SUAREZ A VAMPIRE ON THE FIELD

Best and worst of Liverpool’s Luis Suarez in game against Chelsea at Anfield. Liverpool forward Luis Suarez showcased the very best of his game against Chelsea, with a fine assist for Daniel Sturridge’s goal, a goal of his own in injury time to salvage a point for the Reds, and penetrative running and incisive skill throughout. His display certainly illustrated just why he is one of the best players in the Premier League. However, the Uruguayan’s dark side was also in evidence, and it was shocking to see him bite into Branislav Ivanovic’s arm after losing the ball. It was the second such incident in Suarez’s career, having previously bitten PSV star Otman Bakkal. Watch a video of the bite against Chelsea below.

NATIONAL POLL ON NECO TO BE SCRAPPED

I sent NO to 4662 in public poll that NECO must not be scrapped; in a text message that cost me 30:00 naira, the message below was the response i got, "Thank you for polling - National Orientation Agency, Please help NECO to serve you better. NECO must live because it is our National pride. But all i want to say is if it cant be put to standard it should be scrapped, i went to NECO office at ilupeju and was not to impressed, also i visited WAEC office and it was up to standard  just that the hudlums and fraudsters outside the office area are still there. all this should be rectified and looked into. I believe the exam body has been an impediment  to all universities for them to market themselves which makes generating of funds very difficult and maintenance hard for every institutions, and it all ends to high rate in school fees,  unnecessary fees to be paid by students, I could remember that most schools in the UK, US, CANADA all over the world comes into ...

How To Break Bad Habits Brought On By Stress

I used to notice that there are so many Bad habits that we inhibit when we where young till we grow up, but this could help us break them  Picking at your nails. Chewing your hair. Cracking your knuckles. Are you guilty of any of these? They're "bad" habits" -- things we all do without thinking about it, that are probably annoying to everyone around us. Some are more innocuous -- who's  really  hurt when we clench our jaws, anyway? -- while others are more harmful -- smoking, we're looking at you. And while the triggers can vary from habit to habit and person to person, a lot of the time, we do them because of -- you guessed it -- stress. "Stress and anxiety kind of scramble the brain a bit so we're not able to pay attention the way we need to to keep ourselves from doing things," says Heidi Grant Halvorson, Ph.D., a motivational psychologist, author and  HuffPost blogger . That's because a habit is a habit -- we become conditioned ...

5 Things You Don't Know About Your Brain: A Conversation With Neuroscientist Rafael Yuste

Earlier this month, President Obama announced a proposal to fully map the activity of the human brain. The initiative would aim to better understand both the brain and the often-mystifying conditions that affect it, including Alzheimer's, autism and stroke, among others,  the Associated Press reported at the time . "As humans we can identify galaxies light-years away," Obama told a group of scientists at the White House for his announcement,  according to the AP . "We can study particles smaller than an atom, but we still haven't unlocked the mystery of the three pounds of matter that sits between our ears." One of the key players behind the scenes of this brain-mapping plan is Rafael Yuste, a professor of biological sciences at Columbia University, whose work is credited with helping to launch the project. Yuste presented at the opening night of the 2013 TEDMED conference in Washington D.C. this week. Despite criticisms that his goal is an imposs...

A mosque in Cambridge, Mass., confirmed Saturday that Dzhokhar Tsarnaev and Tamerlan Tsarnaev, the Chechen-born brothers suspected in the Boston marathon attacks, infrequently attended services at the small center that was a 10-minute walk from their apartment.

KYOTO (Reuters) - The world's oldest living person, Japan's Jiroemon Kimura, celebrated his 116th birthday on Friday with congratulations from around the world and from Japan's prime minister.

Facebook has hired the manager who led the development of Apple's widely criticized Maps app.

Richard Williamson joined the social network as its director of engineering this month, according to his LinkedIn profile. Bloomberg reported Wednesday that he has been at Facebook for the past few weeks. Last November, Williamson was fired by Eddy Cue, Apple's senior vice-president of Internet software and services, following numerous user complaints that Maps had major bugs. When it launched last September with iOS 6, the app's problems included: omitting transit directions, providing poor navigation and displaying incomplete 3D views that distorted national monuments. Many compared Maps unfavorably to Google Maps, which was replaced by Apple's in-house mapping service, but later reinstated. Williamson began working at Apple as a senior software engineer in 2001, and took over as the director of iOS software four years later. In January 2012, he became the senior director of iOS platform services, overseeing the creation of Apple Maps. Facebook's new director...

Black Menu (computer tricks)

Black Menu for Chrome puts all your Google services a click away If you rely heavily on Google services, as so many small-business users do these days, you're probably familiar with the black toolbar that spans the top of various Google services. It provides quick and convenient access to apps like Search, Gmail, Calendar, and so on. Ah, but what happens when you're viewing a non-Google site? No toolbar, that's what. Black Menu for Chrome puts all Google services just a click away. Once installed, this extension adds a button to your browser that reveals an attractive drop-down menu for all Google's best stuff: Search, Google+, Translate, Maps, Gmail, Calendar, and the like. Even better, when you mouse over any of these items, you get an interactive window for using them. For example, mouse over Search and you've got a Google Search field ready for your terms. Mouse over Gmail and you'll see your inbox, where you can read and respond to messages, com...

Saving your marriage as a woman

This is specially for wives and intending wives; as it may save you the risk of having a stroke and high BP. 1.

Before you choose your man, ensure he believes in AIDs, STDs and protected sex. That way, chances are that he will not bring HIV and ot...

what really happened @ OVERCOMERS CHURCH WORLD OUTREACH ( GRACE AND FAITH MINISTRY)

There has been so many comments on lindaikeji.blogspot.com which I must say are peoples view or just an automated content posted by them, anyway let’s leave that to them. I just don’t understand why people don’t ask some questions before making judgments on their own, they make comments as if na dem they the place wey the thing happen. None of the people that made comment on that blog has seen both parties not even been to the church that was said and even Linda herself posted what she doesn’t know about the issue and said that Chika Moses said so as their Media Representative. One thing I know is that Men are very deceitful but there are still questions that needs to be answered, which nobody is asking am not in the position to point fingers at whoever is or is not to blame. But I will first think that Solomon Akiyesi is a man without integrity and a stupid one for that matter, also the wife who decided to come all the way from Port-Harcourt and fight in the church with police men ...

Christopher Crist's Dentist Pulls ALL HIS TEETH Without Permission because of altism

Christopher Crist claims that he went into a dentist office to get a few painful teeth pulled. When he walked out, he had none. The 21-year-old Indiana man, who is autistic, told Fox 59 that his mom sent him to Amazing Family Dental in Indianapolis to  get three of his teeth removed . But instead of ending the procedure with three pulled teeth, the dentist kept going, Crist says. "They pulled every last one of them," he told the station. "I am going to look like a freak now." He says the  gruesome operation began  after the dentist gave him some pills to ease the pain of the procedure, WTVR reports. His mother had given him strict instructions to ask that three teeth be pulled. It's unclear when the mixup occurred. Crist was admitted to a hospital where he's reportedly battling an infection due to the dentistry debacle. He and his mother plan to sue the dentist -- who wasn't named because no legal action has yet been taken -- and have witnesses ...
