Black parents... white baby!

THE stunned black dad of a newborn, WHITE, baby girl declared yesterday — "I'm sure she's my kid ... I just don't know why she's BLONDE."

British Nmachi Ihegboro has amazed genetics experts who say the little girl is NOT an albino. 

Dad Ben, 44, a customer services adviser, admitted: "We both just sat there after the birth staring at her."

Mum Angela, 35, of Woolwich, South London, beamed as she said: "She's beautiful - a miracle baby."

Ben told yesterday how he was so shocked when Nmachi was born, he even joked: "Is she MINE?" 

Little 'miracle' ... Nmachi Ihegboro

He added: "Actually, the first thing I did was look at her and say, 'What the flip?'"

But as the baby's older brother and sister - both black - crowded round the "little miracle" at their home in South London, Ben declared: "Of course she's mine."

Blue-eyed blonde Nmachi, whose name means "Beauty of God" in the Nigerian couple's homeland, has baffled genetics experts because neither Ben nor wife Angela have ANY mixed-race family history.

Pale genes skipping generations before cropping up again could have explained the baby's appearance.

Ben also stressed: "My wife is true to me. Even if she hadn't been, the baby still wouldn't look like that.Recovery

How to Upgrade an Old Phone into a Porsche

 Most people throw away old cell phones without a second thought. Steven Ortiz is not like most teenagers. This 17-year-old Californian went on Craigslist to turn a used cell phone a friend gave him into a Porsche convertible. Harvard Business School, watch out for this guy.

Ortiz's story brings to mind the similar accomplishment of Kyle MacDonald, a Canadian who started "Craigslist swapping" with a red paperclip in 2005 and eventually ended up with a two-story farmhouse. Through his blog and the kindness of strangers, MacDonald made 14 swaps over the classifieds website, upgrading one item to a more valuable one until he ended up with a house a year later.

Date: July 18, 2010, 4:01 pm From: "Your Friend" To: "John Dough" (Address hidden) Dear John Dough. I am replying in regard to the BUSINESS PROPOSAL that you have sent me a couple of days ago. First of all, I want to relay to you how saddened I am to hear of what has befallen your Father, Dr. Gubwano Mumbasa. While I never heard of him before, as I do not generally keep up to date on the affairs of Nigeria, your letter left me with little doubt that his was a career filled with success and achievements. I'm sure Dr. Mumbasa's plight will find many sympathizers among the honest people of your great nation. As I have stated, I do not follow the events in your part of the world too closely, but from what I did hear of Nigeria, the events detailed in your letter do not surprise me in the least. It is outrageous that such a horrible injustice can take place at the dawn of the Twenty First century. But I would like to discuss your proposal. It could not have come at a better time. You see, just last week, I have received a confidential letter from Never-Neverland. It was from a man named Chuichui Todescu, who is the Loyal Servant of Sir Alfonzo Chow, the recently Deceased General in the People's Army of that country.

6 Things You Should Never Reveal on Facebook

The whole social networking phenomenon has millions of Americans sharing their photos, favorite songs and details about their class reunions on Facebook, MySpace, Twitter and dozens of similar sites. But there are a handful of personal details that you should never say if you don’t want criminals — cyber or otherwise — to rob you blind, according to Beth Givens, executive director of the Privacy Rights Clearinghouse.

The folks at Insure.com also say that ill-advised Facebook postings increasingly can get your insurance cancelled or cause you to pay dramatically more for everything from auto to life insurance coverage. By now almost everybody knows that those drunken party photos could cost you a job, too.

You can certainly enjoy networking and sharing photos, but you should know that sharing some information puts you at risk. What should you never say on Facebook, Twitter or any other social networking site?

Your birth date and place.

Sure, you can say what day you were born, but if you provide the year and where you were born too, you’ve just given identity thieves a key to stealing your financial life, said Givens. A study done by Carnegie Mellon showed that a date and place of birth could be used to predict most — and sometimes all — of the numbers in your Social Security number, she said.

Vacation plans. There may be a better way to say “Rob me, please” than posting something along the lines of: “Count-down to Maui! Two days and Ritz Carlton, here we come!” on Twitter. But it’s hard to think of one. Post the photos on Facebook when you return, if you like. But don’t invite criminals in by telling them specifically when you’ll be gone.

11Things You Really Should Have Done Before Getting Married

1. Watch yourself eating in front of a mirror. If you're put off, that's the view your future partner will have...

2. Live on your own. It's important that you find out what a hopeless slob you are before your beloved tells you. And then leaves you...

3. Men: Get rid of those "How to Get Girls Even Though You're Poor and Ugly' books. They never work anyway... 

4. Gobble the last slice of pizza without having to go through the 'No you have it, no really... Are you sure you don't mind...?

5. Walk about the house naked, without having to hold any bits in...

6. Have friends of the opposite sex. After marriage, it's too much effort to keep saying: "No, I really don't fancy them"...

7. Men: Enjoy that wardrobe space while you can! You will not believe the vast number of shoes that one woman needs...

8. Women: Fill in silly magazine quizzes with titles like 'Are You Seductive', without having to listen to loud laughter from your partner (who then runs off with the magazine)...The Gift

9. Men: Get rid of anything inflatable and female-shaped...

10. Relish clipping your toenails straight onto the carpet...

11. Remember that your best option with in-laws is to marry an orphan...

Xbox 360 - FIFA World Cup 2010 Game Review

FIFA WORLD CUP 2010 - What a great game.

The majority of you reading this article will have probably played or own a copy of FIFA 2010 and wonder if it is worth buying what is an extension of this game. Well I am in that category and I fully recommend purchasing it.

The first thing that I was struck by was the amount of teams they have managed to pack into this game, you can literally pick anyone in the world to play with should you want to, whether you are a resident of Andorra or Zambia you can pick your native/favourite country and go for glory in a World Cup Campaign.

For the rest of you glory hunters (like me) you will more likely pick from Spain, Brazil, Germany, England or Holland etc.

The guys at EA Sports have really worked hard improving faces, stadiums, fans and the all round general authentic feel we all look for in each of the FIFA releases.

Note: You now get managers shown at moments during the game gesturing instructions as you would have in a real football match! Mr Capello looks as mafia-ish as ever on the sidelines in his England Suit.

I have played other FIFA spin offs and this by far the best one they have produced and one I will continue to play when the World cup is concluded.
