POPSThe Secret Shadow Government Just as with the official government, the secret government has functional branches. Just as with the official government, the Shadow Government has functional branches. However, unlike the official government, the purpose of the non-executive branches of the Shadow Government is simply to distribute various functions, but not to achieve a system of checks and balances, as was supposed to happen constitutionally between the executive, legislative and judicial branches of the U. S. Government. That is because the Shadow Government is a creature of a powerful elite, who need not fear being dominated by an instrument of their own creation.

POPSGoldman Can Spare You a Dime In particular, the tone-deaf Treasury secretary, Timothy Geithner, never ceases to amaze. His daily calendars reveal that most of his contacts with the financial sector in the first seven months of 2009 were limited to the trinity of Goldman Sachs, Citigroup and JPMorgan. And last week Bloomberg News reported that his inner circle of “counselors” " key advisers who, conveniently enough, do not require Senate confirmation " are largely drawn from the same club. It’s hard to see how any public official can challenge a culture that he is marinating in, night and day.

POPSOctopus will be demolished... 基隆外木山章魚游泳池，一個滿有創意的水上遊樂設施就要拆除了，趕快跑去拍了幾張作紀念。 其實這裡已經關閉很多年了，現在要拆除了。 在游泳池還沒關閉前我曾來這裡玩過幾次，也有幾次在後面這棟紅色建築物和朋友聚餐， 這個大章魚沒什麼複雜的構造，就只是個溜滑梯而已， 章魚所在的位置有引進海水，也就是說這隻章魚是蹲在淺淺的水中， 所以大家都是要先換上泳裝才能玩溜滑梯， 旁邊有個約50公尺長的游泳池，由淺到深，裡面的水也是從旁邊大海引進的， 所以這個游泳池是個天然海水游泳池喔。

POPSOctopus and propaganda and octopus and... there are strange and beautiful sites out there, and some of them are interesting and very specific. The representation of the Octopus in propaganda and political cartoons, and influence on, or co-option of, popular culture. The intent behind Vulgar Army is to identify and criticise themes in the use of the octopus as a polemic metaphor, for example, its use as signifying 'action at a distance' or in dehumanising a group.
