He signed with EMI Colombia in 2009 and soon afterwards released the single "Ella Me Cautivó", which was reached number 35 on the Billboard Tropical Songs chart. His first international success was the one-night " Yo Te Lo Dije". J Balvin signed with Universal's subsidiary Capitol Latin, a year later.

The British Rail Class 373 or TGV-TMST train is an electric multiple unit that operates Eurostar's high-speed rail service between Britain, France and Belgium via the Channel Tunnel. Part of the TGV family, it has a smaller cross-section to fit within the constrictive British loading gauge, was originally able to operate on the UK third rail network, and has a lot of fireproofing in case of fire in the tunnel. This is both the second-longest——and second-fastest train in regular UK passenger service. In 2015, the new Eurostar class 374 (e320’s) started being rolled out making the class 373’s going for scrap. As of 2017, 11 sets remain in service. In 1997, Great North Eastern Railway (GNER) ordered a few trains for use on the ECML and were retired in 2005. TGV hired these trains on their lines. As of 2016, all units remain in storage with no plans to return to service. These trains also ran on third rail towards London Waterloo. As of 2017, all but a few TGV TMST’s are in new Eurostar Blue livery.
On 5 June 2000, 373101/102 on a Paris to London service derailed on LGV Nord near Arras, France at 180 mph (290 km/h). 14 people were treated for light injuries or shock, with no serious injures or fatalities. The articulated design was credited with maintaining stability during the incident and the train stayed upright. After investigation, the incident was blamed on a component of the transmission between the motors and axles coming loose. To reduce the unsprung mass, TGV trains have the motors attached to the train rather than the bogies. In order for the train to be able to go around curves a sliding "tripod" assembly is used, which became dislodged.
During the night of 18–19 December 2009, there was heavy snow causing widespread disruption to roads, railways and airports across northern Europe. Five trains (one of which was 373217 + 373218) broke down inside the Channel Tunnel because snow in the engine compartment was melted by warmer temperatures in the tunnel, the resulting water causing electrical and control system faults. Eurostar commissioned an independent report to evaluate what went wrong and how future events could be prevented or better managed. The report's recommendations included:
All Class 373 sets were built as tri-voltage, able to operate on 25 kV 50 Hz AC (LGVs, Eurotunnel, High Speed 1, UK overhead electrified lines) and 3 kV DC (Belgian classic lines) using pantographs, and 750 V DC (UK third rail network) using third-rail pickup shoes. The shoes were retracted when switching to overhead power. After the opening of High Speed 1in 2007, overhead electrification is used throughout and the third rail shoes had been removed. Five of the SNCF-owned sets are quadri-voltage, able to operate from 1,500 V DC (French "lignes classiques") in the south of France, used on London–Avignon and ski services.

Firoz Khan said about casting in an interview-"I didn't wanted to play Arjuna initially. My friends said to me that this role of Arjuna is of a 'womanizer' in the Mahabharata just similar to Ravana in the Ramayana. Arjuna was also the main rival of Karna(protagonist of the epic). So they advised to me avoid this role. I thought it was a negative role to play." Firoz said in an interview-'Chopra sir and Ravi Chopra were conducting auditions for different roles and almost everyone were lining for different roles in Mahabharata. Thousands of screen tests were being conducted. It also depended on the people if they were interested in playing the roles so whoever wanted to play a role in Mahabharata had to first fill the form and wait in a line. The entire Mahabharata had never been shown on screen except a 1978 movie-Daana Veer Soora Karna and Babubhai Mistry's Mahabharata in which there was hardly any scene on Arjuna. Newspapers, Pamphlets were distributed and whosoever wanted to play any role can fill the form and wait in the line. Several artists trying to make their career in Bombay filled the form. I called Mukesh Khanna-"Sir ji" because he was my senior, Mukesh also filled the form for Karna, Arjuna, Bhishma, Duryodhana, Dronacharya. Mukesh asked me to also fill the form in BR Studios. I was a junior artist so Mukesh advised me to fill the B-characters list. I filled the form casually without any interest. Actually, at that time we had only one movie- 'Daana Veer Soora Karna'- it was the most popular movie all over India. If someone had an idea about Mahabharata, it was through this movie. Since 1978, it was still running in theatres. I too watched that 4-hour movie but there was hardly any scene on Arjuna. So I had no idea about Arjuna's character specifically in the Mahabharata. I had some idea bout Gita but knew nothing of Arjuna in the Mahabharata. So from there, Mukesh Khanna was selected for Duryodhana which he rejected and was interested in Karna or Arjuna. Around 5 lakh people had filled the forms for different roles and lined up for auditions for their characters.

At times, Jelly fishes are washed across the shores as well.
The applications were released in the national newspapers. In morning of 13th June 1988, I opened the newspaper and it was no surprising that around 2 lakh artists had filled 'Karna' as their first preference, 96000 artists filled Bhima as their first one, 45000 artists for Abhimanyu and around 23000 artists for Arjuna as their first preference whereas only 2000 artists for Yudhisthira and Krishna. Even Mukesh sir had filled Karna as his first preference. Chopra sir got tensed for Krishna as artists showed no interest for playing the role and those who had filled the form had no background of acting. So, it was a hectic task for Gufi Paintal to cast Krishna as nobody was interested for that role. Around 55 Video Tests for Krishna was conducted, then Nitish Bhardwaj was called to play Nakula and he rejected and wanted to play Abhimanyu. Then Nitish Bhardwaj was finally selected for Krishna's role. Coming back to Arjuna, So only 9 actors had been selected for Arjuna whereas I was still among the B-grade characters. I thought I could come in the A-list as hardly anyone had filled for Yudhisthira and Nakula-Sahdev. Mukesh Khanna was a close friend of mines and Pankaj Dheer. Pankaj and me were friends since school days. So Mukesh Khanna was senior to Pankaj and me both. Mukesh advised to me to sign for any A-grade role as now there were so many roles in the A-list which were expected to be crowded but failed to garner impression among public. He told me to not fill for Karna unlike other artists as already 2 lakh artists including Mukesh himself was lined for Karna and moreover I was a Muslim and it was strictly followed that Karna and Krishna were to be played by Hindus as they were followed by so many people and worshipped. So apart from Karna and Krishna, there were 7 other A-grade characters. I filled all of them. Ravi Chopra asked some young actors to play Arjuna such as Jackie Shroff, he too rejected and demanded to take him as Karna. Govinda and Chunky Pandey were asked for Abhimanyu but he declined it after they bagged films. Anil Kapoor had a childhood dream to play Karna, he too was offered Arjuna but rejected it.
