POPSHappy? "Economic gains that bring more food, clothing, shelter, medical care and longer life can result in a substantial increase in subjective well-being for poor societies, he says. But once a society reaches a certain threshold, further economic growth brings only minimal gains. Among the richest societies, increases in income are only weakly linked with higher levels of subjective well-being. While economic growth helps promote happiness for some, democratization and rising social tolerance contribute even more. Democracy provides more choice, which promotes happiness. Support for gender equality and tolerance of people who are different from oneself are also strongly linked, not just because tolerant people are happier, but because living in a tolerant society enhances everyone's freedom, Inglehart says."

POPSI’ve Been Overly Flirtatious… It is possible to be overly flirtatious with food? Well, my “skinny jeans” seem to think so. I’m afraid I’ve been flirting with a few too many foods, too many times a day. Oops! Oh well, it was bound to happen sooner or later. Enter “French Women Don’t Get Fat,” by Mireille Guiliano.

POPSGuinness and Onion Soup with Irish Cheddar Crouton It’s high summer here in Tiburon and certainly not the time of year to think about hot soup but Michael Chiarello’s Guinness and Irish cheddar cheese onion soup sounds delicious. Having just returned from Ireland I’m still in my Irish mode.

POPS"A dishonorable lust for office" The choice of Palin reveals a dishonourable lust for office, a disrespect for women generally and a dishonourable indifference to the future of his country.

POPSHussein O Bama's Freudian Slip I don't care whare anybody says about this. I am convinced this empty suit is a muslim, and is in all likelihood an al Qaeda sleeper cell. This is most certainly a Freudian slip. It slipped out subconsciously, "My Muslim Faith", which he then corrected. Has anybody seen an aerial view of his home in New Hyde Park, Chicago? Directly right across the street from a huge mosqe.

POPSPalin Won't Give Interviews Until Campaign Is Ready Oh, the ARROGANCE! We've had eight years of arrogance from BushCo, which was quite enough. The only reason the media "focused" on Bristol Palin's pregnancy is because Sarah Palin is a staunch advocate of "abstinence only" education - and her daughter is a perfect example of why that type of "education" does NOT work. And if Davis wants to whine about objective journalism, what about the media frenzy over Obama's pastor, the flag pin non-issue, etc etc etc. If she wants to be a heartbeat away from the Presidency, she had better start answering to the people of the United States. And if she's being so secretive and arrogant now, while just a barely-known candidate, imagine what she would be like if (God forbid) she were to become POTUS? Hell YEAH she's scared to answer to the people! Prove us wrong, beauty queen.

We can see this leap in my three favorite features unique to Chrome...

POPSWhy Is Billionaire Fueling His 747 With Coconut Oil? Environmentally speaking, wouldn’t we be better off just continuing to use petroleum-based aviation fuel instead of claiming vast swaths of land to grow coconuts to use in Mr. Branson’s new toy? The absolute lack of common sense from the left at times leaves me speechless.

POPS“So Sambo beat the bitch!” How many Republicans think it is OK for Sarah Palin to use racist language? Please raise your hands! Did they all put their hands up?

POPSTo Follow God's Will? I think all this nonsense really hurts the message of a religious revolutionary who brought transformation and wisdom, not doctrine. There is a wise way and a foolish way; a broad way and a narrow one. Do people really think that one can "pray away gay?" It's so convenient to believe if one's orientation is heterosexual I suppose. Oh well, back to the every day business of the dead burying their own dead.

POPS Sally Quinn Does Complete U-turn on Sarah Palin Kudos to Sally Quinn for recognizing that she was wrong about Sarah Palin. So will other media types currently sneering at Palin, such as Campbell Brown, also experience a similar revelation? I'm not holding my breath but after Sally Quinn's dramatic turnaround I guess anything is possible. —P.J. Gladnick is a freelance writer and creator of the DUmmie FUnnies blog.

POPScocaine crime These numbers have made me think about the prohibition times; I know it will be almost impossible to go back to those “happy days” but I think it will be possible to decrease the consume by raising the alcohol taxes.

POPSPalin Invokes God to Justify Iraq, Pipelines. What a....Repukelican. ..no I won't say what I really think. There are women here I respect too much...But not Sarah, or Cindy McCain or Laura Bush--any woman who can cleave to men like that doesn't deserve MY respect.

POPSUS Military Deaths, Just a Number Only, declined, the casualties first suffered, since, the latest, at least 4,153, since....2003 These words used in the article seem to detach themselves from the fact that "our " brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers, husbands, and friends are being killed in a war with Iraq. It makes me think that people may be viewing this as just " war " and maybe compared to " the Vietnam War " and not as " the war on terrorism " or " the fight for freedom." Maybe " that " is why people protest this war, not against the soldiers that are led there, but " the Politics behind it ". I may be wrong and you may not care what I think, but I hope " I still have the freedom ", to say it.
