  1. Las Vegas. El Chevrolet Corvette 2020 está programado para llegar a nuestro mercado en el segundo trimestre del año, el precio inicial es de $1,999,000 pesos y sin embargo la producción destinada a nuestro mercado para este año, ya se agotó. Tanto el exterior, como el interior están inspirados en los jets de combate, y aunque mucho se ha hablado que en ciertos ángulos se parece demasiado a un Ferrari e incluso en otros a un Lamborghini, lo cual de cierta manera tiene algo de verdad, el nuevo Corvette 2020 sí tiene una personalidad propia. Los trazos son muy marcados y dramáticos, las entradas de aire tanto del frontal, como de los costados son muy grandes, una necesidad, para proveer de aire al motor y demás componentes mecánicos, en el costado las cosas se vuelven un poco más limpias y destaca la ausencia de una manija para abrir la puerta, hay un pequeño botón ubicado debajo del saliente que luego se convierte en la entrada de aire lateral. Es ancho, muy bajo y en general luce bastante atlético, mientras que en la parte trasera encontramos las clásicas calaveras dobles, aunque también con un estilo muy dramático. Rematan las salidas de escape dobles casi cuadradas que, por cierto, emiten una nota adictiva. El alerón posterior seccionado en dos tiene la capacidad de generar unos 180 kilos de carga aerodinámica cuando el auto rueda a una velocidad de 290 km/h. Un detalle interesante es que no solo cuenta con una cajuela frontal suficiente para una maleta carry on y un back pack, sino que atrás, tiene otra que permite acomodar el toldo cuando lo desmontas, o bien, dos bolsas de palos de golf. En conjunto, ambos espacios ofrecen una capacidad de 357 litros. Este nuevo chasis de aluminio tiene como columna vertebral el túnel de la transmisión, mismo que es extremadamente robusto, esto permitió aumentar la rigidez estructural, y al mismo tiempo mantener el característico techo desmontable. Bajo la tapa del motor se deja ver un nuevo V8 small block de 6.2 litros denominado LT2 de aspiración natural que entrega 495 hp y 470 lb-pie de torque cuando se trata del paquete Performance Z51 que es la versión que llega a México, ya que las variantes de entrada genran 5 hp menos, esta mecánica fue desarrollada para entregar mucho par a bajo régimen y mantener los niveles de respuesta en toda la banda de revoluciones. La transmisión ahora es de doble clutch y ocho velocidades, promete cambios a velocidades de relámpago, sin dejar de entregar los niveles de confort y refinamiento que todo auto americano debe entregar en condiciones de manejo citadino. Algo que por lo menos en nuestro primer contacto, pudimos constatar. Regresando a las versiones que llegan a México, el paquete Z51, un sistema de frenos más grande, kit aerodinámico, sistema de enfriamiento más capaz, suspensión más deportiva, así como diferencial de derrape limitado. Con todos estos componentes adicionales, el Corvette Stingray 2020 es capaz de hacer un 0 – 60 mph (96 km/h) en 2.9 segundos. Por su parte, el tope de gama es el Z51 Performance Package, que agrega una nueva generación de la suspensión adaptativa magnética. Esta nueva generación es capaz de leer mejor el camino gracias a unos nuevos acelerómetros montados en cada amortiguador, asimismo su electrónica mejorada le permite reaccionar más rápido. Siguiendo con el equipamiento adicional, el sistema ESP tiene un modo Performance que permite al conductor jugar más con el eje trasero sin perder la red de seguridad, adicionalmente, en el interior encontramos insertos en fibra de carbono, volante forrado en alcántara y asientos de competencia GT2. Por otra parte, la suspensión se puede elevar 40 mm cuando es necesario, como al entrar a una rampa o pasar un tope y el Corvette es capaz de guardar a través del GPS, la ubicación en donde el conductor eligió elevarla, para que la siguiente vez que circule por ahí, el vehículo se eleve de forma automática. Mas impresionante aun, es que es capaz de salvar hasta 1,000 ubicaciones y accionarlo a velocidades de hasta 38.6 km/h. Por cierto, esta tecnología viene de serie en ambas versiones. En otros temas no menos relevantes, el Corvette 2020 representa un salto cuántico en el interior, si bien el C7 ya era un producto muy bien logrado en ese sentido, ahora, Chevrolet logró darle una atmósfera de auto verdaderamente exótico. El clúster es digital de 12”, y a un costado tiene una pantalla táctil de 8” compatible con Carplay y Android Auto, hay también head up display, sistema de audio Bose Performance System de 14 bocinas que promete fidelidad y calidad del más alto nivel. Por último, el Performance Data Recorder también evoluciona, ahora aportará mayor información específica de los circuitos, mientras que la telemetría es más completa que antes y la grabaciones son en alta definición 1080p.

  4. Joe Biden's presidential campaign has distanced itself from his assertions he was arrested in South Africa while trying to visit Nelson Mandela. Mr Biden has said he was arrested during a trip to the country in the 1970s, when it was under apartheid. But a deputy campaign manager told reporters he had been referring to an episode where he was separated from black colleagues at an airport. He is third in the race for the Democrats' presidential nomination. He first made the assertion at an event in South Carolina earlier this month, reminiscing about his personal history with Mandela, South Africa's first black president who died in 2013. Mr Biden - at the time a senator for Delaware - said he had been visiting the country with a delegation of American officials, and had planned to visit Mandela in prison. But during the trip, Mr Biden said he had "had the great honour of being arrested with our UN ambassador on the streets of Soweto" while trying to reach the civil rights leader on Robben Island. The town of Soweto is more than 760 miles (1,223km) from Robben Island. At a black history awards brunch in Las Vegas last week, he also said Mandela had thanked him for his efforts. "He threw his arms around me and said, 'I want to say thank you,'" Mr Biden told onlookers. "I said, 'What are you thanking me for, Mr President?' He said: 'You tried to see me. You got arrested trying to see me.'" Mr Biden's account of what happened has been rebuffed by Andrew Young, a former US ambassador to the UN, who says he travelled with Mr Biden to South Africa. Local media have also failed to find any evidence of an arrest being made. On Tuesday Mr Biden's deputy campaign manager, Kate Bedingfield, told reporters Mr Biden had been referring to an incident when "he was separated from his party at Johannesburg airport". When a journalist noted that being separated did not equate with an arrest, Ms Bedingfield repeated that it had been a "separation". "They, he was not allowed to go through the same door that the - the rest of the party he was with," said Ms Bedingfield. "Obviously, it was apartheid South Africa. There was a white door, there was a black door. He did not want to go through the white door and have the rest of the party go through the black door. He was separated." The account echoes earlier comments made by Mr Biden, but a statement he made in 2013 gives a different account of his trip. "When I exited the plane I was directed to one side of the tarmac, while the African American congressmen travelling with me were sent to the other side," said Mr Biden. "I refused to break off, and the officials finally relented." He has faced scrutiny for his verbal gaffes and his long and sometimes controversial political career, including his vote in favour of the Iraq war. Republicans have been hammering away at him for his son's lucrative board position with a Ukrainian natural gas firm when he was vice-president and in charge of American-Ukrainian relations. The issue came up in the Trump impeachment case. Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders currently holds the most delegates for the Democrats' presidential nomination, followed by Indiana mayor Pete Buttigieg and Mr Biden.
  5. Frog has announced the “JFrog Platform,” a new hybrid and multi-cloud universal DevOps Platform designed to deliver DevSecOps, CI/CD and software distribution solutions in an all-in-one experience. “Developers consistently tell us that for DevOps to be successful, they require several key elements: best-of-breed package management, advanced CI/CD solutions that span and control the pipeline all the way through distribution and security baked in for a unified DevSecOps experience,” said Yoav Landman, CTO and co-founder of JFrog. “At the same time, as many shops look to automate everything that happens between Git and Kubernetes, they must maintain tool quality and easily integrate existing technology choices through open APIs. We’re proud to deliver the JFrog Platform to address these end-to-end automation requirements.” The JFrog Platform release includes support for all major package types with JFrog Artifactory; automation through REST APIs and CLI across the platform; advanced speed and efficiency with universal navigation, UX and metadata models across all of the products; unified administration; pipeline automaton; and JFrog services natively integrated across the JFrog Platform. In addition, the new release comes with the inclusion and full integration of JFrog Pipelines, the company’s centralized, cloud-native DevOps pipeline automation and orchestration solution. Pipelines blends Shipple’s CI/CD tool into the company’s platform. JFrog acquired Shippable in February of last year. “Digital transformation in the enterprise is driven by software, and software is being indisputably transformed by DevOps,” said Shlomi Ben Haim, CEO and co-founder of JFrog. “As global enterprises adopt cloud native practices to increase speed, security and automation, they demand DevOps solutions that allow them to avoid vendor lock-in – both in technology and infrastructure choices. We’re honored to respect and reflect these requirements with universal, hybrid, multi-cloud solutions.”
  6. As expected, Intel has launched its 2nd Generation Xeon Scalable 'Cascade Lake' Refresh family with several new SKUs offering higher core, thread, cache counts at better perf/dollar ratios to compete against AMD's 2nd Gen EPYC Rome CPUs. The new processors retain the 14nm process node which is now in its more advanced form to date, offering Intel to boost up the clock speeds even further. Intel Refreshes Xeon Scalable 'Cascade Lake' Server CPU Family - Now With More Cores, Threads, Cache & Competitive Prices The launch comes as no surprise as we had already got to know about Intel's 2nd Generation Xeon Scalable Refresh family of processors earlier this month. Today, Intel is officially unveiling the new lineup which is composed of 18 SKUs, ranging all the way from 8 to 24 cores. It's not a complete top-to-bottom refresh as Intel has primarily focused on its Gold, Silver and Bronze series while the Platinum line of Xeon Scalable processors remains unchanged. “Intel’s data-centric platforms offer the broadest market coverage of any server processor platform -– from the cloud, through the network, to the intelligent edge,” said Lisa Spelman, corporate vice president and general manager of the Xeon and Memory Group within Intel’s Data Platform Group. “Working closely with our customers, we are delivering these new server processors to address their performance and pricing needs across a broad range of markets and workloads.” - Intel The Xeon Platinum line did receive price cuts last month so that has to be taken into account but the 2nd Gen family offers completely new specifications. Intel has reported up to 36% performance improvement and up to 42% more performance per dollar compared to its initial Xeon Cascade Lake lineup. According to Intel themselves, the new Xeon family brings: Industry-leading frequencies for high-performance usages: New Intel Xeon Gold 6200 processors deliver up to 4.5 GHz processor frequency with Intel Turbo Boost Technology and up to 33% more processor cache, offering customers breakthrough performance for frequency-fueled workloads. Enhanced performance for mainstream usages: New Intel Xeon Gold 6200R and 5200R processors deliver built-in value through a combination of higher base and Intel Turbo Boost Technology frequencies, in addition to increased processor cache. Increased value and capability for entry-level, edge, networking and IoT usages: New Intel Xeon Gold 6200U, Silver 4200R, Silver 4210T and Bronze 3200R processors deliver increased value for single-socket entry-level servers, as well as edge, networking, and internet of things (IoT) usages. Coming to the SKUs, all 18 SKUs are labeled with the 'R' suffix at the very end of their codename which indicates the Refresh part. As mentioned, most of these SKUs are part of the Xeon Gold and Xeon Silver segment while the Xeon Platinum CPUs would stick to their existing specifications. Intel has already announced some significant price cuts to its Xeon Platinum lineup recently without changing the specifications. However, recent benchmarks have shown that top-tier EPYC parts are still doing very well compared to whatever Intel has to respond with despite price cuts of several thousand dollars. An example would be the Xeon Platinum 8280 itself which has been cut from its original price of $18,000 US to $13,000 US. There wasn't a 28 core part in the Xeon Gold segment so that's new. The Xeon Gold segment now also offers a faster 16 core variant while the Bronze line is upgraded to 8 cores versus 6 cores of the previous SKU. Following is the list of all the chips with their respective specifications. All across the board, we can see a boost in clocks, cores, threads, and cache which is a nice initiative by Intel to retain their server dominance with a market share of around 95%. Following is the specifications list for the complete lineup. The only advantage that the Xeon Platinum lineup has on its own now is 8S support since the Gold series only support 2S configurations. Aside from that, the Gold series offers more competitive prices that may in fact put more pressure on sales figures for the Platinum lineup. All of the said chips are available starting today so they will show up on retail stores rather soon. This refresh further confirms the reports of delays we are hearing regarding Intel's Cooper Lake and Ice Lake Xeon processors which have been pushed back by up to 3 months due to various instability issues. This would further increase the pressure on Intel as their 10nm and 14nm Xeon processors would be directly competing against AMD's 7nm+ EUV based EPYC Milan lineup which is going to feature the brand new Zen 3 core architecture which is confirmed to be one of AMD's biggest architectural upgrade since the original Zen core. But recent benchmarks have shown that the next-generation Xeon Scalable family is pushing some serious performance figures which if true might totally be worth the wait.

  8. A photo of a baby panda tumbling head first off a platform has taken the world by storm. The panda, one of 23 baby bears, was placed on a platform as researchers at China’s Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding prepared to showcase them to world, according to an ABC affiliate site. While the other little bears appear to be snoozing during the photography session, one curious baby panda got a bit ahead of itself. The poor thing is seen toppling over the side of the green platform as a researcher rushes forward. I’m sure the baby is just fine, however, as the platform doesn't seem to be elevated more than a foot or so from the ground. Despite the researcher's rescue attempt, it is clear the panda hit the ground before being caught. While it's slightly heart wrenching, it's also apparent all the babies are being well-cared for and are content with their moment in the spotlight. Photographers zoomed in on the resting babies as they lazily yawned for the camera. The adorable photos are circulating the internet as we all "oh" and "awe" over the tiny bears. Thanks to the Chengdu Research Base's conservation efforts, pandas have been removed from the endangered species list to be named as a vulnerable species instead. The Chengdu Research Base operates the world's largest artificial breeding program that is responsible for the birth of these new pandas seen pictured. While panda numbers are increasing, the species still faces habitat loss and destruction. However bleak the panda's environmental situation may be, their numbers have seen a steady rise in recent years. As you can see, crowds gathered to witness the unveiling of China's latest panda additions as they were proudly displayed to show the Chengdu Research Base's success. I'm sure having one of the baby pandas caught on camera as it tumbled off the stage wasn't in the plans, but all seems to be fine despite the minor mishap. Plus, it gained the babies a worldwide audience as they made their first appearance.
  9. Por fin, la segunda generación de la Audi Q3 está en nuestro país, un modelo de gran importancia para la firma en nuestro mercado, puesto que genera un volumen bastante interesante. Si te preguntabas las causas del retraso en los lanzamientos recientes de Audi, esto se debe al nuevo proceso de homologación que entró en vigor, la marca antes podía solicitar a planta la fabricación de las unidades y homologar los productos a la par, ahora no es así, ningún auto se fabrica si la central no tiene antes los documentos de homologación y este cambio ha impactado muchísimo la rapidez con que Audi puede traer sus nuevos lanzamientos. Sin embargo, lo anterior es solo una parte de la película, ya que la caída del segmento premium el año pasado fue del 11%, pasando de 67,670 unidades en 2019 a 60,248 en 2019. Es decir, el mercado de lujo cayó más que el de volumen, incertidumbre económica y la inseguridad que prevalece en todo el país son las principales causas. Pero regresando a lo que hoy nos ocupa, la nueva Audi Q3 2020, llega con dos motorizaciones, sorpresivamente el nuevo 1.5 litros turbo que ya está disponible en el nuevo Audi A1 2020 no está dentro de las opciones. La razón, nuevamente el tema de las homologaciones, el esperar por ese motor habría retrasado aún más el lanzamiento de un producto estratégico para Audi en nuestro país, entonces en la parte baja tenemos a la Q3 35 TFSI con el viejo conocido cuatro cilindros 1.4T de 150 hp y 184 lb-pie de torque asociado a una caja S-Tronic de doble embrague y seis velocidades que envía la potencia al tren delantero. Mientras que en la parte alta está la Q3 40 TFSI que emplea un 2.0 turbo con 180 hp y 236 lb-pie de torque asociado a una transmisión también S-Tronic de doble clutch pero con siete cambios que envía la potencia a las cuatro ruedas. Al adoptar la plataforma MQB, la nueva Audi Q3 2020 crece en dimensiones, es 96 mm más larga, 77 más grande en cuanto a distancia entre ejes. Las medidas quedan así: 4,484 mm largo, 1,849 mm de ancho y 1,856 mm de alto. Por su parte, la distancia entre ejes es de 2,680 mm. La ganancia parece no ser muy grande, pero gracias a un mejor aprovechamiento del espacio interior, la banca trasera es mucho más amplia que antes, sin considerar que se puede recorrer hasta en 150 mm, ya sea para dejar más espacio para las piernas de los ocupantes posteriores o ganar espacio de carga. Ya que hablamos de la cajuela, la capacidad es de 525 litros que pueden crecer hasta 625 cuando se recorre la banca lo más adelante posible, mientras que, al abatir el respaldo de los asientos de atrás, el espacio se incrementa hasta 1,525 litros. Puertas adentro, nos recibe una cabina muy ad hoc con lo que ha presentado la marca en los últimos tiempos, trazos rectos y un marcado protagonismo para la pantalla central de info – entretenimiento que para nuestro mercado es de 8.8 pulgadas y cuenta tanto con Android Auto como Apple Carplay, mientras que el virtual cockpit de serie es de 10.25”, aunque de manera opcional se puede elegir el de 12.3”. Como siempre, tanto la calidad de ensamble, como los acabados no tienen queja, e incluso encontramos algunos insertos en alcántara (pueden ser café, gris o naranja) que tanto en tablero como puertas que le dan una apariencia y tacto muy agradables, al tiempo que evitan el abuso de las superficies en negro piano. En cuanto al equipamiento, evidentemente hay cambios dependiendo de la versión, pero encontramos climatizador automático de dos zonas con salidas de aire para los pasajeros traseros, cargador por inducción, techo panorámico, así como acceso y arranque mediante llave inteligente como los elementos más destacados. En este primer contacto en México, solo estaba disponible la Q3 35 TFSI, es decir, con mecánica de 1.4 litros, para saber cómo se desempeña la variante 2.0 litros habrá que esperar a mayo, cuando Audi lance la nueva Q3 Sportback, y que, para efectos de acciones con prensa, serán las que estén disponibles con el motor más potente. No hay sorpresas aquí, este tren motor es ya un viejo conocido y lo hemos probado en distintas aplicaciones, tanto de Audi, como de SEAT o Volkswagen. Pese a que es un conjunto mecánico algo veterano, la capacidad de respuesta es buena y salvo por el ya conocido turbolag que tiene el 1.4 turbo, el funcionamiento, sobre todo en el rango medio de revoluciones es excelente. Audi eligió la ruta de Guadalajara a Puerto Vallarta para que tuviéramos oportunidad de probar a fondo su nueva Q3 2020, el primer tramo, como es probable que sepas es de autopistas, en donde pudimos constatar una vez más que si bien, el ajuste de la suspensión está más orientado a la comodidad, es perfectamente capaz de controlar al vehículo a muy altas velocidades, la Q3 va muy bien plantada y transmite mucha confianza. La dirección también retroalimenta adecuadamente y en lo general el refinamiento es muy bueno, particularmente el aislamiento acústico es destacado. Ya en la segunda parte del recorrido, los camiones y semáforos te pueden hacer olvidar que el camino ofrece algunos tramos de [CENSORED]s bastante complejos y que en un auto con buenas credenciales, pueden ser bastante divertidos. La Audi Q3 demostró que es capaz de entrar a caminos sinuosos con mucho aplomo, la tendencia natural es a subvirar, pero el límite es bastante más elevado de lo que pensarías en primera instancia, y cuando se presenta, es muy fácil de corregir, basta soltar un poco el acelerador para solucionarlo (dentro de los límites de la física claro está). Aun cuando se trata de la versión de tracción delantera, el agarre es bueno y te hace olvidar que el centro de gravedad es más elevado.
  10. V2 - Good clarity and great blur.

  14. The release of the OpenAPI Specification 3.0.3 brings patches and changes to improve the readability and accuracy of the specification. Changes include clarification on how Path Templating works, as well as clarifying the meaning of Semantic Versioning, changing hyperlinks from ‘http’ to ‘https,’ and other clarifications. Apache Samza 1.3.1 Apache Samza 1.3.1 includes many bug fixes such as that Checkpoint dir removal should only search in valid store dirs, Invoke onCheckpoint is only for registered SSPs, the checkpoint and changelog topic auto-creation has been fixed. Other fixes relate to the coordinator steam creation workflow, heartbeat failure that causes incorrect container shutdown, and the stream processor that should ensure the previous container is stopped during a rebalance. Racket 7.6 In the new release, DrRacket’s scrolling has been made more responsive, dark mode support has been improved for MacOS and Unix, Racket CS is ready for production use, and the Web Server provides fine-grained control over various aspects of handling client connections. “Using this new construct, we have decreased the web server’s default level of trust in client connections and made it detect additional, maliciously constructed requests,” Racket wrote in a post. In addition, The Macro Stepper has a new macro hiding algorithm that tracks term identity through syntax protection. An update on DigitalOcean DigitalOcean closed $300 million bank debt financing, with a consortium of blue-chip commercial lenders. “When DigitalOcean was first founded, we focused on creating an offering specifically tailored to the needs of an underserved segment of the market – the developer,” DigitalOcean wrote in a blog post. “Over time, as our offerings have expanded, we have broadened our focus to include entrepreneurs and small and mid-sized businesses (SMB), who, like developers, need simple solutions to help them get lift-off on their ideas.” SentinelOne raises $200 million for its cloud-native endpoint protection platform SentinelOne announced that it has raised $200 million in Series E funding, elevating the company’s valuation to $1.1 billion. “The cybersecurity demands of today’s enterprises have evolved, and we’ve taken endpoint protection far beyond what it once was. Instead of solely protecting laptops, desktops, and servers with EPP and EDR capabilities, we protect the entire network edge with flexible, autonomous technology — from containerized workloads in the cloud and data center to IoT devices,” said Tomer Weingarten, CEO and co-founder of SentinelOne.
  15. The Intel 10th Gen Core i9-10900 ES desktop CPU with 10 cores and 20 threads has been acquired and benchmarked by XFastest. The same chip was pictured recently by the tech outlet, promising us benchmarks in the coming weeks and now we get to look at what 10 cores and 20 threads from Intel have to offer us compared to the competition. Intel Core i9-10900 ES 10 Core & 20 Thread Comet Lake-S Desktop CPU Benchmarked Starting with the specifications, the Intel Core i9-10900 would reportedly feature 10 cores and 20 threads. It comes with a base clock of 2.8 GHz and a boost clock of up to 5.0 GHz with Turbo Boost, 5.1 GHz with Turbo Boost Max and 5.2 GHz with Thermal Velocity Boost. This chip features 20 MB of cache and has a TDP of 65W (PL1) at base frequency but the PL2 frequency would be a lot higher since this is a 10 core chip we are talking about. The chip that XFastest benchmark is an engineering sample and comes with a lower base clock of 2.50 GHz as mentioned on the IHS. The ES chip also ran at much lower boost frequencies of 3.2 GHz boost across all 10 cores and 20 threads and 4.4 GHz boost in single-core workloads. It looks to be a very early sample and as such, the performance of this chip should not be compared to the final product which launches in a few months. Intel Core i9-10900 10 Core ES Desktop CPU Benchmarks Coming to the benchmarks, the chip scored 1670 points in multi-thread and 182 points in the single-thread Cinebench R15 benchmark. In Cinebench R20, the same CPU scored 3714 points within the multi-thread and 441 points in the single-thread tests. Its single-core performance in the CPU-z benchmark was rated at 507.8 points while the multi-thread performance is rated at 5343 points. The chip managed to reach temperatures of up to 68C which is a bit hot for a chip running at these frequencies and one can only imagine what the temperatures would be like with the final clock speeds. Overall, these results are nothing special and put the Core i9-10900 just on par with a Core i9-9900 given its lower clock speeds at this point. The final variant would likely surpass Core i9-9900K when it comes to single and multi-thread performance but it would be a hard decision to go with an Intel-based desktop setup this time around considering the list of features and impressive performance & value that AMD's Ryzen 3000 series have to offer.
  16. The head of the World Health Organization (WHO) has expressed concern at the number of coronavirus cases with no clear link to China or other confirmed cases. Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus's comments follow Iran's announcement of two more deaths, bringing the total there to four. The window of opportunity to contain the virus was "narrowing", he said. Iranian health officials said the virus may already be in "all Iran's cities". Outside China 1,152 cases of the virus have been confirmed in 26 countries and there have been eight deaths. They include two in South Korea, which has the biggest cluster of confirmed cases apart from China and a cruise ship quarantined in Japan. China has reported 75,567 cases including 2,239 deaths. The new virus, which originated last year in Hubei province in China, causes a respiratory disease called Covid-19. What did the WHO chief say? Dr Tedros said the number of coronavirus cases outside China was "relatively small" but the pattern of infection was worrying. "We are concerned about the number of cases with no clear epidemiological link, such as travel history to or contact with a confirmed case," he said. The new deaths and infections in Iran were "very concerning", he said. But he insisted that the measures China and other countries had put in place meant there was still a "fighting chance" of stopping further spread and called on countries to put more resources into preparing for possible outbreaks. What about the Iran cases? In Iran the outbreak is centred on the holy city of Qom, south of the capital Tehran, which is a po[CENSORED]r destination for Shia Muslims in the region. Iran reported two more deaths in Qom on Friday, adding to the two deaths it reported on Thursday. A total of 18 cases have been confirmed in the country. Lebanon has reported its first confirmed case - a 45-year-old woman who was detected as she arrived in Beirut from Qom. The UAE, Israel and Egypt have also reported cases. Meanwhile Canadian officials said one of the nine cases there was a woman who had recently returned from Iran. WHO officials said both Iran and Lebanon had the basic capacity to detect the virus and the WHO was contacting them to offer further assistance. But Dr Tedros said the organisation was concerned about the virus's possible spread in countries with weaker health systems. What is the latest in South Korea? Prime Minister Chung Sye-kyun said it was now an emergency as 100 new cases and the country's second death were confirmed. The country now has 204 cases. The southern cities of Daegu and Cheongdo have been declared "special care zones". The streets of Daegu are now largely abandoned.
  17. The world of celebrities is a vast one, but when it comes to the various ranking of celebrities, the British Royal family is right there at the top. However, how much does the world really know about these individuals? There is a lot of information out there, but much of it is out there because they want it to be, while much of the really personal information is kept under regal wraps. For example, did you know that Princes William and Harry actually have a hidden step-sister? Most of the world had no idea, and there is a reason she has been kept out of the spotlight until now. The story of the current royal generation started in 1981, when Prince Charles married Lady Diana Spencer. Their wedding was one of the most extravagant, emotional, and beloved by the public who thought it was nothing short of a fairy tale wedding and relationship. Sadly, there was a problem brewing right below the surface of this union.
  18. BMW introdujo la X3 xDrive30e 2020, la variante híbrida enchufable de su conocida SUV, misma que llega a reforzar la oferta de vehículos amigables con el medio ambiente. Diferenciarla del resto de sus hermanas es realmente difícil, ya que a primera vista luce como una X3 normal. De hecho, probablemente, la única diferencia real viene con la adopción de un puesto de carga ubicado en la salpicadera del vehículo. En equipamiento, no hay mayor diferencia con una X3 xDrive30i, versión en la cual se basa. Pero en el apartado mecánico es donde es un vehículo completamente diferente. Comencemos con la potencia que se genera gracias a un motor de gasolina de 4 cilindros TwinPower Turbo y un motor eléctrico integrado en la transmisión Steptronic de 8 velocidades que permite una aceleración de cero a 100 km/h en 6.1 segundos, alcanzando una velocidad máxima de 210 km/h. El sistema combinado genera 292 hp y 310 libras-pie de torque. Cuenta con el sistema BMW xDrive que distribuye el par motor entre las ruedas delanteras y traseras según sea necesario, incluso si se conduce únicamente con energía eléctrica. La conducción puramente eléctrica alcanza velocidades de hasta 135 km/h, durante un rango de hasta 46 km (NEDC). El motor de combustión únicamente se enciende a velocidades más altas o cuando se requiere cargar o mantener la carga de la batería. Este modelo puede ser utilizado para una gran cantidad de viajes diarios sin emitir algún tipo de contaminante. Por cierto, la batería de iones de litio de 12.0 kWh se coloca de manera discreta debajo del asiento trasero para el ahorro de espacio, mientras que el tanque de combustible lo podemos encontrar en el eje trasero de la unidad. La batería se puede cargar en tomas domésticas convencionales utilizando el cable de carga del equipo de serie. De esta manera, la batería se puede cargar completamente en menos de seis horas.

  20. Hundreds of passengers who tested negative for the new coronavirus have begun leaving a quarantined cruise ship in Japan amid heavy criticism over the country's handling of the outbreak. One Japanese health expert who visited the Diamond Princess at the port in Yokohama said the situation on board was "completely chaotic". US officials said moves to contain the virus "may not have been sufficient". Passengers have described the difficult quarantine situation on the vessel. At least 621 passengers and crew on the Diamond Princess have so far been infected by the Covid-19 virus - the biggest cluster outside mainland China. The ship was carrying 3,700 people in total. Hundreds of American passengers were removed and placed in quarantine on Sunday. Britons on the vessel have been told by the UK Foreign Office to stay onboard but register for an evacuation flight expected later this week. A British couple on the ship - who had been giving regular updates to journalists via social media - confirmed on Wednesday they had tested positive for the virus. The US, Canada, Australia and the UK will place all those released from the ship in another 14 days' quarantine when they return home.
