POPSResearchers Explain the Destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah Searching for Sodom and Gomorrah - http://www.bib-arch.org/e-features/sodom-and-gomorrah.asp "As suggested by Amos Frumkin in his May/June 2009 BAR article on the salt pillar known as Lot’s Wife, the Sodom story told in the Bible likely represents an ancient memory of a single catastrophic event that affected the cities and peoples of the Dead Sea region nearly 4,000 years ago." Really interesting article.

POPSMcCain's Better Half, Number Two
Cindy McCain, played a role in the Keating Five S&L scandal, and just as her husband was rehabilitating his reputation, she was caught stealing drugs from her nonprofit organization to feed her addiction to painkillers. She has a fortune that sets the McCain's apart from most other Americans, a problem in a presidential race that hinges on economic anxieties. She can be imprecise: she has repeatedly called herself an only child, for instance, even though she has two half-siblings. Those close to her say she aspires to be like another blonde, glamorous figure married to an older man: "Diana, the Princess of Wales" . Carol McCain, (1st Mrs) worked in the Reagan White House as an event planner. She had stood by her husband during his captivity in N. Vietnam, never passing word of her debilitating car accident, (more about her... http://www.snopes.com/politics/mccain/carol.asp ) a few years after their reunion, McCain told her, he was leaving her for a younger, richer woman.

POPSThank You America – And Damn You, You Bastards This religion aims to destroy Iraq and return it to the days of minority rule.

America allowed Shias to ... DougM has it - says Go read it.

POPS. . . The Prosecution Rests . . . . zzzzzzzz The news is still sinking in throughout the community, including the city council, where members say he's good at his job. But Jeffersonville City Council President Connie Sellers says "it is very embarrassing when you say you find the city attorney in a garbage can. I can't set my morals to his - I mean he is an excellent attorney - what he does in his personal life ... it's his personal life." "Sometimes smart people do things you wouldn't expect them to do," said City of Jeffersonville Spokesperson Larry Thomas."You've got a smart guy who made a bad decision." We called Wilder to get his side of the story, but he didn't call us back before this story ran. Police tell us no charges are expected to be filed although Sellers says the City Council could meet to discuss this issue shortly. http://www.wave3.com/Global/story.asp?S=10558830
