POPSShe Looks Real Nice. Good Luck to Him. Powered by a computer under her soft silicone "skin," she employs voice-recognition and speech-synthesis software to answer questions and carry on conversations. She even comes loaded with five distinct "personalities," from Frigid Farrah to Wild Wendy, that can be programmed to suit customers' preferences. Roxxxy won't be available for delivery for several months, but Hines is taking pre-orders through his Web site, TrueCompanion.com, where thousands of men have signed up. "They're like, 'I can't wait to meet her,' " Hines said. "It's almost like the anticipation of a first date." Women have inquired about ordering a sex robot, too. Hines says a female sex therapist even contacted him about buying one for her patients.

POPS(Another) Cancer Cure That Works When there is more money being made from people trying to regain health than anything else, is it any wonder that simple, cheap and highly effective treatments are either not pursued or actively buried by the industry they would destroy? In China in the past, 'physicians' were only paid while their 'patients' were healthy - if they became ill, their doctor had failed in his duty and therefore didnt get paid until they were well again...

POPSDecember 15th: Google Promotes Global Language--Esperanto Today, December 15th, Google's search engine promotes something most have never heard of, until now--Zamenhof Day. This is Google's Utopian Earth, where one invented Global Language (replacing English) apparently, is what THEY desire. Apparently Google is among "users of Esperanto". Of course to reverse course and revive One World Government, a return to building the Tower of Babel, One Language is the goal. Google Earth is not just a name apparently, but their ambition which this hints at.

POPSWhat the Inventor of the Flu Shot NOW Thinks of the Vaccine... What Can You Learn From History? The last time we trusted industry and their appointed government lackeys about the swine flu vaccine, the vaccine ended up killing 300 times more people than the flu itself! It was 1976, and an outbreak of swine flu supposedly threatened the lives of millions. But instead of the flu killing millions of people, it claimed ONE life, whereas the vaccine turned out to contain the real danger. Twenty five people died from severe pulmonary complications after receiving the swine flu vaccine, and about 500 cases of Guillain-Barre Syndrome were reported after vaccination. Some 300 claims were later filed by families of Guillain-Barre Syndrome victims who died from the disease.

POPSH1N1 and religion: ritual improvisation and public health A roundup of some changes made to ritual and liturgy in Montréal, Toronto, and elsewhere in Canada as strategies of counteracting the spread of the flu. The piece has a slightly puffy, amused tone, but I think this is pretty interesting, especially for what it implies about the value of ritual and community as opposed to discourse and information (e.g., if the epidemic gets worse, expect churches to tell everyone to stay home and get their sermons via podcast).

POPSTom defends Scientology "Lies", said Tom flatly. "L. Ron Hubbard was a great man, the inventor of atomic power, the discoverer of seven continents - previously only inhabited by pre-clears - and he's not actually dead, he's on another planet, introducing Dianetics and The Way to Happiness to them. At least those with usable currency." Oprah then thanked him for clearing all that up, and moved on to her next guest, Suzanne Somers and her new book, "How I Kicked Cancer's Ass with the Power of the ThighMaster".

POPSEconomists Search for New Definition of Well-Being
"GDP has increasingly become used as a measure of societal well-being and changes in the structure of the economy and our society have made it an increasingly poor one," Stiglitz told the news agency Bloomberg in a recent interview. "So many things that are important to individuals are not included in GDP." In the model they unveiled last week in Paris, the academics recommend including other factors, such as sustainability and education. Significant Shortcomings Even the inventor of the gross domestic product measure, the late Russian-American economist Simon Kuznets, was aware that the classic method of computing GDP had significant shortcomings. "The welfare of a nation can scarcely be inferred from a measure of national income," he said in 1934. This is because the growth rate says nothing about the distribution of wealth in a country, the state of health of its citizens or their life expectancy. The number provides no information about the cleanliness of rivers or the amo
