POPSProfile Of A Cyber Stalker
Cyberstalkers may research individuals to feed their obsessions and curiosity. Conversely, the acts of cyberstalkers may become more intense, such as repeatedly instant messaging their targets. More commonly they will post defamatory or derogatory statements about their stalking target on web pages, message boards and in guest books designed to get a reaction or response from their victim, thereby initiating contact. In some cases, they have been known to create fake blogs in the name of the victim containing defamatory or pornographic content. When prosecuted, many stalkers have unsuccessfully attempted to justify their behavior based on their use of public forums, as opposed to direct contact. Once they get a reaction from the victim, they will typically attempt to track or follow the victim's internet activity. Classic cyberstalking behavior includes the tracing of the victim's IP address in an attempt to verify their home or place of employment. A 2007 study, led

POPSAttention 95% of Americans: Here Are Some More Taxes From Which You Should Probably Avert Your Eyes " Capping the tax break on itemized deductions at 28 percent, as President Barack Obama had proposed, or freezing the top deduction rate at 35 percent when the Bush tax cuts expire in 2010. The first scenario would raise $168 billion, while the second would collect $90 billion. " Issue tax credit bonds to pay for the proposed Medicaid expansion, raising $75 billion. " Charge fees to pharmaceutical manufacturers, bringing in as much as $20 billion, and insurance providers, raising $75 billion. " Raise taxes on sodas and sugary drinks. A 3-cent hike could pick up $30 billion, and a 10-cent hike could make $100 billion. This one already appears out of favor: Many senators have specifically ruled out the sugar tax, and a Senate Democratic source said it was the one option that was clearly not gaining traction with committee members.

POPSMore Whose Line Is It Anyway than you knew existed online Some funny snarky comment in the thread: The moment at which I realized the gulf between the hosts of the British and American versions was when during a game where the players had to recount some story in the style of a particular author, Josie Lawrence (ha-cha-cha) announced she was going to do it in the style of Louisa May Alcott. By was of explanation, she mentioned that Alcott was "notable for writing 'Little Women' and 'Little Men.'" Clive Anderson added, "Yes, and little else." Can anyone imagine Drew Carey pulling that one off? Clive Anderson certainly had some quick come backs to some of the audience member suggestions and his verbal sparring with Greg Proops was always amusing: Audience Member: Masturbation! Clive: There was a cry of masturbation but I think you're on your own with that one. Audience Member: Premature ejaculation Clive: Come again?

POPSThere's No Klingon Word for Hello Most languages created for fictional worlds involve simple vocabulary substitutions, such as moodge for man in A Clockwork Orange, or meaningless streams of noise, like the high-pitched jabbering of the Ewoks in Return of the Jedi. Klingon is something altogether different. There is a logic behind it; a linguist doing field research among Klingon speakers would be able to work out the system and describe it as he would an exotic indigenous tongue. This is not surprising, considering that Klingon was created by Marc Okrand, a linguist whose dissertation was a grammar of a now-extinct Native American language.
