  3. For the ABA, this report is an important reference for decision-making in the financial sector The Dominican Republic is among the countries with the highest value of deposits per capita in Latin America, after reaching an average of USD $ 2,819 for the end of 2019, according to the VI Report on Financial Inclusion, published by the Latin American Federation of Banks (Felaban ). According to the study, which shows the performance in different indicators for 16 countries in the region, the Dominican Republic occupies the seventh position in that ranking, above Peru, Mexico, Bolivia, Paraguay, El Salvador, among others. In this regard, the Association of Commercial Banks of the Dominican Republic (ABA), stated that the excellent performance of this indicator, higher than that of eleven countries in the region, is a sign that bank deposits are a financial instrument well valued by the Dominicans, as explained in a press release. For the ABA, this report is an important reference for decision-making in the financial sector, since it expresses the reality of the banking performance in different indicators, from an external point of view. For its part, the VI Financial Inclusion Report also reveals that, in the last decade, financial intermediation entities have doubled credit per capita in the Dominican Republic, going from an average of USD $ 1,098 in 2009 to USD $ 2,657 in 2019. It also shows that the country continues to lead the geographical coverage, together with Chile, Colombia, Ecuador and El Salvador, in the use of banking subagents to carry out financial operations. This indicator, for the year 2019, closed with 746,698 service points in Latin America. Likewise, the FELABAN study indicates that at the end of 2019 the deposit balance of Latin American banks totaled USD $ 1.84 trillion, 3.8% higher than the figure reported at the end of 2018. He adds that this variable registers an increase of 75% compared to the figure shown 12 years ago, which shows the sustained growth of banking activity on the side of liabilities. “Given the arrival of the pandemic and the marked uncertainty, one effect that was seen was the increase in deposits. The more liquid a deposit instrument is, the more valuable it is today among economic agents. The public has turned its resources to deposits, leading to their increase during the year 2020, "said the entity that groups Latin American banks.

  4. A kid who grows up rooting for his hometown team starts a tech company in college, two decades later sells it for $ 8 billion, and then a rare chance to buy that NBA team out there and run it. It is a true story. His name is Ryan Smith, a 42-year-old Utah native and new owner of the Utah Jazz. He just bought the Jazz from the Miller family, who had owned the team since 1985. NBA owners approved the sale Thursday and the parties completed the closing of financial transactions Friday. "Adam (Silver, the NBA commissioner) told me directly when we called him," Smith told USA TODAY Sports in a Zoom interview. “He said, 'Ryan, you're lucky enough in life to be part of the NBA in some way and that's pretty incredible. But there are not many people in the world who have the opportunity to do this with their team. ' This is really how I feel. It is one thing to be part of a team. Being able to take charge of his team that he grew up watching and cheering on is not normal. " Smith's personal connection to the Jazz comes from his childhood and from watching Jazz games on television with his grandfather, who died about four years ago. It was very instrumental in my life, ”Smith said. “He loved everything about John Stockton, Darrell Griffith, Karl Malone and Hot Rod (Hundley). He loved everything about jazz. That's where I was exposed for the first time. For me, it's quite personal, just that trip with him. " Smith founded Qualtrics, a leading online survey software company, in 2002 with his father, brother, and friend. German giant SAP bought the company for $ 8 billion in 2018 and plans to list Qualtrics through an initial public offering possibly in early 2021. Smith will remain the CEO of Qualtrics. Smith has also helped turn Utah into Silicon Slopes, a mountainous, albeit less expensive, version of Silicon Valley. There is a half court basketball court inside Qualtrics headquarters in Provo, and Smith likes to play every morning from 6 to 7 and then come home to help his kids get ready for school before the day begins. labor. “I told the NBA (owners) that I've been in a lot of negotiations and made a lot of pretty big deals, but I've never been in a negotiation where it was a three-party negotiation where one was the buyer. One has been the vendor and the other has been the community, ”Smith said. Smith has been a season ticket holder and has been to most games in the past five seasons with seats next to Greg Miller, the Jazz CEO, son of Gail Miller, the president of Larry H. Miller Group. of Companies. The Millers bought 50% of the Jazz in 1985 and the remaining half in 1986. They built a strong NBA franchise that competed for championships and appeared in the playoffs regularly. Since 1984, the Jazz have missed the playoffs only eight times. Jazz is a fundamental pillar of the community. It's difficult for some new NBA owners to understand a franchise as a public trust, something that "belongs" to the fans, even if they are not owners. Smith understands. "I feel like the Millers at every point have stepped back or let the community have the largest seat in the room," Smith said. "This should be the example of how I think a sports franchise of any kind is transitioned into truly a stewardship. It's been said for years, which is often theoretical. But I'll tell you it's real. It's practical and I couldn't be more excited to take control of them and such an incredible organization. " Smith poked here and there to buy the previously included Jazz in February. "Gail said, 'We've had this in our family for 35 years and we're going to keep it.' That has been the answer for the entire state of Utah. It's almost like you don't even ask, "Smith said. Smith looked for other opportunities, especially the Minnesota Timberwolves. "At the end of the day, my wife (Ashley) reminded me as I was going down the road, 'Ryan, what is your plan here?' You know we are Jazz fans. This is what we do. This is what we do with our (five) children. Even in February, I was at a crossroads over whether to look for another opportunity. "

  7. France is analyzing the possibility of imposing local reconfinements to prevent a new outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic, which reaches alarming levels in England and has exceeded one million cases in South Africa. Vaccination campaigns are accelerating in Europe and the United States to control the virus, which killed more than 1.7 million people - including 186,000 in Russia, which revised its numbers up - and infected more than 80 million, but the WHO is concerned about what is to come, and that it could be "worse" than seen so far. France, despite the hopes raised by the start of the vaccination campaign, closes the year under the threat of a possible new confinement, which could be local according to certain officials, and which was the subject of study by a defense council meeting on Tuesday morning and chaired by Head of State Emmanuel Macron. In the last seven days, 12,000 new cases of contagion were detected daily in France, far from the 5,000 target set by the government. In England, the number of hospitalized for covid-19 exceeded the peak of the first wave, with 20,426 people admitted on Monday, and the number of infections reached a new record of 41,385. Since the beginning of the pandemic, more than 2.3 million people have been infected and 71,000 have died from covid-19 in the country. "Here we are again in the eye of the hurricane with a second wave of coronavirus sweeping Europe and this country," declared the director general of the NHS (the British national health service), Simon Stevens, in a video posted on Twitter. Spain receives new vaccines Spain received "more than 350,000 doses" of the Pfizer / BioNTech vaccine against covid-19 on Tuesday, the day after a logistics incident in Belgium that prevented its delivery early on Monday, the government announced. With more than 50,000 dead since the start of the pandemic, according to the official count, Spain received the first doses on Saturday, December 26. The long-awaited vaccination campaign began on Sunday, like most countries in the European Union, and on Monday it should receive this first large shipment. However, delivery in Spain - and in seven other European countries that were not specified - was delayed 24 hours by a "minor logistical problem," said Pfizer, which is distributing the vaccine throughout Europe from its Puurs factory. (Belgium). Belarus announced on Tuesday the start of its vaccination campaign with the arrival of the first batch of Russian Sputnik V vaccines. In recent days, batches of Sputnik V have been sent to Argentina - so far, the only Latin American country to authorize this vaccine and which received 300,000 doses last week - and to Hungary. Moscow hopes to have "millions of doses" by next year.

  8. The November Google Camera update has disabled the ability to take astrophotographs with the wide angle lens on the Pixel 5 and 4a 5G. The astrophotography mode is available for Google mobiles from Pixel 3 within the 'night vision mode', and allows you to take pictures of the night sky, with a fairly successful result that allows you to capture the stars. In the case of the latest models in the range, Pixel 5 and 4a 5G, it allows to go to the wide angle lens of 107 degrees when a 6x zoom is reached. The v.8.1 update of the Camera that Google distributed in mid-November has disabled the possibility of switching to the wide-angle lens with astrophotography, as reported by the 9to5Google portal. Thus, when the user tries to zoom and look for the lens change, the screen displays the message, "Zoom 1x for astrophotography", since the option that appeared with the 6x zoom has disappeared. The company has an update on its Support page, where it explains that, in the aforementioned devices, "astrophotography only works when you are using a zoom of 1x or higher".

  9. With what has happened in recent months, one of the things that is most talked about is ARM, either because of the transition of Apple processors or because of the purchase of NVIDIA. Suddenly the ARM register and instruction set has become the talk of all, to the point where it is said that Intel and ARM could abandon x86 processors. But to what extent is that feasible?. Intel and AMD have long dominated the market for PC processors, thanks to the fact that they have the exclusive power to manufacture CPUs capable of executing x86-64 code, but at the same time we do not stop reading and hearing that x86's days are numbered and that even when the time comes, both Intel and AMD could go 100% ARM. Why is there so much talk about ARM lately? Due to two events that have occurred this year, on the one hand, the fact that Apple has stopped using Intel x86 processors for its Macintosh computers to create its own processors, based on the ARM set of registers and instructions. The second reason has been for the purchase of ARM Holdings by NVIDIA, both events have put ARM in the front row of the news. A market too crowded for the taste of Intel and AMD ARM's business model is to license its processors so that others can make clones of them or create technology compatible with them, in exchange ARM Holdings takes a small royalty for the rights to use the technology. Intel and AMD, on the other hand, have the exclusive use of the whole of the x86-64 ISA, through a series of crossed patents between the two companies, they enjoy an agreed oligopoly in which if you want to be able to execute a program compiled in x86- 64 you will need to use a processor from these two brands, this causes a lack of price competition that keeps the prices of these processors high. If Intel and AMD entered the ARM market then there would be more to spread the cake, which means price competition and less profit for them.

  13. The global sale of computers and tablets will close 2019 with a slight increase of 0.5% thanks to the renewal of equipment caused by the definitive suspension of official support for Windows 7, according to IDC, which nevertheless believes that the sector will suffer a medium decline 2.6% per year between now and 2023. The American consultancy has just revised upwards its forecasts for 2019 and considers that during the whole year the manufacturers of PCs, laptops and tablets will have delivered 407.7 million computers to stores. 'The upcoming end of support for Windows 7 (announced by Microsoft for January 2020) has been a boon for the industry, as companies around the world have been looking for' hardware 'updates in 2019,' 'explains the analyst from IDC Jitesh Ubrani. Microsoft itself has urged the search for alternatives to that version of its operating system, which in January it will cease to support and therefore will lack updates and will lose compatibility with other programs). In Spain, the National Institute of Cybersecurity (Incibe) has even recommended that companies look for alternatives, since Microsoft will stop solving any problems or security flaws that are discovered. Despite the upturn in sales caused by this eventuality, IDC believes that other factors such as the imposition of tariffs and the foreseeable shortage of chips suggest a short-term drop in orders from distributors of 7%. In four years, global sales could fall to 366.7 million, representing a compound rate of decline of 2.6% per year, dragged mainly by traditional PCs and conventional tablets. "With increasingly cloud computing and spreading across a growing number of devices, objects and sensors, substantial growth in the PC and tablet market is unlikely," explains Linn Huang, analyst at IDC. The only business areas where progress is expected are in the sale of convertible notebooks (which can also be used as tablets) and lighter notebooks (simple notebooks). The greatest advance will be achieved by devices that have integrated 4G mobile communications and, above all, 5G. Thus, the global sale of conventional personal computers will tend to fall by an average of 5% per year, to have a market share of 21% with respect to all this type of devices, from the current 23%. Similarly, laptops will fall at an average rate of 9.5% until 2023 and their market share will go from 18 to 14%, while tablets will fall by 11% to go from 26 to 18%. In contrast, ultralight laptops (5% compound annual growth rate) will gain ground to gain a 27% share, and convertibles (9%) to reach 20%.

  14. The Moroccan Ministry of Health today launched the 'Wiqaytna' application to be installed on mobile phones on a voluntary basis in order to track the spread of the coronavirus among the po[CENSORED]tion. The department explained that users have to register in the application and leave the bluetooth connection of their mobile phones open to receive a notification in case of physical proximity with another infected user, provided that the latter has also downloaded the application. This same notification reaches the specialized teams of the Ministry of Health simultaneously, which allows them to carry out an assessment of the risk of spreading the virus and, if necessary, contact the person concerned. According to the Moroccan authorities, this project, carried out by Moroccan engineers in collaboration with the Ministry of the Interior, aims to limit infections, minimize the circulation of the virus and guarantee rapid medical intervention to protect lives and preserve the health system. The application, which will notify the physical proximity to those infected in the last 21 days after contact, has the authorization of the National Commission for the Control of Personal Data Protection (CNDP). The epidemiological situation in Morocco is controlled (with 7,819 infected, of which 205 have died and 5,754 have been cured), and almost half of the country's provinces declared themselves free of the virus in recent days.

The connection is also improved, being of the user - use type, Peer-to-peer (P2P), that is, a connection between users and not through the server. Player mechanics The avatar is the character that the player plays with, it can be at will, male or female. HP (health points): these are the player's health points. The player has a base life of 100 points, but with the help of skills and clothing, this limit can be extended to a higher figure. SP (Stamina Points): They are resistance points. With these you can perform pirouettes to evade enemy fire, or move quickly, go through walls and use skills. This energy bar is consumed with use, but it slowly resets automatically. Skills or Abilities: These are special abilities that players can have in the game. Clothing: The character's wardrobe is divided into Chair (increases Defense), face (increases EXP points), gloves (increases HP), torso (increases Attack), pants (increases Defense), shoes (increases HP), accessories (increases SP and Experience) and pet (increases various factors based on its stats). Game modes It consists of the confrontation of 2 opposing teams (αlpha against βeta) with a maximum of 12 players (6 per team) and at least 4 (2 against 2) in matches of 10 to 30 minutes, divided into 2 times (Only in TD, DM). These games can be of different types according to the objective of the teams, according to the chosen mode: Touch Down (TD): The objective is to score as many points as possible, wearing the Fumbi, which is a doll symbol of the game that acts like a ball, located in the center of the field (TD maps usually have a symmetrical shape, although not in the characteristics of the environment) to the opposing goal, in addition to defending the goal of your team preventing the opposing team from scoring. After the game is over, the team with the highest score wins (one point for each TD), or if one of the teams marks the point limit (variable depending on the duration of the game. If in the round, the time is ends and with this both teams end in a tie, victory will be decided by the total number of points scored in that round. Death Match (DM): The objective is to cause as many deaths as possible to the members of the opposing team (registered by one marker per team). When the game ends, the team with the highest number of deaths in favor wins, or if a team reaches the limit score, (variable according to the duration of the game) with time remaining. If time runs out in the round and both teams are tied, victory will be decided by the total number of points scored in that round. Chaser: this is a game mode in which together with your tutor you must fight against the other members of the room, or be part of the other members to fight against the character and her tutor. You can go in the team 1 against all or all against 1 (the choice of the Chase, who plays against the other players, is random. The game is restarted within the server when the Chaser eliminates all the players, they eliminate it or only time is running out). To make up for the lack of teammates, the pursuer has roughly 100 times more defense than the other players, and her shots or punches take out the opponent in just a couple of hits (except for the sentry who deals normal damage). Although the pursuer can kill any enemy at any time, 1 specific player (the one who tops the point rankings so far) is selected to be the "target player". if the hunter kills him, he receives 4 points instead of the 2 points you get for killing another person. After the "target player" dies, the player alive with the most points takes his place. The "target player" is marked with a green marker that all players (including himself and the pursuer) can see even through walls, making it impossible to ambush with close-range weapons or hide behind an object. Battle Royal (BR): It is a game mode similar to Death Match, although with only one difference: you will face completely only other players in the room. Without equipment. In this game mode you must try to be the best in the room to be in the position of the target, the target player. Where all the other players will try to kill you, which will carry a mark that they can see through the walls, since if they do so they will get 5 points instead of the 2 they receive for killing any other player. Captain Mode (CM) - This new game mode is a Team Death Match game mode in which players from both teams enter the game with a Captain's crown on their head, increasing their HP from 100 to 500 depending on the number of players on the team. Form a team and try to finish off all the crowned players of the opposing team, but be careful: when you are killed, you will lose your own crown. Now all you can do is take revenge and take out as many captains from the other team as possible! The team with the last captain standing, or more captains than the opposing team when time runs out wins a round, the team that wins the most rounds wins the match. Captains' HP will vary depending on how many they find on each team. Example: if there are only 2 captains on your team and there are 4 on the other, your HP and that of your team will be 1000. Burning mode This mode makes the player momentarily more powerful, resilient and faster during a game. However, to activate this mode, these factors must be taken into account: If it is a TD Game Burning the mode will automatically manifest itself on the team where the player is losing by 4 points. If it is a DM, BR, Siege or Warfare The player can activate the burn mode if he has died 3 times in a row if he has not been able to kill anyone (but for this particular method, the Game Master must decide if this will be allowed during the game or not) In Chaser mode, the player who is the chaser will automatically enter Burning mode. ------------------------------------------- System Requirements ------------------------------------------- CPU: 3.0Ghz single core or better.

  19. With Rocket Lake just around the corner it seems incredible that rumors about a twelfth generation, this time based on Intel's 10nm process, are so close, but keep in mind that Intel does not only need to make a hit of effect against AMD, who with their Zen architectures have become more than a worthy rival. Rumors suggest that Alder Lake, Intel's twelfth generation architecture, could see the light of day in 2021. It should be remembered that Rocket Lake continues to use Intel's 14 nm node while its successor will make use of the 10 nm node, the that until now Intel has not dared to launch high-performance chips under it. We cannot forget the Intel Xe either, we should see the Intel Xe-HP for advanced data centers, as well as the Intel Xe-HPG with which Intel intends to stand up to NVIDIA and AMD in the enthusiast range of dedicated graphics cards. Intel's high-end dedicated GPUs will also be manufactured under its 10nm node. Market share is important to Intel If we look at the historical market share of both Intel and AMD we will see that the former has smoothly dominated the market share, which means having to make more chips due to much higher demand. The fact that Intel has been investing to double the output of its factories in recent years makes sense considering its typical market share. The production-level problems of their 10 nm nodes led them to have to opt for smaller designs in order to get more chips per wafer, however despite Intel's propaganda there is still some skepticism in the sector. So it is very likely that the increase in production is not accompanied by affordable entry prices. So don't expect the 12th Gen Intel Core to be cheap, the fact that the Rocket Lake CPUs are so close at launch is a clue to that.

  20. Google announces the closure of Android Things, the platform for connected devices that did not get off the ground Google has announced the closure of Android Things, a version of its operating system designed for Internet of Things (IoT) devices that has not had a commercial impact and that will cease to function permanently in January 2022. Under the name Brillo, Google introduced in 2015 an operating system for low-power devices related to home automation with up to 32 MB of RAM that could connect to the Internet. With it, the company sought to standardize the use of refrigerators, lamps or thermostats - devices that have a very specific function and would simply understand certain patterns. Google announces the closure of Android Things, the platform for connected devices that did not get off the ground Three years later, Brillo was renamed Android Things and focused on developers. In its version 1.0, 'hardware' certifications and long-term support for the production of IoT devices based on the Android operating system were included. Google announces the closure of Android Things, the platform for connected devices that did not get off the ground In 2018, some connected devices with support for this platform were marketed, without becoming widespread. And a year later, the company announced a turn in the development of this platform, to focus on the development of smart speakers and displays. Google announces the closure of Android Things, the platform for connected devices that did not get off the ground Now, Google has announced the closure of Android Things, which will take place in phases. Thus, the console of this platform will no longer allow creating new projects with NXP i.MX7D and Raspberry Pi 3B as of January 5, 2021. Google announces the closure of Android Things, the platform for connected devices that did not get off the ground The final closure will come on January 5, 2022, when "the console will be completely shut down and all project data will be permanently deleted, including build configurations and factory images," Google reported on the developer blog. .

  21. At the kilometer 9 terminal the buses leave full of people and although Public Health and Intrant personnel try to prevent it, people do not pay attention. On the eve of Christmas Eve, the main intercity bus terminals receive thousands of passengers seeking to travel to their towns. From the first hours the demand for seats has increased. People board the vehicles without due distancing despite the demands of the authorities. At the kilometer 9 terminal the buses leave full of people and although Public Health and Intrant personnel try to prevent it, people do not pay attention. The drivers do little to comply with the distance imposed by the protocol and argue that if the units leave with only 70% of passengers as claimed, they would have losses. People do not seem to care much about getting infected because in a tour of different terminals you can see the agglomeration of people. Antonio Marte, president of Conatra, affirms that he fears a recurrence of COVID-19 because the distancing is not being respected. In Caribe Tours the ticket office was full of passengers, as was the waiting room to board a bus, but the operations manager, Francisco Marmolejos, said that compared to last year to date the flow is lower. Here there is more control with distancing and the protocol for both sanitation and approach is followed. Each bus only carries 70% of its capacity as established by the protocol. Juan Marte, president of the National Confederation of Transport Workers (CNTT) said that towards the Cibao the number of passengers has increased and said that they maintain the same price of the passage. He clarified that in urban transport the passenger is asked for five pesos more, but that it is optional and in the same way 10 pesos to the interurban, also at the will of the users to compensate a little for the operational deficit. He indicated that from January the Government will have to sit down with the drivers to discuss a new rate. William Pérez Figuereo, president of the Central National of Unified Transporters, said that this Christmas will be very bitter for the transport sector because in addition to the limitations imposed by the pandemic with physical distancing and protocol, drivers have to buy much more fuel expensive. He considered that the restrictive measures imposed by the government directly affect the driver sector, but that they must be complied with for the health of the people.

And he denounced: «It cannot be expected that closed nationalism will prevent us from living as the true human family that we are. We cannot let the virus of radical individualism win and leave us indifferent to the suffering of the other brothers. «We cannot put ourselves first before the others. Market laws and patents cannot be on the law of love and health of humanity, "he added. Given this, I ask all those responsible for the States, international organizations and companies, “to propose cooperation and not competition, and seek a solution for all. Vaccines for everyone. Especially for the most vulnerable and needy on the planet. “Faced with a challenge that knows no borders, no barriers can be erected. We are all in the same boat, ”said Francisco from the blessings hall of the basilica.

"May their faces touch the consciences of people of good will, so that the causes of conflicts can be addressed and courageously worked to build a future of peace," he added. He prayed for this to be the moment "that tensions throughout the Middle East and the eastern Mediterranean dissolve." And also that "the Child Jesus heals once again the wounds of the beloved people of Syria, who for a decade have been exhausted by the war and its consequences, further aggravated by the pandemic", and "bring comfort to the Iraqi people and all the who have committed themselves to the path of reconciliation, especially the Yazidis, who have been severely beaten in the last years of war.
