POPS10 Ways to Stop Corporate Dominance of Politics Give qualified candidates equal amounts of free broadcast air time for political messages. Ban political advertising by corporations that receive government money, hire lobbyists, or collect most of their revenue abroad. Impose a 500 percent excise tax on corporate contributions to political committees and on corporate expenditures on political advocacy campaigns. Prohibit companies from trading their stock on national exchanges if they make political contributions and expenditures. Require publicly traded companies to disclose in SEC filings money used for the purpose of influencing public opinion, rather than for promoting their products. Require the corporate CEO to appear as sponsor of commercials that his or her company pays for Publicize the reform options, inform the public of who is making contributions to whom, and activate the citizenry. If we are to safeguard our democracy, media must inform and citizens must act.

POPSFoundations of Terror, Pakistan's Education System These clips are taken from a look at Pakistan's education system and how it neglects to teach the children the basics but rather instil in them a type of hero worship of those that are determined to keep power in the country. Poorly targeted programmes but external states (like the USA) have failed to make an impact and will continue to do so, like almost all challenges or movements for change the want and desire has to start where the problem is. Maybe the best we can do is let them know that they can choose a better way, much like during the Cold War. But this message has to be focused specifically down to the tribal/individual level, no broad sweeps here. Though nothing makes policy makers happy then saying how many schools have been built so change will have to begin on both sides of this divide. Peace

POPSFoxNews M.I.A. In Covering Haiti Disaster On January 13, Fox News' three top-rated programs for 2009 -- The O'Reilly Factor, Hannity, and Glenn Beck -- devoted a combined total of less than 7 minutes of coverage to the earthquake in Haiti, instead choosing to air such things as Beck's hour-long interview with Sarah Palin, Bill O'Reilly's discussion of Comedy Central host Jon Stewart, and Sean Hannity's advocacy for Massachusetts candidate Scott Brown's Senate campaign. And that, folks, is why FoxNews is anything but "the news."

Prominent journalists who have quoted Gruber’s work extensively, from Ezra Klein at the Washington Post to Ron Brownstein at the Atlantic, have expressed surprise upon learning that Gruber received at least $392,600 in sole-source contracts from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) in the last year. more at ....... http://dailycaller.com/

POPSIt's About Executive Function Karl Malone correctly, in my view, put this gun incident in proper perspective. It's wrong, and it's the worst incident that has ever happened to the NBA and it's reputation. I believe that this incident proclaims the nonexistence of the brain's executive function. This is the part of the brain that controls impulsive, dangerous behaviors. Only someone with immature impulses could have done this. It's too bad, Gilbert Arenas didn't ask someone with a more mature sense of self-control how to keep his guns appropriately away from his children. It seems to me that Karl Malone had a good idea of using a safe...OR he could put them in a safety deposit box. He certainly didn't need to put them in a public place where POTENTIALLY other children might find them. I'm hoping that the NBA will help provide the NBA players involved in the incident with some lessons in properly storing guns. It may be too late, but it's worth the effort.

POPS Castles Built on Sand chip away at the fortress walls of secrecy about temperature data, Terence Corcoran (http://bit.ly/7wwlwo) refers to the second leg of the IPCC thesis - that is after the physical science was supposedly settled. This focused on social and economic solutions to the supposed global warming problem, and required wider scientific expertise to formulate and validate models whose complexities and unknowns rivalled those of trying to predict the weather decades hence. Only four scenarios were developed, called A1, B1, A2, and B2. In the 1998 draft, the A1 scenario is called the Golden Economic Age. It describes a period of “rapid and successful economic development,” brought on by the economic structures that have been successful in the past: free markets, global free trade, innovation. “Free trade enables each region to access knowledge, technology, and capital to best deploy its respective comparative economic and human advantages.”

POPSCongresswoman Dina Titus urges constituents to print their own money Earlier in the year, Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner unveiled a new program designed to combat falling prices, called the No Sales & Low Prices, or NOSLOP, program. The target is for consumer staples to rise at least four or five times wages. So far, the efforts have failed to make prices rise substantially. This failure has been blamed on inadequate money printing measures by the Fed. "The Treasury has a plurality of tools at its disposal to combat price deflation and prevent people from finding bargains. We all know that consumers get upset at low prices, so we started a new program called No Sales & Low Prices . We are asking consumers to report any store that is advertising anything as being on sale, or if they find anything on a store shelf that is marked down," said Treasury Secretary Geithner. It is now a federal felony to lower prices without the approval of President Obama's Consumer Price Czar.

POPSWhen Liberal Dreams Collide With Public Opinion
"What's really exceptional at this stage of Obama's presidency," writes Andrew Kohut, the Pew Research Center's respected pollster, "is the extent to which the public has moved in a conservative direction on a range of issues. These trends have emanated as much from the middle of the electorate as from the highly energized conservative right. From which we can draw two conclusions. One is that economic distress does not move Americans to support more government. Rasmussen reports that 66 percent of Americans favor smaller government with fewer services and only 22 percent favor more services and higher taxes. The second is that Barack Obama's persuasive powers are surprisingly weak. His advocacy seems to have moved Americans in the opposite of the intended direction. Obama first came to national attention in 2004 by promising to heal partisan, ideological and racial divisions. Like the other two Democratic presidents elected in the last 40 years .....
