SPAIN

Easy Come Easy Go…Remember all that EU covid relief money the Juntas have been burning thru? Time to pay the piper! – The Airef asks the Treasury to bring together the autonomous regions to share out the €9,000 million adjustment demanded by Brussels: {Translation, summary}
– The independent fiscal authority (Airef) recommends the Treasury to agree as soon as possible on a fiscal adjustment plan to reduce the deficit and debt in which the level of effort that will be required of each administration is agreed with the autonomous communities. This is one of the main messages that the fiscal watchdog conveys in its report on the Initial Budgets of Public Administrations for 2024 published on Thursday.
– The president of the Airef, Cristina Herrero, recalled that 44% of public spending falls on the shoulders of the regional governments, so “it must be clear what is the distribution of commitments” between the different administrations and also how responsibility is shared if there is non-compliance.
– After four years of free spending, in 2024 it is time to open the melon of public finances. The new European fiscal rules will come into force next year and the deterioration of Spanish finances – with a debt of 108% of GDP and a deficit of 3.6% – puts the country on the list of those that will have to present adjustment plans to redress the situation.
– The independent fiscal authority (Airef) warns that Spain will have to make an adjustment of between 9,000 and 6,000 million euros each year to comply with the new framework.
– According to Airef estimates, neither the central government nor the autonomous communities will comply this year with the European recommendation not to increase primary expenditure net of revenue (i.e. without interest on debt) to 2.6%. In fact, the fiscal authority has worsened its deficit expectations for the autonomous communities.
– Despite all this, the Airef believes that Spain will be able to meet the deficit limits demanded by Brussels (a maximum of 3% of GDP) in 2025 and 2026. But after that date it estimates that, in the absence of adjustments, the country will once again fail to comply. Moreover, the effort Spain will have to make is greater, given that the new fiscal framework requires debt reduction to be firm and sustained over several years. To achieve this, the Airef estimates that Spain will have to propose an adjustment of either 9 billion a year for four years or around 6 billion over a period of seven years.

MALAGA PROVINCE

Malaga, next stop for the Google Maps car: {Translation, summary}
– The famous Google Maps car will return to Andalusia before the end of 2024, and Malaga will be one of its stops. Fifteen other Andalusian municipalities will be part of the new route of the Street View camera: Seville, Cadiz, Algeciras, Granada, Cordoba, Almeria, Roquetas de Mar, Jerez de la Frontera, Huelva, Dos Hermanas, Antequera, Lucena and Montilla. They also plan to visit the Autonomous City of Ceuta. Source, Spanish: https://www.malagahoy.es/malaga/Malaga-parada-coche-Google-Maps-2024_0_1892812541.html 

TORROX

Proceedings on the location of the electricity substation at Torrox Park closed: {Translation}
– The Malaga Provincial Prosecutor’s Office has agreed to dismiss and close the criminal investigation proceedings opened as a result of the complaint lodged by the residents’ platform against the project to build the electricity substation in the Torrox-Park urbanisation. The neighbours denounced the works before the Public Prosecutor’s Office for alleged offences against regional planning and the environment. In any case, after commissioning the corresponding reports to the Seprona of the Guardia Civil, and requesting documentation from the Torrox Town Hall and the company Sevillana-Endesa, which is promoting the project, the public prosecutor specialising in crimes against land use planning, historical heritage and the environment, has agreed, in a document to which Diario SUR has had access, to order the proceedings to be closed.
– The prosecutor notes, the newspaper adds, that the report of the Seprona of the Guardia Civil states that the works carried out “are covered by the corresponding urban planning licence and technical project, as well as the regional environmental authorisation”. It also confirms that the works affect an area of public hydraulic domain” and that a wall is being built to protect and defend against possible flooding of the public watercourse”. “There are no reports on possible effects on the flora and fauna in the area. In the nearby urban area there is a high voltage line that will be buried thanks to this new installation, according to the works manager,” adds the public prosecutor Fernando Benítez in his letter.
– According to the public prosecutor, “the Public Prosecutor’s Office cannot become a supervisory body for the actions of the administration, or of private individuals, in general, its intervention should be limited to those cases where there are reasonable indications of criminality, not to review the acts of the administration”.

NERJA

Nieves Atencia denies the agreement with the PSOE to declare Nerja as a stressed residential market area: {Translation}
– The councillor of the Popular Party of Nerja and responsible for Housing in the Town Hall, Nieves Atencia, has denied the statements of the secretary general of the PSOE, Patricia Gutiérrez, regarding the agreement reached with the municipal government of the PP to declare Nerja as a stressed residential market area.
– “The statements of Mrs. Gutiérrez are surprising because they do nothing but lie,” said Atencia, noting that “in the PP we have not reached any agreement with the Socialists, since the plenary session has not yet been held where their proposal will be discussed, to which we have also submitted an amendment saying that Nerja is not declared a stressed residential market area until the Junta de Andalucía makes the mandatory prior studies that support it.
– In this sense, the popular councillor has asked the PSOE Nerjeño and Mrs. Gutiérrez “more seriousness and political rigour”, and that “stop lying to the Nerjeños and Mareños and do not put the Popular Party in their lies.

MIDDLE EAST

G7 countries condemn Iran’s attack on Israel:
– Leaders of the G7 — the informal gathering of industrialized countries that includes the United States, United Kingdom and France — issued a statement Sunday “unequivocally condemning in the strongest terms Iran’s direct and unprecedented attack against Israel.” The statement came after the leaders met in a video conference hosted by the Italian presidency.
– “Iran fired hundreds of drones and missiles towards Israel. Israel, with the help of its partners, defeated the attack,” the statement reads. “We express our full solidarity and support to Israel and its people and reaffirm our commitment towards its security.”
– The group also stressed that Iran “with its actions, has further stepped toward the destabilization of the region and risks provoking an uncontrollable regional escalation.”
The G7 leaders said that scenario must be avoided.
– “We will continue to work to stabilize the situation and avoid further escalation. In this spirit, we demand that Iran and its proxies cease their attacks, and we stand ready to take further measures now and in response to further destabilizing initiatives,” they said.

HEALTH

CDC Forced To Release Hidden Covid-19 Injection Injury Reports Despite Attempts To Conceal Crucial Info From The Public:
– The agency was forced by a federal judge to disclose the reports. The judge dismissed the government’s arguments that processing the responses and redacting sensitive information would require too much work.
– The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has released previously hidden reports of facial paralysis and other adverse events following COVID-19 vaccination. The 780,000 reports were received shortly after the COVID-19 vaccines were rolled out and show that people experienced a wide range of post-vaccination problems, including heart inflammation, miscarriages, and seizures.
– “Loss of consciousness and seizure immediately following injection. Went to ER by ambulance,” one person reported. Another stated, “Diagnosed with Bells Palsy today due to left-sided facial numbness and paralysis.” People lodged the reports with V-safe, a text-message system created by the CDC to monitor for possible side effects of COVID-19 vaccines.
– The CDC, for years, declined to make the V-safe data public, instead publishing studies that described the reports as providing reassurance about the safety of the vaccines. However, according to data released in 2022 as a result of a different lawsuit, nearly 8 percent of the 10 million users required medical attention or hospital care after vaccination, and many others reported missing school, work, or other normal activities.
Other documents show that the CDC became aware of the vaccines possibly causing myocarditis, or heart inflammation, and a related condition called pericarditis early in 2021 but hid the knowledge from the public.

Hollywood has ‘Ozempic face’:
– You can look 10 years older after going all in on the slimming drug. The semaglutide craze is a global phenomenon, but among its unwanted side effects is a premature aging of the face. Health professionals have found themselves administering anti-aging treatments to an ever-younger clientele.
– Catherine Deneuve warned us when she herself was approaching 60: “At a certain age, you have to choose between your face or your ass.” A half century later, judging from the latest red carpets, it’s easy to tell that Hollywood has opted for the latter. At the Oscar gala earlier this month, host Jimmy Kimmel delivered the gag of the evening: “Everybody looks so great. When I look around this room, I can’t help but wonder ‘Is Ozempic right for me?’”
– For diabetics, the drug reduces blood sugar levels. But it also impacts appetite, which means that when you start injecting it, the pounds begin to drop off. That’s why many people who are not necessarily diabetic or obese are using it to slim down. In Spain, Social Security pays for the medicine when it is prescribed by a doctor in certain cases at a price of four doses for $4.59, though many opt for private healthcare, despite its higher price point: $141 for the same number of doses.

Tennis News- Alcaraz out, Nadal in, at Barcelona Open:
– Carlos Alcaraz will be unable to defend his title at the Barcelona Open Banc Sabadell after he was forced to withdraw from the ATP 500 due to a right arm injury.

Alcaraz will now hope to make his clay-court debut for 2024 at the Mutua Madrid Open, where he has also lifted the trophy in the past two years.

MMA News- Conor McGregor scheduled to fight Chandler at UFC 303 in June:
– Conor McGregor will return to the cage against Michael Chandler on June 29, three years after he broke his left leg during a fight against Dustin Poirier, Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) president Dana White said. The welterweight bout would headline the UFC 303 card in Las Vegas, White told reporters after Saturday’s UFC 300 event.
– Irishman McGregor (22-6) has not fought since the clean break in his tibia resulted in a second TKO loss to Poirier in a row in July 2021. The injury required the former UFC featherweight and lightweight champion to undergo surgery.
– Former Bellator lightweight champion Chandler (23-8) also lost to fellow American Poirier in his last fight in November 2022. Photo: Andrew Couldridge. Full article: https://www.reuters.com/sports/mcgregor-fight-chandler-ufc-303-june-says-white-2024-04-14/

New Source Of Copyright Free Images & Tunes! – AI-Startup Launches Ever-Expanding Library of Free Stock Photos and Music:
– What if someone created a stock photo website pre-populated with over a million high-quality royalty-free images? And what if we could freely use the photos from that site because they’re all in the public domain? That would be great.
Enter: StockCake
https://stockcake.com/
– StockCake is a new platform by AI startup Imaginary Machines. The site currently hosts more than a million pre-generated images. These images can be downloaded, used, and shared for free. There are no strings attached as all photos are in the public domain.
– The site is aimed at people who want instant stock images for their websites, social media, or any other type of presentation.

The tracks that are listed by catagory can be used free of charge and without attribution. You can audition the songs on the website, and download those you want. Most appear to be clips, so you may need to add your own fade-in & fade-outs.
