POPSI'll Be Damned If I'll Let You Misrepresent Me {{Blueridge}} says: Motive: Her romantic advances were rejected. There is no "hate crime" law for this, and depicts a similar scenario to one proposed in a Clipmark here, in its horrific reality. She will get life, while the "friend" she hated, got death. "Crimes of passion" are born of those who are not gratified in trying to obtain their selfish pleasures (like the men of Sodom who were storming Mayor Lot's House to "make sport" w/ two visitors, to take them by force). Passion is not "love", it is self-love, for personal gratification, and holds the targeted "romance" object as personal property, which they claim possession of mentally (giving birth to unjust jealousy), and therefore usurp to themselves a claim to use force to obtain or revenge. Sometimes in crime, other times something less. Note too the murderer was portrayed as a victim for "coming out as a lesbian". Astonishing.

POPSWe Can’t Sit Back and Allow the Loss of Our Freedoms By Judge Andrew P. Napolitano
The privacy of your communications and medical decision making with your physician will be gone. More of your hard earned dollars will be at the disposal of federal bureaucrats. It was not supposed to be this way. We elect the government. It works for us. How did it get so removed, so unbridled, so arrogant that it can tell us how to live our personal lives? Evil rarely comes upon us all at once, and liberty is rarely lost in one stroke. It happens gradually, over the years and decades and even centuries. A little stretch here, a cave in there, powers are slowly taken from the states and the people and before you know it, we have one big monster government that recognizes no restraint on its ability to tell us how to live. It claims the power to regulate any activity, tax any behavior, and demand conformity to any standard it chooses. The Founders did not give us a government like the one we have today. The government they gave us was strictly limited in its scope,

POPSMore and more e-books being stored on the 'cloud' It will be very interesting to see which of these approaches becomes the preferred option, and especially how popular "demand" affects "price". Given the increasing availability of "annotation" services that overlay web content and the increasing demands on personal time, it is easy to anticipate that "user generated" annotation content may well become the modern equivalent of the Reader's Digest "condensed" book.

POPSSarah Palin's Lesbian Friend "And if Palin’s lesbian friend were to fall in love with a lovely Russian lesbian that she could see from Alaska—and enter into an adult personal relationship with that Russian—Sarah Palin doesn’t think her lesbian friend’s lover should be able to emigrate to the United States. But, hey, at least Sarah Palin refuses to judge her lesbian friend—and that’s something, right? It’s not equality or fairness or respect or full enfranchisement, of course, but it’s… um… something."

POPSSend a message to the US troops Xerox is sponsoring Let's Say Thanks. I clipped some messages from soldiers that have received the postcards. It is easy to do. Select a drawing, select a message (or write your own) and type in your name and city. I encourage every Clipper, regardless of personal politics, to send a message of thanks for the brave men and women that are away from their families right now. It takes 10 seconds. Thanks!

POPSBecoming too reliant and emotionally attached to your personal computer RAM (Random Access Memory) is an animation about becoming too reliant and emotionally attached to your personal computer. It is an exaggeration of my research on recent trends of dependency and attachment found in children for their PCs, especially in the US and UK. The animation centres on the interaction between two boys, Mark and Tylr, while the technical focus of the piece is on animation, particularly facial animation. The style of the piece is based on Japanese anime, which has already been used for many technological and sci-fi series, and is born from a country famous for its technophilia and tendency to use technology for fun and companionship. The voice actors I used were children I overheard at a comic book store, and while most of the dialogue is scripted, I also made use of excess recordings that were just too lol to not use. Enjoy!

POPSHow to fix health care..if you really want to! How about opening up the insurance industry to some competition by doing away with the anti-trust exemption which would allow the capitalists among them to sell insurance across state lines?? How about limiting the coverage for elective medical procedures, like nose jobs, breast enhancements and the like and, yes, abortions?? People who want their insurance to cover elective procedures should have the ability to add that to their basic coverage as an "extra" (for an additional out of pocket non-deductible premium). Obama & Congress could care less about really fixing the problem, Obama simply needs a victory....any kind of victory. If they did they would not shy away from tackling the major obstacles, tort reform, allowing the purchase of polices across state lines and cracking down on fraud associated with health-care.

POPSObama Sets Stage for surrender to Terrorists: Leaked Afghan Strategy Revealed
additionally… The administration’s plan contains “off-ramps,” points starting next June at which Obama could decide to continue the flow of troops, halt the deployments and adopt a more limited strategy or “begin looking very quickly at exiting” the country, depending on political and military progress, one defense official said. “We have to start showing progress within six months on the political side or military side or that’s it,” the U.S. defense official said. and it goes on to say… The administration’s protracted deliberations have escalated into open warfare between McChrystal and his supporters and advocates of a more limited strategy led by Biden and White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel that often played out in dueling leaks to news organizations. He does not want to fight a war on terror as he promised the Majority of Americans to get himself elected… and he does not want to take responsibility for surrender either.

POPS7 Signs of a Leader 6. People Skills Arguing with a fool proves there are two. - Doris M. Smith Leaders have great people skills; they are friendly to the unfriendly, they know how to respond in every situation. Leaders do not engage in personal battles, they save their strength for the task at hand. Leaders treat people with respect and dignity; they connect with others on a personal and emotional level. 7. Momentum and Timing “If you're coasting, you're either losing momentum or else you're headed downhill.” – Joan Welsh Finally, leaders know how to create momentum, and they know when to act. Nothing great is ever accomplished without momentum and timing. Leaders Develop Leaders The test of a great leader is who they develop. A great leader will develop great followers; those followers will become great leaders. It takes a leader to make a leader. A leader’s legacy is measured by succession. Are you a great leader? T

POPSDetroit Pistons Org. Gives Help To Military Families "There is a lot of support for families where someone is deployed, but service people at home don't get the same help," Schroeder said. "We are here to help them." The food distribution was in conjunction with the Pistons Military Salute to be held at 7:30 tonight during the game against the Charlotte Bobcats at the Palace of Auburn Hills. The Pistons are to salute those who have served or are serving in all branches of the U.S. military. Current members or veterans are to receive free tickets while their families can go to the game for $11 a person. In March, the Pistons raised more than $450,000 during the 17-hour 2009 Pistons Care Marathon in support of Feed The Children. Since the telethon, the organization has distributed 25,000 aid boxes throughout the state, including Lansing, Pontiac, Benton Harbor and Kalamazoo.

POPSAsylum For Battered Women
Clip On made a comment about Liberals not defending those who would seek to oppress women so I found this clip interesting. Let me speak politics for a second. First of all, I'm not going to waste my time on those who just want to argue that their side is right vs. my side is wrong. We are in a world of shit with the economy and we all need to pull together. I love America and I want to see it do better. Many of those on the right would probably be surprised to know that I work with people who don't have the resources and I hate to say this, but I'm gonna, I basically babysit grown people. I STRESS personal responsibility, but I want to say here and now that personal responsibility is not the ONLY thing. Our society is full of complex problems. But I am confident we can pull together and solve them without constant partisan rhetoric and bickering. That solves nothing. I want to stress that I am DISGUSTED that the Obama administration policies does not involve women fleei

POPSNEA recomends Alinsky as teaching aid I love how it isn't 'personal terrorism' if you just deem someone to be a symbol and not a person. Maybe that is why the left is so sympathetic to the Fort Hood shooter. They don't consider those dead as people, but only as symbols of something they can't stand.
