It was not the initial plan. The Magus, the film adaptation of John Fowles's novel, was to bring to the screen a story set on a remote Greek island, but the political instability caused by the coup of the colonels forced the production to look for an alternative. They found it in Mallorca.</p>]]></description>

According to their criticism, this union "does not hold any legal representation power over the rest of the lifeguards" and, furthermore, has recalled that the Council already held a meeting weeks ago with some of the lifeguards who provide their services this summer at various beaches in the municipality.</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[<p><img src="https://static1.ara.cat/clip/2d83b648-1133-4a11-95f0-03933c057a6f_16-9-aspect-ratio_default_0.jpg" /></p><p>The mayor of Calvià has signed a municipal decree due to the 2026 Football World Cup, which will take place between June 11 and July 19. The document establishes a series of rules aimed at reconciling the development of leisure activities with safety, citizen coexistence, and the rest of residents and tourists.The text establishes an exceptional time regulation for broadcasting certain matches. According to the City Council, through a statement, if a match starts within the establishment's ordinary opening hours, it will not be necessary to stop the activity of the premises or the terrace at the usual closing time, thus avoiding clients being left without seeing the end. Establishments will be able to extend closing time up to 15 minutes after the end of the match, including extra time and penalty shootouts. It is important to note that this time exception will apply exclusively to matches played by the national teams of Spain, Germany, England, and Scotland, in addition to the semi-final matches, the final, and the third-place play-off.Conversely, if the match starts at or after the official closing time of the public establishment, it will not be able to keep its doors open and must strictly adhere to the time stipulated in the ordinary license.The decree consolidates a series of coexistence rules that were already implemented during Eurocopa 2024, an event that took place with complete normality in Calvià under these same guidelines: in terraces and outdoor areas, from midnight the audio emission must be completely suppressed, and the volume will be set to zero. Only the visual signal of the matches may be broadcast to ensure the rest of neighbors and tourists.Likewise, screens and televisions must always be oriented towards the inside of establishments. The measure aims to prevent public space crowds that could hinder the passage of pedestrians and road traffic.The Calvià Town Hall warns that non-compliance with the provisions of this decree, as well as with the applicable Municipal Ordinances, will be subject to sanction. Therefore, establishment owners are appealed to collaborate in preventing any disturbance to safety and coexistence.</p>]]></description>

The Council maintains that the budget consolidates financial stability and allows for planning for the next fiscal year. The municipal government states that the budget continues the improvement of public services, with a particular focus on citizen security, and strengthens social, cultural, and educational policies. One of the key points is investment in infrastructure: €43 million is earmarked over the course of this term, the highest figure ever recorded in the municipality. Among the highlighted projects are the second phase of the Gabriel Escarrer seafront promenade renovation (Magaluf), the refurbishment of Jaime I Avenue in Santa Ponça and the Peguera Boulevard, as well as the modernization of the houses on the Galatzó public estate and the Torrenova development. In the education sector, investments stemming from the agreement between IMEB and the Ministry of Education will continue, with €5.94 million allocated to improvements in 11 public preschool and primary schools. Free tuition for children aged 0-3 in municipal nurseries will also continue, along with year-round operation. The budget also includes the agreement with IB-Salut to build two new primary healthcare units in Son Ferrer and Peguera, and to relocate the existing one in Capdellà, with a planned investment of approximately €6 million. The City Council attributes the budget's approval to the support of the Balearic Government and the Council of Mallorca. The document is expected to be approved at an extraordinary plenary session, where the specific budget items and implementation schedule for 2026 will be detailed.  </p>]]></description>
