Desire (often stylized as Iyanya vs. Desire) is the second studio album by Nigerian recording artist Iyanya, released by Made Men Music Group on February 6, 2013. The album's production was handled by Tee Y Mix, D'Tunes, Mr. Chido and GospelOnDeBeatz.
The 19 track album features guest appearances from M.I, Wizkid, D'banj, Emma Nyra, Tiwa Savage, Flavour N'abania, May D, Tekno, and Yung L. The album was supported by six singles—"Kukere", "Kukere Remix", "Flavour", "Jombolo", "Ur Waist" and "Sexy Mama".
The meaning behind Desire stems from the concept of one having an alter ego. In a nutshell, Iyanya compares and contrasts his dualistic personalities, saying: "Desire was just an R & B guy with a great voice who took time to write music and talk about his feelings but just a few people appreciate Desire. Desire never made so much money. Desire always begged for shows, hustles for everything but Iyanya is global. Iyanya is accepted by all." Iyanya started working on Iyanya vs. Desire after wrapping up his debut album, My Story. He got inspired to record the hit single, "Kukere", during a visit to his hometown, Calabar. During the same visit, Iyanya realized that the Etighi dance didn't have a unique song to it; to change that and popularize the dance crave, he teamed up with producer D'Tunes and recorded "Kukere".

In computer programming, Eclipse is an integrated development environment (IDE). It contains a base workspace and an extensible plug-in system for customizing the environment. Eclipse is written mostly in Java and its primary use is for developing Java applications, but it may also be used to develop applications in other programming languages through the use of plugins, including: Ada, ABAP, C, C++, COBOL, Fortran, Haskell, JavaScript, Julia,Lasso, Lua, NATURAL, Perl, PHP, Prolog, Python, R, Ruby (including Ruby on Rails framework), Scala, Clojure, Groovy, Scheme, and Erlang. It can also be used to develop packages for the software Mathematica. Development environments include the Eclipse Java development tools (JDT) for Java and Scala, Eclipse CDT for C/C++ and Eclipse PDT for PHP, among others.
The initial codebase originated from IBM VisualAge. The Eclipse software development kit (SDK), which includes the Java development tools, is meant for Java developers. Users can extend its abilities by installing plug-ins written for the Eclipse Platform, such as development toolkits for other programming languages, and can write and contribute their own plug-in modules.
