POPSSmile! It Could Make You Happier It is believed that what we feel on the inside is reflected outwardly. Can we assume that it can also be the other way around. Does it mean that if we smile even when we feel down and out, we would feel better? The human brain is still a mystery and a lot is still needed to be discovered.

POPSMilitary Service Training Ground For Sexual Predation This article is quite comprehensive in scope and deserves a full reading. A few more paragraphs from it follow this remark. "Yet for decades, in spite of the terrible numbers, the military has managed with astonishing success to get away with responding to grievances like Krause's with silence, or denial, or by blaming "a few bad apples." But when individual soldiers take the blame, the system gets off the hook. And it can be shown that the patterns of military sex crimes are old and widespread -- for generations, military service has transformed large numbers of American boys into sexual predators. So it seems reasonable to ask if perhaps there is something about military culture or training or experience that can be identified as causative, and then, perhaps, changed."

POPSSometimes The Flesh Is Pretty Damn Smart The human condition has long been seen as a battle of good versus evil, reason versus emotion, will versus appetite, superego versus id. The iconic image, from a million movies and cartoons, is of a person with an angel over one shoulder and the devil over the other. The alternative view keeps the angel and the devil, but casts aside the person in between. I wouldn’t want to live next door to someone whose behavior was dominated by his short-term selves, and I wouldn’t want to be such a person, either. But there is also something wrong with people who go too far in the other direction. We benefit, intellectually and personally, from the interplay between different selves, from the balance between long-term contemplation and short-term impulse."

POPSLove makes you creative. Sex makes you analytical. This was a very interesting article that makes practical sense. When you are in love, you see the big picture and open to experiences. Sexual interest gets you thinking on the subject at hand. I don't need to go into detail, do I?

POPSCauses of Anxiety: An Overview Anxiety is an emotion that everyone will experience at different times in their life.

Anxiety can naturally come and go throughout the day depending on the person’s job and family life, but it’s important to know that there is a difference between normal anxiety and anxiety disorders.

POPSReason & Intuition There is a lot more that is interesting at the source. The pendulum is constantly swinging "intuition" then "reason" somewhere in the middle is the "still point" and this is where wisdom is found.

POPSBook Lovers Unite! I've had the same thought as Adrianna many times in my life. Whenever I hear of someone complaining about being bored or having to stand in line somewhere or otherwise waste time I'm tempted to respond to them that I think they're crazy. That's more time to read. Of course that's because I love to read. But because of this gift, I, like Adrianna, am never bored, rarely frustrated and relish long lines. Judging by the number of people griping these days maybe a trip to the book store would be a solution to their frustrations.

POPSIrony of Obama's Opposition And now, as President, Mr. Obama consistently speaks of solving problems by using "what works" rather than employing ideological approaches. This too is reasoning and judgment, rather than resort to theory without consideration for the facts on the ground. It does not mean that the President will not consider free-market economics, on the one hand, or government intervention, on the other, but he looks for solutions that take into account the myriad of consequences rather than simply going with a principle, results be damned. What is ironic, although maybe karmicly inevitable, is that this king of reason is being confronted with logic's nemises -- emotion, belief and intentional deception. Take, for example, Mr. Obama's first acts as President. The economy was diving into a deeper recession. The financial industry was frozen. The President supported a huge rescue program.

POPSDanes Explain Why Obama Failed I don't quite see it exactly as the article expresses it. The people I have talked to, don't see it as Obama failing, as much as America in general, failing. Obama's (USA's) appearance here left many with a sense, that America somehow felt entitled to get the games, merely because they wanted them. Now they seem "in shock" because their wishes weren't accommodated, obviously disregarding the fact that Rio deserved to win. I am very happy on behalf of Rio and I think they're gonna put on a hell of a show. .:) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGfJ0_KMiro

POPSDistinguishing Science and Pseudoscience # Penetrating political systems, it justifies atrocities in the name of racial purity # Penetrating the educational system, it can drive out science and sensibility; # In the field of health, it dooms thousands to unnecessary death or suffering # Penetrating religion, it generates fanaticism, intolerance, and holy war # Penetrating the communications media, it can make it difficult for voters to obtain factual information on important public issues

POPSWe can feel without seeing... This study really amazes me. It seems to suggest that blind people are able to react to something that is shown to them even though they don't 'see' it. I suggest reading the entire article to try to understand - though i must admit i still don't really get it.

POPSThesis: How American Media Covers "Terror Plot" Stories This week's stories about alleged plots in NY and Colorado, etc. are beyond pure journalist reporting, and have a very inflammatory slant to them consistent with this objective and scholarly thesis. The media has a power that is far too great to overlook when reading or watching about such news. While Bush (justly) gets the blame for tricking Americans into war in Iraq, he could not have done it without the MSM media. Neither could have Wilson or FDR for that matter.
