That thing's operational! 18.Don't worry. Chewie and I have gotten into a lot of pants more heavily guarded than this. 19.Maybe you'd like it back in your pants, your highness. 20.Your pants betray you. Your feelings for them are strong.

POPSChina quake despair turns to anger I suppose the press was bound to find an area to "blame". It is a pity, but corruption rulz. Darwin, after the cyclone in !974, was full of shonky builders (many were not, I am quick to add) who offered bribes to the housing inspectors. Not all rebuilt houses were cyclone proof. It would be interesting to compare all countries. The experience we have had with toys made in China is proof enough that there is corruption there as well.

POPSKurt Marti: Wenn die Bücher aufgetan werden In this poem, God is believed as the friend of his, not as their intimidating warden. The confident faith expressed here is diametrically opposed to the fear-stricken belief expressed by the medieval Latin hymn Dies irae (Day of wrath): Quantus tremor est futurus, Quando iudex est venturus, Cuncta stricte discussurus! Liber scriptus proferetur, In quo totum continetur, Unde mundus iudicetur. Welch ein Graus wird sein und Zagen, Wenn der Richter kommt, mit Fragen Streng zu prüfen alle Klagen! Und ein Buch wird aufgeschlagen, Treu darin ist eingetragen Jede Schuld aus Erdentagen. Oh what fear man's bosom rendeth, when from heaven the Judge descendeth, on whose sentence all dependeth. Lo! the book, exactly worded, wherein all hath been recorded: thence shall judgment be awarded.

POPSNuclear Israel Likely to Attack Iran on False Claims
Israel possesses a nuclear arsenal supplied by the U.S.. Iran does not. Israel has attacked Lebanon and Syria. Iran has never attacked anyone. The U.S. has attacked two countries. Iran is developing nuclear power, not nuclear weapons. Iran has a right to self defense. Iran has never threatened to militarily attack Israel, only rejected the political legitimacy of the Zionist state arbitrarily carved out of Palestine by the UN under pressure of WWII. (Erased from a political map, not bombed into annihilation). Yet the corporate media does not want you to know these naked facts, but fully supports the Israeli, neoconservative, Bush-Cheney rhetoric of Iran starting a "nuclear holocaust"--a pack of blatant lies just like WMD in Iraq. Israel it appears will start this war, and the neocon Bush-Cheney administration wants them to before their term is up. War time always has improved political ratings also and could give the neo-republicans a boost over Ron Paul and the rest.

POPSEnergy Search Spooked townspeople more... "In Basel, the first shaft was bored last year by a 190-foot-tall drilling rig towering above nearby apartment buildings. Water was pumped down the injection well in the test phase in December, and as expected, it heated to above 390 F as it seeped through the layers of rock below. But that's where the water remains for the time being; it caused the rock layers to slip, causing the tremors and rumbles that spooked the townspeople. "
