POPSCredit Crisis Caused By White People The Brazilian President may be correct on this but that is only because White Is The Color Of Wall Street. I hope he realizes that GREED with all its nasty connotations is color blind. The real sin here was to allow the "FREE" market "FREE" reign, "FREE" from oversight; And all of us, black, brown, yellow, red and white will be paying out the yin-yang for a very long time for all their FREE-ness! :-(

POPSIn Order for Change - We Must Be Willing to Change
The media is ripe with chicken little running amuch. The article below points this out even more so. My take on it, even as I keep clipping all the bad news, is that for our society, our world, and the future to change, people must change first. There is way too much greed - which is what got everyone, all over the world into this mess. The guys at the top need $50million+ salaries and bonuses, which meant the worker bees down the line needed find that "honey" some place. So find ways to spew propoganda that everyone needs bigger houses, oh and not just one - but a second or third for vacations, which most people would have little time to take since they needed to keep working to have that lifesytle. People need bigger and more expensive cars, but wait - where to get the money - take out second mortgage. So the greed progressed down the chain here in the US and of course the demand drove output elsewhere in the world and the cheap labor started making lots of money for producing

POPSYin and yang Yin-yang is an active concept: yin and yang are thought to arise together from an initial quiescence or emptiness (wuji, sometimes symbolized by an empty circle), and to continue moving in tandem until quiescence is reached again. For instance, dropping a stone in a calm pool of water will simultaneously raise waves and lower troughs between them, and this alternation of high and low points in the water will radiate outward until the movement dissipates and the pool is calm once more. Yin-yang, thus, always has the following characteristics Go to site for more information.

POPSThe Krampus Clause: A Christmas Fable A dark Christmas tale from the warped little mind of {{Spiritualmonkey}}. From the author's note: Growing up in America, there are swathes of old-world traditions that I still get amazed by when I come across them. Because at best we've got some milquetoast version (or none at all).… The idea of Krampus, a shadow Santa, a furry wild man of the forest, just spoke to me. Santa's domesticated werewolf. Krampus the Christmas Ogre. Yin to Santa's Yang. Given the commercialized, watered down Santa we get here in the States, the old-school version just seem to have so much more grit.… I like my fairies unseelie. Because all we fucking get from the corporate media is Tinkerbell and her clones. The stories that people told each other and the passed down the generations, they had the dark and the light. All we get sold to us is the light version. And I think that makes one either cynical or vapid. So yeah, this is my unseelie Santa story.…

POPS The Testosterone Deficit . . . yang voice with freedom and self-reliance. Why? Because when Athenian citizens perused the known world they noticed something rather curious: in no country other than Greece did citizens enjoy freedom or the virtues of democratic government. Famous Greeks like the fifth century B.C. physician Hippocrates attempted to explain this fascinating anomaly. What Hippocrates and other Greek observers all tended to conclude was that the rest of the world's subjects must be "effeminate" or else, like the Greeks, they would have demanded -- like real men -- to be left alone by their leaders. In his essay On Airs, Waters, and Places for example Hippocrates notes that those who endure life under a despot are "cowardly, as I have stated before, for their souls are enslaved."

POPSMcCain Blames Obama for Wall Street Crisis Is he senile or just dumb? McCain, who has been in Washington DC for 3 decades and has lobbyists as advisers out the yin-yang, says Obama is the Washington insider who brought the crisis about? That's how I spell desperation.
