POPS"DARPA Wants to Override Evolution to Make Immortal Synthetic Organisms" more (at source): Unsurprisingly, molecular biologists have weighed in with huge caveats and raised fingers of objection. First, they say that DARPA has the wrong idea about hoping to overcome evolution's supposed randomness, and that evolution really represents a super-efficient design algorithm. Then there's the problem of guaranteeing immortal life for any biological creature in the first place -- just look here and here at some really smart people who have yet to find that fountain of youth.

POPSThe Two Wrong Ways To Make a Tablet But what about the Courier? If there is such a thing as a "third" option, it's what Microsoft dreamed up over the last year. Microsoft, already has its fingers in both ends of the pie, but Courier represents a truly different envisioning. Could the tablet that we've really been waiting for come from Redmond? Maybe, but at the moment the fate of Courier isn't clear at all.

POPSWe Don't Need No Stinkin' Trial! A famous movie line is from a Mexican bandit who is asked for his badge (he had claimed his gang to be lawful police). "Badges!? Badges!?" the bandit says. "We don't need no stinkin' badges!" Bang. Bang. It seems we just can't afford any 'stinkin' trial,' for this accused terrorist, KSM. I mean, opponents say, What if he's found innocent? (one problem) What if he uses the trial to say something? (2nd problem) What if having a trial makes us a target? (another problem) Can we afford a trial? But he's already been in jail 8years, isn't it a little late? He's been tortured a lot, which we can't admit? Trial? We don't need no stinkin' trial. Bush tried to set up fake kangaroo court military tribunals. They failed Maybe we should just cut his tongue out, break all his fingers and encase him in an Iron Mask. The Sheikh in the Iron Mask -- like that French story. Then the mystery would be forever: Who is this guy? What did he do? Any evidence? We

POPSEnglish You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language where a house can burn up as it burns down, And in which you fill in a form By filling it out And a bell is only heard once it goes! English was invented by people, not computers, And it reflects the creativity of the human race (Which of course isn’t a race at all.) That is why: When the stars are out they are visible, But when the lights are out they are invisible. And why it is that when I wind up my watch It starts, But when I wind up this poem It ends. credits to http://www.c4vct.com/kym/humor/esl.htm

POPSJunk Science Used to Shift Blame for Bird Flu Away from Human Actions Let's see, migratory birds catch avian flu from the millions and millions of chickens, ducks and geese who brew up new versions of flu leading up to the celebration of Lunar New Year when several billion celebrants just have to have poultry for their celebration and to assure a prosperous new year. The brewing of new viruses takes place in huge live markets that also house pigs raided for the same purpose - celebrating. That's the traditional path to new flu. Add to that, the explosion of the global poultry market in the last 15 years and now you have new flus brewing worldwide, not just in Asia. This is the result of on-the-cheap industrialized poultry farming by humans. So let's blame it on migrating birds and not us because because we don't want to change and have out fingers crossed we don't bring about a global killing pandemic.

POPSAnn Coulter's Beauty Secret Finding a sufficient number of uncontaminated maidens, even on the campus of a conservative bible college, proved to be a chore. "Yeah," observed Ceci. "It was a lot of work, but it was worth it. Ann is my role model." It’s like somebody saying, ‘Hey! Spreading rumors that all the smart girls are lesbians and then locking yourself in your dorm room and masturbating to Whittaker Chamber’s Witness is actually a job. We’ll pay you for that!’ Asked if the arduous, daylong blood drive was worth it, Ceci was unequivocal. "Absolutely! For one thing, Ann and I have become very friendly as a result. And for another, I’m pretty sure that if she’d gone one more day without blood she would have started killing my roommates." And how does Ann Coulter herself feel about this outpouring of admiration and blood? "Ahh," she said, splashing the ruddy, life-giving fluid over her bony chest, "This is the life. Or the undeath, anyway."
