Good evening ladies and gentlemen, welcome to SDA Late Nite Radio. Tonight, for your delectation and pursuant to our Tuesday night vintage music show, here are Billy Cotton and his band performing Two Hearts on a Tree (1934, 3:00).
Your Reader Tips are, as always, welcome in the comments.
The Billy Cotton was superb! I’m familiar with a lot of British popular music from long ago, but I’d never heard of Billy.
Thanks so much, Vitruvius. I’m going to look for more of Billy’s music.
Interesting stuff.Not exactly my cup of tea,but you can’t please everyone everytime. Anyways,I just watched a puff piece on ctv,where an 83 year-old man was ticketed for using his dead wife’s handicapped permit to park in the handicapped spot.The bad cops gave him a ticket for $438 for the offence. The clip was sympathetic to the ‘perp’,painting the police as hard-line oppressors. Like c’mon,he is 83,he should be allowed to frauduently use his dead wife’s permit to take the spot,even though he moved around pretty good for an old guy. I think that he deserved the ticket.He says that he should have just got a warning,because he is old. If you disagree,could you please let me know why,and at what age that it is ok to steal those spots? I am thinking that 52 is about the right cut-off point. I could be wrong though,it has happened before.
Peace brother!!(or sister.) On a scale of 1-10, Billy Cotton is a 9. So are you!! Sorry if I got out of hand!!
This one brings me back to my old alma matter and days of youth. Rather than a fancy college, my alma was military boot camp, but there are many similarities, happy camaraderie.

wallyj
he can appeal the decision simply he can reduce the amount or may bring doctore notes to able him to use the spot if he is too old to walk
above 68 years old the driver need to test thier driving test and also driving vison and also driving maturity because old people are act like child recently most shop put sign for mother and infents new spot for parking close to door and old people not able to walk long from big parking place to store
if they guy used to use spot share with his wife not he grow more than may be 20 years not walk long to the stor if his wife died then he can not go and walk more then he is entitle by consider his age to use the spot in that agae
most elder people need to have close like disablity parking
but in fairness we can give level
level- 1 disable people
level -2 old people parking space
livel -3 young mom with infants cary stolers
level -4 family of 5 smal kid
I may went too much to it in above said
but this is unfiar to give old man $430 they are not get old age pension so much money to pay so much ticker money probaly he an apply and appeal the ticker in higher court within 30 days and explain his ground and without pay the ticket he can ask for extend the time wihtout paying he fine to go to trial and in most case judge let them without pay go to appeal and he can ask to reduce it to may up to $50 or may little more
he has 30 days to appela the court fine if he missed the 30 days he must ask extend for appela they will let him still open the case and appeal again
when he want to go to court of appeal he must bring documents to get dismissed or reduce his fine and explain in short his reason for ground for his appeal
I believe this is unfair ask 85 years man to pay $400 find for ticket or may be he can bring doctore notes able him to use the spot still
always for elderly peope above 67 yeas old need to get reduce this people who know may have days ormonth or few years to live let them live in peace and happy do not bother old man
Anybody watch “The National” tonight? Dear old Mothercorp rebroadcast a months old propaganda piece about the Australian drought which they originally aired before the drought broke. All caused by global warming er… climate change of course. Not a word was said about the phony timing. Rotten bastards.
Apart from remembering having seen the blurb before, I couldn’t help thinking that the hardships portrayed were like a gentle walk in the park compared to the “dirty thirties” in rural Sask, Alberta and the American dustbowl.

A friend sent this interesting bit of news my way. She knows here stuff too.
From The Star today:
Yet another report, this one from low-income people themselves, has blasted the federal government for failing to do enough to provide affordable housing in this country.
ACORN, the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, gave the federal government an F in all four housing measures it analyzed in its report, released last week.
They include: meeting its promises to the provinces; not committing to renewal of the three existing federal programs that include a homelessness strategy; and failing to adopt a national housing strategy.
The report also calls on the government to appoint a federal minister responsible for housing with a wide-ranging mandate.
It’s the first report from the association, made up of 15,000 low-income families in Toronto, Vancouver and Montreal, and it’s driven by what it sees as an ongoing crisis in affordable housing.
Sounds like a really nice little concerned group of people, this ACORN group, right:
Please read here http://www.realclearpolitics.com/cross_tabs/2008/07/the_truth_about_acorn.html
And here
http://www.ajc.com/opinion/content/opinion/stories/2008/07/15/votinged.html
And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Don’t let this group get anymore of a toehold there. They are far left, unscrupulous, and downright scum!
Ralph Klein on Global Warming:
“First thing I say,is get rid of all the humans-because we all exhale CO2”
“Very little is being reported..about the steps being taken by oil companies to address the environmental concerns.The heads of oil companies are very,very bright people.Collectively,they have a lot more brains than Al Gore.they are trying to find solutions.”
Ralph was speaking at Surrey BC Board of Trade luncheon….thinks Campbell should axe carbon tax.
Atta boy Ralph!
Part of the reason our incomes have been stagnating over the past three decades is that government has funded activist groups like ACORN, thus allowing a large number of people to have an income without producing anything of value. Cutting them all off should be a top priority of any genuine conservative government.

Frederick W. Kagan, Kimberly Kagan and Jack Keane, The New Reality in Iraq
The blunt fact is this. In Iraq, al Qaeda is on the ropes, and the Shiite militias are badly off-balance. Now is exactly the time to continue the pressure to keep them from regaining their equilibrium. It need not, and probably will not, require large numbers of American casualties to keep this pressure on. But it will require a considerable number of American troops through 2009.
Recent suggestions in Washington that reductions could begin sooner or proceed more rapidly are premature. The current force levels will be needed through the Iraqi provincial elections later this year, and consideration of force reductions makes sense only after those elections are over and the incoming commander in Iraq, Gen. Ray Odierno, has evaluated the new situation…
Simon Henderson and Jasmine El-Gamal, Saudi Arabia: Interfaith Talks Abroad, Intolerance at Home
This week, Saudi Arabia is organizing a global interfaith conference in Madrid, with more than 200 Muslim, Christian, Jewish, Hindu, and Buddhist religious leaders from 54 countries expected to attend. The conference, in the words of its main organizer, the Mecca-based Muslim World League, will “focus on common human values.” Many in the West, however, will likely judge the conference as a Saudi public relations effort to emphasize its leadership of the Islamic world, and to ward off criticism, especially from the United States, that Saudi Arabia bears continuing responsibility for political and financial backing of Sunni extremists across the Middle East…
Michael J. Totten, Is the War Over?
Independent reporter Michael Yon has spent more time in Iraq embedded with combat soldiers than any other journalist in the world, and a few days ago he boldly declared the war over…I’m reluctant to say “the war has ended,” as he did, but everything else he wrote is undoubtedly true. The war in Iraq is all but over right now, and it will be officially over if the current trends in violence continue their downward slide. That is a mathematical fact.
If you doubt it, look at the data.

Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbons: tireless supporters of the downtrodden. Unless the dirty peasants come close enough to their majesty’s home to polute the place with their presence…

TIM Robbins’ and Susan Sarandon’s mission to protect the poor and needy doesn’t apply to their Greenwich Village neighborhood. The Oscar-winning liberals recently attended a Landmarks Preservation Commission hearing to oppose St. Vincent’s plea to build a new, larger hospital on West 12th Street, three blocks from their home. This despite their support of causes like UNICEF and Champions for Children. “The hospital provides $40 million in care to the indigent every year,” one proponent told us. “Robbins dismissed more than 100 people rallying in support of the hospital – low-income, union workers and veterans of the AIDS crisis – as ‘those people out there.’ ”

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/africaandindianocean/2303326/African-leaders-revel-in-largesse-while-people-live-in-poverty.html
Private jets, Bugatti cars, a shark-filled aquarium and enough bank accounts to paper the new luxury yacht – the extraordinary capacity of some African leaders and their families for apparent self-enrichment has been laid bare in a French lawsuit over allegedly stolen state money.
Following an inquiry last year by the French fraud body OCRGDF, an anti-corruption campaign group has accused a string of African politicians of plundering vast sums from the often struggling economies of their countries.
Inhabitants of Gabon or the Republic of Congo who have ever wondered what happens to their precious oil and mining revenues don’t need to look any further than Paris and the French Riviera.
The richest parts of France are teeming with homes, cars, boats and other expensive baubles belonging – in practice, at least – to tropical Africa’s political elite.

“Dwayne Maracle was released yesterday on a $1,000 surety, and is required to maintain a particular residence and keep the peace. He can return to the development site where he was protesting.
Maracle’s lawyer Sarah Dover told Brantford court Maracle is subject to indigenous law, which she said, “Requires him, especially as a man, to be a protector of the land… To be peaceful… To be respectful.”
Wow. Revisionism right into the law itself, which apparently for Indians, doesn’t mean equal voting rights, equality of treatment before band councils, or even equality in front of ‘whitey’s law’.
Nice stuff if you can get it. And hey, how many SDA readers out there honestly believe you or I would get bail and return to a protest site after being charged with assaulting a police officer?
Thought so. Prentice’s failed years in the Indian Industry keep on giving, as does Strahl’s silence. And the millions of dollars keep on flowing to party-connected lawyers and hacks who get to negotiate for the next 54 payments left on their cottages. Bend over taxpayer, this ‘conservative’ government screws you in the wallet, and ideology.
