[00:00:09] Good evening, the President of the Republic requests speed in obtaining
[00:00:13] audit results from the judicial police. António José Seguro emphasizes
[00:00:16] that this is important to preserve the democracy of
[00:00:19] institutions. School directors are apprehensive
[00:00:23] about whether it will be possible to publish this Friday, the
[00:00:26] second-phase exam results and the re-evaluations of the...
[00:00:30] tests. Donald Trump believes that the war with Iran will
[00:00:33] end very soon. Iran has meanwhile reached an agreement with
[00:00:37] Oman on the Strait of Hormuz. And Benfica
[00:00:40] thrashed Hearts 6-1. In this newscast, we will show a summary of that
[00:00:44] Europa League match. 24 Horas is starting. Welcome.
[00:00:47] Stay with us.
[00:01:00] The public ministry wants to take Minister Luís Neves to court for alleged
[00:01:04] financial infractions when he was national director of the judicial police.
[00:01:08] The process is at the Court of Accounts. The Minister of Internal Administration
[00:01:11] says that he himself requested the intervention of this court.
[00:01:15] The audit of the internal evaluation of the judiciary was ordered by the
[00:01:19] Minister of Justice, following the cases involving Luís
[00:01:22] Neves.
[00:01:25] The days as minister pass, but his passage through the directorship of the
[00:01:30] investment in gas networks, which is judicial police continues to mark Luís Neves' agenda. While he
[00:01:34] insists that everything is fine, the Ministry of Justice ordered an
[00:01:37] audit of the PJ, although without clarifying the scope or the
[00:01:41] period to be analyzed. I have already said that I am absolutely
[00:01:44] calm, that all these audits,
[00:01:48] investigations, inquiries, hearings should
[00:01:51] be carried out so that in the end
[00:01:53] consider necessary to resolve the the truth of everything comes to light. Therefore, I want to say that
[00:01:56] I am absolutely calm and also that I am
[00:02:00] eager, if necessary, to collaborate
[00:02:02] and. The Ministry of
[00:02:06] Carvalhal, who will, however, have the orange to yellow. Justice also ordered the opening of an internal evaluation to frame what has been disclosed in the
[00:02:10] media about the internal functioning of the
[00:02:13] judiciary. But this is not the only
[00:02:17] open front for Luís Neves, who may face a
[00:02:20] trial. The Court of Accounts detected irregularities
[00:02:24] in the PJ in an audit carried out in 2023, but
[00:02:28] ended up validating the accounts. However, the Public Ministry
[00:02:31] understood that a fine should be applied.
[00:02:36] happened. There are people who are still classifying What is certain is that the Court of Accounts, in the first instance,
[00:02:40] it and reposition understood that there was no penalty or any
[00:02:42] sanction, however minimal, so, as I
[00:02:45] understand that this fact should be
[00:02:48] re-examined in the first analysis by the Court of Accounts, I will
[00:02:52] contest it, and it is I myself, therefore I will not be judged,
[00:02:56] it is I myself who will do
[00:02:58] need to do it. serve the Court of Accounts. At
[00:03:02] stake are facts related to a company that supplied
[00:03:06] tell me, say trips and did not issue an invoice. That
[00:03:08] fact that is there was to save a police
[00:03:12] operation of great importance in combating transnational
[00:03:16] organized crime. An urgent decision had to
[00:03:19] be made, a decision had to be made about
[00:03:22] confidentiality. And I want to say the following: the way
[00:03:26] these trips, we are talking about trips, were acquired.
[00:03:30] saved money for the state. RTP, the director of the anti-drug
[00:03:33] trafficking unit of the PJ, admits that these
[00:03:36] have been difficult weeks. We are bothered,
[00:03:40] we feel, as I said, uncomfortable with a set of things
[00:03:43] that have been said about the institution. Let's
[00:03:47] never confuse the whole with the
[00:03:50] part. The isolated act of
[00:03:54] anyone, of any organization, cannot
[00:03:57] be taken, without further ado, as. an indicator of
[00:04:01] clear failures in the procedures of the organization
[00:04:04] in question. In a
[00:04:06] daily newspapers, Público training action on the siren, the only topic was the
[00:04:10] minister's past, not even the controversial communications
[00:04:13] network in mid- summer managed to
[00:04:17] overshadow it.
[00:04:20] The President of the Republic welcomes the audit opened by the Minister of
[00:04:24] Justice and asks for speed in
[00:04:28] to the determining the results. António José Seguro warns that it is up to everyone
[00:04:30] who holds public office to defend democratic institutions
[00:04:33] and indeed, it is in this sense that I
[00:04:36] interpret the recent decision of the Minister of Justice to
[00:04:39] have eh
[00:04:42] 100 units per day to ordered an audit of the
[00:04:45] judicial police. What is important is that both this
[00:04:49] audit and the criminal investigations that are underway
[00:04:52] produce results as quickly as possible so that we
[00:04:56] can have knowledge of these conclusions. It is very
[00:04:59] important that each one, within the scope of their constitutional
[00:05:02] competencies, acts in agreement
[00:05:06] in order to preserve the democratic rule of law and the institutions of our
[00:05:10] democracy. And it is known, meanwhile, that the contractor who did
[00:05:13] work on Luís Neves's house also did work on the house of the current
[00:05:17] financial director of the judicial police. The information was advanced
[00:05:20] by CNN in Portugal, which quotes several neighbors of this high-ranking police
[00:05:24] officer. It should be noted that it was the financial director Álvaro Pires who
[00:05:28] took responsibility for suggesting the facilities of
[00:05:31] Constro Barcelos to house a trailer seized in a drug
[00:05:35] operation.
[00:05:39] The national exam board guarantees that the results of... the
[00:05:42] grades of the national secondary education exams carried out in the
[00:05:46] second phase, as well as the results of the re-evaluations of the first
[00:05:49] phase, will be posted this Friday. The
[00:05:53] school directors warn, however, that it will be very difficult to publish the
[00:05:57] grades.
[00:06:00] took two Portuguese exams, went cm by 90.
[00:06:04] The trips are also inspections.
[00:06:07] test. There was an error in the correction of my test, which was that they
[00:06:11] switched the versions. I had taken version two and
[00:06:14] they corrected it according to version one, that is, the questions
[00:06:18] I answered correctly were not
[00:06:21] marked correctly, or even zero for questions that were essentially correct.
[00:06:24] Do you have any idea how many fewer points you got with
[00:06:27] that error?
[00:06:29] I would say it could be about five or six
[00:06:33] points, points that make a difference in Francisco's life,
[00:06:36] preventing him, for now, from applying to the course he chose in higher education.
[00:06:40] The wait may be prolonged because the...
[00:06:42] reclassification is delayed and this Friday he risks
[00:06:46] finding only the grade from the second exam posted.
[00:06:50] Will you have confidence in the grade that will appear tomorrow, if it appears
[00:06:54] tomorrow? I don't even have confidence that they
[00:06:58] will appear tomorrow. Do you feel like you were a disadvantaged
[00:07:00] student?
[00:07:02] Yes, in schools Thursday afternoon was a
[00:07:05] waiting game. Right now, schools have their directors there,
[00:07:09] their secretariats there, other types of teachers. who are
[00:07:13] waiting for the file that doesn't arrive. The information finally arrived in the middle of the afternoon
[00:07:17] in a communication addressed to the school directors. The national exam
[00:07:21] board guaranteed that on Friday, students will
[00:07:24] be able to consult their grades. The National Exam Board informs that
[00:07:28] the respective results will be made available tomorrow,
[00:07:32] August 7th, during the morning, so that schools
[00:07:35] can post the results during the
[00:07:39] afternoon. If all this were running normally,
[00:07:43] today, Thursday, schools would be receiving the files with the
[00:07:46] classifications. Until now, this has not
[00:07:49] or re-evaluating the tests, so it will be difficult for these
[00:07:53] results to actually be posted. With many doubts about the
[00:07:56] re-evaluations, the expectation is that it will at least be possible
[00:07:59] to post the results of the second
[00:08:01] phase.
[00:08:04] And this Thursday, the deadline for the first phase of applications for
[00:08:07] higher education ended. The more than 20,000 students who requested a review
[00:08:11] of their tests have... they have three more days to
[00:08:14] apply.
[00:08:16] The choice is well defined. I chose first
[00:08:19] management at ISEG, at the Higher
[00:08:23] Institute of Economics and Management, then management also at
[00:08:27] ISCTE. The dream is management,
[00:08:30] it just remains to be seen if it comes true. Pedro is
[00:08:34] one of thousands of students who completed their application to higher
[00:08:37] education with confidence. I know I have a stable
[00:08:40] average, but even so, it's for... that leaves few averages.
[00:08:44] Although there are 20,000 students with the right to 3 extra days because
[00:08:48] they are waiting for grades from revisions, there are already more
[00:08:51] registrations than last year. GES
[00:08:55] counted this Tuesday about 55,000
[00:08:59] applications in this first phase, numbers that
[00:09:01] exceed the 49,000 registered in
[00:09:04] the first phase last year. This year there are
[00:09:07] also more than 56,000 vacancies, an increase of
[00:09:11] 83 in relation to
[00:09:14] 2025.
[00:09:18] For Pedro and thousands of other students, the future
[00:09:21] is now starting to become a little more real, with the end of the
[00:09:25] deadline for applications to higher education, at least for the
[00:09:29] majority.
[00:09:33] Ceuta authorities count 6,000 people living in the
[00:09:37] territory without documents, and there are reports of violence. This is a story we
[00:09:40] will return to shortly.
[00:09:46] Donald Trump again says that the war with Iran will end very
[00:09:50] soon. The US president also dismisses concerns about
[00:09:53] the military supply of the United
[00:09:55] States.
[00:09:59] I don't think they can go much longer. We're watching that very
[00:10:03] closely, but we have certain types which are
[00:10:06] very powerful and very good, and we
[00:10:10] have an unlimited supply and... so we're in
[00:10:13] great shape, but uh, with that being said, uh, we
[00:10:17] always want more, we have to have more, we have other things maybe come up, you
[00:10:21] maybe come up and maybe don't come up, hopefully nothing else does come up.
[00:10:30] Trump's statements made on the day that Iran reached an agreement with
[00:10:33] Oman on the Strait of Hormuz. The United States was reportedly left out of that
[00:10:37] agreement. The Trump administration says that the nature of the Iranian regime has
[00:10:41] hampered negotiations.
[00:10:44] With the American midterm elections approaching
[00:10:46] and the polls increasingly distant
[00:10:50] from approval for the war, Donald Trump went to a
[00:10:53] casino in Las Vegas and told supporters that he is putting
[00:10:57] his chips on an understanding with
[00:10:59] Iran.
[00:11:06] Adding that, contrary to what has been reported, the problem is not a lack of
[00:11:10] weapons and ammunition in the American arsenal.
[00:11:13] The problem, explains the vice-president, is
[00:11:17] another.
[00:11:19] And it seems like we're not. The reality, Laura is that number one, the Iranians
[00:11:23] are extraordinarily difficult people.
[00:11:55] it means that we have made a lot of progress a lot of progress has been made in
[00:11:58] talks with Oman and these advancements. [Persian speech]
[00:12:14] Russia launched new attacks against Ukraine, dozens of people died, mostly civilians.
[00:12:18] Ukraine
[00:12:22] is intensifying attacks on strategic Russian
[00:12:26] structures, which have aggravated fuel shortages.
[00:12:29] This time, two oil refineries were hit, and the fire
[00:12:33] was visible from a distance. The Russian defense
[00:12:36] minister stated that 600 Ukrainian drones had been shot down
[00:12:39] in a 12-hour period. These
[00:12:43] pieces of equipment are reused to
[00:12:46] confuse about the true authors of the
[00:12:49] offensives. Lithuania is on high
[00:12:52] alert. are intercepted
[00:12:56] by Ukrainian Russia, some drones fall
[00:13:00] and these parts and drone fragments
[00:13:03] or drone parts Russia has them,
[00:13:07] it is capable of
[00:13:09] constructing, assembling them into a working device
[00:13:12] a theoretical possibility that
[00:13:15] such a device, such drones could be used for a false
[00:13:19] flag operation exists.
[00:13:22] heard
[00:13:24] explosions throughout the
[00:14:25] night. Russia also attacked two ships
[00:14:32] near the Port of Odesa in the Black Sea that
[00:14:36] were transporting military equipment. Ukraine is
[00:14:39] working with European companies on the
[00:14:42] development of a new anti-missile defense system,
[00:14:45] capable of intercepting Russian ballistic
[00:14:49] missiles. The Secretary-General of the United Nations is
[00:14:52] concerned about the increasing risks to shipping safety in the Black
[00:14:56] Sea and the Sea of Azov. The Deputy Spokesperson for António Guterres
[00:15:00] condemns the most recent large-scale attacks between Russia and
[00:15:03] Ukraine.
[00:15:05] Including onto the territory of the Russian
[00:15:11] Federation. In this
[00:15:15] regard, he also condemns the recent Ukrainian drone
[00:15:18] attacks on several regions of the Russian Federation, which
[00:15:21] reportedly resulted in civilian casualties and damage. to
[00:15:25] civilian infrastructure, the secretary general reiterates his
[00:15:28] call for urgent deescalation, leading
[00:15:31] to a full, immediate and unconditional ceasefire, and for a
[00:15:35] just, sustainable,
[00:15:47] attacks by the Houthi against Yemeni government troops caused
[00:15:51] the death of at least 38 members of the governmental force.
[00:15:54] They were directed against military bases of the Yemeni government, in
[00:15:58] Marib and Adramut. In Marib, the army claims to have
[00:16:02] shot down a drone launched by the Houthis, and the
[00:16:05] Houthis allege that this offensive was exposed to a Saudi mobilization
[00:16:09] near the areas under their control. Yemen has been experiencing a
[00:16:12] civil war since 2014, despite the partial truce in force since
[00:16:16] 2022. The clashes are now increasing tensions in the
[00:16:20] country, and this is the deadliest toll since the
[00:16:23] ceasefire. There are 6,000 people living in
[00:16:27] Ceuta without documents. The president of the regional government fears a new
[00:16:30] massive influx of illegal immigrants. There are also reports of
[00:16:33] aggressions against migrants carried out by organized groups.
[00:18:37] in 60 years, later we will explain the procedures that are
[00:18:40] followed to maintain the safety of the
[00:18:42] crossing.
[00:18:49] Two inquiries have been opened into the death of one of the detainees from the ship
[00:18:53] with 5 tons of cocaine intercepted by the Portuguese authorities. The man
[00:18:57] was found dead in his cell. The prison guards believe he was
[00:19:01] collaborating with the authorities, but the judicial police denies that the
[00:19:04] crew member was an informant.
[00:19:08] "The judicial police admits that a relevant
[00:19:11] piece of this investigation was lost. It was an
[00:19:14] important piece, firstly in the sense that all the
[00:19:18] burden of evidence that existed pointed to his involvement in
[00:19:22] this criminal dynamic. He was a member of the
[00:19:26] crew of this cargo ship and was found
[00:19:29] dead in his cell. The suicide of someone is always something that
[00:19:33] touches us all. When it happens inside a
[00:19:36] prison," it touches us even more because it is a state
[00:19:40] structure. Now, the state did not fail precisely,
[00:19:43] that's what the ongoing inquiries are about.
[00:19:46] Two inquiries are currently underway, a criminal inquiry,
[00:19:50] according to the PJ, and another inquiry by the General Directorate of
[00:19:53] Reintegration and Prison Services. The guards
[00:19:56] reveal that the Indian citizen was alone in a
[00:20:00] cell. It was requested by the inspectors of the judicial police that he
[00:20:04] remain alone in a cell. Normally, when we are asked,
[00:20:07] either by the court or by criminal police bodies, one of
[00:20:11] two things: either it is a danger to his life or because he is cooperating with the
[00:20:15] authorities. When we talk about danger to life, in what sense can this
[00:20:18] happen? The danger to life could also be in the sense that someone
[00:20:22] who is cooperating with an investigation and the others, the other
[00:20:25] detainees, eh, do not want him to cooperate and
[00:20:28] harm him. That's why we suspect that he may have
[00:20:32] been cooperating with the judicial police.
[00:20:35] The judicial police confirms that there... there was an attitude of
[00:20:38] collaboration, but they make it
[00:20:40] clear, no, he was not an informant, absolutely,
[00:20:44] absolutely nothing. He was someone who, until a certain point in the investigation, was
[00:20:48] completely unknown to us. RTP knows that it was through
[00:20:51] this Indian that more than a ton of cocaine
[00:20:54] was found, which was hidden deep in the bottom of the
[00:20:57] ship next to the hull. In the cells, there is no
[00:21:01] video surveillance. According to the national union,
[00:21:04] there were two or three guards for 150
[00:21:08] inmates.
[00:21:11] Household debt reached a historic high, but it is a
[00:21:14] trend that worries the Bank of Portugal. Household debt
[00:21:18] exceeds 180. 80 million euros, and the weight
[00:21:22] of that debt in income rose again last year, largely due to
[00:21:26] housing credit.
[00:21:29] 180 million euros. The figure
[00:21:32] is given by the Bank of Portugal and represents all the debt of
[00:21:36] Portuguese families. It is a high figure, in fact, the highest
[00:21:40] since records began, even counting the 2008
[00:21:43] financial crisis. But since then, much has changed and this debt
[00:21:47] has a different weight. Naturally,
[00:21:51] inflation and economic growth explain part of this record value, but there are other factors, for
[00:21:54] example, the rise in housing prices. Housing prices, which are a
[00:21:58] very large component of household debt,
[00:22:01] have grown very sharply. In the last year, they grew by about
[00:22:05] over 17%, while disposable income grew only
[00:22:09] slightly above 5%, so it is normal that debt also
[00:22:12] grows. This debt worries the Bank of Portugal,
[00:22:15] especially in housing credit. More than
[00:22:18] half of the contracts made with
[00:22:22] people who bought housing under 35 years old are precisely made with a
[00:22:26] public guarantee. Also other more structural factors of low
[00:22:29] frequency, such as, for example, very low unemployment rates,
[00:22:33] lead to the fact that people have a greater capacity for indebtedness against
[00:22:37] future income, even if this capacity is not felt
[00:22:41] by everyone. The central bank's warning in May was clear: the
[00:22:45] poorest are at greater risk of default, and
[00:22:48] life seems to be more...
[00:22:50] Home credit, yes, sometimes my husband says: "Oh, it's, it's, it's
[00:22:54] very high interest." Thank God we're getting by,
[00:22:58] right? But sometimes you have to, right,
[00:23:02] eating out is not possible to balance the accounts. In my
[00:23:05] case, yes, I've felt this difficulty. It's quite difficult to
[00:23:09] maintain, eh, minimally,
[00:23:12] eh, the daily expenses and have everything
[00:23:16] under control, and sometimes we feel that they really have no money because
[00:23:20] they look and even want to buy bread, but
[00:23:24] well, they look for cheaper bread, from the supermarket, like that.
[00:23:28] This month, new rules came into force to tighten credit demand.
[00:23:31] Portugal is one of the few countries in the euro zone where household
[00:23:35] debt represents more than half of the national
[00:23:38] wealth.
[00:23:41] The President of the Republic inaugurated tonight the São Mateus Fair in
[00:23:44] Viseu. António José Seguro wants stable policies in various
[00:23:48] areas of governance and indicated the...
[00:24:05] 634 years of one of the oldest fairs in the entire
[00:24:09] Iberian Peninsula. The São Mateus Fair is, for the President of the
[00:24:12] Republic, an example of the power of the country's regions
[00:24:15] to excel in tourism, a sector
[00:24:19] that... Seguro wants to be seen as an example for
[00:24:22] other areas of governance. It is necessary to have stable
[00:24:26] public policies. Governments changed,
[00:24:30] government members in the area of tourism changed, but a sequence is followed,
[00:24:33] a good example that should
[00:24:37] proliferate in other sectoral areas of
[00:24:41] our country's governance. During the afternoon,
[00:24:44] Seguro visited the fairgrounds, which for 31 days hosts a
[00:24:48] festival in the city.
[00:24:53] The Certam attracts annually more than 1 million visitors, generating a
[00:24:57] vital financial impact for the entire central
[00:25:00] region, a fair that is a place of multiple
[00:25:03] possibilities. The meeting place for the diaspora and for
[00:25:07] Portuguese who live here, but also a place for the
[00:25:10] expression of the capacity and commercial, economic
[00:25:13] and business dynamism of Viseu. Still in the
[00:25:17] city, he visited a new residential
[00:25:21] culture for seniors.
[00:25:24] The President of the Republic warns of a possible
[00:25:27] generational tragedy, if there are no improvements in
[00:25:31] care for the elderly. It is unacceptable that the state has
[00:25:34] admitted to such a large extent its failure to respond to this
[00:25:38] need that drives thousands of families to despair.
[00:25:42] It is not up to the social sector to replace the
[00:25:45] responsibilities of the state. Thousands of
[00:25:47] families painfully await a response to the worsening
[00:25:51] trend of a problem that we all have a duty to prevent from
[00:25:55] turning into a generational tragedy.
[00:25:58] Viseu handed over the keys to the city to the President of the
[00:26:01] Republic.
[00:26:05] Braga's victory over Dinamo Minsk by 1-0 in the
[00:26:08] third qualifying round of the Conference League. We will show the highlights of the match later on.
[00:26:12] The damage caused by the storm
[00:26:17] that hit the Azores is being assessed. Thunderstorms and heavy rain
[00:26:20] caused floods and landslides. More than 60
[00:26:24] people were evacuated from a campsite.
[00:26:27] It seems strange in mid-
[00:26:33] August, but it is not a rare phenomenon in the
[00:26:36] Azores. The night from Wednesday to Thursday was
[00:26:39] like this, clearer and
[00:26:43] noisier, with more than 19,000 electrical
[00:26:45] discharges between 10 p.m. and 10
[00:26:49] a.m. The island where there were more electrical
[00:26:52] discharges, right over the island, we are talking about right over the island, was Pico Island. This happens, therefore,
[00:26:56] the temperature with humidity in the month of
[00:27:00] on the other hand. there is already atmospheric instability, and this instability
[00:27:04] together with high relative humidity and high temperature makes it
[00:27:07] favorable for the formation of large vertically developed clouds, which are the ones that
[00:27:11] cause the thunderstorms. As a precaution, the Praia da Vitória
[00:27:14] campsite on Terceira Island was evacuated.
[00:27:18] 67 people spent the night in a school,
[00:27:21] including a group of young people who were at a party
[00:27:25] and didn't notice anything. When we
[00:27:28] arrived, everyone was already outside. to go to the professional
[00:27:31] school. We wanted to go to the tent, they didn't let us go there, if we
[00:27:35] arrived at the park, they were evacuating all the people, we went to our
[00:27:39] tent, it wasn't raining inside our tent, everything was fine, we
[00:27:43] even lay down for a while to see if we could stay inside our
[00:27:46] tent because we understood that there were people who might even be in trouble, but
[00:27:49] we had no problem at all, today they forced us to leave, they were
[00:27:53] ripping off the wristbands of those who didn't want to leave so they couldn't enter the
[00:27:57] park again and now today is the best
[00:28:00] day of sunshine we've had. This Thursday the weather improved
[00:28:04] and IPMA changed the warning from
[00:28:08] During the night, the storm caused a landslide on a
[00:28:11] road and floods in some houses, but
[00:28:15] no injuries were reported.
[00:28:18] Blood donor
[00:28:21] associations guarantee that hundreds of donations are wasted because of
[00:28:25] the cancellation of collections. These cancellations result from the lack of human
[00:28:28] resources at the Blood Institute, at this time of... when there is
[00:28:32] a drop in reserves.
[00:28:34] The associations mention
[00:28:36] several cancelled collections since May, exacerbated
[00:28:40] now, as usual, during holiday periods, hundreds
[00:28:43] of that are
[00:28:46] wasted. Still, last Saturday in Rio
[00:28:49] Maior, a blood drive that initially
[00:28:53] planned for 90 registered
[00:28:55] donors,
[00:28:57] the Lisbon blood center decided to reduce that blood drive to
[00:29:01] 60 given. On the day, they only brought equipment,
[00:29:04] materials, and professionals for 50, and
[00:29:08] this means that about 30 people left without being able to donate
[00:29:11] blood. This is happening across the country, they assure, despite
[00:29:15] official appeals for donations, with hospitals in
[00:29:18] reserve crisis, unable to get the blood they need,
[00:29:22] particularly in the city of Lisbon, particularly in the city of
[00:29:25] Algarve, and even to the north. I mean,
[00:29:28] we've seen a lot on social media, São João hospital, Santa hospital.
[00:29:33] Something that was unusual. The Portuguese
[00:29:36] Institute of Blood and Transplantation does not hide that there
[00:29:39] are difficulties, as is common across all
[00:29:42] public administration in Portugal. Obviously,
[00:29:45] if we are talking about human resources, and especially in the area of
[00:29:49] health, but waste of donations, no, they always try
[00:29:53] to reschedule for sessions with a greater number of donors, guarantees the director of the
[00:29:56] Institute in Porto, the center that collects 40% of the total
[00:30:00] 60 of the responsibility of the... IPST in the country. In the first
[00:30:04] semester, it only postponed 23 of the more than 800 scheduled
[00:30:08] sessions, a problem where it highlights that there are, after all,
[00:30:11] two sides to the coin. For the first six months of the
[00:30:15] year, the organizers postponed
[00:30:18] 49 sessions, obviously the lack of
[00:30:21] resources, the lack and the difficulty of
[00:30:24] donor mobilization, of facilities, of the specific dynamics
[00:30:27] of each place, it's not just transversal
[00:30:30] institutes. It's also transversal to the
[00:30:34] associative movement. At this time, with low reserves, as in previous
[00:30:37] years, it's important to know how best to contribute. Health
[00:30:41] units need more than
[00:30:45] maintain assistance. Cases of A and O
[00:30:48] positive and negative have reserve values, and the goal
[00:30:52] is to have 7 days where they are below these values, and therefore the reminder to
[00:30:56] donors that they should make their donation
[00:30:59] is very important and they can find out where to do it still...
[00:31:16] Children and adolescents who start having social media accounts
[00:31:19] early tend to have poorer school results,
[00:31:23] particularly in their native language and mathematics. This conclusion
[00:31:26] comes from a study that highlights the negative impact of early
[00:31:30] use of these platforms.
[00:31:33] The few seconds of attention that Miguel gives to each
[00:31:36] video turn into hours of the day for this
[00:31:40] 13-year-old student. Now during the holidays,
[00:31:43] it's a bit more.
[00:31:46] For about 6 hours. What applications do
[00:31:50] you use? Mainly TikTok,
[00:31:53] Instagram. He's been on social media for two years,
[00:31:57] with no daily time limit, except for the window
[00:32:00] between 11 PM and 7 AM when access
[00:32:03] is blocked. He assures that his school
[00:32:06] grades are not affected.
[00:32:10] No, I know when I have to study, when I have a more important test and
[00:32:14] when... I need to study more. No, it didn't affect it. My grades were
[00:32:18] good, only fours and fives, so it's
[00:32:21] good. That was not the pattern identified by a group of
[00:32:25] Italian researchers who tried to understand the relationship between the
[00:32:28] age of creating the first social media account
[00:32:32] and the school performance of children and
[00:32:35] adolescents. It is a study with very strong associations
[00:32:38] and that allows us to
[00:32:41] state that these associations between the use of social
[00:32:45] media, parental control, and attention can lead
[00:32:49] to having
[00:32:51] weaker performances, especially in subjects that require
[00:32:55] greater reading depth, greater depth of
[00:32:58] reasoning. The difficulties are greater in the mother tongue
[00:33:01] and in mathematics. In English,
[00:33:04] no impacts were identified. The study
[00:33:07] followed more than 5,000 students from 28 schools in
[00:33:11] northern Italy, evaluating the effects of using
[00:33:15] Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok. After 2
[00:33:19] years of social media for children who were between 10 and 11 years old in the sixth
[00:33:22] year, a difference of 0.2 standard
[00:33:25] deviation is already noticeable, which, according to the
[00:33:28] authors, is equivalent to a 6-month delay in
[00:33:31] learning. Chiara is 10 years old,
[00:33:34] she is using Instagram, I usually see
[00:33:38] some routines on Instagram my
[00:33:42] mom can see my Instagram. Can she see what you
[00:33:46] saw? Yes, and people started those things. How long
[00:33:49] have you had Instagram, do you know? Not long, my mom used to use
[00:33:53] my Instagram, my Facebook, but now
[00:33:56] I've been using it for a short time, I can only
[00:33:59] use it from 30 minutes to 1:30.
[00:34:03] Even with parental control and time limits, researchers
[00:34:06] warn, the earlier the access, the more harmful
[00:34:09] the effect of social media on performance.
[00:34:13] The impact is explained by the
[00:34:17] distractions caused by smartphones at key moments
[00:34:20] of the day, in addition to the type of content
[00:34:23] consumed. On social media, linguistic
[00:34:26] richness is very, there is no linguistic richness, it is poor, and therefore this will also
[00:34:30] make children have less vocabulary,
[00:34:33] read poorly constructed statements and phrases, we have to look at this with some
[00:34:37] concern and understand how policies
[00:34:40] can regulate this
[00:34:44] use of social media by children. The study
[00:34:48] comes at a particularly sensitive time for debate around
[00:34:51] social media, after Australia became the
[00:34:55] first country in the world to prohibit access for minors under
[00:34:59] 16 years old. The discussion reached European
[00:35:02] countries and the European Union. France
[00:35:04] has just banned access to social media for minors under 15
[00:35:08] years old. Similar measures are being discussed in Spain and the
[00:35:12] United Kingdom. Portugal will extend the prohibition
[00:35:15] of mobile phone use in schools until the ninth
[00:35:18] grade.
[00:35:20] The search for glasses to watch next Wednesday's eclipse has
[00:35:24] increased in opticians and pharmacies. Ophthalmologists
[00:35:28] warn of serious retinal damage if one looks
[00:35:32] directly at the sun or without adequate protection. It will be the
[00:35:35] first total eclipse since
[00:35:37] 1912.
[00:35:40] For a few minutes, day turns into night. It's one of the
[00:35:43] most anticipated astronomical phenomena of the year, and no one wants to be
[00:35:47] left out. But then I have to share with my husband, it doesn't
[00:35:50] matter. 5 minutes divide the time,
[00:35:54] ah, but I'm so envious about these things in nature,
[00:35:57] so I want everything just for me. Some don't have the same luck as Regina, there's
[00:36:01] been too much demand for so little supply. I've been looking,
[00:36:05] but as always, I'm late and there's nothing left, everything is sold out,
[00:36:08] 150 offered. We have half a dozen
[00:36:11] more waiting for late customers who remember at the last
[00:36:15] minute. There has been a very large influx of people arriving at
[00:36:18] opticians, near opticians, optometrists, optical
[00:36:22] technicians, and also pharmacies, but not all glasses are suitable for looking at the
[00:36:25] sun. At the time of purchase
[00:36:29] technical certification, also pay attention to the validity, eh,
[00:36:33] yes, the validity, because this is a plastic and over time it loses
[00:36:37] characteristics. Common sunglasses, X-rays, smoked
[00:36:40] glass or CDs do not protect the retina. The
[00:36:44] consequences are serious, more common among young people. The
[00:36:47] central point, which is the fovea, which is what can be affected during a solar
[00:36:51] eclipse, by looking, is the point
[00:36:53] responsible for the quality of vision, reading vision,
[00:36:57] facial recognition, color vision,
[00:37:01] recognizing money, so it's the place where
[00:37:05] it stays. Just 3 seconds of direct exposure
[00:37:09] to looking at the sun, because there is a focusing of these
[00:37:12] rays of light
[00:37:16] on this structure that destroys it. There are
[00:37:18] 660 opticians participating in the campaign that offers these
[00:37:21] glasses. The stock has been mostly sold out in
[00:37:25] all of them. In principle, we will receive more ... What I can guarantee is that
[00:37:28] within the optical zone, all people who have a registration and a code will
[00:37:32] have glasses to pick up. We were forced to acquire the glasses that we will
[00:37:36] have here in our pharmacy on Friday because we have had a
[00:37:40] great demand. The eclipse will be visible throughout the continental territory,
[00:37:43] but the sun's coverage varies depending on the location, so there
[00:37:47] are already people looking for the best place to look up at the sky. I'm going to
[00:37:51] Spain to see it. I'm having difficulty finding
[00:37:54] glasses.
[00:38:00] The use of mobile phones or cameras without
[00:38:03] solar filters is also advised against. The last total
[00:38:06] solar eclipse in Portugal happened in 1912. The
[00:38:09] next one will be in 2144. The centenary encounter is scheduled for
[00:38:13] next Wednesday between the sun and the
[00:38:15] moon.
[00:38:21] It is now 27 minutes past midnight in continental Portugal. It's time to
[00:38:25] review some of the highlights of current events. Remembering Minister
[00:38:28] Luís Neves, who will be judged by the Court of Auditors for alleged financial
[00:38:31] infractions in the Judicial Police. If the minister paid the fine
[00:38:35] voluntarily, he would be exempt from judgment, but Luís Neves
[00:38:38] chose to contest the charges of the
[00:38:41] court.
[00:38:43] The second phase exam grades and test reappraisals will be
[00:38:47] published this Friday, a guarantee from the Ministry of Education that
[00:38:51] also assures there will be no further delay. School
[00:38:54] directors warn that it will be very difficult to publish the
[00:38:58] grades.
[00:39:00] The GNR registered 1,500 sports incidents last season. The
[00:39:04] majority occurred in football, especially in district championships and
[00:39:08] in the senior category. After football, futsal and roller
[00:39:11] hockey were the modalities in which there were more cases of insults,
[00:39:14] threats, explosion of pyrotechnic artifacts, assaults on
[00:39:18] physical integrity and throwing of
[00:39:20] objects.
[00:39:23] The new series of treasury certificates has already captured almost
[00:39:27] 3,000 million euros in family savings. The product went on
[00:39:31] sale in July. In total, during the month, it attracted
[00:39:34] 8,300 subscribers. The average subscription value was
[00:39:37] less than 28,000
[00:39:40] euros.
[00:39:42] The Ukrainian army hit two Russian oil refineries located hundreds
[00:39:46] of kilometers from the border between the two countries. Four people were
[00:39:50] reportedly injured in the
[00:39:51] attacks.
[00:39:54] Israel continues to bomb southern Lebanon. Tel Aviv justifies the
[00:39:58] attacks, claiming violations of the ceasefire by Hezbollah. Despite
[00:40:02] this, the US State Department guarantees that the talks between Tel Aviv and
[00:40:05] Beirut, which took place in Rome, were productive.
[00:40:21] Benfica took an important step towards qualifying for the Europa
[00:40:25] League playoffs. Marco Silva's team thrashed
[00:40:28] Hearts of Scotland 6-1. Not even 2 minutes into this
[00:40:32] operation "hearts", and it seemed
[00:40:35] to threaten to score again. In the following minute, the goal didn't escape thanks to a
[00:40:38] play by Ba, Barreiro and with a final touch by Rafa.
[00:40:42] Marco Silva celebrated the goal scored so early after a perfect
[00:40:46] play. At five minutes, another chance by
[00:40:49] Barreiro and Roe could not prevent celebrations. But
[00:40:53] at 23 minutes, it became inevitable for Tomás
[00:40:56] Araújo after Sudakov's corner, a beautiful
[00:40:59] header from the center-back, now with the captain's armband. The best
[00:41:02] Hearts could do in the first half was send a ball to the crossbar by
[00:41:06] Mendi from a mistaken Samu clearance. Before
[00:41:09] halftime, Mendi grabs Prestian in the box,
[00:41:12] a penalty converted by Pavlides for
[00:41:16] 3-0, a significant score at halftime.
[00:41:19] Second half, more of the same, that is, goals.
[00:41:23] Prestian recovers the ball near to make it 4-1, but the
[00:41:40] Reds quickly returned to
[00:41:43] normal. John Duran scored his first goal for
[00:41:46] Benfica, assisted by Chel Droup, finishing with his left
[00:41:49] foot. The Norwegian himself from a penalty
[00:41:52] fixed the score at 6-1, leaving
[00:41:55] Hearts without a drop of
[00:41:57] blood. Benfica's coach considers the
[00:42:01] team's performance very positive. Marco Silva believes that the
[00:42:04] squad is improving. A very positive
[00:42:07] performance from our team, a first half of great
[00:42:11] quality, good quality, understanding that the team is improving, that we see things that we have
[00:42:15] been preparing, the first goal is a good example of that, also the way we managed
[00:42:18] to do it. I had asked the players to have a strong start to the game, and that's
[00:42:22] what we had. It's always important to score early, but not just scoring, the way we started strong,
[00:42:26] trying to play offensively as was our responsibility
[00:42:29] as well, and good moments from the team, good moments of
[00:42:33] reaction, we managed to win in higher zones, contrary to what had happened
[00:42:37] in the last few games, and that's why we managed to have the first half
[00:42:40] practically controlled. Braga defeated Dinamo
[00:42:44] Minsk 1-0 in the third qualifying round of the Conference
[00:42:48] League and has an advantage for the second leg. Ricardo Horta
[00:42:51] scored the only goal of the
[00:42:53] match from a penalty. In the role of favorite for this
[00:42:57] eliminatory, Braga wanted to play at home, to get a result that would allow
[00:43:01] them to travel more confident for the second
[00:43:04] leg. Carlos Vicente's team was dominant, but
[00:43:07] clear opportunities were not.
[00:43:24] showing that the night was not one of great precision. Almost at
[00:43:28] halftime, Braga took a narrow lead. Handball from
[00:43:32] Ivanov and a penalty that Ricardo Horta
[00:43:35] scored, 1-0 at 45
[00:43:38] minutes. The Belarusian team did almost nothing
[00:43:42] offensively, but came very close to an equalizer in the
[00:43:45] 74th minute. Braga ended up winning 1-0,
[00:43:48] and goes into the second leg with an advantage in Bulgaria. That's where Dinamo
[00:43:52] Minsk has played its European matches due to the prohibition imposed by UEFA on
[00:43:55] Belarus because of the country's involvement in the war
[00:43:58] in Ukraine.
[00:44:01] Braga's coach says it's always
[00:44:03] difficult to win games at European level, especially when the
[00:44:07] season has just started.
[00:44:10] to think, we are a team that
[00:44:13] has had to start competing two weeks ago, eh, but we
[00:44:17] are still in the process of getting
[00:44:20] in shape, eh, because these are the
[00:44:24] pre-seasons, and do not forget that this is a
[00:44:27] European eliminatory and that winning European matches
[00:44:31] is never easy, never easy, we cannot
[00:44:33] underestimate eh, the quality, the organization
[00:44:37] and the good work of the opponent
[00:44:40] we had today, Dinamo Minsk, a team that is leader of the Belarusian league, some will
[00:44:46] what you want, the reality is what it is, winning matches in Europe
[00:44:49] is difficult. Sporting has another reinforcement that
[00:44:53] should arrive at Alvalade this weekend, Irancunda will sign a contract
[00:44:57] until 2031, the Lions reached an agreement with Watford
[00:45:01] for the signing of the Australian winger who will cost 15
[00:45:04] million euros plus three in variables. The
[00:45:07] 20-year-old player arrived in Europe to play in
[00:45:11] Bayern Munich's second team, he was then loaned
[00:45:14] to Grasshopper last season, he played 40 games
[00:45:18] for Watford and scored four goals. For the Australian
[00:45:21] national team, Iran Kunda played 19
[00:45:25] matches.
[00:45:30] Benfica filed a complaint with the Portuguese Football Federation because
[00:45:34] of the appointment of referee Gustavo Correia for the match between Gil
[00:45:38] Vicente and Rio Ave. The referee was reprimanded for
[00:45:41] false accusation, following the controversial Famalicão
[00:45:45] Benfica match last season. Gustavo Correia was punished
[00:45:49] with a reprimand for having included in the match report
[00:45:52] facts that did not correspond to the truth about the behavior of the Eagles' General
[00:45:56] Director, Mário Branco. Given what happened, the Reds
[00:45:59] expected Gustavo Correia to be kept out of appointments for the first matchday
[00:46:03] of the championship, which did not happen, leading to this
[00:46:06] complaint from the Luz Club to the Arbitration Council.
[00:46:10] "The national football championship kicks off this Friday,
[00:46:14] Marítimo and Académico de Viseu are back in the first league
[00:46:18] which will once again have the so-called 'big three' as the strongest candidates for the
[00:46:22] title."
[00:46:26] We wait to see that report
[00:46:29] on the match that kicks off
[00:46:33] the
[00:46:34] league.
[00:46:45] And it's all going to start again, the national football championship kicks off this
[00:46:48] Friday and Futebol Clube do Porto will defend the title won.
[00:47:25] from Alvalade comes one of the Dragons' strongest opponents in the race for the
[00:47:28] title. The 30 million that Sporting paid to Braga for Salazar
[00:47:32] make the Uruguayan one of the Lions' greatest hopes for the new
[00:47:35] season. Rui Borges has a much remodeled squad that already includes
[00:47:39] six other reinforcements: Ibrahim Abah, Anderson
[00:47:42] Dumbialtimira, Pedro Lima and Jesse Derry. The departures of
[00:47:46] Hulman, Morita, Kenda, Trincão and Mangas necessitated this, but did not
[00:47:50] diminish confidence. It will always be a very competitive team, with
[00:47:53] energy, a good, positive vibe of
[00:47:56] good demands, and I think that's what it will continue
[00:47:59] to be. Benfica is the one of the three chronic contenders for the
[00:48:03] title that is still most under construction, precisely because they
[00:48:06] even have a new coach, Marco Silva, who wants a dominant team
[00:48:10] and a team that is capable of uniting the great
[00:48:13] strength of Benfica, which are its fans, with the team. Gabriel Indio, Lenglet,
[00:48:17] and John Duran have already arrived at Luz, but the Eagle
[00:48:20] still wants to capture more... until the end of August to balance
[00:48:24] a squad where the departures of Otamendi and António
[00:48:28] Silva were particularly noticeable. In Braga
[00:48:31] lives the already called "fourth big" team. The Arsenalist team enters the new season with
[00:48:34] full pockets after the 60 million earned from the departures of
[00:48:38] Orneycheck and Zalazar. Carlos Vincents
[00:48:40] also said goodbye to other important members of the team, but in
[00:48:44] return received seven new faces. Right next door,
[00:48:48] Famalicão lost Hugo Oliveira to Strasbourg, but for the promising
[00:48:51] coach's spot, the club led by Miguel Ribeiro brought in one of the best
[00:48:55] in national football, Carlos
[00:48:59] difficult mission of improving, or at least matching, last
[00:49:02] season's fifth place. The goal for Marítimo
[00:49:05] and Académico de Viseu should not be so ambitious. This
[00:49:09] season, they are back among the big names in Portuguese
[00:49:11] football.
[00:49:15] The Minister of Culture, Youth and Sport guarantees that nothing will
[00:49:18] jeopardize the best World Cup ever and that Portugal
[00:49:22] is committed with Spain, but also with Morocco. Margarida Bolceiro Lopes
[00:49:25] reacts this way to the challenge launched by Libel for Portugal to retreat, or
[00:49:29] rather, refuse to co-organize the 2030 World Cup with
[00:49:33] Morocco. The government is totally
[00:49:37] committed, with those who are our partners, with Spain and with
[00:49:40] Morocco, to organize the 2030 World Cup. We want
[00:49:44] it to be an event of excellence from the sporting
[00:49:48] competitive point of view, but we also want it to be a high moment
[00:49:51] of encounter between peoples and cultures. It is the first time we will
[00:49:55] unite, not just three countries, but two continents. That's why
[00:49:58] it will be a unique, singular World Cup, and therefore
[00:50:02] our commitment is to make this
[00:50:06] World Cup the best World Cup ever, and that is it, this World Cup
[00:50:09] will not be at stake, and that is the position of the
[00:50:13] been working, there are several government areas, obviously, in addition to the
[00:50:17] sports area, precisely eh
[00:50:19] committed to ensuring that this...
[00:50:29] this Thursday, the last jump of his career. The Olympic triple jump champion said goodbye with his
[00:50:33] family and admits that he may take on a role in sports management
[00:50:37] in the future. Valid, super
[00:50:41] valid,
[00:50:44] show at the time of the goodbye, this was the last jump of Nélson
[00:50:48] Évora's career, it's difficult because you have
[00:50:51] to control your emotions, right? But anyway, it
[00:50:55] has to be, it's the end of a cycle and I did everything
[00:50:58] I wanted to do here in this world of sport,
[00:51:02] I am fortunate.
[00:51:05] At 42 years old and after having been national champion, the Portuguese
[00:51:09] who won Olympic gold said goodbye with his family
[00:51:12] present, it's unique, it's magical, it was much
[00:51:16] better than I ever dreamed of, and to be
[00:51:20] able to hear my daughter playing at the track,
[00:51:24] where I jumped so many times and pursued my dreams,
[00:51:26] it's really symbolic, it's huge,
[00:51:30] and having her here is
[00:51:33] spectacular.
[00:51:36] In the triple jump, besides Olympic gold, Évora won much
[00:51:40] more. Among his achievements, highlights include world champion
[00:51:43] and European champion titles. For the future, he doesn't rule out
[00:51:47] sports management. We have to continue what have always been
[00:51:51] the banners that we defended, yes,
[00:51:54] a project in that sense, for now, not immediately,
[00:51:58] but yes, the memories will always remain, the
[00:52:01] most special in Beijing, strength.
[00:52:05] for the jump in the
[00:52:06] games,
[00:52:12] if you know,
[00:52:15] spectacular, Arnaldo, Pedro, all my
[00:52:17] colleagues have retired, I join them.
[00:52:21] Very good indeed, thank you
[00:52:24] for this lap of
[00:52:28] honor. It's a dream, I think any
[00:52:31] Portuguese dreams of it.
[00:52:35] To take a lap with the Portuguese flag, hear the anthem.
[00:52:38] Thank you, Portugal, so thank
[00:52:41] you very much, thank
[00:52:42] you all.
[00:52:51] Cyclist Francisco Campos won the first road stage of
[00:52:54] the Tour of Portugal and Rui Oliveira is the new
[00:52:58] leader of the
[00:52:59] race.
[00:53:02] west, all new and with 21 nationalities in the
[00:53:06] race, a strong possibility and besides the impressively beautiful
[00:53:09] landscape, the climbs of the second half of the stage
[00:53:13] surprised someone, turning the hypothesis of an
[00:53:16] idyllic day into a nightmare, as
[00:53:19] Julius Yohanson can tell you, for the Dane's ability,
[00:53:23] the first leader of the tour, it wasn't even necessary for the wall of the Moors
[00:53:27] to take away his spirit of conquest, for some
[00:53:30] reason, steep, Sintra has spectacular
[00:53:33] views and... and clear, it became
[00:53:36] clear that in the light, the tour another leader. Rui
[00:53:40] Oliveira once again thought about victory, but couldn't keep up with
[00:53:44] Daniel Caviar da Burgos and Francisco Campos do Tavira,
[00:53:47] the author of the first sprint victory in the first stage. A victory
[00:53:51] in the Algarve, curiously, before the tour packed up and left for good.
[00:53:54] Yes, despite fourth place in the stage, this was when Rui Oliveira wore
[00:53:58] the yellow jersey at the Palace of Queluz, heir to his
[00:54:01] teammate's position, who just the day before.
[00:54:07] And with this change of the yellow jersey within the same team, Rui Oliveira
[00:54:11] speaks of a dream
[00:54:12] come true.
[00:54:15] A simple gesture anticipated what the road would confirm, the farewell
[00:54:18] to the Yellow was the most probable scenario. What was not expected was that
[00:54:22] the owner of the much desired jersey would break down so much
[00:54:25] and in the end the photo of the day did not turn out so
[00:54:28] perfect.
[00:55:06] Today I wear yellow, hah,
[00:55:08] tomorrow an entire stage in yellow,
[00:55:12] uh, I'm going to try to enjoy it, ah, I know
[00:55:16] that many people are happy for me. Francisco Campos
[00:55:19] won the sprint at the finish line at the Queluz National Palace,
[00:55:23] on a very difficult day for the team, the end brought the best
[00:55:26] compensation. With this, with this climb to Sintra, it ended up selecting
[00:55:29] the group a little more and favoring me even more because
[00:55:33] pure sprinters don't usually make it. and that favors me immensely, it ended up
[00:55:37] being an extraordinary day for me and
[00:55:40] uh, I'm very happy, I was at the
[00:55:43] finish line
[00:55:45] it was crooked uh, so we had
[00:55:49] Noah who had to abandon today,
[00:55:52] Afonso, who is our leader, ended up getting a flat tire
[00:55:55] during the climb on the second mountain of the day
[00:55:59] and exchanging bikes with a teammate, losing the front group
[00:56:03] and in fact things
[00:56:06] were ah, it's one of those sayings, it seems like everything is going
[00:56:10] to go wrong, then you arrive and
[00:56:13] this happens which
[00:56:17] was almost better than when everything goes well. This Friday, the arrival in
[00:56:21] Albufeira will be another great opportunity for the fastest men of
[00:56:25] the peloton.
[00:56:28] And we are now talking about the 25 de Abril bridge in Lisbon, which was inaugurated
[00:56:32] 60 years ago. An essential infrastructure
[00:56:35] for mobility requires regular procedures to ensure the safety of the
[00:56:38] crossing. This is the case of monthly inspections and daily
[00:56:42] routines.
[00:56:47] We start on the ground floor, where the
[00:56:50] cars drive.
[00:56:53] João and Vítor will take us down there and
[00:56:57] then up there.
[00:57:00] We walk 300 to the
[00:57:04] the... You need a key to enter
[00:57:08] and
[00:57:10] pass through the door, which is 40
[00:57:14] As deslocações são também inspeções.
[00:57:17] Vítor is always attentive, this has
[00:57:20] millions of bolts and most of them have been here since the 60s
[00:57:23] and we've never had any major problems, if one breaks or another, we go
[00:57:27] there and replace them. Inside the pillar we will walk in
[00:57:30] cubicles of little more than 1 m2, passing through
[00:57:34] equally small doors, climbing and
[00:57:37] descending stairs to reach dozens of landings
[00:57:40] separated by hatches.
[00:57:44] The shoe is 24 levels below the table.
[00:57:48] almost at river level,
[00:57:51] this is where we find the divers, we are going to start
[00:57:54] the underwater inspection of the 25 de
[00:57:57] Abril bridge,
[00:58:00] at that inspection level there is no relevant anomaly to
[00:58:04] report, not that I saw,
[00:58:05] no.
[00:58:08] Oh, it was free there, I didn't stop
[00:58:11] now, they are finishing another day
[00:58:15] of inspection at the base of the pillar.
[00:58:18] This was good here with the tide, we had a bit less time
[00:58:22] to work with such big tides, but we managed to complete the object of
[00:58:25] millions. Today they were removing mussels, this instrument
[00:58:29] is a scraper that we use to remove mussels and all the life that is
[00:58:33] aggregated and attached to the surface of the pillar, if we don't remove the mussels
[00:58:36] we can't check if there is any damage or
[00:58:40] any fissure. Underwater
[00:58:42] inspections on this bridge are carried out every 5 years, the
[00:58:46] inspections were not...
[00:58:50] Vítor now takes us up there, we're going to
[00:58:54] climb 70 levels, 196 meters
[00:58:57] inside the steel structure.
[00:59:01] 2/3 are done inside an elevator about 75
[00:59:04] cm2, without it we would have to climb
[00:59:07] 650 stairs. The
[00:59:10] ascent inside the elevator will last 3 minutes
[00:59:14] and 40 seconds.
[00:59:18] before reaching the top, it is still necessary to overcome seven more
[00:59:21] levels and a
[00:59:23] padlock.
[00:59:28] I like to come up here because it's always different, either the tide is higher or
[00:59:32] lower, or there are new boats or planes passing by. Today is the day to check the
[00:59:35] lights, I got up there, I just confirmed that the lighthouse is
[00:59:38] on,
[00:59:40] because it's one of the obstacles for airplanes and it has to be always working. I took the opportunity to check
[00:59:44] the lighting alignments if any bulb might be burnt out, then
[00:59:48] we can schedule its replacement. I also took the opportunity to check the spacers of the
[00:59:51] suspension cables, because there might eventually
[00:59:55] be a slight deviation and we immediately notice
[00:59:57] them.
[01:00:00] We always have a map of things to check and since I'm up here, it allows me to see
[01:00:04] this entire half of the bridge with an end. We
[01:00:07] do inspections daily,
[01:00:09] monthly, annually. We always do inspections, it's
[01:00:13] always in good condition, that is, whoever built it, built it well and we are completely at ease.
[01:00:18] With Vítor, there are 26 people who watch over the bridge,
[01:00:22] every day they watch the steel and the iron, but from time to time down
[01:00:25] there, there are other travelers who steal their
[01:00:28] gaze.
[01:00:35] We now invite you to see with us some highlights from the front pages of this Friday's
[01:00:38] newspapers that we are receiving, starting with the weekly Nascer do
[01:00:42] Sol bringing as its headline Luís Neves' friend who also did work
[01:00:46] on the house of... the financial director of the judicial police, in July
[01:00:50] adds Nascer do Sol, the Mai awarded 4.5
[01:00:53] million to DST, the works in
[01:00:56] the guard are leaking water. Regarding all these controversies involving
[01:01:00] Minister André Ventura, it asks what he would do if Carneiro, also referring
[01:01:04] to Portugal, which is already the country in Europe with the largest burnt area, the firefighters
[01:01:07] fail to fight the fires, civil protection accumulates errors in fighting
[01:01:11] the fires, the government will not interfere in the
[01:01:15] audit of the finances of RTP's accounts. This is another highlight
[01:01:18] on this front page, looking now at the national
[01:01:24] tells us that in 2025 almost as many people died
[01:01:28] on the road as 10 years ago. In photography, Carlos
[01:01:31] Espaião, a film that helps to follow the comet's
[01:01:34] trail. Portugal also in the title with three heat
[01:01:38] waves that caused 680 more deaths. A new
[01:01:42] shipment, Russian gas imports rise to 8% of the national
[01:01:45] total and still... the year when the
[01:01:49] streets are covered with paper flowers in Campo Maior, we will
[01:01:53] also see a call on the front page of today's edition of
[01:01:57] Público. Looking at Diário de
[01:02:00] Notícias, Portugal is producing much more wine
[01:02:03] than the market wants, this is one of the main highlights. Seguro
[01:02:07] in Belém is also in a photograph. 6 months after the election,
[01:02:11] prudence begins to appear, absence, questions the
[01:02:14] newspaper, also a reference to the controversies involving.
[01:02:18] the pressure increases with the audit by the APJ
[01:02:21] ordered by Rita Júdice, the process in the Court of Accounts, still
[01:02:25] the budget with the expense for the solidarity supplement for
[01:02:28] the elderly. Decelerating and the number of beneficiaries also on the
[01:02:32] side we read about the United States that Trump points
[01:02:36] to Hexet and Hexet to his vice. It's about a lack of
[01:02:39] ammunition, health also in the headline, private examination centers
[01:02:43] want the basic law amended and the status adequate to the sector and also a
[01:02:46] report on the corridor, the waiting cell when the border does not
[01:02:50] open at Lisbon
[01:02:52] airport.
[01:02:54] Jornal de Notícias tells us that only a third of the support for buying
[01:02:58] stoves and cylinders goes to the poorest, the majority
[01:03:02] of beneficiaries of the ELAR are middle
[01:03:05] class. JN also tells us about a young man
[01:03:08] suspected of using the family car to steal gold
[01:03:12] bars in Gondomar, in the main highlight,
[01:03:16] Benfica's victory over Hearts by 6-1, European
[01:03:19] passion and
[01:03:21] also a highlight for Braga who won against Dinamo Minsk
[01:03:25] by 1-0. In the headline, the Tour of Portugal by bicycle,
[01:03:29] newcomer Oliveira wears an unprecedented yellow jersey,
[01:03:33] also a reference to the league with a new season that will have
[01:03:36] more goals and more useful playing
[01:03:39] time. Let's now look at
[01:03:43] the front pages of the specialized press. The weekend business
[01:03:46] section talks about the Inter bank losing a lawsuit in the Supreme Court in
[01:03:49] the case of the bankrupt Soares da Costa. We also highlight
[01:03:53] Jurassic Portugal, which many know but few can
[01:03:56] visit. Also a reference to the
[01:04:00] dividing the sector, the subscription of certificates in the EP
[01:04:03] of CTT, which reaches a record. Also a reference to
[01:04:07] wage discrimination, the deadline to complain does not
[01:04:10] meet the European minimum.
[01:04:14] In the economic newspaper, headline with a statement,
[01:04:18] Portugal has one of the most aged parks in the European
[01:04:21] Union, also highlighted is the prolonged drought and
[01:04:25] low river flows that threaten the country's
[01:04:28] economy. In larger letters, we read that
[01:04:31] the majority increased the minimum wage more than
[01:04:35] Portugal, and here at the bottom of the front
[01:04:38] page, the Odyssey that gives new life to giant screens and IMAX
[01:04:41] breaks records on the
[01:04:43] stock market.
[01:04:46] And finally, the sports newspaper Jogo, with full hearts, the
[01:04:50] convincing performance and the robust
[01:04:53] result leave the Eagles already thinking about the Europa League
[01:04:57] play-off. Marco Silva states that the goals and performance of the
[01:05:01] team allowed for management, also a reference
[01:05:04] to Henrique Calisto
[01:05:08] who says he is the right coach in the post-Ronaldo
[01:05:11] era. In Portugal we have around 200
[01:05:14] coaches.
[01:05:22] And now Setúbal, one of the summer attractions for its
[01:05:25] beaches and gastronomy, with fried cuttlefish
[01:05:29] being the most... we show you a restaurant that combines Portuguese
[01:05:33] and French
[01:05:33] cuisine.
[01:05:40] In the center of Setúbal, with a view of the Sado
[01:05:43] estuary, this is the meeting point for those looking for
[01:05:47] fresh fish or typical fried cuttlefish.
[01:05:51] Whenever possible, we stop at this restaurant, which is a must,
[01:05:54] it's a tradition almost, where we eat the great
[01:05:58] specialties of Setúbal. Our house with its own name
[01:06:02] is Peixoco, we have a lot of fish, a lot of cuttlefish, we
[01:06:05] have grilled cuttlefish, it's a great dish and grilled shrimp, these are the
[01:06:09] dishes, these are the appetizers that come out very
[01:06:12] often, but we also have fried cuttlefish which
[01:06:16] is the house's recipe. The dream of opening a
[01:06:20] restaurant was born from the curiosity to try
[01:06:23] new dishes, after some years working in
[01:06:26] hospitality we wanted to open a business, we didn't really know... because
[01:06:30] this is a bit crazy, first
[01:06:34] we really liked to eat out and that helped us
[01:06:36] to make a little decision about the path we wanted
[01:06:40] to take, then it also helps that Constance's brother is a
[01:06:44] hotelier, not here in Portugal, but in
[01:06:47] Paris and in several cities in France, we ended up having a lot of
[01:06:51] that support. The space belongs to a young
[01:06:53] couple, she is French, he is
[01:06:56] Portuguese, the fusion of cultures is felt in every...
[01:07:00] dish, we started working more on Portuguese
[01:07:03] gastronomy, but always with a twist, then
[01:07:06] we adapt sometimes with French
[01:07:10] techniques, our bitoque is a very simple thing,
[01:07:13] okay? But then it has a reduction, it has a
[01:07:17] meat jus that ends up being a technique that originated in France
[01:07:21] and it's one of the most important gastronomy techniques in
[01:07:24] world gastronomy, which ends up being a
[01:07:27] reduction of the fat and juices of the
[01:07:30] meat, it makes any meat super
[01:07:33] unctuous and buttery. But what people look for most is grilled
[01:07:37] fish, the typical fried cuttlefish, it's a spot, it's
[01:07:41] a restaurant. It's a nice place, in a
[01:07:43] privileged area, we come here from
[01:07:47] time to time with family, the kids
[01:07:50] and one of the things we eat is fried cuttlefish,
[01:07:54] we live in Paris with my family, my mother lives in Lisbon
[01:07:57] and we came to spend a week of vacation here in Lisbon and surroundings,
[01:08:01] cuttlefish is typical here, so we're going to try it. After
[01:08:05] fish, there's no messing with fried cuttlefish, fried
[01:08:08] cuttlefish is sacred, grilled fish too.
[01:08:45] And there are options for all budgets, to have a
[01:08:49] restaurant for everyone, that's the first part of
[01:08:52] all and I think that's what has kept us in
[01:08:55] constant growth and with a lot of
[01:08:59] flow, we can work for all tastes and
[01:09:02] now all that's left is for us to anticipate some issues that will
[01:09:10] be... This Friday
[01:09:13] is the scheduled day for the setting of the grades
[01:09:17] for the second phase of the national exams for secondary and primary education, as well as the
