POPSOn becoming invisible More: I abandoned my cart, walked over to Customer Service, and asked if I could have a comment form to fill out. The Customer Service employee—who, bless his heart, could see me—said they didn’t have a comment form, but he listened to my complaint… He told me that if I wanted to talk to the Assistant Manager…I could deliver my complaint in person. I didn’t have the heart to tell him that the Assistant Manager had been one of the guys who couldn’t see me. What the hell. It was worth a try. I walked over to the Assistant Manager. When I was just a few feet away from him, I stopped, planted my cane, and looked directly at him. Damned if I wasn’t still invisible. It was weird—he was a tall man, but when his eyes moved from one side to the other I could see them making an upward bump in their travel path when they were passing over me. He refused to look directly at me for even a second. I kept looking straight at him. There was no way he could have missed me.

POPSBBC: "Pedigree Dogs Exposed"
"Purebred" dogs are victims of over a century of inbreeding for looks. They are essentially mutant dwarfs that are plagued with all manner of sickness and genetic infirmities, who look almost nothing like their healthy ancestors of 100+ years ago. The most distressing part is to listen to the breeders who, because they want a dog to look a certain way, breed siblings to siblings, parents to children... And the results is King Charles Spaniels existing in constant agony because they've been bred so small their brain does not fit in their skull. That ridge on a Rhodesian Ridgeback, that's mild spina bifida, leaving the dog prone to spinal infections. But breeders kill healthy puppies born without it, lest they ruin the (mutant) breed. All so the mutants can be shown in the ring. The analysis of how British attitudes towards purebred dogs relates to the idea of eugenics, and breeding for so-called "pure" traits. It frames what dog breeders attitudes most disturbi

POPSMutating vaccine causes polio outbreak in Nigeria The agency discussed the first 16 cases it knew of at meetings early this year and posted information on its Web site in April, "but only in places where lab people would look," he said. Outbreaks of vaccine-derived polio are unusual but not unheard of. Individual cases have been known for years. For example, a former lieutenant governor of Virginia was partly paralyzed in 1973, apparently after changing the diapers of his son, who had received an oral vaccine. The first spreading outbreak of a vaccine-derived strain, in which 22 children were paralyzed, was detected in 2001 in the Dominican Republic and Haiti. Experts now believe that another took place in Egypt in the late 1980s but went unnoticed amid the much larger numbers of wild-type infections. There have been others in the Philippines, Madagascar, China and Indonesia.

POPSAlien Creature Calls Ann Coulter Mama
According to American UFO expert Joshua P. Warren (32), the farmer burned to death in a parked car at the side of a road. The flames apparently had a far higher temperature than in a normal fire! Now there are rumours that the parents of the creature Lopez drowned were the ones who in turn killed him out of revenge. There are frequent UFO sightings and reports of crop circles in the area where the creature was found. Perhaps it was left behind deliberately by aliens. Mexican UFO expert Jaime Maussan (56) was the first to break the story. He claimed it was not a hoax. Farmers also told him that there was a second creature but it ran away when they approached. The puzzle has caused intrigue amongst BILD’s readers. Some say it is a mutant, others wonder why aliens would leave a baby behind - and one reader asked why aliens don’t wear clothes. And the bizarre story has reached as far as South Korea and China! Mexico isn't the only hotspot of apparent extra-terrestrial

POPSmichael jackson he will be missed. i hope the world will be kind to his memory, and choose to remember the good, not the accusations that were never proved, and the weirdness of his last years. i never once believed that it was in him to harm children, for he was a child himself inside.
