Microsoft has released Edge 85, with a new mode that emulates Internet Explorer so you can browse old legacy websites that won't run in modern browsers. It's a niche problem, but occasionally older websites won't display correctly in Edge, Chrome, Firefox or their derivatives, with images in disarray and menus missing. You're not likely to encounter it often (certainly not frequently enough to keep an outdated browser installed on your desktop) but when it does happen, it's extremely frustrating. Now, when you encounter such a page you can choose to simply re-load it in Internet Explorer without leaving Edge. As Techdows explains, this feature has been available to business users for a little while, but now home users can benefit as well. A blast from the past To enable it, make sure you have the latest version of Edge, then click the menu icon at the top right and select 'Settings'. Select 'Default browser' from the list of options on the left (if you can't see this list, try making the browser window wider). Toggle the switch marked 'Allow sites to be reloaded in Internet Explorer mode' then restart Edge. Now, when you come across an incompatible site, just hit the menu button again, select 'More tools' and choose 'Reload page in Internet Explorer'. Occasionally the option won't be available and will be greyed out, but in our tests that only appeared to be the case on Edge's own settings pages.

As part of an advertising campaign, the eight-cylinder engine was modified and given an extremely aggressive image. Nebulus, the well-known winter clothing brand, decided to run a marketing campaign using a highly customized Audi RS 7 Sportback. As if the normal 600 horsepower and 800 Nm of torque of the German model were not enough, the company turned to HGP Turbo Retrofitting and 811 design to make a series of modifications to the 4.0-liter V8 engine, to obtain more power, and thereby retouch high performance. By altering the electronics, improving the intake system, imposing a new air filter, a better manifold and bigger turbos, the eight-cylinder gains an additional 362 Hp and 449 Nm of torque, for a brutal 962 Hp and 1249 Nm of torque. Although no data has been released on the acceleration capacity, it is a fact that the 0 to 100 km / h makes it less than 2.5 seconds, this is one second less than in the series model. In addition to improving the vehicle's performance through engine adjustments, a recalibration was also carried out on the suspension system, reducing the height of the body from the ground. Regarding aesthetics, Black Box-Richter, the Austrian company specializing in vinyl for automobiles, was used to achieve that the bodywork obtained a matt black appearance with silver decorations. From then on, the car maintains the same style with which it leaves the factory.

Forward of the Peruvian team he joined at the initiative of the NGO ‘La Casa de Alejita’, but did not imagine that he would receive a wave of criticism against him. Jefferson Farfán, forward of the Peruvian team, has participated with his best attitude in an aid campaign aimed at the children of Puente Piedra, organized by his childhood friend, Roberto Guizasola. What he did not imagine is receiving a wave of criticism for playing an improvised ‘pichanguita’ with other local children. Roberto Guizasola thanked, from his social networks, the collaboration of his friend in his NGO, ’La Casa de Alejita’. “There are moments in your life that you feel happy to see that one of my best friends Jefferson Farfán and José Carlos Zegarra have the same passion as one to give back to what soccer did with us and the group of people who have accompanied me from the beginning. Thank you very much in the Project ”, said the player from his Instagram account. May the joy of children never fade. Without studies, there is no football. Thank you ", ends Jefferson Farfán's friend, sharing photographs where you can also see Paolo Guerrero's mother. Guizasola: "People only see the bad" The images also generated some criticism, due to the fact that children are not allowed to participate in collective sports activities, despite wearing masks to avoid contagion of COVID-19. Faced with this situation, Roberto Guizasola decided to speak out to defend his former partner. “Those photos were taken to make a calendar to raise funds for the 30 children who live in the house. All existing protocols were met, but people only look at the bad, ”said the footballer. Ricardo Gareca gave a press conference where he announced the list of players who will start training for the Peruvian National Team. This Tuesday, Jefferson Farfán is expected to start the work thinking about the start of the Qatar 2022 World Cup Qualifiers.

Minister Jorge Montoya will have to explain how the intervention took place at the Thomas Restobar nightclub. New images show that the only door to the premises was closed, which contradicts the version that the National Police of Peru initially gave. The Inspection Commission of the Congress of the Republic summoned the Minister of the Interior, Jorge Montoya, for Tuesday, September 1, to answer for the appearance of new images of the police intervention in the Thomas Restobar nightclub, in Los Olivos, which left thirteen dead. Through an official letter, the head of that working group, Edgar Alarcón, indicated that the head of the Minister must report on the intervention carried out by the members of the Green Squad of the National Police of Peru in said establishment. It also specifies that this summons responds to the new images in which "you can see various facts that would be contrary to what was initially declared by the person in charge of the operation." The Commission will meet from 9:15 am, through a digital platform. A recording of the security cameras, which was broadcast by América Noticias, shows that the Police ordered the women in a line on the stairs to leave the premises. In addition, a police officer can be seen standing at the door, which was closed. This record contradicts the version given by the captain of the Police, José Amézquita, who was in charge of the operation and assured that the door was open during the intervention in the place and that it was closed due to the tumult. “The door was open, but with the crowd of people it closed and several people were trapped. Three policemen, including the one who speaks to them. We regret what happened, but this is due to people who do not obey the provisions that are given, "the captain told the press. Thirteen people, twelve women and one man, died on Saturday August 22 after participating in a clandestine party with more than 100 people, which was intervened by the Police.

Upcoming Ampere graphics cards, this time of the Palit flavor, have leaked out on the EEC registry (via Videocardz). We are just 5 days to NVIDIA's announcement of their brand new gaming lineup and speculation and leaks are running rampant as we enter into the crunch time for their next generation of GPUs. The registry features the codenames of NVIDIAs upcoming cards and as decoded by WhyCry they translate to the RTX 3090, RTX 3080, RTX 3070 and (and for the first time) the RTX 3060 respectively. Palits's RTX 3090, RTX 3080, RTX 3070 and RTX 3060 graphics cards spotted getting their EEC certification All integrated circuits are required to have EEC certification prior to launch and these are usually a very good indicator of foretelling and confirming various GPUs and launches. That said, while all GPUs that launch have to get an EEC certification not all GPUs that get an EEC certification actually end up on the shelves. With this particular leak, since we are fairly sure they refer to the RTX 3090, RTX 3080, RTX 3070 and RTX 3060 (this exists too!) respectively, we will be seeing these graphics cards fairly soon. Point of note: this is the first time we are seeing mention of an RTX 3060 and it is unclear whether this will be a thing. A total of 171 different SKUs were spotted at EEC. The following broad codenames can be seen: NVIDIA Palit RTX 3090 in plain vanilla, T, S and H flavors NVIDIA Palit RTX 3080 in plain vanilla, T, S and H flavors NVIDIA Palit RTX 3070 in plain vanilla, T, S and H flavors NVIDIA Palit RTX 3060 in plain vanilla, T, S and H flavors NVIDIA is shaking things up with the Ampere architecture and we will be seeing what is expected to be a massive leap in performance (driven both by hardware and software) compared to the last generation. If the hype NVIDIA is generating with their ultimate countdown is to be trusted (and you can usually trust NVIDIA when they say it's going to be exciting) then we should have something concrete within just 5 days at the time of writing. What we know about NVIDIA SKUs so far: Since we do not know the confirmed naming schemes yet, I will refer to these boards according to their board numbers and the RTX 2000 series card they are intended to replace. The crown jewel of NVIDIA's lineup is the PG132-10 board with 24GB of vRAM. It is going to be replacing the RTX 2080 Ti and is currently scheduled to launch in the second half of September. We then have the PG132-20 and PG132-30 boards, both of which are replacing the RTX 2080 SUPER graphics card and will have 20GB and 10GB worth of vRAM respectively. The PG132-20 board is going to be launching in the first half of October while the PG132-30 board is going to be launching in mid-September. It is worth adding here that these three parts are likely the SKU10, 20 and 30 we have been hearing about and the SKU20 is going to be targetted dead center at AMD's Big Navi offering (and hence the staggered launch schedule). Since AMD's Big Navi will *probably* have 16GB worth of vRAM, it also explains why NVIDIA wants to go with 20GB. The PG142-0 and PG142-10 are both going to be replacing the RTX 2070 SUPER and will feature 16GB and 8GB worth of vRAM respectively. While the PG142-10 has a known launch schedule in the second half of September, the PG142-0 board has no confirmed launch date yet. Finally, we have the PG190-10 board which is going to be replacing the RTX 2060 SUPER graphics card and will have 8GB of vRAM as well. The launch schedule for this board has not been decided yet either. September is shaping up to be an amazing month of tech enthusiasts with NVIDIA rolling out a brand new architecture (and series of graphics cards) and AMD finally pushing out Big Navi in the following few weeks as well. The Ampere series has had more leaks and rumors than any other series and as we enter into crunch time towards launch, many of these will be debunked or confirmed. We are also waiting to hear about more specifications from our sources and also a confirmation of the process node the Ampere series of GPUs will be manufactured at. Right now, the expected nomenclature of these cards is going to be the RTX 3000 series with a potential RTX 3090 in the mix for the first time as well. But please keep in mind that NVIDIA has previously skipped nomenclature tiers just to discredit the leak scene and may do so again. The shrouds we saw were only in the validation phase and it would be trivial for NVIDIA to change the naming scheme. The board numbers, however, would stay the same. Regardless of what NVIDIA decides to call it, this is shaping up to be one hell of a generation.

Now yes, here we have what we were all waiting for, the first action video of the Aprilia RS 660 2020 and pay attention because, in addition, the brand has announced the date of the start of pre-reservations. Now yes, here we have what we were all waiting for, the first action video of the Aprilia RS 660 2020 and pay attention because, in addition, the brand has announced the date of the start of pre-reservations. In the absence of a specific day, so we will have to be very attentive to their website, they have confirmed that pre-reservations will be accepted as of October. What you can do now is ask to be kept informed, so you will surely find out when the reservations open, and download the model catalog. At the moment they have not announced the price, but from the last post on the brand's social networks, we assume that they will soon reveal more information. 2020 Aprilia RS 660 facts As we already informed you in the month of June, it mounts a completely new 660cc inline twin engine derived from the 1100cc V4, for a weight of 169 kg. It features a Ø 41mm adjustable inverted fork, next-generation APRC package, ABS cornering, and TFT instrumentation. We can also confirm that there will be two graphic versions: Purple and Red (in homage to the RS 250 in its 1994 Replica Reggiani version) and a second option in black, with numerous bright red details. Finally, the brand highlights the structural similarities of the fairing with the Aprilia V4, with a triple-LED front headlight with DRL lights.

The Puebla striker is qualified to play for the Peruvian team. Ricardo Gareca has the last word regarding the possibility of considering it. Santiago Ormeño has Peruvian and Mexican nationality. Such a situation allows the Puebla striker to play for the 'Blanquirroja', although the possibility of summoning him depends solely and exclusively on coach Ricardo Gareca. They are aware of that possibility in Puebla, a team in which Santiago Ormeño plays. From the Mexican entity; however, they consider that, for now, all the information circulating in this regard are rumors. This was confirmed by the Chilean legend of the 'Camoteros' and current director of sports development of the institution, Carlos Poblete. "They are rumors. Officially, the club has not received any official notification about possible calls. Our coach is of Peruvian nationality (Juan Reynoso) and has a lot of contact with soccer there. There are rumors, as there are many in football, "he assured in an interview for the Puebla YouTube channel. "We must not hide that it would be good news for the institution and for him to be considered for a national team, such as the Peruvian team," he added. With three goals in five games so far in the Opening of the Liga MX, Santiago Ormeño confessed, for El Tridente Depor, that he likes the idea that his name may sound for a call, in some of the selections that he is allowed to represent . "I love the idea that it may sound for one team or for both, but I have not had any approach, therefore they are rumors. If the time comes, I will make a decision and do what I think is best for me, ”said the 26-year-old attacker.

The women fishermen in Quilca, a small coastal district, saw a project collapse that would increase their income and that positioned them as an example of fisheries sustainability. As soon as Karina Condori picked up the phone to give this interview, her husband came home with about 20 small fish. The man had gone out a few hours ago with his rope to fish from the rock for lunch that day, but he was lucky and managed to catch dinner as well and even one more meal. Karina's husband is a fisherman, but since March he has not been able to work because the pandemic has almost completely stopped fishing in the port of Quilca, a small coastal district in the Arequipa region where barely 700 people live, including him, his wife and her two children, 9 and 19 years old. On July 1, the Peruvian government lifted the quarantine in much of the country, but Arequipa remains confined due to the large number of infections by COVID-19. For this reason, if in Quilca about 150 boats normally went out to sea, today there are no more than 10, says Hugo Alarcón, the district mayor. Karina has not been able to work either. She is part of the Association of Women Entrepreneurs of the Port of Quilca, an initiative that brings together 33 women who work organized either fishing, landing the fish, preparing the nets or ice that the boats carry when they go out to sea, and even coordinating the fishing operations. The association, which is almost eight years old, has allowed the women of Quilca to have an income independent of that of their husbands, all of them fishermen too. For this reason, Karina likes to belong to her "because there are always little things to be able to stand out, not only to depend on the husband and as a woman to get ahead," she says. But the pandemic has stopped everything. It has been more than four months since not a single income reaches Karina's house, except for a 760 soles bond that the government gave her. With that money she was able to buy rice, oil, sugar, noodles, milk, tuna, salt, beans, but all that “I already ate it”, she says. Even so, Karina does not worry because "there is always enough for the pot," she says, like the 20 little fish that she plans to prepare fried and that she will save in part for the days that follow. The women's chain Before the coronavirus reached Peru, Fabiola Oviedo, the president of the Association of Women Entrepreneurs of the Port of Quilca, worked for a fish buyer who in turn sold the resource in different markets and fishing terminals in the country. An intermediary, according to the jargon of the business. Fabiola's job consists of making sure that the boats that are going to fish the merchandise for their skipper have everything they need on board to last up to 12 days at sea. For this, the ship's captain receives money in advance to buy, in addition to fuel, food to feed the crew and enough ice to keep the fish on board. Otilia Chacón, another woman from the Association, is in charge of the latter. She sews the 40 or 50 bags of ice that, on average, each boat carries per fishing trip. Then, a man is in charge of loading the bags of 70 kilos each and taking them to the hold of the boat. Days later, when the ship returns, Otilia unloads the fish in boxes. "A person who does not know, goes and says what strength the ladies will have! How do they do it! But it is a matter of habit", says Otilia, although she assures that "not everyone does it either", because each box weighs between 30 kg and 35 kg. Once the job is finished, Otilia receives payment for both the ice and the discharge. About 100 soles per ton divided between two. The profit thus varies depending on how much fish reaches the port and "if they don't bring anything, then neither do we win," says Otilia. Karina also does the same job in the summer, when it is the parakeet (Coryphaena hippurus) season. In winter, on the other hand, she dedicates herself to "harnessing" the nets, that is, putting lead and cork on them. The 33 women that make up the Association thus work in different occupations in the fishing chain. They are daughters, wives, nieces and granddaughters of fishermen. But at the beginning, when they formed the association, Fabiola says that they were criticized "and not only by the fishermen, but also by our own husbands," she says. Furthermore, there were already groups of male workers on the dock and "we are never going to be able to compete with their strength," she acknowledges. However, Fabiola believes that commitment and responsibility are insurmountable and that, for this reason, many fishermen prefer to work with them. Otilia is known in the port of Quilca as La Muñeca "even though I don't have a doll at all," she says. That is the nickname they have given her and by which she is known throughout the southern coast of Peru, because when there is no work in Quilca, Otilia travels all the coves in the area landing fish. With her work she managed to get her four daughters to go to a national university in Arequipa. The oldest, 26, is a social worker and now, in times of a pandemic, she is the only one who is working and contributing to the household economy. The other three have not yet completed their studies in materials engineering, biology and management. Joining together allowed the women to apply for two projects to the National Program for Innovation in Fisheries and Aquaculture (PNIPA) to obtain funds that would help them start a collective business to give added value to Quilca's fish products and thus increase their income. One of them consists of having a freezing tunnel, that is, “like a large frigider”, explains Fabiola, where up to two tons of parakeet can be stored, which is, together with the squid (Dosidiscus gigas), the main resource that fishermen extract from this cove. "There are seasons when the parakeet gets quite cheap so we can freeze it and remove it when the price improves", says the president of the Association. The idea also includes offering the fish, packed and vacuum sealed, to supermarkets during the months when there is no tourism. The second project consists of a small steam drying and smoking plant. "It's like an oven where the fish is dried and smoked," says Fabiola. The project includes counters, refrigerators and a sealing machine to be able to sell the product to tourists under vacuum and with its own brand. The women were excited. The good idea they were up to was an example of a good organization to achieve sustainable fishing. Coastal communities, "in many cases end up living day by day and in order to support their families, they extract more resources, build more boats, which in the long term becomes unsustainable," explains Nicolás Rovegno, specialist in the WWF marine program. The objective of the Quilca Association of Entrepreneurs Women was aimed precisely at obtaining higher profits without increasing the extraction of marine resources. The pandemic, however, truncated the plans. The pandemic stopped everything The parakeet and the squid are the two main species that are fished in Quilca. The first is caught in summer, between December and February, and the second in winter, from June. Men and women eagerly await these two seasons which are the ones that allow them to save for the rest of the year. When it's time for the parakeet, women can make between 70 and 80 soles a day by making ice and unloading the boats, Fabiola says. But the most anticipated season is that of the squid "because it is the one that moves the most people and we exceed 100 a day," she says. However, the Consortium for Economic and Social Research of Peru warns that dependence on a single resource or two makes Quilca a vulnerable district since if these resources are scarce, fishermen have no alternatives. In addition, the Consortium warns that this vulnerability is exacerbated if it is considered that fishermen depend on an intermediary to sell their products. If these actors were absent, the impact on the fishermen would be inevitable. The problem is that in Quilca both circumstances arrived almost simultaneously and "the municipality is falling apart," says the Mayor. "Before the quarantine came, the parakeet season was bad," says Karina. The last time her husband went fishing he came back with 600 kilos of parakeet, but usually he comes with a ton and a half or two. In addition, Karina adds that even though the parakeet can cost 14 soles per kilo, last summer it did not cost more than 7 soles. In short, "there was little fish and it was also very cheap," she says. As they did not have higher income, they could not save or buy food for the rest of the year as they usually do. "You couldn't buy or save bread for May," says Karina. But they still had the squid season left and maybe they would be lucky there. However, the pandemic came a month later. On March 15, the Peruvian government declared a state of emergency, closed its borders and imposed a mandatory quarantine to contain the pandemic. Only essential sectors were allowed to continue operating, including artisanal fishing for human consumption. However, many fishermen decided not to leave their homes for fear of contagion. According to the mayor of Quilca, there are currently between 24 to 30 people infected by COVID-19 in the district and not a single person has died, but Quilca only has a small health post. “If something happens to us or our children, there is nothing at the post,” says Fabiola. The closest hospital is an hour away but it is small and cannot cope, so in the event of any emergency, the inhabitants of Quilca would have to go to Arequipa. This city, however, is four hours away and “we live from day to day. We are not going to have the money needed to travel there ”, he explains. In June the squid season began and the fishermen organized to get some boats out, but just as happened with the parakeet, they returned from the sea with almost nothing. “We hoped with the squid to be able to recover but that resource did not come out either. There is nothing. There is no squid on the entire coast. Everything has come together, "says Otilia, although Fabiola adds that anyway" if there were, there would be no one to buy it because there is no export because of the pandemic, "he says. Four are the intermediaries who buy the resource obtained by the Quilca fishermen, among them Fabiola's boss, so she too has lost her job. Without money, the women of the Quilca Women's Association were also unable to continue advancing in their projects, although these had been well rated by the PNIPA. "The only thing missing was to sign the contract to negotiate which companies were going to sell us the implements that we needed," says Fabiola. They also had to contribute about 5,000 soles per project to be awarded PNIPA funds. But the bad parrot season made it impossible for women to raise the money in time and the pandemic ended up driving away these possibilities. "Everything has come to nothing," says Fabiola. For now, the inhabitants of the Quilca cove support each other so that there is no shortage of food. “As the place where we live is not that big, it is like a single family because we all know each other. We shake hands, ”says Karina. The women go to the dock to prepare the ice for the few boats that go out to sea and in return the fishermen pay them with some fish to take home and cook. Mayor Hugo Alarcón acknowledges that the municipality has exhausted the resources it had and that, according to what he says, "they are extremely low" so it will not be possible to financially support the fishermen of the cove. In fact, he points out that in Quilca “we don't have water and sewage. Imagine a town that has neither water nor sewage. It is a backward town, ”he says. The municipality received 200 tests from the Ministry of Health to rule out Covid-19 infections, however, these were not enough. According to Alarcón, the municipality is managing at least 200 more tests so that fishermen can go fishing and thus be able to reactivate the district's ailing economy.

NVIDIA has just announced the GeForce MX 450 discrete graphics chip for mobile platforms which include notebooks and laptops. The GeForce MX 450 is aimed at entry-level notebooks with a focus on performance faster than integrated graphics solutions while delivering increased efficiency in a range of workloads. NVIDIA GeForce MX 450 Dedicated Discrete GPU Brings Turing To Entry-Tier Notebooks - GDDR6 & PCIe 4.0 Support While the official product page for the GeForce MX450 at NVIDIA's official webpage doesn't say a lot regarding the specifications, there are some details such as the features supported by the GeForce MX class GPUs. The NVIDIA GeForce MX450 is going to be based on the Turing GPU architecture. This is at least what the leaks have indicated. There are a list of technologies that the GeForce MX450 GPU will support such as (via Computerbase): NVIDIA Optimus technology NVIDIA GPU Boost NVIDIA Game Ready driver NVIDIA CUDA technology PCI Express 4.0 Microsoft DirectX 12 Supports Vulkan 1.2 OpenGL 4.6 support OpenCL 1.2 support In terms of technical specifications, the NVIDIA GeForce MX450 is listed to feature both GDDR5 and GDDR6 memory. Previously leaked information from NotebookCheck suggests that the MX450 will utilize the Turing TU117 GPU core which is based on the 12nm FinFET process node. The MX450 is said to feature up to 896 CUDA cores and a base clock of 540 MHz. The memory is supposed to be running at 10 Gbps across a 64-bit bus which should deliver 80 GB/s bandwidth to the GPU. The G5 memory runs at a slower clock rate of 7 Gbps and should deliver 56 GB/s bandwidth to the GPU. As for the TDP, the NVIDIA GeForce MX450 will feature a 25W configuration but we cannot confirm if that's the base variant with GDDR5 memory or the faster GDDR6 variant. The NVIDIA GeForce MX 430 is also expected to launch soon and could feature 768-896 CUDA cores. The addition of PCIe 4 isn't a big deal as it doesn't contribute to extra performance. The standard GeForce RTX & GeForce GTX Turing offers still utilize the PCIe 3.0 protocol on mobile platforms. Based on the numbers, we can expect anywhere between 80-90% performance of the GeForce GTX 1650 which would be amazing for an entry-level 25W laptop chip. A leaked Tiger Lake laptop with a GeForce MX450 graphics option leaked out a while ago from Lenovo. It looks like the MX450 will be primarily featured on Intel Tiger Lake-based laptops since the 11th Gen Intel lineup is the only note book family that is compliant with the PCIe Gen 4.0 protocol. It's also noteworthy that Intel's Tiger Lake Xe GPUs featured on the same laptops are also NVIDIA's main competitor in this segment. It will definitely be an interesting comparison between the new GeForce MX Turing based GPUs and the integrated parts from AMD and Intel in the second half of 2020 as all three vendors try to offer extra graphics performance in entry-level notebook designs.

BMW Motorrad and renowned coach Bernhard Naumann have presented the new creation from the manufacturer, the BMW Blenchmann R 18. It was in full confinement, at the beginning of April of this year, when the Munich firm announced the arrival of its first cruiser. A model that, based on unforgettable motorcycles like the BMW R 5, represented BMW's heritage and tradition like no other. Using the R 18 as a base, Naumann made the smallest possible changes to both the chassis and the technology of the model, and only used the original anchor points to create the imposing creature that you see here. This is how the BMW Blenchmann R 18 was born Bernhard Naumann, nicknamed Blenchmann ("The shaker"), explains that he prefers to work directly on the bike and not with previous sketches and thus ensure that the proportions are correct: "My work begins by removing parts of the original version until there is a blank canvas. As construction progresses, the design develops. I call it ‘Blechmann-style rapid prototype’ ”, explains the artist. Its version is based on the original support structure of the rear fender, saddle and passenger. But the fuel tank has undergone major changes. A narrower design and cuts in the knee area highlight its sporty character and give more prominence to the engine. The original head tube was used as the base for the handlebar. Blenchmann was also in charge of customizing the kidney-shaped headlights. The steering angle, the forward-sloping headlight and the central filament lamp are also details that highlight the custom character. Unobtrusive black paintwork and classic white BMW Motorrad stripes were the finishing touch to Naumann and his team's 450 hours of work to create the BMW Blenchmann R 18.

Earlier, the Argentine forward sent a fax to the entity advising them of his desire to leave the institution. Barcelona has responded to Lionel Messi's burofax, in which he requested the Barça entity for the freedom letter, with another burofax in which he asked him to retire from the club. Catalan club sources explained to EFE that in response, Barcelona proposes the Argentine star to lead, "with renewed strength and illusions", the new sports project "as he has always done" and to end his career at the Camp Nou. On the other hand, he reminds the captain of the Barça team that the clause that allowed him to request the release letter had to be executed before June 10 and that, therefore, having one more year of the contract in force, his termination clause is 700 million euros. "I'm more outside than inside," the player would have anticipated Koeman in their private conversation. Messi is a six-time Ballon d'Or winner and multi-champion with Barcelona where he forged himself from the age of 13 as one of the greatest footballers in history.

Dr. Germán Málaga, professor of medicine at the Cayetano Heredia University, shared the list of requirements for those who want to participate as volunteers in phase 3 clinical trials of the Sinopharm company vaccine in Peru. President Martín Vizcarra announced that six thousand Peruvians will participate in phase 3 clinical trials of the vaccine made in China by the Sinopharm company. In conversation with Dr. Elmer Huerta, the main professor of Medicine at the Universidad Peruana Cayetano Heredia (UPCH), German Málaga, provided more information on what the requirements will be to be part of this study. As recalled, a first group of 3,000 people will participate in trials with the UPCH and another group of 3,000 will do so with the Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos (UNMSM). Malaga specified that a group of 2,000 people will receive the Wuhan virus strain vaccine, another group of 2,000 other members will be injected with the Beijing virus strain and another 2,000 will undergo the placebo effect. What requirements must I meet? Dr. Málaga reported that the minimum age to participate will be 18 years and the maximum 75. He also indicated that those patients who are currently undergoing some medicated treatment or with uncontrolled diseases such as tuberculosis will be discarded. "If you have hypertension, but it is controlled, there is no problem for you to participate," said Malaga. Likewise, he pointed out that all those selected will undergo COVID-19 discard swab tests and blood tests to rule out any other disease. If the volunteer develops any symptoms after being injected with the vaccine, he or she will have health insurance with coverage of up to $ 500,000. To register as a volunteer, Dr. Málaga indicated that it can be done through vaccinecovid.pe which will be activated this Wednesday, August 26. "We intend that we can recruit volunteers before September 8," he said. Newsletter All about the coronavirus COVID-19 has put everyone on alert.

Some footballers from the Bavarian team sang the Maluma song in the dressing rooms of the Da Luz stadium. 'Hawaii', the song that Maluma supposedly created for his ex-partner Natalia Barulich, now linked to Neymar, sounded in the background amid the Bayern Munich celebrations for their sixth Champions League coronation, after the Bavarian team's 1-0 victory over PSG in Lisbon. In social networks, a video in which players of the German team chanted the theme of the Colombian artist went viral in the dressing rooms of the Da Luz stadium, something that for many is not a coincidence and would be a mockery for the Brazilian star. Days before, after PSG's victory over Leipzig in the semifinals of the Champions League, Neymar and other elements of the Parisian team made the single more po[CENSORED]r by singing it out loud. Immediately, it slipped out that the "Canarinha" reference wanted to show Maluma the love of Barulich. The author of ‘Hawaii’ was in charge of clarifying that he did not dedicate the song especially, however, more than one Bayern Munich footballer seems to have come to his defense. "We wrote this song as a combo and when I recorded the choir's intro I immediately knew it was going to be a strong song, but beyond that I was never inspired by any relationship," said the 'cafetero', who had a good relationship with Neymar before of having to talk about this topic. "I am a sick football fan and I wished Neymar all the success in the world and I do not wish harm on anyone, I do not wear myself out with those things," Maluma said in conversation with her followers.

The examinations of the corpses of the twelve women and one man were in charge of the Institute of Legal Medicine. President Martín Vizcarra expressed his "anger at the irresponsibility" of the party's organizers. The Public Ministry reported this Sunday that eleven of the thirteen deceased at the 'Thomas Restobar' nightclub in Los Olivos, on Saturday night, were infected with COVID-19. The expertise was in charge of the Institute of Legal Medicine. "The autopsies will be carried out tomorrow, Monday, August 24, in compliance with the biosafety procedures required in these circumstances, especially since 11 corpses infected with the virus have been identified," they explain in the statement. The provincial prosecutor Carlos Díaz Casimiro, head of the Fourth Office of the Second Provincial Criminal Corporate Prosecutor's Office of Los Olivos, is in charge of the case and directs the proceedings to find those responsible for the tragedy. The police raided the nightclub where 120 people participated in a party called through social networks, violating the rule that prohibits group meetings in Peru due to the state of health emergency due to COVID-19. "Faced with the police intervention, which did not use any type of weapon or tear gas, those attending the party tried to escape through the only entrance door, running over themselves and being trapped between the door and a staircase in the premises," said the Ministry of the Interior in a statement. Twelve women and one man died of suffocation after the stampede unleashed at the 'Thomas Restobar' nightclub. President Martín Vizcarra lamented the tragedy and expressed his "anger at the irresponsibility" of the party's organizers.

AMD is preparing a brand new line of Van Gogh low power Ryzen mobile APUs that will be targeted at the notebook segment soon. We have heard a few details of these APUs which will incorporate a very different architecture compared to the Cezanne APUs that are launching under the standard U and H series segments. AMD Van Gogh Ultra-Low Power Ryzen APUs To Feature Zen 2 CPU & RDNA 2 GPU Architecture In 7.5W-18W TDP Configurations We got to hear some interesting new details regarding the Zen 3 based Cezanne APUs from Twitter user Patrick Schur yesterday and today, he has leaked information regarding the Van Gogh APUs in his latest tweet. The AMD Van Gogh APUs will be part of the Ryzen family and are presumed to be a part of the Ryzen 5000 family. The tweet mentions that AMD's Ryzen APUs that are part of the Van Gogh family will feature two key technologies. These include the Zen 2 CPU and RDNA 2 GPU architectures. The design will be unlike anything that AMD has done on the PC platform but the same two architectures have been incorporated for the next-generation consoles from Microsoft and Sony. The existing Ryzen 4000 Renoir APUs feature the Zen 2 CPU and Vega GPU architecture while the upcoming Cezanne APU family is going to feature the Zen 3 CPU and Vega Enhanced GPU architecture. While we already know the full potential of the Zen 2 CPU architecture, it is likely that the ones Van Gogh APUs utilize will be based on an enhanced 7nm process node. You might even call it Zen 2+ which will deliver improved efficiency and much better clock sustainability. The GPU side on the other hand will receive a big upgrade in the form of RDNA 2. AMD's RDNA 2 GPUs will deliver an improved performance per watt design over RDNA 1. Internal AMD estimates have shown a 50% increase in performance per watt. We haven't seen any RDNA GPU in action in an integrated chip design yet and Van Gogh might as well be the first one to show how the next-gen Navi 2X GPUs perform in a monolithic APU design. We can expect a big jump in overall performance over 7nm Vega GPUs but the main bottleneck will come from the memory & cache design of Van Gogh APUs. To mitigate the bandwidth issues, AMD's Van Gogh Ryzen APUs are expected to feature LPDDR5 memory. The evolution of LPDDR4x memory provides up to 50% faster data transfer rates & also higher bandwidth which would help deliver improved graphics performance. As for the TDPs, the Van Gogh based Ryzen APUs will feature configurations starting at 7.5W and can be configured up to 18W. Van Gogh could be positioned to tackle both Tiger Lake-Y 9W and Tiger Lake-U 15W chips which will be an interesting competition in the notebook segment for sure. AMD Ryzen 5000 'Van Gogh' - Low-Power Mobile APUs With Zen 2 CPU & Navi 21 GPU There's no mention on when these chips will launch but earlier reports have hinted at late 2020 as a possible release date but I expect the announcement to take place alongside AMD's Ryzen 5000 'Cezanne' family unveil at CES 2021. The Van Gogh CPUs are also reportedly in A0 revision. Earlier leaks have indicated that Van Gogh is likely to feature Zen 2 CPU cores and Navi GPU cores. While Zen 2 has proved to be a very efficient chip for the low-power segment, the most interesting part of the Van Gogh APUs will be its graphics chip which will not only be based on a better graphics architecture than Vega but AMD's RDNA 2 IP. The specific GPU for the Van Gogh APUs is said to be Navi 21. Again, the use of the Navi 21 codename here might confuse a lot of people but just like Vega 20 which is the codename for the 2nd Gen Vega (7nm) graphics IP, the Navi 21 codename could be there to indicate the 2nd Gen Navi (7nm) graphics IP. We are aware that Navi 21 is also the code name used for the Big Navi GPU but this is the very reason I hate stated earlier that details for just Ryzen 5000 'Cezanne' APUs are concrete at the moment while the rest of the lineups are mostly based on speculated evidence from various sources.
