La más reciente obra publicada del autor Rubert Jose Figueredo Michelangelli, Volver a empezar, un relato personal lleno de valor, determinación y superación que lo ha llevado a salir adelante siendo ejemplo para muchos

BROOKLYN, N.Y., 15 de febrero de 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — El reciente lanzamiento del libro Volver a empezar, escrito por el autor Rubert Jose Figueredo Michelangelli, y publicado por la editorial Page Publishing, nos muestra la historia personal del autor narrada en primera persona, donde sobresalen las luchas y pruebas que tuvo que superar a lo largo de toda su vida para alcanzar la felicidad plena y convertirse en una persona ejemplar en la sociedad.

BROOKLYN, N.Y., 15 de febrero de 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — El reciente lanzamiento del libro Volver a empezar, escrito por el autor Rubert Jose Figueredo Michelangelli, y publicado por la editorial Page Publishing, nos muestra la historia personal del autor narrada en primera persona, donde sobresalen las luchas y pruebas que tuvo que superar a lo largo de toda su vida para alcanzar la felicidad plena y convertirse en una persona ejemplar en la sociedad.

Volver a empezar, es una obra escrita por la mano del autor Rubert Jose Figueredo Michelangelli, nacido en San Fernando de Apure, Venezuela, donde le tocó migrar más de una vez en su país. Desde muy pequeño se le presentaron varios modelos de vida en su desarrollo; en su infancia y adolescencia vio cómo se formaron sus padres en medio de tantas necesidades y por otra parte estaba nadando en las aguas del confort y calidad de vida que con muchos sacrificios le habían suministrado sus mentores. Dichos panoramas dieron a Rubert desde muy temprana edad un enfoque amplio de los diferentes estilos de vida que se desarrollan en la sociedad. Fue formado bajo la orden del respeto al prójimo y el servicio social, participando activamente en una fundación constituida por su madre llamada «Sadi Botello«, la cual se dedica a ayudar a los niños con Cáncer de bajos recursos económicos y otra fundación también filantrópica sin fines de lucro creada por su padre dedicada a la ayuda de las comunidades indígenas de los llanos venezolanos. Actualmente Rubert se encuentra residenciado en los EE. UU. y le ha tocado cambiar su profesión de forma temporal para desempeñar el oficio de repartidor de comida y entrenador deportivo entre otras labores. Parte de ese cambio brusco es la esencia que conlleva a este autor a escribir la presente obra.

El autor de esta maravillosa obra literaria, Rubert Jose Figueredo Michelangelli, nos habla un poco acerca de la misma: «¿Cuántas veces nos ha tocado iniciar nuevamente el recorrido hacia la obtención de una meta porque las cosas no salieron como las planificamos? Nuestra vida está llena de planes, pero siempre debemos tener presente que la ruta es muy cambiante, y ese revés inesperado del timón en la trayectoria, reingeniería de proyectos personales y en general, tratar de levantarnos ante una caída, en muchas ocasiones nos puede desgastar y debilitar como persona, porque conlleva enfrentarnos a la resistencia a lo desconocido, desprendernos de los apegos e incluso ganarle la batalla al estrés o depresión. La presente obra es la vivencia de un migrante venezolano que le toca dejar a sus seres queridos, bienes, y apartarse temporalmente del ejercicio de su profesión como ingeniero-empresario, para dedicarse a diversos oficios como limpiador, ayudante de cocina, repartidor de comida y entrenador deportivo en un país del primer mundo como lo es los EE. UU. La idea no es tratar de describir un manual de cómo realizar una migración exitosa, sino que a través de las historias narradas evidencies las estrategias que utilizó el autor para enfrentar los obstáculos que se le presentaron en un terreno de juego con reglas diferentes. Así que, si sufriste la ruptura de una relación amorosa, ¡este libro es para ti!, si estás afligido por haber perdido tu empleo ¡este libro es para ti!, si la tristeza te invade el alma por haber reprobado una materia en tu universidad ¡este libro es para ti! Cualquier situación que te acongoje por no haber obtenido los resultados esperados conserva la esencia de lo que aquí se expone. Estamos juntos en esto y rendirse no es una opción, toma estas anécdotas como ejemplos de que aun cuando nos cantaron el tercer strike siempre tendremos un próximo turno al bate, si nos dieron un knock out la vida nos dará revancha, en fin, siempre habrá la oportunidad de escribir con optimismo el comienzo de un nuevo capítulo que llevará como título: Volver a empezar».

Publicada por la editorial Page Publishing, la obra del autor Rubert Jose Figueredo Michelangelli, Volver a empezar, nos muestra la historia personal del autor narrada en primera persona, donde sobresalen las luchas y pruebas que tuvo que superar a lo largo de toda su vida para alcanzar la felicidad plena y convertirse en una persona ejemplar en la sociedad.

Para las personas que gustan de la lectura de historias realizadas con una narración real, donde las experiencias personales dejan un mensaje de inspiración para la superación personal; pueden hacerlo a través de la lectura de este libro comprando Volver a empezar en las tiendas en línea de Apple iTunes, Amazon.com, Google Play o Barnes and Noble.

bp joins the IBM Quantum Network to advance use of quantum computing in energy

LONDON, Feb. 15, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — IBM (NYSE: IBM) today announced bp has joined the IBM Quantum Network to advance the use of quantum computing in the energy industry.

<a…

LONDON, Feb. 15, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — IBM (NYSE: IBM) today announced bp has joined the IBM Quantum Network to advance the use of quantum computing in the energy industry.

By joining the IBM Quantum Network™ as an Industry Partner, bp will have access to IBM’s quantum expertise and software and cloud-based access to the most advanced quantum computers available via the cloud. This includes access to a premium 65-qubit quantum computer, the largest universal quantum system available to industry today, and an important milestone on the IBM Quantum roadmap to a 1,000-plus qubit system, targeted for the end of 2023.

bp will work with IBM to explore using quantum computing to solve business and engineering challenges and explore the potential applications for driving efficiencies and reducing carbon emissions. 

«bp’s ambition is to become a net zero company by 2050 or sooner and help the world get to net zero. Next-generation computing capabilities such as quantum computing will assist in solving the science and engineering challenges we will face, enabling us to reimagine energy and design new lower carbon products,» said Morag Watson, senior vice president, digital science and engineering for bp.

Quantum computing has the potential to be applied in areas such as: modelling the chemistry and build-up of various types of clay in hydrocarbon wells – a crucial factor in efficient hydrocarbon production; analyzing and managing the fluid dynamics of wind farms; optimizing autonomous robotic facility inspection; and helping create opportunities not yet imagined to deliver the clean energy the world wants and needs.

In 2020, bp announced its net zero ambition and its new strategy. By the end of this decade, it aims to have developed around 50 gigawatts of net renewable-generating capacity (a 20-fold increase), increased annual low carbon investment 10-fold to around $5 billion and cut its oil and gas production by 40%.

Joining the IBM Quantum Network will enhance bp’s ability to leverage quantum advances and applications as they emerge and then influence on how those breakthroughs can be applied to its industry and the energy transition.

«bp joins a rapidly growing number of clients working with IBM to explore quantum computing to help accelerate the discovery of solutions to some of today’s biggest challenges,» added Dario Gil, Senior Vice President and Director of IBM Research. «The energy industry is ripe with opportunities to see value from the use of quantum computing through the discovery of new materials designed to improve the generation, transfer, and storage of energy.»

bp joins more than 130 members of the IBM Quantum Network, a global community of Fortune 500 companies, start-ups, academic institutions and research labs working to advance quantum computing and explore practical applications. Together, members of the Network and IBM Quantum teams are researching and exploring how quantum computing will help a variety of industries and disciplines, including finance, energy, chemistry, materials science, optimization and machine learning, among many others.

BROOKLYN, N.Y., 15 de febrero de 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — El reciente lanzamiento del libro Volver a empezar, escrito por el autor Rubert Jose Figueredo Michelangelli, y publicado por la editorial Page Publishing, nos muestra la historia personal del autor narrada en primera persona, donde sobresalen las luchas y pruebas que tuvo que superar a lo largo de toda su vida para alcanzar la felicidad plena y convertirse en una persona ejemplar en la sociedad.

Volver a empezar, es una obra escrita por la mano del autor Rubert Jose Figueredo Michelangelli, nacido en San Fernando de Apure, Venezuela, donde le tocó migrar más de una vez en su país. Desde muy pequeño se le presentaron varios modelos de vida en su desarrollo; en su infancia y adolescencia vio cómo se formaron sus padres en medio de tantas necesidades y por otra parte estaba nadando en las aguas del confort y calidad de vida que con muchos sacrificios le habían suministrado sus mentores. Dichos panoramas dieron a Rubert desde muy temprana edad un enfoque amplio de los diferentes estilos de vida que se desarrollan en la sociedad. Fue formado bajo la orden del respeto al prójimo y el servicio social, participando activamente en una fundación constituida por su madre llamada «Sadi Botello«, la cual se dedica a ayudar a los niños con Cáncer de bajos recursos económicos y otra fundación también filantrópica sin fines de lucro creada por su padre dedicada a la ayuda de las comunidades indígenas de los llanos venezolanos. Actualmente Rubert se encuentra residenciado en los EE. UU. y le ha tocado cambiar su profesión de forma temporal para desempeñar el oficio de repartidor de comida y entrenador deportivo entre otras labores. Parte de ese cambio brusco es la esencia que conlleva a este autor a escribir la presente obra.

El autor de esta maravillosa obra literaria, Rubert Jose Figueredo Michelangelli, nos habla un poco acerca de la misma: «¿Cuántas veces nos ha tocado iniciar nuevamente el recorrido hacia la obtención de una meta porque las cosas no salieron como las planificamos? Nuestra vida está llena de planes, pero siempre debemos tener presente que la ruta es muy cambiante, y ese revés inesperado del timón en la trayectoria, reingeniería de proyectos personales y en general, tratar de levantarnos ante una caída, en muchas ocasiones nos puede desgastar y debilitar como persona, porque conlleva enfrentarnos a la resistencia a lo desconocido, desprendernos de los apegos e incluso ganarle la batalla al estrés o depresión. La presente obra es la vivencia de un migrante venezolano que le toca dejar a sus seres queridos, bienes, y apartarse temporalmente del ejercicio de su profesión como ingeniero-empresario, para dedicarse a diversos oficios como limpiador, ayudante de cocina, repartidor de comida y entrenador deportivo en un país del primer mundo como lo es los EE. UU. La idea no es tratar de describir un manual de cómo realizar una migración exitosa, sino que a través de las historias narradas evidencies las estrategias que utilizó el autor para enfrentar los obstáculos que se le presentaron en un terreno de juego con reglas diferentes. Así que, si sufriste la ruptura de una relación amorosa, ¡este libro es para ti!, si estás afligido por haber perdido tu empleo ¡este libro es para ti!, si la tristeza te invade el alma por haber reprobado una materia en tu universidad ¡este libro es para ti! Cualquier situación que te acongoje por no haber obtenido los resultados esperados conserva la esencia de lo que aquí se expone. Estamos juntos en esto y rendirse no es una opción, toma estas anécdotas como ejemplos de que aun cuando nos cantaron el tercer strike siempre tendremos un próximo turno al bate, si nos dieron un knock out la vida nos dará revancha, en fin, siempre habrá la oportunidad de escribir con optimismo el comienzo de un nuevo capítulo que llevará como título: Volver a empezar».

Publicada por la editorial Page Publishing, la obra del autor Rubert Jose Figueredo Michelangelli, Volver a empezar, nos muestra la historia personal del autor narrada en primera persona, donde sobresalen las luchas y pruebas que tuvo que superar a lo largo de toda su vida para alcanzar la felicidad plena y convertirse en una persona ejemplar en la sociedad.
