[1/5] An aerial view shows flooding following heavy rains in Prato, Tuscany, Italy November 3, 2023, in this screen grab taken from a handout video. However, Giani said the death toll had risen to five after rain swept away cars and forced people to evacuate the lower floors of buildings. The government was expected to declare a state of emergency which would allow the rapid release of help for Tuscany. The governor of Tuscany said there were challenging issues around two large rivers in the area, the Bisenzio, north of Florence, and the Ombrone, in the southern part of the region. Another person was missing in the northeastern Veneto region, the local governor was quoted as saying by Sky TG24.

Del Pistoia had been travelling a lot between France and the US for work and began feeling more fatigued than usual. However, to decrease the likelihood of the cancer returning, Del Pistoia underwent a bone marrow transplant. Then, after being able to stand up, I was able to walk.”Recovery was slow but, bit by bit, Del Pistoia started to rebuild his life. Exciting futureNow, with a IRONMAN World Championship race in the bag, Del Pistoia is on the hunt for more challenges. Away from sport, Del Pistoia has recently qualified as a seaplane pilot and wants to use his platform to raise awareness and improve accessibility for those living with disabilities.

The logo of Monte dei Paschi di Siena bank is seen in a bank entrance in Rome, Italy, August 16, 2018. REUTERS/Max Rossi/File PhotoFLORENCE, Italy, Oct 11 (Reuters) - Monte dei Paschi di Siena (BMPS.MI) is set to get around 30 million euros ($29 million) for its new share issue from local banking foundations, including the Tuscan bank's former top shareholder, a source with knowledge of the matter said. In some cases, including that of the Fondazione Monte dei Paschi di Siena, they have seen their fortunes wiped out by the demise of the banks they owned. A fourth banking foundation, Cassa di Risparmio di Pistoia e Pescia (CariPistoia), has not yet taken a decision on a possible 3 million euro contribution, the source added. The chairman of CariPistoia had told Reuters the foundation was not interested in investing in Monte dei Paschi.
FLORENCE, Italy, Sept 28 (Reuters) - Italy's Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio di Pistoia e Pescia (Caript) has no plans to invest in an upcoming new share sale at state-owned bank Monte dei Paschi di Siena (BMPS.MI), the chairman of the not-for-profit banking foundation told Reuters. "As far as Caript is concerned, an investment in Monte dei Paschi is not on the agenda," Chairman Lorenzo Zogheri told Reuters. Italian daily Il Sole 24 Ore reported on Wednesday Italy's Treasury had sounded out banking foundations, long-standing investors in the country's lenders, as Monte dei Paschi struggles to secure support from private investors amid tough markets. The report said Tuscan foundations such as Caript were top of the list.

JPMorgan is preparing for a quantum futureDavid Castillo, Andrew J. Lang, and Marco Pistoia. The difference could allow users of the tech to process algorithms and execute calculations at blistering speeds. That's because quantum computing uses quantum mechanics, a kind of physics that leverages quantum bits, or qubits, instead of ones and zeros used by classic computers. But JPMorgan researchers say there are signs the industry is getting close to the point where quantum computers can process real-world problems faster than classic computers, often referred to as quantum advantage. The platform, run by Castillo, is also hardware-agnostic, meaning it can interface with quantum computers from different providers without needing to rewrite the application code.
"In a five- to 10-year timeframe, quantum computing will break encryption as we know it." Since its conceptual birth in the early 1980s, quantum computing has held promise for systems that could exponentially outperform today's computers. Rather than leaning on the zeroes and ones of classical computers, quantum computers emerged from quantum physics, which is the study of the fundamental building blocks of matter and energy. Those strange properties account for the technology's potentially explosive abilities; each additional qubit doubles a quantum computer's power. They are named D-Wave Systems , Rigetti Computing, IonQ , and Quantum Computing.
As an emerging alternative to the traditional computer, JPMorgan execs believe quantum computing could upend how finance firms perform computations. Unlike classical computers, which can store only a one or a zero, quantum computers use quantum bits, or qubits. Qubits can store multiple values at the same time, which theoretically gives the quantum computers big speed advantages. Meanwhile, Fidelity has been exploring the potential of quantum computing in wealth management. Wells Fargo, too, has invested in quantum computing to process complex data structures used for fraud detection.
