POPSHearing Voices (of advertisers) Serious ethical issues are raised by some of the potential uses of hypersonic sound, because the projected messages are imposed upon people against their will, and could perhaps be used to subtly manipulate behaviour.

POPS500,000-year-old TB case 'found' 500,000-year-old TB case 'found' Scientists say they have discovered in Turkey the most ancient evidence of tuberculosis in a 500,000-year-old human fossil. Experts had thought TB emerged several thousand years ago - based on the remains of mummies from Egypt and Peru. The skeleton is of a young man believed to belong to the first human species to migrate out of Africa - Homo erectus. The dark-skinned Homo erectus, who migrated northward from low, tropical latitudes would have produced less vitamin D, which can weaken the immune system. They found a series of small lesions etched into the bone of the cranium whose shape and location they claim are characteristic of the Leptomeningitis tuberculosa, a form of TB that attacks the meninges lining of the brain. Dr Simon Mays, expert in human skeletal remains at English Heritage, said, until now, the most ancient case of TB recorded was from remains found in Italy dating back 5,000 years.

POPSShould XXX sites have to use a .XXX domain name? Once again a report shows why we can not legislate proper behavior. I personally think that an XXX domain would be a great way for all pornographers to have their own home on the web place to gather. But like other legislation of this nature it would be worthless to attempt if they are going to allow the porn industry to continue to cloak itself in the .com world to appear legitimate. Those who wish to seek out this type of "entertainment" will find it no matter where it resides in the community. Therefore creating a virtual "Red Light District" would probably work as well as prohibition did. This one certainly belongs in the LOONY BIN.
