Couch mode print story Firefox is your favorite browser but, over time, it keeps getting slower and slower. Not only can it get slow, Firefox may sometimes hangs for no reason, consumes a large amount of memory and CPU usage can climb to 90% or more when you have multiple tabs open in the browser.

You have uninstalled most of the extensions and toolbars, deleted all the cookies and internet temporary files, cleared up the file download queue and disabled the background check for software updates - but none of this has helped you speed-up Firefox. This is a common problem especially if you have been running the Firefox program on your computer for some time - I don't know why Firefox slows down but here's a small trick to rejuvenate the aged copy of Firefox without doing a fresh install.

Yes, there won't be any old Firefox add-ons in the new profile but the browser will be extremely quick and won't hog the CPU - just the way you want Firefox to run on your computer.

Splitting Water with Sunlight. Hydrogen is one of the most important fuels of the future, and the sun will be one of our most important sources of energy. Why not combine the two to produce hydrogen directly from solar energy without any detours involving electrical current?

Why not use a process similar to the photosynthesis used by plants to convert sunlight directly into chemical energy? Researchers from the German Max Planck Institute have now developed a catalyst that may do just that. As they report in the journal Angewandte Chemie, titanium disilicide splits water into hydrogen and oxygen. And the semiconductor doesn’t just act as a photocatalyst, it also stores the gases produced, which allows an elegant separation of hydrogen and oxygen.

“The generation of hydrogen and oxygen from water by means of semiconductors is an important contribution to the use of solar energy,” explains Martin Demuth (of the Max Planck Institute for Bioinorganic Chemistry in Mülheim an der Ruhr).

Clever plants chat over their own network. Recent research from Vidi researcher Josef Stuefer at the Radboud University Nijmegen reveals that plants have their own chat systems that they can use to warn each other. Therefore plants are not boring and passive organisms that just stand there waiting to be cut off or eaten up. Many plants form internal communications networks and are able to exchange information efficiently. Many herbal plants such as strawberry, clover, reed and ground elder naturally form networks. Individual plants remain connected with each other for a certain period of time by means of runners.

Recently Stuefer and his colleagues were the first to demonstrate that clover plants warn each other via the network links if enemies are nearby. However there are two sides to the coin. This research clearly reveals that the general image of plants is a poor reflection of reality.

DrugReporter: 10 Million Americans Busted for Pot: Enough is Eno. September 30, 2007 | Like this article? Join our email list: Stay up to date with the latest headlines via email. What would cops do without weed? That's according to the FBI's Uniform Crime Report, which reported last week that a record 829,625 Americans were arrested for violating marijuana laws last year.

Yet to hear local law enforcement spin it, busting small-time potheads isn't their priority. But don't tell Drug Czar John Walters that. Predictably, both the cops and the drug czar are playing fast and loose with the facts. As for Walter's comments, while the survey did indeed report a minor decline in adolescents' self-reported use of pot, it further reported a minor uptick in the total number of Americans who report using marijuana regularly, from 14.6 million in 2005 to 14.8 million in 2006.

Of course, a less than 2 percent increase in pot users from '05 to '06 doesn't explain why pot arrests jumped more than five percent from a then-record 786,545 to today's total. The Mine by Matthew Spira. I liked this script. The concept was excellent, the formatting was of a high quality and clearly a great deal of research had been done to provide all those interesting little details on which an historical story rests. However I have a number of reservations. The actual concept is poorly explained. You say that these mines were intended to end the war. But that is historically untrue as Messines was only a prequel to Third Ypres. Furthermore it isn't even true in your script because whilst the mines help the British seize the Messines Ridge, they don't win the war for them.

I felt that there were perhaps too many very short scenes, especially detailing events in the trenches that don't concern our characters. The lack of long scenes also cripples the tension. There is something of a problem with the protagonist. This is also true of the scenes with Haig, Plumer and Lloyd-George. I also thought there was an excess of swearing.

Algae are a promising source of biofuels: besides being easy to grow and handle, some varieties are rich in oil similar to that produced by soybeans. Algae also produce another fuel: hydrogen. They make a small amount of hydrogen naturally during photosynthesis, but Anastasios Melis, a plant- and microbial-biology professor at the University of California, Berkeley, believes that genetically engineered versions of the tiny green organisms have a good shot at being a viable source for hydrogen.

Melis has created mutant algae that make better use of sunlight than their natural cousins do. This could increase the hydrogen that the algae produce by a factor of three. It would also boost the algae’s production of oil for biofuels. The new finding will be important in maximizing the production of hydrogen in large-scale, commercial bioreactors. Melis and his colleagues are designing algae that have less chlorophyll so that they absorb less sunlight. Advanced biofuels | Ethanol, schmethanol | Economist.com.

Body beauty is "everything" in our society. We're caught up more on our body beauty than anything else.

Check out my new widget in the far right sidebar. I used the free NewsGator widget maker to build it from my existing feed. A couple of things worth mentioning, first being that I can build a widget from multiple feeds, which quite honestly I think it more useful than having a blogroll. I think if I were to have a blogroll widget I would probably want it to be some kind of scrolling widget that rolls up posts in my blogroll on a continual basis.

Secondly, one of the consequences about aggregating feeds is that there is a lot of stuff that I want to filter out. For example, maybe I want my widget to just feature the tech posts I write and not the public policy stuff, which I know a lot of people don’t want. Using the Editor’s Desk app that is part of the service I can select items to feature in the widget by simply checking off the post items. Tags: Newsgator, widgets Like this: Like Loading...
