POPSA Writer in a Living Novel 
Ms. Chute, 61, a wry, direct and earthy woman who favors bandannas, peasant skirts and stout hiking boots, works in their home, which is guarded by a sign that reads: “Woa. Visitors Turn Back.” Neither building is heated, except by wood stove, or has hot water. The compound’s sole toilet is a tin-roofed outhouse. The Chute home does have an industrial-size copying machine, however, and nearby she keeps her AK-47 rifle, which she likes because it has a gas piston that dampens recoil. “It’s very gentle, very soft,” she said. Ms. Chute, whose fourth novel, “The School on Heart’s Content Road,” comes out on Friday, had a surprise hit in the mid-’80s with her first book, “The Beans of Egypt, Maine,” about a hard-luck, occasionally incestuous clan that some critics compared to Faulkner’s Snopeses. “If it runs, a Bean will shoot it,” she wrote. “If it falls, a Bean will eat it.” The book’s empathy and precise observation derived, it turned out, from personal experience.

POPSRepublicans making Death Threats & Hack Attacks

Unabashedly I have, here in clipmarks, said things like these people were Monsters...they will not die nor give up power unless utterly stomped into the ground...they are like a vampire who will not die to a wooden stake is firmly driven into the ground. I wasn't kidding. I'm serious. The McCain-Palin campaign has also fueled this violence of mob shouting, death threats, computer hacks, robbery, mailing of 'suspicious packages," etc. This story just brings this to light in mainstream news -- it's normally a darkness hidden in the shadows, but it's upfront now. Can you imagine what Obama must put up with? It's truly horrible, real, omnipresent, thug politics at it's worse and we're flooded with it. Ms. Brunner's crime? - 'Cause she stopped Republican efforts of voter su

POPSThe Pro- Family Tax I think that a pro- family tax is really a great idea because families that don't earn much annually have tax cuts in which families can use for essential living expenses.

POPSOur Hackable Democracy Last month, Princeton researchers submitted a report based on their study of the machines' security, part of an ongoing lawsuit filed by Rutgers Constitutional Litigation Clinic against the state government aimed at decertifying Sequoia machines. The results of the study still aren’t known: A judge placed a gag order on the researchers that prevents them from publishing their work. "Any reasonably talented security researcher can compromise these machines" In fact, California's study of Sequoia's machines found that any poll worker with access to Sequoia's machines could quickly change the results of an election. In 2006, researchers at Princeton found that a Diebold machine could be hacked in less than a minute. There's a possibility their votes will be hacked, lost or miscounted. But that's no excuse not to vote, argues Smith. "You'll just have to take a chance," she says. "The only way to be sure your vote won't count is not to show up.
