POPSSwine flu jab link to killer nerve disease: Leaked letter It refers to the use of a similar swine flu vaccine in the United States in 1976 when: * More people died from the vaccination than from swine flu. * 500 cases of GBS were detected. * The vaccine may have increased the risk of contracting GBS by eight times. * The vaccine was withdrawn after just ten weeks when the link with GBS became clear. * The US Government was forced to pay out millions of dollars to those affected. Concerns have already been raised that the new vaccine has not been sufficiently tested and that the effects, especially on children, are unknown. Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk Worrying

POPSFlight nightmare and Continental could care less Their customer service is non existent. Go to their web site and notice how no link what so ever to contact anybody. Just link and link to pages that only offer more menu's. How convenient. This is not isolated event. did google search on continental airlines complaints and some of the stories are outrageous. But i guess until the general public is aware of how they could care less for the customer they keep getting business. And that is all they care about. My solution is if you can't get them online then call their 800 number and voice your opinions of them. Sooner or later the CEO may get complaints from his cronies about all the calls and have to address the issue.

POPS15 building tips for new sites New websites need links to develop any sort of search engine visibility. Links pointing to a new website can get it indexed and help it to start ranking for low to medium competition long tail keywords. These keywords will send visitors searching for information on a specific topic to your website and allows you gain a new reader or make some money from whatever affiliate program or ad scheme you are running. I’ve recently set up several websites for some friends and link building was my main concern because I needed links for the webpages to be indexed and start showing up in the search engine.

POPSThis company may harm your Internet - Google intercepts this link
Mid sized article at source. It is well worth a read as it offers an insight into Google and its (mal)practices. "Google accidentally labeled every single link as "harmful" for nearly an hour" When and how did a private manage get such absolute control over our internet? Google is one of the biggest threats to our Freedom Of Speech and Freedom of Choice online. All under the pretense of protecting peoples computers... What a joke, the fact that a website may or may not contain malware will not stop me from wanting to use such a site. After all, why else would you use Anti-Malware if not to protect from such things? It is Glaringly obvious that the real buisness of this "service" is to restrict the internet to those sites that only Google approves of. Please if you value your internet, your free speech and freedom of choice then BOYCOTT GOOGLE on a mass scale by removing all programs and search engines and toolbars that relate to it.

POPSDeathBoy's "ToRights" album for free and LEGAL download From the man himself: "The whole album IS, as far as I'm concerned, Public Domain. But, if you like it, please do burn CDs, copy it to friends' iPods, link to us… it's totally fine if you don't buy the music, but if you can take a few seconds to link us / friend us / hook us up, that helps and is appreciated."
