The town of Taboadela, in Ourense, has been the scene of a tragedy following the recent blackout that affected much of the Iberian Peninsula. An 81 and 77-year-old couple and their 56-year-old son were found dead in their home, allegedly due to carbon monoxide poisoning. According to preliminary investigations, the family had used an electric generator to power a respirator needed by one of its members, which could have led to the accumulation of the lethal gas inside the home.
The generator, installed in the lower part of the house, is believed to have malfunctioned, emitting carbon monoxide that spread throughout the house. A home help worker discovered the bodies after receiving no response when she arrived at the house. Emergency services arrived at the scene but were unable to save the victims.

Authorities have launched an investigation to clarify the exact circumstances of the events and have reiterated the importance of taking precautions when using electric generators. It is recommended not to install these devices in enclosed spaces and to ensure that they are properly ventilated to avoid the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning.

Jalen Brunson took off the hero’s cape, and the Knicks remain winless in a playoff series at MSG for 26 years
The New York Knicks' agonizing wait for a home playoff series win, now stretching 9,454 days, grew heavier after a 106-103 loss to the Detroit Pistons in Game 5 on April 29, 2025, at Madison Square Garden. Star guard Jalen Brunson struggled, scoring 16 points on 4-for-16 shooting, including 1-for-4 from three and 7-for-10 from the free-throw line, with seven assists, four turnovers, and four fouls in 36 minutes. The Pistons, who've dominated the Knicks at MSG this season with four wins in five games, extended New York's 26-year close-out game drought. Since their last home series-clinching victory on June 11, 1999, against the Indiana Pacers in the Eastern Conference Finals (90-82), the Knicks have gone 0-7 in close-out games at MSG, per Basketball-Reference. Honoring the late Dick Barnett, a Knicks icon, couldn't inspire a breakthrough. Detroit's Cade Cunningham dazzled […]
