Big morning for new releases: my list at 6:30 included Magnetic Fields, Scout Niblett, Four Tet, Eric Bibb, Bei Bei Shawn Lee, Soweto Gospel Choir, and we heard from Beach House and Retribution Gospel Choir. We also heard from Juliana Hatfield's forthcoming album, Peace Love. Nice thought.
This show is dedicated to the late Yabby You (born Vivian Jackson) who passed away suddenly on January 12, 2010.
Tried to give our ears some positive songs this morning: Karl Denson's new one Brother's Keeper, Sly the Family Stone You Can Make It If You Really Try, The Brass Kings When the Springtime Comes and the like. Also played songs from Teddy Pendergrass and Jay Reatard, as small thanks for sharing their creativity with the world. Both too young to have left us.
Verbal Graffiti Guest Mix by Katrah Quey. 'Goodbye 2009 Mix' Part 3. Mix from Soulution 'Love Life' to 100dbs 'Long Island + Jersey (Small Pro Remix)'.

Metis Rose: a portrait of Elder Rose Fleury (2012)
Dir: Marjorie Beaucage
Metis, Duck Lake, SK
48:28 minutes
like grandma used to say…
Elder Rose's 86 years of living are anchored in the core values she learned from her great grandmother who raised her. This video, in her own voice, is a pilgrimage into her own life as she puts things in order before she goes.
An exploration of her ancestral origins in Tourond's Coulee, where the Battle of Fish Creek occurred in 1885, led to her life's work of genealogy research. As she says, " I had to know…."
Raising 29 children (9 of her own and 20 foster children) without indoor plumbing is a feat in itself! Through all this, Rose worked for the Métis all her life and was part of creating the first Métis local and involved in numerous women's organizations to better the lives of the Métis people. As an Elder, she continues her work with schools and communities across the land, leaving her legacy.
Sit and have tea with Rose as she reflects on her life

Guerrilla filmed on-location in Vancouver's notorious downtown eastside, and deep in the back woods of the boreal forest in northern Alberta. *In Cree w/ english subtitles

The Holden VP Commodore is an automobile which was produced by Australian automaker Holden from 1991 to 1993. It is the seventh generation Holden Commodore.
The VP Commodore was released in September 1991 with mainly cosmetic and feature changes to the outgoing VN Series Commodore. The 3.8 litre V6 and 5.0 litre V8 engines from the VN were carried over, but the V6 engine received various revisions that improved its refinement and noise characteristics as well as boosting power by two kilowatts. The 2.0 litre straight-4 engine which had been offered on the VN in certain export markets was discontinued. Semi-trailing arm IRS became standard on Calais and Commodore SS models and became an optional extra on lower-end models. This new suspension drastically improving ride and handling over that offered by the live rear axle. ABS brakes were also introduced in the VP range as an option on Series 1 Calais and Commodore SS models, and on most models with IRS for Series II versions. Additional security features were introduced across the range, including an ignition-disabling device and a driver's door deadlock.
The VP Calais was also sold in Thailand, with 3.8 V6 version, later it used an Opel 2.6-litre inline-six Dual Ram engine.

Specification levels[edit]
Commodore Executive[edit]
The Commodore Executive was the base model of the VP Commodore range.
Commodore S[edit]
The Commodore S was the cheapest sports variant of the VP Commodore range. It was essentially similar to the Executive, but with sports trim similar to the SS model.
Commodore SS[edit]
The Commodore SS was the top of the line sports model of the VP Commodore range.
Commodore Berlina[edit]
The Commodore Berlina was the cheapest luxury variant of the VP Commodore range.
Commodore Berlina LX[edit]
The Commodore Berlina LX was the semi-luxury version of the VP Commodore range. This model was essentially a stepping stone between the Berlina and Calais.
The Calais was the luxury version of the VP Commodore range. It was however not badged or marketed as a Commodore.
Limited edition and other specification levels[edit]
Commodore SS V6[edit]
The SS V6 was a 1992 limited production model which had all the features of the regular Commodore SS but utilized the 3.8L V6 engine in place of the 5.0L V8. It was produced to homologate a suitable model for the Group 3E Series Production Cars motor racing category, which required a small minimum run of cars to be built. The SS V6's main rival was the Ford EB2 Falcon XR6.
Commodore BT1[edit]
The Commodore BT1, or the Police Pack was a special pack for the VP Commodore that was available to the Australian and New Zealand Police Forces. It was based on the Commodore Executive and added various specification upgrades to cater to the needs of the Police Force. Many believe that BT1 Commodores had a "cop chip" which increased the engine power output, however this is a myth, as the engine power is the same as in regular VP Commodores.
Although the pack varied in each state, they were commonly fitted with:
- FE2 sports suspension
- Oil sump protector
- always-on top lighted speedo (inside the cluster in front of the speedo for "headlights off" speed checks when following speedsters) with 2 km increments (as per Berlina/Calais)
- dome light and map light interior lighting
- 15" X 7" Steel wheels (sometimes called "chaser", "pursuit" or "interceptor" rims)
- Transmission Cooler
- country pack suspension
- vinyl floor mats
- limited slip differential
Commodore Vacationer[edit]
The Commodore Vacationer was a limited edition model based on the Commodore Executive. The VP Commodore Vacationer was released in October 1992.
Calais International[edit]
The Calais International was a limited edition model based on the VP Calais and released in September 1992. A total of 300 were built, 150 in Alaskan White and the same number in Anthracite Grey. All were equipped with the V8 engine and automatic transmission and the exterior featured Commodore SS lower kit (with fog lights) and a Holden VQ Caprice bootlip as well as unique International badges. The paint was single colour, unlike the standard Calais which had a grey lower half. Standard wheels were the 15in alloys from the VQ Statesman but with Holden logo's in the center cap and the interior was black over tan, with tan partial leather/suede seats, and special leather SS style steering wheel.
Holden VP Ute[edit]
A coupe utility variant of the VP Commodore was also produced. It was marketed as the Holden Ute and was not badged as a Commodore.
Toyota Lexcen (T2)[edit]
A badge engineered variant of the Holden VP was marketed by Toyota as the Toyota Lexcen.[1] The T2 series Lexcen was available in CSi, VXi, and Newport trim levels,[1] with a choice of sedan and wagon body styles.[2] It was offered only with the 3.8 litre V6 engine and the four speed automatic transmission, the V8 not being available in the Lexcen.[2]
HSV (VP)[edit]
Holden's performance car partner Holden Special Vehicles produced a number of models based on the VP Commodore and sold under the HSV brand. These included the HSV GTS.[3]
The VP series HSV Clubsport was launched in 1991 with the same 180 kW (245 PS; 241 hp) V8 used in the VN Clubsport. A special edition was launched for both the Senator and Clubsport called the 5000i.
120 produced
The VP series Maloo utility was released in March 1992. Only 49 examples were made in the thirteen months of production, of which 15 were special HSV Fifth Anniversary Edition models, and the final eight were All-Black limited editions. These exclusive build quantities confirm the VP series to be the least production numbers Maloo ute of all.[4]
Introduced 1991 when the VN series was replaced with the VP generation. The year after that the Senator was introduced, based on the VP Commodore. The Senator was created in an attempt to design a vehicle that offered both luxury and performance as well as to complement the existing long-wheelbase Statesman models. Offering smoother styling compared to the HSV Clubsport and GTS models, which favoured performance rather than luxury, the Senator took advantage of the independent rear suspension which was offered on high priced VP Commodores and Statesmans at the time and was only one of a handful of Commodore-based cars that had automatic climate control air conditioning. Other features included a leather interior, cruise control and limited slip differential. A three spoke steering wheel was featured. Top speed was 220 km/h (137 mph). The car is available with HSV's 180 kW (241 hp) 5.0 litre V8 engine coupled to a GM 4-speed automatic transmission or 5-speed manual. There was actually two versions built the standard Senator and the Senator 5000i which featured a more powerful engine. The total number built for both versions was 382.[5]

Being completely honest here, I really didn't expect a whole lot out of this.

In a year that has see a foundational piece of AC/DC succumb to a debilitating illness and another to his own personal insanity, AC/DC emerges after seemingly forever away with ROCK OR BUST. To be fair and truthfully honest, expectations on this release were pretty low. I know that AC/DC is a band that's been in business almost 50… Read More
David Coverdale and company have had a very long and successful history that started even before he formed Whitesnake. There's no denying the legacy here. Coverdale has had a fantastic career with Whitesnake, and his time in Deep Purple was every bit as strong to that band as a Sammy Hagar was to Van Halen… Read More
There's an unwritten rule that I rarely follow here in Cleveland. That rule is that if a band is from Cleveland, I'm supposed to write all glowing things or else be called a hater by the local community. It's sad that it's like that, but the truth is what it is. For years I've lived with that stigma, to the point… Read More
Machine Head
What happened to Machine Head really is a crime. Unfortunately for them, it's a crime they perpetrated upon themselves. With a mistake so many made in their youth, this band singlehandedly torpedoed themselves from ascending to the heights in metal held by only the select few like Metallica and Megadeth before them.

Sammy Hagar
I get it. You are Sammy Hagar. You've seen huge success in virtually every world you've entered. In music, he was the main focus of Montrose. He parlayed that into a very successful solo career. That wasn't enough, so he joined the world's largest band at the time (Van Halen), and took them to commercial heights that even they… Read More
Cavalera Conspiracy
There's always good news and bad news whenever Max Cavalera gets busy with new music. The good is that you get a whole lot of new music, seemingly all in a very short time. The bad news is it's generally spotty at best, because he simply writes and releases too much music at the same time. His band Soulfly released… Read More
I'm sure Manowar had to make this album. I'm sure the Magic Circle of Manowarriors expected it. Just like Kiss keeps putting out records that pander to the "character" the band created, so too does Manowar need to create a record steeped in the tricks and turns of its back catalog.
That's the only reason I can gather that guys looking at 60 are still compelled to write material like this.
To my ears, the band sounds a bit like a middling Scandinavian power metal band bashing out NWOBHM-styled tunes. In theory, that would be great for me, but the band keeps trotting out the same tired ideas, the same riffs, the same choruses, the same Valhalla battles fought over and over since 1982's Battle Hymns.
While I'm sure the die-hards are going crazy for this, there's just a couple of things that work against it in terms of listenablity. The triggered bass drums are a bit awkward for a band that made its name on 'rawness'. The lyrics more often than not flirt with hokey. But the biggest issue I have is the absolutely unpleasant bass tone of Joey DiMaio. Big deal, he plays a specialty piccolo bass, it's buzzy and awkward. Sounds like shit!
Eric Adams hasn't lost any power over the years, and really is the only positive here. I think the most compelling thing about his style is the way he channels his influences. Most singers have a direct lineage to a few masters, the usual suspects...Halford, Dio, Tate, Dickinson, Plant. Eric alwys came across to me as a direct product of Ozzy and Gillan.
The fans are probably thrilled to death with this release, and that's who it's aimed at, for this is no entry level opening for new ears. For a point of reference, go back and check out Hail to England or the aforementioned Battle Hymns.
PITRIFF RATING - 55/100 - I'd probably like to bash on this record, but I'm sure it fit the prescription for exactly what their crowd wants and expects. I've heard this record before by them, and done better. And, what do you know, another Manowar title with "of" in the title!

Unleash the ugly
Saatchi's outspoken CEO Kevin Roberts tells Austyn Allison from Communicate that the time for analysis is over. Advertising is going to get ugly.
July 22, 2009 8:01 by Austyn Allison
Saatchi & Saatchi global CEO Kevin Roberts was back in town recently to check up on the new regional management at the agency. A year after he created controversy across the Middle East by calling the region's creative output "awful," and the quality of work "crap," Roberts' agency is hoping to reinvent itself with a restructure.
Saatchi Dubai has lost CEO Steve Anastasiadis and chief creative director Ed Jones. It now has a new regional CEO in Elias Ashkar, who will oversee all Saatchi offices in the region. Like Roberts, Ashkar worked at Procter & Gamble and Pepsi, and the two are old friends. Danny Higgins is the new regional chief creative director, and Joseph Atallah has become the agency's first regional chief strategic officer.
We sidestepped (most) management issues, though, and began by asking Roberts whether he had revised his opinion of the region's advertising industry since the start of last summer.
When you were here last year, you said creativity in the Middle East hasn't moved much beyond the Eighties. How does it look now?
I think the Lynx was very close to a mortal blow for creativity in this region, and if we have escaped by the skin of our teeth, major action needs to be taken and I would not be giving the agency [FP7 Doha] a pass. I understand that Lynx has said all is forgiven, take action internally and come back next year. I would have red-carded them, not yellow-carded them.
It is corruption. I found it unethical, corrupt, inexcusable, unjustifiable, and shameful. I think of great agencies like Leo Burnett here in the Middle East (who I know really well), and to see them compete in the show and be swamped by this kind of thing, I find really distasteful. It's criminal really. The punishment for this should be much stronger than it has been so far.

Traditionally, one of the first signs of spring is the sight of blooming flowers and buds, but the first day of spring this year brought something special: the blossoming of a promising new road safety partnership among DOT, the International Chiefs of Police Association, and state police and highway patrol officers from more than 40 states.
The Drive To Save Lives is a united effort to reduce highway fatalities by 15 percent in 2014. DOT is proud to join the IACP and law enforcement across the country in this education, awareness, and high-visibility traffic enforcement initiative to change high-risk behaviors that --all too often-- lead to crashes...
The moment we've all been waiting for is upon us. Winter is finally going away, the days are getting longer, and soon, we hope, they will be warmer. That means more time outside reviving the lawn and giving our gardens the love they need to spring up in style.
It also means that many of the personal and commercial construction projects on hold during the winter chill will now resume.
These are activities worth getting excited about, but when it comes to digging, we need to temper our enthusiasm with a does of safety sense: Excavation damage remains a leading cause of serious pipeline incidents...
Cross-posted from www.whitehouse.gov
A couple of months ago, my nine-year-old daughter came into my office with a list of priorities, things she would do if she had my job as Secretary of Transportation. (Her first priority, by the way, was to move every seat on the plane into first-class.)
Besides being one of those moments that every father wants to have on videotape, it was also a small reminder of what we know at the U.S. Department of Transportation: that there are many young girls who dream of a job in transportation – of learning to fly, for instance, or of becoming an engineer who designs a magnificent bridge.
Supporting these dreams isn't something we should just do as parents; it's something we should do as a nation.
After one of the colder, snowier winters in recent memory, spring is no longer just around the corner. Today, it has officially arrived.
The signs are everywhere: March Madness, spring training, school vacations. Gardening enthusiasts are laying the groundwork for planting. Winter's debris is being raked from lawns. And in the transportation business, more and more Warm Mix Asphalt (WMA) is being produced and placed as road work gets underway around the country...
Today, the Department of Justice charged Toyota with defrauding consumers by issuing misleading statements about two safety issues that caused unintended acceleration in some of its vehicles. At the same time, the Department of Justice announced a deferred prosecution agreement with the automaker, under which the company admits that it misled U.S. consumers and pays a $1.2 billion penalty. DOT worked closely with the Department of Justice to help achieve this outcome.
As U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder said, "When car owners get behind the wheel, they have a right to expect that their vehicle is safe. If any part of the automobile turns out to have safety issues, the car company has a duty to be upfront about them, to fix them quickly, and to immediately tell the truth about the problem and its scope. Toyota violated that basic compact."
I couldn't agree more. And I echo the Attorney General's message that, "Other car companies should not repeat Toyota's mistake."
The entire U.S.Merchant Marine Academy community is proud of our rich history of service. Since the Academy was established in 1943, Kings Point alumni have served in every overseas conflict and have assisted communities here at home during crises and natural disasters like the 9/11 terrorist attacks and Hurricane Sandy.
This month, that proud traditions continues as CPT David Taliaferro (USMMA '07) leads 130 soldiers of the New York Army National Guard's 133rd Quartermaster Company during their mobilization and deployment to Afghanistan in support of Operation Enduring Freedom...
Last week, I had a chance to visit with the National Congress of American Indians to talk about President Obama's transportation budget proposal and what it means for our tribal lands. And the news was very good.
We all know that transportation isn't just about how we get from one point to another – it's, what President Obama likes to call, a ladder of opportunity.
This is especially true in Indian Country, where a rebuilt road or a new transit system can make the difference in a child getting to school, a father getting to work, or a tribal elder getting to the doctor...
It's no secret that tax-related filings create a lot of paperwork, but do you know the second biggest paperwork burden from federal regulations?
If you said, "hours-of-service recordkeeping for interstate truck and bus drivers," then you are correct. But not for long, thanks to a proposed rulemaking from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration.
Last week, FMCSA proposed a rule requiring interstate commercial truck and bus companies to use Electronic Logging Devices (ELDs) in their vehicles. ELDs record a driver's record of service behind the wheel to improve compliance with the safety rules that govern the number of hours a driver can work. The new rule will improve the quality of hours-of-service data and help reduce crashes by fatigued drivers, preventing approximately 20 fatalities and 434 injuries each year for an annual safety benefit of $394.8 million...
In mid-December 2013--after four high-profile accidents in six months on the Metro-North commuter railroad--the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) launched Operation Deep Dive, a comprehensive, 60-day safety investigation of Metro-North. Today, we're releasing the results of that detailed review in a report to Congress.
The report indicates that "Metro-North's management emphasizes on-time performance to the detriment of safe operations and adequate maintenance of its infrastructure, resulting in a deficient safety culture, increased risk and reduced safety on the Metro-North system."

When President Obama and Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx announced funding availability for DOT's 2014 TIGER grants a couple of weeks ago, transportation advocates got pretty excited.
And for all those who asked, "What's a TIGER grant?" the city of Indianapolis has a great answer: DOT's Transportation Investment Generating Economic Recovery program fills in a critical funding gap and allows communities to pursue projects that offer a wide range of benefits.
What did Indy do with its $20.5 million 2009 TIGER award? It leveraged it into a $62.5 million mix of public and private funding and created an 8-mile bicycle and pedestrian trail that the New York Times called, "an accessible urban connective tissue."

NY Times Visualizes Statue Of Liberty Covered By The Seas From Hotcoldwetdry
I was really hoping this piece of science fiction, er, opinion piece was offered by the whole editorial board, alas, it's by some guy named James Atlas, who's crazy op-ed piece is part of a raft of crazy pieces at the times, such as Rising Seas, Vanishing Coastlines, What Could Disappear, Paying for Future Catastrophes, and
No, but it might make for some side splitting reading.
WE'D seen it before: the Piazza San Marco in Venice submerged by the acqua alta; New Orleans underwater in the aftermath of Katrina; the wreckage-strewn beaches of Indonesia left behind by the tsunami of 2004. We just hadn't seen it here. (Last summer's Hurricane Irene did a lot of damage on the East Coast, but New York City was spared the worst.) "Fear death by water," T. S. Eliot intoned in "The Waste Land." We do now.
Venice is located in a swampy, waterlogged area of many islands, which has been subsiding for a long, long time. Those parts of New Orleans were already below sea level. The Indonesian tsunami had nothing to do with globull warming.
There had been warnings. In 2009, the New York City Panel on Climate Change issued a prophetic report. "In the coming decades, our coastal city will most likely face more rapidly rising sea levels and warmer temperatures, as well as potentially more droughts and floods, which will all have impacts on New York City's critical infrastructure," said William Solecki, a geographer at Hunter College and a member of the panel. But what good are warnings? Intelligence agents received advance word that terrorists were hoping to hijack commercial jets. Who listened? (Not George W. Bush.) If we can't imagine our own deaths, as Freud insisted, how can we be expected to imagine the death of a city?
Ugh, another Truther. Who would have been livid had George Bush put troops in the airports for months, if not years. There had been warnings for years that Bin Laden was determined to strike the US with commercial planes…..oh, moving on from utter left wing rantings of moonbattery…
YET we return home from our travels intoxicated by beauty, not truth. It doesn't occur to us that we, too, will one day be described in a guidebook (Fodor's North America 2212?) as metropolitans who resided in 60-story towers and traveled beneath the waves in metal-sheathed trains.
I told you this was funny. I think I read that book a few months ago. It was called Shadows Live Under Seashells by Allan J Ashinoff, which included those trains traveling around a floating city.
It's this willed ignorance, I suspect, that explains why it's difficult to process the implications of climate change for New York, even in the face of explicit warnings from politicians, not the most future-oriented people.
To quote Instapundit: "As I said before, I'll believe it's a crisis when the people who keep telling me it's a crisis start acting like it's a crisis." You Climate Terrorists, er, Warmists, have been spreading awareness for well over 20 years, yet you rarely act on your beliefs within your own lives.
Here's the kicker
The statue of liberty is 305 feet, 1 inch from the base of the pedestal to the torch. Add a couple feet of height for the island itself. And the rising of the seas is well within the historical norm for the last 7,000 years (when the massive sea height increase from the end of the last glacial period slowed). But, hey, don't let reality get in the way. Let's scare people!

Make no mistake, this is NOT the Mickey Mouse club, and Barney is Banned. Baby loves disco is an afternoon dance party featuring real music spun and mixed by real djs blending classic disco tunes From the 70s, & 80s guaranteed to get those little booties moving and grooving.
Baby Loves Disco tickets are hot hot hot. Whitney and I hit the clubs in San Francisco last fall and loved it! What better excuse for a pregnant woman to rock out in a swanky night club munching on cheese sticks and dodging day-glow hula hoops? There is none.
Local readers: BLD is in Pleasanton this weekend! It's time to rock the East Bay. Details here at SVMomsBlog.

Wired: Antipiracy Ad Debuts on Grammys
"The television ad, to debut during Sunday night's Grammy broadcast, depicts a teenager downloading a song from the Internet while a crowd dances inside a nightclub.
When the teen completes transferring the song file to her computer, the music and the lights at the club suddenly turn off, leaving clubgoers confused over who pulled the plug on their fun. The ad closes on the Web address for the organization's information site."

This strategy is doomed. Instead of laying a guilt trip on the world, 99% of whom couldn't give a monkey about the RIAA or the overpayed divas who profit from their price fixing they should deveote their energy to creating one online market place for music in Europe.
We still don't have one which isn't exclusively mp3. Pathetic.

Exclusively wma I should have said.

How much will it cost us to put together a "lower your freakin' prices" commercial?
Posted by Daddo on February 9, 2004 at 6:57 AM (CST)
Reletively cheap if everyone would donate I'm sure.

let's all feel sorry for the obviously overworked and underpaid musicians of our day.

What I think is funny is that the commercial shows a bunch of people dancing in the club to prerecorded music. However, if you look at the FAQ on whatsthedownload.com, it says:
"When we buy CDs, we do not own the copyrights to that music just because we purchased the album or single. When we purchase music, we only own the right to the particular copy that we acquired (i.e., we do not automatically have the right to make copies of the CD or to perform the CD in public places such as in a bar, retail store, dance club, etc.)."
Seems like a bit of a contradiction to the ad, since the music seems to be played in a bar, or a dance club, or ... you get the point.

!k7's approach is better: http://www.k7.com/news.pl?id=56
i can't say anything that hasn't already been said a million times before. BUT the riaa has been taking the wrong approach. it will be their swan song. i'm not a top business exec but it's a no brainer that you shouldn't criminalize your consumer base.
remember when music was allowed to be fun? god that commerical makes me feel like i can't listen to have music and have fun.
as lame as the itunes/pepsi commercial is.. it's a million times better than that garbage.

That ad was so stupid.
Ok,I'll stop downloading (I have but for the sake of argument lets say I still do) when Britney starts to actually sing at her $90 a seat concerts.
I'll stop when albums stop being glorified singles with 2 good songs and 10 'b-sides'
I'll stop when a cd costs what it should,which is about 10 bucks. How and why people still pay 17.99 for a cd at Sam Goody is beyond me. Even the 14.99 Walmart charges for a non-sale cd is too much.
I'll stop when artists and lables make all music available to itunes and the like.
It'sa joke how some people will only let you download full albums and others won't even make any of thier catelog available.
Yes…people who download music from p2p are theives…but so is the RIAA.

No, they have got it all wrong, it is the lights and computers at the RIAA offices that should be turning off!!!

That was one of the most inane,ill-conceived,and incredibly disengenuous commercials ever. And Neil Portnow's statements were pretty offensive,too. Furthermore,I found it really interesting that they chose to use "Dance Music" as the backround. Why on earth would you choose to use a genre a music,that the majors are notoriously guilty of never releasing commercially? I wound up having to resort to "alternate"methods in order to find the stuff that I can't purchase otherwise.I mean,come the f@*k on…
