    Well, the shutdown may be going well. I'm moving around the web a bit faster. Maybe some of the lemmings not being here helps the bandwidth.

    For those of you not observing shutdown, you should consider it. It makes surfing faster for those of us still here. LOL

    Top of the morning everyone. Still morning here. Beautiful day, so I'd best be out and about. Later.

    If I get mad, I'm justified, according to the horoscope. ;)

    We could use more shutdowns. I suggest another for next weekend. LOL

    GOOD MORNING

    NOTE:BE CAREFUL AS THIS OPENS ALL THE DEFAULT SETTING IN FIREFOX

    SET FIREFOX TO ALLOW 10 SIMULTANEOUS DOWNLOADS ..........Just like Internet Explorer, Firefox has a default to only allow you to download only 2 items at the same time. Changing this, is not as simple as going into your Preferences and changing a setting .....(free).....GO THERE!

    Set Firefox to Allow 10 Simultaneous Downloads

    Just like Internet Explorer, Firefox has a default to only allow you to download only 2 items at the same time. Changing this, is not as simple as going into your Preferences and changing a setting…

    To change this to allow 10 (or more) simultaneous downloads. Do the following:

    Open a new Firefox browser window.
    Then in the address bar type about:config then hit enter

    Next scroll down and locate the setting for:

    network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server

    Double Click on it and change the value to a 10 (or whatever you want)

    WHERE IS THE_FIEND WHEN I NEED HIM TO READ THIS...


    Angry faces can be good for the brain


    * 26 March 2007

    Testosterone-fuelled people seem to enjoy provoking anger in others. At least, that's the conclusion of a study looking at people's responses to angry faces and their levels of testosterone.


    Michelle Wirth and Oliver Schultheiss at the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor measured the testosterone levels of 70 young adults and then gave them a learning task involving tapping out a pattern of keystrokes on a computer. After each repetition of the task they were shown a face with either an angry or a neutral expression, which flashed onto the screen for a few milliseconds - far too briefly to register consciously.

    The researchers found that volunteers with high testosterone levels learned the keystroke pattern more quickly if they saw an angry face than otherwise. Those with lower testosterone levels showed no such difference (Physiology and Behavior, vol 90, p 496). In essence, the angry face acted as a reward to encourage learning in people with more testosterone, according to Wirth, who is now at the University of Wisconsin, Madison.

    Testosterone levels are known to be higher in socially dominant individuals. Such people may find angry faces stimulating because they could signal a challenge to their dominance. Alternatively, they may indicate a foe who has already been defeated or otherwise upset, thus reinforcing the viewer's dominant status, says Schultheiss.
    From issue 2596 of New Scientist magazine, 26 March 2007, page 21

    The population of this country is 300 million.

    -160 million are retired.

    That leaves 140 million to do the work.

    -There are 85 million in school.

    Which leaves 55 million to do the work.

    -Of this there are 35 million employed by the federal government.

    Leaving 15 million to do the work.

    -2.8 million are in the armed forces preoccupied with killing Osama
    Bin-Laden.

    Which leaves 12.2 million to do the work.

    -Take from that total the 10.8 million people who work for state
    and city governments.

    And that leaves 1.4 million to do the work.

    -At any given time there are 188,000 people in hospitals.

    Leaving 1,212,000 to do the work.

    -Now, there are 1,211,998 people in prisons.

    That leaves just two people to do the work.

    You and me.

    And there you are,

    Sitting on your ass,

    At your computer, reading jokes.

    Nice. Real nice.

    Life After Death



    A couple made a deal that whoever died first would come
    back and inform the other of the after life. The woman's
    biggest fear was that there was no heaven.

    After a long life, the husband was the first to go, and true to
    his word, he made contact. "Mary... Mary..."

    "Is that you Fred?"

    "Yes, I have come back like we agreed."

    "Well, what is it like?"

    "Well, when I get up in the morning I have sex, then I have
    breakfast, then I have sex again, then I bathe in the sun,
    then I have sex twice more, then I have lunch, then I have
    sex all afternoon and into the early evening, until bedtime.
    And, then, I start all over again the next day."

    "Oh Fred, you surely must be in heaven."

    "Hell no, Mary, I'm a rabbit in Kansas."
