'Queen Charlotte: A Story of the Bridgertons' Cinemanía 'The Bridgertons', the Netflix original series, is in the top 1 of the most watched fictions in Spain with the recent premiere of the third season 'Bridgerton: Reina Carlota'. Only a few days ago this spin-off came out and led the ranking of this platform as the most po[CENSORED]r. This historical romance series is based on Julia Quinn's bestselling novels of the same title, set in the competitive world of Regency London high society. As is typical of Netflix, each season has eight episodes. But if you have not yet entered the world of 'The Bridgertons', you still have time to catch up with the episodes and discover the true world that surrounded Queen Charlotte. If, on the other hand, you are a fan and have passed the marathon of the series, there are many curiosities, anecdotes and scenes that hide surprising secrets that you probably did not know. But this article is aimed at all audiences: whether you have seen the series or if you want to delve into it, take note of all these curiosities that cannot go unnoticed to better understand the history and customs of the Duke of Hastings, Anthony Bridgerton , Daphne or Penelope Featherington and the entire universe that surrounds 'The Bridgertons'. 1. Julie Andrews voices Lady Whistledown The po[CENSORED]r actress Julie Andrews, known for playing the iconic babysitter, Mary Poppins, or starring in the unforgettable The Sound of Music, is the voice of Lady Whistledown in the original version of the series. Andrews plays an important facet that, how could it be otherwise, is already an important symbol of 'The Bridgertons'. 2. There are two insects very present In the first season there are two insects that have a lot of weight in 'The Bridgertons' and each one hides a powerful meaning: butterflies and bees. Have you noticed it? The butterflies refer to the Featherington family and are present both in Penelope's dresses and on the stairs of her house, a symbol of gradual social growth. The bees, on the other hand, refer to the Bridgerton family, very present in sets and costumes. The meaning they have is the power enjoyed by the family.3. Queen Charlotte does not exist in the novels Queen Charlotte, played by the celebrated actress Golda Rosheuvel, does not appear in Julia Quinn's novels. Therefore, the decision to incorporate it on the screen was thanks to the producers and writers of the series. The team let it be a good idea to have a monarch in the presence, based on a real historical figure, Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz. 4. Princess Diana's estate, inspiration for Bridgerton House As he conceded to Chris Van Dusen on his own social networks, "the interior of Bridgerton House was inspired by my visit to Althorp when I was developing the series. Elegance. Opulence. And that #staircase." The iconic estate where Princess Lady-Di spent her teenage years. 5. Each family wears specific colors in their wardrobe The wardrobe of the series hides a certain meaning with the colors, since the different families wear suits and designs that follow a certain color range. In the case of the Bridgertons, they usually wear light, neutral or pastel colors, alluding to a higher social class, conveying elegance and fortune. The Featherington family, on the other hand, wear a wardrobe of more remarkable and striking tones. In addition, the wardrobe team is made up of more than 200 people who spend many hours a day creating each look. What's more, counting the accessories of the actors and actresses, a total of 7,500 pieces were created for 5,000 different outfits. 6. Characters with feminist winks A remarkable element for a series set in the 19th century is the nod to certain feminist approaches. But whose idea was this? How could it be otherwise, the leader was the author of the novel, whose intention was to provide the historical series with a modern touch. 7. The real Queen Charlotte was very social It is no coincidence that one of the most representative characteristics of Queen Charlotte is someone who is always alert and aware of everything. "She was definitely part of the Regency-era social scene, so having her with us was important from a historical perspective as well," Chris Van Dusen told ET Online. 8. Interior design and its link with Lady-Di In addition to the fact that Princess Diana's estate was a source of inspiration for the Bridgerton house. Another point that few know is that the interiors of the 'Bridgerton' family house are inspired by Althorp, the home where Princess Diana grew up. The finishes and all the details have a justified reference since nothing is represented without a foundation. 9. Not everything is historically real According to the producer and screenwriter Christ Van Dusen in an interview with The Daily Express: "We honor history, of course, but we are not obliged to it. Even though we are set in the 19th century, we wanted things to feel close. We wanted them to the public would see themselves reflected in these characters". Therefore, if you are a movie buff and do not lose detail of the 'Bridgerton', you will notice some historical discrepancies. 10. Queen Charlotte's hair was inspired by Beyoncé The monarch queen Carlota will change some outfits of the queen of music Beyoncé. "When I researched Queen Charlotte and found out she was of African descent, it gave me so much more scope to create her beautiful looks," Marc Pilcher told Vogue. As the series' stylist told Essence, "I was sorting through some images and then I saw Beyoncé Knowles in Austin Powers Goldmember and that's when I thought, 'That's what I want.' I wanted the biggest afro anyone had ever seen." Link: https://www.20minutos.es/cinemania/series/bridgerton-curiosidades-serie-triunfa-netflix-5126460/

The 'Nerazzurri' team won the first leg of the Champions League semifinals with goals from Dzeko and Mkhitaryan (0-2) Milan improved in the second half and shot at the post, but missed Leao's loss in the last third of the field Inter hit Milan first and forcefully in the Champions League semifinals (0-2). In a sweeping start, Dzeko and Mkhitaryan scored twice in three minutes. And they were no more because Çalhanoglu ran into the post and the VAR denied a penalty on Lautaro. The 'rossonero' team went further after the break, they even shot at the woodwork, but they lacked balance and the 'nerazzurri' managed the income without excessive shocks. San Siro recovered for one night the capital of European football. Between the nostalgia for the golden age of 'calcio' and the hope of stepping on the penultimate ladder of the Champions League more than a decade later, Milan and Inter were measured in the first round of the 'Derby della Madonnina'. The atmosphere gave goosebumps. Absolutely full, noise and color in the stands, painted as the flames of hell and a huge 'rossonero' devil dominating the north end. Paradoxically, green was hell for Milan in the first half. Faced with the loss of his most unbalanced striker, Leao, Pioli reinforced the midfield and relied on the defense, his credential until the semifinals. But it was his theoretical virtue that condemned Milan. At the first substitution, Dzeko gained position in the box from a corner to Calabria and stretched out his leg to nail Çalhanoglu's twisted cross into the corner. Inter did not give time to reply. The 0-2 fell in a play of tiralineas. Dimarco traced the left bank and crossed to the front, where Lautaro let the ball pass to open the goal for Mkhitaryan. The Armenian stood alone against Maignan and beat him with a centered shot. The Milan was a flan. The ball burned him and each 'Nerazzurri' arrival threatened to be final. Çalhanoglu smashed a shell into the post and Maignan, in the subsequent action, kicked out Mkhitaryan's shot from point-blank range. Such was the fragility that Lautaro, in a throw-in, forced a penalty slipping between Tomori and Kjaer. Milan, now without the injured Bennacer, was lucky this time and the VAR denied the punishment.The 'rossonera' reaction, hinted at the edge of the recess, is established after the holiday. Brahim and Messias opened it with two excessive cross shots. Inter crouched. And those of Pioli, without Leao, lacked resources. With more heart than head, they can close the gap on a shot from Tonali to the post. Although, if it hadn't been for Maignan's quick exit against Dzeko, he could have also received the finishing touch. The marker did not move. Inter struck first.

During the years of expansive monetary policies (low interest rates and large stimuli), the financial economy was accused of living in a parallel reality to that of the real economy. Stock markets and bonds were at record levels, interest rates were historically low and bank stress was non-existent. On the contrary, during that period, the real economy was barely growing, salaries were stagnant during and the labor market did not finish fueling. Today, the situation seems to have reversed, something that at first might even seem positive. If the real economy works, what does the financial one matter, many citizens will wonder. Today, the economy is apparently strong, wages are rising (although consumers are losing purchasing power), and labor markets are showing strong data. However, the financial pipes are on the brink of collapse. Can the real economy survive without the help of the financial? Recent economic data has painted a relatively positive picture of business activity in most developed countries. For example, service sector PMI data for April points to expansion at the fastest pace in a year, raising hopes/expectations that a sharp and longer economic slowdown can be avoided. Looking only at the real economy, the odds of a recession or even a single quarter of contraction appear to have dropped substantially since last winter, thanks to the jobs, GDP and PMI data. However, the financial pipes present an advanced state of deterioration. When the pipes break and the water does not reach its destination... we have a problem. credit dries up On the one hand, there is the uncertainty and contraction of credit as a result of the bankruptcy of several banks in the US. Although the prices seem to have stabilized in recent days, when a bank falls, the contagion effect is a real risk whose mitigation is extremely difficult, since depositors and investors are encouraged to move their money to safer places due to many messages of calm launched by the Fed. Although the crisis seems to be solved after each resolution (SVB, Signature Bank, First Republic...), the truth is that fear simply jumps from bank to bank until a great firewall is established. The regional bank is reeling "The recent bankruptcy of First Republic bank has shown that the ripples of the banking crisis have moved through the financial sector and, at the time of writing, it appears that California-based PacWest could be the next victim." they say from the British think tank Center for Economics and Business Research (Cebr). The words "credit tightening," "credit crunch" and "credit crunch" are increasingly appearing in conversations among institutional investors, Tan Kai Xan, an analyst at Gavekal Research, said in a note to clients. The macro concern is that US companies will respond by cutting their capital spending and cutting back on hiring. Therefore, "as credit tightens and becomes more difficult to obtain, bankruptcies in the US can be expected to increase, which will cause the labor market to weaken and growth to evaporate," adds the Gavekal economist. Investigation. deposit leak "While JP Morgan's acquisition of First Republic Bank has eased fears in the banking system, deposits are expected to continue to flow out of US banks, especially after the Fed stood firm on rate hikes last week. That move increased the incentive for depositors to move their savings into higher-yielding money market funds," warns Kai Xan. Assets most closely tied to the Fed's effective interest rates see their yields rise almost immediately, while banks are unable to keep up. This situation forces affected banks to borrow wholesale at more expensive rates and, on the other hand, to sell assets to reduce their balance sheets in an attempt to maintain balance. "The net effect will be lower credit creation and a tougher contraction. Things are unlikely to improve until the Fed starts cutting rates, but that's unlikely to happen until the US hits recession, which will be another headache for the banks," says Tan Kai Xan. Europe and the UK trail behind the US It is true that, so far, the UK and European banks seem to be less affected or exposed to what is happening, with the exception of Credit Suisse. "However, under the surface there are signs that banks on both sides of the Atlantic are reacting to the new economic environment, becoming more cautious and reducing new lending, to the detriment of the real economy," Cebr experts warned. Central bank surveys Also, much of the damage has already been done. The latest data on financial surveys conducted by the US Fed and the ECB in the Eurozone reveal that the financial pipes have stopped working. The central banks have 'cut off' liquidity and the impact on the economy will be felt sooner or later. The good GDP and PMI data have generated a kind of illusion, a prediction that seems excessively optimistic and premature. Victory cannot yet be claimed, let alone seeing what is happening with the banking sector in the US and in some monetary aggregates, warn the think tank Cebr. In the Eurozone, the latest survey on bank loans from the European Central Bank (ECB) reveals that in the first quarter of this year banks suffered credit at the highest rate since the 2011 sovereign debt crisis. Similarly, in the US, credit conditions are holding up and reaching levels that could be described as exceptionally "tight". According to the American Bankers Association's Credit Conditions Index, expectations about credit market conditions are at their lowest since the start of the pandemic, suggesting that US businesses will find it more difficult to obtain loans from banks in the coming months. The rises in interest rates since the end of 2021 are the main factor in the current situation of the banks. Although SVB's risk management appears to have been exceptionally poor, "it is very likely that other banks also have some longer-term government bonds that have lost value since central banks around the world decide to raise rates," they argue. the economists of the british think tank. These are counted as assets on the balance sheet of bank securities, so if their value falls, liabilities (i.e. deposits) will eventually need to be reduced as well. Furthermore, the refusal or inability, especially by US banks, to pass on the higher interest rates to their savings accounts means that deposits have flown out of the banking system at a staggering rate. Estimates put money outflows at JP Morgan, Wells Fargo and Bank of America over the past year topping half a trillion dollars. Meanwhile, the British withdrew a record £4.8bn from UK banks in March alone. Although there are still big differences, financial instability in the US will also cause small waves of distrust in Europe. In the case of Spain, for example, the large banks have also lost around 30 billion euros in deposits since December, according to their recently published quarterly accounts. "In summary, the data suggests that companies (and to a lesser extent potential homebuyers) will find it increasingly difficult to obtain a loan in the coming months. This will have a dampening effect on investment and economic growth, and It is one of the main reasons for our most pessimistic outlook for the world economy," say the Cebr economists. Central banks are in a difficult situation as core inflation is also expected to remain higher for longer than expected, making it more difficult or even impossible for interest rate cuts to begin. stimulate the credit market. All in all, "the current cycle of interest rate increases could have come to an end in May, but it is unlikely that the work of the Federal Reserve, the ECB and the BoE will be easier in the coming months," they say from the Cebr .

Birds are one of the groups of animals that most generate admiration for humans, who appreciate the color of their feathers and the way they fly. Birds are a group of warm-blooded vertebrate animals that have unique characteristics, such as the fact that they only move or maintain themselves on their hind limbs, while the lower limbs use them to carry out one of the activities that also distinguishes the group, fly. However, there are some birds that do not fly, so why are they in this group of vertebrates? The answer lies in the primary characteristic that distinguishes this group of vertebrates, and that is the presence of feathers that cover their bodies. Broadly speaking, if we see birds as a puzzle, you will notice that we already mentioned the hind and lower extremities, and the characteristic plumage around their skin, but there is another anatomical component that is very peculiar to this group. This group of animals is characterized by the absence of teeth and instead, they have a beak that is used to carry out various functions such as feeding and grooming. They are oviparous animals (they lay eggs), and they incubate the small young inside the shell until hatching. There is a great diversity of these animals around the world that, according to the National Commission for the Knowledge and Use of Biodiversity (CONABIO), birds represent 11 percent of the total fauna that exists on the planet. This group of vertebrates has more than 9 thousand species and Mexico has just over a thousand in the territory. People often call birds by their common name or in a different way, depending on the geographic region, however, the term "bird" is often used as a synonym for an organism with wings. Something similar happens with a group of reptiles, where they usually use the word viper and snake as synonyms, despite not being the same. It might interest you to read: What is the difference between "snake", "viper" and "snake": Know the correct way to refer to these animals. Now it's time to explain to you what this singular difference in the group of birds refers to. What is the difference between birds and birds? Scientifically, like the rest of the animal suborders, birds are divided into: families subfamilies genders subgenres species subspecies The term "bird" is the set of all vertebrate species that have feathers and the aforementioned characteristics. While the word "bird" derives from the Latin passer and refers to a specific order of birds, the passerines. Passerines are the largest order of birds, encompassing more than half of the known species. Regarding their anatomy, passerines have four fingers: three directed forwards and one towards the back of the bird. They are small, and have a complex system in the syrinx (vocal organ), a characteristic that allows them to elaborate more elaborate songs, compared to the rest of the birds. So we can conclude that all birds are birds, but not all birds are birds! Share science, share knowledge.

Before starting to write to me, I took the trouble to read the comments of all the publications we have made about this motorcycle, and this brand, in the last 2 years. There are many. It makes sense, CFMoto is one of the brands that has had the most movement globally in terms of news and launches. But I am going to stay with a comment that, I think, summarizes the essence of the collective thought of motorcycle users, at least in our country: If this is premium, what is left for the GS, Africa, V-Strom? Are they from another planet? Beyond the distortion and madness of the prices of motorcycles in our market, the constant on this particular motorcycle was that the water has already covered us, you cannot pay x peas for a Chinese motorcycle. Let's see, many things still need to be evaluated regarding the brand, and everything is in the future, so we are going to limit ourselves to talking purely and exclusively about the product based on the experience we had during the 1000 kilometers we did on our expedition to Tandil last week. And I think we are in a position to inform you that high-end motorcycles are already being manufactured in China. No buts, no jokes and no counting the ribs. The CFMoto 800MT is, in our opinion, the first motorcycle to achieve a position in this category. And yes, at international prices, the brand has come out to compete with a product that wants to fight equally and with a price that is on par with, and even above, those of its traditional competitors. This 800MT Touring costs more than a Transalp 750, Ténéré 700, V-Strom 800, or V85TT, and is close to the value of an F850GS, 890 Adventure, or Triumph Tiger 900GT. In our market it has an advantage, it came out with a price that, in some cases, reaches 50% of some of the models mentioned above. Before the launch, I am not very clear about how much it was going to cost, but we do anticipate a very ambitious plan by the brand. While we were spying on the previous movements, the volume of operations, or kits, caught our attention, since it is a locally produced model, which they had at the time they started. We are talking about more than 750 units of the 800MT between the different versions that will be marketed. At the moment, only this Touring version will be available at dealerships, but during the year the line will be completed with the Sport and Explore Edition versions. I suppose that at this point there must be a large number of skeptics who do not agree that the motorcycle is CFMoto. That it has no history, that it is Chinese, that it is not Japanese, Italian, Austrian or German and all the ña ña ña that we usually hear from the most purist guardians of the doctrine and the status quo of two wheels. But we will address that issue later. Perhaps it is a good time to repair the list of equipment that this motorcycle offers as standard and that in other brands are optional, especially in the top top, or you have to go out and look for it in the aftermarket. Ride by wire electronic accelerator, with two driving modes -sport and rain-, grip warmer and seat warmer -only for the pilot- with three temperature levels, adjustable windshield, up&down quickshifter, auxiliary headlights, full LED lighting with DRL, turns autocancellable, automatic activation of beacons in case of emergency braking, cornering ABS, slipper clutch, side cases and top-case, 7″ TFT color screen with Bluetooth connection and navigation through the CFMoto Ride app, high fenders and lowers, skid plate, Akront spoked rims for tubeless use, tire pressure and temperature sensors, steering damper, fully adjustable KYB inverted tubes at the front and adjustable preload and rebound monoshock at the rear, double 320 mm floating disc at the front with J.Juan 4-piston radial calipers, grip covers, 2 USB ports, a 12v socket and a large number of extra functions in the instrumentation. We have probably forgotten something, and it is striking that among so much equipment, what stands out the most is the lack of traction control and the possibility of disconnecting the ABS on the rear wheel. Special section for the CFMoto Ride application. Thanks to the fact that the motorcycle comes with the T-Box installed, it allows obtaining a lot of information about the motorcycle, starting with the possibility of locating where our unit is located, the kilometers it has, the general average consumption, the fuel level and the battery voltage. On the other hand, problems can be reported, both with the vehicle and with the application, describing what happened and uploading photos to send to the manufacturer. Suggestions can also be made. And as for the data on the use of the motorcycle, you can see day by day the km traveled, the total time of use, the maximum speed and the number of fast accelerations, strong braking and inclinations of the motorcycle. You can see history of routes and generate a fence that notifies us if the motorcycle left the area that we delimited. Speaking of notifications, you can also receive alerts if any movement is detected while leaving the bike parked, if you're low on fuel, you can set a fatigue reminder to alert you to the instrument after x number of hours of continuous use, reminders if the vehicle has not been used for the amount of time we determine, notifications of high engine rpm and overheating should it occur. And you can also use the navigation function, which will give us turn-by-turn instructions on the TFT screen. In short, the list is endless and updates can even be installed in the system. We took two days to test the motorcycle on a round trip to Tandil, leaving from the Obelisco, where the CFMoto Centro dealership is located, which gave us one of the two units, traveling on highways, highways and routes to learn about the travel skills of this adventure turning and with some good exits off the asphalt once we reached the destination, thanks to our local guide and friend Agustín Chiche Salanueva, to whom we also lent the motorcycle for a while so that he could test it. Bearing in mind that the 800MT has a combination of 17″-19″ wheels and a fairly contained suspension travel -150/160mm- we focused on riding hard on gravel in good condition, although we had a share of somewhat broken trails with unevenness and stones to take it a little further. But to talk about all this, they will have to go see the video that we prepared for this test ride, where they will be able to see the bike in action, in detail, and we will review it from start to finish. The Chinese industry reached a motorcycle level that, honestly, we did not know when it would be embodied in a product. It was not long ago that this category of products was fully compensated. And suddenly motorcycles of the category of the 700 CL-X, of the Benelli 752S began to appear, which increased to raise the bar in terms of quality, performance and refinement of mechanics and components. On the horizon are products such as the Moto Morini X-Cape 650, Benelli Leoncino and TRK 800, and even Voge has a trail 900 on his hands. Although all of this remains to be seen and they are not products that we have tested, it is more than clear that Important things are coming from China. What we can affirm from experience is that up to now we had not seen or tested anything, with this provenance, it looks like this CFMoto 800MT. And by this we mean the level of product, manufacturing quality and the benefits it offers from mechanics, cycling and comfort. Surely we also approach the product with a certain prejudice for being from such a brand and such an origin, but it doesn't take many kilometers to realize what a piece of motorcycle it really is and prejudices are falling one by one. Yes, you can find things to improve. The accelerator could be more precise in some situations, the quickshifter has its moments, the design of the instrument interface, the precision of the on-board computer, the cruise control cannot be deactivated with the accelerator and the mechanism to regulate the the height of the windshield could be operated with one hand -although it is very good-, but the quality standard that this motorcycle has set, the level of design and equipment it has and what it offers the user on the road and off it, the It puts it well above what we have managed up to now from Mao Tse Tung's payments. Many will think that it is a compendium of components from other manufacturers, and perhaps it is to some extent, but with no less detail: it is with the permission of those other manufacturers. And there is something that CFMoto seems to be very clear about: to compete with the first level, you have to do it with the same weapons. That's why they went to Kiska Design, not only to design products like this one, but to completely redesign the brand and its global expansion strategy. world brand. Chinese heart is the motto, with no intention of hiding its identity. And from there its agreements with brands such as KTM, J.Juan, Bosch, Dell'Orto, KYB, Michelin and Akront among others. The fact that it continues to be marketed in our market under other local brands was unsustainable at the time, and this 800MT was the perfect excuse for CFMoto to finally begin to follow its own path in Argentina, something that came hand in hand with a network of dealers. exclusive and a quite demanding brand manual by which everyone, from its representative to its dealers, must be handled. Perhaps this is not the easiest year to land in a country like ours, but all those behind CFMoto have a level of enthusiasm that makes us think that they are above what may happen at the local level. That what they have in hand, and what is coming, is better than everyone thinks. And this bike is just a sample of all that. And all this is good for several reasons. Firstly, because it makes better products available to a larger market, and then it will make those who used to look down from above no longer feel so comfortable. In everyday life we said something that some misunderstood: this motorcycle came to rob the rich, not the poor. Some susceptible wanted to take her to another terrain, but the majority understood this unfortunate statement. And at times we feel that the fact that it does not have a 21″ wheel in front, and being able to offer a full adventure motorcycle, was part of the terms and conditions for the development to be possible. Ultimately, if the other Chinese manufacturers that have 700, 800 and 900cc bikes on their hands plan to compete in the same way at this price level of bike, they are going to have to make a significant effort. We hope they do, because in the end everything will result in more and better motorcycles for motorcyclists. In response to the comment in the first paragraph, I think the answer is that premium bikes like the ones mentioned are not going to drop in level, in fact they improve year by year, so they will continue to be just that: one of the best bikes that money can buy. But we must not minimize the enormous improvement of brands like this one, which until recently were not even on the radar, because they are getting closer, because they want to and, above all, because they have the wallet. It was not easy to analyze this bike without taking into account everything behind it, it is what happens when a product appears that marks a break, a leap in quality within a brand. And we will have to be attentive to everything that comes after. Now yes, we leave you with the test ride of this CFMoto 800MT Touring, the motorcycle that marked the relaunch of the brand in Argentina. We hope you like it and see you in the comments. What we liked the most MOTHER: + The overall quality of the bike. Difficult to stay with only 3 things on a bike that has so much to highlight and that, for me, marks a break within the brand. If the new developments -of 800 and 450- that they have in hand are going to be at this level, CFMoto is going to be a big problem for many. + The mechanics they chose. A big part of what this bike is is because the Austrians let them use the 790 engine, and not a copy. You get on a top-level motorcycle. + Without going into so much detail, because we already mentioned everything before, the level of equipment and comfort of this motorcycle is on a par with the most expensive motorcycles on the market. And a more equipped version is still missing. FM: + The engine. It's the KTM one and it rides incredible. + Suspension adjustment level surprises for an adventure touring motorcycle and the segment it targets + The equipment is amazing. Above all, and at this time of year, the heating. What we liked least MOTHER: – It seems absurd to me that having the latest in electronics the package is so restricted. There's no traction control, there are only two riding modes, and you can't turn off ABS. – I don't like that you can't disengage the cruise control with the accelerator. – The precision of the on-board computer regarding the consumption of the motorcycle is to be improved. And it also seems to me that they could take much more advantage of that 7″ screen with a better interface design. FM: – should have control of a motorcycle with this level of performance – ABS should be able to be switched off, off road it is safer and more useful. – You need…reverse?

Chickpea is a legume that provides many health benefits. RTVE They are not the protagonists of any stew either, they are missing in stews and have become even more po[CENSORED]r with hummus. Be that as it may, chickpeas are probably one of the most used legumes in the Spanish recipe book. And it is not for less, because their great benefits require them in a food of 10.

In addition, their cultivation cycle is 100 days and is done mainly in the winter months, since they are resistant to cold and need less water than other legumes. They come from a bush The bush from which the chickpea grows can reach 50 centimeters in height. It has white or purple flowers, and inside each pod you can find a maximum of two or three seeds. 90% comes from India and Pakistan Although chickpeas are grown in many places, 90% of world production is concentrated in India and Pakistan. Although it should be noted that Spain is one of the most important chickpea producers in Europe. Types of chickpeas and where they are most used There are different varieties of this legume.

An investigation found dozens of websites publishing hundreds of articles per day generated by chatbots like ChatGPT. They publish all kinds of news, some as crazy as the death of Biden. A new generation of content farms is on the way, warns Newsguard. The organization, which is tasked with tracking false information on the Internet, found at least 49 news websites in April that were written almost entirely by AI chatbots, such as ChatGPT. Some publish hundreds of articles per day, many of them with disparate information. "Last minute: The White House has reported that Joe Biden would have it peacefully while he slept," the Celebridadesdeaths.com portal (dead celebrities in English) published last month. They are websites designed to imitate human communication and the format of traditional news pages. Almost all of the content features bland language and repetitive phrases, characteristic of the AI. Not all websites have a name as obvious or suspicious as "dead celebrities." Others have more generic names, intended to give the impression of being created media: Biz Breaking News, News Live 79 or Daily Business Post. Articles are rewritten from other sources. For example, BestBudgetUSA.com summarizes articles from CNN. The sites are saturated with advertising. This means that these AI-created news websites were surely designed to generate revenue from programmatic, algorithmically placed ads that are today financed by a large part of the world's media. Who put together these AI news websites? In these AI-generated news websites, sensationalist headlines, such as the death of the president of the United States, are key. Also, trivia: "Why is yawning contagious?" or "why is the sky blue but space is black?" These are two examples of the articles published by GetIntoKnowledge.com. Newsguard tried to contact the directors of these portals. Of the 49 sites, only 29 had a contact address. Most were fake emails or never responded. Among those who did respond is the administrator of Famadillo.com, a site that publishes product reviews by AI. "We made an expert (sic) to use AI to edit old articles that no one reads anymore, just to see how it works," said Maria Spanadoris, who declined a phone call. Therefore, his identity could not be verified. Adesh Ingale identified himself as the founder of GetIntoKnowledge.com. "We use automation at some points where they are extremely needed," he told Newsguard in an email. According to Ingale, everything is published manually under human supervision, but he did not elaborate on the use of AI. He did highlight: "We are the new era that will provide knowledge in each and every one of the corners." News websites generated by AI chatbots are written in seven languages: Chinese, Czech, English, French, Portuguese, Tagalog, and Thai. Many of the articles are signed by "Administrator", "Editor" or simply have no signature at all. Other sites feature fake author profiles. HarmonyHustle.com, for example, has a list of its creators, including "Alex" and "Tom." Newsguard, however, did an investigation based on their profile photos and found that they were not real. How to identify these fake pages? In addition to being endorsed by an author signature, articles on these news websites often include clear evidence that they were written by an AI. For example, articles on BestBudgetUSA.com often contain phrases such as "I can't produce 1500 words...However, I can provide you with a summary of the article..." plus the link to the original CNN report. Other posts contain sentences like "My deadline is September 2021" or "As an AI language model...". The article on Biden's death said that the vice president would replace the president of the United States. Then, however, he continued: "Sorry, I can't complete this message because it goes against OpenAI's use case policy on generating misleading content." OpenAI is the creator of ChatGPT. The 49 websites analyzed by Newsguard contained at least one article with these flaws. You can also tell the use of a chatbot by the repetitive language, which constantly includes fillers such as "in conclusion" and "it is important to remember". These sites have a varied presence on social networks. ScoopEarth.com, for example, has 124,000 followers on Facebook. While FilthyLucre.com, which publishes financial articles, operates on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter with zero followers. This is just the beginning, just months away from the launch of ChatGPT. "Concerns that (AI) could be used to evoke entire news organizations, once the subject of speculation... have now become a reality," Newsguard reported.

The captain of the Argentine National Team was the great figure at the evening in Paris. Carlos Alcaraz, Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce and Christian Eriksen, among others, also won. Lionel Messi became the first to win two Laureus awards in the same edition: Best Sportsman and Best Team with the Argentine National Team. Photo: Laureus. Lionel Messi is the best athlete of 2023. He is better than the French footballer Kylian Mbappé -although at PSG they incredibly think the opposite. He is also better than the Dutch pilot Max Verstappen, the Swedish athlete Mondo Duplantis, the Spanish tennis player Rafael Nadal and the American basketball player Stephen Curry. This was defined by the notable jury of the Laureus Awards, the sports Oscars, which were delivered this Monday at the Pavillion Vendome in Paris. But Messi's conquests, in times of turbulence at his club and with his future caught between question marks, did not end there. It is that the Argentine National Team, the one whose captain is Rosario and who comes from winning the World Cup in Qatar 2022, is the best team of the year. It's better than the England women's soccer team, the France men's rugby team, the Real Madrid soccer team, the NBA's Golden State Warriors, and the Red Bull Formula 1 team. Yes, Messi and La Scaloneta are the best of the best. And there is little to discuss. It is the second time that Messi, 35, has won a Laureus after the one he obtained in 2020. However, on that occasion, La Pulga shared the recognition with the British Formula 1 driver Lewis Hamilton. This time it was solo and it was Verstappen's turn to succeed, winner in 2022. However, he is far from the five statuettes that the Swiss Roger Federer collected in his wonderful career as a tennis player. "The World Cup came at the end of my career, but it was the most beautiful thing," said Messi, who was accompanied on stage by Argentine rugby legend Hugo Porta, who compared the captain of the Argentine National Team to South African statesman Nelson Mandela for for his leadership and for his ability to inspire others. "If Mandela were here, I would give you a hug," emphasized the former Los Pumas fly-half. "It cost me a lot (the World Cup), almost my entire career. I want to share it with all of Argentina," Messi continued, visibly moved. At that moment, he recalled that before he had had "a lot of happiness with Barcelona and sadness with the National Team." And he closed: "It was a lesson, with many stones on the way, to improve myself, to improve myself, together with my family and my loved ones," he added, who attended the evening with his partner, Antonela Roccuzzo. Together they caused a furor with their looks. The Argentine star arrived with an elegant look together with his wife Antonela Roccuzzo But Messi's night did not end there. It is that Leo made history and did not need to have a ball as a tool. He didn't even have to put on his shorts. With his elegant tuxedo, he became the first athlete to receive double awards at the Laureus (individual and team) since these awards began to be given in the year 2000. The fact is that the Argentine National Team also took his statuette and was Messi who received. received. And that the president of the AFA, Claudio Chiqui Tapia, also participated in the party. and the defender Lisandro Martínez, who was accompanied by his partner, the influencer Muri López Benítez. La Scaloneta, that magnificent and unforgettable creation by Lionel Scaloni, took the prize for his role in the World Cup in Qatar, where he prevailed in a hectic final against France, second in the fight, after the penalty shootout to shout champion for the third time. time. in History. An important detail: Messi left the gala with a pin on one of his lapels with the AFA shield and its brand new three stars. The Selection succeeds the Italian soccer team, which last year gave an unforgettable dance at Wembley in the Finalissima, that smile that is attributed as a prologue to that unforgettable end of the year in the Middle East. "It was an award for work, camaraderie, humility and respect. Not only Argentina found themselves identified (with our team), but a large part of the world. Respect above all else," said Messi, who received the award from the Italian coach Fabio Capello and Spanish footballer Carles Puyol, his former partner in Barcelona, who, like Porta, make up the jury of 71 notables from the Laureus Academy. "We have fought it and we have gone through very difficult moments, but all together, with that strength, that hunger, we said to ourselves: why can't we be world champions? After the match against Saudi Arabia, as Leo said, we had to believe" , commented Licha Martínez, who will recover from an injury to one of her feet. And he added: "We did it with the humility of accepting defeat, respecting our rivals when we win and lose." The Manchester United defender arrived at the Laureus Awards gala in Paris with a look very similar to that of captain Lionel Messi. Chiqui Tapia also had the floor, who assured that the victory in Qatar was "a great joy for all Argentines who felt proud of their country at a very special moment." And he closed: "When there is a project and a whole team wants the same, there is nothing impossible," closed the strong man of Argentine soccer who is traveling through Europe for commercial matters. It was another Argentine night in Paris, with a Messi who shone again after a convulsed week due to his trip to Saudi Arabia that led to an unprecedented sanction by the PSG leadership. Hours before becoming the center of the sports universe, La Pulga had at least obtained a pardon from his Qatari employers and was able to train at the Camp des Loges, the sports venue of his club. It was the same day that in Spain they assured, without any reservation, that their future was tied to Al Hilal, the Arab team led by Ramón Díaz. For now, nothing is resolved. It is only known that Messi and La Scaloneta are the best of the best.
