POPSSpitzer's parallax Another NASA orbiting telescope, this one is in a larger orbit than the Hubble telescope. Using parallax , it gives astronomers "depth perception", making it easier to more accurately estimate the distance to far objects.

POPSZooming into the Pelican Nebula Astronomy Picture of the Day This short film is awesome. Truly an amazing vision. This really makes me regret not buying a telescope and all the accessories for photography when I could afford it. But observing vicariously is second best.

POPS$54 Million Dollar Pants Law Suit Begins This is not a "civil suit", this is criminal harassment and racketeering. This judge is obviously not capable of rational thought regarding his own actions; how then can he be trusted to sit as a judge? Disbarrment at a minimum is required in this case. Personally, I think that there must be a way to prosecute him for criminal mis-use of the US court system, harassment, or something else.

POPSConquer yourself Conquer yourself. This is one of the most difficult tasks that I've ever attempted to take on. It is a continuing challenge. Someday I will succeed; I only hope that it is in this lifetime.

POPSRoald Dahl (1916-1990) A man that had a wonderful imagination. Belongs in the hearts of children of all ages, everywhere. *edit* oops. The link to the audio file didn't work. You'll have to link directly to the page: http://www.poetryarchive.org/poetryarchive/singlePoet.do?poetId=7177#

POPSParis Hilton out of prison for medical reasons All that I can say is..... Unbelievable. If she really did have a VALID medical condition, it would have kept her out of jail in the first place. So much for ".. and justice for all" on an equal level. The perks of the "aristocracy"... If Paris were a young black male from the south side of Chicago, the jail sentence would have stood at the original sentence. disclaimer: I am not a young black male from the south side of Chicago, nor am I a communist, marxist, or any other political "-ist". I'm just a "regular guy".

POPSTake a look in the mirror I have to admit that this (looking in the mirror) can be difficult sometimes; at least it can be for me. Like many others, I've got some unpleasant "skeletons in my closet", but I am struggling to exorcise those demons. Recognizing our own past can make this short poem rather poignant.

POPSMicrotrends: Printing in 3D Pretty interesting. I've seen this stuff before in the CAD/CAM world, but this article has links to info about building your own... Sounds like a good weekend project.

POPSDam Threatens Ancient Buddhist Stone Carvings Another case of modernism destroying history. I know nothing of politics, science, economy, etc., and I'm sure that this dam will be a major boon to the country of Pakistan and it's citizens, but the country's (and the world's) history needs to be saved, rather than destroyed.

POPS84,000 reasons to visit Malaysia's biggest Buddhist show If only I could travel. If only. This show looks to be a wonderful event. Jointly organized by 50 Buddhist societies nationwide, the festival will be the largest undertaking in the history of Malaysian Buddhism. A big electric Padal, a 40 foot mandala (an amazing amount of work!), a giant Buddha footprint, etc.
