Firefox Slow Reloading jQuery Page With Firebug Enabled
For a page that has jQuery interactions, a page using Firefox with Firebug enabled loads veeeery slowly when the jQuery interaction is activated. If you disable Firebug without reloading the page, the jQuery interaction responds normally. Enable Firebug again without reloading the page and this time the jQuery interaction improves.

WOT Book 12: 'The Gathering Storm"
The first book of a trilogy to end the Wheel of Time series written by the late Robert Jordan. Brandon Sanderson has taken the helm in writing the final books to recap this exciting saga of Rand al'Thor. I'm glad that they split up the books. I'd hate to see the end written in just one book especially since there seem to be a lot of characters in the book that deserve buildup.
My only qualm about this book is that they should have provided a character list from the major to the minor characters, those that are dead, and further categorize the cast by group like Aes Sedai, Aiel, Borderlanders, Forsaken, etc. They do have a Glossary but it's not as useful.
Overall the book was pretty exciting. It resolves one of the major Aes Sedai subplots and leaves a cliffhanger with Rand al'Thor. 'can't wait to read the next book!
