POPSchildren lost the right to roam in 4 generations The article reflects our changing habits and our relationship with our environment. I agree completely about the necessity of outdoors, nature, plants, our good ol' earth. Ever been fishing? To a quiet golf course? A hike? How does it rejuvenate you? I am working on making my backyard a kind of restful, naturalist place for me to go and be refreshed.

POPS'I found Saddam's WMD bunkers' This coincides with the preliminary reports that were coming out of Iraq & Syria when the invasion began. I *heard* them from independent sources. They even had aerial photos showing the lines of vehicles crossing the borders. I don't believe so many global intelligent sources were wrong at the time and I don't understand why the Administration has stonewalled investigations by our representatives and others. This person, and others who are convinced of the fact that WMDs were there, would have no reason to pursue something they *know* to be a lie; especially when the Administration has acquiesced and rolled over on the issue.

POPSNew Firefox Web browser to be released Tuesday I had downloaded Firefox 3 and that's when I had problems with the Clipmarks orange box and clipping. When I went back to the older version it worked fine. Hopefully with the official release, it can be resolved. I can't wait to try it out. But like others, I have extensions that have become part of my internet life. :~)

POPSSchoolgirls in the gunsights of the Taliban I found this was/is a common practice of the Taliban (and others of their ilk) when I recently read "A Thousand Splendid Suns", by Khaled Hosseini. I highly recommend it to give us a more clear picture of the enemy and culture of death that we face.

POPSGen. David Petraeus beats megastar Angeline Jolie.... People in the *real* world know who is truly important. No disrespect to Ms. Jolie, but her influence is minimal when it comes to life & death issues. This is also true of Crews, Baldwin, Franken, Hayden, etc..... Celebrities are useless when it comes to getting things accomplished. Nice article that gives credit where credit is due.

POPSIraq, and the Truth We Dare Not Speak I couldn't clip the foundational paragraph of this excellent article. It explains the contrary poles of American thinking and the danger of the current public opinions in America.

POPSThe Gratitude Campaign This happened to me in the Mall last week. I wanted to....but felt weird. I don't think I will the next time. :~)

POPSSmall group of US experts insist global warming not man-made This makes sense!!! Greenland was called 'Greenland' all those years ago for a reason! The dinosaurs frozen in time...for a reason. Tropical plants found encased in ice..for a reason! These are climate changes that occur naturally; not from *necessarily* anything that human beings do.

POPSHe's back: Sandy Berger now advising Hillary Clinton Amazing! Though not so surprising. These people have no shame. Any Republican involved in *unusual* sex is tarred & feathered. They are accused of 'phony' slander and denounced on the Senate floor. They have a memory lapse and are convicted of perjury. Yet, Mr. Berger gets a slap on the wrist for stealing classified information and then lying about it. But he only has to bide his time and wait for the Clintons to call and he's back at their political and corrupted money trough. Any American, Rep. or Dem., should be appaulled that a convicted National Security chief would be hired to work for and advise a potential President of the United States.

POPS220,000 condoms off to Myanmar I think I'm going to be ill. This is a priority of the UN? This is where our tax dollars go? When people are starving, unhoused, grieving, disease threatened...the UN wants to make sure these desperate people receive enough condoms?? FTA: "Cyclone Nargis left at least 133 000 people dead and missing, and aid groups had complained that supplies were not getting to survivors quickly enough because of limitations imposed by the ruling junta." Now there's a problem that the UN needs to remedy and address. (stuck on stupid indeed!)

POPSdon't mess with porcupines :~( A Pit bull decided he would battle a Porcupine in back of his house here in Southern California .. But being both brave and stupid, he ultimately learned the hard way that he can't always win, no matter how tough you are... A vet sedated the dog, and then removed a total of 1,347 quills. The dog survived, and hopefully learned a valuable lesson.

POPSThanks and Praise Well, this is different. A momentary exhibition of freedom of religion in, of all places, Iraq.

POPSSarkozy tells Iran it faces attack over atomic program Wow. That came out of no where. I can not imagine what is going to happen. Gone are the days when, as Israel did years ago, someone can sneak in and just blow up their nuclear structures. And with China, N. Korea, Russia supporting Iran, they really have no incentive.

POPSTV airing for Islam's story of Christ I have not problem with this. PBS puts out stuff that bears no resemblance to what I consider orthodox Christianity all the time. It's just another's religious opinion; whether secular or Islamic. But I agree with Mr. Sookdeo...how would the extremist Muslim's respond in kind? Genuine Christians rest in the truth of their Faith. No longer is there the need or an understanding that there's a Biblical mandate to demand that other's believe as we do.

POPSBush never lied to us about Iraq Oh....but the lie is so much more delicious and makes the "critics" sound so pious. If it will taint the "selected " President, then it doesn't matter if it's true or not.
