As pioneering experts in travel health and safety, we prepared an infographic that provides some practical tips and advice for visitors to Brazil to ensure their World Cup trips are incident and worry-free. The key thing to note is that the vast majority of visitors to Brazil will not experience anything worse than a long lineup to pick up their tickets and an exuberant crowd living in the moment. However, Brazil can present a challenging environment for tourists, with a number of health and safety risks to consider. As our infographic states, the three main things travellers should be aware of during their stay in Brazil are dengue fever, protests and petty crimes.

Tomorrow: Tune in to the White House Maker Faire!

We've got another big first happening at the White House tomorrow, and our guests are making a lot of things besides history:

President Obama will celebrate innovators, entrepreneurs, and tinkerers of all ages from across the country at the first-ever White House Maker Faire.

What do we mean by "Makers," exactly?

New technologies such as 3D printers, laser cutters, and easy-to-use design software are enabling more Americans to make and build almost anything these days.

Tomorrow's Maker Faire will feature new and innovative projects, inventions, and designs that are sure to amaze -- and some of these projects may very well create industries and jobs of the future.

And starting at 10 a.m. ET, you can watch the entire event live at WhiteHouse.gov/Maker-Faire.

Tune in tomorrow and see how America's students and entrepreneurs are using cutting-edge tools to invent the future.

P.S. -- Tomorrow will also be a National Day of Making, where communities across America will share and celebrate their involvement in the Maker Movement. Follow along on Twitter at #NationOfMakers to see some of the amazing work across the country.

So when we sat down with America's nine most recently minted Nobel laureates, we asked them to share their perspective on immigration reform, and the importance of maintaining America's competitive advantage as a magnet for global talent.

Watch America's top scientists discuss the need for comprehensive immigration reform:
