POPSTouch Screen Back in 1998/99, myself and a co-worker were brainstorming on computing ideas. We came up with an idea for a computer screen that would act like a kiosk of sorts, for the elderly. Realizing that there was a need to keep in touch and up to date with technology, it 'felt right' to bring something like touch screen for the elderly or those that could not type, into age (pun intended). Our idea was to set up these kiosk style monitors in senior assisted/non-assisted homes; on campus clubhouses, etc so anyone could send email and play a few games. Easy stuff that would not be intimidating or difficult to learn. Idea blown away when presented to our employer as not 'marketable enough.' About 3 weeks ago, I walked into Sam's Club; the computer section. A round table was set up with HP Touchscreen monitors. Curios, I walked over to inspect and could not get close enough except to watch. Persons much older than myself standing around the table, playing games by touching the scre

POPS"Fat Talk" Not Spoken Here Fat Talk Free Week encourages women to strive for a healthy ideal and take care of their bodies by focusing on health – not weight or size. The campaign encourages women to let go of the fat talk that plagues our every day conversations and promotes a celebration of things about ourselves that have nothing to do with the way we look. Breaking free from the unrealistic thin ideal of beauty has never been more urgent. Did you know that: * 1 out of 8 adolescent girls reported starving themselves to lose weight * 40% of moms tell their adolescent daughters to diet and 45% of these girls are of average weight * 81% of 10 year old girls are afraid of being fat * 51% of 9 and 10 year old girls feel better about themselves if they are on a diet * More than 2/3 of women ages 18-25 would rather be mean or stupid than be fat * Over 50% of women ages 18-25 would rather be hit by a truck than be fat * 70 million people worldwide struggle with eating disord

POPSvideo: Barenaked Ladies - "Be My Yoko Ono" Lyrics: If there's someone you can live without, then do so. And if there's someone you can just shove out, do so. Chorus You can be my Yoko Ono You can follow me wherever I go Be my, be my, be my Yoko Ono. Isn't it beautiful to see two people so much in love? Barenaked as two virgins hand in hand and hand and hand in glove. Now that I'm far away it doesn't seem to me to be such a pain. To have you hanging off my ankle like some kind of ball and chain. Chorus Oh no, here we go, our life is just one big pun. Oh no, here we go as Yoko sings Aieee! I know that when I say this I may be stepping on pins and needles. But I don't like all these people Slagging her for breaking up the Beatles. (don't blame it on Yoki!) If I was John and you were Yoko, I would gladly give up musical genius, Just to have you as my very own, personal Venus. (hit it!)

POPSGlobal Cooling Wrecking Tourism In NE
From an unfazed Associated Press The tourism season is young, so there are few statistics indicating how it’s going. In Maine, those that are available point to a rough start. In June, traffic was down 3 percent on the Maine Turnpike, and day use at state parks was down by nearly a third. There’s no sugarcoating the bitter pill in a state where "Vacationland" is on the license plates and tourism is the biggest industry, pumping $10 billion into the economy. Vaughn Stinson, chief executive officer of the Maine Tourism Association, put the damage at millions of dollars in Maine alone. "When you have just day after day after day of that, it just really dampens " no pun intended " everyone’s enthusiasm," Stinson said. It’s certainly bad for businesses that had to close. Story Land in Conway, N.H., and Funtown Splashtown USA in Saco are among those that closed briefly. Under sunny skies, Friday marked only the seventh day in two weeks that Aquabaggon news.yahoo.com

POPSIn The Messiah's Fantasy World Of Rainbows & Unicorns In the Messiah’s world I guess Germany would be a valid example of going green if it was sustainable and if they were not dismantling a great deal of it at this time. The currently generate 15% of their energy through renewable sources. As it turns out Germany has neither much sun nor much wind and renewable energy companies are mostly on the government dole at a huge expense to the country. Sounds Obama-like with some sort of thing they call a “feed-in-tariff” whereby the producers are guaranteed a price 7 times higher than the wholesale rate for the next 20 years. The German electricity bill went up 38% in one year in 2007. And the Germans have discovered that renewable energy is very inefficient in all respects thus it will always be tremendously costly compared to other forms of power. And what about the Obama fantasy called cap-and-trade which is also a disaster in Europe.

POPSDealing with the Christian Taliban Before all of you folks start writing angry emails directed my way, give some thought as to just what the Christian Taliban are doing in this country today. They have openly called for a “Fatwah” against so-called “activist judges” and they openly defend hatred directed toward gays, as well as single women with children. They censure, with excommunication as well as other sanctions, anyone who strays from their dogmatic and narrow viewpoint.

POPSCondi Rice - way outside of her comfort zone.
My version :-) Condi: "Please stop using the word 'torture'. How many times do I have to tell you - the Bush administration DID NOT sanction torture, no sirree. Even if we did (cough)..what's a little waterboarding - a small drowning - nothing too drastic. Oh the hooded-and-wired-prisoner-on-a-box incident? Well, as I said the Bush administration never used illegal means to get a prisoner to spill the beans. Anyways, you wouldn't be asking these silly questions if some idiot hadn't taken photos! Oh, the dog incident? Well that WAS unfortunate and probably not altogether necessary. We had a name for that one, but you're a bit young to know..(wags finger in face). Anyway, I was just following orders. It wasn't down to me..speak to my deposed leader. I know, I know, that defence wouldn't hold water in a court of law (sorry 'bout that..I couldn't resist the pun), but I did my job and I did it darned well. Just look at all the friends we've made globally, and the peaceful country we
