POPSPersonality Types in Cyberspace With a strong predilection towards disagreeing with people, their messages in email and discussion board groups often begin and are peppered throughout with words like "but" and "however." A more subtle oppositional message may start off with "well" or the namesake "yes but." Psychodynamic theory proposes that these people struggle with underlying feelings of hostility that can only be expressed passively or indirectly, via the act of disagreeing. They also may need to oppose others as a way to firm up their somewhat fragile identity or to boost self-esteem by proving themselves right and others mistaken. People with oppositional tendencies may be drawn to the intellectually contentious atmosphere of online discussion groups. That atmosphere, combined with the difficulties in establishing one's presence in a somewhat chaotic environment that lacks the identity-grounding cues of face-to-face contact, may also amplify oppositional tendencies.

POPSWinter Bird Feeding Provide cover. Birds need shelter from harsh conditions, and vegetation in your yard will help to furnish it. Don’t prune back dead vegetation like vines and stalks – these provide both valuable winter cover and nesting material for birds in the spring. Balconies have a special opportunity to attract nesting birds as they provide great shelter. Add habitat in your backyard in the form of a brush pile, which may attract foraging birds and mammals, and even over-wintering reptiles, amphibians and insects.

POPS35 Amazingly Beautiful Japanese Gardens Japanese gardens are one of my favorite styles for gardening. These clips come from royaltutorial.com, and are unusual inasmuch as they depict some gardens in wintertime as well as some monochromatic ones. These are just a few of the pics on the site, so if you like these as much as I do, check it out. Enjoy!

POPSOhio School Suspends 8th Grader Over Haircut Ohio is one of those weird places that makes me glad I grew up in Illinois. Apparently, in Ohio, school students are distracted by the simplest of things - like this 8th grade boy's haircut, showing off his support of the Cincinnati Bengals. So distracting, in fact, the boy's school district suspended him. Google this story and you will find that Ohio has a noticeable history of suspending kids as young as Kindergärtner-age for "unacceptable" hairstyles. What does Ohio have against unusual hair styles? Perhaps, they simply aren't aware of just how bad hair styles can become, so I decided this morning to give the state a little education in the 50 worst hairstyles of all time. After reviewing these 50 "do's," I think it's clear that Ohio should count its lucky stars that this young boy is just a sports fan.

POPSPinups for Peace - Reclaiming the Bombshell “Since the dawn of time, the promise of our charms has been used to urge our men into battle. We are called up to rally behind our troops, and to give the boys something to take their minds off their job: WAR. Those times are over.” ~Pinups for Peace

POPSManaging Distraction more: "Surfing or multitasking may have even more of a place in 21st-century society as strategies of learning," says Jackson. "But going forward, we need to do much more than hopscotch across the web, split-focused and pulled this way and that by choice distractions. We cannot mistake fragmented, diffused attention as avenues of higher thought-or deeper relationships." "Instead, we need to do better at cultivating deep focus, keen awareness and meta-cognitive "executive" attention-the package of skills that is crucial to moving forward in a complex, high-tech age," says Jackson. "If we can 'green' the earth, we can clean up our noisy, interrupt-driven environment, and set the stage for a renaissance of attention for all."

POPSThe Hidden History of Tango ...men practicing together, looking for the best ways to please a woman when they danced with her, preparing for that rare moment when they actually did have a woman in their arms, were the people who created the Tango as a dance. It evolved and became Tango, unique and glorious, under these very special and unusual circumstances.

POPSWho Is And Isn't Qualified To Speak On Global Warming? This is different than the Times’ (and others’) treatment of and lack of interest in the academic training of the individual regularly cited without such “just an economist” commentary as a leading and essentially unimpeachable authority, the economist and former railway engineer Rajendra Pachauri. The Times has even hailed Pachauri in the past as the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s chief “climatologist”. Climatology is a specialty field if ever there was one but a qualification which Pachauri, for all of his other virtues toiling for years in the UN vineyards, attained by virtue of being appointed to head the IPCC. This is unfairly disparate treatment. Read more http://biggovernment.com/2009/09/25/who-is-and-isnt-qualified-to-speak-on-global-warming/#more-8630
