Facebook announced the repurchase of the application WhatsApp for a total of 19 billions dollars. The Social Network had never spend as much during an acquisition. Until now, the record was during the repurchase of Instagram for a million dollars (without talking about snapchat that proposed them 3 billions dollars)
More of that, the application is just a software of messaging services. According to the statistics of the month of January, there is more that 400 millions of users that text about 10 billions messages each day.
The purchase of whatsapp is the occasion for facebook to kill redoubtable competitor, because the American network is starting to not being use anymore, particularly by the teenagers.

Who is holland going to go with to this vivit of Obama?
When French President Francois Hollande flew to Washington this week for a state visit, he brought along a lot of baggage.
Hollande left France know and admitted that he cheated on his partner of seven years with a younger movie actress, making this week's trip something of an escape for the embattled president.
The former French first lady Valerie Trierweiler whom Obama said in November he was looking forward to hosting, isn't coming to the White House now that Hollande has announced their split.
He says his private life is private, but Hollande's not denying the affair. Now he's in America solo for one of Washington's most tradition-bound events, where protocol dictates nearly everything and a slip-up, however unlikely, could wind up offending a top ally.

CVS quits, no more tabacco product
WASHINGTON- The store CVS Caremark just announced that they will not sell tobacco any more.
CVS is a company that sells about 1,5 billions $ in tobacco each year. Apparently, the reason is : selling cigarettes while promoting wellness doesn't make sense.
Selling tobacco is very inconsistent in that business", "we really though about the decision as it relates to the future as a health company, it's good for the customers and our company, in the long run" sais Helena Foulkes, the CVS's president.
The new CVS's idea is to create some doctor's offices, with 26000 pharmacists and nurse, taking care about how to control the cholesterol, diabetes and high blood pressure.
Witch is kind of funny!!
