Good going puys. Continuing the efforts put by every one here, I'll put another type of questionnaire. Each day I'll put a set of questions about the important happenings of 2008 starting from the month of January.

Reference - Yearbook 2009

Let's get going for January:

1. Venezuela's new currency is?
2. Name the 14th and 15th countries to adopt euro as their currency.
3.Name the Olympic champion banned for 4 years for a 2006 doping violation.
4. Who was elected as the President of Marshall Islands?
5. President of Maldives?
6. Which movie won the Golden Globe award for Best motion picture?
7. President of Guatemala?
8. 56th governer of Lousiana?
9. Name NASAs 2nd spacecraft to Mars.
10. Presidentof Venezuela?
11. NYSE Euronext, the holding company for NYSE bought which stock exchange for $260 million in stocks?
12. Italian PM?
