POPS'Lost' Amazon tribe a publicity stunt Damn. I wish I had blogged about this. I knew it was a hoax from the start, but sheepishly admit I have no way of proving it. Something about this image reeked of being staged. Only 3 tribesmen and the pose struck by the black-painted woman seems so hollywood. So much about this seems that way. Where are the tribe's scattered effects? Cooking Fires? Children? It was so obviously a staged photo.

POPSMcCain Calls For End To Corn Subsidies For Ethanol In comments published by the Estado de S. Paulo newspaper, McCain also said he would support Brazil's addition to the Group of Eight industrialized nations and lauded the nation's drive to find clean energy sources. White House economic advisers say corn-based ethanol is responsible for just 2 to 3 percent of the overall increase in food prices, which are up more than 40 percent this year over 2007.

POPSScientists find bugs that eat waste and excrete petrol “Our plan is to have a demonstration-scale plant operational by 2010 and, in parallel, we’ll be working on the design and construction of a commercial-scale facility to open in 2011,” says Mr Pal, adding that if LS9 used Brazilian sugar cane as its feedstock, its fuel would probably cost about $50 a barrel.

POPS15 Wackiedt Classified Ads OK. Sometimes things hit a little close to home. For example the Time Travel ad. I grew up in Oak View, CA and in 1976 three men robbed the Wells Fargo bank there at the time. One was found within a day, a second was found dead of exposure within two weeks and the last was never seen again. Sure I am paranoid, Bit what if...

POPSAdjusting A Girl’s Rating Based On Her Nationality Puerto Rico. Add 0.5 points. Absolute animals in bed. I’ve never had a girl tell me her vagina is, in fact, mine. Russia. Minus 1 point. Very similar to Argentine girls in terms of initial coldness and nonstop smoking, but naturally low maintenance… until they get a taste of Western culture. After that all bets are off. South Africa. Add 0.5 points. Wicked, hippie chicks. The kind you want to travel the world with. I’m talking about the white ones with dreadlocks because I’ve never met a black South African girl.

POPS30 Upcoming Movie Sequels to say Why??? Maybe I am jaded from working on movies (and many of them went straight-to-video) but the on;y ones I see with positive potential outside the stars are National Treasure 3, The Descent 2 (read the Book -they may get it right for once!), Ice Age 3 (2 was great no matter what they say), Ghost Rider 2 (It's Cage but it is a damn good story too), The Untouchables: Capone Rising (a prequel to the 1987 hit) and The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor (face it folks, Archeology and Pulp-Style cliffhangers will rock because of Indiana Jones!) My biggest disappointment on this list? Easily, People Under the Stairs 2. It was a horrible movie in 87 and I do not see how a sequel will help.
