POPSMan Made Life Whoa. The implications from this will be enormous. If this project succeeds expect a concerted campaign of denial and attack from the religious conservatives.

POPSPolice Atrocities Define The Bush Police State
"If you've ever publicly opposed Bush's war of naked aggression in Iraq, you can bet you're in NSA's database, called TALON. War protesters, naturally, were the first to wind up in Big Bro's TALON, or database. This practice most certainly goes far beyond Nixon's 'enemies list'. Bush's database, methods, scope and ruthlessness plops us in Orwellian territory." Well, it's too late now. I'm probably already screwed and plopped and TALON'ed and monitored... END THE OCCUPATIONS! ------------------------- talon: \ˈta-lən\ Middle English taloun heel, hind claw of a bird of prey , from Anglo-French talun, from Vulgar Latin *talon-, *talo, from Latin talus ankle, anklebone 1 a: the claw of an animal and especially of a bird of prey b: a finger or hand of a human being 2: a part or object shaped like or suggestive of a heel or claw: b: the shoulder of the bolt of a lock on which the key acts to shoot the bolt 3 a: cards laid aside in a pile in solitaire

POPSComputer memory gives booting up the boot If you turn the computer off, the programs, files and applications stop at the same time, as they are. They don't have to be loaded every time the computer starts. Looks like all of the electronics textbooks will have to be rewritten. This new circuit element seems almost the electronic equivalent to finding another color. It's properties will mean it will probably play a big part in the design of circuits that will give the tech revolution another twist.

POPSA Little Welcome Home from the Torture Masters "As they ridiculed me, they took delight most in mocking letters I had received from readers in England. I had now been without food and water and the toilet for 12 hours, and having been made to stand, my legs buckled. I vomited and passed out. All I remember is one of them gouging, scraping and clawing with his nails at the tender flesh beneath my eyes. He scooped my head and dug his fingers in near the auditory nerves between my head and eardrum . The pain became sharper as he dug in two fingers at a time. Another man had his combat boot on my neck, pressing into the hard floor. I lay there for over an hour. The room became a menagerie of pain, sound and terror."

POPSBoot United Nations Now!
cont: Here you have an open-and-shut case of a rogue, dictatorial regime kidnapping and holding hostage innocent soldiers...soldiers that were not in Iranian waters when they were apprehended. The Brits have the GPS data to prove it. One of the sailors is a woman, making the situation all the more outrageous. On top of all this, Iran is parading the soldiers on TV...in direct violation of the Geneva Convention. And what does the UN do? Nothing. Why? Because the UN is anti-American, and that makes it anti-Brit. It's time for not only the United States to pull out of the United Nations but for us to kick them out of the United States. Let's form another international organization composed of countries with elected governments that adhere to principles of economic freedom and guaranteed rights for their citizens. The UN? Give it Haiti. The two deserve each other. The left always tells us we need the U.N. as a place for countries to settle international disputes. Tell me just one

POPSThe Arrogance of Uneducated Liberals An acquaintance of mine says PhD stands for "piled higher and deeper". I know a lot of purportedly highly intellegent and educated people who don't have enough sense to pour piss out of a boot. But I'll grant these "mental giants" one thing - - they have boundless quantities of pomposity and arrogance. Some fo the qualities possessed by the divine candidate, B. Hussein Obama

POPSBritish Judge That Slammed Gore Film Exposed Far from being an impartial jurist, Burton it turns out appears to be a reactionary conservative who has earned praise from the far-right, anti-immigrant British National Party for his ruling in 2005 that applied the nation’s Race Relations Act to cover the racial rights of White people. Hailing what it called Judge Burton’s history-making ruling, the BNP said, This now means that any organizations or companies that discriminate against a member of the British National Party are guilty of anti-white racism. The right-wing in America will stop at nothing these days to protect the profits of corporate polluters and since they have no scientific credibility at all with which to deny the man-made effects of global warming on this planet, they can only pull out the Karl Rove playbook and seek to attack the messenger. I can’t wait for the doctored 8x10 glossies of Al Gore and Britney. You know that’s coming next.
