February 1, 2019
ON THE TOWN
Restaurants and bars, movies, theater, dance, sports arenas, even the home… Keep abreast of what’s going on where, and how you can have the greatest fun.
A SECOND OPINION: “The Wife” Wins Top Awards!
"The Wife"'s premise is quite relevant to our world today in which women are caught in traditional roles while reaching to shine with their own light. (Taking a back seat has been the way most women have dealt with the male hierarchy over the year.) It is not strictly a feminist film, but rather a tender study in the reality of women’s lives still today. Recommended viewing.
TRADE FAIR FEVER 2019
FITUR: The aim was to recognise the work carried out by tourism companies, professional researchers, small businesses in the travel sector, airlines, high speed rail, coach bus corporations and Journalists to boost the image of the industry, and creating new opportunities
A Second Opinion: Time Enough for Love
You can't get through February without celebrating Valentine's Day on the 14th if you have a "significant other" in your life. Now, all this fuss about love may seem strange to the modern millennials who may feel they have a more sophisticated relationship with their partners. But a little old-fashioned Romance never hurt a budding connection between a Man and a Woman
AMERICAN CLUB GALA INVITE!
ACM hopes to have you with them on their 67th Anniversary! Date: 16 March 2019. Time: 8 PM. Place: Hotel InterCon

SPAIN & THE EU STAND BY A DEMOCRATIC VENEZUELA
President of the Spanish Government: "The common position of the EU in regard to the political crisis in Venezuela has been achieved on the initiative of the Government of Spain. The ties that unite Spain and Latin America are very deep. There is nothing that takes place there which does not affect us. That is why the Spanish government will work to ensure that full democracy returns to Venezuela"
BARCELONA: Is Uber the Problem? Are Taxis the Problem? Is Change Unwelcome?
Uber has become a sensational platform to many ordinary, business, and celebrity people. It has created a fundamental possibility for anyone to get to their destination at the press of a button, cash not necessary. It also provides a stiff competition for taxis. And that's the trouble, at least for the cab drivers who went on strike in Barcelona (later in Madrid). But how asbout the Uber users?

TITANIC ALLIANCE GANGS UP ON BILLIONAIRE BEZOS
The accord between El Corte Inglés, benchmark of Spanish commerce, and Alibaba, the digital giant from China, is welcomed by both partners with such a great enthusiasm one would think it was marriage made in heaven. El Corte Inglés press releases are rosy and replete with optimism. The partners present the accord as the answer to Jeff Bezos’ dominant position in global e-commerce.
THE PLIGHT OF WEED CLUBS WITHIN THE GREY AREA OF SPANISH LAW
Although it is illegal to possess or sell marijuana in a public area, club owners can obtain licenses to operate private associations to smoke and sell weed. But operating within this space creates a multitude of problems for club owners looking to advance their business. Be that as it may, private weed clubs in Madrid are on the rise. Per some estimates, Madrid will surpass Barcelona, where there are currently over 300 private clubs, as the weed capital of Spain by 2020.

A Second Opinion: Oh, those wonderful Rebajas de Enero!
I have been accused of being a miser, but I prefer to consider myself "thrifty"! I figure why pay more when you can pay less? With my attitude, I'd never make it in the fashion scene in New York or London or Paris. Maybe Madrid is more forgiving!

WHO WOULD KIDS RATHER HAVE, SANTA OR THE MAGI?
Chances are that Spanish children would have both The Magi and Santa! Think about it, two bountiful bearers of gifts instead of just one, from the East and from the West, and the Royals coming right on the jovial heels of Ho Ho Ho!

This category, however, goes beyond Madrid; it embraces stories of what occurred, are occurring, and will probably occur in the Spanish nation whose capital is Madrid.

Imagine a place without them. Paradise recouped
