POPSAnother Supreme Court's Embarrassing Mistakes There assuredly will be a motion for rehearing filed, and even if there's not, the Court could consider reconsidering the case on its own, sua sponte. But only a naive wanker would expect the Emperor of America, Mr. Justice Anthony Kennedy, or any of the other four Justices who joined his opinion for the majority, to actually change their votes. At most, those five will permit limited supplemental briefing by both sides. There won't be additional oral argument. And in short order, Justice Kennedy will write a short supplemental opinion. It will announce the denial of rehearing. It will try to explain why the laws that America, through its Congress and president, has chosen to apply to its own uniformed sons and daughters are nevertheless absolutely meaningless data points in the SCOTUS' determination of America's "evolving standards of decency."

POPSBailout bill fails; Dow plunges
Here's the thing that really pisses me off... This bill was all set to still let these criminals get away with what they've done...With the Manning Memo and the Downing Memos out there this creep still escapes punishment, and war crimes.. Now the funny part is this this bailout fail or not -- these multi-millionaires get to take their - (no doubt) - overseas stash and live anywhere they want in the lap of luxury!!! bush and his family just bought around 100,000 ares in Paraguay (a non extradition country) is that a coincidence?? Hell no! He knows his admin started this war on false pretenses (false flag) and that they somehow blew up the world trade centers to get us into Iraq << yes Iraq not Afghanistan.. Why control, power and money! This is really why they hate the leaders of these countries including Cuba -- they can't get control! They are self sustaining with their oil reserves and they want to take that from them PERIOD! Bin Laden ha ha ha had us fooled that man had nothing t

POPSAnother Taser Death Pain compliance, better known as torture, is a short cut tool to obtain obedience, if applied to any other creature Taser use would be considered inhumane by most folks. Tasers would be best used if reserved as a punishment for the found guilty; this shocking assessment reveals a great crime deterrent.

POPSWhere is the Hope? Comment on this... Not a particularly palatable topic, but well written, and a sad indictment upon the good people that may still be living in the US for delusional hope, that all can be justified. The whole darn business seems to be one friggin' mess and pack of contradictions from topic to topic, scenario to scenario ... what kind of nightmarish society is being created in the name of freedom and so-called democracy? More like "demonocracy" ... it would seem!

POPSThe Politics of Fear From the source: First, they were attached to equipment to measure skin conductivity, which rises with emotional stress as the moisture level in skin goes up. Each participant was shown threatening images, such as a bloody face interspersed with innocuous pictures of things such as bunnies, and rise in skin conductance in response to the shocking image was measured. The other measure was the involuntary eye blink that people have in response to something startling, such as a sudden loud noise. The scientists measured the amplitude of blinks via electrodes that detected muscle contractions under people's eyes. Subjects who had expressed a high level of support for policies "protecting the social unit" showed a much larger change in skin conductance in response to alarming photos than those who didn't support such policies. Personal addendum: I disagree with the use of the word "dictate"; it should have been "indicate"

POPSThe Lunatic Fringe's Political Twilight Zone (revisited) After 8 long years of the Bush Twilight Zone. Here we are again being sucked into the McCain's version of this same Zone. Where the HELL is reality? McCain's pick of Sarah Palin is almost as troubling as a W. Bush second win. After proving himself totally incompetent with his first 4 years, the US people gave him the majority vote to rule for another 4 years. I know the rest of the world must think of us as Nut Cases. And we deserved the title! Sarah Palin is as nutty as a Jerry Falwell, the "man" who had babbled "AIDS is not just God's punishment for homosexuals; it's God's punishment for the society that tolerates homosexuals." AND, "The idea that religion and politics don't mix was invented by the Devil to keep Christians from running their own country." ALSO, "Good Christians, like slaves and soldiers, ask no questions."

POPSNonviolent Communication (NVC) The goal of NVC is to get one's own needs met while also meeting others' needs. A key principle of nonviolent communication that supports this is the capacity to express oneself without use of good/bad, right/wrong judgment, hence the emphasis on expressing feelings and needs, instead of criticisms or judgments.
