No problem.
RSS is an XML format used for syndicating news and similar content from online news sources. An RSS feed is a regularly updated XML document that contains metadata about a news source and the content in it. Minimally an RSS feed consists of a channel that represents the news source, which has a title, link, and description that describe the news source. Additionally, an RSS feed typically contains one or more item elements that represent individual news items, each of which should have a title, link, or description.
In computing, phishing is a criminal activity using social engineering techniques.[1] Phishers attempt to fraudulently acquire sensitive information, such as usernames, passwords and credit card details, by masquerading as a trustworthy entity in an electronic communication. Ebay and Paypal are two of the most targeted companies, and online banks are also common targets. Phishing is typically carried out using email or an instant message,[2] and often directs users to a website, although phone contact has been used as well.[3] Attempts to deal with the growing number of reported phishing incidents include legislation, user training, and technical measures.
The Beta coefficient, in terms of finance and investing, is a measure of a stock (or portfolio)’s volatility in relation to the rest of the market. Beta is calculated for individual companies using regression analysis. (See Investing below)
The beta coefficient is a key parameter in the capital asset pricing model (CAPM). It measures the part of the asset's statistical variance that cannot be mitigated by the diversification provided by the portfolio of many risky assets, because it is correlated with the return of the other assets that are in the portfolio.
It means something is new and requires test for full functions.
You are welcome.

RSS - Really Simple Syndication
RSS is an acronym, which stands for Really Simple Syndication and sometimes it is also referred to as Rich Site Summary. It is essentially a tool you can use to have news related headlines and announcements, delivered directly to you, rather than having to go look for it. RSS makes use of a certain code that constantly scans a website for updated content and then broadcasts those updates to all subscribers through a feed. These RSS feeds will contain the Date, Title, a Brief Description of the content and a Link to click on to read more of the article.
More and more sites are now offering RSS feeds, which can be identified by a small orange button that says either or - However, if you click one of these links, you will most likely get a page full of code in your browser. Therefore, you will need one of the free RSS readers listed below to properly read the feed.
phising- The act of sending an e-mail to a user falsely claiming to be an established legitimate enterprise in an attempt to scam the user into surrendering private information that will be used for identity theft. The e-mail directs the user to visit a Web site where they are asked to update personal information, such as passwords and credit card, social security, and bank account numbers, that the legitimate organization already has. The Web site, however, is bogus and set up only to steal the user’s information.
What is beta software?
After an initial round of in-house testing, software publishers often release new programs to be tested by the public. These pre-release versions are called beta software, usually denoted by a "b" in the version number, e.g., Netscape Navigator 2.0b5. Since the publisher couldn't possibly test the software under all possible conditions, it is reasonable to expect that wider use of the software may uncover problems that were not discovered during in-house testing. The publisher expects to be notified when users find such problems so that the program can be fixed before its official release.
In general, you should expect to run into bugs whenever using any piece of beta software. These bugs may range in severity from minor features that don't work to problems that cause your computer to crash. You should decide whether the benefit of new features in a beta program outweighs the risk of program instability before choosing to use a piece of beta software. You should also be aware that UITS will not have thoroughly tested beta software, nor will the software be guaranteed by its maker, so you should not expect the same level of support as you would receive for an official release version of the program.

A beta version or beta release usually represents the first version of a computer program that implements all features in the requirements analysis. It is likely to be useful for internal demonstrations and previews to select customers, but unstable and not yet ready for release.

RSS feeds are a relatively new feature, allowing you to access webpage content on your cool video cellphones that each day, take steps into Internet access.
Phishing is means identity theives use to snag personal info about you by sending out those ridiculous emails asking you to either reply back and / or reply by "confirming" issue by giving them private information you possess. Once you do that, however, such information quickly becomes THEIRS....and that's your newest nightmares.
Beta? Internet jargon for "new". Newly programmed / designed programs sometimes undergo weeks of "beta-testing" by select users who receive free copies of the program and report back any glitches they encounter to the programs designers. WARNING: this is also a savvy phishing tool scammers sometimes use; measure common sense when approached to be a beta tester.
