POPS mono-entreprises et "partenariats" Français à la botte ... ... et pendant ce temps nos Chefs de Gauche comme de Droite (Lyon, Gouvernement ...) imposent des "partenariats avec Microsoft" aux étudiants et enseignants du public ... tout en incitant les ingénieurs déclassés à créer leur mono-entreprise ... ( pourquoi les petits Français n'auraient-ils pas droit eux aussi à devenir des "MicroSerfs" ! cf Douglas Coupland ) ...

POPSIt shakes a village: What thousands of individual economic crises mean for an entire community
More: Through the Marin Housing Authority, Fatooh discovered three affordable housing complexes accepting applications -- then discovered a waiting list of three years. She phoned agency after agency, with no luck. Finally someone told her she'd have a better chance getting placed if she and the family spent three months living at a campsite. Meanwhile her repossessed house in Cazadero sits empty, she says. …The TV news reminds us every night: We're in a recession. But often the camera zooms in too tight: the single family facing eviction, the single worker laid off at the plant, the single patient unable to pay for cancer treatments. The panorama of such cases remains hazy: What does joblessness, foreclosure or lack of healthcare mean for entire communities? What happens to town after town of people like Kassy Fatooh? How does a multiplicity of stories like hers tear at the patchwork of agencies and services meant to hold our communities intact?

POPSDid you know processors start from sand? I must admit I never thought about it before seeing this. Also, I highly recommend going to the source and checking out the full picture story. It is a very cool step by step of the making of a processor.

POPSHelp Find The Father of Little August This is so funny. This video is a hoax. It was made by a Danish tourist bureau. VisitDenmark., but it sure has caused an uproar. You have obviously no idea what it means to have kids. I do not understand that someone can sink so low and exploiting a child and the world in the way in hopes that people actually want to visit Denmark, writes one of the angry Danes on the website. VisitDenmark has also received positive comments on the advertisement from among others foreigners who thought it was an expression of good Danish humor. - You inspire me to be a better father for my child, wrote one man. Yes, this is Danish humour at it's best. We can laugh and make fun at just about anything, and we do. I thought this video was really funny. Maybe you have to live here to appreciate it, but it sure makes life a heck of a lot more fun. Come up and see us sometime! I'll even buy you a beer. Hahahah! .:lol: .:lol:

POPSBest foods for your heart Spinach can help keep your ticker in top shape thanks to its stores of lutein, folate, potassium, and fiber. Full of fiber and omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, a little sprinkling of flaxseed can go a long way for your heart. Top a bowl of oatmeal or whole-grain cereal with a smidgen of ground flaxseed for the ultimate heart-healthy breakfast. Soy Soy may lower cholesterol, and since it is low in saturated fat, it's still a great source of lean protein in a heart-healthy diet.

POPSSEXY (Totaly hot naked picture of a Mono-monostatic object: perfect geometric equilibrium) Now that I have your attention, allow me to introduce the Gomboc! It's an object of absolutely perfect geometric equilbrium. There is only one position in which it can rest, and it will always return to the exact same posture, because the balance of its proportions all pull it to a single incredibly narrow center of gravity. And, it is TOTALLY NAKED! I mean, just check out the curves on this one! How did we get this Gombloc? Well, there were a few Russian mathematicians sitting around (probably stoned) who thought it would be cool. So they just sat down and did the math "for a few years" and then tested thousands of pebles (once again, STONED!) until they just decided to make one themselves. I am so not worthy!

POPSArsenic-eating bacteria rewrite evolutionary history Oremland's team isolated and bred these bacteria in the lab. By growing them with with arsenite as the only possible food source, the researchers showed that the bacteria can indeed thrive. The results suggest that arsenic photosynthesis evolved at the same time, or even before, "normal" photosynthesis. Oremland says a similar mechanism might once have fuelled life on Mars or on Jupiter's moon Europa.

POPS'Green' chemistry may get the midas touch I imagined 'green' chemistry would involve copper but...They think the size of the Gold particles may make them reactive due to quantum effects. I wonder how that theory extends to smaller particles or even mono-atomic (single non-metallic atoms powdered or in suspension) gold. I bet we'll find out.They regularly seem to be finding uses for gold, that are completely unlike any use it has had before. Still, all it can take for any element to be used in a revolutionary way is a new approach. Gold just happens to fascinate us so particularly.

POPSpoisonous food What i like here is the fact that by moving a context, here a different life form, all descriptions regarding what is benefitial or harmful (for example) need to be updated.

POPSNew 'arsenic-breathing' bacteria found While arsenic may be toxic because of the way it substitutes phosphorous in the process of burning energy, I don't recall boiling water being too healthy either. When life on earth was just kicking off, there was little free oxygen, and plenty of boiling water. Arsenic based photosynthesis is likely to have been working long before the green/chlorophyll based photosynthesis evolved.
