Upon arriving home this morning, the critters were there to greet me. As usual, Norton's attitude was "Boy oh boy! My friend is home! Yippie! Yea! Joy oh joy! Hooray!" The cat was no doubt thinking, "Oh, good. Breakfast!"

Hi Peverel,
If it is already boiled, just eat it! In this case less is more!

Cold with mayo on the side. A nice white, not too tasty, or cyder. Beer would be wonderful also. Good appetite.

Yes... I've been using Firefox...even though Safari is faster than Firefox there were a few small quirks... the main one was middle clicking opened a new window rather than tab (no setting to change it).

Now that chrome is released and the LastPass, XMarks, Ad Block extensions are available I figured I'd give it a whack. It also runs my greasemonkey scripts so I can have FFixer installed.

This may be my new default browser.

Safari makes it hard for me to add images in MR. Now it's the default for the iPad. I think I'll try to find out if there's something else.

"New Science Sheds Light on the Cause of Alzheimer’s Disease" by Elizabeth Agnvall.

http://www.aarp.org/health/condition...TRL-52810-F1-1

"The new theory gaining traction in the scientific community is that in Alzheimer’s the brain is destroyed not by sticky plaques—long held to be the culprit—but by floating clumps of protein. In fact, the sticky plaques that coat the brain cells of those with Alzheimer’s may be the body’s way of protecting against these deadly clumps—the way an oyster forms a pearl to protect against an irritating grain of sand, according to one researcher."

There could very well be a breakthrough soon. Let's hope!

There are related articles on science blogs.
So is that a Vent or a Rant? .....oh.....oops......wrong thread......


Thanks Tom, great stuff!
