POPSBarefoot Ted reviews the new Vibram FiveFingers Trek Planning to get myself a pair. More: Suggested retail in the US is $125 for the KSO Trek. Premium Kangaroo hide is not cheap. The shoes can be machine washed (be careful here as the leather can bleed, so wash alone or with dark colors on a gentle cycle). The shoes should be air dried out of direct sun and away from a heat source (strong sun or drying near a heater source could cause the leather to shrink and pull away from the bottom, causing sole separation or de-lamination).

POPSnetherlands given- just a regular-rock-and not a moon rock- the rock's provenance goes back to 1969, when William Drees, the late prime minister of the Netherlands, received it as a gift from former US ambassador Middendorf. The worthless rock was presented to the prime minister during a visit by the Apollo 11 astronauts shortly after the first moon landing- gawd! what were they thinking?!!! this is bad!

POPSObama, Minions cave in to Big Coal, Mountaintop Mining
Gawd what a buncha hypocrites and LIARS they are becoming. More: And EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson said this year that the agency had "considerable concern" about the projects. She pledged that her agency would "use the best science and follow the letter of the law in ensuring we are protecting our environment." Soon afterward, the agency blocked six major mountaintop projects in West Virginia, Kentucky and Ohio. But this month, after White House meetings with coal companies and advocates such as Rahall and West Virginia Gov. Joe Manchin, the EPA gave the green light to at least two dozen projects. "It was a big disappointment," said Joan Mulhern, a lawyer for Earthjustice, an environmental law firm that has led court challenges to mountaintop removal. Mulhern charged that the EPA "blew off" Jackson's earlier promises that the agency would adhere to science and conduct an open process. Ed Hopkins, a top Sierra Club official, said that some of the projects that obtained

POPSBillO the Clown launches another falafel attack on the evil 'liberal smear machine' Besides the eliminationist quality of referring to other people as insects, O'Reilly produces zero evidence -- beyond Amanda Terkel's appearance on Countdown the night before, which is evidence of nothing other than Amanda's availability to be interviewed -- that there is a "relationship" with NBC. It's pure conjecture on O'Reilly's part. Meanwhile, his claim that Terkel "harmed a rape victim and her family" was flatly false.

POPSModus operandi of a pre-9/11 Israeli "art student" revealed But Gawd forbid if anyone invetigates GAWD'S CHOSEN. These creatures compromise US security, are the closest to solving the crime of our history, but instead the US investigates everyone else BUT these creatures. If ANYONE should be at Guantanamo, these creatures should be first in line. Like the former Italian president said, everybody in the intelligence community knows that 911 was an inside job by Mossad.

POPSSC: Land of Gawd? Are these folks so brain dead that they just don't get it? Evidently not. They keep trying to inject their own particular superstition into government and they keep failing. Reminds me of the adage of the crazy person persisting in the same activity and expecting differing results.

POPSIs it real or is it Photoshop? Some amazing photoshopped images. The scary part? Well, I just clipped the ones that "looked" like they could be real. Photoshop is a remarkable tool in the hands of skilled and creative people. But gawd, it could be also used to convince us of a reality that does not exist.
