The Best Firefox Yet

With more than 15,000 improvements, Firefox 3 is faster, safer and smarter than ever before.

Security & Privacy
Instant Web Site ID screenshot
Instant Web Site ID

Want to be extra sure about a site’s legitimacy before you make a purchase? Click on a site favicon for an instant identity overview. Another click digs deeper: how many times have you visited? Are your passwords saved? Check up on suspicious sites, avoid Web forgeries and make sure a site is what it claims to be.
Anti-Malware

Firefox 3 protects you from viruses, worms, trojan horses and spyware. If you accidentally access an attack site, you’ll receive a full-sized browser message as a warning. A continuously updated list of attack-sites tells us when to stop you from browsing, so there’s nothing for you to update or maintain.
Anti-Malware screenshot
Anti-Phishing

Shop and do business safely on the Internet. Firefox gets a fresh update of web forgery sites 48 times in a day, so if you try to visit a fraudulent site that’s pretending to be a site you trust (like your bank), a browser message—big as life—will stop you.
Parental Controls

Enforce parental control settings you’ve entered on Windows Vista with Firefox 3—stop unwanted downloads and more. Firefox’s intuitive design keeps you from second-guessing your setup.
Anti-Virus Software

Firefox 3 integrates elegantly with your antivirus software. When you download a file, your computer’s antivirus program automatically checks it to protect you against viruses and other malware, which could otherwise attack your computer. [available in Windows only]
Add-ons

Firefox looks for a secure connection before installing or updating add-ons, 3rd party software, and Personas.
Password Manager

We’ve seamlessly integrated this feature into your surfing experience. Choose to “remember” site passwords without intrusive pop-ups. Now you’ll see the “remember password” notification integrated into your view at the top of the site page.
Password Manager screenshot
Clear Private Data

Clear your private data automatically—with just one click or a keyboard shortcut. Your info is gone for good—on your own computer or the one at your local library. It’s that easy.
Customized Security Settings

Control the level of scrutiny you’d like Firefox to give a site and enter exceptions—sites that don’t need the third degree. Customize settings for passwords, cookies, loading images and installing add-ons for a fully empowered Web experience.
Automated Update

Our open-source security strategy lets us find—and fix—security issues in record time, making Firefox the safest way to surf. Install upgrades when you receive automatic notification or wait until you’re ready.
Pop-Up Blocker

Banish pop-ups (and pop-under windows) from your surfing experience once and for all. Or, find a happy medium—choose to view blocked pop-ups or create an “allow” list of sites whose pop-ups you’re okay with seeing.

The 10 Best Linus Torvalds Quotes

1. "Software is like sex: it's better when it's free."

2. "Microsoft isn't evil, they just make really crappy operating systems."

3. "My name is Linus, and I am your God."

4. "See, you not only have to be a good coder to create a system like Linux, you have to be a sneaky bastard too."

5. "The Linux philosophy is 'Laugh in the face of danger'. Oops. Wrong One. 'Do it yourself'. Yes, that's it."

6. "Some people have told me they don't think a fat penguin really embodies the grace of Linux, which just tells me they have never seen a angry penguin charging at them in excess of 100 mph."

7. "Intelligence is the ability to avoid doing work, yet getting the work done."

8. "When you say, 'I wrote a program that crashed Windows,' people just stare at you blankly and say, 'Hey, I got those with the system, for free.'"

9. "I don't doubt at all that virtualization is useful in some areas. What I doubt rather strongly is that it will ever have the kind of impact that the people involved in virtualization want it to have."

10. "Now, most of you are probably going to be totally bored out of your minds on Christmas day, and here's the perfect distraction. Test 2.6.15-rc7. All the stores will be closed, and there's really nothing better to do in between meals."

here’s a rumour that slimmer (up to 50% thinner) MacBooks will see daylight in October. The rumour says that it will be “half the thickness of current models (which would be quite the feat) and they’ll be made from new plastics/materials“. Pretty neat, if it’s true.

Philippine Tarsier

Thanks Wikipedia

The Philippine Tarsier is a tiny animal, measuring about 4 to 6 inches (15 cm) in height. The small size makes it difficult to spot. The average mass for males is around 134 grams, and for females, around 117 grams. The average adult is about the size of a human fist and will fit very comfortably in the human hand.

Like all tarsiers, the Philippine Tarsier's eyes are fixed in its skull; they cannot turn in their sockets. Instead, a special adaptation in the neck allows its round head to be rotated 180 degrees. The large membranous ears are mobile,^[7] appearing to be almost constantly moving, allowing the tarsier to hear any movement. It has uniquely large eyes (disproportionate to its head and body), which are listed in the Guinness Book of Records as the largest eyes on any mammal. These huge eyes provide this nocturnal animal with excellent night vision.^[8]

For the past 45 million years, tarsiers have inhabited rainforests around the world, but now they only exist on a few islands in the Philippines, Borneo and Indonesia.^[5] In Bohol, the Philippine Tarsier was a common sight in the southern part of the island until the 1960s. Since then, the number has dwindled to as few as an estimated 1000 still left in the wild.^{[citation needed]} Once protected by the humid rainforests and mist-shrouded hills, these mysterious primates struggle to survive as their home is cleared for crop growing.

Starbucks to close 500 more shops

Coffee chain Starbucks plans to shut 500 stores in the US on top of the 100 closures it had already announced.
Up to 12,000 full and part-time jobs will go, although Starbucks will try to move staff into other stores.
While it is closing underperforming stores, the company is still opening new US outlets, although it is cutting back from 250 to 200 next year.
Starbucks opened many stores in areas which have since been hard-hit by the housing slump such as Florida.

Mobile phones 'more dangerous than smoking'

Brain expert warns of huge rise in tumours and calls on industry to take immediate steps to reduce radiation

By Geoffrey Lean
Sunday, 30 March 2008

Mobile phones could kill far more people than smoking or asbestos, a study by an award-winning cancer expert has concluded. He says people should avoid using them wherever possible and that governments and the mobile phone industry must take "immediate steps" to reduce exposure to their radiation.

The study, by Dr Vini Khurana, is the most devastating indictment yet published of the health risks.

It draws on growing evidence – exclusively reported in the IoS in October – that using handsets for 10 years or more can double the risk of brain cancer. Cancers take at least a decade to develop, invalidating official safety assurances based on earlier studies which included few, if any, people who had used the phones for that long.

Earlier this year, the French government warned against the use of mobile phones, especially by children. Germany also advises its people to minimise handset use, and the European Environment Agency has called for exposures to be reduced.

Professor Khurana – a top neurosurgeon who has received 14 awards over the past 16 years, has published more than three dozen scientific papers – reviewed more than 100 studies on the effects of mobile phones. He has put the results on a brain surgery website, and a paper based on the research is currently being peer-reviewed for publication in a scientific journal.

He admits that mobiles can save lives in emergencies, but concludes that "there is a significant and increasing body of evidence for a link between mobile phone usage and certain brain tumours". He believes this will be "definitively proven" in the next decade.

Noting that malignant brain tumours represent "a life-ending diagnosis", he adds: "We are currently experiencing a reactively unchecked and dangerous situation." He fears that "unless the industry and governments take immediate and decisive steps", the incidence of malignant brain tumours and associated death rate will be observed to rise globally within a decade from now, by which time it may be far too late to intervene medically.

"It is anticipated that this danger has far broader public health ramifications than asbestos and smoking," says Professor Khurana, who told the IoS his assessment is partly based on the fact that three billion people now use the phones worldwide, three times as many as smoke. Smoking kills some five million worldwide each year, and exposure to asbestos is responsible for as many deaths in Britain as road accidents.

Late last week, the Mobile Operators Association dismissed Khurana's study as "a selective discussion of scientific literature by one individual". It believes he "does not present a balanced analysis" of the published science, and "reaches opposite conclusions to the WHO and more than 30 other independent expert scientific reviews"

Are Dairy Products Good For Your Health?

By Dr. Ben Kim on January 27, 2005
Healthy Eating Resources
Before my parents immigrated to Canada more than three decades ago, my mom was convinced that one of the benefits of living in Canada was the amount of cow's milk that was available. Back in Korea, moms, dads, and grandparents of all ages were sure that their babies and grandchildren could be bigger, stronger, and healthier if they could only have easy access to milk.
That generation's belief in the remarkable health value of milk was most probably rooted in their admiration for the physical strength and healthful appearances of American soldiers stationed at military bases around the country following the Korean war.
While Korean soldiers ate rice, kim chee, and den jang (miso) soup for breakfast, American soldiers enjoyed milk, cereal, toast, bacon, and eggs. It was natural and partially correct for many Koreans to conclude that the difference in size and strength was due to the foods that Americans ate.
In much the same way that American influence caused baseball to become a fixture in Korean culture, milk became a symbol of all things bigger and better in the land of the morning calm.
I was born one year after my parents immigrated to Toronto, Canada. My mom chose not to breastfeed me because she was sure that cow's milk would be far better for my health and future. She was just one of likely hundreds of millions of people around the world who considered milk to be the ultimate health food.
Today, the number of people around the world who consider milk to be a healthy food choice is most probably in the billions. True, there are relatively small groups and communities who are well aware of some of the problems with eating dairy products, but there is no denying that a large percentage of the world's population still believes that milk does a body good. Heck, if Dr. Phil is going to appear in ads wearing a milk mustache, how can the general public believe otherwise?
Let's get to what matters. Are dairy products good for your health?
Most milk that is found in grocery stores is terrible for your health for the following reasons:
It comes from cows that are fed high-protein soybean meal and growth hormones to increase production. Both increase a cow's risk of developing mastitis, liver problems, and pituitary gland problems, leading to frequent doses of antibiotics. Clearly, regular exposure to synthetic growth hormone and antibiotic residues is not congruent with experiencing your best health.
Conventional milk is pasteurized, a process that exposes milk to high temperatures and results in the following:
Denaturing of milk proteins, making them less usable and even harmful to your body
Destruction of enzymes, one of which is phosphatase, an enzyme that helps your body properly absorb the calcium found in milk
Destruction of vitamins B12, B6, and C
Destruction of friendly bacteria
Some conventional milk is homogenized, a process that forces healthy fat in milk through a fine straining device, which allows homogenized milk to be consistent in texture and taste rather than have globules of fat float to the surface. The problem with homogenization is that it can alter healthy fat and cholesterol in milk in such a way that they are more susceptible to forming free radicals.
Milk can be a healthy food choice if it meets the following criteria:
It comes from old-fashioned cows like Jerseys and Guernseys, not modern Holsteins that have been bred to produce such large quantities of milk that they typically have pituitary gland problems that result in large amounts of hormones being present in their milk.
It comes from cows that have been allowed to eat foods that are natural to them: grass when it is available, and green feed, silage, hay and root vegetables during colder months.
It is not pasteurized. Pasteurization was first used in the 1920s to kill micro organisms that caused tuberculosis and other diseases that were related to unsanitary production methods. With modern day controls in place to ensure clean and safe production, transportation, and storage of milk, the disadvantages of pasteurization far outweigh the advantages.
It is not homogenized.
The Weston A. Price Foundation has an excellent website called realmilk.com that provides more information on what constitutes healthy milk and where to find it.
Even if you can find a local source of healthy milk, it's possible that it may not be a healthy choice for you. Many people are unable to properly digest milk because they lack an enzyme called lactase, necessary to break down lactose, the natural sugar in milk. Some people have a difficult time digesting casein, a major protein found in milk. Ongoing exposure to casein that is not properly broken down has been linked to chronic ear infections, nasal congestion, acne, eczema, a variety of autoimmune illnesses, and even cancer.
Fermenting or souring healthy milk to form yogurt, kefir, and clabber helps to breakdown lactose and predigest casein, making these foods healthy choices for many people. Please keep in mind that yogurt and kefir found in most stores is made from unhealthy milk. At the very least, you should make sure that store-bought yogurt and kefir are made from organic milk.
Butter contains very little lactose and casein, which makes it another good choice for many. Butter made from healthy, unpasteurized milk is best, but varieties made from organic, pasteurized milk are acceptable choices for most people.
Cheese is highly concentrated with casein, so should only be eaten by those who don't show signs of intolerance to casein. It is best to eat cheeses made from healthy milk, and to completely avoid processed cheese which contains hydrogenated oils and harmful emulsifiers, extenders, and phosphates.
Please note: The guidelines in this article can be used to choose healthy goat's and sheep's milk and their derivatives.
For more information on milk and milk products, I recommend that you read Nourishing Traditions: The Cookbook that Challenges Politically Correct Nutrition and the Diet Dictocrats, by Sally Fallon, or visit realmilk.com.

Milk

My husband is Korean and like many Asians cannot tolerate milk. I was raised in the South and milk was a constant thing at the table. I've become a vegetarian and have eliminated dairy from my diet. I don't miss it, I now drink soy milk and feel much better.

I miss dairy, but not the side-effects
Submitted by Lisa C on August 8, 2007 - 17:28.
I have loved all dairy products my whole life. I've also had chronic fatigue and been susceptible to depression my whole life. Four months ago I started a diet that required me to eliminate sugar, yeast, processed foods, and dairy products. I have been feeling better and better since starting the diet. Recently, I eased up a bit on the diet and started allowing myself some dairy products such as milk. I would allow myself one serving per day. I noticed a pattern that every time I had milk, a felt a little sick and my energy level went down. It's clear to me that I shouldn't have milk--it's not worth it, even though it tastes so good!

Milk
Submitted by John Bristow on August 8, 2007 - 17:15.
I can't help but believe that comsuming milk of any type is not wise. What other mammal comsumes milk after it is weaned? Shouldn't this be our clue? Is this really a healthy process? There are many other foods out there that are better for us than milk and dairy products. There is also the consideration of the inhuman way that cows and other milk bearing animals are treated.

The benefits of raw milk
Submitted by Rod Newbound, RN on February 17, 2008 - 18:38.
Dear Dr. Kim,
When I read your latest newsletter on the subject of pasteurized I skimmed it so quickly that I failed to note you included the word "pasteurized". I didn't realize you weren't condemning all cows milk until I followed your link to the actual article.
Since I grew up on a farm where we milked our own cow, I learned the joy of rich cream filled raw milk early in life. We also made our own butter and cottage cheese. Despite your statement about your mom thinking cows milk was better than breast fed, I'm not convinced this was a common trend. I was born in 1950 and was certainly breast fed - according to one family source for 3 years!
After I left the farm, I found it more and more difficult to find raw milk, and finally started avoiding pasteurized milk altogether. It wasn't a conscious decision, I found it didn't satisfy me and just didn't care for it.
Glad to see you included links to give people more information about raw milk.
Thanks,Rod
