POPSNanotech raises 'toxic sock' alert I didn't know it was Silver that they used as an antibacterial in socks, but now I'll have to treat my socks with more respect. Like with color, sometimes the silver was 'set' sometimes most of it was gone in the first wash. They need to work with the manufacturers to find a way of getting the silver to stay on the sock.

POPSSo, how evil is Facebook, really? I use Facebook every day now. I'm pretty well hooked. But this article, which talks about the intellectual pedigree (Girard), political sympathies ("Thatcherite") and financial connections (the CIA) of its board, gives me the creeps in a big way.

POPSR.J. Reynolds to cease Print Advertising Don't get me wrong, cigarette ads targeted toward children are pretty wrong (and I am a smoker) I have to ask what exactly parents are doing letting their young daughters read magazines like Cosmopolitan, Glamour and Vogue.

POPS Toxic Toys On The Web::MarkMonitor.com Reports MarkMonitor Reports Recalled Toys Continue to Be Sold Online and Gift Card Scams Threaten Identities These tracked toys--Dora the Explorer, Thomas the Tank Engine, Elmo and Barbie--were pulled from retail shelves in early August, the beginning of a wave of recalls that purged more than 12 million toys coated with toxic lead paint or featuring dangerous, swallow-able magnets. All were made in China Mark Monitor's analysts say they could determine from posted images or item descriptions that around 30% of those items listed on eBay were in fact the recalled versions, banned for toxic contamination or dangerous magnets. MarkMonitor also sifted through three business-to-business exchange sites--Alibaba.com and Made-in-China.com, and iOffer, which sell products to retailers. In this case, the firm's analysts found that around 8% of the listings--some of which offered hundreds of toys--offered one of the four tracked toys.

POPSJim Beam Bourbon - profits climb I'd think based on sales of Jim Beam, they'd do good regardless of how the market is doing, however I would think sales of wine & spirits would rise even farther if the market was in a decline!
