POPSChanges Approved Allowing Hundreds of New Domain Names It's about time! They are also looking to clamp down on the "domain tasters" who tie up domain names seeing what the traffic is for certain names, and then they buy the domain and hold out for the highest bidders. This is why a lot of brand names are at strange named domains ... their domain name was already bought by an investor, and they would not pay the price to buy the domain name.

POPSThe Online Books Page Just in case some of you just might be suffering from the delusion that someday you might be able to shut down your computers and go and breath the fresh air that someone once told me is actually to be found outside.

POPS"Kristen's" MySpace Images In News Stories Copyright Infringement? MySpace’s Terms & Conditions page states that “MySpace does not claim any ownership rights” over the photos users post on the site. It says MySpace has the right to display user content within MySpace, but “This limited license does not grant MySpace the right to sell or otherwise distribute your Content outside of the MySpace Services.” The photos remained on Youmans’s MySpace profile Thursday morning, but had been taken down by Thursday afternoon. That strikes me as incredibly silly, though, and as a relic of the pre-Internet world. Like it or not, Dupree is a public figure now and the images are indeed newsworthy. It seems to me that when a copyright holder puts images in a public forum, that should render them public domain for the purposes of news reporting and commentary. It shouldn’t confer the right to sell said images directly but their use to illustrate a story should be “fair use” under the law.

POPSJapan is a callous vandal - watch folks! There is no question that Japan has been "caught out" in its acts of barbaric and unenlightened whaling practices. Hence their reaction to the release of the graphic images. Japan prefers to drop a cloak over its operations and simply with uniform or misinform the public. It tries to lie its way using the guise of "research". Japanese trade needs to be targeted by World consumers. It starts with us all!

POPSGene Combo May Hike Prostate cancer risk The research may lead to a blood test that can identify high risk individuals A statement struck me as bizarre - Looking at gene combos being a relatively new approach. They are about to release products of many strands of genetic research to the general public, and it has only just occurred to them that many diseases and conditions are a result of a gene 'combo'? I would have thought that had already been established. But the truth seems to be that while we can fathom some of the actions of single genes, the way they act in combination is a complete mystery. Evidence they Do Not Have Enough Information or understanding, to allow products of genetic research to enter the public domain. But that won't stop them.
