POPSI now know why Pot is illegal How on earth would they be able to generate profit, if we weren't wearing holes in our Chinese factory made clothing every two weeks?And, of course, this is a plant that anyone could grow, it is a WEED. If it was used as fuel source (as I was told it would be a excellent use for...), how would they ever profiteer once the average person figured out how to make hemp oil, or each local community had a grower who would supply the fuel. Where would the oil billionaires be? It is absolutely criminal that this plant is illegal. How dare they take away such a valuable resource that could provide such benefit for people & the earth, at a low cost?

POPSWomen not fooled by Palin ploy There was certainly speculation that Obama needed to choose a woman - or one women in particular, Hillary Clinton. But the get-out-the-vote effort among those under 30 and women was so well honed that almost all of even the most disgruntled Clinton supporters were swayed by election day. It was the youth vote from the outset that marked this election as different. Every four years we hear of a politician who is firing up college students and first-time voters. But no one has been this successful. No one has reached out person-to-person as effectively. Even in solidly Republican states like South Carolina, Obama took the youth vote. Some of this is because Obama conducted a ridiculously youth-friendly campaign, using web-based social networking and text-messaging get out the vote.

POPSDubai: Boom and Busted One of the two was in Dubai to set up a business enterprise in the booming city. He was, obviously, unaware of the conservative Muslim influence. Suffice it to say, I have no plans to go get arrested in Dubai.

POPSNot My Financial Crisis -- I've Got Literally Nothing to Lose
CONTUNED: "I haven't heard much from or about people like me in the last month. Watching the media report on the crisis, you'd think the United States had achieved the Republican dream of becoming a full-fledged "ownership society" populated by an upwardly mobile class of home-owning day traders sitting on fat nest eggs. But it hasn't. So here's a news flash from the young-and-indebted demographic: Those of us without retirement plans or health insurance, who just barely make rent and buy food in the real economy, a lot of us aren't as scared as maybe we should be. We have our own gut take on the disappearance of $9 trillion in electronic NYSE casino chips. And that is, we could give a shit. ... "Scraping by will likely become even harder in the days ahead for people in my income bracket. But it seems to me that a decade of scraping by is good practice for whatever's coming. And it's just a fact that this particular era of capitalism hasn't been very good for those of us a

POPSHistoric Figures That Were Celibate He spent years inventing things he never got credit for, like the light bulb and radio, and even believed he could control the weather. He also felt that sex was a drain on creativity and completely pushed aside any woman that was interested in him. Sarah Bernhardt, a famous actress, tried her hardest to woo him but he considered her to be little more than a distraction from inventing a death ray. When asked about marriage, he replied: “I do not think you can name many great inventions that have been made by married men.”

POPSGreat Idea - Now Make it Even Better This bike, despite its cost, looks like a pretty great idea. It's much lower scale than getting a moped or scooter, but still provides power to get you around. Now if they really wanted to make this a great bike, they'd set it up so that if you pedal instead of using the motor, your pedaling charges the batery. Maybe that'll come in the next version?

POPSIs the Web making young people vote? Youth voter turnout has increased in recent elections, including this year's primaries. I believe the Web has made it easier and more interesting to be politically engaged -- and young people are connecting online.

POPSHow Chuck Schumer Set Off A Bank Panic
or employee of a bank which Schumer decides to attack. Indymac Bank was having trouble, of course, before, but nothing as serious as a bank run. Bank runs, after all, are very rare in modern history. So why a 30s style bank panic now? Why Indymac? Because the left hated them. Indymac has been in the crosshairs for some time. The trial lawyers started going after them about a month ago. Not long after that, Schumer started sending letters to regulators attacking Indymac, questioning the financial viability of a bank which he had never examined. Neither Schumer, nor any of his staff even bothered to contact Indymac with any questions. Unsatisfied with the response, Schumer leaked his letters to the press. The local paper in Pasadena (where the bank is located) played along, and ran the story with a headline strongly suggesting insolvency. Of course, the next day depositors lined up at the door and started withdrawing money. Over the next 11 days, $1.3 billion came out. Indymac.

POPS24 Unforgettable Advertisements Just another set of weirdness that we human beings do to get attention. Marked Mature for the PETA ad as I will err on the side of caution... The Giant Prop ads remind me of the old TV shows and the movies of the 30s and 40s where they were very common... My favorite? The Mini Cooper ad... Priceless!

POPSChristians & Muslims beleive god wants you to marry only virgins... Or you have to at least believe he USED to require it... cuz there are many passages in the old testament that indicate you should stone your wife if you find out she's not a virgin on her wedding night... I guess god changes his morality based on the age however - since we're not supposed to do this anymore right?
