Titín lll(2)

National newspapers, newspapers where "pelota" is the number one sport. But we didn´t show the "closest" newspaper to the protagonist. We refer to La Rioja. They made a complete follow-up work about Titín, that ended with the pelotari visiting the newspaper.

Something is missing. The best is missing. The supplement that La Rioja dedicated to his most distinguished athlete. Complete. Beautiful.

Tintín lll (1)

He is from La Rioja. He´s 45 years old. He´s a "pelota" player. A forward. Titles, temperament, spectacle. Augusto Ibáñez, better known as Tintín, retired the 5th of October in his favorite court wall: Adagarra, in Logroño. His goodbye to the sport had an impact in national newspapers such as El Mundo, but mostly in those regional newspapers where "pelota" is one of the main sports. Like  El Diario Vasco, Diario de Navarra and El Correo.

Shakira and Piqué pick up mushrooms

A few days ago, some newspapers published that Piqué and Shakira had gone to pick up `bolets´ (mushrooms). Less impact had, unfortunately, this excellent piece of information published by La Vanguardia: 

And using Piqué´s presence in today´s entry as an excuse we show another story from the Catalonian newspaper. Because Piqué has a beard and he lives in Barcelona...

Ara: to keep

The task wasn´t easy. Lets start from the beginning: the National Art Museum of Catalonia (MNAC) has recently renew its collections. A few days ago,  La Vanguardia summarized it like this: "The museum becomes a reference center about the Civil War and modernism. The number of exhibited artworks increases from 600 to 1.300 while incorporating cinema, photography and posters. Gaudí and Jujol become the new stars. The collection explains the origins of modernism in a dense itinerary that reaches Dau al Se."

This geat bet has been followed by another one, carried out by the newspaper Ara: in its last Sunday edition, the newspaper replaced the pictures fot ilustrations, paintings, posters... that can be seen in the MNAC. We are going to show some pages, but first we need to thank Carlos Pérez de Rozas, who sent us a copy of this special edition:

Ebola

Hot news decide. In this entry we´ll show recent information, graphics, pictures that we though were interesting. Both, printed and online media. From Spanish and foreign media.

The first thing that is worth to present is the effort made by Spanish media to explain things through infographics. Lets see some examples from El Correo, El Mundo, ABC, La Vanguardia and El Pais.

These days we´ve also seen a fantastic picture from Samuel Aranda in the front-page of the New York Times; and, maybe, the cartoon —from André Carrilho— that best shows what´s happening:

In addition, we´ve found excellent pieces of information in digital media. This is a selection of 27 worth knowing:

Same town,two police

In Navarre, for weeks, a rumor has been circulating: local police will fit in Regional Police ("Policía Foral"). Natxo Gutiérrez is the author of this outstanding feature (in base and form) in Diario de Navarra: how is the day-to-day for both police in the town of Sangüesa.
