A new study has revealed that a humble slice of cheese eaten every day is particularly beneficial for the elderly for it acts as a carrier for pro biotic or "friendly" bacteria, the 'Daily Express' reported.

The Financial Times and the Wall Street Journal were both carrying full-page "We Love Apple" adverts on Friday morning, but the space was not bought by the Californian technology giant but by Adobe, the web technology firm that is locked in a bitter dispute with Steve Jobs.
The adverts, using a variant of the famous "I love New York" motif created by Milton Glaser, have appeared in newspapers including the Wall Street Journal and San Jose Mercury and online on websites including Wired and TechCrunch.
They present the latest front in an increasingly nasty war between the two companies. Adobe's web video technology Flash is not supported by Apple's iPad or iPhone and Jobs has publicly criticised it for causing battery problems and crashes.

Facebook's privacy policy is a whopping 5,830 words long. As the New York Times recently pointed out, the Constitution of the United States is just 4,543. In recent months, Facebook has made revisions to its privacy policy that makes a growing amount of information public by default; users must opt out if they want to keep their information private, or share it only with a trusted group of friends.
The changes have caused something of a backlash among both the user community and the technology industry, with some commentators questioning whether these changes are the thin end of the edge, and may even result in users leaving the social-networking site in their droves.

Winning a mate used to depend only on physical prowess and men with the strongest jawline and thickest skulls were better able to survive onslaughts from love rivals.
That meant that over time all men developed thicker bones in the jaws, around the eyes and on the forehead than women.
They also developed a greater proportion of muscle to fat than women and became taller than women, said the study,

IPL Parties Dark side ???

My problem with the IPL Nites parties was not that I was forced to attend by any contractual obligation. There was no such thing for me, or, to my knowledge, for any of my fellow India players.
Each party was invariably the same routine. You would have a set-up with a ramp show that lasted 30 to 45 minutes, then the models would come off and mix with the rest and the party would take off.
There were cheerleaders and girls who we called 'escort service'. Beautiful women to add glamour to the mix, get the party moving. They were not allowed to talk to any player for more than five minutes. If they did, a manager would walk up and slickly move her away.

Rod Beckstrom, chief executive of ICANN, said only 8 or 9 per cent of ipv4 addresses were left, and companies needed to switch to the new standard of ipv6 as quickly as possible.
"We are running out," he told Reuters in an interview. "That move really needs to be made, we're seeing this scarce resource run down." Ipv4, used ever since the Internet became public in the 1980s, was created with space for only a few billion addresses, whereas ipv6 has trillions.

Self-made billionaire Larry Ellison has built Oracle Corp into one of the world's most powerful technology companies through a series of ambitious acquisitions.

Q. Now that you're selling both software and hardware, what is your acquisition strategy?
A. You will see us make acquisitions in almost every area. Maybe not so much database anymore, though even around the peripheries of the database. You will see us make acquisitions in storage, networking, all sorts of low-level software management tools and applications in a great variety of industries.

In a major breakthrough which may pave the way for a permanent cure for deafness, scientists claim to have discovered the "Holy Grail" of hearing loss.
An international team, led by Stanford University School of Medicine, has actually found a way of re-creating the sensitive "hair cells", which are vital for hearing, using stem cell technology. And, according to the scientists, the finding could lead to a way for deaf people to regenerate their own inner ear sensory cells to cure the condition.
