POPSA House Fit for a Hobbit? Why are we doing this? 1.It's fun 2.Our society is almost entirely dependent on the availability of increasing amounts of fossil fuel energy. This has brought us to the point at which our supplies are dwindling and our ecological catastrophe. We have no viable alternative energy source and no choice but to reduce our energy consumption. The sooner this change can be begun, the more comfortable it will be.

POPSElectronic Waste- Highly Toxic Most of Europe's and Americas e-waste is send off to far away first nations already under extreme strain, and as a result poison those who live and work around our phones and TV's etc. No mandatory recycling demanded by our western leaders. Take responsibility with all you buy and consume. Change politicians,get mad,act consequent.

POPSFarewell paper news and newspapers. Digital news sources - aggregators - are replacing now our old habit to open newspaper with morning cap of coffee. When you can see video clips on podcasts and youtube and read about something from numerous sources directly on your mobile phones - you will leave newspapers, magazines and even books in elusive past. Now the problem only are a quality of those sources and their tailoring to the needs of each of us. One of possible solution could be comprehensive chart in the end of article and sizable incentives for concerned readers.

POPSThe Great Depression Hoax Are we a nation of whiners, as Phil Gramm put it a little while ago? No, the American public is not whining...More likely, though, Americans are just leaving the whining to pundits and trend reporters. Our problem is not whining. It is persuading young people that, with baby boomers retiring, entitlement programs bulging and the world economy growing ever more competitive, now's the time to roll up the sleeves for something other than tattoos. For example, India produces 2.5 million college graduates every year (with concentrations in high demand fields - electronics, programming, engineering, accounting, etc.), and approximately 90,000 MBA's. Nothing against tattoos, but I do feel ignorance and apathy are much too prominent in America. Awareness of ignorance is the first step to wisdom.

POPSK Streeters Bring About a Little Bipartisan Comity To "Mile-High City" Home Run. More than two dozen corporations and associations rented out Coors Field, home of the Colorado Rockies, for the day on Tuesday, giving Members, lobbyists and little kids the chance to take in some batting practice on real major league grounds. The highlight of the day: Rep. Heath Shuler (D-N.C.) hitting one out of the park. Like any good ballgame, the event featured beer and burgers — all courtesy of a long list of sponsors. They included Citi, Consumer Electronics Association, BNSF Railway, AT&T, AstraZeneca, Amgen, American Chemistry Council, Brown Rudnick, Blue Cross and Blue Shield, Wine & Spirits Wholesalers of America, U.S. Telecom, Qwest, Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America, National Association of Manufacturers, Lilly, Koch and Comcast. The names of those sponsors rotated throughout the event on the scoreboards.

POPSPioneering Research in Neuromorphic Electronics that Function Like the Biological Brain The HRL team's ultimate goal is to build a low-power, compact electronic chip combining a novel analog circuit design and a neuroscience-inspired architecture that can address a wide range of cognitive abilities--perception, planning, decision making, and motor control. In the initial two phases of the SyNAPSE program, the team will translate the neuronal and synaptic functions of the biological cortex into similar microelectronic functions.
