POPSEx-Virginia Tech Student Speaks Out Against Texas GOP Bill to Legalize Firearms on Campus JOHN WOODS: Yes, you know, absolutely. And I TAed last semester, because I’m a graduate student, and I—we caught a student cheating, actually. And we knew he had been cheating. But he became almost violently angry when we told him that we’d seen him cheating. And, you know, our concern—we don’t really get paid enough for that kind of thing. We’re not paid enough to be security. If people are concerned about school safety, and I think that they should be in some cases, then they should hire more police or, you know, other means.

POPSGoogle’s Street View Takes Byte Out of Crime I can be just as impressed by technology as the next guy, but this fluff piece about Google’s Street View is more hype than it deserves. First of all, clearly the grandmother is an amateur ‘kidnapper’, a serious kidnapper would not have allowed the girls cell phone to remain on. Secondly, these guys could have called local police and given them the coordinates and they would have seen the motel, and so on. Even if it does illustrate one ‘good’ use of the technology it is doubtful this will become the future of crime fighting. I don’t fully understand why privacy watchdogs are concerned with this technology, using it doesn’t ‘reveal’ any more than what someone driving down the street can see. I am amazed that TechCrunch even gave coverage to this. News in the tech world is not this slow.

POPS1 in 5 young adults has personality disorder Counting substance abuse, the study found that nearly half of young people surveyed have some sort of psychiatric condition, including students and non-students. Personality disorders were the second most common problem behind drug or alcohol abuse as a single category. The disorders include obsessive, anti-social and paranoid behaviors that are not mere quirks but actually interfere with ordinary functioning. The study authors noted that recent tragedies such as fatal shootings at Northern Illinois University and Virginia Tech have raised awareness about the prevalence of mental illness on college campuses.

POPSVaTech, D.O.E, Russians, collaborators study rare microorganism that produces hydrogen So we finally found a clean energy solution ? guess not - no2liberals writes "I’m all for new sources of energy, but one has to look at the downside. The only emission from hydrogen as a fuel is water vapor, which happens to be the single greatest greenhouse gas. Do we really want vehicles and power plants spewing more of the gas that traps 80% of all radiant heat within the first thirty feet of atmosphere?"
