POPSCashier Attacks Deaf Man for Not Talking "Upon further investigation, it appeared the suspect became frustrated when the victim wouldn't respond or acknowledge his attempts to converse," Sullivan said. "He became outraged and struck the victim in an unwarranted attack." The store's surveillance tape was erased or taped over before the officers got there.

POPSUncle Sam, Your BANKER Will See You NOW!!!
No country on earth, except for Israel, supports the Bush regimes’ desire to attack Iran. It is China’s decision whether it calls in the US ambassador, and delivers the message that there will be no attack on Iran or further war unless the US is prepared to buy back $900 billion in US Treasury bonds and other dollar assets. The US, of course, has no foreign reserves with which to make the purchase. The impact of such a large sale on US interest rates would wreck the US economy and effectively end Bush’s war-making capability. Moreover, other governments would likely follow the Chinese lead, as the main support for the US dollar has been China’s willingness to accumulate them. If the largest holder dumped the dollar, other countries would dump dollars, too. The value and purchasing power of the US dollar would fall. When hard-pressed Americans went to Wal-Mart to make their purchases, the new prices would make them think they had wandered into Marcus. Americans would not be able t

POPSU.S. Government = idiots In my opinion, the most effective strategy for getting the U.S. economy going would be to devote enormous resources to the adoption of renewable sources of energy (not to mention the political and environmental benefits). It should be the Energy Revolution and it should be as epic as the Industrial Revolution. The country should be more committed to it than we were to putting a man on the moon. We need to innovate our way to the future. If we don't do it soon, we will just be playing catch because Europe and Asia will do it. That said, our government seems to be totally indifferent to this. Or, perhaps they are bought by Big Oil. Whatever it is, we need leadership from business and government that recognizes this incredible opportunity. Why Obama and Hillary aren't talking about this more is beyond me.

POPSWant coal? Blow up a mountain! A spokesman for the National Mining Association, Luke Popovich, said that unless mine owners were allowed to dump mine waste in streams and valleys it would be impossible to operate in mountainous regions like West Virginia that hold some of the richest low-sulfur coal seams. All mining generates huge volumes of waste, known as excess spoil or overburden, and it has to go somewhere. For years, it has been trucked away and dumped in remote hollows of Appalachia. Environmental activists say the rule change will lead to accelerated pillage of vast tracts and the obliteration of hundreds of miles of streams in central Appalachia.

POPS20 Great Mark Twain Quotes Pt 3 (15-20) Twain was once voted the Quintessential American Author. Others who have been listed at his level during our 19th century were: Nathaniel Hawthorne Edgar Allan Poe Stephen Crane Bret Harte Washington Irving and a young man who was inspired totally by him: Jack London. I would be remiss if I did not point out that one of his contemporaries (and just as much a curmudgeon) and he had an ongoing battle of words in their respective newspapers, Ambrose Bierce...
