>Tackling these hidden and ad-related files should cut crashes and page "hangs" by up to 10%, he added.

>Statistics gathered by Mozilla showed a steep fall in the number of times webpages crashed when Google and Facebook stopped using Flash for video and replaced it with HTML-based code.

>He said the change would also make the Firefox browser more secure and could mean longer battery life on some portable devices.

M.Jackson: I'm not a sick, diseased pimp. Sure, I'd rape "your" sons and "your" nephews and "your" g.children but I'd never rape "my" sons or my nephews. Besides, I bought and whored your sons for $25 million.

B.Cosby: I'm not a sick diseased whore. Sure, I'd drunk, drug and rape "your" daughters, "your" mothers and "your" g.mothers but I'd never rape "my" daughters, my wife or my mother.

Don't rapists say the dumbest stuff.

>German Chancellor Angela Merkel, under pressure after two terror attacks by asylum seekers in the space of a week, said she was still convinced that Germany could handle the influx of migrants and refugees.

>Ms. Merkel repeated her “We can do it!” mantra that she first used last August as Germany was taking in thousands of asylum-seekers a day.

>“I am today convinced, as I was back then, that we can do it,” Ms. Merkel said, speaking at a news conference in Berlin after interrupting her vacation.

The patriarchy's days are numbered. Finally we can have some true equality **

Here is a video of the type of behavior that womyn have to put up with in this day and age.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1XGPvbWn0A

Absolutely horrendous. This needs to be a top priority for police. And based on that video, it should also be a hate crime for black people to talk to white people.
Thankfully Queen Hillary will soon be in charge in the US, and we can get this sort of protection for American womyn

** equality not applicable to men; Not only is misandry not a hate crime, it is a public service and encouraged

Ethan Dean will be living his dream on Tuesday.

The six-year-old has a garbage truck bedspread and pillow. He has garbage truck toys. He's had a garbage truck birthday party.

Now, thanks to the Make-A-Wish Foundation, he's going to experience what it's like to be a garbage truck driver. The boy who has cystic fibrosis will ride in a real garbage truck through downtown Sacramento, collecting trash and recyclables, just like he's always wanted.

When Ethan visited the Make-A-Wish Foundation in February, he was asked a series of questions: What do you want to be? Who do you want to meet? What do you want to have? Where do you want to go?

Almost all of his answers were garbage truck-related, said Jennifer Stolo, CEO of the local chapter of the Make-A-Wish Foundation. He really, really wants to be a garbage man when he grows up.

It meant the wish he'd be granted wasn't too mysterious.

"We pretty much knew it was going to be about garbage trucks," said Ethan's dad, Ken Dean, laughing. He's been watching them come down the street since he first learned how to crawl, his dad said.

Stolo and her team of "fairies" knew just what he wanted.

Tuesday morning at an outdoor assembly at his elementary school in Rancho Cordova, Ethan will discover his garbage man surprise. Then he and his partner will take off, stopping in five locations for garbage and recyclables, before ending at the Capitol for a press conference and VIP lunch.

Though he and his parents haven't had a big talk about his diagnosis, his dad said every once in a while Ethan asks him a question or two. He's begun to realize that his friends and younger sister don't have to go to treatment like he does.

"I want him to have fun and not have to worry about the day-to-day," his dad said. "It's all about him."

TOKYO – A former U.S. serviceman has been arrested in connection with the murder of a Japanese woman in a case that could have a major impact on U.S.-Japan relations.

Kenneth Franklin Shinzato, a 32-year-old former Marine, confessed to stabbing and strangling a 20-year-old office worker on the island of Okinawa, police said Friday. Her body was found dumped in a wooded area not far from a U.S. airbase where Shinzato works as a civilian employee, according to Kyodo News Service.

The sight of cockroaches may evoke disgust but they can be a boon for human health, said a team of scientists who have shown that milk protein crystals found in roaches can serve as a "fantastic" protein supplement.
The team of scientists, including those from the Institute for Stem Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine (inStem) in Bengaluru, has recently unravelled the structure of milk proteins crystals in the guts of a roach species called Diploptera punctata, the only known viviparous cockroach (which gives birth to live young).
A single crystal is estimated to contain more than three times the energy of an equivalent mass of dairy (buffalo) milk, according to the study by inStem's Ramaswamy group.
"The crystals are like a complete food -- they have proteins, fats and sugars. If you look into the protein sequences, they have all the essential amino acids," said Sanchari Banerjee, one of the main authors of the paper published in July in the journal from the International Union of Crystallography.
Now, armed with the gene sequences for these milk proteins, Ramaswamy and colleagues plan to use a yeast system to produce these crystals en masse.
"They're very stable. They can be a fantastic protein supplement," said Ramaswamy.
Furthermore, their crystalline nature offers a unique advantage. As the protein in the solution is used up, by being digested, the crystal releases protein at an equivalent rate.
"It's time-released food," explained Ramaswamy, adding "if you need food that is calorifically high, that is time released and food that is complete. This is it".
Besides their utility as supplemental food, the scaffolding in the protein crystals exhibit characteristics that could be used to design nanoparticles for drug delivery.

Marilyn Mosby via screengrab The Baltimore State’s Attorney’s Office has dropped all remaining charges against police officers related to the death of Freddie Gray.

Baltimore Sun reporter Kevin Rector just made the stunning announcement in a series of tweets earlier Wednesday morning.

Prosecutors appear to have made the decision to cut their losses after failing to obtain a single conviction in the cases to date. Three officers were acquitted at bench trials earlier this year and the trial of a fourth officer ended in a hung jury in December 2015. Baltimore State’s Attorney Marilyn Mosby and two of the courtroom prosecutors, Michael Schatzow and Janice Bledsoe already face calls for disbarment over the handling of the cases.
