Lost In The Light Bahamas Barchords 2012
Von der Bahamas Internetseite:
“Bahamas is the brain child of Afie Jurvanen, not exactly a band and not exactly a solo project. With a name like Afie Jurvanen you can quickly guess why a band name or moniker was needed. Nothing wrong with Afie’s name, but it sure doesn’t look as good in the music press as Bahamas.
Bahamas latest album is called Barchords and it just hit stores. The record is an intimate affair where the song and the singer are at the core. For a guy who knows how to rock (he’s been known to hang with Zeus) Afie also knows the importance of space and texture. Barchords has both in spades.
For this session Bahamas is made up of drummer Jason Tait of The Weakerthans fame with vocals by Carleigh Aikins and Felicity Williams and Afie on guitar and vocals.
For audio geeks there is something special in this session as well. Some old school Beatlesque panning. If you want to hear a solo Bahamas just mute the right speaker and you will hear only Afie and his guitar. If you like your Bahamas sans Afie (That would be strange, by the way) just mute the left speaker and you will hear Jason and the girls sans Afie.”

Wasser! Endlich wieder flüssig! Kälte und Trockenheit wie mit einem warmen Schwamm ausgeschwemmt … Die plötzlich und unerwartete Zartheit der wasser-gesättigten Luft, während der Schnee nur so ablebt, in die Fluten stürzt – alles rinnt und spült, alles trieft und spritzt, Oh Canada, I love your water. Ontario, ist ein Iroquais Wort für Schöner See, was den Lake Ontario bezeichnet … also Frühling mit der ersten große Schneeschmelze, plus 12 Grad und Sonne. Da komm’ die Handschuhe runter! Bislang keine Überschwemmungen, hier und da jedoch Feuerwehr-Fahrzeuge im Einsatz… soviel Wasser in der Luft und überall, was für ein grandioses Arrangement: Frühling. Ein Hoch auf Dein Versprechen!

Shake It Upside Down Steve Marriner Going Up 2007
from the cool you on facebook
Do not be so humble you forsake yourself and instead lavish praise on a President who is mostly worried about re-election, who has destroyed American civil liberties and waged wars on the poor at home, for oil abroad and on the climate everywhere since day one. It was the people who got there.
But even more important is that today we celebrate and tomorrow we struggle. We fight because now the even more pro oil administration of Canada will now try to destroy first nations land and oceans across British Columbia, sell the tar sands oil to China and California (people forget that this bitumen could be shipped there via tanker and get into Texas refineries anyhow) and this puts more economic pressure on making that disaster a set of dirty tricks to come. A system built on colonialism and sustained on an oil-fueled profit motive is the final target, the only target that we can win against and breathe easy for more than a day. This battle wins a little precious time, but makes our struggles elsewhere harder and more important than ever.
So celebrate tonight, fight harder tomorrow. It is all you can do– if we are serious and want to win, not little battles but the entire battles for the planet.
We can do it. We just must believe it. They said we could not win this one. They were wrong. They say we can’t shut down the tar sands. They are wrong.

And this is from Claude Johnson, an online guitar teacher, from his newsletter:
Hi Maren,
Wikipedia and other mega websites are doing a 24 hour blackout to protest SOPA. I’m gonna give you my thoughts on that in a second… But it ain’t gonna be pretty! If you really don’t care about my personal political opinions, then that’s great…
I don’t mind… Instead, check out this lesson from Derryl – its a sweet way to get started with shifting patterns:
VIDEO LESSON: SHIFTS
Enjoy the video lesson!
—–START OF SOPA RANT———-
SOPA… Where do I even begin…
Let me start by telling you that I do not think like most normal people, at least when it comes to politics. I was aware 20 years ago of the corrupt nature of government bureaucrats and trap of the 2 party system in America. I never voted for a republican OR democrat presidential candidate in my life. I’ve always voted Libertarian!
SOPA isn’t even really the issue. It’s just another in a long line of heavy-handed government solutions that do more harm than good. It threatens freedom of press and expression.
But, if you want to see real harm — look up the NDAA… It basically destroys our bill of rights as Americans. You can be dragged off in secret by the government, with no charges, and no trial… legally. This would have been unthinkable 20 years ago. “Not here in America” people would say.
Yet, through incremental chipping away at our freedoms, it happened. Obama signed it into law, quietly on New Years Eve.
This is outrageous!! Listen, I really, really DON’T like get political with my guitar newsletter. It’s not good for business.
But enough is enough… I’ve got to take a stand. If all sit in silence and fear… we fail.
All it takes for evil men to succeed is that good men do nothing.
At the risk of alienating you, I want to share a website that has opened my eyes to a lot of things… It’s one of the most controversial websites in the world. I’m not saying that I agree 100% with everything they publish. But, check it out, because I feel that they decode a lot of the mysteries of why the world is the way it is…
The site is: www.infowars.com
I think that by sharing this, its the most powerful thing I can do to take a stand for liberty. It’s about left vs. right, or dem vs repub.. It’s about us as a human race coming together for liberty. It’s about winning the information war to spread awareness of the truth to benefit all beings.

The former Minister for the Status of Women launches a 1.3 million dollar law suit against the Canadian Prime Minister Steven Harper, Labour Minister Lisa Raitt and more under allegations of conspiracy and defamation.
Way to go Helena Guergis.
31 pages on how Prime Minister Steven Harper, some assistants and entourage bullied the promising Minister for the Status of Women outta there. I’m getting the popcorn ready. Looks like a can of bad assets rebuttal. Just hoping the Crown’s gonna get a handle on the documentation before the Cons delete it all. They do seem to be able to press buttons …
I would wish some judicial consequences, for a head of government, but also for everybody else who was not hesitant to throw a lot of dirt on a public servant. Her reputation was trashed on accusations (delivered 2 Stevie from a bankrupt private investigator owing two million dollars in taxes who now testified he had no proof of wrongdoing whatsoever) that would have no public interest (where I would be willing 2 discuss the mind altering effects of cocaine) if this country was to apply some science on the law-making and governing. The only thing of public interest here is, what the federal Ethics Commissioner found.
Wikipedia states:
“On May 20, 2010 Federal Ethics Commissioner Mary Dawson fined Guergis $100 for failing to report details of a $800,000 mortgage liability within the 30 day time limit. Guergis had purchased the Ottawa house with her husband Rahim Jaffer in November 2009. Guergis said “I simply forgot and I accept responsibility for this oversight, I have already made arrangements to pay the fine — within the 30 days I was provided to do so.”[45][46]
In July 2011 Mary Dawson further found Guergis contravened 2 sections of the MP conflict of interest code by writing a letter of support for a company to a local municipal politician. Rahim Jaffer, Guergis’s husband was seeking lobbying business from the same company at the time.[47] >> (please see sources on Wikipedia page)
The lobbying commissioner ruled the pair violated the Lobbyists’ Code of Conduct. Check this article on iPolitics.ca for more info:
“In a 53-page report, Karen Shepherd found that even though Jaffer and Glémaud failed to obtain the $178 million in federal funding they were seeking, they should have registered as lobbyists. Shepherd ruled they also had to register even if they weren’t explicitly hired as lobbyists.
Shepherd investigated 10 allegations against Jaffer and Glémaud and concluded that five breached the lobbyists code.”
Oh and just btw, Jaffer’s company was developing a photovoltaic power plant for Brockville as well as a device called a BioDryer waste disposal system, a waterless garbage processor. Totally unrelated? You tell me.
And:
The RCMP (!) called in on Harper’s own request, cleared Helena Guergis of all the other charges. She was never sentenced or found guilty in any court of law. Her husband, Rahim Jaffer, pleaded guilty to careless driving, charges against him for drunk driving and cocaine possession did not hold up and were dropped as well.
Why did the gang around Harpo bully and publicly discredit her? Well, looking @ her style or some unfortunate, perfectly legal events in her entourage, she seems to have a tendency to rock the boat here and there, but Conservatives are not exactly known for any particular elegance around here.
Thinking about it, consider a renaming into the “Cowboy Party of Canada” – oil is civilization for us.
This I can only hold up while apologizing to all brave cattle herds out there with big shoulders and long … legs who are embarrassed that Harpo is also from Alberta.
What I find remarkable is, that Helena Guirgis was anything but on partyline in her political career, and seemed very dedicated to her constituents. Again I quote from Wikipedia
<< When running for provincial office in 2003 in the socially liberal riding of Trinity-Spadina, Guergis said that she would vote in favour of same-sex marriage if given the opportunity. Responding to a question on same-sex marriage at an all-candidates debate, she said, "I believe in the right to choose, so I would be voting in favour of it."[8]
Campaigning the following year in the socially conservative riding of Simcoe-Grey, Guergis said that she would vote against the federal government's proposed legalization of same-sex marriage. She argued that the majority of her constituents opposed the initiative, and that she was committed to supporting their views. Guergis did in fact vote against Bill C-38, which granted legal sanction to same-sex marriage, in 2005. In the same year, she tabled a private member's bill restricting MPs from crossing parties after their election.[9]
Guergis was re-elected with 49.8% of the vote in the 2006 election, substantially increasing her margin of victory as the Conservatives won a minority government nationally. On February 7, 2006, she was named by Prime Minister Stephen Harper as parliamentary secretary to David Emerson, the Minister of International Trade and the Minister for the Pacific Gateway and the Vancouver-Whistler Olympics.
Guergis's appointment was somewhat controversial, in that Emerson had crossed the floor from the Liberal Party on the same day that he received his cabinet position. One day prior to her appointment, Guergis informed the media that she would issue a press release indicating her continued support for anti-floor crossing legislation. The release never appeared.[10] >> (please see Wikipedia entry for sources)
Let me wage a guess: that was a little bit too grass roots for your taste?
Now we gonna see the tables turned. I doubt we will see all the evidence, but it will certainly be entertaining.
Wait, what was the word you campaigned on? right. ACCOUNTABILITY.
It’s comin’ your way, Mr. Prime Minister.
