POPSAmerica recruits Immigrants
plowed and planted for the first time, yielded bumper crops. Promoters made the most of it ... most of these efforts came to nothing. Factory workers weren't farmers, and even those who might try it could rarely afford it. Land itself was cheap, but getting to it, getting started, and surviving for the five years required to get title to a homestead cost money that most of them didn't have. "Prospects seemed better overseas. The Hebrew Emigrant Aid Society recruited Jewish immigrants from eastern Europe to establish farming communes in Oregon, Colorado, Kansas, and the Dakotas. The First Swedish Agricultural and Galesburg Colonization Companies started the towns of Salemsborg and Lindsborg in Kansas. Small groups of Dutch, French, Bohemian, English, and Irish families scattered across the Plains. Two hundred Scottish families settled together on the Kansas-Nebraska border. By 1875, more than half of Nebraska's 123,000 settlers were members of families headed by

POPSDog Food? Or "like" dog food It's funny how the media picks up on things... but I would have to agree that Dog Food is more sensational that "like" dog food. And "sensational" sells better than hard facts any 'ol time...

POPSHot New Steampunk Couture! Steampunk Couture is the result of a beautiful marriage of Neo-Victorian wear and our post-apocalyptic future. "Born wet and wide-eyed as a literary genre near the end of the last century, "steampunk" is just a word encompassing a litany of sins. The flagrant coupling of Victorian aesthetic, and phantastic technology. A dash of swashbuckle, a pinch of pathos, simmer until stirred or disturbed. Haberdashery sprung fully-formed from brandishing bustles, boots, and bodices (or monocles, spats, moustaches,) in shades of sepia, dashes of dun, blinks of black, coils of copper, illums of ivory, and jots of jewel-tone. Motifs meander from gearwheels to jacquard, stopping off at morbid, metallic, or romantic along the way. Accessorize with your favorite protective headwear. Let Kato, artist and craftist, escort you through her vogue's gallery of gamine garb. Tops, bottoms, and side-to-sides fit for adventure aloft

POPSThe mystery of moving rocks is yet to be revealed... "Over the years there were many speculations and possible explanations made on how the stones move, ranging from supernatural to very complex. Most hypotheses favored by interested geologists posit that strong winds when the mud is wet are at least in part responsible. But some stones weigh as much as a human, which some researchers feel is too heavy for the area's wind to move. They maintain that ice sheets around the stones either help to catch the wind or move in ice flows. But both theories don't explain how two rocks right next to each other could go in two opposite directions or one could stay put while the one three times the size, doesn't. So far every attempt of explanation has been insufficient and purely assumptive. The mystery of moving rocks is yet to be revealed".
