POPSGraph: Health Insurance Company Profits But it's easier to bitch and moan about these "immoral" profits when you don't have the data right in front of you, I understand. But don't see anyone complaining about John Kerry's net worth at $168 million? - not me at least.

POPS The Sordid Story Of A Global Con ~ (Warming) 
The second was a tree ring curve from the Yamal Peninsula in Siberia, compiled by UK scientist Keith Briffa. Briffa had published a paper in 1995 claiming that the medieval period actually contained the coldest year of the millennium. But this claim depended on just three tree ring records (called cores) from the Polar Urals. Later, a colleague of his named F. H. Schweingruber produced a much larger sample from the Polar Urals, but it told a very different story: The medieval era was actually quite warm and the late 20th century was unexceptional. Briffa and Schweingruber never published those data, instead they dropped the Polar Urals altogether from their climate reconstruction papers. In its place they used a new series that Briffa had calculated from tree ring data from the nearby Yamal Peninsula that had a pronounced Hockey Stick shape: relatively flat for 900 years then sharply rising in the 20th century. … But an even more disquieting discovery soon came t

POPSA post by @steverubel helps me clarify my thoughts on bound/unbound media.
All spokes and no hub - I love that. It's also one of the truest, most insightful, and accurate statements I've read in a while. The destination web is dying - at least for content producers. I think I have pounded this drum before but I think it's a point that needs pounding. The following is cut from an email exchange I had recently (in relation to this article) - it outlines a misreading that I think most legacy publishers are caught in the throes of - namely the misreading of the bound to unbound media shift as a print to digital shift: ---------------- Thinking of the transition that's underway as a shift from print to digital is dangerously misleading. This is more than a simple shift in output technology - it's a slow yet dramatic rewiring of the information ecology in such a way that the previous command and control model becomes less effective and less profitable with each passing day. In order to combat that traditional media companies should re-frame the transit

POPSPresidential Job Approval rating "If we allow 'cap-and-trade' to become law and the National Health Care Act to become law and a comprehensive amnesty bill to become law -- all of those things are transformational," the congressman points out. "I believe they are irreversible. And I think the American people are exactly right to be very concerned."

POPS'throwing the bums back in' on a continual basis
As the Incumbistani do have to stand for re-election from time to time, although often in 'safe' districts that their parties have gerrymandered into existence to protect those 'safe' seats, most of that is a rubber stamp affair with those backers who get goodies from the Incumbistani government wanting to show up to continue the goody stream, while those not getting goodies feel that they are left out and, soon, unrepresented by their 'Representative' who has the vested interest of those who gain from his or her votes to get goodies to them as a higher principle than the rest of the plebians there. My initial feeling was that it had been a long time since there was even a 30% turnover in Congress, and I was right. The last times that happened in the post-'Progressive' era were: 1904, 1912-1916, 1922, 1934. As the top graph's red line is percentage, the startling artifact is that all Congresses prior to 1902 had never REACHED a 70% return rate.

POPSRearranging the Deck Chairs
Meanwhile, Tax Revenues Have Plummeted: "Tax revenue for the first three quarters of 2009 has fallen by approximately $350 billion, or 17 percent compared to the same period last year... Unemployment benefits have more than doubled, Medicaid spending has grown by a quarter and Medicare spending has increased by 11 percent." The S&P 500 is wildly overvalued using any conventional measure: The S&P 500's price-to-earnings (PE) is over 140 today. It was over 100 during the first quarter of 2009, "a level never before reached in the index's history". 'Cash for Clunkers' is a Disaster: While the sycophants of stimulus are crowing about an 11.5 million unit annualized sales rate for (for July and August), 80% of the top-selling models are foreign. Typical of Politburo-style, centralized planning efforts, the unintended consequences of the program have yet to be felt; "..what of the lower-income Americans who depended on those cars - the clunkers - to be able to afford any . . .

POPSDEBTOR NATION: Geithner Tells Congress to Increase the Debt--Again! Geithner fronts from within the Treasury for the Fed banksters, who tell Congress, what to do. (Remember Geithner was the head of the New York Federal Reserve Bank before Treasury Secretary): "Congress has never failed to raise the debt limit when necessary," Mr. Geithner said. CONSIDER: If you are a debtor, you owe someone, and are under obligation to them. Now ask the question--"who is the U.S. government in debt to?" And there you will find, by logical consequence, the Masters of the government, to whom they must bow. This is non-partisan issue. Republicans in particular should see on the graph what Bush did , largely due to the "war on terrorism", which Obama continues, but now adding socialist government spending too.
