POPSPETA: Vegetarianism for Sexist Assholes More: You will undoubtedly be 100% unsurprised to learn that there are no videos or national tour featuring Rav, Paul and Ricardo making out with each other in their underwear to promote a healthier, planet-friendly lifestyle. That would be gay, and in its desperation to connect vegetarianism with priapistic heterosexuality, this site makes it very clear that vegetarianism is not for fags. In fact, there aren’t any other pictures of the Broccoli Boys…just their little bio sketches so we don’t miss the important point that they, unlike the Lettuce Ladies, are people. Any other treatment would, of course, violate Patriarchy’s First Law – you don’t treat guys like mindless dick-receptacles, because that’s what the ladies are for!

POPSAfghanistan: Krauthammer's Take If he tells you that his expertise in that area is useless and what you have to do is go to the other strategy, it's persuasive. The administration is refusing that advice, at least up until now, because it means a costly year, year and a half, two years " as we had in Iraq with the surge " that it thinks that politically it cannot afford.

Quite a few of these, we all have read already somewhere...but all of them together is really nice...

POPSJudgment Day While Mr. Letterman's consensual sexual relationships may not fit the moral values of the monogamous society we live in, extortion is a crime. The more interesting question to me is why he felt he had to make a public admission to private matters.

POPSNASA discovers ice may be extensive on Mars A little over six months later, more images of the same crater showed the ice was gone, leaving only brown dirt where the frozen water had been. That, too, was exactly what the scientists believed would happen: the ice had "sublimated," turning to invisible vapor in the thin, cold Martian atmosphere.

POPSBud Light Tailgate Approved | Grooler, Foozie Bud Light Tailgate Approved: Watching football, we saw a funny Bud Light ad tying into a website Tailgate Approved. Funny stuff parodies of the infomercial style advertisements (which themselves border on self-parody). My favorite on the site is the Tailgate ... Bud light tailgate approved, bud light grooler, grooler, bud light, bud light foozie, foozie.

POPSConvergent evolution
The huge fossil teeth of megalodon had been known for centuries and were once believed to be the fossilized tongues of dragons. Agassiz, noting that great white shark teeth and the fossil megalodon teeth were both serrated, lumped megalodon into the same genus, Carcharodon, (from the Greek karcharos, meaning sharp or jagged, and odous, meaning tooth). Agassiz was not, however, making an evolutionary judgment. In 1835, a young Charles Darwin was just then visiting the Galapagos Islands. There would be no theory of evolutionary descent for nearly 25 years. In fact, the brilliant Agassiz, who later became a professor at Harvard and the leading figure of natural history in the United States, forever resisted Darwin’s revolutionary ideas. Rejecting biological evolution, Agassiz defined species as a “thought of God.” His classification scheme signified nothing about shark origins. But over the next century, the idea that great whites evolved from megalodon took hold. << more at the

POPSWildfire evacuees grab pets and Bibles, then flee More: Lewis found himself surprised by his first reaction: He grabbed his Nikon digital camera, remembering his Gila Community College photography teacher’s instructions. “I don’t really know what I was thinking, except that I had to document this."… Finally, he realized he had to stop taking photographs and get out. “So I took my medical records, dog food, camera, laptop, clothes, a box of old photos of my children,” including his son with the head injury sustained in Baghdad and his 32-year-old art teacher daughter.” He also took his Bible and, of course, his two dogs — Karma and Smokey, an interesting combination for canine fire survivors. Later, he realized that he left all of his books and papers and schoolwork. He also left all his materials for the “diet craze” for which he’d signed up. “Left all that stuff behind — don’t know if that’s forethought or afterthought,” he mused.

POPSArtist exposes his soul...and his mother's stuff This artist comes at his work from a very interesting place. I love readymades and in general, works that contain commercial products like the toothpaste tubes in the photo. The exhibit on the surface seems curious and somewhat whimsical like a Duchamp but from what the review says its far more intense. I'm looking forward to seeing it but at the same time I wonder if I will feel uncomfortable peering so deeply into his (and his mother's) life, soul, pain, etc...even though they've invited me to do so.

POPSBuddhist Neuropsychology: emotions and Awe Keltner is a professor at the University of California, Berkeley, and directs the Berkeley Social Interaction Laboratory. I haven't read this book but will aim to. The whole approach of Buddhist psychology and its accommodation with neuroscience is fascinating, a fascination shared by the Dalai Lama. Awe-inspiring stuff!

POPSFBI New Jersey Arrests Focus on Syrian Jewish Rabbis The article details this insulated and tightly regulated Syrian Jewish community, along with their financial enterprises, their interesting history and strict adherence to their religious leaders teachings: The Syrian Jewish communities in Brooklyn and Deal are known for their ability to flourish financially in the secular world , particularly in the garment and electronics industries, while retaining centuries-old religious customs and traditions .....The Syrian Jewish community is also noted for adherence to the absolute authority of its religious leaders , and nowhere is this more evident than in a 1935 ban by Syrian rabbis against intermarriage, including people who converted to Judaism ... The penalty imposed for marrying outside the faith or to a convert is severe: excommunication. One wonders if this was a Christian community with similar traits, how it would be portrayed in the mainstream media, particularly upon such arrests.
