Fire stabilization hints at “the beginning of the end” in Los Gallardos

At the advanced command post in Turre, located just a few kilometers from the serious fire that has been threatening the municipality of Los Gallardos and nearby towns since last Thursday, the atmosphere yesterday was somewhat different. This was confirmed around 11 a.m. when the president of the Junta de Andalucía, Juanma Moreno Bonilla, announced that the fire had finally been declared stabilized, so it was downgraded to “operational situation 1” and the gradual return of the thousand people who had been evacuated was authorized. The negative note of the day came at night, when the death of a 93-year-old British woman who was hospitalized at the Torrecárdenas Hospital was confirmed, bringing the death toll to 13. In addition, seven other people remain hospitalized.

Should Bellingham’s goal have been disallowed? This is how the ‘cable-gate’, the World Cup technology scandal, was born

It all started after a long goal kick by the Norwegian goalkeeper Orjan Nyland.

It feels like more meters in length mean more space, more comfort, and more storage capacity. But every now and then, a model appears that breaks that theory and shows that good design can do much more than a few extra centimeters of bodywork.

Christopher Nolan: “It has been a long time since anyone made a film like this, traveling the world, with thousands of actors in the cast”

Christopher Nolan: “It has been a long time since anyone made a film like this, traveling the world, with thousands of actors in the cast”

A mid-July morning on the Moray coast in Scotland, near Inverness: the sky is leaden, the sea rough, and the rain falls horizontally. Christopher Nolan makes his way to the pier in search of his maritime advisor, secretly hoping that this will be the first day of the six-month shoot of The Odyssey when they say to him: “Sorry, not today, the sea is too rough.” However, the vessel they are filming on—a 35-meter wooden ship from Norway—had been built with these conditions in mind. So, although it is clear the experience will be terrible, Nolan is assured it will also be perfectly safe.
