World Cup Qualification: Panama President Declares National Holiday

Panama president Juan Carlos Varela declared a national holiday in celebration at the central American country's first ever qualification for the World Cup. "It's a historic day for the country. Tomorrow (Thursday) will be a national holiday for public and private sector workers," Varela said on Twitter on Wednesday.

Amazon introduced a new $250 waterproof Kindle (AMZN)

On Wednesday, Amazon introduced a new version of its high-end Kindle Oasis tablet. While the new tablet looks a lot like its predecessor, it has one important new feature: it's waterproof. The new Oasis is IPX8 rated, which means you should be able to submerge it in 6.5 feet of water for up to 60 minutes. The device also has a 7-inch display, 8 GB of starting storage, audio book service Audible built in, and up to six weeks of battery life on a single charge.

The new Oasis starts at $250 for the 8 GB device, or $280 for the 32 GB device. While it's still Amazon's most expensive Kindle, that's a pretty sizeable price cut from the original Oasis, which cost $360. play The new leather cases come in

Bill Gates says his mentor was a giant named Bill

If there's anyone billionaire Bill Gates looks up to, it's Dr. Bill Foege. Gates has little choice in the matter, as he noted in a recent Gates Notes blog post. Foege is 6 feet 7 inches tall. He towers over pretty much anyone in his vicinity. But Gates also looks up to Foege because he considers the doctor one of his greatest mentors. Foege helped Gates and his wife Melinda learn the ropes of the public health world when they were starting the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation in 1999. "His intelligence, leadership, and humility over the last six decades have proven invaluable in the fight against disease and poverty," Gates wrote. "In the field of global health, he is a giant." In the 1970s, as director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Foege helped lead the effort to eradicate smallpox. He crafted a system known as "surveillance and containment," which involves vaccinating only the people who've been in contact with

How to Prevent MonkeyPox

Monkey pox virus occurs when a person comes into contact with the virus from an animal, human, or materials contaminated with the virus. The virus enters the body through broken skin (even if not visible), respiratory tract or the mucous membranes (eyes, nose, or mouth). Animal-to-human transmission may occur by bite or scratch, bush meat preparation, direct contact with body fluids or lesion material, or indirect contact with lesion material, such as through contaminated bedding. Human-to-human transmission is thought to occur primarily through large respiratory droplets. Respiratory droplets generally cannot travel more than a few feet. So prolonged face-to-face contact is required. Other human-to-human methods of transmission include direct contact with body fluids or lesion material, and indirect contact with lesion material, such as through contaminated clothing or linens Prevention There are measures that can be taken to prevent infection with monkey pox virus:

independent Catalonia would automatically be out of the EU -France's Minister

Catalan independence would not enjoy international recognition, France’s minister for European affairs said Monday as the Spanish region’s leader threatens to announce a split. Pressure has mounted on Catalan president Carles Puigdemont to back down after hundreds of thousands of protesters last week rallied to defend national unity. “If there were a declaration of independence it would be unilateral and it wouldn’t be recognised,” France’s minister for European affairs, Nathalie Loiseau said on CNews digital news channel. “This crisis needs to be resolved through dialogue at all levels of Spanish politics,” she urged. The minister also reiterated Brussels’ warning that an independent Catalonia would “automatically” be out of the EU and have to reapply to join. “We are allies and partners with Spain, and Spain is a major democracy, so we are not going to meddle in the internal affairs of Spain.” She said Catalonia, which borders France, already has “considerable autono
