Spain has thousands of charming towns in all parts of the country, but this year Potes, in Cantabria, is taking center stage.

España cuenta con miles de pueblos con encanto en todas las zonas del país, pero este año el protagonismo se lo lleva Potes, en Cantabria.

This small town in the Liébana region has been recognized as the Capital of Rural Tourism 2020 by the Rural Getaway portal.

Esta pequeña localidad de la comarca del Liébana se ha alzado con el reconocimiento de Capital del Turismo Rural 2020 que otorga el portal Escapada Rural.

Potes has imposed itself against nine other towns, among which were Colombres (Asturias) or Artenara (Gran Canaria).

Located just over 100 kilometers from Santander, Potes is located at the confluence of the four valleys of the region and is surrounded by mountains, giving travelers a spectacular green landscape.

Situado a algo más de 100 kilómetros de Santander, Potes se ubica en la confluencia de los cuatro valles de la comarca y está rodeado de montañas, regalando a los viajeros un paisaje verde espectacular.

And it is known as the town of bridges for the many buildings of the time that cross the Quiviesa river, which runs through the town.

Y es que se la conoce como la villa de los puentes por las muchas construcciones de la época que cruzan el río Quiviesa, que atraviesa el pueblo.

Another of its architectural jewels is the Torre del Infantado, today dedicated to exhibitions, or the Monastery of Santo Toribio de Liébana, on the outskirts of the town.

As in all Cantabria, gastronomy plays a fundamental role in Potes.

Como en toda Cantabria, la gastronomía juega un papel fundamental en Potes.

The star dish of the municipality, and of the entire region, is the Lebaniego stew, which consists of collard greens, jerky or meat, stuffing and chickpeas.

El plato estrella del municipio, y de toda la comarca, es el cocido lebaniego, que se compone de berza, cecina o carne, relleno y garbanzos.

This legume is the key to the recipe for the variety of chickpea in the area, very small and tender, with great flavor.

River fish such as trout or salmon are also of high quality, such as artisan cheeses made in the area.

Los pescados de río como las truchas o los salmones también son de gran calidad, como los quesos artesanos que se elaboran en la zona.

The Liébana cheese is a good example of this, especially the smoked variety.

Long ago, when I was a journalist with Foinse I learned a good lesson -.

Fadó fadó, nuair a bhí mé i m’iriseoir le Foinse d’fhoghlaim mé ceacht maith –.

READING AND WRITING: A column about literature and creative writing.

LÉAMH AGUS SCRÍOBH: Colún faoin litríocht agus faoin scríbhneoireacht chruthaitheach.

This week writers would also like to assume that the publishing industry is moving at a glacier pace (before climate change) Writers are almost always in a hurry of trying to reach a deadline.

An tseachtain seo bheadh sé chomh maith ag scríbhneoirí glacadh leis go ngluaiseann tionscal na foilsitheoireachta ar luas oighearshrutha (roimh an athrú aeráide) Bíonn deifir ar scríbhneoirí nach mór i gcónaí agus iad de shíor ag iarraidh spriocdháta éigin a bhaint amach.

However, patience is one of the most basic skills that one has to develop if one wants to survive on the pen.

Mar sin féin, tá an fhoighid ar cheann de na scileanna is bunúsaí a bhíonn ar dhuine a fhorbairt má theastaíonn uaidh maireachtáil ar an bpeann.

Why?

Cén fáth?

When the deadline is reached, the wait begins.

Nuair a bhíonn an spriocdháta bainte amach, tosaíonn an fanacht.

Long ago, when I was a full-time journalist with the newspaper Foinse, all the staff had to work late on Thursday nights.

Fadó fadó, nuair a bhí mé i m’iriseoir lánaimseartha leis an nuachtán Foinse, bhíodh ar an bhfoireann ar fad obair go mall oíche Déardaoin.

There was a particular rush in the office on those nights: we all strive to get the newspaper ready in time for it to be sent to the printers.

Bhíodh bús ar leith san oifig na hoícheanta sin: muid ar fad ar ár míle dícheall an nuachtán a fháil réidh in am le go bhféadfaí é a sheoladh chuig na clódóirí.

The Friday I killed.

An Aoine a mharaíodh mé.

Foinse was not in the shops until Saturday and I could hardly wait to read the paper I had written that week.

Ní bhíodh Foinse sna siopaí go dtí an Satharn agus is ar éigean a d’fhéadainn fanacht go dtí go léifeadh lucht léitheoireachta an pháipéir a raibh scríofa agam an tseachtain sin.

But if diligent young journalists need patience, fiction and non-fiction writers, poets, and anyone else who wants to publish a book need two, three, or a hundred times more research.

Ach má bhíonn foighid ag teastáil ó iriseoirí óga díograiseacha, bíonn a dhá, a thrí, nó a chéad oiread foighde ag teastáil ó scríbhneoirí ficsin agus neamhfhicsin, ó fhilí, agus ó éinne eile a bheadh ag iarraidh leabhar a fhoilsiú.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: the publishing industry moves at a glacial pace (before climate change.) It is often a year or more between the day a writer finishes the last draft and the day that the final that work in the shops.

Tá sé ráite agam roimhe seo agus déarfaidh mé arís é: gluaiseann tionscal na foilsitheoireachta ar luas oighearshrutha (roimh an athrú aeráide.) Is minic a théann bliain nó os a cionn thart idir an lá a gcríochnaíonn scríbhneoir an dréacht deireanach agus an lá go mbíonn an saothar sin sna siopaí.

It's been five months now since I sent the last draft of a novel to my literary agent in the Netherlands.

Tá sé ag tarraingt ar chúig mhí anois ó chuir mé an dréacht deireanach d’úrscéal chuig mo ghníomhaire liteartha san Ísiltír.

I received a brief note from her a week or two after I sent her the draft saying that she had received the draft and that I would hear it when she had read it, but I am still waiting for it.

Fuair mé nóta gairid uaithi seachtain nó dhó tar éis dom an dréacht a chur chuici ina ndúirt sí go raibh an dréacht faighte aici agus go gcloisfinn uaithi nuair a bheadh sé léite aici,

Dúirt Céad Aire an Tuaiscirt,Arlene Foster go bhfuil damáiste mhór déanta den chaidreamh i bhFeidhmeannas Stormont a bhuíochas den chonspóid atá tarraingt ag sochraid Bobby Storey i mBéal Feirste Dé Máirt seo caite.

The PSNI is investigating an alleged breach of public health provisions relating to Covid-19 at the event.

Tá fiosrúchán ar bun ag an PSNI maidir le líomhaintí gur sáraíodh forálacha sláinte poiblí bainteach le covid 19 ag an ócáid.

Accordingly, Arlene Foster is calling for Sinn Féin Vice President Michelle O'Neill to stand aside while the inquiry is underway.

Dá réir, tá Arlene Foster ag iarraidh go seasfadh Leas-Uachtarán Shinn Féin, Michelle ONeill go leataobh fad is atá an fiosrúchán ar bun.

Arlene Foster ag léiriú a míshástachta faoin gconspóid Bhí Michelle ONeill i láthair ag an tsochraid, i dteannta Uachtarán Shinn Féin Mary Lou McDonald.

Earlier Michelle O'Neill said in a statement that she would not attend the funeral if Covid-19 regulations prevented her from doing so.

Níos túisce dúirt Michelle ONeill i ráiteas nach bhfreastalódh sí ar an tsochraid dá gcoscfadh rialacháin covid 19 sin a dhéanamh.

She said that she had listened carefully to the voices of those who had lost loved ones during this health crisis, and regretted if she had hurt them in any way.

Dúirt sí gur éist sí go cúramach le glórtha na ndaoine a chaill gaolta le linn na géarchéime sláinte seo, agus go raibh aiféala uirthi má ghoill sí ar aon bhealach orthu.

However, Arlene Foster said this evening that Michael O'Neill's statement was inadequate, that she had breached public health provisions and should stand aside.

Dúirt Arlene Foster tráthnóna áfach nach leor an ráiteas ó Mhichelle ONeill, go raibh forálacha maidir le sláinte phoiblí sáraithe aici agus gur chóir di seasamh go leataobh.

Michelle O'Neill has said that she is not going to do that.

Tá sé ráite ag Michelle ONeill nach bhfuil sí chun sin a dhéanamh.

Sinn Féin President Mary Lou McDonald also spoke about the controversy today.

Labhair Uachtarán Shinn Féin, Mary Lou McDonald freisin faoin gconspóid inniu.

She said she realized people were shocked by the images of large crowds at Bobby Storey's funeral.

Gardaí to supervise public houses.

Gardaí le maoirsiú a dhéanamh ar thithe tabhairne.

An Garda Síochána is due to start supervising pubs nationally from this afternoon onwards to ensure that they are complying with rules on the prevention of the spread of the virus.

Tá an Garda Síochána le tús a chur le maoirsiú ar thithe tabhairne go náisiúnta ó tháthnóna inniu amach lena chinntiú go bhfuil siad ag cloí le rialacha maidir le leathadh an choróinvíris a chosc.

Concerns have been expressed by the public and business representatives that the rules are not being adhered to properly in certain pubs since they reopened at the beginning of this week.

Deirtear go bhfuil imní á léiriú ón bpobal agus ó ionadaithe lucht gnó nach bhfuiltear ag cloí leis na rialacha mar is ceart i dtithe tabhairne áirithe ó athosclaíodh iad arís ag tús na seachtaine seo.

A code will be sent to the Director of Public Prosecutions for any center allegedly in breach of the rules.

Cuirfear cód chuig Stiúrthóir na nIonchúiseamh Poiblí i gcás aon ionad a deirtear atá ag sárú na rialacha.

Overnight sex and new normality: keys in the era of the coronavirus.

Sexo de una noche y nueva normalidad: claves en la era del coronavirus .

A 2017 survey of 500 Americans and 500 Europeans by Zava, an online medical service, found that 66% of participants had had overnight sex at least once in their lives.

Una encuesta de 2017 a 500 estadounidenses y 500 europeos realizada por Zava, un servicio médico online, descubrió que el el 66% de los participantes habían tenido sexo de una noche al menos una vez en su vida.

But how comfortable would these people feel now with the emergence of the coronavirus and the new risks it poses to health? For starters, remember that the virus is transmitted primarily through respiratory droplets emitted when an infected person sneezes, coughs, breathes, or speaks.

Pero ¿cómo de cómoda se sentiría esa gente ahora con la irrupción del coronavirus y los nuevos riesgos que supone para la salud? Para empezar, hay que recordar que el virus se transmite sobre todo a través de gotículas respiratorias emitidas cuando una persona infectada estornuda, tose, respira o habla.

Since sex by definition involves close physical contact — kissing and rapid breathing, among other things — the risk of spreading the virus like this cannot be overlooked.

Dado que el sexo por definición implica contacto físico cercano —besos y respiración acelerada, entre otras cosas—, el riesgo de difundir así el virus no se puede pasar por alto.

Because, although there have been cases of coronavirus in semen, there is no conclusive evidence that it is a route of transmission.

Porque, aunque se han dado casos de coronavirus en el semen, no existen pruebas concluyentes de que sea una vía de contagio.

Despite the fact that Spain is already adapting to the new normal, it is still important to keep your distance, and probably will continue to be so until an effective treatment or vaccine is developed.

Pese a que España ya está adaptándose a la nueva normalidad, sigue siendo importante guardar las distancias, y probablemente siga siendo así hasta que se desarrolle un tratamiento efectivo o una vacuna.

This implies staying two meters from anyone who does not live in your house and continuing to wear a mask when it is not possible to maintain this distance.

Eso implica permanecer a dos metros de cualquier persona que no viva en tu casa y seguir llevando mascarilla cuando no sea posible mantener esta distancia.

However, many singles are unwilling to forget about sex until the pandemic is over.

No obstante, muchos solteros no están dispuestos a olvidarse del sexo hasta que pase la pandemia.

"I don't think it's reasonable to demand of him."

“No creo que sea razonable exigírsel.”

, admits Dr. David Bell, a specialist in adolescent medicine and associate professor at Columbia University (New York).

, admite el doctor David Bell, especialista en medicina adolescente y profesor asociado en la Universidad de Columbia (Nueva York).

"It is in human nature to need contact, sex and physical intimacy."

“Está en la naturaleza humana necesitar contacto, sexo e intimidad físic.”

And how is this pandemic going to change casual sex? Read on to find out.

'Important schools open at the end of August'-Taoiseach.

Tábhachtach scoileanna oscailte ag deireadh Lúnasa-Taoiseach.

Taoiseach Michael Martin said that it is important that schools are open as normal at the end of August.

Dúirt an Taoiseach Micheál Martin go bhfuil sé tábhachtach go mbeadh scoileanna oscailte mar is gnáth i ndeireadh mhí Lúnasa.

'The Taoiseach says' the rules set out by the Department of Education for the reopening of schools may now be changed'.

Dfhéadfadh se a deir an Taoiseach go mbeadh athrú faoin tráth sin ar na rialacha atá leagtha amach ag an Roinn Oideachais leis na scoileanna a athoscailt.

The Taoiseach was referring to the criticism of the ASTI trade union on the advice of the Department.

Bhí an Taoiseach ag tagairt don cháineadh a rinne cearchumann an ASTI ar chomhairle na Roinne.

The ASTI says it will be impossible to apply the rule in classes for having a meter between everyone.

Deir an ASTI go mbeidh sé dodhéanta an riail a chur i bhfeidhm sna ranganna maidir le méadar a bheith idir gach duine.

Draft agreed plan on reducing the implications of Brexit.

Dréachtphlean aontaithe maidir le himpleachtaí Brexit a laghdú.

A draft plan has been agreed between Ireland and the European Union with a view to reducing the implications of Brexit on this country.

Tá dréachtphlean aontaithe idir Éirinn agus an tAontas Eorpach féachaint le himpleachtaí an Bhreatimeachta ar an tír seo a laghdú.

It seeks to alleviate the red tape on Irish goods exported through Britain to Europe.

Féachann sé leis an rómhaorlathas ar earraí Éireannacha a bheadh á n-easportáil thríd an Bhreatain chuig an Eoraip a mhaolú.

There will be special lanes reserved for exporters from this country as soon as they arrive from their British ferries heading to continental Europe.

Beidh lánaí speisialta curtha i leataobh do lucht easportála ón tír seo chomh luath is a thagann siad óna báid farantóireachta sa Bhreatain ag tabhairt aghaidh ar mhór-roinn na hEorpa.

The plan must be adopted by the member states.

Caithfidh na baillstáit glacadh leis an bplean.

If adopted, European Union rules on how products are marketed must be changed.

Má ghlactar leis, caithfear athrú a chur ar rialacha an Aontais Eorpaigh faoin mbealach a gcuirtear táirgí ar an margadh aonair.

New Gaelic democratic trust proposed in new study.

Iontaobhas daonlathach Gàidhlig molta i staidéar nua.

New research into the state of the Gaelic language and the future of the language suggests that there is a great danger that it will not survive for the foreseeable future for the region where it is spoken.

Tugtar le fios i dtaighde nua faoi staid na Gàidhlig agus faoina bhfuil i ndán don teanga go bhfuil baol mór ann nach mairfidh sí go ceann i bhfad eile sa réigiún ina labhraítear í go fóill.

The new study, published today, states that Gaelic will disappear as a community language within a few years and that English will be completely in its control unless prudent revival policies are implemented without delay.

Deirtear sa staidéar nua, a foilsíodh inniu, go n-imeoidh Gàidhlig as mar theanga phobail faoi cheann cúpla bliain agus go mbeidh ceannas iomlán ag an mBéarla uirthi mura gcuirfear beartais stuama athbheochana i bhfeidhm gan mhoill.

Gaelic was spoken all over Scotland, but the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization now ranks it among the world's endangered languages.

Bhí Gàidhlig á labhairt ar fud na hAlban tráth, ach áiríonn Eagraíocht Oideachais, Eolaíochta agus Chultúir na Náisiún Aontaithe anois í i measc theangacha an domhain atá i mbaol báis.

Gaelic is still spoken in the Western Isles, Staffin on Skye and Tiree.

Labhraítear Gàidhlig i gcónaí sna hOileáin Thiar, i Stafainn in Oileán Sgitheanach agus i dTiriodh.

It was in that region that the new research was conducted on behalf of the University of the Gaeltacht and the Islands in Scotland.

Is sa réigiún sin a rinneadh an taighde nua thar ceann Ollsoil na Gaeltachta agus na nOileán in Albain.

There are 28,000 people living in the region and, according to the research, 14,000 of them have some ability in Gaelic.

Tá 28,000 duine ina gcónaí sa réigiún agus, de réir an taighde, tá cumas éigin sa Ghàidhlig ag 14,000 díobh.

However, when this is statistically examined, it is actually 11,000 people.

Nuair a dhéantar scrúdú staitistiúil ar an méid sin, áfach, is 11,000 duine atá i gceist i ndáiríre.

Most of those are fifty years and over.

Leathchéad bliain agus os a chionn atá formhór na ndaoine sin.

The 500-sheet study states that the speaking of Gaelic and the transmission of Gaelic from the old to the younger generation in the region are the last two.

Deirtear sa staidéar 500 bileog go bhfuil labhairt na Gàidhlig agus seachadadh na Gàidhlig ó na seanghlúine go dtí an ghlúin óg sa réigiún ar an dé deiridh.

In short, the researchers argue, Gaelic speakers cannot afford to regenerate a new generation of speakers.

I mbeagán focal, a mhaíonn na taighdeoirí, níl sé dacmhainn ag cainteoirí Gàidhlig glúin nua cainteoirí a a athghiniúint.

Stornoway, Lewis, largest town in the Western Isles. Most young people disregard in Gaelic - Significant decline in the transmission of Gaelic from the old to the younger generation.

Steòrnabhagh, Leòdhas, an baile is mó sna hOileán Thiar (Pic: Getty) Is iad príomhthorthaí an taighde: - Cumas lag sa Ghàidhlig ag an aos óg - Labhairt na Gàidhlig imeallaithe go sóisialta, seachas i measc seanóirí - Gàidhlig imeallaithe i gcúrsaí oideachais - Neamhshuim sa Ghàidhlig ag formhór na n-óg - Laghdú mór ar sheachadadh na Gàidhlig ó na seanghlúine go dtí an ghlúin óg.
