POPSThrow out your New Year resolutions Chris has an interesting approach to planning for a new year. Rather than resolutions, which are often daunting and rarely kept, take aim at 3 guide words for the year and think through what you can do to hit them. Think as well about what may distract you so you are watching for the traps to achieving your goals.

POPSAbortion is "sacred work"............... "They also suggest writing a letter to "the spirit of the child." Many women find they are talking to the spirit of the child inside of them. It may be useful and helpful to write your thoughts on paper. Some women write how they came to their decision, some ask for forgiveness. Some thank the spirit for the wisdom or thoughts they have had about life. Some write about the love they feel. Sometimes, having a way to say goodbye is an important part of healing. But the clinic warns women about where to go to find answers. "Remember: Go to factual and supportive sites. Use our Resources, or Choice Link Up. Avoid the negative traps of anti-choice sites." I'm sure they wouldn't want their patients reading sites that don't think their clinic is quite so sacred. Abortion is the result of the absence of love - love which is good, holy, sacred. "

POPSTHE DEADLIEST CARD GAME IN TOWN
but they have joined the right’s sycophants and willingly do the bidding of the LOBBY FIRMS in order to receive the dirty money (more like blood money) these cut-throats will give them (to turn a blind eye) in the form of campaign contributions. A shell game of sorts, where the suckers, in many instances, have no idea of what is going on and how it negatively affects their well-being. It's a sad game that cannot be won by anyone who falls into a category called LOW-INCOME. The banks and credit card companies’ makeup all the rules and they are always in their favor. NO ONE, can get out of the traps they set, while they siphon off any earnings said suckers have given their blood, sweat and tears to acquire. It should be a crime because it is criminal but it is not. Watch, learn and weep for those who get snared in THE DEADLIEST CARD GAME IN TOWN, where there is no place to turn for help.

POPShowies apprentice Howies Apprentice - "The Biggest Marketing Lie..." The biggest lie that traps people from reaching their dreams is thinking you can do it all alone. Yes, some things you can do, and in the beginning we are sometimes forced to. But at some point you need partnerships and relationships. Every big time marketer out there has partners, and a team. Even if it's only one personal assistant. But the bottom line is there are no solo acts. It just doesn't work that way. Because we all have our strengths and weaknesses. The trick is to focus on what you're good at, and delegate the tasks you're not to people who are. But that's the hardest part for most people.

POPSNASAfinds significant water on moon
Although the goal of the $79 million mission was to determine whether there is water on the moon, discoveries in other areas are expected as studies progress, Colaprete and other scientists said at the briefing at NASA's Ames Research Center at Moffett Field near San Francisco, California. "The discovery opens a new chapter in our understanding of the moon," the space agency said in a written statement shortly after the briefing began. Michael Wargo, chief lunar scientist at NASA headquarters in Washington, said the latest discovery also could unlock the mysteries of the solar system. He listed several options as sources for the water, including solar winds, comets, giant molecular clouds or even the moon itself through some kind of internal activity. The Earth also may have a role, Wargo said. "If the water that was formed or deposited is billions of years old, these polar cold traps could hold a key to the history and evolution of the solar system, much as an ice core sa

POPSSperm Whale Classified Carbon Neutral Prior analysis of whale carbon dioxide emissions attributes 25 percent of carbon dioxide emissions total to the animals in the Southern Ocean region. Subsequent computation lowers the whales’ carbon dioxide emissions estimate to 0.3 percent, which is equivalent to 17 million tons of carbon a year. Lavery and team explain that there are low levels of iron in the Southern Ocean, and the sperm whales each contribute about 10 grams of iron to the surface. Since the iron comes from the whales’ waste material, it takes the form of liquid plumes, effectively acting as a fertilizer and encouraging growth of plankton. Depending on the exact values and environmental conditions, sperm whales can then be classified “either a net carbon sink or as carbon-neutral,” Discovery writes.

POPSShōichi Yokoi "It is with much embarassment that I have returned alive," he said upon his return to Japan. The remark would become a popular saying in Japanese. For twenty-eight years, he hid in an underground jungle cave, fearing to come out of hiding even after finding leaflets declaring that World War II had ended. Yokoi was the third-to-last Japanese soldier to surrender after the war.

POPSPlay controls impulsive behavior
"46 percent of kindergarten teachers said that at least half the kids in their classes had problems following directions. In another study, Head Start teachers reported that more than a quarter of their students exhibited serious self-control-related negative behaviors, like kicking or threatening other students, at least once a week. Walter Gilliam, a professor at Yale’s child-study center, estimates that each year, across the country, more than 5,000 children are expelled from pre-K programs because teachers feel unable to control them." Do these statistics sounds familiar? If you have a child in elementary school or preschool, you may have to deal with your child being criticized for their impulsive behavior. They might even be given a diagnosis or put in special "resource" education programs. I don't blame the educational programs or even political policy on education for the problems are children are experiencing in schools. I don't blame the mental health professionals f

POPSThe Afghansitan Ant Lion Ever seen how an ant lion traps his prey? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CWkfAyfBDHE Now, instead of sand, you get selected pieces of "soft " information and pass it around via leaks to reporters and op-ed types who will be glad to serve as trap assistants. The ant lion may be a someone working in the background who can always deny that he had anything to do with the trap. The problem is that now, there are hundreds of folks who can tell everyone about the trap and the set up. If we are really going to change how things have been done in the past to screw things up, I think that when a General has a report to send the President that he ought to deliver it in person and on camera and then they sit down and talk about it in public. If there are leaks about the report, then fire the General who can't do the job on his/her own. Lincoln has to fire a lot of folks until he got two winners, Obama should do the same.
