POPSHow the Grinch Stole Health Care There's a scene from the animated version of "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" that fits George W. Bush to a tee. The lines from the poem read: And the one speck of food that he left in the house was a crumb that was even too small for a mouse. Then he did the same thing to the other Whos' houses, leaving crumbs much too small for the other Whos' mouses! But in the 1966 televised adaptation of Dr. Seuss' classic, the Grinch actually goes back for that final crumb, leaving the family with... nothing. This scene is remindful of yet another last-minute move by our president to inflict hardship on those less fortunate than he is. (And what an appropriate time of year for Bush to demonstrate his aptitude for misgovernance.)

POPSWorking hard to be genius! "These are stories about people who were given a special opportunity to work really hard and seized it, and who happened to come of age at a time when that extraordinary effort was rewarded by the rest of society." Very interesting. there is a tendency to prefer stories of sudden success, hidden fate, and so on Vs. the ones that mention the hard work it takes to be a genius. i think it is related to responsibility. whereas in the first it seems like it is 'out of my control' so i, the human involved, just have to accept and agree to the circumstances. The latter stresses the point that one parameter that is involved has a lot to do with what one is doing and how much he is willing to prioritize his resources toward a direction...

POPSWhy can't we hear the transmissions of Aliens? Some people insist that the Earth has been leaking signals into space for the last few decades and by now we should have gotten someone's attention or heard someone else out there leaking signals. The fact is that you would need a radio dish the size of the Arecibo dish (pictured above) to pick up a good signal only as far away as Saturn. Any farther than that and even that dish will only yield static.

POPSTransgendered scientists challenge Larry Summers hypothesis "Being first a female scientist and then a male scientist has given Prof. Barres a unique perspective on the debate over why women are so rare at the highest levels of academic science and math: He has experienced personally how each is treated by colleagues, mentors and rivals."

POPSGeek vs. Nerd vs. Dork I don't know if I agree with everything in here, but the list is pretty spot on for the most part... I definitely define myself as a geek, and match up pretty well with that here :)
