POPSLate Night Monkey Business OK, the David Letterman Top Tens are piling up. Here’s mine, posted on Twitter last night while the show was being aired. So I’m claiming the first: ”No 10. Because he can really bossanova.” “No. 9. Has writers for his pickup lines” “No. 8. Because behind that wrinkly American Gothic exterior pounds the heart of an irresistible love monkey.” “No. 7. Hey, lots of women like ‘em old, rich and married. Heh heh.” “No. 6. What are you going to do, impeach me?” “No. 5. Because Leno has the cars, and I needed an expensive hobby.” “No. 4. Because the Obama administration isn’t funny enough. Heh heh heh. Ba-dum-dum.” “No 3. Because I don’t like broccoli. Ha ha!” “No. 2. This has bin a test of the Emrgncy Paparazzi System. It was only a test. If this had bin a real paparazzi emrgncy … heh” “And No. 1. My cardiologist ordered me to get more exercise. Heh heh heh. Exercise. More of it. Heh heh. Ba-dum-dum”

POPSHow the Irish were viewed in Victorian times
"These ideas were not confined to a lunatic fringe of the scientific community, for although they never won over the mainstream of British scientists they were disseminated broadly and it was even hinted that the Irish might be the elusive missing link! Certainly the "ape-like" Celt became something of an malevolent cliche of Victorian racism. Thus Charles Kingsley could write I am haunted by the human chimpanzees I saw . . . I don't believe they are our fault. . . . But to see white chimpanzees is dreadful; if they were black, one would not feel it so much. . . ." (Charles Kingsley in a letter to his wife, quoted in L.P. Curtis, Anglo-Saxons and Celts, p.84). Even seemingly complimentary generalizations about the Irish national character could, in the Victorian context, be damaging to the Celt. Thus, following the work of Ernest Renan's La Poésie des Races Celtiques (1854), it was broadly argued that the Celt was poetic, light-hearted and imaginative, highly emotion

POPS Orangutan ruse misleads predators more: Co-author Madeleine Hardus, from the University of Utrecht in the Netherlands, told BBC News: "This study clearly indicates that the abilities of great ape communication have been traditionally undervalued and that there may be traces of language precursors in our closest relatives, the great apes." She added that the findings suggest that primate calling behaviour is not purely based on instinct, but instead is socially learned.

POPSAll the Monkeys Ain't in the Zoo Yes, of course I know that a chimp is an ape. I like this big guy.. He's got a lot of spunk. I love how he took away the keeper's gun! I just hope that he isn't punished for this escapade.

POPSChimps do get "AIDS," study finds at the Lincoln Park Zoo in Chicago. At Gombe Stream National Park in Tanzania researchers collected observational data and, from chimps that had died, tissue samples. Feces and urine tests pinpointed which living chimps were SIV positive. SIV is spread via bodily fluids, during sexual contact and probably during birth, Lonsdorf said. The virus may also spread through biting and fight wounds, she added—"which will be the topic of further study over the next several years." At the outset of the study, there was little sense that anything was wrong with the SIV-positive chimps, said Lonsdorf. Then the researchers began noticing the much higher death rate among the SIV-positive chimpanzees. And infected females, it turned out, were much less likely to give birth. When they did, their babies had a very low chance of survival. Hope for Fighting AIDS in Humans? "We can learn a lot about disease mechanisms by studying the same disease in different species''.

POPSWhy Michelle Obama's Vogue Cover Matters Copies are selling on eBay at three and a half times the cover price. There are reports of shortages, with people desperate to get their hands on a copy. The issue is even making headlines around the globe in India, England, South America, and Australia Traditionally, Vogue has thrown a spotlight on very few faces of color. In the last decade, only five covers have featured blacks: Oprah in November 1998, Halle Berry in December 2002, Liya Kebede in May 2005, Jennifer Hudson in February 2007, and Lebron James in April 2008. And during the past 80 years, only 18 of Vogue’s covers – that’s less than 2% — have featured black women. Annie Liebovitz photographed Jennifer Hudson. I guess Annie didn't like her subject.

POPSDid an Obama judicial nominee really express a preference for Allah over Jesus? No, but that didn't stop Gingrich from lying about it and wignuttia to go ape$#@! over it. Compare what Newt said versus the clipped section: "You have Obama nominating Judge Hamilton, who said in her ruling that saying the words Jesus Christ in a prayer is a sign of inappropriate behavior, but saying Allah would be OK. You'll find most Republican senators voting against a judge who is confused about whether you can say Jesus Christ in a prayer, particularly one who is pro-Muslim being able to say Allah."
