Firefox speed-up Really works:-
First open your fire fox and type "about:config" in your address bar.
It will open the configuration page of firefox.
There you search for the following elements and change the values accordingly.
The elements are
Code:
browser.tabs.showSingleWindowModePrefs – true
network.http.max-connections – 48
network.http.max-connections-per-server – 16
network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-proxy – 8
network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server – 4
network.http.pipelining – true
network.http.pipelining.maxrequests – 100
network.http.proxy.pipelining – true
network.http.request.timeout – 300
One more thing… Right-click somewhere on that screen and add a NEW -> Integer. Name it “nglayout.initialpaint.delay” and set its value to “0”. This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it receives. Since you’re broadband - it shouldn’t have to wait.
Now you should notice you’re loading pages MUCH faster now!

Microwave Oven - Be careful
A 26-year old guy decided to have a cup of coffee. He took a cup of water and
put it in the microwave to heat it up (something that he had done numerous times before).
I am not sure how long he set the timer for, but he told me he wanted to bring the water to a boil.
When the timer shut the oven off, he removed the cup from the oven.
As he looked into the cup, he noted that the water was not boiling,
but instantly the water in the cup 'blew up' into his face.
The cup remained intact until he threw it out of his hand
but all the water had flown out into his face due to the build up of energy.
His whole face is blistered and he has 1st and
2nd degree burns to his face, which may leave scarring.
He also may have lost partial sight in his left eye.
While at the hospital, the doctor who was attending to h! im stated that this is fairly common occurrence
and water (alone) should never be heated in a microwave oven.
If water is heated in this manner,
something should be placed in the cup to diffuse the energy such as: a wooden stir stick, tea bag, etc. !
It is however a much safer choice to boil the water in a teakettle.
General Electric's (GE) response:
Thanks for contacting us. I will be happy to assist you.
The e-mail that you received is correct.
Micro waved water and other liquids do not always bubble when they reach the boiling point.
They can actually get superheated and not bubble at all.
The superheated liquid will bubble up out of the cup
when it is moved or when something like a spoon or teabag is put into it.
To prevent this from happening and causing injury,
do not heat any liquid for more than two minutes per cup.
After heating, let the cup stand in the microwave for thirty seconds before moving it or adding anything into it.

AIDS - Latest News
It's in INDIA -karnataka - Bangalore
A 10 year old boy, had eaten pineapple about 15 days back, and fell sick,
from the day he had eaten. Later when he had his Health check done...
doctors diagnosed that he had AIDS.
His parents couldn't believe it....Then the entire family under went a
checkup... none of them suffered from Aids. So the doctors checked again
with the boy if he had eaten out...The boy said "yes". He had pineapple
that evening. Immediately a group from Mallya hospital went to the
pineapple vendor to check.
They found the pineapple seller had a cut on his finger while cutting the
pineapple; his blood had spread into the fruit.
When they had his blood checked....the guy was suffering from AIDS...but he
himself was NOT aware. Unfortunately the boy is suffering from it now.
Please take care while u eat on the road side (particularly tasty vada pav
