POPSPresident Barack Hussein Obama - Reality feels like a dream I am laughing with joy and crying. I've cried so much, even during McCain's speech. Another dream fulfilled - the dream since I was eight years old. I wish my mother was alive. She ran away from the Jim Crow south shortly after her first cousin, my cousin, a man named Huey was tortured and lynched. Thanks everyone who helped make this dream come true. I love you all.

POPSObama Gives Victory Speech: Hundreds of Thousands in Chicago Awesome... Frigging awesome. (I guess it can be found on YouTube tomorrow) Black leaders from the Civil Rights struggle days of Martin Luther King have been on TV. They all say the same thing: They never thought they would live to see such a day. And with pride say that now their children can see pictures of a black family in the White House. And this is all they wanted, every wanted: equality, full participation in America, to see their story as fully integrated and seen as part of the American story. And then, these old hardened men, they cry.

POPSRepublican Party in Shambles After Massive Losses.
Along with Obama's LANDSLIDE VICTORY, great gains have been won by the Democrats in both the House and Senate -- the greatest gains in over 80 years (since the Great Depression & FDR's election). The Democrats now have a large majority in both the House and the Senate and the White House. It's a sea change. (Note: Because it's part of the story > Some Republican SmearHeads have started to tell the TV audience what Obama should do -- and said that within a few months the Democrats will be fighting among themselves) Other TV pundits told these Republicans they should wake up and smell the coffee, look to see what they could possibly do to put their broken party back together -- that Obama didn't need their advise and there were no difference between the Democratic House, the Democratic Senate and future President Obama. SmearHeads - Yuck. LANDSLIDE VICTORY -- That's the real story: major epic awesome historic victory. (I hate to even mention the SmearHeads words.,, b

POPSWhy we stand in line to vote - a historical photo essay Over the last few days when looking at the photographs of people standing in line at early voting sites across the country, I've been reminded of so many pictures I've seen of election lines before - lines of voters from throughout the world, voters who have had to fight for the fundamental right to vote, voters for whom standing in line is perhaps the easiest part of everything they've had to do to bring about change. … So when I think about whether we'll have to wait in long lines on Tuesday, I'm not intimidated. I know that we won't be standing in those lines alone, we'll be accompanied by the history of millions of people a whole lot braver and tougher than we'll ever need to be to stay in line for a few hours.

POPSInvention: Self-replicating materials Experiments on colloids have proved that self-replication is possible, they say. By tagging colloid particles with a range of DNA coatings that fluoresce at different wavelengths, they were able to see how a mixture gradually turned into a collection of ordered lines of particles after a self-replicating "seed" structure was added." This ir really a potential breakthrough! slowly science fiction looses its fiction part :)
