POPSMale menopause? Yes, it’s real Andropause is a medical condition, diagnosed with a blood test by a physician that reveals testosterone levels below a certain level. If a diagnosis of andropause is warranted, treatment with testosterone replacement may be an option, depending on a man’s health history. However, the biggest, and most misunderstood, symptom of declining testosterone is a decrease in libido. Testosterone is truly the hormone that stokes the flames of desire. Many men confuse andropause with erectile dysfunction (ED), because they often occur around the same time. These men often turn to an ED medication, such as Viagra, to improve their erectile ability, which works for a time in most cases. However, as men get older, the gap between desire and arousal widens and many men become deeply disappointed when Viagra doesn't give them the desire to have sex. That's because Viagra doesn't boost testosterone levels.<<

POPS Somali Pirates To Acquire CitiBank The pirates will finance part of the purchase by selling new Pirate Ransom Backed Securities. The PRBS’s are backed by future ransom payments from hijackings in the Gulf of Aden. Moody’s and S&P have already issued their top investment grade ratings for the PRBS’s. Head pirate Ubu Kalid Shandu said, “We need a bank so that we have a place to keep all of our ransom money. Thankfully, the dislocations in the capital markets have allowed us to purchase Citigroup at an attractive valuation and to take advantage of TARP capital to grow the business even faster.” Shandu added, “We don’t call ourselves pirates. We’re coast guards. This will just allow us to guard our coasts better.”

POPSFugitives from justice don't get to dictate the terms of their case
More: Documentarians should have a wide leeway to argue their case the way they want, but there's a point at which ethical lines are crossed. Zenovich…seems to have been blinded by her contact with Polanski. Here's an example: The word "sodomy" is briefly referenced in Zenovich's documentary, but it's a somewhat ambiguous term, and it's never explained. Zenovich has fun flashing bits of the victim's grand jury testimony on the screen, but she never gets around to using this exchange from that testimony, which was made public in 2003 and published by the Smoking Gun: "Then he lifted up my legs and went in through my anus." "What do you mean by that? "He put his penis in my butt." …she also said that she had repeatedly told Polanski no, but that she was too afraid of him to resist. It's a drag to include a scene of anal rape of a 13-year-old in your moody documentary about such a Byronic figure, but it's also fairly relevant.

POPSScarborough's looniness: "pure, straight socialism" Why the Obama plan is not charity, and why this kind of tax refund is the most effective at stimulating the economy. Back to high school, Joe. Socialism is about government ownership of the means of production, not about tax refunds!

POPS My Obama Yard Sign Is Proof of Citizenship ~ Mark Steyn By the way, the argument that giving money to Obama is ipso facto proof of citizenship also clears up any question marks over those donations by "A Hitler" and "S Hussein". Congratulations! Oh, and if you want to know why The Boston Globe's parent company ( The New York Times) has been downgraded by Moody's to junk status, ask yourself why this story is in a foreign newspaper three thousand miles away rather than the local rag. Congratulations to my old comrade from the Conrad Black trial, James Bone, for doing the job Americans (or at least their media) won't do.

POPSEconomists Back Obama's Stimulus As always, the GOP's view of economics are Hooverish and insane. Even some Republican economists agree: "I think it's a reasonably well-designed package," said Mark Zandi, the chief economist for forecaster Moody's Economy.com and a former adviser to the presidential campaign of Republican Arizona Sen. John McCain. "I would make the package bigger . . . increase the package to over $1 trillion," Zandi said. Of course, McCain himself is opposed , but he was never known for listening to his advisers. Well, other than Phil "nation of whiners" Gramm .

POPSDream Symbols These symbols and meanings are taken from a variety of sources but primarily from my own dreams and the dreams of associates. You must take into account the probability that some of these might be my own personal symbols which have been substituted for the universal or cultural symbols. This is caused by having a life experience with something which becomes more powerful in your subconscious memory banks than the universal symbol being given it by the superconscious. I have tried my best to sort my symbols into universal and personal symbols and hope that I have made at least a good start on it. But you must test them on your own dreams to see if they make natural common sense in the context of the dream. My advice is to never accept an interpretation...even from yourself...until you are sure that you have arrived at the correct meaning.

POPSMoodys Warns U.S. Aaa Rating In Danger if it doesn't reduce the debt - either with taxes or cutting expenditures. Notice they gave the administration "3-4 years" so as to allow for an Obama re-election before raising taxes. Then it's all hell breakin' loose for taxes. Either that or let the rating fall and apologize for the fact that we ever had a Triple-A in the first place and appeal to our "empathy for those nations that never had top rating. This would also fit into the progressive p.r. agenda.

POPSSixth Straight Month of Job Losses The piece goes on: "We had thought that the rate had temporarily overshot in May based on problems seasonally adjusting the summer inflow of students into the work force," Nigel Gault, the chief U.S. economist for forecaster Global Insight in Lexington, Mass., said in a research note to investors. "But the unemployment rate for young workers was little changed this month, suggesting that they are simply facing a much weaker labor market than in previous years." This shoots Labor Secretary Elaine Chao's argument that the job market reflects teen workers all to hell.

POPSFuneral no time for "altar call" " A: The “altar call” is one of the most distinctive and controversial elements of evangelical Christianity. It was “invented” about 150 years ago by American evangelist Charles Finney and popularized by Dwight Moody and especially Billy Graham. The people who come to the altar say a sinner’s prayer and accept Jesus as their Lord and savior."
