They discover thirty Egyptian sarcophagi in Luxor. What does it mean to be asexual? Enrique and Meghan will take time off "to be with family." This is what you should know to start the day. First the truth.
1. Protests in Chile
Chile's interior minister, Andrés Chadwick, said Sunday that 103 “serious events” have been registered in the country and that more than 700 people have been arrested in the last hours. At least ten dead have been reported. Protests began in Santiago after the government proposed to increase the price of Metro tickets. The president of Chile, Sebastián Piñera, announced on Saturday that the ministers will suspend the plan, after declaring the state of emergency the day before. But the revocation has failed to stop the action.
2. Elections in Bolivia
This morning the OAS Electoral Observation Mission in Bolivia denounced via Twitter the interruption of “the transmission of preliminary results” of the elections in that country and requested that “the process of publication of the data of the computation be carried out smoothly”.
CNN consulted the spokesperson of the Electoral Tribunal, Antonio Costas, about the accusations made by the OAS and said that "they are in Sala Plena, with international computation," without giving a precise answer as to why no more results data have been published. .
Throughout the early morning the official page of the Plurinational Electoral Body (Supreme Electoral Tribunal of Bolivia) to recover the transmission of preliminary data reflected contradictions in the vote count in Bolivia. According to the figures of the electoral body itself, the transmission of the minutes favors Evo Morales, while the vote count favors Carlos Mesa.
In valid computed votes, Carlos Mesa obtains 50.35% of the votes and Evo Morales 34.01%.
Earlier, the Supreme Electoral Tribunal of Bolivia informed in a press conference that with 86% of the minutes recorded, the Movement to Socialism (MAS) of Evo Molares had 45, 28% of the votes and the Citizen Community of former President Carlos Mesa 38.16% so "the difference between the two is 7.11% which determines a second round according to preliminary information." Bolivian electoral law states that a second round is going when the difference between the first and second candidates is less than 10% of the votes counted.
3. This week, in the political trial investigation
Laura Cooper, deputy assistant secretary of defense, is scheduled to testify privately this Thursday in the US House’s political trial investigation into US President Donald Trump. Its portfolio includes Russia and Ukraine. Trump's interim chief of staff last week said the president froze nearly $ 400 million in US security assistance to Ukraine in part to pressure that country to investigate the Democrats.
4. US Secretary of Defense talk about syria
Defense Secretary Mark Esper is scheduled for a meeting of world defense ministers in Brussels this Thursday. He is expected to discuss violence in northern Syria, where Turkey launched an offensive against the allied Kurds of the United States. US Vice President Mike Pence announced a ceasefire last week, although Turkey called it a one-day break in the raid. Meanwhile, CNN observed hundreds of trucks carrying American personnel gathered near Hasakah, Syria, en route eastward, to the border with Iraq.
5. Canadians at the polls
On Monday, 338 parliamentary seats are available and, by extension, the mandate of liberal Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who has had a difficult campaign on account of the revelations that his face had been painted for an "Arab Nights" event. Trudeau was forced to apologize after Time, a CNN affiliate, published the photo of him with a brown make-up face when he was a teacher in 2001. However, he obtained key support from former US President Barack Obama. According to reports, medical care, the climate crisis and the cost of living are the main problems for voters.

The “Joker” stairs could be the new tourist attraction in New York
In the movie Joker, the protagonist, played by Joaquin Phoenix, dances down the stairs while Gary Glitter's "Rock and Roll Part 2" plays in the background. The scene was done so well that it has even become a widely used GIF.
What does it mean to be asexual? Asexuality is not celibacy or abstinence. This is what it is, and it is not
Many people have difficulty understanding how someone might not be interested in sex. Are they repressed? Are they afraid of privacy? Have you not met the right person yet?

The date of the day
20 years later.
It's been almost 20 years, but Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer Aniston still cause a sensation. The two actresses recreated a scene from the hit television show "Friends" in an interview, which Witherspoon then posted on Instagram.
The phrase of the day
"Nobody is coming here to trample our laws."
A Mexican commander walks in front of a line of troops, preparing them for the mission of the day on the border between the United States and Mexico. According to local media reports, the Mexican National Guard military police blocked a large group of migrants in Tuzantán, Mexico, who had been trying to head north. It is being argued that Mexico built the border wall of the president of the United States, Donald Trump, after all, not with concrete, bricks or steel, but with thousands of federal forces such as this commander dressed in camouflage and the troops following his orders.
