POPSAmelia Earhart's Final Resting Place Believed Found According to Gillespie, who is set to embark on a new $500,000 Nikumaroro expedition next summer, the two became castaways and eventually died there. "We know that in 1940 British Colonial Service officer Gerald Gallagher recovered a partial skeleton of a castaway on Nikumaroro. Unfortunately, those bones have now been lost," Gillespie said. The archival record by Gallagher suggests that the bones were found in a remote area of the island, in a place that was unlikely to have been seen during an aerial search. A woman's shoe, an empty bottle and a sextant box whose serial numbers are consistent with a type known to have been carried by Noonan were all found near the site where the bones were discovered. "The reason why they found a partial skeleton is that many of the bones had been carried off by giant coconut crabs. There is a remote chance that some of the bones might still survive deep in crab burrows," Gillespie said.

POPSWhere's Waldo? "I guess you could cut off the battery packs," he said. "But it's so specialized it really doesn't have many other applications." There are two other drones with similar capabilities at Mote but they belong to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration -- and there are no funds available for them to perform Waldo's mission. "We'd have to go back to sending people out in boats to collect water samples," he said. "That's not a very efficient way to do it." Waldo, a scientific robot used to detect red tide, was last heard from on Monday. Mote is offering a $500 reward. Well it had a pretty long working life I suppose. It was probably eaten by a Great White Shark. That's my guess, anyway.

POPSrestaurant: Pho Ga Hai Phong, Oakland
New restaurant in our neighborhood. Tasty food. More: Since age 9, Mommy had to cook all the meals for her entire family of eight, because her parents were out working hard to catch fish on their boat all day. She learned to make soup broth and other simple meals by wandering around and watching the neighbors cook. When she was 13 years old, she learned to make pho and honed her Vietnamese culinary skills…Mommy often worked in various restaurants…as a dishwasher or assistant in the kitchen, where she observed the chefs preparing exquisite dishes…It was Mommy’s dream to be the head chef of a restaurant where she could determine the menu items and share her home-style cooking and serve her family's favorite dishes, such as Pho Ga, Bun Rieu (vermicelli noodles with shrimp, crab, and egg soup), clam chowder, BBQ short ribs, and New York steak with everyone. This is why the Pho Ga Hai Phong menu offers 3 distinct cuisines: Vietnamese, Chinese, and American.

POPSDolphins do good without even trying - smile Great story of what a young girl learned from an encounter with a dolphin. Wouldn't it be nice if wannabe nature engineers "learned" as much from their encounters with nature. Then we wouldn't really have to worry about alligator-tomato mutants eating Cleveland.

POPSWar Is Hell "Palin doesn't just line people up on different sides of an issue; she turns them against each other. It's not enough to hate her; you also have to hate those who don't. Or, if you like her, the attacks on her make it difficult to imagine having any use at all for her enemies. Palin somehow makes the culture wars personal; she's their ultimate symbol. And war is hell, no matter what form it takes."

POPSTaking High Anxiety To Another Level ] loves to "hike". So off we go a few weekends ago on what I would fondly call a "forest march". No matter, I got to hold her hand (even if I did keep looking over my shoulder the entire time) Anyways, we get to this damn mountain top like an hour later and the view is magnificent and I'm kicking my arse for forgetting my digital camera when she decides to look over the edge. I completely freaked out because: 1. She cannot walk through her living room without tripping on something. 2. I felt dizzy 20 feet away safely hanging onto a electric tower. Turns out there is a simple explanation for this! “As you age, your reaction time slows, you lose confidence in your body’s ability to handle physical demands, your sense of balance maybe is a little off,” said Harold Steinitz, a director of the Anxiety and Stress Disorders Institute of Maryland. “You become aware of that, and it affects you.” BUT, It seems after a while, you forget to be anxious.
