POPSService and Homecoming With PTSD: A Vet's Story This article is worth reading in its entirety. The honesty and vulnerability of the author is most unusual and insightful. More from the article below: " I want everyone to know that I appreciate all the support our country has given the troops. I received packages in Iraq from schools, Boy and Girl Scout troops, Rotary Clubs and other volunteer groups. I really appreciated all the effort and time that went into trying to make our lives there a little bit better. So for all the problems I have, feeling supported is not one of them and I want to thank you all for your support. Just understand that none of us came back the same as when we left."

POPSBombshell: Crist 43, Rubio 43 Oh my. That caused me to have an intake of breath! Great news. I had noticed a couple (& I do mean a couple) of Rubio signs around our liberal dominated city but now I'm excited. I read recently that Rubio admitted that if he were Governor he, too, would have accepted *some* of the Stimulus money for Fla. but the rest of him seems like a true conservative. You never know what or who they *really* are until it comes time to vote and/or govern but there is no doubt that I support Rubio over Crist.

POPSExecutioned Police Officers Re-Opens Huckabee's Clemency Record Huckabee was expected to discuss the Clemmons case Monday night during an interview with Fox News Channel's Bill O'Reilly. Clemmons was among 1,033 people who were pardoned or had their sentences reduced during Huckabee's 10 1/2 years as governor, a number that far surpasses that of his three predecessors combined. Bill Clinton, Frank White and Jim Guy Tucker granted 507 clemencies in the 17 1/2 years they served. Beebe, Huckabee's Democratic successor, has issued 273 commutations and pardons since taking office in January 2007—all but one of them were pardons after the completion of the inmates' prison terms.

POPS7 Things That Could Leave You Extra Vulnerable to Colds and Flu 
1.) Eating too much sugar doesn't just pack on pounds … A study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that eating 100 g of sugar (think three cans of soda) significantly hampered the ability of white blood cells to kill bacteria for up to 5 hours afterward. 2.) There's a reason moms and doctors always push fluids on you when you're sick. Your body needs plenty of water to flush out toxins"and yes, coffee and tea are acceptable sources. How much fluid you should drink daily varies from person to person. You're drinking the right amount if your urine is pale yellow. Drink this immune-boosting beverage instead 3.) You know excess weight is unhealthy for your heart, brain and other organs. But it's also bad for your immune system. In fact, those who become most seriously ill with swine flu tend to share the same characteristic: a body mass index over 40, meaning they are morbidly obese. Excess weight can cause hormonal imbalances and inflammation ...

POPSAn Egregious Tragedy Has Taken Place ... into its clutches. It didn't happen to my child but it did, to someone who lived in my community. His name was Adam Walsh and he was a year younger than my own. The Walsh's horrible story, could have been mine. I, many times frequented the same place as Adam and his mom and I forever shuddered to think it my child who was cut from the herd and open to attack. We as a society should warn our children and ourselves that we are but one or two seconds from something so heinous that our lives would never recover. Whenever our children leave the safety of our sight, we should tell them, "Never allow a stranger to talk lies, in order to hurt you. Scream, cry, run and fight if need be, not to be taken by anyone.” Every child, every young person who falls victim to the savages amongst us, must be a reminder that we live in a jungle of predators but worse, these fiends look like us, so we have to be even more vigilant than jungle prey.

POPSMicrosoft Exposes Firefox Users to Drive-By Malware Downloads Here, the affected process is the Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) hosting process, PresentationHost.exe. While the vulnerability is in an IE component, there is an attack vector for Firefox users as well. The reason is that .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 installs a “Windows Presentation Foundation” plug-in in Firefox. Now, Microsoft’s security folks are actually recommending that Firefox users uninstall the buggy add-on: For Firefox users with .NET Framework 3.5 installed, you may use “Tools”-> “Add-ons” -> “Plugins”, select “Windows Presentation Foundation”, and click “Disable" This introduction of vulnerabilities in a competing browser is a colossal embarrassment for Microsoft. At the time of the surreptitious installs, there were prescient warnings from many in the community about the security implications of introducing new code into browsers without the knowledge " and consent " of end users. http://blogs.zdnet.com/security/?p=4614&tag=nl.e589

POPSUK has 1% of world's population but 20% of its CCTV cameras
An old article but still pretty accurate. you cannot move in London without being seen by at least 3 cameras at any one point. It is the definition of a police state, the police also have sub-machine guns, (H&K MP5k's for anyone interested) while you can be arrested for carrying a penknife if its blade is more than an inch long, because of the laws now concerning blades and knives. as well as the other tricks like LRADs (not new) which are now common place around the world. All backed by by ignorant and dangerous attitudes of the police. Again as always don't take my word for it look it up. The report says: "It is not entirely absurd to imagine that supermarkets' loyalty card data might one day be used by the Government to identify people who ignored advice to eat healthily or who drank too much, so that they could be given a lower priority for NHS treatment". "We have supermarkets collecting data on our shopping habits and also offering life insurance services"

POPSAre you happy with your IQ?
Prepare for the speculation, which is something that I sometimes do, sorry, you have the sources linked so you can draw your own conclusions. High levels of dopamine seem to be associated with contentment, so anxiety is probably related with low levels of dopamine, with is related with high IQ and memory. Once again intelligence and happiness seem to be contrary. The second part is more tricky. It is stated that self-confidence in intelligence may be unrelated with real IQ but is related with grades. What is the cause and the consequence between the high grades and self-confidence? May that mean that IQ tests are in fact not measuring intelligence? It is in fact tricky, but now take the first part again. Self-confidence seems related with high levels of dopamine, which is related with not-so-good IQ, but good grades. So if you are happy with your IQ chances are that it is not so high. Well, that made sense. However the brain is a complex system, a small change may have

POPSNew theory for why we cry This new concept from Hasson "offers the most plausible hypothesis about the evolved function of tears and crying," said evolutionary psychologist David Buss at the University of Texas at Austin."Others have speculated about possible function of tears, but the notion that they operate through handicapping is highly original."

POPSLancashire reporter upholds journalistic values It is the story stupid. Behind the headlines are always the victims. For Andy Miller and his immediate family it means that four teenagers will be growing up without their father. For Greg Pope, MP Accrigton Labour, a decent, honest man, the weight of working within such a corrupt regime seems too much and he is sadly leaving Parliament. The one shining light is the emergence of a good, clear reporter in a paper that still hold values of decency and accuracy.

POPSiPhone hackery with SMS!! This is a pretty serious security hole in the iPhone OS. The article also describes similar security flaws in the Google Android and Windows ME phones, so it's not exclusively an Apple oversight. At the time of the writing, Apple had not responded yet -- but with increased exposure, I'll bet an OS updated is forthcoming.
