POPSFor Those Undecided Voters... If you are undecided about who to vote for in the US presidential race (HUH?) Maybe, you should check with Obama's standing in the world.... Which translates something like this... In Percentages GEORGE W BUSH = 0% BARACK OBAMA = 99% JOHN McGRUMPYPANTS = 1% (Just Kidding) :-D Excerpt from article: No matter where you live, no matter which nation you hail from or to which political ideology you tend to adhere, the Bush/McCain approach to leadership -- belligerent, militaristic, religiously closed-minded, culturally stagnant, environmentally reckless, fiscally irresponsible -- has resulted in one of the most epic collapses of a world power in modern history, which in turn has made the rest of the world a more volatile, hostile place for all. http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/g/a/2008/10/08/notes100808.DTL&nl=fix

POPSTop 10 Not So Bad Astronomy Pics All Beautiful...from Mark Morford's SF Gate column...3) Top 10 astronomy photos of 2007 (Bad Astronomy). You know what we as a nation, as a people lack more than anything else in this bitter, Bush-gutted age? No, not more porn-happy YouTube-ripoff sites. It's awe. The raw, delicious, mind-bending, perspective shattering, oh-my-God-what-the-hell-is-that kind of awe that makes your id tingle and your ego sigh. Stare in wonder, then, at these photos. Let them seep in. Note for example, how the star known as Mira (a.k.a. "The Wonderful") has a tail that is 13 light years (about 80 trillion miles) long. See two massive, ancient galaxies mingle in a lover's embrace. Note how two of the most beautiful words in the English language might just be "whirlpool galaxy." Feel your brain whimper, but your soul expand. http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/g/a/2008/01/09/notes010908.DTL&nl=fix

POPSWhat is obscene? See also the "Howl" (sfgate.com) controversy in which Pacifica radio declines to read the poem on American radio because one fine from the FCC could wipe them out.
