POPSObama's Malignant Narcissism
When Obama runs into brick walls, he seems to reflexively go into a state of rage. The same thing will happen to Obama if and when he loses the election in 2012. Since narcissists in power keep people around them in a constant state of fear -- everybody gets targeted and feels insecure -- you can expect a ton of dirty tricks in elections to come. But then Democrats constantly use dirty tricks. I fear two things with Obama. One is if the GOP fails to elect a House majority in 2010 to keep Obama within the bounds of sanity. A GOP majority is essential for the safety of the country and the world. But even if Obama is defeated in 2012, he will just turn into an angrier version of Al Gore and Jimmy Carter. He will haunt the political future of this country as long as he is alive, because that famished ego never gets enough. Malignant narcissism often gets worse over time. So even if the voters throw out this very dangerous cult-like administration, you can expect Obama to be poppi

POPSWatch out! Goblin Gummy Bears!!! The sheer absurdity of this story made me laugh out loud. Later, after sober reflection, I developed a sincere feeling of pity for this woman who is apparently in need of counseling.

POPSPart 2 The Marijuana Trick In September of 1937, hemp became illegal. The most useful crop known became a drug and our planet has been suffering ever since. Congress banned hemp because it was said to be the most violence-causing drug known. Anslinger, head of the Drug Commission for 31 years, promoted the idea that marihuana made users act extremely violent. In the 1950s, under the Communist threat of McCarthyism, Anslinger now said the exact opposite. Marijuana will pacify you so much that soldiers would not want to fight. Read MORE at source..........

POPSImagine world without suffering... ...And this world is just step away. Away from killing. Animal, birds, fish... whoever we (most of us now) are eating. God (Mother Nature, Karma, whatever it is) not forgiving us for breaking its rules to live in harmony with surrounding world and punishing us for our ignorance. If only diabetes! Whole metabolic syndrome with depressions and host of mood disorders, disfiguring obesity, heart failure as direct result. Everything starting from what we putting in our mouths. Far from everything what we can chew and swallow can be good for your body! Watch what you eating and drinking! Educate yourself. You will be terrified what we doing now and inevitably come to the vegan lifestyle, where is no place for cruelty, diseases, tricks and sufferings.

POPSJeff Galloway: Silly yet effective mental tricks to make it across the finish line
More: Magic Footprints: Here's another foot-related trick: Visualize fatigue escaping from your body through the soles of your feet. Imagine leaving footprints that are damp and faintly glowing with the residue of the fatigue that, moments earlier, was slowing you down. With every stride, you're gaining energy. Super Coolant: It's a sweltering day, the finish line seems unreachable, and you're hotter than a polar bear at the equator. No problem. At the next aid station, imagine that the volunteers have slipped a secret ingredient into your water. This substance soaks up heat. Take a short walk break as you grab two cups, drinking as much of one as you need. Feel the water (and its secret ingredient) seeping into your arms and legs, down to your bones, cooling your core body temperature. Then lean forward, pour the other cup over your head, and picture steam escaping. Visualize billions of molecules absorbing body heat and then releasing it into the air.

POPSUK has 1% of world's population but 20% of its CCTV cameras
An old article but still pretty accurate. you cannot move in London without being seen by at least 3 cameras at any one point. It is the definition of a police state, the police also have sub-machine guns, (H&K MP5k's for anyone interested) while you can be arrested for carrying a penknife if its blade is more than an inch long, because of the laws now concerning blades and knives. as well as the other tricks like LRADs (not new) which are now common place around the world. All backed by by ignorant and dangerous attitudes of the police. Again as always don't take my word for it look it up. The report says: "It is not entirely absurd to imagine that supermarkets' loyalty card data might one day be used by the Government to identify people who ignored advice to eat healthily or who drank too much, so that they could be given a lower priority for NHS treatment". "We have supermarkets collecting data on our shopping habits and also offering life insurance services"

POPSGlenn "Chicken Little" Beck, the lowest of the low. The animosity between Beck and Kelly continued to deepen. When Beck and Hattrick produced a local version of Orson Welles' "War of the Worlds" for Halloween -- a recurring motif in Beck's life and career -- Kelly told a local reporter that the bit was a stupid rip-off of a syndicated gag. The slight outraged Beck, who got his revenge with what may rank as one of the cruelest bits in the history of morning radio. "A couple days after Kelly's wife, Terry, had a miscarriage, Beck called her live on the air and says, 'We hear you had a miscarriage,' " remembers Brad Miller, a former Y95 DJ and Clear Channel programmer. "When Terry said, 'Yes,' Beck proceeded to joke about how Bruce apparently can't do anything right -- about he can't even have a baby."

POPSInside The GOP Lie Machine: The Hangman and Health Care Reform
"The insurance industry is up to the same dirty tricks, using the same devious PR practices it has used for many years, to kill reform," says Wendell Potter, who stepped down last year as chief of corporate communications for health insurance giant CIGNA. "I'm certain that people showing up at these town halls feel that they're there on their own — but they don't realize they're being incited, ultimately, by the insurance industry and the other special interests." Armey, however, unabashedly compares FreedomWorks to a lynch mob. "We used to use the old saying in the West, that you got outta town just one step ahead of the hangman," he says, explaining why George Bush's budget-busting policies didn't inspire the same outrage among his 400,000 followers. "That's pretty much what happened with Bush. And poor old President Obama walked into town, y'know, just at high noon." more @ source related http://clipmarks.com/clipmark/0E8658BD-956E-47FE-AD32-CB3C9175F

POPSThe Nutcracker: Bolshoi Ballet
The legendary holiday ballet performed by the Bolshoi Ballet. Featuring Natalya Arkhipova and Irek Mukhamedov. Choreographed by Yuri Grigorovich. Performed by thousands of ballet companies around the world every Christmas, The Nutcracker has become the most popular ballet of all time. This week, we looked into the enduring appeal of this balletic masterpiece.Tchaikovsky started writing The Nutcracker two years before his death in 1893. It was first performed in 1892. The plot is based on a story by Hoffman, although in Tchaikovsky’s hand the story lost a lot of its “grimness” to become the piece of seasonal confectionary that we know today. Act one begins with Clara and Fritz preparing for a Christmas party. Their uncle Drosselmeyer arrives with presents for the family, and entertains them with magic tricks. His present to Clara is a magical doll (the Nutcracker) and the children watch in amazement and delight as the life-sized doll dances in front of them. . . .

POPSAcorn Pimp Sting, Child Prostitution and Accountability When I heard about this story I checked HuffPo and Truth Dig: nothing. Checked again the next day, still nothing. WTF is up with all of this silence? From page 20 of the transcript: the conversation is about 15 year old girls from El Salvador James: What if they are going to be making money because they are performing tricks too. Tonya (ACORN): but if they making money you shouldn't be letting anybody know anyway. Wow. Disgusting. Horrible. Unconscionable. I am absolutely stunned by that exchange. I have worked at community organizations and I never met anyone like this Tonya. GRRRRR.....

POPSPolitics of Charisma ~ So Third World. All this hero-worship before Mr. Obama met his first test of leadership. In reality, he was who he was, a Chicago politician who had done well by his opposition to the Iraq war. He had run a skillful campaign, and had met a Clinton machine that had run out of tricks and a McCain campaign that never understood the nature of the contest of 2008

POPSPresident Obama's Aggressive Investigation of the CIA "The United States' intelligence community is undergoing the most extensive " perhaps even radical " transformations since the Office of Strategic Services gave way to the Central Intelligence Agency," said Det. Frances. CIA morale hits new low due to Obama Administration threats "Recognizing that people are the critical element in transformation initiatives is key to a successful transformation of the intelligence community and related homeland security organizations. However, an agency headed by a politically motivated party hack is a dangerous thing for the American people," political strategist Mike Baker said. The CIA is responsible for coordinating US counterintelligence activities abroad. Each of the military departments also has a counterintelligence element that operates domestically and overseas. "Historically, intelligence agencies have not performed this crucial function very well.
