US President Donald Trump has nominated US Treasury’s David Malpass as his pick for the next world bank president on Wednesday (local time). Maplass is known to a Trump legalistic and senior economic adviser to the US President, during his 2016 election campaign.

The 62 year old has criticized the world bank and other institutions such as the IMF in the past. Malpass would be a “strong advocate for accountability” at the World Bank, said Donald Trump.

“The Wall Street Journal just said today in an editorial that David Malpass is an excellent choice, which is America is the largest contributor to the World Bank, giving it over USD 1 billion every year,” ,Trump said.

If elected as the President of the World Bank, Malpass would replace South Korea’s Jim Yong Kim in April this year. Jim Yong Kim resigned unexpectedly last month from his post.

The world wide social networking service, Facebook turned 15 yesterday! The Facebook, shortly called ‘FB’ was launched on February 4th 2004 by Mark Zuckerberg, who were just 19 then, with his college roommate and fellow Harvard University student Eduardo Saverin.

The predecessor of Facebook, FaceMash was opened in 2003. Facebook was expanded to twenty-one universities in the United Kingdom and others around the world, on October 1, 2005. Facebook launched a high school version in September 2005, and Zuckerberg called the next logical step. Later, they expanded membership eligibility to employees of several companies, including Apple Inc. and Microsoft.

On the 15th birthday, lets take a look at some inspirational quotes from Facebook’s captain, Mark Zuckerberg!

  1. “I started the site when I was 19. I didn’t know much about business back then.”
  2. “I think a simple rule of business is, if you do things that are easier first, then you can actually make a lot of progress.”
  3. “The question I ask myself like almost every day is,’Am I doing the most important thing I could be doing?”
  4. “Find that thing you are super passionate about.”
  5. “Don’t let anyone tell you to change who you are.”
  6. “People can be really smart or have skills that are directly applicable, but if they don’t really believe in it, then they are not going to really work hard.”
  7. “Our society needs more heroes who are scientists, researchers, and engineers. We need to celebrate and reward the people who cure diseases, expand our understanding of humanity and work to improve people’s lives.”
  8. “If you just work on stuff that you like and you’re passionate about, you don’t have to have a master plan with how things will play out.”
  9. “Instead of building walls, we can help build bridges.”
  10. “If you’re always under the pressure of real identity, I think that is somewhat of a burden.”
  11. “Books allow you to fully explore a topic and immerse yourself in a deeper way than most media today.”
  12. “My number one piece of advice is: you should learn how to program.”
  13. “Helping a billion people connect is amazing, humbling and by fare the thing I am most proud of in my life.”
  14. “Move fast and break things. Unless you are breaking stuff, you are not moving fast enough.”
  15. “I’m here to build something for the long-term. Anything else is a distraction.”

Lets make some extra delicious ‘crust’ Macaroni and Cheese.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups elbow macaroni
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1/4 cup butter, divided
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon white pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
  • 1 teaspoon prepared yellow mustard
  • 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup dry bread crumbs

Preparation

Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9×13 inch glass baking dish. Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the macaroni, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain and mix with half of the butter.

While the macaroni is boiling, melt the remaining butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the onions, and cook until the onions begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Stir in the flour, and cook 5 minutes longer. Add the milk and bring to a simmer, stirring frequently.

Cook and stir until the milk has thickened, about 10 minutes. Once thick and smooth, stir in the salt, white pepper, Worcestershire sauce, hot pepper sauce, mustard, 2 cups of Cheddar cheese, and 1/4 cup of Parmesan cheese. Stir until the cheeses have melted, then stir in the macaroni until evenly coated. Scrape into the prepared baking dish, and smooth the top.

Toss the remaining 1 cup Cheddar cheese and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese with the dry bread crumbs in a mixing bowl. Sprinkle evenly over the top of the macaroni. Bake in the preheated oven until the macaroni is hot and the crust is golden brown, about 30 minutes.

The Cardiff City footballer Emiliano Sala was found missing and feared dead in a plane missing issue. The plane carried Sala and the Pilot, David Ibbotson on board. The debris from the plane has been discovered in the English Channel.

The plane, Piper Malibu N264DB was lost on 21 January on its way from Nantes, France, to Cardiff. David Mearns, who led a privately-funded search for the aircraft, said that it was located off Guernsey. “All I will say, is that there is a substantial amount of wreckage on the seabed.” said David. He is a marine explorer who has been working alongside the Air Accidents Investigation Branch (AAIB).

A search boat located the debris on the seabed of the English Channel at 9:00 am on Sunday, in a search led by David. The Guernsey Police stopped looking for Sala and Ibbotson three days after the incident had reported, with officials saying the chance of them being alive was extremely unlikely.
