Scientists Say a Dirty Child Is a Healthy Child 331

Researchers from the School of Medicine at the University of California have shown that the more germs a child is exposed to, the better their immune system in later life. Their study found that keeping a child's skin too clean impaired the skin's ability to heal itself. From the article: "'These germs are actually good for us,' said Professor Richard Gallo, who led the research. Common bacterial species, known as staphylococci, which can cause inflammation when under the skin, are 'good bacteria' when on the surface, where they can reduce inflammation."

Palm Pre: Touchphone from Palm->

Submitted by Garette
Garette writes "Just got an email from Palm about their upcoming touch-screen phone "Palm Pre". As taken from the Pre website:
"Meet Palm Pre, a phone that's always thinking ahead to make your life easier. Pre pulls your different online calendars into one view, bringing you the information you want without having to search for it. Pre links your contacts from different sources, giving you one place to find what you need. And Pre delivers incoming messages1 and notifications in an intuitively subtle way, letting you react or respond however you want. People, events, information that matters. With Palm Pre, it'll come to you."
I had a Palm PDA a few years ago. I liked it but have since moved over to using a BlackBerry. What do fellow users think of the current and this upcoming Palm Phone when compared to BlackBerry Storm, iPhone etc...?"
