Sunflares are explosions from the sun's surface. In 2025, a very huge sunflare is increasingly now being considered by experts. The National Institute of Information and Communications Technology in Japan held a meeting to discuss what could occur during this time.
According to their statement, the worst case scenario would be that cellphones and televisions would probably not work for 2 weeks. Car navigation systems would probably not work correctly. If electric companies would not prepare, machineries relying on electricity might not work correctly and a lot of places might have blackouts.
The agency is now preparing their forecast on things that could occur during this sunflare. As much as possible preparations are made so that at...
With more countries coming under the grip of the monkeypox outbreak, the World Health Network (WHN), an independent coalition of scientists formed to tackle the COVID-19 threat, has declared the disease a pandemic. The WHN said that the essential purpose of declaring a pandemic is to achieve a concerted effort across multiple countries or over the world to prevent widespread harm. An infection is declared pandemic when it grows over a wide area, crossing international boundaries, and usually affecting a large number of people.
There are 3,417 confirmed monkeypox cases reported across 58 countries and the outbreak is rapidly expanding across multiple continents, it said in a statement.
The announcement comes ahead of the World Health...

Presumptive president Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr. signaled his determination to adopt nuclear power Monday, holding talks with South Korea's envoy on possibly reviving a mothballed $2.2 billion (P115 billion) plant built during his father's rule.
The 620-megawatt Bataan Nuclear Power Plant was left dormant after the late dictator Ferdinand Marcos Sr. was toppled in 1986.
In the run-up to the May 9 presidential election, Marcos Jr. spoke about the need for nuclear power to address exorbitant electricity costs in the country.

The captured Spectator is from the more advance M1 version, which is equipped...
The death toll from an overnight earthquake in Afghanistan has reached at least 1,000, an official from one of the worst-hit provinces said Wednesday. "The number is increasing. People are digging grave after grave," Mohammad Amin Huzaifa, head of the Information and Culture Department in Paktika, said in a message to journalists. The 5.9 magnitude quake struck hardest in the rugged terrain of the east, where people already live hardscrabble lives in a country in the grip of a humanitarian disaster made worse by the Taliban takeover in August.

Standing on a snowy mountainside about 2,500 metres above sea level, Eric Marechal holds up a crimson test-tube. Inside is an algae sample known as "snow blood," a phenomenon that accelerates Alpine thaw and that scientists worry is spreading. "These algae are green. But when it's in the snow, it accumulates a little pigment like sunscreen to protect itself," said Marechal, research director at Grenoble's Scientific Research National Center, who was collecting laboratory samples on Le Brevent mountain with teammates.

A part-time worker in Japan has reportedly burned down his place of work due to the burnout and stress of the job.

MANILA – The government should expand the second Covid-19 booster doses to the general public for complete protection against the disease, according to a lawmaker.
Iloilo (1st District) Rep. Janette Garin said Saturday that the Delta and Omicron variants of Covid-19, as well as other subvariants, have changed the definition of "fully immunized”, noting that waning and inadequate protection from the primary vaccination series are the reasons why there are breakthrough infections.
"Everything must be backed by science. Trials have established the benefits of receiving two boosters. Those who would like complete protection should be allowed to do so and be given the option," Garin, a...

THE head of the World Health Organization (WHO) said on Monday that the planet can end the Covid-19 emergency this year, although the virus last week killed someone every 12 seconds.
"We can end Covid-19 as a global health emergency, and we can do it this year," Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus told the UN health agency's executive board.
To do so, countries need to work harder to ensure equitable access to vaccines and treatment, track the virus and its emerging variants, and keep restrictions in place, he warned.
The WHO has for months demanded that countries do more to accelerate the distribution of vaccines in poorer nations, calling on all countries to vaccinate at least 70 percent of their populations by the...

The Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE) will permanently close its trading floor. This may be a sentimental moment for many long-time brokers given the PSE’s rich history. As the stock exchange shifts to “floorless trading,” we look back at the origin of the PSE and the unique history of its trading floors.
One of the oldest exchanges in Asia
The PSE was formed on Dec. 23, 1992 as a result of the unification of the country’s two older stock exchanges. Manila Stock Exchange was established on Aug. 8, 1927 and was one of the oldest stock exchanges in Asia. Makati Stock Exchange was incorporated on May 27, 1963. In effect, the PSE is turning 95 years old this year.

CEBU CITY, Philippines — Cebu City Mayor Michael Rama has instructed the Cebu City Police Office (CCPO) not to apprehend individuals who are violating the face mask policy in the city.
Rama said that while the city maintains the mask requirements in all public places, there is no need to focus on this policy since there are other priorities that need attention now that the economy is getting back on its feet.
“I do not want the national police under my watch. Why should we be apprehending? We should be educating. I will be having an emergency meeting with the police. They know my position all the time…there are better things to do, more pressing things to do when it comes to peace and order,” said Rama.
