Albert Einstein
At age twelve Einstein learned complex mathematics on his own. He was very bored with the
simple work at school. He always wanted to learn more and more. So, besides learning at
school, he loved studying on his own. He read a lot of books that were not in the school course.
A lot of people began to think Einstein was very stupid because he did not do so well in his
school subjects. What they did not know was that he was too intelligent for the school work they
gave him.
He loved studying physics and maths the best and loved to play the violin in his free time. He
became world famous when he came up with the scientific formula E=mc2.
Some of Einstein's ideas were used by other scientists to make bombs. However, Einstein
himself was a peaceful man. He talked very much about how the world is better without bombs
and war. He will be known forever as one of the greatest minds of the world.

Let’s see some names of famous people from Panama.

Mariano Rivera
Beginnings Mariano Rivera was born on November 29, 1969. Rivera has one
older sister, Delia, and two younger brothers, Alvaro and Giraldo. The family lived
in Puerto Caimito. As a young man, Rivera played soccer and baseball with his
friends on the beach. Soccer was his favorite sport, and Pelé his favorite athlete. For
baseball games, they substituted cardboard milk cartons for gloves and tree
branches for bats, and they fashioned balls by taping wads of shredded fishing nets.
Rivera used this makeshift equipment until his father bought him his first leather
glove when he was 12 years old.
Rivera attended Victoriano Chacón Elementary School and Pedro Pablo Sanchez
for his secondary education, but he dropped out in ninth grade. At age 16, he began
to learn the fishing trade by working on a commercial boat captained by his father.
Rivera, who worked six-day weeks, year round, called the job "extremely hard" and
was more interested in becoming a mechanic.
Rivera continued to play sports during his teenage years but eventually quit
soccer around age 17 after a series of ankle and knee injuries. Consequently, he
shifted his attention to baseball, though he considered it a hobby rather than a
potential profession. At age 18, Rivera joined the Panamá Oeste Vaqueros, a local
amateur baseball team, as a utility player.
Scout Herb Raybourn watched him play shortstop in a 1988 baseball tournament
but did not project him to be a major leaguer. A year later, Panamá Oeste's pitcher
performed so poorly in a playoff game that Rivera was asked to replace him, and
despite no experience at the position, he pitched well. Teammates Claudino
Hernández and Emilio Gáez consequently contacted Chico Heron, a scout for the
New York Yankees. Two weeks after his pitching debut, Rivera was invited to a
Yankees tryout camp run by Heron in Panama City. Raybourn, who had returned to
Panama to scout as the Yankees' director of Latin American operations, received a
tip about Rivera. Raybourn was surprised to hear he had switched positions but
decided to watch him throw.
Although Rivera had no formal pitching training, weighed just 155 pounds (70
kg), and threw only 85–87 miles per hour (137–140 kilometers per hour), Raybourn
was impressed by his athleticism and smooth, effortless pitching motion. Viewing
Rivera as a raw talent, Raybourn signed the amateur free agent to a contract with
the Yankees organization on February 17, 1990; the contract included a signing
bonus of US$2,500 ($4,892 today), according to Major League Baseball (MLB)
records
