Google Chrome - More Popular Than Internet Explorer

In Europe however, Firefox is ahead of both Chrome and Explorer. Firefox is also dominating in Africa. The real reason for the high Chrome traffic is due to South America.

Horse Rescued From Ocean


An Arabian horse was spotted two miles offshore the coast near Santa Barbara. The 6 year old horse was spooked by ocean waves crashing on the shore. It is valued at $150,000. Her owner said that instead of running from the waves, she swam two miles out to sea. The animal stayed floating despite its tail which was wrapped around one of its legs for almost 3 hours. A rescue crew managed to save it. The horse was exhausted and had water in its lungs, but is going to be fine.

Mother Arrested After Taking 5 Year Old Daughter Tanning

Patricia Krentcil, mother of a 5 year old little girl living in New Jersey denies all charges of bringing her daughter in to go tanning. The little girl showed up at school with a horrible sunburn and when asked about it, her teacher overheard her say that she went tanning with mommy. School officials alerted the police. Her mom denied the claims and blamed it on a sunburn from outside. The law prohibits children under 14 years of age to be allowed in the tanning booth. Patricia Krentcil admitted to letting her daughter in the room but still stands firm that she was never exposed to the actual tanning bed. After much questioning, police still believe that Patricia Krentcil's daughter did go tanning with her mother. She was released from jail but charged with felony child endangerment and a $25,000 bond.
