judge too severe to condemn him with the first card for a simple protest and with the red card for a winning round with Aihen Muñoz. An easy trigger collegiate with the cards. A complete upset for Madrid, which remained in the bones. The Royal Society, at the feet of the symphonic Silva, who still plays with the air of a cadet. An enlightened, wise and facundo with the ball. Imanol refreshed the attack with Carlos Fernández and Barrenetxea. The future of the party was for the local closure. Barrenetxea had it with a free kick on the balcony of the area, but Courtois was Courtois. Rattle for his team, Barrenetxea won 2-0 after a beat from Silva. The Basque winger shook off Lucas, Carvajal's replacement, and nailed the second blue and white goal. There was no longer a response from Madrid, to which the League had long seemed Himalayan. Meanwhile, in Donosti it smells like Champions. Link: https://elpais.com/deportes/2023-05-02/la-real-despide-al-madrid.html

Although the trend of economic growth prevails, the dynamism of the trade and services sector has lost some strength, while the rebound in the manufacturing sector is insignificant, said the IMEF in its monthly report. The IMEF Manufacturing and Non-Manufacturing indicators for April suggest that Mexico's economic activity has started the second quarter of the year with a slower pace than that registered during the first quarter. Although the trend of economic growth prevails, the dynamism of the trade and services sector has lost some strength, while the rebound in the manufacturing sector is insignificant, said the IMEF in its monthly report. The IMEF indicators for the first three months of 2023 were consistent with the economic growth indicated by the timely GDP indicator, which showed quarterly growth of 1.1 percent. In fact, the economy recovered its dynamism in this first quarter of 2023 in relation to the end of 2022. In line with the signs of the IMEF Indicators, the services sector was the one that will end with the greatest traction, growing 1.5% quarter over quarter, while industry did so at 0.7 percent. "For now, the economy still maintains a growth trend, although the data for April from the IMEF indicators suggested that with a less dynamic impulse than the first quarter," added the IMEF. On the one hand, the IMEF Manufacturing Indicator for April increased 1.0 point compared to the month of March, standing at 50.6 units. The trend-cycle series remained unchanged (50.5) and the Indicator adjusted by company size increased 1.2 points to settle at 51.7 units. The signal is clear for the IMEF: the manufacturing industry has returned to a zone of expansion, although there are still not enough elements to indicate that growth is robust and persistent. The IMEF Manufacturing indicator has been fluctuating for several months very close to the 50.0 level; that is, without a clear trend regarding the persistence of growth in the sector. For now, the IMEF Manufacturing Indicator began its expansion in the second quarter of 2023. On the other hand, the IMEF Non-Manufacturing Indicator reached 1.3 points, standing at 52.2 units. Despite the drop compared to March, the Indicator continues in the expansion zone, thus accumulating 15 consecutive months in this zone. Similarly, the trend-cycle series and the indicator adjusted by company size fell by 0.2 and 2.7 points, registering 52.7 and 51.8 units, respectively. Thus, the three indicators have remained in expansionary territory for 15, 27 and 20 months, which is consistent with continued growth in the services and trade sectors, and with the results of GDP. “The slowdown in the Non-Manufacturing Indicator suggests that the service sector economy has lost a bit of momentum compared to the strong dynamism of the first quarter, which was reflected in the timely GDP data. However, the dynamism of the sector prevails”, interpreted the IMEF. Link: https://www.eleconomista.com.mx/empresas/Economia-de-Mexico-tiene-impulso-menos-dinamico-IMEF-20230502-0055.html

Phyllobates terribilis, is the most poisonous frog (and for many the living being) in the world | Credit: Wilfried Berns/Wikimedia Commons (CC BY-SA 2.0) Immediately acting and deadly, the poisonous poison dart frog attacks the nervous system. So how do they survive their own nature? Tiny, silent and phosphorescent, they proliferate in the deep thickness of the Amazon jungle. "Just a few milligrams of tetrodotoxin can be fatal," says Po[CENSORED]r Science. And it's true: with a dash of their venom, some poison dart frogs can wipe out crowds in no time. So how do these multicolored animals survive? Here we explain it to you. Also read: What is the difference between a snake, a viper and a snake? A natural defense mechanism First of all, it should be clarified that the venom of poisonous frogs —as well as that of snakes, scorpions and other animals in nature— is a defense mechanism against possible predators. Due to its size and physiology, an amphibian of just a few centimeters could hardly defend itself against the lizards and mammals that prey on it in its natural environment. But the question remains: how come poison dart frogs don't kill themselves upon contact with these lethal toxins? After all, they often secrete it to protect their skin, or live with these substances in their saliva. This is how science journalist Geoffrey Giller explains it: Many of these toxic substances are truly powerful, since they directly impact the nervous system almost immediately. Some poisonous toads have them in their systems naturally. These include the following: tetrodotoxin Epibatidine Bufotoxins Most likely, these species of poison dart frogs have taken an evolutionary path that has helped them become resistant to these deadly neurotoxins. Not only that: there is evidence that they metabolize these substances from their food, so that "they obtain their toxins from certain ants and mites in their diet, they must transport the toxins from the intestine to the skin glands," explains the specialist. Resistance to these toxins still does not convince some scientists. However, the destruction of the habitat of these species and the global climate crisis make it increasingly difficult to know their true nature. Above all, because the specimens disappear —sometimes, even, without our knowing of their existence. Keep reading: What are the 5 most poisonous animals in Mexico and how to identify them?

"The world has been made by the mad for the sane," said Oscar Wilde. In a way we can adapt this famous phrase to motorcycling lovers and those exaggeratedly crazy but interesting and fun creations. Although the tuner scene has changed a lot in the last decade, there was a time in the early 2000s that was all about imagining a bike and creating absolute genius. For example, the Dolmette, a motorcycle that uses twelve chainsaw engines and has scandalous figures: 170 CV. More than a Hayabusa of the time. Five speeds and Harley-Davidson gearbox To put ourselves in context, when we talk about crazy creations, we are referring to real atrocities on two wheels, like that Briton who built a Kawasaki with 4,200 cc and 48 cylinders that we talked about recently. Madness or genius? Ambassador The protagonist of today could well be at its height, the Dolmette. A motorcycle with almost 20 years that we rescued from the YouTube newspaper library to get to know in depth, because a motorcycle with 24 chainsaw engines deserves it, right? His father is Rötger Feldmann, a German cartoonist whose muse was motorcycles and his canvas was a blank piece of paper. Feldmann was the creator of Werner, a po[CENSORED]r German animated character. I imagined strange and bizarre motorcycles; It was ironic with the strict TÜV, the German vehicle inspection. The cartoonist loved motorcycles, but he was not a mechanic, nor a pilot, nor anything related to motorcycles beyond the fact that he liked them. The Dolmette was born on one of his canvases, a motorcycle he built in 2004 using a previous idea he had with another motorcycle, the Red Porsche Killer (a motorcycle with many horses and a Dantesque appearance). Nothing else occurred to him than to put Dolmar chainsaw engines (a German brand), each of them 160 cc and two times. Between all of them they have a combined displacement of 1.9 liters and 170 CV of power. To put ourselves in context, 2004, Suzuki marketed the Hayabusa with a power of 175 CV. Not content with the drawing, Feldmann convinced the company that sold the chainsaws (Dolmar) to build the bike, and they succeeded. They even took care of sponsoring the motorcycle with advertising to cascoporro (as you can see above). This torque monster transferred power from the engines to a Harley-Davidson five-speed gearbox via 12 timing belts. Then each motor has to be started individually... And yes, it's as expected, exactly like a chainsaw: by pulling. Imagine all 12 engines purring at the same time (and the arm of whoever has to start them).

The arrival of a new month is sometimes hopeful, other times comforting, and also reminds of particular and historical situations. Time passes, and in the blink of an eye, the world governed by the Gregorian calendar will receive the month of flowers, spring weather, varied commemorations, and full of curiosities. May is made up of days that represent festivity, joy, but also reactions of the immune system. Find out what is celebrated in the fifth month of the year, and why it is one of the most unique annual periods. WHAT CURIOSITIES DOES THE ARRIVAL OF MAY PRESENT? The arrival of a new month is for some the beginning of job opportunities, the birth of a child, for example, and for others it symbolizes the happiness of having health, prosperity and money. The world recently received the year 2023 with great joy, and today it is time to extend a hand to the fifth month of the year to commemorate valuable anniversaries that were proclaimed in order to sensitize and raise awareness among the po[CENSORED]tion about outstanding aspects of life in society. and environment. Likewise, May annually becomes the 31-day period in which the human body reacts to the spring allergens of the northern hemisphere, and also one of the most Catholic months. We review some of the curiosities and events related to this month that always begins and for more than 100 years, with the celebration that commemorates the Chicago Martyrs: - EPHEMERIS The traditional May Day recalls a tragic episode where the fight for labor rights began, and since 1889 most countries celebrate it through International Workers' Day. Other important events that are part of the fifth month of the year are World Press Freedom Day (May 3), International Nursing Day (May 12), International Family Day (May 15 ), and to close with a flourish World No Tobacco Day (May 31). ALLERGIES During the spring season that began in the northern hemisphere between March 20 and 21, and will end around June, various allergies to the pollen that sprouts from trees and grass tend to manifest, and which ends up causing symptoms such as sneezing, stuffy or runny nose, cough, and itchy, watery eyes. - VIRGIN MARY AND MOTHER'S DAY May is the month consecrated to Catholicism, dedicated to the mother of Christ and converted into a widespread custom, especially during the 19th century. Coincidentally, Mother's Day is commemorated within this month, and celebrated in some countries like Spain, for example, on the first Sunday of May, and others like Peru on the second Sunday of May. - FLOWERS In this annual time, and together with the changes in climate, the days lengthen, the temperatures rise, and the flowers are reborn. The rose is composed of the group of generally thorny and flowering shrubs that generally sprout in the month of May. WHY IS THE FIFTH MONTH OF THE YEAR CALLED MAY? The name of May comes from Roman mythology and its protagonist is Maia, the daughter of Fauno and the wife of Vulcano, and also the mother of Mercury, the messenger of the gods and the god of commerce. Maia arises from the Latin term "maior" which means greater or greater which also gave rise to "magnus" understood as great, extensive, or magnificent because in the ancient Roman calendar, the month of May was the third of the year, after March and April, and was considered the most important month for agricultural activities and preparation for the start of the summer season. With the reform of the Julian calendar in 46 BC, May became the fifth month of the year and was assigned 31 days.

(AP Photo/Ohad Zwigenberg)(Ohad Zwigenberg / Associated Press) WASHINGTON — US House Speaker Kevin McCarthy said Monday that Russia must withdraw from Ukraine, lashed out at the Russian “killing of children” and distanced himself from some of his fellow Party members. Republican who oppose more US aid to Ukraine to prevent Russian invasion. Visiting Israel, marking his first foreign trip as House speaker, McCarthy strongly expressed his support for Ukraine and rejected suggestions that he would not support sending military and financial aid to Kiev. During a press conference, he also expressed his position on other issues in his country, including his demand to negotiate the debt limit with President Joe Biden. “Vote to send aid to Ukraine. I support sending aid to Ukraine," McCarthy said, responding to a question from a Russian reporter. "I don't support what your country has done to Ukraine, and I don't support killing the children either," McCarthy told the Russian journalist, adding: "They must withdraw." “We will continue to support it, because the rest of the world sees it for what it is,” he said. McCarthy arrived in Jerusalem leading a bipartisan delegation of US lawmakers on his first trip abroad as the new Speaker of the US House of Representatives and the first to address the Knesset (Israeli Parliament) in 25 years. Domestic politics were present on his trip abroad, and the Republican said he has not received a response from President Biden on the negotiations around the US debt limit, as the deadlines to act and avoid big problems approach. economic. "The president hasn't spoken to me," McCarthy said, noting that he feels "a bit like Netanyahu," referring to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who has not received a call from the US president.

As is known, Cuca resigned from the Brazilian team after being accused of sexual abuse. The Corinthians announced this Monday the former Brazilian coach and former Real Madrid coach, Vanderlei Luxemburgo, as the new coach of the first team, after the resignation of Alexi Stival 'Cuca' shortly after taking office due to an old case of sexual abuse. Luxemburgo, 70 years old, has signed a contract with the São Paulo team until "December 31, 2023", that is, until the end of this season, according to the club in a note. Luxembourg is scheduled to debut this Tuesday at the Neo Química Arena in Sao Paulo, in the match against Ecuadorian Independiente del Valle, for the third day of group E of the Copa Libertadores. It is the third time that Luxemburgo has been in charge of the albinegro team. The first time he took charge of Corinthians was in 1998, the year in which he won the Brazilian Championship. He returned in 2001 to lift the Campeonato Paulista, the most important regional tournament in the state of Sao Paulo. In total, he has led the 'People's Team' in 134 games, with a record of 62 wins, 33 draws and 39 losses, according to Corinthians' calculations. Luxemburgo will replace Cuca, who was forced to resign after strong pressure from home fans over an old case of sexual abuse he faced while playing for the Gremio. In the late 1980s, he and three other of his companions were detained for a month in Switzerland on charges of having sex with a 13-year-old girl. After paying a bond, they were provisionally released and returned to Brazil. Cuca, who always denied his participation, was sentenced to 15 months in prison, although he never served his sentence, which has already expired. But the pressure was enormous and Cuca was forced to retire after barely a week of work. Corinthians has curdled a turbulent and very irregular start to the season that already claimed as its first victim, at the end of April, the young coach Fernando Lázaro, fired after the bad game and the discreet results of the team.

Eight articles of the National Development Plan would touch the pocket of Colombians. The plenary session of the Senate of the Republic will hold the second debate on the Development Plan (PND) of the government of Gustavo Petro on May 2. Within this, there are eight articles that would touch the already beaten pocket of Colombians, according to an analysis made by Portafolio. They are the following: If you are the owner of a new car, the Development Plan may affect you because in the presentation for the second debate there is an article that changes the times of the first technical-mechanical review, since it clarifies that this mandatory process is no longer It does not have to be done at six years old, as is established, but at five. 2. Automatic property update: If you are the owner of a property and it has not been updated for more than five years, you should know that the PND has an article that allows massive cadastral updating. This, with the aim of improving land planning issues, in addition to correcting concerns regarding the tax burden, since people would begin to pay more based on what they declare. 3. Citizen Income: Since the PND came into force, the Citizen Income program would be created, which has already taken the first steps hand in hand with Social Prosperity. This seeks to provide economic benefits to the most disadvantaged families in the country, depending, of course, on factors such as the conformation of the household and its area of residence. By way of transition, the director of Social Prosperity, Cielo Rusinque Urrego, announced that the first payment would be made on April 30. The idea of the program benefits some 3.3 million households in situations of poverty, extreme poverty and vulnerability. In this way, the entity would allocate close to seven billion pesos. 4. Zero Hunger: The PND also proposes a new system of transfers of resources in kind in order to have a guarantee of respect for the human right to food of the po[CENSORED]tion living in poverty and extreme poverty, with a rights-based approach and with the participation of the economies. po[CENSORED]r and community, peasant and family members. 5. Reduction of health contribution for pensioners: Retired people in the country who make contributions of between two and three minimum wages, that is, $3.3 and $3.4 million by 2023, will have their monthly health contribution discounted. This would decrease from 12% to 10%. 6. Energy subsidies: The PND establishes that a reallocation will be made to electrical energy subsidies in order to guarantee that the essential level of consumption of users in vulnerable conditions of strata one and two is covered. Likewise, the article establishes that the subject will be subject to the use of smart meters, to the extent that said scheme is implemented, as well as the implementation of subsidy targeting methodologies that, by reinforcing current inclusion errors , can have the resources required for the rate of the measure. 7. Interest on educational loans: Through a new article included for debate in plenary sessions, the PND authorizes Icetex (Colombian Institute for Educational Credit and Technical Studies Abroad) to make partial compensation for the Consumer Price Index (CPI) that makes up the rate of interest on education loans. This measure seeks to benefit Icetex users by having lines of credit with a subsidized rate and greater socioeconomic vulnerability. 8. Creation and permanence of formal employment: With the aim of giving continuity to the measures aimed at the promotion, generation and protection of formal employment, the PND establishes an incentive for the generation of new employment, which will be extended to users who engage workers with disabilities. This may be extended until August 2026. The Government will evaluate the importance of its continuity, according to the results of the technical studies carried out by the sectoral public entities and may redesign the access and permanence requirements.

The human being usually fears, habitually, to cross the path of these coelenterates. We live on a vast planet, full of forests, seas, oceans and human constructions. If we focus on the liquid element, we may be entering some of the most unexplored terrain on Earth, where some of the most intelligent animal species are found and, of course, where we also have to fear the existence of some of the most intelligent animals. poisonous on the planet. It is not strange to discover new specimens every year, but the one that stars in this news is really special. The sea hides animals that manage to surprise us Recently, thanks to the publication collected in the journal Zoological Studies, we have discovered an investigation carried out by scientists from the Hong Kong Baptist University in which they reveal the discovery of a new species of jellyfish, which belongs to the family of box jellyfish, more known as 'sea wasps'. The specimen, scientifically named Tripedalia maipoensis, has been found in the Mai Po Nature Reserve, located in Hong Kong, the first time there is evidence of a discovery of this marine invertebrate on Chinese soil. The researchers, a collaboration with colleagues from the University of Manchester, WWF Hong Kong and Ocean Park Hong Kong between 2020 and 2022, showed samples from a pond in the reserve, in which they observed unknown creatures. Qiu Jianwen, a professor at Hong Kong Baptist University, has stated in a post on the website of the educational entity that: We named the new species Tripedalia maipoensis to reflect its location. Although it is now known as Mai Po, he believes that this species is also distributed in addictive waters to the Pearl River Delta, as it is connected via a narrow estuary. The discovery of this animal puts us on notice of a species of jellyfish that is among the smallest, but as the po[CENSORED]r saying dictates, also one of the most poisonous. In addition, as in members of the same species, Tripedalia maipoensis has 24 eyes, which are distributed in four groups of 6 eyes, located in an area called ropalia, which is a sensory structure on the edge of its upper part, the well-known commonly as 'umbrella'. Finally, Professor Qiu Jianwen states that: Box jellyfish are a small group of cnidarians, with only 49 species reported globally. They are poorly known in Chinese marine waters. Our discovery of Tripedalia maipoensis in Mai Po, a relatively well-studied area of Hong Kong, underscores the rich diversity of marine life in Hong Kong, and even across China.

v3 text and effects

The Arroba, first uses and appearances Within the symbology that is used daily in computing, we find a multitude of symbols in addition to conventional letters and numbers. But we can say that one of the most used is the @ symbol, mainly related to sending emails. But this symbol is also used in many other functions, related to computing or not. So let's see Origin and Curiosities of this Symbol, the At sign. The Arroba or also known by its @ symbol, does not have its origin in computing, it has been known that this symbol was already used centuries ago. The Arroba has its origin from the Arabic ar-rub' which means a quarter. In English it is read at which also means next to, hence it appeared on many occasions in the world of computing. It is said that the first appearance of the @ as a symbol is in the year 1448, in a wheat entry that is related to units of measurement. efficacy in the 15th century is very difficult to relate adequately, but its writing in a cereal entry and thanks to later knowledge, its use is related to measurement. Also in the 16th century, reference is made to an @ of wine, referring to the measure of 1/13 of a barrel. As a measure of weight, an arroba is equivalent to a quarter of a quintal (100 Castilian pounds or approximately 46 kilos). And one arroba @, which is one fifth, is 11.5 kg, although it was used with different measurements depending on the location in Spain. He is currently wishing to install the metric system that we continue to use today. After a bit of boring history, let's look at his beginnings in computing. During the beginning and the middle of the last century, this symbol began to be used in many technical mathematics and engineering books as a representation of the area, the @ was also obtained as conditions to verify the validity of the data described in books and scientific publications. But normally we can associate the at sign with email, although it has other uses within computing. If it is true that its origin in computing is in email, when the first email system was implemented in 1971. The programmer looked for a way to separate the name to differentiate the person who sent this email. For this I wanted to use a symbol present in most keyboards, but differentiated from any other symbol that can be confused with a proper name, whether it be for people or servers. Until then the @ was present on keyboards, but it was hardly useful. So Ray Tomlinson took out the at sign to send the first email, differentiating the server name: tomlinson@bbn-tenexa. From then on, and up to the present time, the at sign has served us for this same use, the purpose of which is to differentiate the name of the user who sends the email from the email server, all separated by an @, info@geeknetic .is But in addition to email, it also has many other uses within computing. The @ is used, for example, to recognize Twitter users. If you want to write to Geeknetic on Twitter you will have to do it with an @ in front, @Geeknetic. Although in the social network it is not necessary to use it for user searches, in the results of usernames it will always add this symbol. We also do this to refer to Twitter users when we write in other places like forums or chats. This use has also spread to other social networks, where user names also start with @, for example Instagram. But beyond social networks, it is also used in other aspects of computing, in programming languages such as BASIC or Clipper, although they are currently not widely used. Also used in C# to mark literal strings, or in the Bash scripting language as a wildcard. It also became fashionable to write the @ to refer to both sexes a few years ago. A mixture of the use of technologies and the inclusion of both genders in everyday language resulted in L@s Usuari@s to refer to Los Usuarios and Las Usuarias. It has to be read this way, since @ does not have a pronunciation like any other word in the alphabet. But many uses and only one way to write it? For nothing. We tell you how to write the at sign in a simple way How to write the at sign Not only is there the possibility of typing the at sign as we all know in Windows, with the Alt Gr key and pressing the 2. There is a possibility that you will ever have to type it on a Mac or a computer with the Linux operating system. It may also be hidden in the virtual keyboards of electronic devices, although due to its great use it is often in plain sight. But we review how to write this at sign, quickly and easily, in different situations. To write the at @ in Windows you only have to press simultaneously, as you already know, the Alt Gr keys and the number 2. But this number 2 cannot be the numeric keypad, but it must be the 2 that is located right above the W key. You'll recognize it because it usually also has an @ painted on the bottom of the key. But imagine this number 2 doesn't work on your keyboard, what can we do? You can also write the at sign with ASCII numbering. This is something international, since regardless of the region or type of keyboard used, the ASCII code for the At sign is always the same, 64. In this way we can also write the @ by holding down the ALT key and marking 64 on the numpad, releasing the ALT key will bring up our @. If you are on a keyboard with another layout you can use this method to write it using the ASCII code. You can also use, depending on the most common, AltGR+Q in Latin America, Shift(Shift)+2 in the United States or Shift+' on English keyboards. If you're on a Mac, all you have to do is replace the AltGr key (which doesn't exist on a Mac) with the Option or Command key. For Linux there is no special way, since it is written as in Windows and depending on the keyboard layout used. If all this fails you, you can resort to the usual copy and paste of a lifetime, locate a text where the @ is, copy and paste where you want to use it. You can use this guide or search Google for the Arroba for which this symbol appeared. Link: https://www.geeknetic.es/Guia/2585/Arroba-Origen-y-Curiosidades-de-este-Simbolo.html

FILE - This photo released by the European Space Agency shows an Ariane 5 rocket in Kourou, French Guyana, Wednesday, April 12, 2023. (Stephane Corvaja/ESA via AP)(Stephane Corvaja / Associated Press) CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) — A crucial antenna is stuck on a Jupiter-bound spacecraft launched two weeks ago, the European Space Agency reported Friday. Juice's 52-foot (16-meter) radar antenna extended only a third of its length after liftoff, according to the space agency. Engineers suspect that a small pin may be sticking out. Flight controllers in Germany plan to start the spacecraft's engine in the hope that the pin will release. They noted that if that maneuver doesn't work, they have plenty of time to solve the problem. Juice, short for Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer, won't reach the giant planet until 2031. To get there, he'll travel a roundabout path that includes gravity-assisted flybys of Earth, our Moon, and Venus. The radar antenna is needed to peer beneath the icy crust of three Jupiter moons believed to harbor subterranean oceans and possibly life, one of the main goals of this nearly $1.8 billion mission. Their targets are Callisto, Europa, and Ganymede, the largest moon in the solar system. According to the space agency, everything else is going well with the ship, the size of a small bus. A radio antenna, solar panels, and a 10.6-meter (35-foot) arm have been successfully deployed to measure Jupiter's magnetic field.

The Government maintains that the Spanish economy will grow 2.1% this year, a forecast higher than those published by private analysts, public entities and international organizations that place growth for Spain in 2023 below 2%. This is stated in the macroeconomic table included in the update of the stability program sent this Friday to Brussels, with which the Government estimates that it will be able to lower the public deficit next year to 3% of GDP, the year in which it estimates that the economy will grow 2.4% and the unemployment rate will close at 10.9%. According to the note sent by the Ministries of Economic Affairs and Finance, the macro chart has been endorsed by the Independent Authority for Fiscal Responsibility (AIReF), although this institution expects economic progress to remain at 1.6% this anus. The Government also maintains that the unemployment rate will close this year at 12.2% and that it will continue to decline in the coming years until it remains below 10% in 2026, a period (2023-2026) in which Spain will create 1.1 million jobs. According to the document, the measures adopted to curb the increase in energy prices caused by Russia's war in Ukraine will facilitate the gradual return of inflation to its medium-term level. In this context of price rise containment, the new macroeconomic framework forecasts that domestic demand will be the main driver of growth this year, especially household consumption, with an estimated growth forecast of 2.1% sustained mainly for the good evolution of employment. In addition, the moderation of inflation will make it possible to improve business competitiveness, which will be reflected in the gain in market share of exports. The foreign sector will maintain a slightly positive contribution to growth during the forecast period, with exports advancing 1.5% this year and 2.5% in 2024. Likewise, the debt will obtain its reduction path after the decrease of five points last year, to absorb the impact of the pandemic and be below 110% of GDP in 2024, one year ahead of schedule. MORE TAX MARGIN FOR THE AUTONOMOUS COMMUNITIES The autonomous communities maintain a deficit target of 0.3% of GDP in 2023, within the 3.9% forecast for the administrations as a whole, but they are given a greater fiscal margin for 2024, since compared to the surplus of 0 .2% forecast in the previous stability programme, now a budget balance target of 0% is indicated, which means two tenths of a margin. Local entities will return to budget balance in 2023 after having registered a slight short-term deficit in 2022 due to technical reasons when calculating the State compensation for the negative liquidation of 2020. In this way, next year the objective of local corporations of 0%, compared to the surplus of 0.2%, will be foreseen in the previous path, with two tenths of a margin also.

The fauna has suffered greatly over the years. Currently, different animals are in danger of extinction. Getting a species to stop being so is complicated because different actions and resources have to be implemented. Some of them involve the punishment of illegal hunting, species trafficking, the fight against climate change, etc. Currently, human action on the planet is contributing to what scientists have called the Sixth Great Extinction, since more than 300 species of vertebrates have disappeared since the year 1500. But really, how many animals are in danger of extinction? What are the species at risk? How many animals are in danger of extinction? The latest data from the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) estimate that approximately 5,200 animal species are currently in danger of extinction. By classes, these are the ones that would be about to disappear: Reptiles: 20% Pieces: 34% Average: 11% Amphibians and mammals: 25% endangered animals Iberian lynx The Iberian lynx lives in forests and is settled in two specific areas: Sierra Morena and Doñana. In addition, a program has been underway for some time to reintroduce the spice in areas where they have been previously, for example, Castilla-La Mancha or Extremadura, among others. Some of the threats of these animals are, above all, being run over. It is estimated that since 2000 57 lynx have died, 24 of them were run over. It is also due to illegal hunting, traps or poisoning. grizzly In Spain the situation of the brown bear is critical. It is estimated that there may be more than 200,000 specimens in the world. However, in the Peninsula, which inhabited especially in the Pyrenees and the Cantabrian Mountains, they have been disappearing due to deforestation, ecosystem changes or hunting. One of the reasons why they are still present in the Pyrenees is because several Slovenian bears were introduced and managed to reproduce. black stork In Spain, the black stork was formerly a hunting species. However, by decree he was protected. The po[CENSORED]tion of these birds has been decreasing and increasing in several areas despite the fact that conservation plans have been carried out in communities such as Castilla-La Mancha and Castilla y León. white imperial eagle The white imperial eagle only has a po[CENSORED]tion of 800 specimens. In the country, its habitat develops above all in Madrid, Andalusia and Castilla-La Mancha. Among the reasons that have led them to begin to disappear have been the lack of food or power lines. Osprey The bearded vulture is an animal whose food source is mainly the bones obtained from wild animals and cattle. This species can be seen in the Cantabrian mountain range due to the reintroduction of several specimens from the Pyrenees. The threat of his disappearance has been poisoning.

Don Garber, commissioner of Major League Soccer, admitted that he worked hard for Rosario to reach the North American league Aurelien Morissard / LaPresse In the midst of the rumors of the departure of Leo Messi from PSG, from Major League Soccer they do not lose hope. Don Garber, MLS commissioner, dreams of having the Rosario player in his country's competition and admits to working hard with Inter Miami to achieve the goal. The MLS dreams with Leo Messi Leo Messi's next contract with Paris Saint Germain will end on June 30 and will have the option to extend for another year. However, the strongest rumors speculate with a departure from the club and even a return to Barcelona. Leo Messi was in Barcelona MD Archive Given this scenario, the theory that the Rosario can play in Major League Soccer seems distant, but from the leadership of that league they do not lose hope. Don Garber, MLS commissioner, made public his desire to have the world champion in Qatar 2022. "I think of him as someone who crosses so many barriers that he can be greater than any athlete in any sport that has played here in the United States," he told AP Sports. The context seems adverse because, regardless of returning to Barcelona or not, Leo's intention would continue in the elite of European football. Garber expanded his position in an interview with CBS Sports: “I can tell you that we would love him in Major League Soccer. There is no league that would not like to have Lionel Messi in their league”. Leo Messi: which MLS club could he play for? Don Garber acknowledged that the first steps were taken by Inter Miami, owned by David Beckham, who has already made public his desire to count on Rosario. “We will work very hard with Miami, which is the team that hopes to sign him. We have been quite effective in finding smart ways to sign players for our clubs in the right market”, confessed the commissioner. Beckham visited Messi in Paris David Beckham's visit this Thursday to the PSG facilities during the first team practice aroused curiosity, but much more did the photo that the former English soccer player took with Lionel Messi, who is about to be released from action and grow the speculation about the future of his career. The world champion was in Barcelona a few days ago and took advantage of his return to Spain to meet up with old acquaintances, such as Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba, with whom they shared dinner after quite some time. In turn, there was also speculation about a meeting with Joan Laporta that both the club and Leo's entourage denied. In this sense, Barcelona wants to sign Messi as a free agent for different reasons: sentimental, after his sad departure in 2021; sports, since he remains in great shape and has just won the World Cup; and the economic, due to everything that would generate linking the image of the club and that of the Argentine star again.
