POPSMake Someone's Day Over There This is actually my own design. What do you think? It's intended to be both whimsical and practical, it could be vital field equipment for a lot of soldiers - but you know how it is; it won't be issued. <br><br> It might be particularly useful for getting orders on the record - just, you know, in case. <br><br> For most, I hope, it will be a really simple way of making a video diary for the folks back home.

POPSUproar As Top Police Cleared of Attack on Genoa G8 Protesters At least 150 police officers stormed the Armando Diaz school on the night of July 21 2001, after three days of violence in Genoa that left more than 200 people injured and a protester dead. Police chiefs later claimed the school was occupied by the violently disruptive Black Bloc faction. If that is what rank-and-file officers were told, it may explain the viciousness with which they laid into the protesters. Briton Nicola Doherty was hit so hard on an arm with which she was shielding her face that her wrist was broken. The attack put 28 of 93 people arrested in hospital - three of them on the critical list. Mark Covell, a volunteer with the Indymedia news network, was unconscious for 14 hours. He suffered eight broken ribs, a punctured lung and 10 missing or broken teeth.

POPSWhen Obama Met Bush, Posturing Caught
Flashing back in case you missed it. Obama's actions were very arrogant (even toward Bush) and presumptuous, which says a whole lot about the President elect. Confidence and arrogance are not the same thing. It is natural for one to defend their legitimate authority (Bush) and to treat the presumptuous with hints and reminders if they behave forwardly, especially when the "show is on" (cameras rolling). The power struggle was caught by the lens. Some are smiling more than others. Barack, who claims to be a Christian, shows bad manners here, for Jesus plainly taught about the humble patiently waiting to be "called up" toward the head of the table. Obama is not yet officially President, nor have the White House. This foreshadows a lot! Beware of the humble appearing leader as soon as he assumes power. Finish the proverb, "Absolute power corrupts...." No one in this article mentioned Michelle's "Diva red"--shoulders to toes--while Barack and Bush dressed almost identical.

POPSFirst Bush-Obama Meeting: Hard Feelings and Hand Sanitizer
"I hope you don't mind me giving you a piece of advice." "Not at all, Mr. President," Obama told the commander-in-chief. "You've got a bright future," Bush said presciently. "Very bright. But I've been in this town awhile and, let me tell you, it can be tough. When you get a lot of attention like you've been getting, people start gunnin' for ya. And it won't necessarily just be coming from my side, you understand. From yours, too. Everybody'll be waiting for you to slip, know what I mean? So watch yourself." Bush then noted that he and Obama had something in common. "We both had to debate Alan Keyes," the president said. "That guy's a piece of work, isn't he?" Obama laughed and even "put my arm around his shoulder as we talked," he recalled, although he added the gesture "might have made many of my friends, not to mention the Secret Service agents in the room, more than a little uneasy." Despite this display of bonhomie, Obama said the president's demeanor turned down
