POPS GOP Trifecta? But it can be difficult to draw broader conclusions from off-year contests, which often turn on local issues. ************************************************** Revolt in New York Beltway bigs misjudged public dismay against the Democratic agenda in Washington. Picked by GOP elites without a primary and with a voting record to the left of many Albany Democrats, Ms. Scozzafava faced a revolt by local and national conservatives in favor of businessman Doug Hoffman, who was nominated on the Conservative Party line. The longtime GOP assemblywoman saw herself falling in the polls and yesterday endorsed Democratic lawyer Bill Owens, who could still win the GOP-leaning seat with a plurality. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703932904574509633956777194.html?mod=loomia&loomia_si=t0:a16:g2:r4:c0.0565713:b28671837

POPSRAF: 'That (UFOs) exist is indisputable.' more (at source): "If the reports are taken at face value then devices exist that do not use conventional reaction propulsion systems, they have a very wide range of speeds and are stealthy. I suggest we could use the technology, if it exists." The internal debate in the MoD came to a head in 1995, when documents were made public revealing that UFO reports were routinely copied to specialist "Defence Intelligence" branches. An exasperated intelligence office wrote to the UFO Desk: "I see no reason for continuing to deny that (Defence Intelligence) has an interest in UFOs.

POPSBrown's treachery
Twelve years I have been writing this. Personal experience means nothing to a government that is wholly interested in self preservation, greed and envy. Had the military the courage of the troopie, the Brass would have stuffed Health & Safety up the politicos arsehole. All too often we are witnessing the legacy of politicians enforcing political correctness on a way of life that not a one has the faintest clue about. Only recently I have witnessed young officers doing a single tour of the battle zones, to come home and resign, yet The Brass does nothing. What have these honourable and courageous young people witnessed that has marked them so badly? Every piece of video news from The Front fills me with anger as I witness my life’s work being destroyed with the needless waste of all these young lives. Young Brits who ought to have gaining from my generations knowledge, but they have not. Whilst I salute the valour and contribution of the women on the front line, I cannot help bu

POPS15 Most RIDICULOUS Car Mods You Will Ever See I would like to see the impact ratings for the obese Cadillac. I am betting that 'mod' boosted the impact ratings. Kind of like slamming into a sumo wrestler. The WTF pt. 1 and 2 are vans from Japan styled in the Bosozoku fashion. Trucks like #10 used to be all over the place...back in 1996. That Nintendo valve cover was freaking genius. Picture # 8 is not a mod. That is a standard night headlight assembly for a rally car. These drivers are often doing +150kmph on a road designed for 80kmph in the dead of night; they kinda need really powerful high beams to see the road ahead of them well. Albeit, it may be on some dudes stock Impreza instead of an actual rally car, but it is not a mod anymore than having a roof rack to hold some skis.

POPSLies, and The pee-Resident Who Tells Them The deceased’s sister testified that the insurer reinstated her brother’s coverage following intervention by the Illinois Attorney General’s Office. She testified that her brother received a prescribed stem-cell transplant within the desired three- to four-week “window of opportunity” from “one of the most renowned doctors in the whole world on the specific routine,” that the procedure “was extremely successful,” and that “it extended his life nearly three and a half years.” That’s just one of them. There are more. With this Pinocchio-nose piece of shit, there always is.

POPSIs The TImes wrong? Bernard Grey does not pull his punches, while the MP responsible for Veterans ignores the more civil protests from aggrieved constituents. You want us to fight for you but you are not ready to honour your debt. Vote a politician and get a rogue.

POPSShocking suicide toll on combat veterans Hardly suprising, since you have soldiers fighting a war they know to be totally ILLEGAL and UNJUST. It is still some way behind the the American forces suicide rate. Which allegedly is by way of ratio, FOUR times the National Average.

POPS"Just stop being lazy": on being diagnosed with ADD/ADHD as an adult
I know there are teachers out there, and parents, who would tell a kid with cerebral palsy not to flail like that, who would tell a kid with Down Syndrome to “stop being so stupid.” I spent the first eighteen years of my life hearing people telling me, in effect, to just stop having ADD. I have spent the last three decades telling myself the same thing. I want to call the last 46 years, struggling with this problem, this sieve of distraction clamped around my mind that has only just now begun to dissolve — I want to call it a waste. That would be silly. I’ve accomplished a hell of a lot…accomplishments look all the rosier now that I know I scaled those hills with a hidden bag of cement in my pack. But I’m sorrowful that it took so long. And I’m angry — searingly angry — to think of that eight-year-old’s enthusiasm as it succumbed to frustration and repeated insult, and to think of the twelve-year-old he became, certain that he was the worst waste of skin in the world.

POPSCommodore 64 laptop... Not coming to a store near you. I'm so jealous of the people that have time to do this stuff... I can't begin to imagine how much fun it would be to build something like this. And even more fun would be the reaction you get from people when you show it off. This really brings back some memories for me. I never had a c64 myself but several of my friends did and I remember being in awe over them... I would really love to get my hands on one now!

POPSBombs in Paradise For decades, British ex-servicemen who were stationed on Christmas Island in the South Pacific in the 1950s have been embroiled in legal battles, trying to win recognition for their work and compensation for poor health they say is the result of the nuclear tests. Their latest attempt to sue the British government goes before the High Court on Wednesday, when the Ministry of Defence (MoD) is expected to argue the claims have been brought too long after the events. If the MoD loses, the government could face its largest class action yet, involving claims for millions of pounds from 1,000 individuals, say the veterans' lawyers.
