POPSBush Administration: Fox in the Henhouse What is this? The White House asked him twice to resign? Maybe they didn't say pretty please. Sorry, not good enough, if you want to get rid of someone like this and you ask them to resign and they don't, you fire them.

POPSInterview: Robert Schimmel Despite his being an insufferable prick, the interview somehow is sufferable. A very interesting interview. He's an ass, but he doesn't hide it.

POPSNatrual Resources: Going Beyond Panaceas
Many scholars have mapped Hardin's ideas onto a range of human–environment systems and have predicted dire consequences for their long-term viability unless his first solution, government ownership, is imposed. Even though >100,000 areas around the world are formally protected, and the effectiveness of many of these areas is unknown, some advocates still call for further efforts to create protected areas as the only way to protect biodiversity (11, 12). Others argue that "the only way to avoid the tragedy of the commons in natural resources and wildlife is ... by creating a system of private property rights" (ref. 13, p. 467). Marketable permits continue to be presented as the optimal method for solving free-rider problems and for providing effective common-pool resource management (14–16).** Furthermore, collaborative approaches involving community participation are frequently "portrayed as a cure-all," to the distress of researchers who work in the field (ref. 26, p. 382).
