POPSEmbarrasing Internet Mistakes With near-instantaneous communication via e-mail and IM, the Internet makes socializing and "hanging out" with your friends as easy as updating your Facebook profile But like any technology, the Internet is just a tool, and when you're driving at these lightning speeds on the information superhighway, one wrong move -- a misguided keystroke, a mistaken Reply All -- can lead to disaster, fast. Private matters become public in one hot instant, and, like the contents of Pandora's Box, some secrets don't go away so easily once they're out there. Here are 12 cautionary online tales that serve to remind us how garden variety office gossip and misinformation can now go global in a split second.

POPSObama "Green Jobs Czar" Van Jones Signed 9/11 "Truther" Document That is a Pandora's box they don't want to open. They are still actively trying to protect Obama. It is unimaginable that someone like Jones can hold such a high office in a Presidential administration and his radical views not be exposed. But it is happening before our eyes.

POPS Obama's Pandora's Box But with Obama it’s almost understandable. Almost. I mean, did he really expect to stab our intelligence officials in the back the way he’s done while simultaneously expecting those very people he’s stabbing to keep his own party’s hypocrisy on the subject a secret? Obama never should have opened this can of worms.

POPS Obama And The CIA He cynically subordinated the national interest to his partisan desire to embarrass the Republicans. Then he had to rush to Langley, Virginia to try to reassure a demoralised CIA that had just discovered the President of the United States was an even more formidable foe than al-Qaeda. "Don't be discouraged by what's happened the last few weeks," he told intelligence officers. Is he kidding? Thanks to him, al-Qaeda knows the private interrogation techniques available to the US intelligence agencies and can train its operatives to withstand them - or would do so, if they had not already been outlawed. So, next time a senior al-Qaeda hood is captured, all the CIA can do is ask him nicely if he would care to reveal when a major population centre is due to be hit by a terror spectacular, or which American city is about to be irradiated by a dirty bomb.

POPS The "Dirty Harry" Theory of Governance -- Do You Feel Lucky? 
When America's Founders revolted against "taxation without representation," this is precisely the kind of kingly diktat they had in mind. As Peter Glaser, an environmental lawyer at Troutman Sanders, told Congress in 2008, "The country will experience years, if not decades, of regulatory agony, as EPA will be required to undertake numerous, controversial, time-consuming, expensive and difficult regulatory proceedings, all of which ultimately will be litigated." Greenhouse gases mix in the atmosphere, and it doesn't matter where they come from. A ton of emissions from Ohio has the same effect on global CO2 as a ton emitted in China; and even if Ohio figured out a way to reduce its emissions to zero, it would still have no control over the carbon content in its ambient air. But under the law, EPA would be required to severely punish Ohio -- and every state -- for not complying with NAAQS. The EPA took the highly unusual step of not accompanying its endangerment finding with

POPSBBC documentaries dissecting modernity Brilliant documentary series. The first is about how Freud's psychology was used both to create the mass market and fascist propaganda. Edward Bernaise must be the most important person that have never heard of. Click 'online' to see on YouTube. I don't remember seeing them in the main BBC schedule.

POPSHAARP Now Fully Operational Some say the controversial HAARP array in Alaska is a continuation of Tesla's experiments that used electricity to create super weapons and it's also said to be able to modify the weather. I wonder if the increase in noctilucent clouds lately, has anything to do with this? Rumours abound, but it's definitely worth checking out. "the most dramatic geophysical manipulation since atmospheric explosions of nuclear bombs." --- Moreover, effects from the reckless use of these power levels in our natural shield -- the ionosphere -- could be cataclysmic according to some scientists. The Military's Pandora's Box Angels Dont Play This HAARP
