I feel I should share this information because even as a Chelsea fan,I still didn't know much about Didier Drogba when he was with Chelsea if not for today.
Ivorian football star Didier Drogba is well known for his prolific scoring as a forward for Chelsea, as well as for being captain of the Côte d’Ivoire national team for the last decade. Drogba has the distinction of being highest goal-scorer of any foreign player in the Premier League, and was even voted the best Chelsea player by supporters of the club in 2012. Here is a list of 10 things I bet you didn’t know about Didier Drogba.
1.His mother nicknamed him ‘Tito’
Drogba’s mother, Name, nicknamed him “Tito” after President Broz Tito of Yugoslavia, whom she greatly admired.
2.He was sent to live with his uncle in France at a young age
At age 5, Drogba was sent to live with his professional footballer uncle, Michel Goba, in France. He returned to his family in Abidjan three years later after becoming homesick, but moved back to France after both his parents lost their jobs as bank workers.

What REALLY turns women on: Researchers reveal find out
Researchers have finally answered the question of what really turns a woman on.
A new study has analysed the effects of light touch, pressure and vibration on the female body to find out exactly where the most sensitive areas are.
Researchers found that for light touch, the neck was most sensitive, for pressure the clitoris and nipple were most sensitive, and for vibration the clitoris was the most sensitive part of the body
The results give an unprecedented glimpse into exactly how women become aroused.
The team say their work could have implications for those undergoing breast augmentation and gender reassignment surgery.
The Canadian team at the Université du Québec à Montréal analysed thirty healthy women aged between 18 and 35 years old.
They were were assessed on the perineum (clitoris, labia minora, vaginal, and anal margin), breast (lateral, areola, nipple), and control body locations (neck, forearm, abdomen).
Researchers did not look at other areas such as sucking toes.
The team asked the women to get undressed and lie on a table covered in a bed sheet.
Participants were asked to wear goggles to blindfold them during testing.
They then used scientific instruments to apply the various forms of touch.
The researchers applied stimulation for 1.5 seconds, then waited for five seconds before asking the women if they felt it.
The researcher say the study is the first of its kind.

Find out the ten happiest countries in the world
(CNN) -- Is there pixie dust mixed into the food and drink of the happiest places on Earth? Or is it something in the crisp clear air of many of the world's happiest nations?
When the United Nations declared March 20 the International Day of Happiness, it recognized the relevance of "happiness and well-being as universal goals and aspirations in the lives of human beings around the world." This officially designated happy date is marking its second year.
Bet you can't watch this without smiling
Scandanavian countries rank as happiest
The happiest of countries -- many of which are in Scandinavia according the latest World Happiness Report -- have a robust combination of higher life expectancy, gross domestic product per capita, social support, generosity, freedom to make life choices and lower perceptions of corruption. By analyzing happiness data, officials hope to improve the world's social, economic and environmental well-being.

Microsoft RACES to fix Internet Explorer bug that puts a QUARTER of web users at risk
Microsoft Corp is rushing to fix a bug in its widely used Internet Explorer web browser after a computer security firm disclosed the flaw over the weekend, saying hackers have already exploited it in attacks on some U.S. companies.
Microsoft disclosed on Saturday its plans to fix the bug, which targets Internet Explorer versions 9 through 11.
Those versions take up 26.25 percent of the browser market, according to FireEye, the cybersecurity software company that caught the bug.
The bug, however, reportedly affects versions 6 through 11. Together, those versions dominate desktop browsing, accounting for 55 percent of the PC browser market, according to tech research firm NetMarketShare.
PCs running Windows XP will not receive any updates fixing that bug when they are released, however, because Microsoft stopped supporting the 13-year-old operating system earlier this month.
Security firms estimate that between 15 and 25 percent of the world's PCs still run Windows XP.
FireEye Inc said that a sophisticated group of hackers have been exploiting the bug in a campaign dubbed 'Operation Clandestine Fox.'
FireEye, whose Mandiant division helps companies respond to cyber attacks, declined to name specific victims or identify the group of hackers, saying that an investigation into the matter is still active. It described the hackers as 'extremely proficient at lateral movement' and 'difficult to track.'
'It's a campaign of targeted attacks seemingly against U.S.-based firms, currently tied to defense and financial sectors,' FireEye spokesman Vitor De Souza said via email. 'It's unclear what the motives of this attack group are, at this point. It appears to be broad-spectrum intel gathering.'
He declined to elaborate, though he said one way to protect against them would be to switch to another browser.
Microsoft said in the advisory that the vulnerability could allow a hacker to take complete control of an affected system, then do things such as viewing changing, or deleting data, installing malicious programs, or creating accounts that would give hackers full user rights.
FireEye and Microsoft have not provided much information about the security flaw or the approach that hackers could use to figure out how to exploit it, said Aviv Raff, chief technology officer of cybersecurity firm Seculert.
Yet other groups of hackers are now racing to learn more about it so they can launch similar attacks before Microsoft prepares a security update, Raff said.
'Microsoft should move fast,' he said. 'This will snowball.'
Still, he cautioned that Windows XP users will not benefit from that update since Microsoft has just halted support for that product.
The software maker said in a statement to Reuters that it advises Windows XP users to upgrade to one of two most recently versions of its operating system, Windows 7 or 8.

70% Of Bank Atms Exposed To Fraud – Microsoft
Over 70 per cent of Automated Teller Machines owned and operated by banks in the country, which are currently running on the Windows XP operating system, are exposed to frauds as Microsoft has foreclosed the extension of the deadline for cyber security support for the banks.
Microsoft had on April 8 stopped offering cyber security and technical support for the Windows XP, following a year’s notice.
Banks in the country have been discussing with Microsoft Nigeria for a possible extension of the deadline.
The Country Manager, Microsoft Nigeria, Mr. Kabelo Makwane, however, told our correspondent in an exclusive interview on Thursday that the American company would not grant any extension to banks in the country.
Makwane, who spoke through the Country Chief Technology Officer of the company, Mr. Olayinka Oni, said Microsoft was in advance discussions with the banks to get them migrated to the Windows 8 operating system.

European sex trafficking victims revealed
Victoria avoids all eye contact. Her gaze alternates between boring into the ground and scouring the horizon out the window. Her right foot taps nervously on the wooden floor.She is one of the 300 female trafficking victims helped each year at the crisis intervention centre run by the International Organisation for Migration in the Moldovan capital, Chisinau.
Her story is shocking. 'A childhood friend told me she worked in a boutique in Dubai and could help me get a similar job,' she explains. 'She put me in touch with a guy who arranged my trip to Odessa [in Ukraine] and onward from Kiev to Dubai.
In Dubai I was met by a Russian speaking woman, Oxana, who took me to a flat with six other girls from Eastern Europe.
'Oxana told me I’d been sold and took my passport away. I refused to see clients and as a result, was denied food. My cries and pleas were met with blows and kicks.'

Malaysia defence minister today said the plane had been 'fully serviced' and all maintenance checks 'were in order
Unfortunately, this incident did not occur in April, I would have accepted it to be April fool. I’m still perplexed over the missing Malaysian Airlines after six days. This means, our technology, science, researches, knowledge and predictions can of course humble us some day in future.Why do some of us find it difficult to believe the existence of the supremacy called God?
Read the piece I got from dailymail.co.uk today for the update of the missing Malaysia airlines
American aviation chiefs warned
six months ago that a kind of Boeing jet similar to the Malaysian Airlines plane that has gone missing was vulnerable to a mid-air break up.
As searchers headed for a possible crash site for Flight MH370, it emerged that the US Federation Aviation Authority ordered airlines to fix a potentially fatal flaw in Boeing 777 jets.
The FAA reportedly warned the planes could break apart and suffer a drastic loss in cabin pressure because of cracks in the fuselage.
Authorities have today insisted the plane had been 'fully serviced' and all the maintenance checks 'were in order'.
In an ‘airworthiness directive’ (AD) dated September 18 last year, airlines were given until April 9 this year to ‘detect and correct cracking and corrosion in the fuselage skin’ beneath the airliners' communications antennae.

Social network rumoured to be spending $60m on solar-powered aircraft to bring internet to Africa
Facebook is rumoured to be acquiring a company that makes solar-powered drones.
And while many people might be worried that the social network could spy on them from the skies, a more altruistic purpose is driving the company’s acquisition bid.
Facebook is tipped to spend up to $60million on buying Texas-based Titan Aerospace, which makes drones that can fly solo for five years without needing to land, in order to bring affordable internet access to some five billion people who don’t have it.
TechCrunch has reported that the social network, which is a backer of the Internet.org initiative, is interested in using some 11,000 high altitude drones to bring internet access to rural Africa and other parts of the world that are not connected.
The company is said to be interested in using the Solara 60 model, which is light-weight solar-powered and can fly at 65,000 feet for five years non-stop.

DT Exclusive: Jose Mourinho's 'silent' halftime team talk in full
If you are a football fan, you would understand better on Saturday, Chelsea put in a poor first half against Fulham and Jose Mourinho was not pleased. So at halftime, the man who usually has a difficult time keeping quiet did just that. And in the second half, Andre Schurrle had a hat trick, giving Chelsea a 3-1 win.
From the Guardian:
"I didn't say a word at half-time, I was silent," Mourinho said. "Normally I give them two or three minutes, for them to clean or change boots or shirts, and then after that they know I'll start talking. They were there, ready for me, but I was not ready for them. I decided not to speak because, if I started to speak about the first half, I'd need more than the 10 minutes of half-time. I was so disappointed.
"That was the first time I've done that, at Chelsea for sure, and also perhaps in my career. But I haven't had many first halves like this one. It was very bad, so I decided not to speak and went outside, did nothing, just waited for the second half. The players showed they were very intelligent. Without words, they understood the first half was really poor and they transformed it into a fantastic second half."

A must read part two!
ANDREA GILBERTSON, 41, runs a motivational and finance website. She is single and lives alone in North Shields. She had an abortion nearly 15 years ago and says:
My friend Sally and I were on holiday in Dublin when we got chatting to two men in a bar. The alcohol flowed, the lads turned their Irish charm on us and Sally whispered that she was going for a walk with one of the guys.
That left me with his friend, who asked me back to his apartment. Not wanting to spend the rest of the evening alone, I agreed and we ended up having way too much to drink and having a one-night stand. We parted without swapping contact details the next morning and never saw each other again.
I’m not proud of it, especially as we failed to use contraception, something which came back to haunt me a month later in July 1999 when, during a routine smear test, I discovered I was pregnant.
I was mortified. How could I have allowed this to happen? I was 27, I’d just bought my own house and had a great job as a travel agent. I didn’t even know the surname of the man who’d got me pregnant and I was adamant I didn’t want to bring up a fatherless child.

200 women troops sent home for being pregnant
More than 200 servicewomen have been sent home from war zones after discovering they were pregnant.
An astonishing 99 were evacuated from Afghanistan and 102 from Iraq under rules that ban mothers-to-be from serving on the front line.
Commanders ordered them to return to Britain – sometimes on flights reserved for injured troops – as soon as their condition became known.
Incredibly, female soldiers are not forced to take a pregnancy test before deploying because top brass believe it would be an invasion of privacy.
But the Ministry of Defence has faced calls to introduce compulsory tests because it is ‘unacceptable’ that other service personnel are placed at risk of attack while evacuating pregnant women from the front line.
Pregnancy tests can be bought from High Street chemists for less than £10 and can give a result as soon as seven days after conception.

Nuisance beggar caught with £800 in his pocket....................
A beggar that police believe isn't even homeless has boasted of raising £800 in just three days.
The unidentified man was found to be carrying the substantial sum of money when officers arrested him in Nottingham city centre on an unrelated matter on February 4, but they were forced to let him keep the cash when they could find no evidence to prove he had obtained it illegally.
Nottinghamshire Police now fears the man could be one of 10 'hardcore' beggars operating in the city, none of who are thought to be genuinely homeless or in need of help.
Police officers originally arrested the unidentified man last week after he failed to turn up at Lincolnshire Court on an unrelated matter.
Upon searching him they discovered a haul of £800 in notes and coins in his pockets.
Police said that although the man is well known as a prolific beggar, they were forced to hand the money back to him as he had been arrested for something else and it could not be proven that he had broken any law in obtaining it. The man was later released without charge.
A police spokeswoman told MailOnline: 'As far as we know the man isn't actually homeless. He is just sitting shivering and people feel sorry for him. If he doesn't actually ask for money, he hasn't broken the law.'

but, as for me, windows XP still remain my best windows, is so compactable to
any software while windows vista was the
poorest. Wisely, the introduction of Windows 7 operating system redeemed the
image of Microsoft Corporation.
Life we all know is not static but dynamic, so we owned
ourselves the responsibility to adapt to changes when is necessary to do so.
Below is the report from Microsoft Corporation:
Microsoft has provided support for Windows XP for the past 12 years. But now the time has come for us, along with our hardware and software partners, to invest our resources toward supporting more recent technologies so that we can continue to deliver great new experiences.
As a result, after April 8, 2014, technical assistance for Windows XP will no longer be available, including automatic updates that help protect your PC. Microsoft will also stop providing Microsoft Security Essentials for download on Windows XP on this date. (If you already have Microsoft Security Essentials installed, you will continue to receive anti-malware signature updates for a limited time, but this does not mean that your PC will be secure because Microsoft will no longer be providing security updates to protect your PC.)
If you continue to use Windows XP after support ends, your computer will still work but it might become more vulnerable to security risks and viruses. Also, as more software and hardware manufacturers continue to optimize for more recent versions of Windows, you can expect to encounter greater numbers of apps and devices that do not work with Windows XP.
What does it mean if my version of Windows is no longer supported?
