The loans granted by Fondepes are aimed at workers in this sector who do not have financing opportunities, to refloat, equip and modernize their productive activities. With the aim of continuing to provide financial support to the artisanal fishing sector and mitigate the negative effects generated by COVID-19, the Executive Branch published this Saturday the Urgency Decree No. 097-2021 in the Official El Peruano in which it approves a series of transfers of resources for more than S / 5 million. According to the regulations, it establishes that budgetary modifications be made within the Fondepes for S / 2′223,469. Parallel to this, the Ministry of Production is authorized to transfer S / 3 million to said institution. The total amount will be channeled by the National Fisheries Development Fund (Fondepes) to finance the granting of loans and S / 223,469 for the operating expenses generated by them. These credits granted by Fondepes are aimed at artisanal fishing workers who do not have financing opportunities, through the provision of goods and services that allow them to refloat, equip and modernize their productive activities. With this, the country's fishermen can increase their income and improve the living conditions of both themselves and their families. It should be noted that the assets financed in credit by Fondepes have been affected by the increase in the dollar, since the inputs required by said sector such as: marine engines, fishing gear, communication equipment, navigation equipment, among others, They are imported and this impacts the amount of each loan requested.

Preventing domestic cats from roaming free is key to preventing disease outbreaks in wild animals. In most of the world, domestic cats are treated as a danger to wildlife. The most iconic case is that of Australia: after arriving on the continent in 1788 aboard English ships, feral cats have multiplied and today they are one of the main threats to native species. It is estimated that more than a million reptiles per day are killed by cats in Australia, while a study ensures that feral cats are linked to the extinction of 25 species of mammals and the risk of disappearance of at least 124 other Australian species. However, the danger that cats pose to native species is not limited to hunting small mammals, birds and reptiles: new research published in the Proceedings of the Royal Society B analyzed a group of 45,000 cases of toxoplasmosis among wild mammals. of 238 different species, with the aim of finding the key factors that influence the prevalence of the parasite. According to New Scientist, the team found a high prevalence of toxoplasmosis associated with an increase in temperature, increased rainfall, and especially an unsuspected factor: living near urban areas. Although more studies are needed to fully understand the problem, scientists directly linked urban areas with the presence of the main host of toxoplasmosis: domestic cats. What is toxoplasmosis and how is it transmitted? Toxoplasmosis is caused by a common parasite that can be found in contaminated food and water; however, domestic and wild cats are its main reservoir. Toxoplasma gondii is present in the feces of an infected cat and can be spread by coming into contact with their feces. In humans, it is a benign disease and it is estimated that between 30 and 50% of the po[CENSORED]tion have this parasite; However, it is a disease that rarely requires treatment and in most cases goes unnoticed, as the immune system fights it efficiently. However, in pregnant women or people with a weakened immune system, toxoplasmosis can cause symptoms similar to the complaint and in rare cases, serious, life-threatening complications. The study adds to other research looking at the harmful effects on wildlife of domestic cats roaming free in cities and rural areas. In the case of toxoplasmosis, the team considers responsible management of cats essential to avoid the spread of the parasite and, above all, to minimize the risk of an outbreak of this and other diseases in wild animals.

The Hyundai Ioniq 5 is the new mid-size CUV from the Korean firm. Cousin brother of the KIA EV6, it stands out for its autonomy of up to 686 kilometers in the city and unique details, such as its roof with photovoltaic solar panels. Specifically, today we get behind the wheel during the national presentation of the Hyundai Ioniq 5 73 kWh 218 hp 2WD. The new Ioniq 5 has been developed on the new brand-specific architecture for battery electric vehicles. Christened the Electric Global Modular Platform (E-GMP), it allows the compact to show off unique proportions, with a long wheelbase, an innovative interior design, high performance and the Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) function. Probably what catches your attention the most is its futuristic design. It looks like a prototype both inside and out, which is sure to appeal to a lot of buyers. Its rivals include the aforementioned KIA EV6, with which it shares many components; as well as the Škoda Enyaq iV, Volkswagen ID.4, Ford Mustang Mach-E and Tesla Model Y. Hyundai's goal is that all cars sold by 2035 in Europe are zero emissions. They want to achieve carbon neutrality in their production in 2045. It does not seem difficult that they will achieve it, because currently, in addition to traditional diesel and gasoline, they already have PHEV, MHEV, FCEV, HEV and EV in their product portfolio . Exterior design The design of the Hyundai Ioniq 5 evokes the daring attitude of the Hyundai Pony, the company's first production model. It is also inspired by the boldness of the 45 EV Concept and redefines the timeless design concept. This theme will be expanded as the Ioniq range grows. It is characterized by clean and sharp lines, with a minimalist design language. It is undeniable that it is loaded with personality. The front is fitted with Hyundai's first clamshell hood and V-shaped headlamp placement. The 256-pixel Full LED headlights feature distinctive daytime running lights (DRL). These small pixel-shaped clusters are also present at the rear of the vehicle. The front and rear shapes of the vehicle merge at the doors, offering a new example of the "Parametric Dynamics" design. Flush retractable handles offer a clean surface and improved aerodynamic efficiency. The C-pillar has a robust shape, inclined at 45º. The windows are tinted and the glass area is wide. In dimensions, it reaches 4.63 meters long, 1.89 meters wide and 1.60 meters high. The wheelbase is 3,000 mm, making it the widest in the segment. The front and rear tracks measure 1,628 and 1,637 mm, respectively. For the body we can choose from nine colors, including five shades inspired by nature. The finishes are multiple, being able to choose between solid, metallic, pearl and matte. In this case we see the pearly Phantom Black. At the rear, horizontality is very present. While the KIA EV6 has opted for sportiness, elegance is reflected in the Ioniq 5, although the marked bumpers and roof spoiler with black fins add a distinctive touch.

The Brazilian midfielder of Real Madrid, Casemiro, praised the figure of Leo Messi and affirmed that it is "a great loss" for Sunday's classic at the Camp Nou after his departure from FC Barcelona, although he warned that he does not reduce the potential of the azulgrana team. “Messi is a great loss for FC Barcelona, but also for us, for the classic. It is a very significant loss because he is one of the best players of all time, but we know that FC Barcelona is always strong, even more so at home ”, he valued in a statement published by ESPN. “If we talk about Messi, of course it is a very important loss for FC Barcelona because he is a great player and we cannot deny it, but it is also going to be a very difficult game. FC Barcelona always makes it difficult for us ”, he added. For Casemiro, the significance of the classic is not less due to the change in the players who star in it and he expects an even duel at the Camp Nou on Sunday. “All the classics are special, mainly if they face Real Madrid and FC Barcelona, because it is one of the most watched in the world, if not the most watched. It is certainly a game that is defined by small details. Whoever makes fewer mistakes will win ”, he declared.

Napoleón Cabrera, union representative, said that they have asked the Government to pronounce itself in writing until October 26 or the dialogues could be broken. The next few hours are key to know if there will be an agreement between carriers and the Government on fuel prices or if the dialogues break down. This morning, Napoleón Cabrera, president of the National Federation of Mixed and Medium Light Transport of Ecuador and who is part of the transport commission that maintains the dialogues, that on Wednesday night they did not reach any agreement and that they have decided to ask the Government a written communication, until October 26, on the subject of targeting. Otherwise, the dialogue would be broken and the transport federations would be communicated so that each one can make the decisions that are considered necessary. The statements were made by Cabrera in the newscast La hora key del Austro. He explained that the approach of the carriers has been that the price is focused, and not that compensation be delivered. They propose a price of $ 2.39 for extra gasoline and $ 1.70 for diesel. But, according to him, the government plan is practically at international prices, at $ 2.70 for gasoline and diesel at $ 2.10, prices that have been rejected by the Commission. In such a way that this afternoon, the carriers await a new proposal from the Government, as Cabrera said that the intention of the carriers is to exhaust all dialogue options. Additionally, that in the dialogue tables, the carriers have shown the Government that the carrier's operation cannot continue to be maintained with the current price and even worse with the future price that is being raised. They have also indicated that gasoline, at the moment, is more expensive than Colombian. That is why they have asked to be shown with what parameters they are measuring international prices. He also explained that the Ecuadorian gasoline is euro 2, the Colombian euro 4, so it does not make sense that ours is more expensive. He also indicated that the transport sector seeks targeting for all modalities, that is, for the public and commercial. In any case, he said that the Government has already accepted that targeting is for everyone and that it has lowered its aspiration with respect to diesel somewhat.

The study analyzed 575 scientific articles to determine the benefits and harms of these animals, including damage to agriculture and forestry or traffic collisions. An international study in which the Spanish University of Granada (UGR) participates concludes that hoofed animals, such as deer or wild boars, provide increasingly valued benefits compared to the possible damages they generate in their recolonization. Scientists from the UGR (southern Spain) participate in this research focused on analyzing the benefits and conflicts associated with wild ungulates on a global scale, a review to understand the increase in this type of animal in Europe and North America. Ungulates are recolonizing many areas, which according to this study responds to the increasing interaction between these animals and people. The study, led by the Ecology area of the Miguel Hernández University (UMH) of Elche (eastern Spain), analyzed 575 scientific articles to determine the benefits and harms of these animals, among which damage to agriculture and forestry or traffic collisions. According to the researchers, since the beginning of the 21st century, publications on wild ungulates and their interaction with people have increased, but also the benefits reported. Study conclusions In their conclusions, the researchers point out that, despite the negative aspects associated with wild ungulates, in recent years the benefits they bring to socio-ecological systems, such as tourism or habitat maintenance, have become evident. The multidisciplinary team that carried out this study adds that animals also provide benefits in hunting, for their use as food, or in environmental conservation. Scientists from several Spanish universities and from other countries such as the Institute of Nature Conservation Polish Academy of Sciences (Poland), WWF-US (United States), University of British Columbia (Canada) and Leuphana University of Lüneburg (Germany) participated in the research.

Agreement between Ducati and Dorna for the editions of the MotoE World Cup from 2023 Ducati is pleased to announce the beginning of its electric era: from the 2023 season it will be the sole official supplier of motorcycles for the FIM Enel MotoE ™ World Cup, the electric category of the MotoGP ™ World Championship. The agreement signed with Dorna Sports, organizer and promoter of the most important international two-wheel championships, lasts until 2026 and, therefore, will cover four editions of the MotoE World Cup. This is a historic step for the Borgo Panigale motorcycle manufacturer that, following its habit of using competition as a laboratory for technologies and solutions that later become a reality for all motorcyclists, enters the world of electric motorcycles from the sector sportier: the one in the electric category of the MotoGP World Championship. The objective is to develop knowledge and technologies in a world in constant evolution such as electricity, through a familiar experience for the company such as competition. This has been an established tradition for the Borgo Panigale company since the Ducati 851, which inaugurated the trend for Ducati racing sports bikes by revolutionizing the concept with its innovative new water-cooled two-cylinder engine, electronic fuel injection. Double overhead camshaft, four-valve cylinder heads, derived from the Ducati 748 IE, which made its drag racing debut at Le Castellet in 1986. Since then, this endless transfer of experience has always occurred since the World Superbike Championships, in which Ducati has participated since the first edition of 1988, and since MotoGP, in which Ducati is the only non-Japanese motorcycle manufacturer to has won a World Championship. That transfer is also evident in the Borgo Panigale manufacturer's most recent and prestigious products: in fact, the Panigale's V4 engine is strictly derived in its entire construction philosophy (from bore and stroke measurements to counter-rotating crankshaft) from the engine that debuted at the Desmosedici GP in 2015. The Granturismo V4 that equips the new Multistrada V4 evolved after the Panigale engine. All vehicle control software is also derived directly from those developed in the racing world. Not to mention the field of aerodynamics. The technological solutions developed in the world of competition, transferred to the products that make up the range, allow Ducati to offer its enthusiasts very high-performance and fun-to-ride motorcycles. The FIM Enel MotoE Championship will not be an exception in this regard either and will allow the company to develop the best technologies and testing methodologies applied to light and powerful sports electric motorcycles. At the same time, the fact that Ducati is part of the Volkswagen Group, which has made electric mobility an essential element of its 2030 "New Auto" strategy, represents the best prerequisite for an extraordinary exchange of knowledge in the field of automotive. electric propulsion systems. The announcement of the agreement was made during a joint press conference in the press room of the Misano World Circuit 'Marco Simoncelli' on the eve of the Grand Prix of Made in Italy and Emilia-Romagna, the third to the last round of the World Championship of MotoGP 2021. Present were Carmelo Ezpeleta, CEO of Dorna Sports, and Claudio Domenicali, CEO of Ducati Motor Holding. Claudio Domenicali, CEO of Ducati Motor Holding: "We are proud of this agreement because, like all the first times, it represents a historic moment for our company. Ducati always projects towards the future and every time it enters a new world, it does so. for the product with the best possible performance. To make available to all participants of the FIM Enel MotoE World Cup high-performance electric motorcycles characterized by lightness. It is precisely weight, a fundamental element of sports motorcycles, where the biggest challenge will be played. Lightness has always been in Ducati's DNA and thanks to rapidly evolving battery chemistry and technology we are convinced that we can deliver an excellent result. We test our innovations and our futuristic technology on circuits from all over the world and then we will make interesting and desirable products available to the Ducatists. I am convinced that once "More we will take advantage of the experiences we have had in the world of competition to transfer them and also apply them in series motorcycles". Carmelo Ezpeleta, CEO of Dorna Sports: “We are very proud to announce Ducati as the new and only manufacturer of the FIM Enel MotoE World Cup. With their incredible racing history, it is an honor to welcome this commitment from one of the best-known manufacturers in the paddock and take on this new challenge together. We can't wait to see what the future holds and we continue to see this technology develop and grow, with the MotoGP and MotoE paddock continuing to drive innovation and evolution in the motorcycle industry, while creating an incredible spectacle. on the track ". Claudio Domenicali, Ducati CEO and Carmelo Ezpeleta, Dorna Sports CEO This first step for Ducati in the world of electric motorcycles will also influence the evolution of the product range. Now, the most important challenges in this field continue to be those of size, weight, autonomy of the batteries and availability of charging networks. Ducati's experience at the FIM Enel MotoE World Cup will be a fundamental support for product R&D, along with the physiological evolution of technology and chemistry. The goal is to study how to produce, as soon as technology allows, a Ducati electric vehicle that is sporty, light, exciting and capable of satisfying all enthusiasts.

The members of the first promotion of the Hall of Fame receive their recognition in an event organized by the Spanish Federation and the Diario As They are not all who are, but in the ceremony of the first promotion of the Hall of Fame of Spanish basketball that has been held this afternoon in Seville, they were all who were. Pioneers, benchmarks, examples of talent and individual and collective effort that for generations have contributed to making the sport of the basket great. Living figures, such as Juan Antonio Corbalán, Juan Antonio San Epifanio, Epi, Juan Carlos Navarro, Amaya Valdemoro, Arvidas Sabonis or the members of the 1993 senior team, the former obtaining a gold medal; and others who remain in the memory turned into legends, such as Fernando Martín, coach Antonio Díaz-Miguel or commentator Andrés Montes, have been recognized in an initiative promoted by the Spanish Basketball Federation (FEB) and Diario As. The Cartuja Stadium, the recent venue for the European Football Championship, has welcomed - with a delay of a year, like everything that has been conditioned by the pandemic - to the members of the 2019 class. It has done so the Minister of Education and Sports of the Junta de Andalucía and former national basketball coach and coach, Javier Imbroda. “I was born with a poster of the Spain of the generation of 73 directed by Díaz-Miguel. You have always been a benchmark ”, he said excitedly. This recognition of teachers has been a constant in all the winners, in one example the importance of the communicating vessels between past and future necessary for the evolution of any sport. Jorge Garbajosa, president of the FEB, has highlighted the importance of an event that represents the first stone of the birth of the Hall of Fame with the presence of the protagonists who have cemented Spanish basketball with their feats. An idea in which Vicente Jiménez, director of Diario AS, has abounded, who has stressed that this hall of fame does not reward "a season, but the construction" of this sport in Spain. Antonio Díaz-Miguel has been recognized in memoriam as a coach. Absolute national coach for almost 27 years, he infected the style of American basketball - especially university basketball - in a handful of generations to which he inoculated basketball maturity and made them believe that they could dispute the world basketball scepter dominated by Americans, Russians and Yugoslavs. The historic silver of Los Angeles 84 confirmed his convictions and finished consecrating two of his pupils who have also entered the Hall of Fame like him: Epi and Corbalán. "To speak of this recognition is to speak of a legacy," said the ex-base of Real Madrid and the Spanish team, to whom the president of the Higher Sports Council, José Manuel Franco, presented the award. "Getting the silver medal in Los Angeles changed the course of basketball in Spain," acknowledged Epi, who obtained his golden ball and the insignia from the Executive President of PRISA Media, Carlos Núñez. The forward was for more than 20 years the player with the most caps until he was surpassed by Navarro, the conductor of the Juniors of Gold led by Pau Gasol. “He received many awards, but this is definitely something special. Being with this group of legends who have done so much for basketball means a lot to me, ”Navarro said. Navarro is a benchmark for new generations of footballers, like Amaya Valdemoro, the second player with the most appearances for the senior team, after Laia Palau. She won gold at the 2013 European championship, just 20 years after the women's team led the way at the Eurobasket in Perugia. "He had no female references, only male, except for the generation of '93 which is the one that taught us what it was to win," said Valdemoro. All the members of that team, except Pilar Valero, who has not attended, have been present in Seville to commemorate a historical milestone, as recognized by its captain, Carolina Mujica: “We were not a legendary team, we were simply the first in the basketball team to win a gold medal in Spanish basketball ”. The first to lead the way Valdemoro and the 93 champions have been a stimulus at a time when successes go viral and become close and global. The 93 players led the way in every way. When Maribel Lorenzo, with her height of 1'85, began to play in her native Vigo in the 70s or when María Planas sat down to direct a bench in that same decade or to direct the women's team, the only woman to do so, between 1978 and 1985, there was hardly any media coverage. Both set their own path and therefore occupy a position in the first promotion of the Spanish Basketball Hall of Fame. The first in memorian: he passed away at the age of 34 while training with some friends. "If everything I have done has been a grain of sand for women's basketball, I am satisfied," said Planas, who received the biggest standing ovation of the night with the entire audience standing. Basketball, like all sports, thrives on epics and legends. The private Spanish basketball hall of fame has recognized the Lithuanian Arvidas Sabonis in his category of international player and the late Fernando Martín, the first to step on an NBA parquet. His award was presented by Vicente Jiménez, director of Diario As, to his brother and president of the ACB, Antonio Martín. Martín and Sabonis wore the Portland Trail Blazers jersey and in Spain we were able to enjoy Martín's American adventure in that team thanks to the comments of Ramón Trecet through his program Cerca de las Estrellas. Trecet is another of the first generation members of the FEB hall of fame who has been recognized as a contributor. If Trecet discovered the NBA to the Spanish, Andrés Montes narrated his games with a particular and inimitable style that has earned him recognition in memoriam as a journalist. Juan Cantón, PRISA Media General Director of Press, has presented the golden ball to his sons Nelson and Orson. Others who have entered the Olympus of Spanish basketball have been Anselmo López (in memoriam), promoter of the minibasket in Spain; Emiliano Rodríguez, the first modern national basketball player and member of the mythical generation of '73; the versatile referee Miguel Ángel Betancor; Pedro Ferrándiz, the most successful Spanish coach and founder of the International Center for Basketball Documentation and Research, current headquarters of the FEB Museum in Alcobendas, a city - where Amaya Valdemoro was born - that has also been recognized with an extraordinary award. None of this would have been possible if 100 years ago the Esportiu Laietà Club had not founded the first basketball team in Spain or played the first documented match between two clubs, in December 1922. A century later, its sporting activity has diversified although maintains 13 teams and three schools. That historic dedication has earned him recognition as a contribution.

The administration of President Joe Biden announced recommendations to change the use of economic sanctions to make them more effective for U.S. foreign policy, but warned that more needed to be done to protect itself from the threat of the cryptocurrency boom. Following a broad review that began shortly after Biden took office in January, the U.S. Treasury Department released a revised framework, seeking to take a more surgical approach to sanctions in place of favored brute force. by his predecessor, Donald Trump. The Treasury warned that countries that reduce the use of the US dollar and exposure to the US financial system could erode the effectiveness of sanctions, while digital currencies and other technological innovations also pose a risk. While seeking to turn the page on the Trump era, the new prescriptions offered few details about how the Biden administration could change its handling of sanctions against important targets such as Iran, Venezuela and China. Treasury Department officials promised that more rigor would be added to the sanctions process, while modernizing the tool through the new framework, which seeks to link it to clear political goals and emphasizes the importance of multilateral coordination and mitigation of humanitarian impacts. The new guidelines also advise that the Treasury invest in the development of its technological capabilities and its staff as part of the effort to counter the threat of digital currencies. “The key for us is to make sure we are in a place where sanctions can be as effective as possible, and that means addressing the fact that technology is making it easier for people to search outside of the traditional financial system in the United States. "Said a senior Treasury official. Treasury officials made clear Monday that sanctions will remain a crucial part of US foreign policy. The Biden administration has targeted a much more specific use of the tool, but has kept the pressure on Venezuela, Iran and other countries under sanctions. "Sanctions are a fundamentally important tool to advance our national security interests," said Under Secretary of the Treasury Wally Adeyemo in a statement.

Spanish pets will have an Animal DNI by 2022. This is one of the priorities of the Directorate General for Animal Rights with the aim of having a national database. Ione Belarra, Minister of Social Rights and the 2030 Agenda, wants to have all pets identified to "ensure that we are moving on the right path and in a model where no animal is left to its own devices in Spain". In this animal identity document, which will be compatible with the microchip, there will be basic information such as the name of the pet, the date of birth, the vaccines it has and all the owner's information. In this way, the owner of the animal can be easily located in case of abandonment. The DNI-Animal is one of the star measures of the draft bill for the Protection and Rights of animals that was presented on October 6. However, it also includes other measures in favor of animal rights. In this sense, people who want to have a dog as a companion animal must take a training course that enables them to have an animal in their care.

The surprise of the weekend on the World Superbike grid came from Kawasaki. The Japanese manufacturer has put on track two special liveries for the Kawasaki ZX-10RR of Jonathan Rea and Alex Lowes that commemorate the 125 years of the brand's history. A date that coincided this weekend with the Argentine Motul Round and the return of the MOTUL FIM Superbike World Championship to the San Juan Villicum Circuit. According to the Japanese manufacturer, both special fairings celebrate Kawasaki's past, present and future. Colors that used the Kawasaki GPZ 900R and the Kawasaki ZXR 750 H2 Kawasaki wanted to celebrate its 125 years of history by dressing its official World Superbike motorcycles in the colors of two classic models of the company. Some colors that we have to go back almost 30 years to remember in their original frames. The first, the one worn by Jonathan Rea, refers to a decoration inspired by the Kawasaki ZXR 750 H2 with the green, white and blue colors used by Scott Russell in the United States. The North American pilot was crowned WorldSBK Champion in 1993 to later reap the same successes in his native country, where he earned the nickname "Mr. Daytona" by winning the mythical Daytona 200 five times. Alex Lowes' fairing is inspired by his part from the iconic Top Gun movie. Starring Tom Cruise, the actor drove the first motorcycle of the Japanese brand that used the 'Ninja' logo on its side. For those who do not know, it was the Kawasaki GPZ 900R and it was decorated with two colored bands in red and black that crossed the entire bike. A symbol of sportsmanship that has crossed the barrier of time. This is not the first time that Kawasaki has used special liveries. The Japanese manufacturer has opted in the past to use slightly modified fairings after winning the WorldSBK Championship, adding gold piping to its fibers to celebrate successes. The anniversary has also symbolized a new era for the Japanese manufacturer with the launch of Kawasaki Motors, Ltd, the company recently created to focus on exclusive vehicle manufacturing. This change has brought about the use of a new logo of the brand known as River Mark inspired by the ideogram that symbolizes a river in Japanese. The new company will focus even more on motorcycles and the two special fairings have celebrated Kawasaki's past, present and future. In fact, the use of these colors and the latest publications of the brand referring to the past with the slogan "Let the good times roll" makes us wonder if it is not looking for the complicity of its customers to get a print run of its current models with this classic decoration as has happened with the Z900RS and Z650RS. In any case, to find out we will have to wait for the Motorcycle Show (EICMA) that is going to be held in Milan on the last weekend of November.

Simeone places Klopp's team at the European forefront together with Chelsea and City and the German coach ensures that the rojiblancos are "a machine for results" By antagonists, Diego Pablo Simeone and Jürgen Klopp have taken the duel of this marres in the Metropolitano (21.00, Movistar Champions League) as a great challenge that will test their ability to respond to counteract each other. The Atlético coach introduced Liverpool as one of the three European teams leading the vanguard of the new football. An offensive game and pressure machine that averages three goals per game. “I think Chelsea, Manchester City and Liverpool are going through a fantastic period of play. Watching all three play with different characteristics and rhythms gives pleasure. Liverpool is a short team from line to line, they have mobility, speed, are forceful in the area, face one-on-one duels, leave spaces without fear behind the defense and are dangerous on the counterattack ”, enthusiastically described Simeone the total football proposed by Klopp. The rojiblanco coach is facing one of those rivals who usually force us to think about several games in one, but if he has something clear it is "that you have to match the intensity of the game." The size of the rival has also led Simeone to make a new claim to the fans. “The expectation is a great game, full of our people and with red and white jerseys. That previous game [1-0 in the round of 16 in 2020] we started to win before the match, because the people were very important to transmit those energies and they will remember it because it was a great night ”, proclaims the Argentine coach. Giménez's doubt, which will be resolved this morning in a short training session, keeps many combinations open to make the eleven. Without the Uruguayan, the tests have placed Kondogbia as third center-back. And with Giménez among the starters, the team that makes up Simeone is even open to João Félix playing a false nine and forming a midfield with De Paul, Koke, Lemar and the aforementioned Kondogbia. The memory of the round of 16 clash two seasons ago is also very latent in Klopp. The German coach did not digest the elimination at Anfield (2-3) well and reproached Atlético for his style. “What I said after the second game I said it because I was pissed off and disappointed by many things. Things were so bad and they had to concentrate on football anyway, playing against a rival full of top players who defended themselves with everything they had, "Klopp apologized on Monday, referring to the game being played when it was the pandemic was brewing. It is already a reality. "That's why I said what I said," he continued; "Look, Simeone has done everything right. It has made Atlético champion of the League, it has been very successful. He has been able to integrate a group "of top-level players to fight as if his life depended on them, that says a lot about Diego's quality". Klopp focused part of his appearance on talking about his rojiblanco colleague. “I have a lot of respect for what he does. I like it? Little. The important thing is to be successful and have achieved a machine to get results. Now they have changed the system and brought in new players who have improved them, "he said before warning:" The games against them are real football fights. It is the great challenge of European football: to face Atlético in the Wanda. By the way, they love to project that image! And I like it ”, the German closed.

The excess of money in Israeli currency in Palestinian businesses may not be the most talked about aspect of the occupation, but experts warn that it is a growing concern for the Palestinian economy. Palestinians in the West Bank use the Israeli shekel, but even with that factor in common, the two financial systems are drastically different. In Israel, as in many advanced economies, digital payments are growing rapidly, replacing transactions with banknotes and coins. But in the West Bank, under Israeli military occupation since 1967, cash rules. Tasir Freij, owner of a hardware store in Ramallah, told AFP that he must pay a 2% commission to deposit cash because his bank is reluctant to accept it. "It is a crisis ... and we are feeling its effects," Freij said. Much of the paper money is brought in by tens of thousands of Palestinians who work in Israel or the Jewish settlements in the West Bank, and receive their wages in cash. Experts and traders fear that the accumulation of the paper currency threatens to suffocate the Palestinian financial system. Freij said buying goods from abroad typically requires converting the shekel into dollars or euros, but the abundance of Israeli currency on the market forces him to accept an unfavorable rate. - Dump - The Palestinian Monetary Authority (PMA), which functions as the central bank in the West Bank, has warned that paper shells are piling up because there is no way to return them to Israel. The governor of the AMP, Firas Melhem, told AFP that the accumulation of money is "a very worrying problem", causing headaches for banks and businesses. "If the problem is not resolved quickly, the Palestinian market will become a dump for shekel," he added. The shekel was established as the official currency of the Palestinian territories as a result of the economic protocols known as the "Paris accords", reached after the Oslo Accords between Israel and the Palestinians in 1994. But a lot has changed since then. By using more and more digital transactions, Israeli banks do not want to reabsorb the paper money that accumulates in the West Bank but does not circulate rapidly in the Israeli economy. The Bank of Israel cited security as another reason for not wanting the banknotes. "Uncontrolled cash transfers could be misused, especially in money laundering and terrorist financing, and would not be in line with international parameters," the bank said in a statement sent to AFP. - Solutions? - Palestinian banks have tried to get clients to reduce their cash deposits, but that runs the risk of limiting the capital available to banks, which would reduce their ability to offer loans. The excess liquidity prompted calls from some Palestinian specialists to discard the shekel to adopt a Palestinian currency or that of another nation, such as the Jordanian dinar, which also circulates in the West Bank. Meanwhile, the AMP is putting pressure on the Bank of Israel to accept more cash. But Melhem insisted that the Palestinians must also "catch up with the development of financial technologies" and move to cashless payment systems.

Many studies have been analyzing animals that, curiously, also sing melodies for some time. Why do they do it? Could it be an evolutionary trait? Although everyone prefers a sweet human voice that relaxes us with a melody, we also do not dislike waking up relaxed, thanks to the singing of the birds. Two creatures that sing sweetly, exchanging chirps and chirps, cannot be less than two birds (you think as you close your eyes, letting go and happily relaxed). You are wrong, however, they are two singing mice: tiny rodents from the forests of Central America that communicate like this. Their curious sounds lead us to an accurate but curious conclusion: songbirds are not the only animals (other than humans) that sing. In fact, there are more animals that sing than you might expect. So what species do? And do they sing just to find a partner and mark their territory, simply or perhaps also, like us, because they enjoy it? According to an article recently published in 'Live Science', first of all you have to understand what separates what we consider a song from other sounds. Few researchers claim to have a definitive answer, but in a simple way define a song as a sequence of tones, which can be repeated over a period of time in something that resembles what we would call a melody. Simply put, all songs are sounds, but not all sounds are songs. According to this definition, the barking of a dog or the croaking of a frog would not a priori be considered songs.Going one step further, a song involves a certain degree of composition, aided by the ability to improvise. Interestingly, the animals that sing are often those that learn their vocalizations from their parents, rather than being born with the ability, which underpins that ability to improvise. Although it is a subjective and deeply human definition of understanding something, singing is something of a shortened way of explaining a subset of animal cues that sound musical. Well then, what animals make it? The Mexican free-tailed bat (or Tadarida brasiliensis) tries to attract the attention of females during mating season with a high-pitched melody (so high, in fact, that humans need to tune in to special audio equipment to hear it). When you do catch the interest of a potential mate, update that 'song' with a variety of frequencies to keep the female intrigued long enough before mating begins. Gibbons, on the other hand, challenges humans as sublime singers. Not all species of gibbons sing, but those that produce complex arias that often intersperse long, high-pitched cries with shorter bursts of sound, using vocal mechanisms that researchers have found are common in opera singers as well. In addition, they can sing duets to strengthen social ties. And of course there are also the haunting songs of the humpback whale (the fascinating 52 hertz whale sings so no one can hear it), which biologist Roger Payne recorded on vinyl and distributed in 1970, captivating audiences during that time. They also showed that killer whales and belugas also sing, and that many whales have unique songs that serve to identify themselves.

The Suzuki V-Strom 650 and V-Strom 650 XT release new colors. And it is that the trail of medium displacement of the Japanese firm offers, thanks to its new chromatic range, a renewed image, despite keeping intact the rest of the elements that have made it one of the reference motorcycles in its segment. The V-Strom 650 has always stood out for its good manners towards the driver, its adaptation to all kinds of uses and situations, its reliability and its excellent compromise between performance and consumption. In fact, the bike is perfectly suited to drivers with little experience and also to the most demanding, since it is very agile on twisty roads, transmits great poise in more open areas and has a high capacity to roll on tracks, especially with the 650 XT version. As we announced at the beginning of the article, both versions are now available at dealers with new color combinations. White is maintained in the V-Strom 650 catalog, to which two new shades are added: Vivid Pearl Blue and Glazed Glossy Black, which incorporates yellow details. The new colors of the Suzuki V-Strom 650 | Photo: Suzuki The new colors of the Suzuki V-Strom 650 | Photo: Suzuki For its part, the V-Strom 650 XT variant maintains yellow and white in its chromatic range and adds Glazed Glossy Black (with blue details) and Pearl Blue / Matte Silver Metallic, a blue tone that incorporates silver details. . It should be noted that the Suzuki V-Strom 650 is currently marketed for a promotional price of 8,495 euros, while the Suzuki V-Strom 650 XT has a sale price of 8,995 euros. Both versions have free insurance for one year. Link: https://neomotor.sport.es/motos/la-suzuki-v-strom-650-estrena-nuevos-colores.html
