POPS"Proper Procedure" Matters More Than Justice
Rest of the article below: " " This Court has never held that the Constitution forbids the execution of a convicted defendant who has had a full and fair trial but is later able to convince a habeas court that he is “actually” innocent. Quite to the contrary, we have repeatedly left that question unresolved, while expressing considerable doubt that any claim based on alleged “actual innocence” is constitutionally cognizable." But, in this case, most of the key witnesses say that they gave false testimony. How fair is that? It may be true that the prosecutor didn't knowingly introduce false evidence and that the judge conducted the trial according to the law and that the jury followed their instructions to a tee. But the trial wasn't exactly fair when it was filled with perjurers, now was it? And even under this reading of the law, how could it be Constitutional to execute a man you believe to be innocent? Naturally, Clarence Thomas joined Scalia in this dissent."

POPSLower Child IQ Linked To Later Life Dementia Starr said the findings support the hypothesis that low childhood IQ acts as a risk factor for dementia through vascular risks rather than the “cognitive reserve” theory. This theory speculates that greater IQ and education create a buffer against the effects of dementia in the brain, allowing people with greater cognitive reserve to stay free of signs of dementia longer, even though the disease has started affecting their brains.

POPSCut Military Spending in Half By Benjamin H. Friedman, a research fellow in defense and homeland security studies at the Cato Institute and a PhD candidate in political science at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. From comment at the site: ... From 2000 to 2008, Texas defense contactors raked in $255 billion, according to federal data compiled by governmentcontractswon.com ... but 2008 yielded the highest profits of the decade. Halliburton, the Houston-based oil-field services company once headed by Dick Cheney, has been the state’s most notorious war profiteer. KBR, formerly a subsidiary of Halliburton and also headquartered in Houston, is the U.S. Army’s largest construction and contracting group in Iraq and Afghanistan. Aerospace giants clustered in the Dallas-Fort Worth area—Lockheed Martin Aeronautics, CSC Technologies and DynCorp, to name a few—have also swept in huge defense contracts to produce military aircraft, conventional missiles and military satellites.

POPSIllegal Israeli Settlers Terrorize Schoolkids
We all know "it ain't right", including those who commit these actions along with the ones who turn a blind eye to it. More from the article below: "The family was warned by two members of the CPT that a group of settlers had been spotted on the ridge above... would be safer for them to take the longest route home to avoid a confrontation. "We decided to accompany the family in case there was any trouble. Despite taking the longer route a group of five settler men rushed towards us from the valley above and attacked the father who had a toddler in his arms," American CPT member Sarah MacDonald told IPS. MacDonald and another CPT member were videotaping events in case they needed to go to the police. "I decided to try and engage the settlers to try and protect the family," Ciaghi told IPS. Ciaghi was thrown to the ground and repeatedly kicked in the ribs and back as the men stole both video cameras from the women. "Because the settlers focused their attention on us the Palestinia

POPSGlobal Warming Fraud and the Future of Science It is this, and no less, that scientific fraud threatens. This is no trivial matter; it involves one of the basic elements of modern Western life. When scientific figures lie, they lie to all of us. If they foment serious distrust of the scientific endeavor -- as they are doing -- they are creating a schism in the heart of our culture, a wound that in the long run could prove even more deadly than the jihadi terrorists. The apparent success of the climate hustlers has infected all areas of research. Over the past decade, stem-cell studies have proven a hotbed of fraud. Recall Dr. Hwang Woo Suk, the South Korean biologist who claimed to have cloned various higher animals and isolated new stem cell lines to worldwide applause. Suk was discovered to have faked all his research, prompting the South Korean government to ban him from taking part in any further work.
