POPSThe Iraq Handbook for Dummies “What’s the difference between a Sunni and a Shiite?” Well, we clippers all know the answer to THAT question, don't we? ;) http://clipmarks.com/clipmark/D73BF818-3437-42FA-B965-C5C8EC2441DF/ Iraqis live in blended Sunni-Shiite families; some call themselves "Sushi." Funny! .:D

POPSGoogle Wave Rolls Out to 100,000 Users Tomorrow The idea is to drag email and IM into real-time—so it's free-wheeling mesh of Twitter, IM, Friendfeed really, any other kind of service presenting semi-real-time stuff in a stream. But in Google Wave, you can share and collaborate on projects, and all of this is mashed together at once, so it might be the ultimate service for people with ADD, or enterprise looking to simulate the feeling of 10 people standing around a desk scattered with a bunch of projects, but you're all able to work on any of them simultaneously while you're also whispering to the cute girl across the table about the new sushi place around the corner. You start a wave with any message or photo or whatever, and you bring people into the discussion, and then they can bring other people in as well (unless you block it or start kicking people out) so it's as public or private as you want it to be.

POPSModern Sushi: The Taste of Globalization Great review of two new books on the rise of the global sushi industry. “Sushi had started as a form of preservation,” Issenberg says, “but it was becoming precisely the opposite: a way of using the infrastructure of modernity to chaperone a delicate dish around the world.” Over the course of two decades, he writes, “the average price for bluefin tuna paid to Atlantic fisherman rose by 10,000 percent.”

POPSScary Sushi This is a frightening find by The New York Times. While most people concerned about mercury levels in food have been focused on avoiding canned tuna, virtually nothing has been said about the raw kind. I'll be thinking twice before I make my next sushi order.

POPSVideo Clipiversity is awesome, one small feature suggestion Hey guys, the new video format is really working well. I got one request for you. Can you take all the clips you reference and add a custom tag, or put them in a collection, or something? I want to be able to subscribe to "clipiversity" clips, or to browse through them easily without having to come back to this page and click on each link in turn once I've seen the video. Maybe that feature already exists, but I haven't spotted it yet. Along those same lines - have you considered adding a little box to the front page -- maybe a horizontal banner across the top -- which could contain announcements and communications from you guys? I feel like new features get pushed out without my noticing because I'm not really sure where to be keeping an eye out for them. Thanks all - fantastic work as always. PS guess you'll have to include blip.tv support for video clipping now, huh.

POPSMark Morford on Elitism
Also, you read. 17. You are, for some godforsaken reason, absolutely convinced all the way down to your most profound sense of what is divine and truthful in this strangled world that violence and bloodshed are rarely the answer, that the irrefutable spiritual laws of the universe confirm that like attracts like and even at a quantum level there is a profound pull toward a divine, benevolent dynamic equilibrium, and therefore constructing a malicious national policy of torture and surveillance and pre-emptive aggression merely shames the better nature of the human animal and invites a particularly violent energy into the national bloodstream and poisons the human heart as it creates nothing but more turmoil and unrest and hate in the world. Man, only an elitist jerk would tolerate a ridiculous run-on sentence like that. 18. Your most treasured pieces of writing don't feature Muggles, Hobbits, glossy centerfolds of Dale Earnhardt Jr., dogs named Marley, or an angry and omnipotent

POPSFive Foods You Shouldn't Eat Raw 4. Beef and pork: Avoiding raw meat is a no-brainer, until you see it on the menu with an appetizing name like tartare or carpaccio. There’s a long list of diseases you could get from raw meat, so I’ll mention only one: neurocysticercosis, a parasite from undercooked pork that crawls from your intestine up to your brain, where it can live for years and cause seizures. …and finally, no “Everybody Panic!” list is complete without at least one way you might inadvertently kill your child: 5. Honey: Honey contains bacterial spores that cause botulism, a disease that’s usually fatal if untreated. While adults and children have high stomach acid levels that kill the spores in honey, infants do not. Children less than a year old should not eat honey.
