with the expectations of the sponsors. Like the royal favourites of mediaeval times, they soar in the air on a zephyr of preferment, only to get too close to the sun and plunge to earth. Which brings us to: Secrecy In the security of powerful patronage some of the new brigade began to think that they were above not only the procedures of science, but of all other academic disciplines as well. In the case of the notorious Hockey Stick, for example, they claimed that knowledge from history, art, literature, archaeology etc. was all wrong and that their computer manipulation of such tenuous data as tree rings established that the Little Ice Age and the Mediaeval Warm Period never happened. The most powerful patrons of all, the UN, seized on the results and made them the main feature of one of their apocalyptic IPCC reports on the coming climate disaster. One of the first tests of any scientific work is to pose the question “Can the results be reproduced?”

...who requested anonymity as he is not authorized to speak publicly. “The motive behind the massacre appears to be rooted in his ideology, an ideology which was emboldened by online activity,” added this source. As indicated by a ABC News Online article, intelligence sources reportedly had a level of knowledge that HASAN was in communication with al Qaeda assets abroad. The source speaking to this author confirmed that report but went further, stating that this and information similar but not directly related to such communications became a “political issue” between government agencies and officials “at the policy making levels” of the administration. According to this source, the now infamous pre-9/11 walls erected within government agencies have returned, “but this time they are higher and stronger.” “There is an unwillingness to address ‘delicate’ intelligence and security matters by sharing information outside of the beltway and that directive comes right from the top.

POPSAnatomy of a Soccer [Football] Player Of course, nobody is saying that football hooliganism is cool, what really gets our goat is that while TV networks will report on instances of hooliganism, they never have the nuance to tell us who won. For those of us who like to watch football riots, the only way of judging is by measuring which side conceded the most arrests. The higher the arrest count, the more honorable the victory.

POPSMore CIA Torture Tactics Revealed So, now we hear we were poking out eyes with power drills. But, (sniff), don't think we're bad people or anything. Several points come to mind. 1. The facts could be even worse than the reports. 2. The victim here was in a secret prison for 4 years, at least...but he's never had a trial, a lawyer, charges made against him...all we know is that men threatening to poke out his eyes with a power drill say he is a bad man. And them? Black opt torture with no justice in secret prisons...they are the good men? 3. I guess this means the torture trials are coming. 4. One "hope" of freedom, knowledge and democracy is that it MAY be self-healing. If these things were kept secret, the abuses would get worse. Somethings really sick and twisted in this USA post-WWII era of non-stop, endless worldwide wars. How long can they tell us this is for freedom and democracy? (Or to rid the world of nasty drugs, coming up as an excuse now and then). Yep. Freedom isn't free.

POPSRobert Novak, Giant of Journalism RIP Kenneth Tomlinson at Human Events, which ran the Evans-Novak Report until it was ended last year, confirms that the conservative reporter Robert Novak has died after a year-long battle with cancer. Tim Carney, Novak’s last collaborator on the report, has a remembrance up. Novak would often tell aspiring journalists to pick a different field if their goal was to change the world. But, by simply aiming to inform and to do his job as well he could, Novak changed the lives of his readers and those of us blessed to work with him. Update: Lynn Sweet confirms it: “He was someone who loved being a journalist, love journalism and loved his country and loved his family,” Novak’s wife, Geraldine, told the Sun-Times on Tuesday.

POPSUNESCO: Invasion seriously harmed historic Babylon The report said steel stakes were driven into ancient walls, which included fragments with inscriptions from the time of King Nebuchadnezzar II, who ruled 2 1/2 millennia ago and is credited with building the Hanging Gardens of Babylon — one of the Seven Wonders of the World. A helicopter pad, roads and parking lots were built, and heavy vehicles devastated ancient brick roads, the report said. The symbolic dragon-snakes adorning many of the structures have been partly smashed. Today there's no trace of the legendary Hanging Gardens. But no large-scale exploration has been done at Babylon in nearly a century, and according to the UNESCO report, archaeologists believe "much remains buried beneath the earth and there is still a great deal to discover." The rest of the article squabbles about who is at fault. This sickens me. A wealth of history and knowledge destroyed. so sad

POPSProfit & Privatizing vs Survival If some firms have their way, they could claim ownership of the more than 2,000 varieties of potatoes and then genetically modify them for profit, thereby shutting off the Peruvian people who share their knowledge and assure survival of all varieties.

It is the ability to nourish your children and send them to school where their education not only equips them for employment but reinforces their knowledge and understanding of their cultural inheritance. It is the prospect of genuine employment and good health: a life of choices and opportunity, free from discrimination.
