POPSCongress Blinds The FBI These predictive models get better as the quality of the information going into them improves. As more terrorists are captured and interrogated, and their computers and data is translated, the predictions become more accurate. No one harasses researchers for using data mining, or makes fun of building supercomputers with graphics processors (often the same ones found in video game consoles, making super-fast computers cheap enough to be used in a combat zone to make life saving predictions), when it saves troops from getting killed. The FBI has been unable to make this point to Congress, mainly because some key legislators are ideologically opposed to data mining, and refuse to acknowledge the widespread success of the technique in civilians and military sectors.

POPSStrategies for Dealing With IT Complexity Often times, IT looks for the solution to a cingular problem without considering how it fits into the whole picture. The result of doing this can be crippling as time goes on. Every one-off solution requires someone to administer it and probably requires some type of integration. Over time, you end up weaving yourself into a complex web of mini solutions that make it virtually impossible to respond to the business needs.

POPSRise of the Inflatable Car Just when you thought the boasting from XP couldn’t get any more far-fetched, the cars also have the added advantage of being able to be driven off a cliff without serious injury and the capability to float in the event of flood or tsunami. But surely they’ll just burst? Well, actually no they won’t. Not only are they constructed out of the same polymer materials used to cushion NASA's rovers when they landed on Mars; multiple chambers will protect the vehicle from just popping like a balloon. Ludicrous as they might sound, these cars may well be the future of driving as we know it. At around $10,000, these vehicles should be in production by 2010 so don’t be surprised if a miniature bouncy castle on wheels overtakes you on the motorway in a few years time.

POPSCapitalism: Govt. Regulation Is Stifling Energy Innovation You can't maximize profits when you pay too much for R&D and the energy industry is run by interests who would rather make as much money as possible than provide forward thinking innovation. This is the continuing curse of capitalism. Capitalism encourages closed research. It's time we started thinking about shifting necessary industry away from this model and more towards open source. Everyone benefits when we share knowledge. Only the elite win when knowledge is corralled and controlled.

POPSWater-Fuel Car -- Too Good To Be True? Japanese company, Genepax has claimed that it has created a new eco-friendly car that can run on nothing but water. The company did not disclose much but they use some process to produce hydrogen from water, used as fuel for a hydrogen fuel cell to run the car. This idea, however might be "too good to be true".

POPSBacteria make major evolutionary shift in the lab In the meantime, the experiment stands as proof that evolution does not always lead to the best possible outcome. Instead, a chance event can sometimes open evolutionary doors for one population that remain forever closed to other populations with different histories.

POPSCharging By The Byte To Curb Internet Traffic
“Based on current trends, total bandwidth in the AT&T network will increase by four times over the next three years,” the company said in a statement. All three companies say that placing caps on broadband use will ensure fair access for all users. Internet metering is a throwback to the days of dial-up service, but at a time when video and interactive games are becoming popular, the experiments could have huge implications for the future of the Web. Even if the caps are far above the average users’ consumption, their mere existence could cause users to reduce their time online. Just ask people who carefully monitor their monthly allotments of cellphone minutes and text messages. “As soon as you put serious uncertainty as to cost on the table, people’s feeling of freedom to predict cost dries up and so does innovation and trying new applications,” Vint Cerf, the chief Internet evangelist for Google who is often called the “father of the Internet.”
