It is hard to believe that, at this point and after years of mobilization by a large part of civil society – yesterday it was the Consell Valencià de Cultura – the Corts Valencianes have not been able to appoint the regional deputies responsible for defending in the Cortes Generales the…
The Consell Jurídic Consultiu (CJC) has made up to five essential observations on the regulations for traditional bullfighting festivities being prepared by the Generalitat Valenciana. The advisory body proposes a series of changes to the executive of Juanfran Pérez Llorca and expresses its doubts about the possibility that the Generalitat, through the Conselleria de Educación, establishes transversal curricular elements or specific subjects on Valencian identity signs and traditional values that refer to the bous al carrer. It would be the educational centers, within the framework of their educational project, that would specify this offer.
A total of 234,000 vehicles, 78% of the 300,000 expected, have returned to the Barcelona area by 8 p.m. this Monday, in the first eight hours of the return operation of the Second Easter holiday, on a day in which traffic jams of up to 17 kilometers have been recorded on the AP-7.

Thinking about medium and long-term investment forces you to ask an uncomfortable question: what part of my wealth depends, day by day, on what the markets dictate? Simply put, in Spain a significant part of family financial savings is channeled into products linked to market performance — stocks, investment funds, or fixed income. The result is well known: the portfolio can go through periods of volatility when economic conditions change (inflation or interest rates) or geopolitical tensions arise that affect economies.
Planning the financial future also involves worrying about how to face the bumps that arise during working life and that often move the idea of the golden retirement further away. This is an area that generates great concern, especially in a world where changes happen at a rapid pace. An example of this is the reception received by initiatives such as those of labor lawyer Ignacio Solsona (Barcelona, 1985), known for his educational videos about retirement, pensions, and subsidies.

Sabrina is an Austrian paragliding pilot with 17,000 followers on Instagram and a lot, a lot of luck. Last Saturday, while paragliding in an area designated for flights in the Alps, a Cessna 172 plane ran over her paraglider — she was just meters away from the propeller hitting her body — and destroyed it.
