POPSPlease Don't Shoot Me! Don't point movie guns at audience MPAA says! Cont... Still, the Motion Picture Association Of America doesn't want to take any chances, which is why they told the director of Watchmen, Zack Snyder, that he couldn't have a guy pointing a gun at the audience in the trailer. Snyder replaced the gun with a walkie-talkie. This way, if anyone from 1903 watches the trailer, instead of ducking and/or running for their life, they'll just drop their bowler hat, curl up into a ball, rock back and forth, and mumble into their shirtwaist, "What world is this? What is happening to me? Where am I?"

POPSWashington Docs Oppose I-1000 Their position ignores the fact that the person is dying. There is no possibility to heal and avoid death. It will come eventually and if I'm terminal I want to be in charge when it does.

POPSHunger striking for justice These aren't fit and healthy youngsters, some of the strikers are 70 - fighting for their grandchildren - for clean water after 24 years - for the right to heath care - the right to live on uncontaminated soil and drink clean water - the right to have their nightmare ended. What else can they do?

POPSA little Kiss The older lady was thinking, "Isn't it wonderful that even in this permissive day and age there are still young women who have a little self-respect and dignity?" The young woman, shaking her head and greatly puzzled, asked herself, "Why in the world would any man in his right mind want to kiss an old fossil like that when I'm sitting here?" The Sergeant Major, rubbing his sore face, was outraged that any woman could ever think that a man in his position would try to sneak a kiss in the dark. And the private, grinning from ear to ear, was thinking, "What a crazy and mixed up world this is when a private can kiss the back of his hand and then smack a Sergeant Major in the face and get away with it!"

POPSMental health services neglect of dignity alright hopefully this will stir people into action mental health is highly stigmatised probably due to its past It still begs for a lot of improvement its seems to me psychiatrists are taken as infallible,while other aspects of life and treatment are ignored other than the purely intellectual analytical scientific standpoint I know its improving but it has a long way to go people need to wake up from their routine and the status quo and be more caring

POPSThis Man "The blood and water flowed... and the veil was torn so we could have this open door... only beauty flowed from this place... Would you take the place of this Man?... Would you take the nails from His hands?" In only a moment truth was seen, revealed this mystery The crown that showed no dignity, He wore And the king was placed for all the world to show disgrace But only beauty flowed from this place Chorus: Would you take the place of this Man Would you take the nails from His hands Would you take the place of this Man Would you take the nails from His hands He held the weight of impurity The father would not see the reasons had finally come to be to show The depth of His grace flowed with every sin erased He knew that this was why He came Chorus: And we just don't know The blood and water flowed And in it all He showed just how much He cared And the veil was torn so we could have this open door And all these things have finally been complete Chorus

POPSThe Amerikkan Beast Still Lives A significant number of soldiers are screaming that something is terribly wrong with the leadership and judgement of those who pushed us into this war — the false reasons for starting it; the slipshod manner in which it was begun; the lack of support for those on the ground; and the lies to the soldiers; not to mention the broken promises that Iraqis have suffered. And we at home are lied to when we are told that the US has "turned this war around." While hostilities have reduced, it is quite far from being turned around.

POPSGreenwald: House Democrats 'Downright Pathetic' on FISA Glenn Greenwald's a constitutional scholar and it's nice to see that someone out there still gives a damn about the Bill of Rights. House leadership sure doesn't. When Republicans wanted to lynch the Fourth Amendment, Democrats bravely offered to buy the rope.

5) POLICE # 1 While taking a routine vandalism report at an elementary school, I was interrupted by a little girl about 6 years old. Looking up and down at my uniform, she asked, ‘Are you a cop?’ ‘Yes,’ I answered and continued writing the report. ‘My mother said if I ever needed help I should ask the police. Is that right?’ ‘Yes, that’s right,’ I told her. ‘Well, then,’ she said as she extended her foot toward me, ‘would you please tie my shoe? ‘ (Don’t ya love that??????) 9) DEATH While walking along the sidewalk in front of his church, our minister heard the intoning of a prayer that nearly made his collar wilt. Apparently, his 5-year-old son and his playmates had found a dead robin. Feeling that proper burial should be performed, they had secured a small box and cotton batting, then dug a hole and made ready for the disposal of the deceased. The minister’s son was chosen to say the appropriate prayers and with sonorous dignity intoned his version of what he thought his fa

POPSCheif Justice George assults individual rights This is a bait and switch exactly as Lincoln did. If you read the 13th Amendment very carefully you will realize that in no place does it mention anything about freeing the slaves. What it actually does is make us all equal. There is a huge difference between the two and this is always overlooked by educational institutions. It was a way of removing some individual rights and redefining us all under the Union whether everyone liked it or not. the details are too much to go into here in a clip. I only bring this up because the recent ruling in California allowing gay marriage was handled identically. The guy who wrote this article did an excellent job of breaking this fact down. Our laws apply to us as members of a group now and not as individuals as this shows. It is extremely dangerous for us as a nation to allow laws to be worded in this way and subtly shows the erosion of individual rights unless framed in a corporate environment.

POPSCatholic-Shiite Dialogue - Reasonable Understanding Against the background of these existing contacts between the Vatican and Muslim authorities, one can look forward with anticipation to the first meeting of the Catholic-Muslim Forum, scheduled for early November. The forum was founded following a meeting in the Vatican in March this year, which itself was the result of a letter written in October 2007 by 138 Muslim scholars from 43 countries to the pope and other representatives of the Christian churches. The topic of the forthcoming meeting is to be "Love of God and neighbour." The Vatican-Shiite dialogue is also set to continue: another colloquium is planned for two years time in Tehran.

POPSA Warrior's Dignity I like reading about stuff like this, the little guy, doing something great that people might never notice, but with such a drive and purpose in mind, that it puts me to shame. He also has a good sense of humour about things.
