POPSIran vs Israel: What The Media Wants You To Forget 6. Contrary to face-saving claims, it appears that the US and Israel were both caught off guard by Iran's announcement. The reasoning is simple. Had the US or Israel announced the existence of he new facility before Iran's notified the IAEA, it would have put Iran on the defensive. As it is now, the US and Israel seem to be playing catch up, casting doubt on the veracity of Israel's claims to "know" that Iran is a nuclear threat.

POPSPopulation, Arithmetic and Energy Since we're now being told, that oil reserves are far more depleted than they chose to tell us, this video is more relevant than ever. It may seem boring at first, but believe me, it isn't. Anyone with a basic understanding of arithmetic will know, that we're headed for some hard times ahead and not too far off into the future, either. Please watch all 8 parts. It's worth it.

POPSFull of Stars - Turin Brakes One of the most dreamy, "let's just fly" and "let go of the lies of this world" type music... which is why it is one of my favourites... because when I listen I am always amongst the stars... What a gift of the "artist"...

POPSCrying Over Dead Trees - How Ignorant!!!!
My comment begins in the clip... it finishes here... I never thought I could BE an emotional hippie and it is something I wouldn't do in a group - but the emotions these people are expressing is no less than what I felt, when that jungle that "had been my friend and a friend to the native wildlife" that I loved, got decimated. No wonder the earth is as "in a state of crisis as it is" we really don't care, we are so "disconnected" to the life force that flows through the natural habitats of not just one species (human) but millions bacteria, insects, minerals, trees, animals in all their sub groups. I AM angered by "human belief" that we are the most important species on this planet and no other life form matters as long as humans survive. I would gladly leave this planet, if all I had to look forward to was humans, humans and more humans and their neurotic pets, all the neuroses, psychoses, their lack of harmony within themselves and hence the planet - Give me an "injectio

POPSInterview With Russell Peters & A Relevant Skit for Now "I don't talk about religion. I just refuse to just cause it's much of a volatile situation for everybody, everybody in every religious denomination is real touchy about that subject and you know what, I am not a religious person myself, so who am I to say who is right or wrong or make my opinions be known about anything. I just stick to culture and race and the way it affects us in today's society." Russell Peters. The interview is after this skit...

POPSA Kilo of Metal Removed From A Peruvian Man's Stomach Now "he is being examined by mental health specialists". I wonder if he was practicing to get into a circus or some kind of "freak show". I have read about people who allegedly could eat metal - don't ask me where or even when I read that, it is all mixed it with the other zillions of bits of trivial information that gets collected in my brain. :-)

POPSCrosseyed And Painless - Talking Heads In a number of other youtube videos he mentions a few times how "the body knows" before the head. He "feels" his singing through his body. I can totally relate to this. Your body knows and gives you feedback before you can intellectualize why?

POPSRoss Perot Jr Haggling to Finish Off the Rhino He Shot That Got Away "White rhino (Ceratotherum simum) are considered a conservation-dependent species and are classified as Near Threatened by the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. Intense efforts have increased the population from fewer than 100 in 1895 to approximately 17,500 today. Supporters of trophy hunting claim it is a viable method for “managing” the white rhino population. The practice also brings in tourism dollars and helps fund conservation efforts. Many others oppose the notion of trophy hunting, pointing out that killing an animal to get a thrill - and acquire a stuffed head for one’s wall - is not an acceptable “sport”." Apparently his son Hill Perot got his trophy, "white rhino head".

POPSThe First Video Footage of the World's Most Elusive Cat "Andrew Hearn and Joanna Ross, researchers from the United Kingdom’s Global Canopy Programme’s Bornean Wild Cat & Clouded Leopard Project, have been surveying five species of wild cats of Borneo for several years. Their work has uncovered some remarkable findings. Besides capturing the world’s first ever video of the rare cat, the two are also credited for snapping the first photograph of a live bay cat. Based in the Tabin Wildlife Reserve in Sabah, camera trapping and radio-tracking methods are utilized in their research. The program also provides educational materials, community surveys and training courses as well. " (from the article)

POPSBye for a While Clipon couldn't resist this clip... More than that though, I really am just getting more and more frustrated with my connection on clipmarks. It is still very temperamental and popping, comments etc just aren't getting through. I read the clipmarks blog - it seems they are planning an overhaul. So, I might just have to give this a break for a while and hopefully it will sort itself out. I can't seem to find out what the problem is with my connection. It is not happening with amplify. So see you at some stage in the future. Thanks for all your great posts, fun interactions et al.
