POPSTo whom it may concern: I resign More: I want to return to a time when life was simple. When all you knew were colours, multiplication tables, and nursery rhymes, but that didn't bother you, because you didn't know what you didn't know and you didn't care. All you knew was to be happy because you were blissfully unaware of all the things that should make you worried or upset. I want to believe in the power of smiles, hugs, a kind word, truth, justice, peace, dreams,the imagination, mankind, and making angels in the snow. So.... here's my cheque book and my car keys, my company badge, my credit card bills, and all 32 of my computer passwords. I am officially resigning from adulthood. And if you want to discuss this further, you'll have to catch me first, cause, TAG!! YOU'RE IT!!

POPSMap of Every McDonalds’s in the Country I just finished reading ‘Don’t Eat This Book’ by Morgan Spurlock (the guy who did Supersize Me http://freedocumentaries.org/film.php?id=98 ) . I will NEVER eat fast food again. It is truly scary what food processors do to our food and what they do to it again to make it palatable. Of course, McDonalds tries to down play Spurlock’s ‘prank’ by criticizing that he ate 5,000 calories per day and did not exercise. The problem with that logic is that there are people who do the same thing. According to Eric Schlosser, author of Fast Food nation, his research indicates that in 2001 there were about 30,000 McDonalds and says they open about 2,000 a year. So that means there are probably more like 47,000 McDonalds today.in the U.S.

POPSBeef recall after cow abuse investigation This story and the one below about fluffy chicks being ground up alive makes me feel ashamed to be part of the human race. How anyone could sit down to a leg of lamb knowing that a gentle creature had to suffer and be deprived of its life merely to satisfy 5 minutes of a human desire to eat flesh is beyond me. "Man in his arrogance thinks himself a great work. More humble, and I believe true, to consider himself created from animals." Charles Darwin.

POPSMcDonalds has a website for African Americans "Deeply Rooted in the Community®!" And the corporation registered that trademark catch-phrase. "Hey black folk, we gave you high-sugar, high-salt imitation food that even microbes won't eat (at affordable prices), obesity, diabetes, and low-wage, dead-end jobs . Have a website."

POPSAmerica: From a Russian Perspective
First, the population was dumbed down through a politicized and substandard education system based on pop culture, rather then the classics. Americans know more about their favorite tv dramas then the drama in DC that directly affects their lives. They care more for their “right” to choke down a McDonalds burger or a BurgerKing burger than for their constitutional rights. Then they turn around and lecture us about our rights and about our “democracy”. Pride blindth the foolish. Then their faith in God was destroyed, until their churches, all tens of thousands of different “branches and denominations” were for the most part little more then Sunday circuses and their televangelists and top protestant mega preachers were more then happy to sell out their souls and flocks to be on the “winning” side of one pseudo Marxist politician or another. Their flocks may complain, but when explained that they would be on the “winning” side, their flocks were ever so quick to reject Christ in hopes

Even our Holy Orthodox churches are scandalously liberalized in America. The final collapse has come with the election of Barack Obama. His speed in the past three months has been truly impressive. His spending and money printing has been a record setting, not just in America's short history but in the world.

POPSDead Benefits! Many jobs are gone forever - When the benefits run out even the McDonalds and Truck Washers will be overstaffed. Many will have to make due on Minimum wage, go nowhere jobs. As the benefits dry up people are going to get desperate.

POPSInspectors to watch McDonalds pricing Regulations, the curse of the exploiter. The fact that a franchise owner went public on the way price rises are set. The main targets are low income areas. Research has shown these areas are most likely not to change habits.

POPS"Boycott Israel" good-conscience campaign
"Unfortunately the zionists have control of the media throughout the world, they have usurped our name, the star of David, everything, all our symbols, the name - the Jewish state they call it, everything they have taken, and we have very little power to be able to speak up. We have God - that's the greatest power.." Rabbi Yisroel Dovid Weiss Neturei Karta, Jews against Zionism. RAMADAN CAMPAIGN: BOYCOTT ISRAELI DATES Did you know that every Ramadan, Europes Muslims are unknowingly bankrolling the suffering of their brothers and sisters in Palestine? Every year at Ramadan Israel especially produces an early crop of dates in time for Ramadan which with the collaboration of Muslim shops serving the Muslim community in this country it sells to Muslims who unaware break their fasts with stolen dates - grown on land stolen from the Palestinians, making a mockery of their faith. The ethical purchasing decision however is frustrated by the lack of accurate information as to which co

POPSGoogle's Secret "Carbon Footprint" & Energy Consumption Google is secretive about its energy consumption and carbon footprint. It also refuses to divulge the locations of its data centres. However, with more than 200m internet searches estimated globally daily, the electricity consumption and greenhouse gas emissions caused by computers and the internet is provoking concern. A recent report by Gartner, the industry analysts, said the global IT industry generated as much greenhouse gas as the world’s airlines - about 2% of global CO2 emissions. “Data centres are among the most energy-intensive facilities imaginable,” said Evan Mills, a scientist at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in California. Banks of servers storing billions of web pages require power. The ramifications of this are pretty profound for the rest of us, as well. No longer does anyone have to wear a fur hat or eat at McDonalds or drive a V8 to tick off the handwringing concernalists.
