This is from TED.

In this short talk, Arianna Huffington shares a small idea that can awaken much bigger ones: the power of a good night’s sleep. Instead of bragging about our sleep deficits, she urges us to shut our eyes and see the big picture: We can sleep our way to increased productivity and happiness — and smarter decision-making.

Firefox takes top browser spot in Europe: StatCounter

HELSINKI (Reuters) – Mozilla’s Firefox browser has overtaken Microsoft’s Internet Explorer as the leader in Europe, the first time Microsoft’s browser has lost its top spot in a major market, a web analytics firm StatCounter said.

In December, the open-source Firefox took 38.1 percent of European market share, while Internet Explorer’s share slipped to 37.5 percent. Google Chrome saw its share rising to 14.6 percent from just 5.1 percent a year earlier.

“This appears to be happening because Google’s Chrome is stealing share from Internet Explorer while Firefox is mainly maintaining its existing share,” Aodhan Cullen, StatCounter chief executive, said in a statement.

Once and for all.

$_SERVER['REDIRECT_URL'] is dead in PHP. Use $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] instead.

Dont know which PHP version and configuration depreciates REDIRECT_URL, but afaik its old as dinosaur and comes from HTTP_SERVER_VARS superglobal. so obviously times change and caravan moves on.
