POPSThe terrorists at Club Gitmo don't want to leave Obvious. What else more could they want? They have personal chefs, TVs, remote controls, beach volleyball, a library overlooking the ocean, scenic views, free laundry service, new prayer rugs to pray to Allah.....and they're getting the H1N1 vaccine before you. The libs want them out of Cuban Clown College as long as they're nowhere near their Manhattan penthouses or vacation spots in the Vineyard. As if splashing water on their damn faces is going to scare them off.....PUH-LEASE. Gitmo should be rebranded so that liberals wouldn’t reflexively scream “TORTURE!” every time they heard it’s name. How about "Misfired Martyrs Motel" or "Viva la Incarceracion!"?

POPSI live without cash - and I manage just fine. I understand his point of view - but there have to be better solutions. We can't all just go into hibernation. And of course, detractors of this plan will say that the caravan and laptop etc. wouldn't be there for him if we were all sitting in his position - who would manufacture them and how? He is very right about the disconnect between creation and purchase of products though - and contaminating the environment. All other animals on this planet understand that the environment is their only connection to life on this planet..... there must a solution for human beings too.

POPSOldest cat in America dies, shocking discovery made Health officials called to the scene with Human Control Services reported that the conditions were quite distressing. "There were far to many old women living here, and the food provided was inadequate.", said Agent Fluffy. "The water in the tub for them was stale. And their litter boxes were atrocious." The 72 old women were rounded up and taken to a "no-kill" shelter in Dallas, pending the reading of Caterack's will. It is believed that the estate is to be left to these old women, many of them now feral, all with some health problems. Regrettably, the descendants of Caterack are expected to contest that, so authorities are broadcasting a plea to any other cats out there who can accomodate two or three of these old women. "They are good old women", said Agent Fluffy. "They've been fairly well kept all in all. They need good homes, and lots of love." Cats interested can call 1-800-OLD-LADY.

POPSUusi julkaisu on tulossa jossa sisältö on ikiaikaisen "vanhaa" kuvilla höystettyä. On hyvä kuitenkin muistaa että elävä usko tulee kuulemisen kautta, jossa sana muuttuu eläväksi vedeksi ja leiväksi.

POPSWhat's with all the zombies?
Call me a zombie pundit, but I agree with "World War Z" author Max Brooks' suggestion that the concurrent rise of zombie pop and political cultures is no coincidence. "Zombies are an apocalyptic threat, we are living in times of apocalyptic anxiety (and) we need a vessel in which to coalesce those anxieties," he says. In fact, I'll go out on a severed limb and take it further: If zombies specifically represent the apocalyptic downsides of immortalized mindlessness, then today’s zombie zeitgeist is not merely a result of scary quandaries created by stupidity. It is a reaction to both those problems and the sense that they can never be thwarted. Here we are, a year after a financial implosion that should have driven a stake in the heart of free market fundamentalism. Here we are, a year after an election that was supposed to pour holy water on Wall Street vampires, exorcise the economy's demons and challenge the ancient mummies of neoconservative foreign policy. Yet here we are,

POPS Something In The Water
Camp kids have cancer, disorders Jerry Ensminger, a 24-year Marine Corps veteran, said his daughter, Jane, born in 1976 at Camp Lejeune, was diagnosed with leukemia at age 6 and died at age 9. Jeff Byron, a former Marine air traffic controller, moved with his family into base housing in 1982, three months after his first daughter Andrea was born and two years before his daughter Rachel was born. Rachel is developmentally disabled, has spina bifida and was born with a cleft palate, he said. Andrea has a rare bone marrow syndrome known as aplastic anemia, according to Byron's testimony. Dr. Michael Gros, a Navy obstetrician at Camp Lejeune in the early 1980s, was diagnosed with lymphoma after living in Camp Lejeune housing, he said. Gros said he has had to give up his medical practice and his treatment has cost more than $4.5 million. Thomas Sinks, deputy director of the National Center for Environmental Health at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, . . .

POPSSafe,Affordable Water You've heard me say, "I'll have my bottled water, thank you very much!" But, that's because our tap water isn't safe. I want to make it clear that bottled water isn't a solution. It is only a safer choice at the moment. The solution is safe, clean, free water for everyone! We must invest in public water resources and stop polluting our lakes and rivers. Water isn't a commodity. It's the birthright of every living thing on the planet!

POPSCould we create quantum creatures in the lab? By impinging on the virus, it forces it into a superposition of both its ground state and next vibrational energy state. Now the virus should be doing two different things at once " the equivalent of you simultaneously mowing the lawn and doing the shopping. "They have come up with a really neat experiment " inventive and I think feasible," says Peter Knight of Imperial College London. You can read the full article for more details on the process. It's worth reading if you care enough or are just curious. :)

POPSCould we Create Quantum Creatures in the Lab? Water bears, similar to the one pictured here, can survive in a vacuum and might be made to behave like quantum objects Roger Penrose of the University of Oxford believes instead that there is a critical size, or mass, at which bodies cease to become quantum. According to Knight, experiments of the kind proposed by Romero-Isart's team could finally offer a way to distinguish between the mainstream view and Penrose's.

POPSAn Update on Barry's Hut Brother RUSH: I'm still pondering here, ladies and gentlemen, because it is a big mystery. Why it is that Obama refuses to help his brother in Kenya living in the hut and why the family has been waiting with their hands out for four five years, since 2004, since he was first elected to the US Senate. Not a penny, nothing. And we're sitting here trying to think, "Why?" And one thing is obviously there's no magic in helping family members overseas. Maybe it's racism. No, no, no. I'm serious. Obama is half white. Maybe his half-white side is to blame here. The family's... Well, look, I'm at the bottom of the barrel here trying to come up with logical explanations here. I'm just going on Newsweek, that we're all born racists -- and Obama had "a typical white grandmother." Those are his own words. Maybe the half-white side's winning out here. There's a dual battle going on inside the cranium there.

POPSClean Water Laws Are Neglected, at the Cost in Suffering
“How can we get digital cable and Internet in our homes, but not clean water?” asked one resident. When the source of the pollutants were found, state regulators never fined or punished the offending companies. The Clean Water Act was passed nearly four decades ago to force polluters to disclose what they dump and to give regulators the power to fine or jail offenders. So why haven’t these offenders been fined or jailed? And more importantly, why is this allowed to continue? The federal govt is big on writing legislation that ‘proves to its citizens’ that they are ‘concerned for our safety’ but are sorely lacking on follow-through. The new EPA administrator says that she intends to strengthen water protections, but, given their track record what good is strengthening a regulation that does not get enforced? This is just more BS to keep her job. Meanwhile residents who have the misfortune of living downstream from well-known, blatant polluters know they will not be protected

POPSSeas 'threaten 20m in Bangladesh' Four months after the cyclone, the sea defences are still breached and the island floods with every high tide. Map and satelite view of Gabura Island The chairman of the Gabura Island "union" or council, Shofiul Ajam Lenin, is calling for the embankments to be far higher. "If the current design is not changed then not only my union, but the other unions as well will not exist." The flooding has ruined the island's freshwater supplies and hygiene in the camp is poor. Among those living in tents on a narrow strip of high ground is Asma Khatun, a 25-year-old widow, who is now eager to leave. "I think it is not possible to live in this country any longer. We have to move to other countries. "We can't live here just by drinking this water. It is not possible to live here."
