POPSSome New Hampshire Voters Want to Vote on Gay Marriage At town meetings several localities have passed resolutions requesting a vote of the people on gay marriage. 133 of New Hampshire's 221 towns will be voting on this issue. So far 42 towns have passed the measure 7 have rejected the measure and a few others decided not to cast votes on the measure. I think the debate is healthy and it will make gay civil rights stronger as we continue to tell our stories and stand up for ourselves.

POPSBrain scan can read your mind
In the study, Maguire and her colleagues Martin Chadwick, Demis Hassabis, and Nikolaus Weiskopf showed 10 people each three very short films before brain scanning. Each movie featured a different actress and a fairly similar everyday scenario. The researchers scanned the participants' brains while the participants were asked to recall each of the films. The researchers then ran the imaging data through a computer algorithm designed to identify patterns in the brain activity associated with memories for each of the films. Finally, they showed that those patterns could be identified to accurately predict which film a given person was thinking about when he or she was scanned. The results imply that the traces of episodic memories are found in the brain, and are identifiable, even over many re-activations, the researchers said. The results reinforce the findings of a 2008 US study that showed similar scans can determine what images people are seeing based on brain activity.

POPSThe Scientific Investigation Method The final task in a scientific investigation is to identify the problem that is to be investigated. We must determine what we want to find out and why the investigation needs to be carried out. The problem is normally identified through observations and is based on certain facts.

POPSThe World’s Last Wilderness: Antarctica’s Uncertain Future Scientists think that Antarctica’s continental shelves hold the most promise. In 1973 the U.S. drilling ship Glamor Challenger found quantities of ethane and methane gases, provoking speculation that the southern polar seas contain vast oil fields. The results of seismological surveys of rocks beneath the seabed are encouraging. And although no oil has yet been found, some U.S. experts have predicted a reservoir of 45 billion barrels, almost twice the known reserves in the entire United States.

POPSThe Story of a Sign Generosity is often locked within the "Safe" of the heart, whose combination has been forgotten by its owner. Many try to "dynamite" the "Safe" to get at the contents, but without results. Then someone comes along who knows the "Combination" to all "Safes," opens them, and the Generosity within pours forth.

POPSPoisoned Rain Water Rain water was tested to learn the effects of chemtrails. This video would have been better if the facts were presented PRIOR to the angry rant, I suggest you bear with the introductory claims (or fast forward) to get to the results of the test.We find that high levels of boron, arsenic, aluminum,etc.are in rain water, which should be pure. Effects of exposure to these toxic levels are also provided.I should add that there are ways to cleanse the body of heavy metals.

POPSSen. Kirk Must Step Down; Brown Election To Be Certified Thursday
which includes the controversial M. Patricia Smith nomination. This reversal comes days after several inquiries with the Brown campaign, in addition to Senator Mitch McConnell’s office, as to why interim Senator Paul Kirk is still voting on legislation"providing the 60th vote in some cases"and preserving the Democrat supermajority in Congress. I explained the Senate rules and customary application, including: Many states limit the term of office for interim senators to the date set for the special election. In these cases, the term of the interim senator expires immediately upon the election of the popularly chosen successor, who serves the balance of the Senate term, whether it is a few weeks or several years. Moreover, when an interim appointment is made late in the term, it is often customary for the interim senator to resign his or her seat immediately after the election, and for the governor to appoint the special election
