POPSMonsanto guilty in 'false ad' row Earlier this month, Monsanto reported a fourth quarter loss of $233m (£147m), driven mostly by a drop in sales of its Roundup brand. It would be quite a result if this led to some of their other products like Aspartame being investigated publicly.

POPSChina Smack Netizens Like Hummer Deal? Not So Much! Somewhere I found an art series on the "Bummer" but can't remember where now. Hummer has always been a strange deal. Every time I see one I laugh. It may be appropriate that a wannabe-famous Chinese firm bought the wannabe-taken-seriously-brand. Main reason for posting this is to introduce folks to China Smack, a strange and interesting look into the Chinese tech and monied class. A strange and bizarre mix of topics with comments by netizens after each story. Sort of like putting the National Enquirer, Fox News, CNN and NPR together in one place.

POPSDENTIST REVEALS TRUTH ABOUT FLUORIDE - GOVERNMENT LIES! Fluoride is a toxic poison put in our toothpaste and water purposely to dumb us down as a society and to make us ill. The Nazis used sodium fluoride in their concentration camps as it is a weapon against the brain and keeps people passive and obedient. The same is being done to us as a population by these maniacs in government so that we are docile and accept their tyranny. It is used as a method to control our behaviour.

POPSTobacco Underground
At a time when nations are increasingly trying to crack down on smoking, smugglers put cheap cigarettes into the hands of those most vulnerable — young people and the poor. In addition, the trade is pushing the supply steadily into the black market, selling cut-rate cigarettes of often dubious quality. Of special concern is the advent of a massive counterfeiting industry. Once a minor problem, today underground factories in China, Paraguay, and Eastern Europe manufacture literally billions of fake cigarettes — Marlboros, Camels, 555s, Mild Sevens — an uncontrolled industry that law enforcement is only beginning to grapple with. Many of the smokes are made from the lowest quality tobacco, full of stem and sawdust, and spiked with unusually high levels of nicotine. Other packs contain far worse. Tests reveal that counterfeit cigarettes carry a bevy of products that could further shorten even a heavy smoker’s life: metals such as cadmium, pesticides, arsenic, rat poison, and human feces.

POPSAn Interesting Take On Healthcare What do I have to fear from a public health plan? That they might charge me less or, heavens, that I might pay the same amount, and actually get coverage? Some might say the Corporate Government is more American, because I have the freedom to not buy it. Freedom to go bankrupt if my child gets sick in this bloated, parasitic health care system. Freedom, once I’m bankrupt, to go to the emergency room and foist the costs off on everyone else. Freedom, if I ever get out of bankruptcy again, to pay whatever skyrocketing price my insurance company might happen to be charging five years down the road. That’s the Corporate Government’s idea of freedom. In this modern age, where power abhors a vacuum, you’re always going to have one Government or the other. As your doctor might say, choose your poison.

POPSJury says chemotherapy drug death was "manslaughter" continued If you accidentally shoot your best friend in a hunting accident, you're held responsible (unless you're the U.S. Vice President, of course). If you have a swimming pool in your back yard, and a drunken neighbor drowns in your pool, you're also held responsible. But somehow, if you're a doctor or pharmacist, and you prescribe a fatal dose of toxic chemicals to a patient, you're off the hook! Doctors and pharmacists have been getting away with murder for so long that no one even remembers what it's like to hold them responsible for their actions. Let's face it: They're in the business of dealing poisons. And when you deal in poison, there needs to be a level of personal responsibility that's adhered to by working professionals. But instead of professionalism, what we're seeing in this case is the complete abandonment of any such notion. When the patient dies, they simply "lose the paperwork" to cover their tracks.

POPSWhatever happened to the principle that doctors must always save lives? Here doctors refused to take any action to save her life because they said she had drawn up a so called living will in which she had expressed the wish to die and claimed to be '100 per cent aware of the consequences.' It has been reported that, having taken legal advice, the consultant renal physician Dr Alexander Heaton took the view that she was mentally capable of reaching this decision and therefore he had to respect her wishes. He even told an inquest into Miss Wooltorton's death that he feared he might be charged with assault if he tried to intervene. The central principle of the Hippocratic Oath is 'do no harm'. I would argue that, by allowing a patient to commit suicide and taking no steps to prevent her death, a doctor has contravened that oath.

POPSMany Health Workers Won't Take Swine Flu Vaccine. Why? People can be scared to death and force to follow what rulers want include the suicide, as long as they believe that they are control of the decisions and experts and media knows about the truth. Unfortunately that is what is happening in india. People line up get the poison and die , instead they can simply survive by taking Vitamin C , vitamin D or sunlight and selenium

POPSSoda is the new tobacco. Another example of wise step by real leader and politician, who care about people and their health, not pockets of prospective campaign contributors. Any sugar is addictive, but corn starch with fructose in liquid form of syrup is something from the hell. And it is included in countless readily available cheap (and some of them not) foods, making them a weapon of mass destruction. Who entitled to guard us from this shameless brazen aggression if not elected popular leader? Ban this poison, our obesity - if only obesity, but that alone is more than enough - is direct outcome of this aggression.

POPSA Brief History of American Racism In 1882 President Arthur signed into federal law the Chinese Exclusion Act. Chinese immigrant labor was the infrastructure backbone of the 19th century California Gold Rush, but by the 1880s a significant economic downturn increased competition and turned up animosity. Fueled by scarcity-stoked fear, nativists pushed an anti-immigration agenda, culminating in the 1882 Act that excluded Chinese workers from entering the United States. In 1943 this act was repealed.
