POPSThe last days of health freedom Now we are at the point that food and healthcare systems simply cannot exist anymore in the same manner as before. Prevailing majority of modern diseases in one way or another linked to these two spheres; instead of to be healing factors they are threatening and damaging. We have no choice but changing it. Can we do it? Yes we can!:)

POPSNixon's Enemies List The official purpose, as described by the White House Counsel’s Office, was to “screw” Nixon’s political enemies, by means of tax audits from the IRS, and by manipulating “grant availability, federal contracts, litigation, prosecution, etc.” Is this practice still exist in our society in one way or another? Somebody has a doubt?

POPSCarradine’s ex says he had a dark side So it was not unpredictable. The guy got what he pursued. Rather banal story; it would be good if no sex crimes will float. How many old fat cats already got in the same trouble, especially in Thailand. Dark side... It's look like he was evil monster in a hell, created by him and his surrounding. Hollywood... Movies, revelations. For us, consumers...:(

POPSIn fact, we don't need gasoline at all... Can we see here the failure of anti-monopolistic legislature with suppression of effective and simple fuel? Although I don't think vapors of alcohol, especially methyl, are less toxic than gasoline's.

POPSHow to fix the health care system Health care system based on greed, negligence and bureaucracy of medical-industrial complex and food industry is essential part of that complex. Manipulations with health in order to sustain money-making business leading us to the dead end only, where we sailing under full steam if not there already - position of that point I cannot determine for sure now. It is clear only that that vector has to be turned completely in opposite direction. There is no other choice.

POPSWorld's Most Extreme Bodybuilders With optimal training weight-lifting can be rather beneficial for body and mind. But extreme, with steroids... What's the point? To stuck in a door frame?;)

POPSFreedom of choice... to die There are huge money swirling around wars. Who cares about your family, kids, their health, education, their feelings? Mill of war swallowing everything.

POPSScaremongers are still alive and kicking Lets make it clear. Any virus flu will gone in one week when treated; when untreated - in seven days. People dying from complications, not from virus infection itself. As higher temperature - as shorter disease and stronger immunity. Only sensible action is more strict following off hygienic rules.

POPSBeer Belly That is exactly what beer doing to the body and the author knows it, but unable to overcome his addiction. Publishing this photostream and joking about this he is subconsciously trying to find the light in the end of a tunnel. It's never late...

POPSThe Unkindest Cut: A Czech Solution for Sex Offenders I didn't expect to realize Czechs as barbaric nation.:( Didn't they guess to remove a brain completely, or at least replace it, to cure that kind of "disease". And how would we call the "disease" of intentionally mutilating the body of other human being?

POPSFrom GM to Chevron to oblivion Can we perceive the ugly face of monopoly in this small example? Do we have the power to defend small business from influence of corporations? Can it be the main cause of today's crisis? Unlimited greed is simply cannot result in any other outcome.

POPSAnother reason we don't have electric cars Catalytic converter in slightly aged passenger cars is real killer of the engine and therefore car itself. I'm not saying already about gradually reducing MPG and therefore the size of wallet of gaunted owner.;) Another example are the brakes. Truck drivers don't even know about regular changing brake pads, although intensity of brakes exploit in truck industry cannot be compared to that in small vehicles. Is all of these just accidental coincidence?

POPSWho killed the electric car in US? It was turning point which eventually led to today crisis. The culture of exponential growth in whole society is reflected in this example like in a drop of water. It cannot last forever and as soon we find right road to common sense as less painful will be healing.

POPSBring the Guard home National Guard are for domestic protection, not for imperial wars. Use of National Guard in the occupation of foreign country is one more point of charge. And change.

POPSExperts: Plane that crashed had prior engine problem Why we haven't heard much about bird strikes with such disastrous effect before? It looks like birds sucking into the engines regularly, nobody raised any concern. I think, jet engine can burn freely tons of them. Without big problems. I mean, good engines. But this time engines of this particular aircraft were not able to withstand additional burden of incoming poultry. So here we have two rather discouraging conclusions: 1) Nobody care about birds and, mainly, 2) Apparently not much care was exercised about condition of aircrafts. Striking similarity with fallen bridge in Minnesota and "sound condition" of US economy on the whole. Visible sign of ongoing recession. Sporadic heroism could not be a solution for system crisis.:(

POPSTorture is selling soul to evil Few years ago by chance it happens to me read this book . (Why America Slept: The Failure to Prevent 9/11 Gerald L. Posner Random House). Clearly fulfilling political order from his masters the author in one instance describing torture of Al Qaeda captive in terrifying details, shamelessly brandishing by his intimate knowledge of what's being done. There was much more than waterboarding. The book is unequivocal, self-evident proof of what led us to today's outcome.

POPSNew York crashes, bird strikes in USAir history There is no universal defense against birds, flocks of geese first of all. Some pilots use landing lights, some - weather radars. Why they didn't install yet protective gates in the mouth of the engine? Like jail bars...:-? Geese feel themselves at home in New York. Drivers usually stopping when flock of them crossing the road. I heard in certain areas, around airports, predatory birds like trained eagles can keep away those clumsy fellows.

POPSIt tracks your child "But it's really just about letting you have freedom of mind." It is Bush era legacy. Grim history. When I hear the word "freedom", I recall freedom fries. And inspiring song "Let freedom reign". Sorry, can't help myself. They pulling us trough all this shit again? I bet this "watches" have British accent of sour school teacher in loong trench coat. Didn't they provide an option of loving electric jolt? Just in case. The only soothing thing that it require recharge every 3 days. So don't worry, kids, they have their own problems. With brains first of all.

POPSActor Patrick Swayze is being treated for pneumonia Patrick Swayze has smoker's chronic bronchitis and the line between bronchitis and pneumonia is usually blurred in the conditions like his. Herbal teas sometimes help better than antibiotics without risks of adverse effects. Famous people are always the role models for us and Patrick is our real hero, now in reality unfolding as new plot of the battle for his own life. When we fighting we have chance to win. Always.
