Vamos hoy a dar una vuelta de tuerca, al hecho no reconocido muchas veces por sus detractores, de que la fiesta nacional tiene engarzadas sus raíces en lo más profundo de la cultura, siempre y cuando, consideremos el lenguaje como una parte inalienable de la misma. Todas las profesiones, tienen un lenguaje específico que aquellos que las desempeñan conocen, pero que no necesariamente trascienden al uso común del pueblo llano que las hace suyas y las utiliza, incorporándolas a su lenguaje tanto culto, como al más coloquial. Pongamos un ejemplo. Ante un descosido en una prenda, nadie dice: “Parece que te lo han cosido con catgut”. El catgut, es un hilo que se utiliza en cirugía para coser una herida, y que tiene la particularidad por su naturaleza que es absorbido por los tejidos y desaparece.

Como verán, no es una expresión que se utilice en las conversaciones comunes, no ha trascendido, mientras que, si usted escucha a un padre decir a su hijo pequeño: “Aúpa”, usted comprende de inmediato que lo que el padre sugiere al niño es que se suba, o encarame a su espalda. Pues bien, el término “aúpa” viene de la denominación que se les daba a los picadores a los cuales por el hecho de ir a caballo se les denominaba “los aúpas” por razones que a nadie se le escapan, y como ésta, son decenas las expresiones que conviven con nuestra lengua, y que el pueblo y por tanto la R.A. E.L han incorporado a lo cotidiano contribuyendo a enriquecer el lenguaje y por tanto la comunicación pilar fundamental de la cultura y su transmisión.

A las primeras de cambio abandonó los estudios (Alusión al cambio de tercio)
¡A mí, no me torea nadie! (Sin comentarios)
Me sometieron a acoso y derribo en el trabajo (Faena de campo en las ganaderías)
¡Claro, a toro pasado es muy fácil criticar! (Cuando ya han pasado las cosas)
Al hilo de lo que estábamos hablando (Hilo, es cuando un toro persigue al torero)
Dar la alternativa (introducir en una actividad a alguien)
¡Atarse los machos! (Echarle valor) (los machos son parte del vestido de torear)
Ser de bandera Ser magnífico, excepcional.
Estar hasta la bandera. La bandera preside las corridas de toros, y se encuentra en la parte más alta. Estar lleno un recinto.
Barrera Lugar donde protegerse de las acometidas del toro. (Que bien se ven los toros desde la barrera) Que bien se está arriesgando poco.
Bregar. Trabajar “Ese empleado brega todo el día” Al igual que el peón que acompaña al matador y está pendiente de todo.
Brindar. Dedicar a alguien un acto como homenaje.
Cabestro. Animal manso que interviene en los traslados del ganado bravo. “Ese tío es un cabestro”.


Cambiar de tercio. Cambiar a otra parte de la lidia “Me quería hablar de su matrimonio, pero le cambie de tercio” Le cambió la conversación.
Casta. Compendio del carácter y la bravura (El Daimiel hizo valer su casta y le dio la vuelta al partido”
Coger al toro por los cuernos. Echarle valor, y enfrentarse a los problemas.
Cortarse la coleta. Acto que llevan a cabo los matadores cuando se retiran, y por extensión, simbólicamente aquél que cesa en una actividad.


Dar la puntilla. Acto con que el puntillero termina con la vida del toro. “Me han dado la puntilla…me han despedido del trabajo”.
Dar largas. La larga, es un tipo de pase en el que el torero se quita de encima al toro sacándolo por un lateral. “No me vayas dando largas y contéstame de una vez”
Desarme. Cuando el torero pierde el estoque o la muleta quedando a merced del toro. “Con lo que me dijo, me dejó desarmado”
Desplante. Cuando voluntariamente, el torero se desarma como demostración de dominio sobre el toro y se queda a escasos centímetros de él. “No sé cómo aguantas ese desplante”
Echar un capote. Cuando alguien hace un quite arrojando un capote u otro objeto con el fin de distraer al toro en su acometida. Arrimar el hombro. “No tenían para pagar la luz, y les eché un capote con la factura”.


En corto y por derecho. Acción en el momento de entrar a matar. Cuando uno aborda los problemas sin dilación y sin dar rodeos.
Entrar al trapo. Atender el toro al engaño que le ofrece el torero. “Si llego a entrar al trapo, se lía la de San Quintín”
Escurrir el bulto. Esquivar una colada del toro. Apartarse a tiempo con un quiebro. “Viendo la que se estaba formando, escurrí el bulto y me fui a casa”
Pegar la “Espantá” Salir corriendo en evitación de males mayores. Huir como un cobarde.
Espontáneo. Alguien ajeno a la lidia que irrumpe en la misma. Se le podría llamar un caso de intrusismo profesional.
Estar al quite. Pendiente de que el toro no termine cogiendo a un compañero que desempeña otra labor en ese momento. Tutelar a alguien. “Había que estar al quite por si las cosas se ponían feas”

Estar de capa caída o Para el arrastre. Retirar las mulillas al toro una vez muerto Estar sin hacer nada, derrotado. “Estaba de capa caída y me fui de la fiesta” “Bebió tanto, que estaba para el arrastre”
Faena. Conjunto de acciones que lleva el matador con la muleta. Se utiliza para decir que hay mucho trabajo “Aquí hay faena” o para indicar que nos han hecho un perjuicio “Menuda faena me ha hecho mi vecino”
Farol. Un pase que no conlleva mucho riesgo. “Se estaba tirando un farol”
La hora de la verdad. El punto culminante de la faena, entrar a matar, resolver algo de una vez. “Bueno, hasta ahora no era muy difícil, ahora llega el momento de la verdad”
Como podrán comprobar queridos lectores hay un sinfín de frases y refranes que jalonan nuestras conversaciones sin que caigamos en la cuenta.


“Los toreros en las plazas y los cómicos en las tablas” o lo que es lo mismo: Zapatero a tus zapatos.
Ese es un “marrajo”, que es un toro de poco fiar. O, “menudo Miura” haciendo alusión a la fiereza de alguien comparándolo con la proverbial de la famosa ganadería.
“Música maestro” Aquel que reclama un apoyo o una recompensa ante un trabajo bien hecho.
No hay quinto malo. Antiguamente, se dejaba para lidiar en ese lugar al toro que ofrecía más garantías.
Para torear y casarse hay que arrimarse. Hay tareas que requieren cierta dosis de valor.


Parar los pies Frenar con lances de recibo las primeras acometidas del toro en plenitud de fuerza. “A fulano habrá que pararle los pies”
Pasarse de castaña oscuro. Antiguamente, se creía que los toros de ese color eran más fieros y bravos, tanto más si el color era castaño oscuro.
Pinchar en hueso. Clavar el estoque fuera de lugar blando. Que te enfrentas a algo que te supera. “Para mí, que con esa chica ha pinchado en hueso”.
Ponerse hecho un toro. Aludiendo a la proverbial fortaleza de los astados.
Ponerse el mundo por montera. Que actúa a tontas y a locas importándole un pito lo que suceda.
Recibir un revolcón. rematar la faena, salir por la puerta grande, ser un “figura”. Si el tiempo no lo impide o, tener más valor que el Guerra.
Bueno, en algún momento hay que terminar, no se diga que no hay “vergüenza torera”. La intención, no ha sido otra que reclamar su atención a cerca del hecho de que el mundo de los toros, contribuye con su grano de arena a fraguar la argamasa con que se sostiene el lenguaje español, un patrimonio al que no deberíamos renunciar jamás.

    FAQs About Law Firm Case Management Software
    If you are not familiar with case management software, these frequently asked questions may help you understand why your law firm needs to invest in high-quality case management software.

    WHAT IS CASE MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE?
    Managing legal cases requires a system for keeping up with detailed information about each case. Case management begins before your client hires your law firm. You need an effective way to perform conflict checks before your client signs a retainer agreement.

    Throughout the case, there could be hundreds or thousands of documents to organize, deadlines to monitor, statements to process, and other details that must be analyzed and organized into categories that are easy to search.

    You also have billing, client communications, contact information, appointment scheduling, court information, and case notes to organize and manage.

    After closing the case, you need a system for storing and archiving the case that allows for continued conflict checks. You may also need to access information in one case to assist with a matter in a related case or similar case.

    Today, digital files must be stored, organized, and cataloged. The days of managing legal cases by hand are over.

    WHAT CAN CASE MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE DO FOR MY PRACTICE?
    Gathering, analyzing, and organizing large amounts of information, data, and documents is a significant element of case management. Many lawyers, paralegals, and case managers have multiple cases they handle. As a result, the volume of data can be overwhelming.

    Case management software provides an efficient way to collect and organize data.

    Many software programs link to email, telephone, and other systems to create calls and message logs. The information is stored in the client’s file immediately.

    Tracking contacts with clients, including calls and emails, through the software help to ensure that you do not miss anything.

    Having all the information in one place makes it easy to:

    create reports,
    visualize evidence, and
    collaborate with other staff members.
    In addition, everyone within the law firm can access the case files and all information stored in the files from their desktop or tablet.

    WHAT ARE OTHER BENEFITS OF CASE MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE?
    In addition to managing the data, documents, and other information associated with a client’s case, there are other benefits of using case management software.

    REDUCE THE RISK OF MISTAKES
    Case management software can reduce the risk of human error. Mistakes happen when you are handling multiple cases and thousands of documents. Case management software completes many of the tasks automatically, which reduces the risk of errors and mistakes.

    For example, errors in transferring data to forms could be costly and time-consuming.

    When the data is contained in case management software, the software transfers the data ensuring there are no errors.

    ENHANCE SECURITY
    Lawyers have a fiduciary duty to protect confidential information. A data breach could result in the theft or exposure of sensitive information. Case management software can add another layer of security for data.

    The software also automatically backs up entire files to ensure that nothing is lost in case of a data breach or natural disaster.

    FACILITATE REMOTE WORK
    Lawyers and staff members can access client files and data from work, home, and other locations. In addition, case management software that is cloud-based allows employees to access data even when telecommuting.

    TRACK LEADS
    In addition to managing your current cases, case management software can help you track leads. An efficient, easy-to-use system to track and follow up with leads increases retention rates for the law firm.

    A lead can be entered into the system, forwarded to the correct person to respond, and scheduled for a follow-up. All information about the lead is in one location that is accessible to everyone.

    IMPROVE EFFICIENCY
    Case management software increases efficiency. Everyone working on a case can access and update information. Having data in a system that permits easy retrieval reduces the time it takes to locate information.

  6. Understanding COSC Accreditation and Its Importance in Horology
    COSC Validation and its Strict Criteria
    Controle Officiel Suisse des Chronometres, or the Controle Officiel Suisse des Chronometres, is the authorized Swiss testing agency that verifies the precision and accuracy of wristwatches. COSC accreditation is a mark of quality craftsmanship and reliability in chronometry. Not all timepiece brands follow COSC validation, such as Hublot, which instead sticks to its own stringent standards with movements like the UNICO, attaining equivalent accuracy.

    The Art of Precision Chronometry
    The central system of a mechanical timepiece involves the spring, which provides energy as it loosens. This mechanism, however, can be susceptible to external factors that may affect its accuracy. COSC-certified movements undergo demanding testing—over fifteen days in various circumstances (five positions, 3 temperatures)—to ensure their resilience and dependability. The tests evaluate:

    Typical daily rate accuracy between -4 and +6 seconds.
    Mean variation, peak variation levels, and effects of thermal changes.
    Why COSC Certification Is Important
    For timepiece aficionados and collectors, a COSC-certified watch isn’t just a piece of technology but a demonstration to enduring excellence and accuracy. It signifies a watch that:

    Provides exceptional reliability and accuracy.
    Provides assurance of quality across the whole construction of the timepiece.
    Is apt to retain its worth more efficiently, making it a smart investment.
    Famous Timepiece Manufacturers
    Several well-known manufacturers prioritize COSC accreditation for their watches, including Rolex, Omega, Breitling, and Longines, among others. Longines, for instance, offers collections like the Record and Soul, which highlight COSC-certified mechanisms equipped with innovative materials like silicone balance suspensions to improve durability and performance.

    Historical Context and the Development of Chronometers
    The notion of the timepiece originates back to the requirement for precise timekeeping for navigational at sea, emphasized by John Harrison’s work in the eighteenth cent. Since the official foundation of COSC in 1973, the validation has become a standard for judging the precision of luxury timepieces, maintaining a legacy of excellence in watchmaking.

    Conclusion
    Owning a COSC-certified watch is more than an visual selection; it’s a commitment to quality and accuracy. For those valuing precision above all, the COSC certification offers peace of mind, guaranteeing that each certified timepiece will perform reliably under various circumstances. Whether for personal satisfaction or as an investment decision, COSC-accredited watches stand out in the world of horology, carrying on a tradition of meticulous chronometry.
