POPSBibles by Victoria Jackson Born Aug. 2,1959 in Miami, Florida, Victoria was raised in a Bible-believing, piano-playing, gymnastic home with no TV. Her dad was a gym coach, so she competed in gymnastics from ages 5-18. Cheerleader.. homecoming queen.. attended Florida Bible College; received a gymnastic scholarship to Furman University, attended Auburn University one year, and ended up in Hollywood, CA via summer stock in Alabama, where she met Johnny Crawford (The Rifleman) who promptly put her in his night club act and sent her a one-way ticket to the show-biz capital. Following her 20 appearances with Johnny Carson, she starred in many movies and TV shows, most notably six seasons on "Saturday Night Live." It's a shame SNL has ruined their show. There was a time when it catered to all audiences.

POPSGermany’s War of Words in Afghanistan It’s war taking place along the Hindu Kush, he explained to the minister. There are good and not-so-good reasons for the German government to shy away from using the word “war” in connection with the killing and dying German soldiers are doing in Afghanistan. It certainly can’t just be the accepted definition of war that is causing the government to so stubbornly reject the term. After all, war can " but doesn’t have to be " a conflict between countries. History tells us that there were innumerable other conflicts that have been referred to as wars. And the Americans have used the word for their operations in Afghanistan for some time. Shouldn’t the deciding factor be how the German soldiers define what they are experiencing? “If we were to talk about war, we would just be focusing on the military dimension,” says Jung to explain his linguistic choice. Apparently, the idea is to not encourage a military escalation with a verbal escalation.

POPSIsraeli Left: "Decide on a Jewish State OR a Democratic one"!!!
This whole block, which has just been defined as "the left", is represented now by 14 parliamentary seats out of the 120 seats in the Israeli Knesset. To them one may hesitantly add four out of the 13 representatives of the Labour party in the newly elected Knesset, who are close in their political stance to Meretz. Hence 18 out of 120 is what's left of the Israeli left, and even that only if one is willing to engage in some intellectual gymnastics and expand the notion of "left" way beyond its traditional boundaries. As for the Labour party, labelling it a traitor for joining a rightwing government involves a certain amount of wishful thinking regarding its true nature to start with. The answer to the question "when has the Labour party transformed?" is "never", when it comes to its patterns of dealing with Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and "in the mid 1980s, just like most Labour parties in the west" when addressing its stance on social and economic issues. On society and economy,

POPSIn The Crystal Ball Some predictions are vaguly on target. Most respond through the lens of 1900 and offner no new insights. I suspect our predictions will seem as naive in 2100.

POPSFascinating This is a movie I'm looking forward to watching in 2009. I was a boy when the original Star Trek came to the small screen and I'm hoping that spirit will be recaptured in the new film. Love long, and prosper.

POPSDecline of the Decathlete I would add an additional factor to the decline, actually. Giving everyone the same gold medal. The person who wins the trampoline -- and look, I'm not saying trampoline is easy or that I could do it -- gets the exact same gold medal as the winner of the decathlon. The best events should get better medals. The winner of the decathlon, the gymnastics all-around, the 100-meter, the marathon, etc.

POPSA face you can trust
When deciding who to trust, the research suggests, people use shortcuts. For example, they look at faces. According to recent work by Nikolaas Oosterhof and Alexander Todorov of Princeton's psychology department, we form our first opinions of someone's trustworthiness through a quick physiognomic snapshot. By studying people's reactions to a range of artificially-generated faces, Oosterhof and Todorov were able to identify a set of features that seemed to engender trust. Working from those findings, they were able to create a continuum: faces with high inner eyebrows and pronounced cheekbones struck people as trustworthy, faces with low inner eyebrows and shallow cheekbones untrustworthy. In a paper published in June, they suggested that our unconscious bias is a byproduct of more adaptive instincts: the features that make a face strike us as trustworthy, if exaggerated, make a face look happy - with arching inner eyebrows and upturned mouths - and an exaggerated "untrustworthy"
