POPSUnity at Last: Democrats Join Calls for Napolitano to Step Down Following Failed Attack " New Jersey State Senate President Richard Codey, a Democrat, wrote a letter to Napolitano this week calling on her to step down. He said Napolitano, an attorney and former Arizona governor, does not have the experience for the post she is in. "We should have someone who doesn't need to go in there and learn about terrorism, learn about security," Codey told Fox News. " Ok, well, if Codey really means that, shouldn't OBAMA be on his way as well???

POPSWhy Did he get that prize? To be fair I think Obama's prize should be criticized based more on what he hasn't done than on what he has. He hasn't done much.

POPS"In Search of a Real Spaceship"
More from the article below: "We forget today that the Shuttle system was so advanced every other existing space power wanted one. The Europeans called theirs Hermes. The Russians Buran. Japan was designing the Hope space plane. Germany had a really radical design named after space pioneer Eugen Sanger. But alas what they all discovered was a winged vehicle was a complex design whose development would require a lot of cash-and patience. Both were in short supply. So America would wind up flying alone aboard space wings. The Shuttles would wind up doing many incredible things-among which was saving the Russian Mir space station, because the orbiters brought up more water, food and supplies that a dozen Russian Progress supply ships could carry. They deployed satellites. Returned a few back home. They were-and are-without match in the short history of human spaceflight. But, for now, think of spacecraft worthy of following our Shuttles. We don't need any stinkin' capsules!"

POPSTwitter Community does it again: a workaround to share conversations with EVERYONE. I'm continually amazed at the resourcefulness of the Twitter community. They are determined to use the service the way they want, not just the way the tweet gods say they should. This is one of the more recent, always clever examples of the community taking matters into their own hands. This idea fills a need as the blogger notes: "it’s equally important to engage with new connections from by a trusted personal network of people handpicked by you."

POPSbikehacks: Illuminate your bike — for free! More: How I came to acquire this stash of reflective material (self-adhesive 3M-type stuff) was by contacting a shop that does signs (like highway exit signs, marking guardrails, etc.) and asked if they had any scraps they’d otherwise be tossing out. They said to come by and I got several 8×10 sized pieces for FREE! I started cutting the pieces to fit various parts of the bike – starting with items like fenders, and eventually working to the frame, fork, rear rack, and wheels. Since then I’ve been experimenting with making wheel (spoke) reflectors using the bottoms of microwave pasta dishes as backing material. There’s one pic of a drop-bar old 10-speed I installed one of these experimental wheel reflectors on – it’s on the rear wheel, zip-tied to the spokes.
