De laadinfrastructuur voor elektrische auto's in de Europese Unie groeit sneller dan de verkoop van EV's. Dat blijkt uit cijfers van Transport & Environment. Alle EU-landen, behalve Malta, voldoen inmiddels aan de Europese normen voor openbare laadcapaciteit. Daarmee wordt de veelgehoorde klacht van autofabrikanten dat een gebrek aan laadpalen de EV-transitie remt, op losse schroeven gezet.

O chamado "contrato de gaveta", prática ainda bastante utilizada na compra e venda de imóveis, pode trazer sérios prejuízos para compradores e vendedores. O alerta é da tabeliã do Cartório de Notas e Protestos de Títulos de Lauro Müller, Ingrid Brandão Sartor, que participou de entrevista na Rádio Cruz de Malta e explicou os riscos de formalizar negociações apenas por meio de contratos particulares, sem a devida escritura pública e registro. Segundo Ingrid, apesar das campanhas de conscientização realizadas pelo cartório, o procedimento continua sendo comum no município. Ela explica que, na maioria das vezes, o comprador opta pelo contrato de gaveta porque pretende pagar o imóvel de forma parcelada e acredita que não é possível fazer a escritura antes da quitação. "Ainda estamos vendo muitos contratos de gaveta sendo feitos. A pessoa vai tentar comprar um imóvel, não deseja fazer a escritura na hora porque quer pagar em prestações. Então ela pega um modelo na internet, reconhece a assinatura em cartório e deixa o contrato literalmente na gaveta", relata. A tabeliã ressalta que o reconhecimento de firma não significa que o documento fique arquivado no cartório. De acordo com ela, esse é um dos principais equívocos cometidos por quem utiliza esse tipo de contrato. "O contrato de gaveta não fica no cartório. Nós apenas reconhecemos a assinatura, mas não guardamos o documento. Só a escritura pública é que dá segurança e fica conosco para sempre", explica. Além da possibilidade de perda do documento, Ingrid destaca que a situação pode se tornar ainda mais complexa caso o vendedor faleça antes da regularização da negociação. "No contrato de gaveta, a propriedade ainda está no nome de quem vendeu. Se o vendedor falecer, o imóvel terá que ser inventariado, passará pelos herdeiros e poderá exigir uma ação judicial e gastos complementares", afirma.

1565 - A tiny island stood between one of history's greatest empires and its ambitions in the Mediterranean. Outnumbered, isolated, and facing seemingly impossible odds, a brotherhood of warrior monks prepared for a confrontation that would test courage, endurance, and faith to their limits. This is the story of a siege that would echo across Europe for generations.

Did you know that some people believe giants built the ancient temples in Malta? These temples, like Ħaġar Qim and Mnajdra, are over 5,000 years old and made from massive stone blocks that seem impossible to move without modern technology. Because of their size and mystery, legends say that giants once roamed the island and were the only ones strong enough to build them. While archaeologists think they were made by humans, using basic tools and clever engineering, the giant stories still capture imaginations. The temples are older than the pyramids, making them one of the oldest structures on Earth. Whether giants were involved or not, Malta's temples are definitely amazing!

pWotD Episode 3362: The Odyssey (2026 film) Welcome to popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 614,398 views on Thursday, 16 July 2026 our article of the day is The Odyssey (2026 film).The Odyssey is a 2026 epic fantasy action film written and directed by Christopher Nolan. An adaptation of Homer's ancient Greek epic the Odyssey, the film stars Matt Damon as Odysseus, the Greek king of Ithaca, and chronicles his long and perilous journey home after the Trojan War and his encounters with mythical beings as he attempts to reunite with his wife, Penelope, portrayed by Anne Hathaway. The ensemble cast includes Tom Holland, Robert Pattinson, Lupita Nyong'o, Samantha Morton, Zendaya, and Charlize Theron. Nolan and his wife Emma Thomas produced the film through their production company, Syncopy.Nolan began writing The Odyssey in March 2024, secured the project with Universal Pictures by October, and the film was announced in December. Casting occurred from late 2024 through early 2025, and Damon was confirmed for the lead role in February 2025. Nolan studied several translations of the Odyssey. He depicted a realistic interpretation of Greek mythology, drawing inspiration from the epic historical films Andrei Rublev (1966) and Ran (1985), as well as the films of special effects artist Ray Harryhausen. Filming took place from February to August 2025 in Morocco, Greece, Italy, Scotland, Iceland, Western Sahara, and Malta, as well as at the Universal Studios Lot in Los Angeles. With an estimated budget of $250 million, the film is among the most expensive of Nolan's career, and the first to be shot entirely on IMAX's 70 mm film cameras. Leading up to the film's release, the costume and production designs, accents, dialogue, and casting choices sparked critical discussion and scrutiny regarding historical accuracy to the source material and the setting depicted.The Odyssey premiered on July 6, 2026, at the Odeon Luxe Leicester Square in London, ahead of a theatrical release by Universal Pictures on July 17 in the United States and the United Kingdom. It was made available in IMAX and multiple premium large formats.

O adolescente Matheus Carrer Della Justina, de 15 anos, segue internado na Unidade de Terapia Intensiva (UTI) enquanto enfrenta o tratamento contra uma doença genética rara. Após receber as seis doses do medicamento necessário para o controle da enfermidade, o jovem apresentou sinais de evolução clínica, embora ainda permaneça sob cuidados intensivos devido à fragilidade muscular e às complicações decorrentes do longo período de internação. Em entrevista à Rádio Cruz de Malta, o pai de Matheus, Jorge Luiz, atualizou o quadro de saúde do filho e informou que os exames mais recentes indicaram avanços no tratamento. Segundo ele, um dos principais marcadores da doença apresentou resultado animador. "Foram feitas as seis doses e, na semana passada, os exames mostraram que o ácido aminolevulínico veio negativo. A questão da porfiria ainda deu positivo, mas agora os médicos estão avaliando a quantidade para saber se a doença está em remissão ou se ainda será necessária alguma dose adicional do medicamento", explicou. Jorge também destacou que Matheus vem respondendo ao tratamento e já demonstra pequenos avanços na recuperação motora. "Ele vem evoluindo. Com essas seis doses, mostrou alguns movimentos a mais. Agora seguimos com as fisioterapias, principalmente a parte respiratória", afirmou. Nos últimos dias, a equipe médica chegou a retirar a traqueostomia de Matheus, mas uma sequência de episódios de queda na saturação de oxigênio fez com que o procedimento precisasse ser revertido. "O músculo respiratório ainda estava muito fraco. Houve necessidade de recolocar a cânula da traqueo. Agora foi colocada uma mais adequada e seguimos acompanhando. Todo esse processo acaba deixando ele um pouco mais abatido por causa das sedações, mas ele está vindo, devagarinho, para a recuperação", relatou o pai. Atualmente, Matheus completa 50 dias internado na UTI. Além da recuperação muscular, ele também trata feridas provocadas por complicações durante o uso de antibióticos. "Cada dia na UTI é um desafio maior. Eles estão tratando essas feridas e, resolvida essa situação, será mais fácil intensificar as fisioterapias. A expectativa é que, dependendo da evolução da respiração, ele possa ser transferido para o quarto na próxima semana. Acreditamos que vai dar certo", disse Jorge. Campanha solidária continua A mobilização para ajudar a família segue ativa. De acordo com Jorge Luiz, a vaquinha virtual já arrecadou aproximadamente R$ 201,5 mil, valor que aumenta quando somadas as doações recebidas via Pix e em dinheiro. "Vamos manter a vaquinha ativa por mais um tempo. As despesas continuam sendo muito altas", destacou. Além das contribuições da comunidade, o Unibave, instituição onde Matheus é estudante, promove neste sábado uma ação beneficente. O tradicional drive-thru de porco à pururuca terá toda a renda revertida para auxiliar no tratamento e nas despesas da família. A campanha solidária permanece aberta. As doações podem ser realizadas por meio da chave Pix 6152128@vaquinha.com.br ou diretamente à família.

MICAR moest de wildwestjaren van crypto in Europa achter zich laten. De verordening kwam er om consumenten te beschermen, marktmisbruik tegen te gaan en de versnipperde nationale regels te vervangen door één Europees kader. Het idee: haal je in één lidstaat een vergunning, dan mag je met dat paspoort in de hele Unie aan de slag. Nu de deadline achter ons ligt, maken we in dit tweede deel de balans op met Mauro Halve, voorzitter van branchevereniging VBNL en MICAR-trainer bij 2tokens. In de overgangsperiode mochten bedrijven die al bij De Nederlandsche Bank geregistreerd stonden onder het oude toezicht doorwerken aan hun MICAR-vergunning. Op 30 juni 2025 viel het doek. Wie sindsdien zonder vergunning cryptodiensten aanbiedt, is in overtreding. In Nederland was dat geen groot probleem, maar elders in Europa haalden een flinke hoeveelheid dienstverleners hun vergunning last moment. In Nederland stonden ooit 45 partijen geregistreerd bij DNB. Daarvan zijn er nu nog 28 over met een MICAR-vergunning. Dat is fors minder, te verklaren door de hoge nalevingskosten, fusies en overnames, en partijen die simpelweg afhaakten. Toch hoort Nederland tot de Europese koplopers, want de AFM was er vroeg bij en gaf als een van de eerste toezichthouders vergunningen af. Andere koplopers zijn Duitsland en Frankrijk, en vijf landen zijn samen goed voor ongeveer driekwart van alle vergunningen, terwijl Griekenland, Hongarije, Polen, Portugal en Roemenië achterblijven. Malta deelde vlak voor de deadline nog snel vergunningen uit, onder kritische blik van onder meer Italië en Frankrijk. Binance haalde zijn vergunning niet en moet uit Europa vertrekken. De AFM waarschuwde ondertussen tegen MEXC, dat zonder vergunning actief Nederlandse klanten bedient. Ook stablecoins waren een kernonderdeel van MICAR. Dat zijn cryptomunten met een vaste waarde, gekoppeld aan bijvoorbeeld de euro of de dollar. De regels moesten ze inkaderen en tegelijk ruimte geven om te groeien, maar een grote euro stablecoin kwam niet echt van de grond. Tether, uitgever van de grootste stablecoin USDT, vroeg nooit een vergunning aan omdat het zich niet kan vinden in de regels. Tot slot klinkt er in Brussel alweer gefluister over een MICAR2. We bespreken wat er nu buiten de wet valt en of dat in een volgende Europese cryptowet past. Over de podcast Cryptocurrency are here to stay.

In October last year, a ship owned by Adani Ports slowed to less than one knot near Malta. It held that position for over seven days, directly above the cables linking Malta to Sicily. It was no accident. India's largest private port operator has quietly built a fleet of more than a hundred vessels across 12 countries. Their job is servicing the world's offshore energy infrastructure. The business grew 134% in a single year. Ports made Adani rich. But there are only so many ports you can build. What the conglomerate does next may depend on waters far from any dock. Tune in.Daybreak is produced from the newsroom of The Ken, India's first subscriber-only business news platform.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Sunday morning, the 12th of July, 2026, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We go straight to the Book of Acts 28:1-6:”Now when they had escaped, they then found out that the island was called Malta. And the natives showed us unusual kindness; for they kindled a fire and made us all welcome, because of the rain that was falling and because of the cold. But when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks and laid them on the fire, a viper came out because of the heat, and fastened on his hand.” A snake bit him.” So when the natives saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said to one another, “No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he has escaped the sea, yet justice does not allow to live.” But he shook off the creature into the fire and suffered no harm. However, they were expecting that he would swell up or suddenly fall down dead. But after they had looked for a long time and saw no harm come to him, they changed their minds and said that he was a god.”Folks, we can see again, one minute a villain, the next minute a hero! The same people, within a few moments. He didn't die, so they started to worship him, but before that they wanted to kill him because they said that he was a murderer. What is the point of this story? The point of this story is, the only reward that you and I ever need is from God. I've had that experience myself many, many times. One moment, everybody thinks you're great. You make a mistake, whatever it might be, an honest mistake and everybody is down on top of you. Don't do that, you can't live like that.Let's today, start to trust the Lord like Paul did and He, Himself, will be our Redeemer and our Rewarder. Have a wonderful day. Jesus bless you and goodbye.

After three years in France, Kim is reflecting on the American habits she did not fully notice until she had enough distance to see them clearly.In this episode, she talks about rushing through the day, measuring life by productivity, feeling pressure to “keep busy,” overthinking parenting, buying too much, delaying rest, and treating pleasure like something that has to be earned. France has not magically cured any of these habits, but it has helped her question the fears, assumptions, and expectations that shaped so much of how she lived before.She also shares a summer travel chat about where people in France and Europe actually go on vacation, from Greek islands to Malta, Italy, Croatia, and Turkey.Resources:Don't forget to subscribe, rate & review and follow us on Instagram @coucou.pod

When Ambassador Gina Abercrombie-Winstanley first proposed a Chief Diversity and Inclusion Officer role at the State Department, the response from HR was polite and dismissive. Years later, she came back and got the job done — on her own terms, with her own budget, her own staff, and a seat on the committee that assigns ambassadors. What she found when she got inside was not what most people assume. Dr. Joy sits down with Ambassador Abercrombie-Winstanley — thirty-year diplomat, former US Ambassador to Malta, and the State Department's first-ever CDIO — to talk about what DEI was designed to do, what it was never meant to be, and why so much of the backlash against it is built on a misreading. They get into the mechanics of how people really get hired and promoted in elite institutions — the secret handshakes, the drug deals, the posted job that was never really open — and what it looked like when the Ambassador's office forced those positions into open competition. She also talks about the psychological toll of watching allies flip overnight once the political climate shifted, what she believes is still happening inside organizations even now, and how she's thinking about the pendulum — not to minimize this moment, but to prepare for what comes next. The conversation closes with some of the most specific career advice the show has offered: how to run your elevator pitch until it flows, when to reach out to someone on LinkedIn and what to say, and why she tells the people she mentors to bring their best self to work, not just their authentic one.

In the 986th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, which is sponsored by FanDuel Poker, Chad Holloway is joined by Mike Holtz and Ben Ludlow at Level 9 Studio by poker pro Jordan Westmorland to talk about the latest from the 2026 World Series of Poker (WSOP). That includes the $10,000 Main Event being in full swing, albeit with slightly fewer players than in past years. Will the field crack 9,000 players? Also, how did Jordan, Mike, and Ben, who got to play at the feature table with Daniel Negreanu, do in poker's premier tournament? Along those lines, the WSOP is back on ESPN, or at least the app, and not everyone is happy about that.  In non-WSOP news, there was a big development in the Texas poker scene as Doug Polk unexpectedly announced that he would be stepping away from The Lodge's core business.

At the time of writing in mid-June, the uncertainties of the on-again, off-again conflict in the Middle East are playing havoc with fuel prices as the industry braces itself for a possible shortage, one that might affect Europe most acutely. But there is more to the problem than reduced supply. In fact, as Avfuel's Director of Trading and Logistics, Muneeb Ahmed explains in his revealing article, the Strait of Hormuz crisis can teach business aviation how fuel markets really work. Fuel prices, he says, are not a simple reflection of supply conditions, but the product of a global system that's constantly processing information, evaluating risk and responding to uncertainty. Opinions vary on whether cancellation of the 2026 edition of the long-running European Business Aviation Convention and Exhibition – EBACE – event was expected. Either way, its demise has not kept your editor away from real aeroplanes, with Textron's splendid Citation Ascend and a spectacular array of Gulfstreams making their way into this edition. The Ascend impressed through its attention to detail, while the Gulfstreams won through on sheer presence. In this summer 2026 EVA, we also look at European airports and FBOs, including Riviera Airport, a recent addition to the Sky Valet Connect network. Finnish FBOs Jetflite and ScandiAvia also feature, alongside the UK's XLR Jet Centres. XLR works in partnership with Saxon Air at the latter's Norwich Airport FBO, supporting the burgeoning company's jet and helicopter fleets. These past few months have seen a rapid expansion in Saxon's helicopter management and charter operations, yet Miles Riches, Head of Rotary Sales at the UK operator, says he is keen to add just a few more aircraft to the fleet. Aircraft management, especially for long-range jets, is also the primary business of Malta's Skyfirst. A powerful industry advocate, Skyfirst CEO and founder Olivier Perdriel is also outspoken on Europe's profligate regulations and taxes, a bundle of red tape that he fears is damaging the industry. KlasJet, meanwhile, as revealed by CEO Justinas Bulka, is patiently working with the FAA as it looks to expand its VIP Boeing 737 operations in the US. Finally, thanks to the splendid folk at Phillips 66, we are thrilled to present the story of Bighorn Airways, an organisation born out of the desire to fly and a love for aviation, according to Director of FBO Services Penny Rader. Based at Sheridan County Airport, Wyoming, the company evolved from a 1940s crop-spraying outfit and today flies wildfire response operations alongside its FBO and maintenance operations. Bighorn encapsulates the complexity, flexibility and variety that characterise business aviation, and we hope you love its story too.

Kyle discusses the mess that the Keefe D trial might become, the murder of a journalist by a billionaire in Malta, and more.

Our recap episodes, which offer a synthesis of our 1792-1804 coverage one year at a time, have reached 1799 - a year in which Napoleon Bonaparte achieves an astonishing turnaround in fortunes which ends with him in power. Chris Sloan talks presenter Alex Stevenson through specific key clips he's picked out from our old episodes grouped around four themes which, we argue, help frame the period and shape our understanding of it in a whole new way. We hope this will provide a helpful refresh for longstanding listeners - whilst at the same time offering an 'entry ramp' to the podcast for those who want to get up to speed relatively easily before we crash full-speed into the intensity of the Napoleonic Wars.This episode covers a 12-month period in which Bonaparte's failed Syrian campaign leads him to attempt the desperate gamble of a return to France - which dramatically pays off when, somehow, he emerges as the country's ruler after the coup of Brumaire. That is the culmination of a remarkable year of fighting in Italy and Switzerland, with Russian heroics under the leadership of Suvorov and gritty French defence led by Massena. There really is so much going on - from the Anglo-Russian invasion of Holland to the fall of Naples, from the siege of Malta to the diplomacy of the Second Coalition - what a year 1799 truly is.

It was burnout, worn almost as a badge of honour. People competing over who'd taken the most 3am calls. She found that troubling, and it drove the approach she'd go on to build at Zzzing, a fast-growing property management company based in Malta. Three and a half years later, Zzzing has grown from 50 properties to 650, and their AI agent Zoe handles 90% of all guest communications across the portfolio. But what makes this conversation interesting isn't the scale or the technology. It's the philosophy behind it: that tech should be silent, and hospitality should be loud. That AI doesn't replace the human side of this business, rather it gives people more time and energy to deliver it. Sab and I talked about her TRT framework for designing AI policies, the seven guest moments that anchor everything Zzzing does, how they handled team resistance to AI adoption, and what she'd say to property managers still watching from the sidelines. Key Takeaways  Tech should be silent, hospitality should be loud. The goal of AI in guest communication isn't to replace the host's voice.  It's there to deliver that voice consistently, at any hour, across every conversation.  AI amplifies what you already have in place. If your policies aren't documented, AI won't fix that. It will amplify the mess. Getting your foundations right before deploying AI isn't a delay,it's the work.  Sab's TRT framework makes policy design accessible. Trigger (what initiates this communication), Reaction (how you would genuinely respond), Tone (the warmth, the friendliness, the examples), and Guardrails (when does the AI stop and hand to a human).  The seven guest moments give you a map. Discovery, booking, arrival, access, during-stay, checkout, and come-back. Everything you need from AI slots into one of those seven buckets.  Humanising the AI agent internally matters as much as externally. Naming Zoe and giving her a clear job description helped Zzzing's team understand where the AI started and stopped, which reduced resistance significantly.  Test your own policies. Don't experiment on real guests. Make a test booking and run your AI through every scenario every few days. You are in the driver's seat and AI isn't taking over. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

As Edwina took pains to lay low in Malta after the scandals of her affairs, Italy decided to exit the League of Nations and invade Ethiopia. To protect their children, she took them to Budapest and installed them in a hotel with their nanny and governess... and then forgot which hotel they were in. For months. As the summer of 1935 turned to fall, and then winter, they just stayed in their hotel until Edwina finally came across the paper she'd written the hotel's name on, tucked into the pocket of an outfit she hadn't worn in a while. Careless people. But then World War II came, and with so much asked of ordinary Britons, the privileged were required to step up. For perhaps the first time in her life, the skills and networking that Edwina had spent her life developing could suddenly be applied to a grand purpose: fundraising, organizing, lobbying for help in the United States. Louis was in the fight as a Naval officer, but Edwina was equally engaged, and the experience brought them together as never before. They would have further adventures together in India, overseeing the end of the Colonial period there, and form a distinct attachment to Indian Prime Minister Nehru that would last to the end of her life in 1960.
