Sánchez begins meetings today in search of support for his investiture. They expect days of give and take. But just beginning the school year, it is the mobile phone that is called into question: violent sex is advancing in school chat rooms.

Note: seven very special wines. “Little is said about women in the world of wine,” it is stressed today, although there are several outstanding wineries led by women; oenologists and viticulturists DO Ribera del Duero, Rioja or Penedès that you need to know.

“The goriest Cuba.” Discovering it barely requires a walk through Havana with the three authors behind Carmen Mola's signature, mixing past (and salaried settlers, for example) and present. La Vanguardia attends the meeting.

Deborah García Bello, chemist, researcher of materials applied to art. “The color blue has been more expensive than gold for centuries.” Read it here.
