It is the best series of ‘Star Wars’, and in the face of its second season, Disney has uploaded its first episodes free of free

It is possibly the best that will give us’Star Wars‘In 2025 (and beyond, possibly), so it has all the meaning that Disney is taking care of this premiere to the extreme of promoting it with a few free episodes. Specifically the first three of the initial season of ‘Andor‘, that You can enjoy free on YouTube (Yes, in original version with subtitles only in English). This arrival has coincided with the premiere of the series in Hulu in the United States, something that does not affect us in Europe but demonstrates that Disney knows what is brought between hands. ‘Andor’ is a series acclaimed by criticism and public, and that has been celebrated to recover the little solemn style and with a mixture of genres (Here, a very curious mixture of prison leaks and robbery film) that has characterized the best moments of the franchise since the late seventies. A gift that helps us to refresh the memory with the history of this rebel to her, set about five years before what we saw in ‘Rogue One’, that is, we are in the early days of that rebel alliance that we would see in the first trilogy of Star Wars, with a series of events that will lead to the theft of the plans of the Death Star. Andor is a thief who will end up becoming a spy and, finally, into a key piece to trigger the rebel movement against the empire. Without a doubt, what makes ‘Andor’ one of the key series of ‘Star Wars’ is introduce ourselves to a series of characters with many gray nuances: Neither heroes nor villains, many believe in the rebel movement, others are ready for their own interests, and we will see how their behaviors and ideals evolve realistically. A characteristic that will undoubtedly remain in the expected second (and last) season of the series, which has already made history within the franchise.

a year in which the company will take more risks than ever

What would be a competent collection for any other film, in the case of ‘Mickey 17’ has become Judgment of a dark future: 19 million dollars in the United States compared to 118 (not counting marketing and distribution expenses) it has cost. The Bong Joon Ho Oscar for ‘Parasitos’ has not encouraged an audience to which nothing is not to interest a sequel or a franchise delivery. ‘Mickey 17’ thus opens a hairy year for a company, Warner, who is not for many shocks. Warner, the one who awaits you. The company remains The second one that spends the most in production after Disneyalthough it is very far from matching its income (even in a year without ‘Star Wars’ in Cinemas and with only a Marvel movie -‘Deadpool and Wolverine‘-, Disney did not stop chaining successes in 2024, with’ Vaiana 2 ‘,’Upside down 2‘and’ mufasa ‘). However, in its 2025 calendar there are three films with a confirmed budget higher than that of ‘Mickey 17’, a unveiled budget but will undoubtedly exceed it (‘Superman‘, for July) and another that will approach him a lot (‘ Mortal Kombat 2 ‘, in October). Other blockbusters. Those other films that are already confirmed that they will exceed the budget of ‘Mickey 17’ are ‘a Minecraft movie’, of premiere in April and with no less than 150 million budget; The adaptation of Thomas Pynchon directed by Paul Thomas Anderson and Leonardo DiCaprio and Sean ‘One Battle After Another’, for August and with 140 million budget; And, above all, the mastodontic formula 1 epic with Brad Pitt ‘F1’, directed by Joseph Kosinski, signatory of ‘Top Gun: Maverick’, with some overwhelming 300 million budget. To round, bets such as the horror movie ‘Sinners’, with 90 million budget for April. Few franchises … We must praise this Warner plan that almost none of them belong to franchises or sequelae or REBOOTS (Let’s compare with Disney’s 2025 plan: ‘Snow White’, ‘Thunderbolts‘,’ Lilo and Stitch ‘,’Fantastic four‘,’ Freakier Friday ‘,’ Tron: Ares ‘,’ Predator: Badlands ‘,’ Zootropolis 2 ‘,’Avatar: fire and ash‘…). But the knocker of ‘Mickey 17’ makes perhaps, precisely that is not the most flattering of the perspectives for Warner. That, in addition, he is thinking of shooting a franchise with ‘Minecraft’ …. just the one that has some first advances that They have been lousy received. … But there is. But we are talking about a Majorand as such you have to fold the rules of the mainstream. That at this time, they impose that franchises reign. Warner has many and very profitable (and, above all, somewhat cheaper than ‘Dune‘ either ‘Godzilla‘, that do not go out to dance this year), and that they can surprise with blockbusters in exchange for very discreet investments. To the most expensive of all of them, ‘Mortal Kombat’ (the first installment cost a little less than 100 million) adds the recovery of ‘final destination’ and ‘Warren file’. The first one comes from a saga two decades ago, and it is still an enigma if it is a good idea to recover it. The second is a guaranteed success, and although it has been in fallow for years, we must not forget the very profitable war. Before all this was a field. There is a lot of talk about how Warner has cut expenses in recent yearsespecially in his television faction, but we must not forget that around him other producers have been falling. Apple had claims to become a Major and has produced films like ‘Napoleon’ or ‘Argylle’, blockbusters at the height of any rival, and has had to reculate. And with the post-pandemic netflix we have seen very high investments that have not set in products such as’Rebel Moon‘, And a bet this week,’Electric status‘, that if it does not work (and the first impressions are very negative) can start with a stage of radical cuts on the platform. From that perspective, Warner is not doing so bad. A project like ‘F1’, of 300 million budget plus what they are left in marketing, is only available to one of the last great studies of Hollywood. As much as it staggers. Header | Warner In Xataka | Warner has a problem with the new Harry Potter series: JK Rowling’s opinions

A shadow of what it was. When Amazon was going to acquire Irobot, the assessment of the Roomba was 1.4 billion dollars. Its current market value is only 200 million dollars, seven times less. Pending debt. The investment firm Carlyle Group INC provided Irobot a loan of 200 million dollars in 2023. At that time the accounts did not have left, and that money allowed Irobot to have some liquidity while the acquisition of Amazon was managed. Not closing the operation, Carlyle can now collect terrible interests for Irobot: 9%. Too much competition.

The EU has a weapon in the war of tariffs with the US and is to direct them to Republican states

The EU will respond to The tariffs of the US with the same currency. Or rather, with the same policy, applying a curious law of the talion that from Brussels summary of form Simple but resounding: “Euro per euro, dollar per dollar.” After seeing how Donald Trump pressed on Wednesday the tariff red button, activating 25% rates To imports of European aluminum and steel, the European Commission has decided to replicate by applying taxes worth 26,000 million euros to a long list of American goods. The figure (26,000) is overwhelming, but the most interesting thing is what it hides. The EU has decided “hit where it hurts” to Trump, penalizing products that in many cases leave Great Folders of Republican votes. The goal is evident: press Trump from outside … and from within. A word: tariffs. To Trump He likes tariffs. He has openly recognized it, even as a White House candidate, when assured That ‘Tariff’ is, in his opinion, “the most beautiful word in the dictionary.” In the 50 scarce days He has sitting in the Oval Office has repeated that word a few times, many. Sometimes for disdain in addition. Others, Like this weekto announce a turn in the US policy towards certain foreign goods. On Wednesday the Republican Impulse 25% tariffs to all steel and aluminum imported to the US, a measure that connects with similar ones of his first mandate and that he has not laid anything well in Canada or the EU, who have already decided to play their own letters to respond. In the case of the EU, the European Commission announced yesterday “countermeasures” that will basically translate in applying tariffs worth 26,000 million of euros to certain US exports. What does Brussels plan? Use the stick and carrot. Yesterday the president of the CE, Úrsula von der Leyen, insisted In the importance of commercial relations between the EU and USA, the “harmful” effect of the encumbrances and their hand lying to Washington, but with them he announced EU’s plans to replicate Trump with tariff 26,000 million of euros. Moreover, he has already decided how he will: the EU will advise the coup throughout April, in two phases. On April 1 he will reactivate the “countermeasures” that he had already activated between 2018 and 2020, after Trump’s first government had Increased your rates also unilaterally. That punishment package that Brussels wants to recover It was suspended After the arrival of Joe Biden to the White House and, according to the EU calculationswill now serve to respond to economic damage worth 8,000 million euros caused by US tariffs. The second Brussels movement will reach mid -April (to be precise on the 13th) and will seek to counteract the damage worth another 18,000 million euros that, again According to EU calculationswill have the new Trump tariffs in European exports. Between one and the others they will add 26,000 million. That this last “countermelted” later has an explanation: it is new and before Brussels wants to have it well tied with the 27 EU countries. That’s all? No. von der Leyen argues That the EU wanted to be equitable in its replica: “Since the US applies tariffs worth $ 28,000 million, we respond with countermeasures worth 26,000 million euros,” he alleges. However, there is something so or even more important than those figures: what are applied to. The EC has decided to refine the shot and direct its punishment to certain US goods that can be sensitive to Trump for a very simple reason: they leave states that They support it at the polls, to him and the Republican party. “Hit where it hurts”. A senior EU official summarized it clearly (and forcefully) yesterday in statements a The Guardian: “We try to hit where it hurts.” In the American merchandise list that has the CE in the spotlight, which can be Consult onlinethere are motorcycles, whiskey, wine, honey, meat, cheese … a long payroll of products in which Some experts They have already seen some intentionality. For example, it affects iconic products, with a symbolic value, such as Harley-Davidon motorcycles or The Bourbona wiski with an important roots in the US. The importance of soybeans. The same source that spoke with The Guardian I quoted Another clear example: soybeans, interesting for several reasons. The first is its commercial weight. At least in 2019 it was The main supplier of soy of Europe, far ahead of Brazil, the second supplier. The specialized magazine PROGRESIVE FARMERbased in Alabama, points that Europe buys about 6.5 million metric tons of soybean exports and soy flour with a value of around 3,000 million dollars. Despite this bond the same source of Brussels assured The Guardian that for the EU would not mean any trauma to look for the supply in another market. “We love soybeans, but we are gladly bought from Brazil, Argentina or any other lujar,” reason. A year ago the EU has already raised sensitively The amount of Brazilian soy. The third factor that makes soybeans a sensitive merchandise for Trump, in addition to its weight in the commercial flow with Europe and the possibility of buying it in other countries is where it occurs in the US. Looking at the Republican Party. Soybean is one of the goods more relevant in agricultural exports to the EU. And a state relevant In the cultivation of American soybeans it is Louisiana, a territory especially sensitive For Donald Trump’s game. From there is the Republican Mike Johnsonthe president of the House of Representatives. Luisiana is also one of the states that was dyed red (Republican color) during the presidential elections of 2024, just like Iowa, Indiana, Missuri, Ohio or the two Dakotas. Everyone has more than having facilitated Trump’s access to the White House: they also stand out in The soy map United States. “Smart” tariffs.

It turns out that the myth that marriage fattens is true. But only for men

There is a preconceived and quite widespread idea that relates marriage to accumulating kilos. Well now a group of researchers has contrasted that this prejudice with respect to the marriage union is correct. Or at least correct. An unequal effect. A new study has observed that the risk of obesity increases significantly in men after marriage. It triples, in fact. The same study, however, did not find a significant change in this probability in the case of women. Of course, the risk of developing overweight did increase in both groups. The results must still be interpreted with some caution because the details of the study have not yet passed the scrutiny of peer review and publication in a scientific journal. Those responsible for the work will be presented by this spring in the 32nd European Congress on Obesity that will be held in Malaga in May. Why do we get fat? The question of why we get fat can have many answers. The simplest is that our body absorbs more calories than it burns, so stores energy in the form of fat. However, this is only part of the story: there are many genetic, environmental or socioeconomic factors that we know are, the less, correlated with our risk of developing overweight or obesity throughout our lives. Little by little we verify that marriage is one of them. 3.2 times higher risk. The study indicated that marriage multiplied by 3.2 the risk of men to develop obesity, while the effect of this union was not significant in the case of women. The risk analysis to develop overweight showed a less marked difference. The team responsible for the study observed A 62% increase in the risk of overweight in the case of men. A risk that in the case of women stayed at 39%. Multiple factors. The study analyzed other factors linked to this relationship, which showed other connections of interest. It was thus observed that some factors affected the risk of obesity in the case of women. For example, depression caused the risk to be folded, while lack of health in terms of health also increased risk in women by 43%. This type of factors and interconnections helps us understand what is happening behind the data. Even so, the hypotheses are diverse (and complementary). For example, Less physical activity by men And social pressure in the case of women can help us understand the unequal phenomenon. “Research also suggests that men may have greater propensity to gain weight after marriage due to factors such as an increase in portions, social meals, and a decrease in physical activity; while women may remain more aware of weight due to social pressures ” He pointed to the British newspaper The Guardian Katharine Jenner, director of Obesity Health Alliance. Also age of age. Another important factor to take into account was that of age, as it could foresee. The study showed that age affected the probability of developing overweight and obesity, and that in this case the effect was greater in women than in men. Thus, for example, the risk of obesity increased by 3% per year in the case of men and 4% per year in the case of women. Understanding the context. Understanding the effect of factors such as marriage can help us develop more effective policies to address obesity and overweight, with the ultimate goal of addressing public health problems such as the increase in some non -transmissible diseases for which obesity and overweight are risk factors.

Tonight we have a moon eclipse and with him a phenomenon surrounded by panic and superstitions: the “blood moon”

An eclipse occurs when an astronomical body blocks another. The effect is usually the total or partial darkening of this second body. However, in some lunar eclipses, the shadow projected by the earth does not completely obscure the satellite but “dye” red. They are blood moons, and this morning we may have the opportunity to see one. Eclipse. This morning A total moon eclipse will occur which will carry the so -called “blood moon”, a darkening and redness of our satellite caused by the transit of the earth between this and the sun. The total eclipse will be visible throughout Latin America and can also be seen from the center and western the Iberian Peninsula and from the Canary Islands. The rest of the Spanish territory can only see an eclipse Penumbral de Luna. The gloom will begin to obscure the moon in Spain Around 5 in the morningPeninsular time (CET), but the partial eclipse will not begin until after 6 in the morning. The eclipse will reach the totality at 07:26 CET, at which time the moon will also be reddened in its path after the earth. Blood moon? This is the phenomenon known as Blood moon and it is common in lunar eclipses. Although it may seem contradictory, this color change is produced by the same phenomenon that gives blue to our heavens. Let’s start with the most basic. The moon lighting is because it reflects sunlight. The light that emanates the sun, although we associate it with yellowish or orange tones is, in reality, white. This target is actually the result of the fact that the sun emits light in a wide range of frequencies in the visible spectrum, whose sum generates white light. This fan of colors is what we can see in the rainbow or when we pass sunlight through a prism. Guilt of the atmosphere. When this white and multicolored light reaches the terrestrial atmosphere, This breaks it down as if it were a prism. The blue light, with a shorter wavelength, tends to spread when crossing with the gases of the atmosphere, bouncing and reaching our perspective as if it arrived from the sky. However, the longest wavelengths, reddish tones, They blur to a lesser extent and continue on their way. This makes the shadow of our planet project a kind of reddish ring around. It is this ring is what gives that copper color to the blood moon. This interaction between the solar rays and the atmosphere of our planet is also responsible for the sunrises and sunsets also becoming red. When the sun rises or puts on, its rays must cross a greater portion of atmosphere. This means that when they reach our environment they have lost dispersed the short wavelengths, that is, the blue tones. This leaves only the most reddish tones of these moments of the day. From superstition to science. If eclipses have always been surrounded by mystery and superstitions, the ominous red -dyed moon did not go unnoticed by our ancestors. Different cultures have developed various superstitions and beliefs related to this phenomenon. Today we know the cause of the unique phenomenon. Although the blood moon may have lost this mysticism, its spectacularity can still be appreciated. Preamble of a solar eclipse. Solar eclipses always come from a lunar eclipse that occurs about two weeks before or after this. The eclipse of this morning is one of these dual eclipses. And is that March 29 A partial solar eclipse will be produced that will be visible in part of the northern hemisphere, including Spain.

The Belgian police stop Huawei representatives for alleged corruption in the Eurocamara. The EU investigates the Chinese plot

The Belgian police have made records at the European headquarters of Huawei in Brussels and has arrested several of its lobists for alleged corruption of Eurodiputados, as progress Reuters. What happened? The Belgian Prosecutor’s Office has deployed a hundred agents in almost two dozen places in Belgium and Portugal as part of an investigation for alleged bribery, falsification of documents and money laundering. The researchers have seized two offices in the European Parliament belonging to supposedly involved parliamentary assistants. Why is it important. This case threatens to become a second ‘Qatargate‘, the scandal that shook the Eurocamara in 2022 when several legislators were accused of receiving bribes from Qatar and Morocco. New research can seriously damage the credibility of European institutions, already weakened after that episode. Between bambalins. According to Belgian media, the plot of bribes would have operated “regularly and very discreetly from 2021 to the present, under the appearance of lobby Commercial. “The researchers They suspect that about fifteen Eurodiputados – actual and ancient – could be involved. In detail. Corrupt practices, according to Politicalthey would have included: Remuneration for adopting favorable political positions to Huawei. Excessive gifts, such as meals and travel expenses. Recurring invitations to football matches. The context. Huawei, which once was a power of lobby In Europe, he has suffered blows in recent years due to the security risks associated with his links with the Chinese government. The European Commission He has repeatedly warned that the company represents “materially higher risks than other 5G suppliers”. The European Parliament has confirmed that it will cooperate “quickly” with the Belgian authorities in the investigation. Meanwhile, Victor Negrescu, vice president of Parliament for transparency and anti -corruption, has described the accusations as “deeply worrisome.” The answer. A spokesman for Huawei has limited himself to declare that the company is “investigating” what happened and that “it is committed to compliance with all the applicable laws and regulations of the countries and regions in which it operates.” The Eurodiputados involved could see the lifting of their parliamentary immunity if the investigation progresses, a process that requires the authorization of the president of the Eurocamara, Roberta Metsola.
