Israel ‘shoots down Lebanon drone’

Israel says one of its fighter jets has shot down an unmanned aircraft sent from Lebanon into Israeli airspace. A missile brought down the drone about five miles (8km) west of the northern Israeli port of Haifa around 14:00 (11:00 GMT), officials said. Reports suggest the drone could have been sent by Lebanese militant group Hezbollah, which fought a month-long war against Israel in 2006.It is the second time in seven months Israel has downed a drone from Lebanon.Last October, the Israeli air force shot down an unmanned aircraft over the south of the country. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu condemned the incident as an “extremely grave” attempt to breach Israel’s borders.“We will continue to do whatever it takes to protect the security of Israel’s citizens,” he said.

Google Eye Glass Coming Soon....

Handsets, Laptops, Tablets and IPad. What next??? Google glass and Eye lid technology.
Google Glass is a wearable computer with a head-mounted display (HMD) that is being developed by Google in the Project Glass research and development project, with the mission of producing a mass-market ubiquitous computer.
Google Glass displays information in a smartphone-like hands-free format, that can interact with the Internet via natural language voice commands.
While the frames do not currently have lenses fitted to them, Google is considering partnering with sunglass retailers such as Ray-Ban or Warby Parker, and may also open retail stores to allow customers to try on the device.
The Explorer Edition cannot be used by people who wear prescription glasses, but Google has confirmed that Glass will eventually work with frames and lenses that match the wearer's prescription; the glasses will be modular and therefore possibly attachable to normal prescription glasses.
















Weekend jokes for Couples...

Politicians
Four surgeons are discussing who makes the best patients on the operating table.
The first surgeon says, "I like to see accountants on my operating table, because when you open them up, everything inside is numbered."
The second responds, "Yeah, but you should try electricians! Everything inside them is color coded."
The third surgeon says, "No, I really think librarians are the best; everything inside them is in alphabetical order."
But the fourth surgeon shut them all up when he observed: "You're all wrong. Politicians are the easiest to operate on. There's no guts, no heart, and no spine, and the head and butt are interchangeable!"

What's the Charge???

The man replied: I'm not alone, Jesus Christ is with me here, Angel Gabriel, Angel Rapheal, Angel Micheal and five angels are with me here. 
The policeman said: "all these people inside this your small car?
I charge you for overloading!!!

We will have to leave a third of it behind.""But we did it last year", the hunters insisted. "The pilot took the two of us and the same amount of bush meat in a plane just like yours"The pilot hesitated, but then decided to take their word for it. "Well, if you did it last year, I suppose we can do it again this year."The plane took off. As it approached a nearby mountain, it could not gain height. it crashed into the side of the mountain. The pilot and the hunters crawled out of the plane, dazed but glad to be alive."I wonder where we are," the pilot asked. One of the hunters looked around, "Don't worry, I think we are just 15 metres east of where we crashed last year."

The Nigerian hell
Man dies and goes to Hell, there he finds that there is a different Hell for each country, he decides to go round and choose the least painful to spend his eternity. He goes to the German Hell and ask, "what do they do here" He is told " first they put you in an Electric Chair for an Hour, then lay you on a Bed of Nails for another Hour, then the German Devil comes in and Whips you for the rest of the day.
The Man does not like the sound of that at all so he moves on.
He checks out the USA, UK, RUSSIAN Hells as well as many more. He discovers that they are all similar to the German Hell.
Then he comes to the Nigerian Hell and finds that there is a Long Queue of people waiting to get in.
Amazed, he asks, "what do they do here ?" He is told "First they put you in an Electric Chair for an hour, and then they lay you on a bed of nails for another hour then Nigerian Devil comes in and Whips you for the Rest of the Day." But that is exactly the same as all the other hells, why are there so many people waiting to get in ?" ask the man... A concerned fellow calls him aside and said, "Because there is never any STABLE ELECTRICITY in Nigerian hell so the Electric Chair doesn't work. The nails were paid for but were never SUPPLIED by the Contractor, so the Bed is Comfortable to sleep on... And the Nigerian Devil used to be a CIVIL SERVANT, so he comes in, signs his time sheet and leaves for Personal Business.

What is going on here?" The little boy replied, "Well last night daddy came into my bed room and asked me for the Vaseline, and I gave him super glue."

Nigeria gun battle was joint assault with Chad, Niger (Reuters)

The bloody gun battle against Islamist insurgents in Nigeria last week involved forces from neighboring Chad and Niger, officials said on Tuesday, as West African countries increasingly view jihadist groups as a cross-border threat.
A joint force of more than 100 was assembled after an intelligence report said militants from the Boko Haram militant group had moved into Baga, a fishing town in northeast Nigeria on the shores of Lake Chad, two Nigerian military sources, a senior officer from Niger and a Chadian military official said. The operation - possibly one of the deadliest since Boko Haram launched its insurgency in 2009 - highlights the shared concerns of West African nations that growing links between jihadist groups in the Sahara desert are a threat to their national security. Neighboring countries were alarmed last year when Islamists took over vast parts of Mali before French forces pushed them out.
