POPSIsrael vows action against settlers Who are they kidding? Those settlers are more extreme than the rest of Israel, including the old religious nutters. It can only result in a bloodbath if they go through with this. WW3 started by two Israeli tribes - bloody ironic.

POPSIsrael admits to organ thefts Ethics among Israeli doctors seems to have slipped. One could draw similarities from history that have been viewed badly. Considering the effort they put into belief of an afterlife, it seems a little hypocritical desecration is ok.

POPSGreen light for internet filter plans Most teens know about sites which will relay access to the banned sites. They use them at school to overcome the limitations placed by teachers. The firefox addon, "Web of Trust" should work for accidental visits by kids. Watching what the kids are using is difficult. Not many parents are not surprised by their children's antics at some stage. The govt thinks it has to be seen making an effort.

POPSA Giant Virus Discovery Trumps SciFi Some viruses become so large that other viruses can infect them, tiny super-specialized parasites piggy-backing their genetic code on their huge cousins. Others simply fail, their patchwork genomes not up to the challenges of the environment. The Marseillevirus has stolen ten percent of its chromosomes from bacteria it once infected, and anther five percent from the amoebic host of the party. It's even infiltrated other giant viruses, taking parts of the mimivirus for its own purposes. Don't worry about any mass-media scare stories: this thing is no threat to us and there isn't a shred of evidence to suggest otherwise. Not that the latter necessarily affects the former.
