POPSMavis Leno "Why is "feminist" regarded as a dirty word by some people? The women who freed 50% of the American population -- at last, to hear their names in speeches was the most emotional thing in the world to me. So if you don't want to call yourself a feminist, then give it all back, OK? If these women so long ago had the guts to stand up and go through what they had to go through, then have the decency to call yourself a feminist."

POPSAs US talks tough, Jewish settlements keep booming They will not be happy until the last of the Palestinians has been driven into the sea or dead. Then they will start on other countries around them. Obama will not hold any sway. He is expected to support their every move, as did his predecessors.

POPS Friday Potpourri And now the latest money-making scheme from the left-wing press: The Washington Post is selling access to administration officials and reporters for $25,000 to $250,000. At one time, this sort of thing would be considered unethical, but under Obama-Pelosi-Reid, selling access to government officials is just more deep-dish Chicago Style government. Life imitates South Park: A woman in Florida is attacked by a woodland critter. We could have warned her, woodland critters are dangerous… "I never expected a woodland creature"

POPSPope calls for Israel to be wiped off the map When asked whether his latest statements have anything to do with the fact that he is German and that his chief speech writer and spiritual advisor was the recently pardoned holocaust denier Richard Williamson. The Pope replied: "I'm 82 you know". When asked how he suggested Israel be wiped off the map, his Holiness replied: "Ahh, good question, um, condoms, oh wait, lack of condoms, banning condoms, it's one of those isn't it?". Speaking from his Los Angeles mansion, a drunk, naked and slurring Mel Gibson was quoted as saying: "You go Popie, see I told I was right about those damn Jews". He then passed out in a pot plant.

POPSOperation KHANJAR will rapidly move to introduce the initial essential aspects of governance and economic development into these newly secured areas. These efforts will be focused upon providing immediate assistance to the population, and in setting the conditions for successful elections in August. Today’s operation is designed to separate and isolate the Taliban from the population who has long suffered the effects of their presence. This large scale operation is not without risk to the many thousands of brave and dedicated Afghan and coalition troops participating. This operation is designed to boldly demonstrate to the Afghan people the determination and dedication of the Government and Coalition Forces in ridding the area of Taliban insurgents who prey upon the people. The Taliban offer no future, no hope, and we will work to provide immediate security gains to the local citizens of the Helmand River valley.

POPSGlobal Suicide?
Peter Panford, a cult evangelist, killed in the mass suicide, wrote in a letter to In Seine News to give reason why this had happened. "Many of Michael's records had secret, sublime messages in them and could be clearly heard - especially if they were played backwards. Many fans who heard the records were programmed to self destruct when a star in the constellation of Orion (named after him, came into alignment with his star on Hollywood Boulevard." he wrote. When news of his death broke late on Thursday night there was a significant drop in the world population, the likes of which have not been seen since the 'Great Ethiopian Solar Bear Epidemic of 1822' in which millions of Solar Bears were wiped out! The Church of England is extremely concerned and Rowan Atkinson, the Archbishop of Canterbury has warned people not to do it. He pointed out that Jackson might be in heaven, - but only might be, (if he knocked on enough doors as a Jehovah's Witness). If not, he could equally be in

POPSEconomics and Cap-N-Tax It is as if the House of Representatives suddenly passed a vote to reduce gravity by 10 percent in order to lessen the costs of obesity to putatively cut Medicare costs in the future. Truly amazing.

POPSUK migrant woodland bird species are disappearing Over the period studied, 17 species showed significant decreases in abundance and 12 species showed significant increases. Whilst population trajectories were diverse, long-distance migrants showed more negative trends than other species and the timing of the changes in their populations was related to their wintering latitude, suggesting that these species may be suffering from environmental changes in the non-breeding season. There was also support for habitat specializations being related to population changes. Additionally, species eating seeds in summer declined and those eating vegetation and making use of the agricultural landscape matrix increased. Therefore wide-scale factors such as landscape-scale processes or processes operating outside of Britain appear to be important in addition to local habitat change, especially for long-distance migrants.
