POPSDow Chemical - the human side
On the day that Sunil died, Dow Chemical’s CEO Andrew Liveris visited the UN to deliver a much-publicised speech. Fireboats hired by Dow’s public relations agency jetted huge sprays aloft over the Hudson River as Liveris told the assembled diplomats “Lack of clean water is the single largest cause of disease in the world and more than 4,500 children die each day because of it … We are determined to win a victory over the problem of access to clean water for every person on earth … we need to bring to the fight the kinds of things companies like Dow do best.” Stirring words. But when asked if he would clean up Bhopal, where the drinking wells of 20,000 people have been poisoned by chemicals abandoned by Dow’s subsidiary Union Carbide, causing an epidemic of cancers and hundreds of children to be born malformed and with brain damage, Liveris replied, “We don’t feel this is our responsibility”.

POPSMultidimensional space through art Generally for the sake of the illusion of 3 Dimensions and perspective. There are plenty of artists beside Escher that represent multidimensional space, but he does a particularly good job of it. The last stereogram at the bottom is the thinker. I ran out of characters. (you can always go to the site.) Stereograms can be annoying sometimes when you can't see what it is, and everyone else can. It can be like that, then suddenly one day a picture can jump out. It can help if you know what you're looking for. One problem with these may be looking too hard, when the eyes are probably better off relaxing.

POPSRow over Russian held Art
Confirming the Russian move, Zinaida Bonami, of Moscow's Pushkin Fine Arts Museum, said the Russian federal cultural agency notified them on Tuesday that it would not issue an export license for the works, which include The Dance by Matisse and Maternity by Gaugin. This month Russia ordered the British Council to suspend its operations outside Moscow, accusing it of operating illegally — a decision Foreign Secretary David Miliband said threatened to damage Moscow's global standing. e said descendants of two prominent 19th and early 20th century Russian art collectors, Sergei Shchukin and Ivan Morozov, had not ruled out legal action over their claims to the works. In 2003 Shchukin's grandson, Andre Marc Delocque-Fourcaud, sued in an unsuccessful bid to remove from the Pushkin's travelling exhibition paintings he claims the Bolsheviks looted from his grandfather in 1918. Delocque-Fourcaud's complaint centred on 25 artworks which included paintings by Picasso, Degas and Van Gogh
