Caracas, Nov 18 (EFE) .- The head of the European Union Electoral Observation Mission (EOM-EU) in Venezuela, the Portuguese MEP Isabel Santos, met this Thursday with the opposition leader Juan Guaidó to discuss the political situation of the Caribbean country. "Meetings of the Head of the EU-EOM Venezuela 2021, Isabel Santos, with some of the country's main political actors. In them, they held dialogues on the country's political situation," published the EU-EOM on its Twitter account. , where he shared images of the meeting. Santos held a meeting with the Venezuelan opposition María Corina Machado, who has openly rejected the participation of the opposition in the regional and local elections to be held on Sunday in Venezuela. In mid-September, Machado assured that the technical, political or logistical conditions for the deployment of an electoral observation mission are not in place in Venezuela. However, the bulk of the anti-Chavista bloc, including the sector led by Juan Guaidó, will attend these elections for the first time since 2017, after requesting abstention in the 2018 presidential elections and the 2020 parliamentary elections, where the ruling party obtained 92% of the deputies in contention. Guaidó has stated on several occasions that the solution to the crisis that Venezuela is experiencing does not come with regional and local elections, but with presidential elections that correspond in 2024. Venezuela holds regional and local elections on Sunday in which 3,082 positions will be elected in total, distributed in 23 governors, 335 mayors, 253 legislators to the Legislative Councils and 2,471 councilors.

The Senate approved with the vote against Vox and the abstention of the PP the law that will cause dogs or cats to be treated as "sentient beings" in order to protect their well-being The Spanish Parliament took this Wednesday the first step for animals to stop being considered real property or things and to recognize their nature as living beings endowed with sensitivity, that is, "sentient beings", in order to protect their well-being. With this objective, the Senate gave the green light this Wednesday to a bill of the PSOE and United We Can - the political forces that make up the current Government - to analyze the modification of the Civil Code, the Mortgage Law and the Civil Procedure Law on the regime legal of the animals so that they stop being objects. After its approval in the Senate by 153 votes in favor, 3 against and 98 abstentions, now this initiative will continue its processing in the Congress of Deputies for its final ratification and its subsequent entry into force, in order to respond to situations such as divorces and separations of couples who, after their breakup, want to continue sharing their life with their pet. In this case, the protection of the animal will be guaranteed against the suffering of taking it away from its home and from its shared life until that moment, dividing the times and burdens of pets in family ruptures, whether they are marriages or common-law couples. If the parties do not agree on this, a judge will decide. Although all the political forces with representation in the Spanish Senate supported the initiative except Vox, which voted against, and the PP, which abstained, the debate prior to the vote revealed differences of opinion on this issue. While for the socialists the proposal supposes "a necessary change and demanded by the Spanish society", senators of the PP criticized that animals are considered "sentient beings", since that term makes them "objects of rights" and even places them in a position equal to or superior to people. Conservatives warned that the regulations could give rise to such paradoxical situations as that, in the event of divorce or separation, the visitation or alimony of the minors "would be suspended" as there is no agreement of the parents regarding the future of a dog, a cat "or of the goldfish". From the ranks of Vox it is said that it is a law that "makes waters" and that, in addition, it can destroy employment, for example in the sector of the sale of animals in pet stores. In addition to cases of separation or divorce, the Socialists emphasized that with this law "painful situations such as that, on the occasion of a traffic accident, animals have the same consideration as a suitcase and there is no obligation to attend to them will be avoided. . In addition, we will avoid that they can be seized ”. For its part, the PP indicates that the text of the Bill suffers from an "aberrant" legal error, when it intends to modify the Civil Code by introducing a concept of 'public law' such as establishing measures to withdraw custody of the animal in the event of gender violence. In parallel and in order to comply with the commitment acquired after the ratification of the European Convention on the Protection of Companion Animals, the Spanish Government has launched a campaign for responsible ownership and has drawn up a guide on the conditions of animal welfare for the road transport of dogs and cats in Spain.

Honda continues to update its range of motorcycles for 2022. This time it was the turn of two models with very different characteristics. We talk about the Honda Gold Wing and the Honda CMX Rebel, two different concepts of understanding motorcycling, which now release new colors. The new shades of both will produce presence in the streets with colors as bright as green, brown, white or blue. And it is that both its equipment and its engines have been renewed recently so the Japanese have preferred to put all the meat on the grill with its visual appearance. Honda Gold Wing and CMX Rebel: shades that do not go unnoticed That brands are working towards the new year is more than evident. Every week we have been telling you a new presentation. The latest have been the Ducati Streetfighter V2 or the Yamaha TMAX itself. And it is that with little more than a month left to face 2022, brands do not want to stop giving the final touches to their ranges to be more up to date than ever. Nor should we forget that at the end of this month we have the international motorcycle fair in Milan known to all as the EICMA. An event in which a good part of these novelties will meet and even the surprise arrival of some other that we did not expect. In the face of all this, Honda has decided to update several of its models with new shades that provide an extra that help them get off the new year on the right foot. And for this, he has decided to start with the Honda CMX500 Rebel, the best-selling custom motorcycle of the year in Europe that is also valid for the A2 license. And it is that since its introduction in 2017, its cheeky look, its slim dimensions, its low seat and its 47 hp twin-cylinder engine, have attracted thousands of customers throughout Europe. For this reason, for 2022, it will debut a new Organic Pearl Green color that is in the list of existing design options. But the news were not going to stay only in the "small". Its older sister, the Honda CMX1100 Rebel, has also received an update for the second sales season, with the addition of Pearl Stallion Brown to its color palette. A tonality that joins Gunmetal Black Metallic in the range. On the other hand we have one of the most classic and veteran models of the Japanese range. It is the Honda Gold Wing, a motorcycle that since its introduction in 1975, has become the flagship of tourism to travel long distances and a reference in engineering. For 2022, both the Honda GL1800 Gold Wing and GL1800 Gold Wing Tour with its horizontal six-cylinder, 1,833 cc, 126 hp engine, have received striking new color updates. The Tour version, which includes the DCT and the Airbag as standard, introduces two new configurations to its color range. A first, called Blue Glint Wave Metallic, and a second called White Pearl Glare; which will join the existing Gunmetal Black Metallic color. On the other hand, the GL1800 Gold Wing DCT will be available with the new Matte Jeans Blue Metallic. These changes, along with the rest of the novelties that have been included in the different Honda ranges, we hope to see them at the next EICMA in Milan that takes place the last weekend of November.

Estimates exceeded expectations regarding economic growth, achieved after almost two years of restrictions due to the coronavirus pandemic. BOGOTÁ - The Colombian economy expanded by 13.2% in the third quarter, compared to the same period last year, a figure higher than expected by the market that shows an accelerated recovery of the country's productive activity after the impact of the pandemic of the COVID-19, the Government reported on Tuesday. According to the median of a recent Reuters poll, the market expected a year-on-year growth in Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of 12% between July and September. By economic activities, the largest expansions in the third quarter occurred in commerce with 33.8%; in artistic and entertainment activities with 32%; in manufacturing industries with 18.8% and in the information and communications sector with 13.2%. In addition, much of the variation in the third quarter was explained by a lower comparison base compared to the same period of the previous year, when the economy contracted by 8.4% during the worst of the crisis caused by lockdowns and quarantines for counteract the spread of COVID-19. In quarterly terms, GDP between July and September expanded by 5.7%, compared to the period between April and June. Meanwhile, between January and September, GDP accumulated growth of 10.3%, compared to a contraction of 8.1% in the same period of 2020. The greater dynamism of the economy led the Central Bank to start an upward cycle in its reference interest rate in September with an initial increase of 25 basis points, which in October accelerated to 50 basis points to a current 2.50% for try to cool the biggest inflationary pressures. The Central Bank's technical team last month revised its growth projection for Latin America's fourth largest economy for this year to 9.8%, from a previous 8.6%.

Dogs and cats suffer from the same disease called SDCS and produce signs similar to those of Alzheimer's in humans. Advances in science When it comes to Alzheimer's treatments, it is necessary to be very cautious. Especially in human beings in whom, as this neurodegenerative disease has no cure, any advance is received with great expectation. It should be noted that especially the dog, but also the cat, suffer a similar pathology that is defined as senile cognitive dysfunction syndrome. It manifests itself with absences, inadequate elimination (the dog urinates and / or defecates where it should not suddenly), alters its rhythms of sleep and wakefulness and ostensibly changes its character. The natural deterioration of many parts of the body is accompanied by the brain with its particular decline manifested by forgetfulness that in the dog is reflected by staring at a door for not remembering where it opens, for example. It is also common for dogs to whine at night or remain static in the corner of a large room as disoriented or dumbfounded. A drug used for pathologies as diverse as acne or psoriasis has been shown in mice that it can counteract brain damage and that it can even improve cognition (iStock) In the dog, there are some drugs that help to cope and veterinarians specialized in old age know how to deal with these pathological circumstances with a certain margin of success. What is striking about recent research is the case of two old drugs: gemfibrosil, used to reduce circulating cholesterol, and retinoic acid, used for pathologies as diverse as acne or psoriasis, have been shown in mice to counteract brain damage and They can even improve cognition. Treatment with both drugs in combination applied to animals has shown some potential success and some promising results. Both drugs have the uncanny ability to target brain cells, which look like stars intimately involved in the process that progressively and insidiously destroys the brain. These cells, called astrocytes, are responsible for the accumulation of plaque that damages neurons, in this disease of humans, dogs and cats (iStock) These cells, called astrocytes, have been found to be responsible for the accumulation of plaque that damages neurons in this disease of humans, dogs and cats. It has also been found that when both drugs are used in combination, they force astrocytes to reverse their destructiveness and reduce the formation and deposition of these plaques in the brain, improving cognitive function. The results suggested that, perhaps in the not too distant future, these drugs can be reused to "persuade" those cells to play a beneficial role, serving as plaque "cleaning machines" by removing their build-up and preventing Alzheimer's from destroying the brain .

A year ago he broke eleven FIM records (including the top speed) and now they may fall short after the very important improvements he has received About a year ago we told you how Max Biaggi, riding the electric Voxan Wattman, broke different speed records. Records that may fall short very soon ... By then, the electric supermoto managed to overcome nothing less than the 400 km / h barrier and score its name in up to eleven records of the International Motorcycling Federation (FIM). But far from settling, Voxan engineers have continued to advance ... and aspire to more. Lighter and more powerful Now, the specialist brand in electric motorcycles owned by Venturi wants to go even further, thanks to the significant improvements they have received and which even allow a category change. The new Wattman will leave the category of more than 300 kilos to be placed in the immediately lower one thanks to the reduction of weight that Saft has achieved for its batteries of the very high power. But the improvements go further: there is also more power in its engine, which has a racing origin ... in motorsport. Because the machine that moves it is neither more nor less than the propellant of the Mercedes-EQ team's Formula E single-seaters (it goes from 270 kW to 320, that is, from 362 to 429 hp). Its design and proportions are also different. To take on the best performance, its wheelbase has been lengthened. In addition, Michelin has developed specific themes for this mount (inspired by those of MotoGP) with such special performance needs. The new Voxan Wattman will be ready in the coming months and the brand will already announce that in the first half of 2022 it will set new records, again with Max Biaggi as the star driver.

According to preliminary data released by the Japanese government, the drop in GDP in the period from July to September is explained by a decline in non-residential investments by private companies. The Japanese economy contracted 0.8% in the third quarter of the year, more than market expectations, due to a Covid-19 outbreak that slowed domestic demand, according to preliminary data released Monday by the government. The contraction exceeded the forecast for a 0.2% drop, and reflected the sharp decline in consumption during a state of emergency imposed during the summer by a wave of Covid-19 infections. The decline in Japan's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in the period from July to September is also explained by a decline in non-residential investments by private companies, according to official data. Japanese industry suffered during the period from global shortages of semiconductors and other components, which drove the country's exports down 2.1%, the first drop in more than a year. The new Japanese Prime Minister, Fumio Kishida, has said that economic recovery is one of his priorities.

SAN DIEGO, California - The San Diego County Animal Services department, Animal Services, launched a campaign that aims to find a home for the felines that are classifying as working cats, those that act less like companion animals and more as business partners. These working cats are in charge of rodent control, living inside buildings, barns and commercial premises, working to get rid of pests. Kelly Campbell, director of the Animal Services, said the county has stopped euthanizing animals it places for adoption. That includes cats that are rescued from hoarding situations, that were previously in places where they didn't socialize properly, or those that might be shy around people. Some of the cats the county rescues have never had a human bond and cannot learn to socialize to live well at home. He added that while many of these types of cats rescued by the Animal Service are not the best candidates for adoption into a home or apartment, they are perfectly suited for the job. These working cats can start a new life as pest control agents, ready and able to keep the invasive rodent po[CENSORED]tion low in larger spaces. Animal Service staff members say that working cats often thrive in pairs and find their comfort zone in close quarters such as barns, warehouses, churches and factories. They tend to stay out of sight while they have a safe space to go to.

Workers, workers and government representatives had the first analysis meeting. In 2021 there was no salary increase. The first session of the National Council of Work and Salaries (CNTS) to define the unified basic salary (SBU) that will govern in November 2022 took place on 9 December. In this meeting the proposals of employers and workers were not discussed, but the economic and labor indicators of the country were known and analyzed, which will serve as support for the debate. The CNTS is made up of workers' union leaders, as well as delegates from business unions, and is chaired by the Minister of Labor, Patricio Donoso. Also participating in the first meeting were Eduardo Carrillo, representative of the Central Bank of Ecuador (BCE); Roberto Castillo, director of the National Institute of Statistics and Censuses (INEC); and Daniel Falconí, undersecretary of the Ministry of Economy and Finance (MEF). Carrillo presented the macroeconomic assumptions, according to which it is estimated that in 2021 the growth of the Ecuadorian economy will be 3.02%, while for 2022 it is projected 2.85%. Although the indicators are positive, the representative of the ECB clarified that the prepandemic levels have not yet been reached. The INEC director mentioned that there is a downward trend in terms of unemployment, which last September stood at 4.9% nationwide. While adequate employment had an increase of 275,000 new jobs, between May and September of this year. Regarding the consumer price indexes (inflation), Castillo explained that the monthly inflation rate in September was 0.02%, and in October it was 0.21%; while the annual inflation rate in October was 1.47% and it is estimated that it will not exceed 1.8% at the end of the year. In that sense, Falconí added that by 2022 the average annual inflation is projected to be 1.28%. The Work Council will meet again next week. At that time the official positions of workers and employers will be known. In October, the representatives of the unions that make up the Council told EL UNIVERSO that they will request an increase, since there was no increase for 2021, leaving the remuneration at $ 400. Other reasons for the proposal are the loss of purchasing power of the workers , as a result of the crisis due to the pandemic, and the campaign offer of President Guillermo Lasso to raise the SBU to $ 500 during his four years in office. For their part, the businessmen who are in the CNTS mentioned to this newspaper that the conditions do not exist to justify an increase, since the economic recovery is still slow and there are external factors - such as the international crisis of containers - that have made the prices more expensive. imports for production and consumption. According to the Labor Code, if employers and workers do not reach an agreement to establish the amount of the basic salary, the definition will remain in the hands of the Ministry of Labor, for which it must be based on the projection of annual inflation for next year . Although the commitment of the President of the Republic remains, so far there is no official statement on how much the salary should grow in 2022.

The Government is processing a bill to stop dogs from being things. I see the news with a sound in the background: the barking of my neighbor's dogs, hunting dogs condemned to live in two square meters every day of the year, except those Sundays when they are taken to hunt, days in which the dogs , accustomed to not exercising, they return sore and with a fatigue that can be read in their eyes. AMONG ALL Post a letter from the reader Write a post to publish in print and on the web Participates I can't help wondering what will become of those dogs when they cease to be things: will you allow them to enter your house on cold winter nights? Will you take them out for walks at least weekly so that they can experience a glimmer of joy? daily their droppings, on top of which they sleep? Will they stop joining dogs with unsterilized ****** to take their puppies indiscriminately every four months? I very much doubt that this will happen; For this reason, despite the good intentions of the law, I believe that we should go to the base of the matter, we should go further, carrying out educational programs of animal awareness, with the aim of understanding that the animals they use are not things , but they are living beings.
