POPS10 Incredible Recordings I feel that I should advise that a couple of the items here are quite horrific and I would recommend that those who are weak of heart or who have a nervous disposition avoid them. The items I am referring to are marked in the text. The items are not in any particular order as it is very hard to rate the historical importance versus the just plain weird value.

POPSSoundscapes An unclippable site you need to hear is www.wildtracks.be . I'm just starting on exploring phonography, soundscapes, audio 'meditation' as a means of improving concentration, and slowing down. I got the free audacity sound editor from the web, and recently got access to a brilliant piece of digital recording gear, the Zoom H2 which is capable of 4 channel recording at high quality WAV or MP3, about the size of an electric razor, and retailing at c. £UK150.

POPSFound ! Oldest recording of human voice The inventor 'recorded' the song 17 years before Edison, but he was never able to play it back. He wanted to study it. The recording was played by getting high resolution digital scans, and converting them into sound at the Lawrence Berkley, National Lab using equipment used to preserve, and gain access to a wide variety of early recordings.

POPS'Bin Laden' tape harangues Obama "If you stop the war, then fine. Otherwise we will have no choice but to continue our war of attrition on every front If you choose safety and stopping wars, as opinion polls show you do, then we are ready to respond to this," it says. In the message, the al-Qaeda leader accuses the new president of failing to fundamentally change foreign policy because of his decision to retain key figures from the previous administration, including Defence Secretary Robert Gates.

POPSJohn McCain To The American Worker:”You Can’t Do It My Friend” He boils us all down to a stupid stereotype, personified by someone pretending to be something he's not and bases his campaign on talking down to the American worker. He is part of the American aristocracy with nothing but contempt for the American worker. Don't he fooled by a smile and a pat on the back "my friends" because you'll find a knife in your back as soon as he gets what he wants. Joe the Plumber was make up by John the bullshitter

POPSPutting The Card Back in The Deck for Future Use
No, what could be most damning would be the release of the audio recording of the incident itself. We would hear if Professor Gates was being reserved and collected while this white racist cop went over the line and victimized him, OR would we hear Sgt. Crowley being professional while Gates was in full big mouth, elitist, race-baiting mode? If so, that audio would be all over the world by now. The fact we haven’t heard it yet tells me someone doesn’t want the black mayor of Cambridge who apologized to Gates, the black governor who also insulted the Cambridge PD, the esteemed professor from Harvard, or the president embarrassed. Would a casual beer between the guys be construed as a putting all differences aside, thus putting that recording in the can for good? Should that happen, race pimp Gates will have been spared the humiliation due, and he really needs have a Tawana Brawley comeuppance moment. If he is allowed to walk away after defaming an officer of

POPSNavy version of Iranian boat conflict unravels; Tape comments were spliced in; no motor noise in backgound; Iranians hailed US ship; objects in water were never thought to be dangerous; small boats incapable of damaging ships; no threats or hostile actions happened; US ships were not alarmed. Despite spectacular and erroneous media coverage, none have offered corrections, leaving impression of threat in American public mind. Bush uses it to stiffen anti-Iran rhetoric. Best comment on story: "What happened to the skier?"

POPSWhere the hell is this cash gonna come from??? You and me, the working idiots that allow this crap to continue. Did ya catch 60 Minutes last night??? If exposing a covert CIA agent isn't treason (and it is) why ain't that enough to get these jerks outta office? The American way is goin' up in smoke and these bastards are laughin' all the way to the bank. I'm gonna be sick..........

POPSDog Dials 911 After Owner Suffers Seizure "Buddy, he basically gives me my independence," Stalnaker said during an interview. "He's my world. He's my best friend, no question. He's always there, and I just hope I can be as good to him as he's been to me."

POPSScarlet Pimpernel of Iraq: Dead and Alive, AGAIN?! Fools rush in where angels fear to thread! With all the LIES that the Bushites willingly accepted, would they never learn and hold their judgement. Wishing does NOT make it true, even if you believe that god is on your side. Just remember that George also spoke with god, or vice versa, but he was always wrong. Is this guy alive? Who care. Does he exist might be the question? "In July 2007 a US military spokesman said Baghdadi was a fictional character designed to put an Iraqi face on a terror group" Maybe this time they are right. God knows they created enough boogiemen to know. What's the point of the clip then? Don't rush to judgement, especially when your judgement is totally suspect based on your past clips!!!

POPSMedieval & Renaissance music - listen online Lots of music here; good selection. Unfortunately it's all RealMedia presentations. But the quality is decent. Update : The links in the clip won't work, unless you're at Columbia. However, if you go to the original page, many of the links further down on the page will work. I didn't notice when clipping that some of the .rm files are protected, but many others aren't.

POPS"Texas Tea Party" Held Over Through Friday From Amanda Carpenter at Townhall: I can tell you, this is going to be a full-week assault. A GOP aide showed me a week-long schedule of GOP floor speaking dates on energy while the rest of Congress is on their 5-week taxpayer paid vacation. I'll try to share that schedule with you later. If your congressman isn't on it, you should give their office call! Update: The #dontGo feed on Twitter has become de facto Update Central, but your options for following along (despite the lack of audio or video recording equipment) continues to grow, including: * Live blog at minority leader John Boehner's site * The Facebook * The YouTube Channel Update: Oil just dipped below $120 per barrel for the first time in 3 months Update: During the occasional press conferences, Minority whip Roy Blunt has just made it pretty clear that the fun will continue at least throughout the week.
