Ubisoft has announced that Assassin’s Creed Mirage is now Gold, meaning that it is fully developed and 100% ready. Not only that, but it was also announced that the game’s release date will be changed and presented for a full week, to be released on October 5 of this year instead of October 12. The Assassin’s Creed Twitter account also stated that the development team can’t wait for everyone to explore 19th century Baghdad with Bassem. Which, by the way, will be performed by the famous actor Iyad Nassar in the Arabic version. The new date for the game seems appropriate, as the month of October, especially the second half of it, will be full of powerful games such as Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, Alan Wake 2, Metal Gear Solid Master Collection, and Super Mario Wonder. The game will take approximately 25 hours to complete, and the city of Baghdad will be close to the size of Paris in the Assassin’s Creed Unity game. The game will also return to the action-adventure classification for the first time since Assassin’s Creed Syndicate instead of the RPG classification that was present in the last three parts. According to the developers of the game, it will be the closest thing to the first part of the series, which was released in 2007, which took place in the cities of Jerusalem, Acre and Damascus during the Crusades. It is worth noting that Assassin’s Creed Mirage will be released on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox Series and Xbox One at a price of $50.

The rise and fall of the Egyptian pound imposes its dominance against three Arab currencies today, and a strong return of the pound
2023-08-14 16:20:04
Currencies, with all their complexities and effects, play a vital role in every nation’s economy. We may notice that there are sharp changes in the prices of Arab currencies from time to time, especially in light of the changing economic conditions facing the region. For today, we witnessed remarkable fluctuations in some Arab currencies compared to the Egyptian pound.
Recent changes in Arab currencies
Kuwaiti dinar: Perhaps it is one of the strongest Arab currencies, but in recent times it has witnessed some fluctuations. As its price decreased today to 99.35 pounds for purchase and 100.33 pounds for sale. Saudi riyal: It is known for its relative stability, and it remained stable at 8.20 pounds for buying and 8.23 pounds for selling. Emirati dirham: Minor fluctuations, reaching 8.39 pounds for buying and 8.40 pounds for selling. Bahraini dinar: This time, it witnessed a slight increase, reaching 79.46 pounds for buying and 81.85 pounds for selling. Qatari riyal: It settled at 7.80 pounds for buying, with a big difference when selling, as it reached 8.48 pounds. Jordanian Dinar: Here, we witnessed a significant decline, reaching 42.77 pounds for buying and 43.57 pounds for selling.

Exposure to MIT: ANSES recommends better protection and information for consumers and workers | handles
2016-02-16 16:43:31
Methylisothiazolinone or MIT is mainly used for its preservative properties, especially in paints and coatings, detergents, industrial processes, cosmetics, etc. A recent study detected the presence of MIT in 93% of paints tested. MIT can also be used for its fungicidal, bactericidal and disinfectant properties in a large number of uses: varnishes, glues, detergents, textiles, etc.
For several years, in France as in Europe, many publications have highlighted an alarming increase in the number of cases of skin allergies to this substance.
At the toxicological level, MIT is recognized as a skin sensitizing substance, on the basis of animal and human experimental data. Thus, following exposure to a high concentration of MIT, via especially cosmetics, an allergic skin reaction may occur upon further exposure, even to low concentrations.
Furthermore, the presence of MIT in many products for professional use at high concentrations is the cause of severe contact dermatitis in many professional categories.
In this context, ANSES issued an internal request to draw up an inventory of the uses of MIT and to describe the associated risks of skin and respiratory sensitization. The objective was to identify the categories of products with the highest exposure in order to propose possible recommendations aimed at limiting the exposure of people already or not already sensitized.
The Agency’s recommendations
In January 2015, a harmonized classification dossier was submitted at European level by Slovenia within the framework of the “CLP” regulation on the classification, labeling and packaging of substances. This dossier proposes to classify MIT as a category 1 skin sensitizer with a specific concentration limit of 0.06% (600 ppm). During the public consultation phase of this proposal, France indicated that it considered this limit of 600 ppm much too high in view of the available data and proposed a limit of 15 ppm. Other comments from European public institutions or Member States also go in the direction of proposing a more protective concentration limit. This classification proposal should be discussed with all the Member States shortly.
The Agency also considers it necessary to continue the discussions initiated at European level within the framework of the “cosmetics” regulation, in order to modify the concentrations of MIT as a preservative in cosmetic products.
The Agency recommends the establishment of systematic information for the general population and professionals, on the packaging of mixtures containing MIT, regardless of the level of concentration in the mixture. This information is already mandatory for cosmetic products and detergents. Systematic information from the lowest concentration applicable to the finished product put on the market will allow the eviction of the allergen for sensitized individuals.
Furthermore, as part of its work on the issue of pollutant emissions from construction materials, ANSES proposed a qualification procedure for emissions of volatile organic compounds in 2009. A limit concentration of interest (CLI) was was then determined for MIT. This French value has also been adopted by the European working group for the harmonization of protocols and CLIs. In view of recent data, the Agency recommends that MIT be taken into account in the labeling provided for construction products, in order to inform consumers and workers regarding the emission levels of volatile pollutants.
The Agency finally continues its work on the analysis of occupational dermatitis within the framework of the National Network for Vigilance and Prevention of Occupational Pathologies (RNV3P), which it coordinates. This work makes it possible to describe the prevalence of these skin disorders according to the nuisances, to identify the sectors or workstations at risk with a view to recommendations for the implementation of preventive measures and appropriate protection in the professional environment.

What happens if Javier Milei wins?: The seven reforms he promised in his government plan
2023-08-14 17:03:00
The presidential candidate Javier Mileywhich with almost all of the scrutinized tables It is the most voted at the national level, it presented the La Libertad Avanza plan days ago with seven points where it proposed from the privatization of public companies to the payment of public education and health services.
“The Argentine state is the main cause of the impoverishment of Argentines. Not only because of its elephantine size that makes it unpayable, but also because of the tangle of regulations that arise from each of the state offices that hinder the functioning of the economy,” He begins by saying the 34-page text where the economist who defines himself as an “anarcho-capitalist” gives indications of the policies he would implement if he reached the government.
What are the ministries that Milei would leave “out” if she became President
In those first few paragraphs, Milei details that of the current 18 ministries, she would only keep seven and add one. There he mentions Economy, Justice, Interior, Security, Defense, Foreign Relations, Infrastructure, while he would add Human Capital.
During this first item, which he called “State Reform”, the national deputy proposes eliminating all cabinet chiefs, appointing a “control” area in the ministries to control public spending and, in addition, not firing “any career employee of the state”, but rather “reallocate them where they are needed”.
economic reforms
The second point questions the bureaucracy and speaks of a model “that doesn’t work” and “will never work”, to first propose that it must have limited status, free trade, and respect for private property.
When disaggregated, Milei proposes a drastic reduction in public spending (15% of GDP spending), tax reduction (90% of current taxes); labor modernization (it proposes to imitate the “UOCRA model” with unemployment insurance, where it assures that it would generate 8 million jobs); commercial opening (allowing 8 million jobs and allowing Argentines to “buy products from anywhere in the world freely”); monetary reform (the main one is to eliminate the Central Bank); energetic reform; investment promotion and agricultural reform.
In no section, however, is there reference to a dollarization of the economy.
Lali Esposito warned of the “danger” of the result of the PASO 2023 and her followers answered her
judicial reform
According to the libertarian program, justice no longer functions as a defender of individuals, bell for “pursuing opponents or favoring friends”. That is why he proposes to “depoliticize” it.
Among his most outstanding points, he talks regarding naming the missing Supreme Court judge, electing a Minister of Justice “respected in the Judiciary” and also an Attorney General of the Nation, a position currently held by Eduardo Casal on a provisional basis for the resignation of Alejandra Gils Carbó on October 30, 2017.
He also talks regarding reforming the Judicial Council, speeding up judicial processes and transferring justice that he names as “national” to the city of Buenos Aires.
Human capital
At this point, the idea of reforming the ministries of Health, Social Development, Labor and Education was developed, replacing them with that of Human Capital.
There it is clarified that the Argentines who receive social assistance are “the victims of the system”, clarifying that they will not eliminate social assistance (including social plans) until economic activity stabilizes.
On the other hand, expresses that to achieve better health and education systems, both must be remunerated. In turn, it focuses on lowering the numbers of child poverty with nutrition plans and incentives for students to complete their studies.
Javier Milei was the candidate with the most votes in the PASO of Córdoba, acknowledged Juan Schiaretti

security reforms
“The function of the security forces, and even the state, is to suppress crime. There should be no half measures here,” the libertarian government plan begins by saying in that item.
Then he proposes to support the security forces politically, not consider the offender as a “victim of the system” and adopt the doctrine of “which he makes pay“. This last point is disaggregated by proposing reforms in the law on internal security, national defense, intelligence, the penitentiary service, and ends by saying that the fight once morest drug trafficking should be prioritized, strengthen the internal security council, stop “the land occupation” in the country and ensure free transit.
Libertarian enthusiasm: Javier Milei’s followers fill the Hotel Libertador following the PASO 2023 elections
defense policy
In section number three, the government plan of La Libertad Avanza talks regarding considering the members of the Armed Forces “heroes” and “thanking them for their services” on a daily basis.
Specifically, they state that a technological change must be carried out, a better investment in equipment, talks regarding “recovering” the prestige of the Armed Forces at a national and international level and reformulating the intelligence system.
External relationships
In this item two principles are proposed: the defense “of all the liberal democracies of the world” and “the promotion of free trade” between nations. And it promotes: the reorganization of the Foreign Ministry, the “alignment of foreign relations with all the democratic causes of the world”, the reduction of personnel in that area, discouraging the use of embassies and reducing spending on personnel.

Infrastructure
Finally, two schemes are proposed in this last point. The first of these is to completely eliminate state public works in replacement of a private investment model.
Second, it refers to promoting from the state a development program “for urbanization trusts, neighborhood infrastructure and construction at cost.” He also talks regarding the problem of the housing deficit and explains that the trust system would be the way to solve it. To promote it, it would stimulate private credit for families from the Mortgage Bank.
“We can leave. We can grow. We can return to the path of progress. But for this we need your vote on Sunday 8/13,” the government program closed in its last paragraph.
