POPSHow Gravity Works And What If We Didn't Have It
and the water in the oceans, lakes and rivers. Without gravity, the air in the atmosphere has no reason to hang around, and it would immediately leap into space. This is the problem the moon has -- the moon doesn't have enough gravity to keep an atmosphere around it, so it's in a near vacuum. Without an atmosphere, any living thing would die immediately and anything liquid would boil away into space. If gravity were to suddenly double, It would be almost as bad, because everything would be twice as heavy. There would be big problems with anything structural. Houses, bridges, skyscrapers, table legs, support columns and so on are all sized for normal gravity. Most structures would collapse fairly quickly if you doubled the load on them.Trees and plants would have problems. Power lines would have problems. The air pressure would double and that would have a big effect on the weather. What this answer shows you is just how integral gravity is to our world.

POPSWyeth and Elan: Reinventing the Wheel? Adam Feuerstein at TheStreet.com is asking a pointed question about the way Wyeth and Elan are conducting a big study of their Alzheimer's drug. Why, exactly, are the companies trying to design a new way to measure Alzheimer's symptoms, and is doing so really such a good idea?

POPSTata Reveals World's cheapest car
Said to look like a mango, at the presentation, it was driven on stage It is also said to be a transport solution for India (and another oil market.), The 'Austere' version comes with no radio, air conditioning, one windscreen wiper. (Why does the passenger need to know where they're going?) and no side mirror (In India a side mirror would be knocked off easily. There are fears by environmentalists of an acceleration of the pollution problem, but there is no reason the principle can't be applied to an eco friendly model. The road rules in India are noted for their practicality. Apart from the fact that Elephants, and Cows are given the right of way, the right of way is given in order of size. Train,truck,car,Tata Nano,bicycle,pedestrian. Pedestrians and cyclists need to be careful. Parking would be a night mare. They just need to design a vertical parking lot where the cars are left, and stacked on a shelf until the driver returns. I saw a Japanese idea like this in a clip

POPSThe London Eye The view from one of the gondolas (or whatever they call them) must be spectacular. It was built for the turn of the century.

POPSModern version of the Big Wheel! They are both too big for Big Wheels, and have outgrown the Plasma Cars. This is a cool in-between for racing around the cul-de-sac! $80 at JCPenney.

POPSBlogging to the bank 2 I could kick myself . It works. I am making money following his methods. Now I know many have written in detail about the various methods but my approach is "Why invent the wheel?" I simply followed his Blogging to the Bank 2 steps one by one and the thing works. I could kick myself. A years income lost! Anyway if you know what you are doing with blogs then this will be a doddle for you and introduce a System - which is essential. If you are clueless about blogs then Rob walks you step by step through every stage. After that its down to you to rinse and repeat. You know what they "horse to water" etc? Well try Blogging to the bank 2.I think you will get a big surprise.

POPSSMO Elite This is the way I actually do business an these guys have hardened it up. Brilliant work. I wish I had wrote this. Still why reinvent the wheel? Basically they are giving Google , Yahoo and MSN the Finger! ...and harvesting loads of free traffic every day. How they do it is simple and logical...

POPSIrish defence forces eyed UFO's for 37 years There was a movie called "They Live" where aliens took over the earth by subliminal brainwashing of the masses. Could our leaders be from outer space? There is just this little corner of my mind that occasionally wonders "what if?"
