POPSNobel Peace Prize Winners Comment: absurd decision on Obama makes a mockery of the Nobel peace prize The award of this year’s Nobel peace prize to President Obama will be met with widespread incredulity, consternation in many capitals and probably deep embarrassment by the President himself. Rarely has an award had such an obvious political and partisan intent. It was clearly seen by the Norwegian Nobel committee as a way of expressing European gratitude for an end to the Bush Administration, approval for the election of America’s first black president and hope that Washington will honour its promise to re-engage with the world. Instead, the prize risks looking preposterous in its claims, patronising in its intentions and demeaning in its attempt to build up a man who has barely begun his period in office, let alone achieved any tangible outcome for peace. The pretext for the prize was Mr Obama’s decision to “strengthen international diplomacy and co-operation between peoples”.

POPS10 Reasons to Meet Your Shadow Self Carl Jung, the famous Swiss Psychoanalyst, introduced the concept of the "shadow" side of our personalities. This darker aspect of our selves are the parts we do not like and reject, hide or deny. Others can often see them but we either cannot or choose not to. When we do this, according to Jung, we become imbalanced and suffer. To quote wikipedia: "Jung emphasized the importance of balance and harmony. He cautioned that modern people rely too heavily on science and logic and would benefit from integrating spirituality and appreciation of unconscious realms. He considered the process of individuation necessary for a person to become whole. This is a psychological process of integrating the conscious with the unconscious while still maintaining conscious autonomy. Individuation was the central concept of analytical psychology. " Read the 10 reasons to meet your shadow self, from the blog "GoodBlogging", and find your balance in life and relationships:

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.

POPSChinese Astronaut Speaks Peace in Space Well, if these guys intercept and blow up another satellite, no one is going into space. We, the USA, crashed into a derelict Russian satellite at 1,000's of MPH--alot of pieces and parts here. And the Waldo looking Kim Jung-Il--is out of control. North Korea said they actually put a satellite in space. USA said, "Nope".......We had better be nice to China; the USA will have to beg for rides for the next 5+ years from Russia and maybe China. We'll piss off Russia, I mean former KGB Putin. -------------- Personally, I believe we should keep part of the Shuttle fleet operational until the Ares program is complete. These shuttles were designed for 100 flight services lives and they have only completed a 1/3 of that time. Keep one or two shuttles active and use the remaining as a parts store. Remember the 70's when we didn't have a space program after Apollo and before the Shuttle became operational. NASA is doing it again. Too Much Down Time.
