Since the post-World War period, the U.S. has launched its wars with fearsome displays of force and cutting-edge technology. Overwhelming victories in the initial battles that, however, end disappointingly. The Korean War ended in a stalemate. In Vietnam, with a humiliating
The wooden doors of most of the nearly 200 vaulted shops surrounding the outer part of the grand Naqsh-e Jahan square are closed. The printed fabrics, carpets, carved copper objects, among other products sold in this bazaar that has fascinated tourists for centuries, now gone, are kept inside by order of the authorities.

It will be approved before summer and without significant changes, she assures.

There are matches that cannot be scripted. They start seeming one way and end up being something completely different. The one in Pamplona was heading for a goalless draw and looked like that for a long 80 minutes. But no. The hours before the match contributed to the deception. They influenced the crowd
The majestic image of the Sagrada Família featured on our cover today is a tribute to Antoni Gaudí, on the centenary of his death, and to the city of Barcelona itself for having this fabulous architectural jewel. There are only a few days left until June 10, when,
