Bara vice president Elena Fort assumes the position of deputy
2024-03-01 12:29:32
Maria Elena Fort has assumed her position as deputy of Junts per Catalunya this Friday in Parliament. The institutional vice president of Barça will make her political task compatible with that which she performs in the Barça entity, basically focused in Espai Barça.
Fort was already a deputy between 2019 and 2021, until the end of that legislature, and was part of the next candidacy (number 26 for Barcelona). Assigned to the electoral lists of Junts, she served as parliamentary coordinator until November 2022 and was also an advisor to the parliamentary group. The resignation of Jaume Alonso-Cuevillas has motivated the lawyer’s access to the seat as she is next on the list.

The Barça leader raised the case with the Barça board, her political group and various Government officials before accepting and did not encounter any reluctance. In fact, there is no problem of incompatibility between the assumption of the political function and her work at Barça, a private entity where she exercises a representative position and is not remunerated. This simultaneity will occur during 2024,
Scientists identify unique mechanism responsible for whale song
A study published Wednesday describes for the first time the unique system, located in the larynx, by which whales sing. A mechanism that would allow them to emit two different sounds at the same time.
A study published Wednesday February 21 provides a breakthrough on the fascinating vocalization of whales. The anatomical mechanism of this song, which has intrigued scientists for a long time, had never been identified.
According to the revelations of the study published in Nature and led by Coen Elemans, from the biology department of the University of Southern Denmark in Odense, mysticetes, also called true whales, sing thanks to a unique system in their larynx, functioning on a principle similar to that of terrestrial mammals such as human beings.
Scientists assumed that mysticetes – baleen cetaceans like blue whales or rorquals – used their larynx to produce vocalizations. But the mechanism of their anatomy allowing these songs was not really understood, recalls the Nature article.

High-Definition Remake of Mario vs. Donkey Kong on Nintendo Switch Offers Enhanced Gameplay and Co-Op Mode
“Mario vs. Donkey Kong”, previously released on the GBA mobile phone, has been remade in high definition on the Nintendo Switch console and in addition to the more detailed graphics, the content has also been improved. The two protagonists of the game Mario and Donkey Kong meet again and can also work together to pass the level.
The fatal clash that took place on the Game Boy Advance is revived on Nintendo Switch. In addition to high-definition graphics, two-player cooperative mode is also added. As long as you share the Joy-Con, two people can play cooperatively. The player plays as Mario who runs a toy company. Because Mini Mario dolls are so popular, Donkey Kong can’t buy them, he uses stolen ones instead. Mario wants to retrieve the toys.
The level’s objective requires Mario to retrieve the Mini Mario toys and extra gift boxes. Each map ends with a boss battle featuring Donkey Kong. Mario must overcome several obstacles to obtain the key to open the door and reach the place where Mini Mario is located. In the process, Mario not only has to run and jump, but can also use more advanced moves, such as handstands,
Beware of fake Helldivers 2 games on Steam
#Beware #fake #Helldivers #games #Steam
The makers of Helldivers 2 warn about fake Helldivers 2 games on Steam. Two games have recently surfaced there that look like the real Helldivers 2 game, but are not. The two scams have now been taken offline by Valve, but vigilance remains necessary because it cannot be ruled out that new ones will emerge.
The name and screenshots as well as publisher and developer seem to fit perfectly into the official picture of these scams, but it is fraud. Only the low number of reviews and the release date often reveal that something is wrong.
Research shows that the games were previously launched on Steam under a different name, and that various information was subsequently changed to make the store pages look like those of the real Helldivers 2.
So the message is to pay close attention, but in the meantime questions are being asked about Valve’s precautions to prevent such scams.

Denis Villeneuve: From “Prisoners” to “Dune: Part Two” – A Filmmaker’s Journey
Denis Villeneuve has established himself as one of the most talented and successful filmmakers of our time. Since his U.S. debut in 2013, he has created a remarkable body of work that includes groundbreaking thrillers and thought-provoking sci-fi films. With over $1.1 billion in worldwide box office and three Oscar nominations, Villeneuve’s films have captivated audiences and critics alike.
However, Villeneuve’s path to success was not without its challenges. After making his mark in the Canadian film industry with a series of acclaimed films, he took a nine-year break to refine his cinematic identity. It wasn’t until 2010’s Oscar-nominated “Incendies” that Villeneuve felt he had truly discovered his signature style.
Villeneuve’s collaborations with renowned cinematographer Roger Deakins have been particularly notable. Deakins, who won his first Oscar for Villeneuve’s “Blade Runner 2049,” praises the director’s ability to allow scenes to play out naturally and his rare honesty in his work.
Actors who have worked with Villeneuve also speak highly of his talent and demeanor on set. Jake Gyllenhaal, who first collaborated with Villeneuve on “Enemy,” recalls the director’s dedication to bringing his vision to life and his humility as a filmmaker.

Greentech Science: KIT wants to revolutionize plant breeding with genetic scissors

Climate change is also leaving its mark on agriculture. With the help of genetic scissors such as CRISPR/Cas, plants can be modified so that they are, for example, less susceptible to disease or more resistant to drought and therefore more sustainable.

“The molecular scissors allow us to change the genetic information of crop plants. We use this change to create genetic resistance, for example against fungi.
If a plant is genetically resistant, the fungus can no longer attack the plant, so we no longer need a pesticide in the field,” says Professor Holger Puchta from the Joseph Gottlieb Kölreuter Institute for Plant Sciences at KIT.

Bitcoin Price Soars in February 2024: A Month to Remember
2024-03-01 13:14:07
Traders who followed Bitcoin BTC Price in February 2024 witnessed an extraordinary month. The largest cryptocurrency rose to almost a record high, and such a monthly increase has not been seen since December 2020. After such a monthly rise, a higher degree of volatility is inevitable due to the lack of liquidity, but at the same time, Bitcoin is “safe” up to $59,000.
An incredible monthly candle
Another month has come to an end, and CoinGlass published the monthly performance of Bitcoin on the first of March. Although the price of digital gold has not yet exceeded its previous peak of $69,000, it crossed $60,000 in the last days of the month and finally set a monthly peak of $64,000. Glassnode’s lead analyst, Checkmate, reported on X (formerly: Twitter) that Bitcoin had a 43.55% increase in February, which had not been seen in more than 3 years. Thanks to the unreal rise, Bitcoin’s market capitalization rose by $390 billion, and the nearly $20,000 candle has never been seen before.
Thanks to this, Bitcoin – and the entire cryptocurrency market – can boast a 7-month green streak, as the last time Bitcoin owners posted a loss from the beginning to the end of the month was in August 2023.

Local authorities can manage the state and enforce laws with affiliated departments, branches, branches, district and commune levels. This is a fundamental new point of using digital platforms, ensuring unity, synchronization, throughout from central to local levels.
