The verdict on the sister and the brother-in-law of the king, accused of corruption, will be revealed in march
MADRID.- Covered in his discretion habitual, Felipe VI lives a year-end anxiety. From one moment to another will come to light by the judgment of the case Nóos, the pattern of corruption that has undermined the prestige of the Spanish Crown and who is among the accused to the sister of the king, the infanta Cristina de Borbón, and her husband, Iñaki Urdangarin.
But the outcome of this “calvary court”, as it once described the Royal House, delay until the unthinkable in the middle of a novel of intrigue, tensions between the judges who must fail and suspicions of political pressure to influence the decision.
The trial ended six months ago in the Provincial court of Palma de Mallorca. With the expired term to issue the verdict, the court has just requested an extension until march in an attempt to resolve the discrepancies between its three members, and also to avoid a divided ruling that could unleash disputes of international impact.
The dispute, according to information that leaked from the courts, arose from a first version of the sentence that it proposed to declare innocent, to Cristina and to impose a sentence of seven years in prison Urdangarin, for whom the prosecutor Pedro Horrach asked 19 and a half years by a cluster of eight serious crimes.
The text as drafted by the rapporteur of the case, Samantha Romero, who works with exclusive dedication to that since July. But at least one of the other two judges considered it “very favorable” to the family of the king, according to judicial sources.
Everything is back to zero. The desirability of a unanimous decision after a process stickleback, which took six years -and that influenced the abdication of king Juan Carlos I in 2014 – is something in it that match the government of Mariano Rajoy, the Royal House and the judicial authorities that must oversee the case.
Urdangarin is accused of having created a false charity -the Institute Nóos – through which he earned 6.2 million euros of public contracts that, in large measure, they ended up in his pocket. I blame, like his partner, Diego Torres, crimes of embezzlement, malfeasance, fraud, traffic of influence, tax evasion, embezzlement and money laundering.
the infanta the judge as an active participant required two tax crimes of her husband through a company called Aizoon that they shared at 50%.
winding Path
The road to sit on the bench was tortuous, marked by political efforts to exculparla and operations in appearance malicious of those who are bent on her prey.
Neither the prosecutor Horrach, nor the State attorney -principal plaintiff – filed charges against her. If it came to the trial was by the particular charge of a controversial union officials called Clean Hands, which asked for the sister of the king to eight years in prison.
In a full trial, the leaders of this organization fell prisoners as responsible for a series of extortion to businessmen and politicians, who allegedly asked for the money to change not to harass them with complaints in the Justice.
Michael Bernard -one of the leaders of Clean Hands – he wrote a letter this month in which it is declared a victim of “an operation designed by the sewers of the State” to “the infanta was not convicted”. He reiterated his version never proven that the own king Juan Carlos, the father of Cristina and Felipe VI, had sent an emissary who offered him 2 million euros in exchange for withdrawing from the trial.
The discredit of the plaintiffs was nevertheless a relief for Cristina. In your environment are increasingly sure to be exculpada. The data that leaked on the first version of the ruling argue that a fine would be all the sentence against her. Judicial sources indicate that at that point there would be no special discrepancy between the judges, as happens with regard to crimes of Urdangarin.
“She is convinced of her innocence and that they are going to acquit. Everything else are rumors. Now we have to wait,” says Pau Molins, one of the lawyers of the infanta. Denies in addition to the publication of the journal The World that he attributed to Cristina having said that I couldn’t wait to finish the whole process “for not having set foot in most of Spain”.
Relocation
Stripped by his brother the title of duchess of Palma, isolated from the royal family, Cristina lives in Geneva with Urdangarin and their four children. Just let see for Barcelona, where they had the family mansion. In the last few weeks, leaked versions that you are planning to move to Lisbon, to reduce the expenses that it takes to live in Switzerland and be more close to Spain.
it Seems inevitable that you will have to re followed to your country to visit Urdangarin: even if you got a conviction soft, no one believes that he can avoid a stint in jail. She will not abandon them. Already resisted years of pressure. First his father and later his brother to divorciara and could ride away from the scandal.

It is known that the pieces are ancient and contemporary, and that three of them are so large that it cannot fit in the main headquarters of the museum, the palace of Velarde. Regarding the price, the Palace pointed out that it is "incalculable" because it works "out of market".
the quality Of the collection Arango was recorded with his two donations prior to the Prado Museum: the transfer in 1991 of 80 prints from the first edition of the Whims goyescos, and in 2015 of 26 works of Zurbarán, Goya, Francisco de Herrera ” The Lad, Peter Campaign, Valdés Leal, Luis de Morales and Antonio del Castillo.

Taking advantage of the occasion, the Prado museum has edited a catalogue in which we work out in detail the 26 recent contributions of the mexican.
Arango said Tuesday at the press of asturias, the reasons for their donations: "In the case of the Prado it was because of my emotional attachment and personal to this great museum. And Asturias is the land of my origins, I wanted so to pay homage to my parents," he said in reference to his time as president of the Patronage of the Prado and the land of their progenitors, Jerónimo Arango Díaz and María Luisa Arias Fernandez.
Arango is known to be a patron that has nothing to do with public recognition. In the Meadow has declined that their donations be grouped in any room with its name; it is expected that in Oviedo’s works are also integrated in the collection overall. "He has not raised any demand in any way," confirmed a Palace on statements gathered by The Nation.
As happened in the Meadow, Arango, nor has it established any compensation, except the right to usufruct for lifetime. Among other charges related to the world of art and culture, Plácido Arango was member of the Patronato Museo del Prado between 1986 and 2007; since that year until 2012 he was president, and then patron of Honor. He served as president between 1987 and 2006, the Prince of Asturias Foundation.
The Fine Arts of Oviedo has a collection of 15 thousand books, although the institution dates back to only 1980. Preserves works of El Greco, Goya, Oteiza, Titian, Veronese, Ribera, and Zurbarán.

Jennifer Lawrence gives us some of the keys of what will be the big premiere of the end of the year, 'Passengers'. A science fiction movie where the actress gives life to the Aurora, a passenger of a space ship that travels to a distant planet colonized by humans.
BLASTING NEWS. What aspect of your character you identify with?
JENNIFER LAWRENCE. What I like the most and identifies me with Aurora is its independence. I’ve never been in a situation of feeling trapped as my character in the film. It is hard to imagine that feeling of loneliness but I think that the momentum of Aurora rise is something we have in common.
BN. In 'Passenger' give life to an ambitious journalist in new york willing to leave everything to immerse yourself in a space adventure and get back to Earth to publish the experience in his great work, what would you do a journey, sacrificed on the real life for the film of your life?
JL. If I knew that I’m going to have the best experience of my life leave everything to immerse myself in a trip like this but never for a job.
BN. As a writer you’re in the movie, what book would you take to a colony in space?
JL. I would take a Harry Potter book although I have to admit that I’ve read all the books like three or four times I even know some of the spells (laughter).
BN. And if you should choose a music album, what would you take to the spaceship Avalon?
JL. ‘Lemonade’ from Beyoncé.
BN. For many you are the actress of the saga ('The hunger games' and 'X-men: first class'), what is your criterion when choosing a role?
JL. I’ve Never thought of what roles I will play in the future because I have never imagined anything of what has happened up to now. In fact, I consider it a waste of time to imagine what you are going to do so long-term. When I get a script I just think, as a spectator, I wonder if I would see the movie and if that is the case, I do. Of course that also influences which is headed by a director with the I want to work.
BN. Us how could you tell something about the movie interesting and fun?
JL. I can Only say that 'Passengers' has been the best screenplay I have read.
BN. What has been the most special moment of the movie?
JL. Perhaps the first time we shared a joke but especially the motivational speech that Chris Pratt gave us in the middle of the shoot when the entire team was working very hard and the mood we played a bad pass.
BN. On the challenge of having filmed with so few actors are human and with so much special effect, How you dealt with it?
JL. There is a little more pressure. The set of the shoot has been the largest in which I’ve worked before but it felt very intimate, there were less distraction and work more concentrated. What struck me the most were the holograms futuristic.
BN. What has been difficult to work with wires and harnesses to create the zero gravity of the film?
JL. Was more difficult for me than for Chris. I’m not as athletic as him. were very necessary for the double, and specialists that we replaced in the scenes. They were the ones who managed it all.
BN. After having put in the skin of this traveler of space, do you see yourself able to form part of the future crew that will travel to Mars? According to NASA, this trip could be done in February of 2030.
JL. I love the idea of space exploration but I’m not thrilled with the idea of traveling to Mars. I have been told that the weather there is very bad, that makes a lot of heat (laughter). Madrid, however, could itself be a site for us.
So, how well it indicates in the title of this note, Passenger (literal translation of the original title Passengers) is a love story, even when in the trailer and the advertising endeavored to make us believe that it was a science fiction movie with a premise very interesting: two passengers wake up from a hibernation state induced 90 years before you get to your new planet to Homestead II, it sounds good, doesn’t it? This trailer and the advertising telling us as love incarnate in the couple of Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt could against the problems and adversities that a spacecraft autonomous could present.
The story begins when Jim Preston (Pratt) wakes up to discover that it’s the only crew member of the spaceship Avalon that you are awake, this a failure in your cabin of hibernation that makes your dream ended 90 years earlier than planned, with no way of returning to its state of hibernation, Jim finds boredom in the monotony and despair in solitude.
Pratt, the loneliness of his character led him to concentrate on the purpose of his actions as he tells us in this interview.
At some point Preston ceases to be only when Aurora Lane (Lawrence) wakes up, they both offer meaning to the life of the other, at the end of the day are the only two people millions of miles, and each other. On the performances, are good to dry, it is not the best performance of any of the two but I think that more than anything is because they were not required. Pratt spends most of the movie alone and be grateful for your sparkle on-screen, a couple of jokes with an android named Arthur, played by Michael Sheen, give a spark inside of a bleak atmosphere. Lawrence does very well in the few scenes in which you can expose your skills histriónicos.
The Avalon (Passenger)
The fort more imposing in this movie are its special effects, well-designed and very impressive at the time to portray a ship monumental as what is the Avalon, , a ship with 5,000 passengers, with autonomy for a interstellar journey of 120 years. Whose design work is immediately apparent. Space, stars, galaxies, asteroids, and moments of zero gravity make Passengers a movie recommended for lovers of good visual effects.
Before concluding this note I’d like to ask two questions, what if they were alone in a space ship that very probably will die alone, would wake up to someone to make them company? How would that be the greatest act of love, or the greatest example of selfishness?
At the end of the day, Passengers is a good film to pass the time, palomera, that in my opinion is between being a movie with a plot extremely interesting and a love story that we’ve seen it a million times but this is in the version space (with dyes of Wall-E, net). For those who are on vacation, Passengers is already in the halls of our country, and whether it’s a vueltita to the cinema.
Cardiomyopathy takotsubo is the correct name for a bad heart that might well be explained as a “broken heart”
Carrie Fisher and her mother Debbie Reynolds died in the same week. Photo: Getty
Can you die of sadness?
That’s what many are wondering following the case of actress Debbie Reynolds , 84 years, who passed away this Wednesday, a day after the death of his daughter, is also actress Carrie Fisher .
What is certain is that cases like this are not uncommon. Similar stories of relatives who die within hours or days of difference do you think that this can be a pattern.
research published in 2014 in the journal JAMA Internal Medicine, found that, although it happened rarely, the number of people who suffered a heart attack or a stroke in the month after the death of a loved one was double that of a control group of people that I was not going through any grief.
In the group of mourners, 30.447 people, 50 of them suffered any of the conditions listed above, or 0.16%, Whereas in the group without duels, only 0.08%.
One of the authors of the study, dr. Sunil Shah, of the University of London, said to said to the BBC: “frequently use the term ‘broken heart’ to refer to the pain of losing a loved one. Our study shows that bereavement can have a direct effect on the health of the heart“..
Heart dazed
Some people talk about “syndrome of broken heart”, known more formally as stress cardiomyopathy or cardiomyopathy takotsubo.
“it Is a temporary condition in which the heart muscle weakens suddenly, or stuns. The left ventricle, one of the chambers of the heart, changes of form”, as explained on the British Heart Foundation.

The scientific name, cardiomyopathy takotsubo comes from the japanese word used to refer to a type of trap with round bottom and narrow neck used to hunt octopus. The stress suddenly causes the heart’s left ventricle -which pumps blood – get in this way.
The abnormality may be caused by an emotional shock. “Close to three-quarters of people diagnosed with cardiomyopathy takotsubo have experienced emotional stress or significant physical before you get sick“, says the foundation. This stress could be due to a duel, but also to any other problem.
There are documented cases of people who suffer from the condition after his colleagues get scared with some joke, or suffer from the stress of speaking before a large group of people.
it Is speculated that the sudden release of hormones -in particular, adrenaline – causes the stunning of the heart muscle.
heart Attack
This situation is different to a heart attack, which is when the heart stops, because the blood flow is constricted, perhaps by clogged arteries.
“The majority of heart attacks occur due to blockages and blood clots forming in the coronary arteries, which supply blood to the heart,” says an article on the broken heart syndrome published by the Johns Hopkins University.

The majority of patients who suffer from cardiomyopathy “have coronary artery disease quite normal and do not have blockages or severe blood clots,” says the center on its web site.
Many people simply recover. The stress goes away and the heart returns to its normal form.
But in other patients, such as the elderly or those with a heart condition, the change in the shape of the heart can lead to a fatal outcome.
did you Die of love?
there is Also evidence of an increased risk of death after the hospitalization of a member of a couple, according to a study published in 2006 in the New England Journal of Medicine.
Other research published in 2011 suggests that the odds that the fellow survivor die increase for six months after the departure of his partner.
Specialists point out that a marriage in which the spouses mutually support one another acts as a shock absorber of the stress. Couples also monitor each other and encourage healthy behavior: remember to take your medications, for example, and check that you don’t drink too much.
Whatever the science behind “broken heart syndrome”, the results are mixed. on the one hand, there is the pain of the family that loses at the same time to two people who love each other. But also, relief that if you both were deeply in love, pass on to a “better life” together.
Cardiomyopathy takotsubo is the correct name of this evil heart, but “broken heart” explains it best.

“I have friends who I’ve known for 15 years and I don’t know them as well or they know me as well as we do, because we spend 16 hours a day together, every day,” he said smiling Lawrence.
The address is Morten Tyldum, who had a great reception for his previous tape: The enigma code.

–what All actors dream of making a movie about the outer space, wearing space suits and playing without gravity?
Jennifer Lawrence: –If you really do not have gravity would be amazing. The truth is that you are in a cable, hanging in your underwear with a space suit of 30 kilos, making it float your arms as if you do not feel weight. View the article’s great, but to do it…
Michael Sheen: –What You have liked most to do as in Apollo 13, got on that plane and leaving you to fall?
J. L.: –No.
Chris Pratt: –I would have loved…
M. S.: really?
C. P.: –it Would be amazing.
M. S.: –That scares me a lot.
C. P.: –I would have loved to, I would do it without thinking.
J. L.: –If ever I see you talking with one of our pilots…
M. S.: –”Let it fall, just turn off the engines.”
–do you Go on a journey of 120 years to colonize a planet attracts them?
J. L.: – To me yes, it is a great adventure. Definitely, it has the disadvantage that for when you get there all you know and you are dead. If you could bring some people… If I could carry Michael and Pratt, would be like “guys, let’s go on vacation, don’t ask anything, you are going to need a washing of columbus”. And then bring them into the chambers of hibernation and when they awoke they would say: “we’re 200 years in the future!”
M. S.: –it Would be interesting to see if here 200 years, someone is watching some of the movies in which we are the three.
J. L.: –of Course!
C. P.: –But it is crazy to think that for 200 or 300 years that people have had to make that decision. They came up on ships going to the West, a place that they knew they would return.
M. S.: –This idea of being a pioneer, I can see why it is so exciting for the people.
C. P.: –We have run out of things to explore physically on this planet. There are No islands that are left, there are no pieces of earth that have not been explored. There is a land serene for being discovered.
–In the film there is a great twist that will make the audience react…
J. L.: –That’s what’s amazing, we don’t want people to talk about a lot of this is because we want you to be surprised. It is a turn very controversial that we have not even advertised and it is what I liked the most of the script. All that see it will think different.
–do the refreshing to make a film with an original story?
M. S.: –it is increasingly rare to see a film of this scale to arrive completely fresh. It is not part of something you’ve seen before. It is not a rehash, it’s an original story, it is different to anything I’ve seen before. And it is also a huge science fiction movie, and there is the intimate story within it. I can understand why this movie could fail easily without these two people in it.
J. L.: –Thanks, Michael!
M. S.: –We are talking La La Land, right? (laughter).
Princess Leia and her distinctive hairstyle became the image that would recognize all over the world
The hair of two rolls from side to side characterized by the character princess Leia played by Carrie Fisher has become as iconic as the films themselves. What could have had its origin in the styles of the indigenous hopi (left) of Arizona, USA?. Photo: BBC World
they Are an icon of elegance.
When the fans of the War of the Galaxies began to flood social media with messages of grief following the death on Tuesday of actress Carrie Fisher, who played in the saga of the unforgettable character of Princess Leia, an image was repeated continuously: pictures of small girls smiling to the camera while you look stunning in your hair two perfect “cinnamon rolls”.
small used the same hairstyle popularized Fisher with the character who played 19 years of age.
Although the actress then did many more things in his career, Princess Leia, and his distinctive hairstyle came to become the image by which they should recognize in all over the world.
In 2014, Fisher told the magazine Time Out: “I am Leia and Leia is me. We are spliced because my life has been as a the of a cartoon, or superhero. At my age, it would be ridiculous if I had problems with that fact.”
But what of that hair style so particular, that only appeared in the first film, and that has inspired the imaginations of so many over the years? And, where did it came from?

according to Brandon Alinger, the author of The costume of Star Wars: The original trilogy, the rolls do not even appear in any of the concept drawings made for the character of Leia in preparation for the shoot.
In subsequent interviews, the creator of Star Wars, George Lucas, said that he had explored to the women of the Mexican Revolution, or “soldaderas”, that joined the popular uprising at the beginning of the TWENTIETH century.
“I leaned towards a woman’s style revolutionary southwest to the Pancho Villa, which is precisely that. The rolls are basically from the beginning of the century in Mexico”, said Lucas at the Time magazine in 2002.
it makes sense to explore this group of women when it comes to creating a character very far from the traditional princess waiting for rescue.

“George did not want a damsel in distress, did not want the princess stereotype. I wanted a fighter, I wanted someone independent,” explained Fisher to the BBC in 1977.
But there is a problem with the statement of Luke. Revolutionary women mexican are not known for their hairstyles or, at least, not this kind of hairstyles.
“as Well as I would like to say that the hairstyle of princess Leia was based on the ‘soldaderas’ of the Mexican Revolution, surely that was not the case,” she told the BBC Tabea Linhard, author of “The fearless women of the Mexican Revolution and the Spanish Civil War”.
“If you look at the photos of that time, you’ll see women with braids long, some with hats and, from time to time, cover their hair with a mantilla.
“the conditions in the field of battle were harsh and the work of the women included loading supplies, taking care of the needs of men, to serve as spies, or smugglers: some also participated in the battle.”
The double buns of the character of princess Leia, played by Carrie Fisher, have become as iconic as the movies. Photo: THE NATION / BBC World
“So that the hairdo of Leia was surely not a desirable option”.
however, the style seems to have roots in american history.
Kendra Van Cleave, Frock Flicks, a website that examines the accuracy of the costumes of historical films, told the BBC that, while this type of buns or rolls were the fashion in medieval Europe, the inspiration for “more obvious” is the style of “flower of zucchini” of the women of the hopi tribe, in Arizona.
he Pointed out that: “Consists of two arrangements side that aren’t buns really, they are more like the handles of hair.
“The hair has a stripe in the center, then wrap around a bow of wood in the shape of a U. The hair is wound along a figure of 8, tied at the half and stretched outwards to create two semi-circles.
The hairstyle was first worn by the unmarried women of hopi, Arizona. Photo: THE NATION / BBC World
“This hairstyle is spread much more widely in the early TWENTIETH century thanks to photography,” said Van Cleave, adding quegozó of a resurgence in the 1920s.
“of course, the 1920s were a time in which women of the western hemisphere were revolutionizing the traditional roles of gender. Women in the 20′s in the U.S. gained the right to vote and attended the university they were employed in numbers unprecedented.”
“Many of the women artistic and bohemian of the 1920′s adopted a fashion ‘ethnic’ as a way of manifesting their rejection of what is conventional and, therefore, as a statement of feminist,” noted Van Cleave.
But, of course, the style of the women of the hopi is earlier.
So, that probably was already used when Arizona was still part of Mexico, because the state only was annexed officially by the U.S. in 1848.

The chain of bakeries Cinnabon is specialized in the production of cinnamon rolls, but from there to use one of these cakes to draw the peculiar hairdo of Leia on a drawing made with cinnamon there is a big step. The tweet has aroused so much criticism that Cinnabon deleted it in less than an hour. [via Variety]
Allusions republican
No matter what your political orientation. To use the death of a person for advocacy of policy is not good. The tweet is still online.
Ramón espinar, secretary general of we Can in the community of Madrid had the same idea, with the same negative result.
music Promotion
The band american Smash Mouth has also brought its dose of criticism for stamping your logo on the image of the actress in the tweet of condolence.
Ask to 2016 not to have Betty White
Some took advantage of the death of Fisher to ask him to 2016 that you are not carrying anyone else. The actress Betty White, 94-year-old, became, by one day, the protagonist of numerous and picturesque sentences. Is ok, but not.
Retweeted the dog of Carrie Fisher
Carrie Fisher had a French bulldog named Gary. The dog has a Twitter account and published a message of condolence that has been retuiteado by thousands of people. Very tender, but the nuance is that the account is not for anything official or was created by the actress herself. It is just a account parody. On the other hand, I hate to have that be me that remember this, but the dogs did not write tweets.
The moral of all these tweets is the same. If you don’t like the character, don’t say anything simply out of respect. If you like, you can express your sadness about it, but to get too creative when writing condolences is usually counter-productive.
Bonus: The tweet of the controversial Santiago Segura
The film director, actor and producer Santiago Segura has also received a shower of criticism for posting the following tweet.
Some Twitter users expressed their discomfort with the photo chosen for Sure since you found sexist.
After receiving even a few insults on the part of the exalted turn, Santiago Segura decided to delete the tweet and replace it with one with a drawing of Princess Leia.
Part of the controversy is due to that many fans believe that Carrie Fisher hated that clothing for issues sexist. In reality, and as the actress herself stated on several occasions, what was wrong with the famous bikini of metal is that it was very uncomfortable to wear, but it passed when he was able to kill Jabba the Hutt with the garment put on the famous scene from Return of The Jedi. Fisher explained the evening to the Time magazine: "Yes, I liked the bikini of metal… I Hope to fit him yet!"
In this last case, the really sad thing is not the tweet of Santiago Segura, but that there are people able to be offended by this to the point of insulting to the actor.
Update: The program Save me
In the program Save me from Tele 5, the presenter Belén Rodríguez has come out dressed up as Princess Leia next to Belen Esteban.
No. It is not a joke by the December 28. Officially have that terrible taste.
