What is causing my Kernel Panic?

My macbook pro 15 inch (8,2) have recently been freezing up and asking me to restart. This usually happens when I'm surfing the web. I originally thought it might be Flash that's causing the problem becuase it was happening during youtube videos, so I reinstalled flash and the problem still persists. Sometimes the browser just crashes (firefox and chrome) and I simply restart it again. Sometimes the computer just restarts by itself. Somtimes its not even during a flash based video/task.


The only component that I've upgraded is my RAM, which is now 2 x 4 gb 1600 MHz DDR3 GSkill. (but i doubt that is causing the problem since I've installed it several months ago.)


Can anybody help me read the log and pick out the problem?


Here is the most recent log:
