The orbital line leaves the drawer: 120 kilometers of tracks and 5.2 billion to break the centralism of Rodalies

The orbital railway line had been kept in a drawer of the Departament de Territori for 15 years. Manel Nadal, the Mobility Secretary who left the file there when the tripartite ended, is the same person who revived the project a decade and a half later.

Joan Ramon Garcés, dermatologist: “Tanning is a sign of damage; healthy tanning does not exist”

It is eight in the morning and the door of Dr. Joan Ramon Garcés at the Institut Dermatologia Garcés de la Teknon opens right on time. He prepares coffee. He is an empathetic, decisive, and cultured man, who lives in peace and is comfortable with himself. He says casually that he always sleeps through the night. Healthy envy.
