POPSKaradzic brings Humor in The Court Twelve and a half years ago, when the corpses in these mass graves were still fresh, the arrest of Radovan Karadzic might have made a difference. True, the world knew even then that the so-called president of the breakaway Serb region of Bosnia and Herzegovina was more the foreman than the architect of the worst massacres in Europe since World War II: the siege of Sarajevo, which killed at least 10,000 people, and the slaughter at Srebrenica, which killed more than 7,000 men, some of whose bodies had filled the site at Glogova. It was former Yugoslavian President Slobodan Milosevic, who died in jail in 2006, who had hatched and orchestrated the overall plan for the ethnic cleansing and violent division of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

POPSBush seeks to make "war powers" permanent "Tucked deep into a recent proposal from the Bush administration is a provision that has received almost no public attention, yet in many ways captures one of President Bush’s defining legacies: an affirmation that the United States is still at war with Al Qaeda.

Thousands of poor, trembling cows are standing in a mix of dirt and manure, knowing for sure their fate already. That's how the meat becoming a poison. Cruel and unusual treatment of anybody, even animals before their slaughter, cannot go unpunished. This is the rule of life and we would never escape it, regardless if it from God or the Nature.

POPSJapan's Taiiji Dolphin Hunt Protest
This despicable hunt must be stopped, somehow. The Taiji dolphin hunts continue to prosper because the fishermen receive immense profits from selling some of their victims to the captive dolphin industry. The government also gives the fishermen permission to continue the hunt because they consider the dolphins pests who eat too much of the fish stocks around Taiji. Take Action for Dolphins Ask the World Association of Zoos and Aquariums to expel members who accept dolphins from drive fisheries.

POPSCollateral damage of milk consumption Terminate Your Milk Habit Doctors and nutritionists now recommend that we all stop drinking milk because it’s been linked to heart disease, allergies, some cancers, and even osteoporosis, the bone-weakening disease that we used to think it would prevent. Dairy products contain no fiber or complex carbohydrates and are laden with saturated fat and cholesterol. They are often contaminated with cows’ blood, pus, pesticides, hormones, and antibiotics.

POPSInt'l Whaling Comm. Fails, Threats to Whales Mount, Whaling Nations Dig In A new report on climate change suggested dire consequences for the world’s whales if immediate steps aren’t taken to mitigate the effects of changes in sea temperature, freshening of seawater from melting ice and increased rainfall, sea level rise, loss of polar habitats, and the decline of krill populations. Meanwhile, the IWC’s Scientific Committee continued its important work on assessments of threats to whales from ship strikes, fisheries entanglements, and underwater noise generated by human technology, including energy company exploration, as well as from emerging and recurring diseases.

POPSBrucellosis Found in Wyoming Cattle Was researching 'brucellosis' and ironically this article showed up as a recent update in my Google search. What I have read up to the point of noticing this article is that brucellosis is rare in humans in the U.S. primarily because there are vaccines that are administered to the animals. The most likely human candidates to acquire this bacterial infection aside from animals are lab workers, veterinarians and ranchers; and THEN the people they have come into 'personal' contact with via fluid transmissions. Furthermore, brucellosis can be acquired via inhalation which is why it is considered a bio-terrorism agent.
