Definitely an appropriate pick this evening.--- The Canadian man who shot two men in the back of the head so he could steal their car has filed suit in Montana,because the execution chamber is not up to his rather stringent standards.---The Smith lawsuit argues that the trailer is "small and crowded," and isn't adequately equipped with the technology required to deal with problems that could arise during an execution and cause "unnecessary pain and suffering" for the prisoner.--- I think he has also requested a tomb with a view. http://www.ottawacitizen.com/life/death+chamber+shut+Canadian+lawsuit/2458700/story.html

A week after the Haiti earthquake, news footage shows several of them smoking cigarettes and using cellphones. Where and how are they recharging their phones? Where do they get smokes? Weird

Tonight's musical pick could also be appropriate for the election upset in Boston, Mass.

Oh Gee Whizz,guess what?

Turns out that POS Mohamed Harkat really was(is?) a stinking,smelly Saracen terrorist.

ATTENTION CANADIAN GOVERNMENT: Get him out of our country!!!!!!!
No citizenship for him.

And tell him to take his idiot,85 I.Q.,traitorous Canadian wife number one with him.

Another story you won't read about in our papers.

"No thank you, we'd rather seek asylum in Miami or Montreal and live off them. There hasn't been arable land in Haiti for so long we forgot how to work it."

kdl @ 11:14

it's the gangster to gangster network at work. When there is fast buck to be made eg a boatload of cigarettes, some up and coming wiseguy will do whatever it takes to prove to his boss he's "a good earner". No such ambition and fast promotion among the NGO crowd. Among the local authorities no one moves until it is decided who will give the biggest kickbacks from the contract (the negotiations do take time).

>>Where do they get smokes?
Probably not tobacco. Maybe goat droppings rolled in scrap paper.

Great story! Send them to Senegal immediatly!!! They have even been offered thier own region paid for by the government (well and our hidden IMF and world bank tax's of course).

Who cares there hasn't been an opportunity like this since Lincoln or the formation of Liberia!

It is easy to see that some people commenting here have veered into the anti smoking WHO fanatical mindset. Smoking tobacco is not illegal and further it helps people handle stress (without flopping around and screaming) and it is a painkiller. You, personally may not like tobacco smoke but you have never faced what the people in Haiti are facing - when you see death everywhere, suddenly your lungs and second hand smoke are not as important as maintaining some sanity. Why do you think soldiers in combat smoke?

As for the cell phones - they probably carry them around with them just like people here do...I would expect better from Canadians...it is so easy to pick out small PC things...do you think that smoking as a POW's RIGHT (written in the Geneva convention) should be ruled out by PC? Do you begrudge a dying man a smoke? Haiti is not your PC bar and grill in Canada, it is a hell hole of death and chaos; concentrate on the bad guys and give your fanatical obsessions a rest.

BTW, cigarettes are 95% tax - the people of Haiti probably buy tobacco for pennies; in Canada smokers foot the bill for Health Care via tobacco taxes...so put that in a pipe for some poor soul in Haiti to smoke and send it to Haiti where it will be appreciated. Last I heard they didn't have medi-care in Haiti to pay for so no need for the anti's to force another tobacco tax in that country, 'for the sake of the children' and others.

Haiti is a horrible place to live, in the best of times, think of how terrifying it must be now - and thank the Good Lord that you and your family are living in Canada

UN climate body admits 'mistake' on Himalayan glaciers

"**IPCC imperialism on Indian glaciers

Climategate-I was the revelation that climate scientists crusading over global warming at East Anglia University had tried to censor inconvenient
data and shut dissenters out of academic journals. Climategate-II is the revelation that the 2007 report of the International Panel on Climate Change, saying Himalayan glaciers might disappear by 2035, was not science at all but idle, unsubstantiated speculation.

It speaks volumes for the huge biases within IPCC that it took two years for this hoax to be exposed. Any hoax opposing the global warming thesis would be exposed in ten seconds flat. The IPCC is willing to swallow unexamined what it finds convenient, while raising a thousand technical objections to anything inconvenient. This is religious crusading, not objective science. The tactics being used to discredit and destroy heretics is reminiscent of the Spanish Inquisition."

I don't begrudge them cigarettes and I understand they'd have cellphones, but after a week, surely they're recharging their cells somewhere. And if they have access to smokes and cell chargers, stolen or otherwise, why not water?

"It speaks volumes for the huge biases within IPCC that it took two years for this hoax to be exposed"

If you read Ezra Levan't book (Fight Kyoto), it is obvious that IPCC has manipulated the facts on this from Day 1. There were hundreds of changes to the scientists original findings made in by IPCC manipulators AFTER the scientists had signed off on their report.

It has been scandalously remiss of the media not to have investigated this. Obviously they are controlled -- I guess that's not new. I do think the loss of Rex Murphy's column in the Globe leaves a big hole.

I didn't really start to believe the Democrats could blow this one until yesterday, when Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi started to fight over Scott Brown's shiny mithril coat.

I liked Kenny Rogers when he was still doing rock and roll. "Rolling on the River" was one of my favourite TV shows. When I think back to the days of 'variety shows', I recall some enjoyable stuff. Sonny and Cher, Carol Burnett, Dean Martin. That was good, harmless, entertainment.

So, piss $2 billion away in corporate welfare - and wait until someone points out it wasn't a good idea to begin with - and then spend more on bureaucrats to formalize it. Great moments in government....whether Cons liars or Librano thieves....its all the same...

Ottawa questions biofuel impact

Mike De Souza, Canwest News Service Published: Wednesday, January 20, 2010
Related Topics

Three years after announcing $2-billion in subsidies for the biofuels industry, Prime Minister Stephen Harper's government has decided to probe whether the so-called renewable fuels might actually be harming the environment.

In a notice posted this month, Environment Canada said it plans to award a contract for consultants to study whether production of the fuels, which can be derived from crops or waste products, do more damage to air and land than gasoline.

"Liquid biofuels were initially viewed as an overall environmentally beneficial alternative to traditional hydrocarbon-based liquid fuels," the notice said. "However, recent studies in the United States suggest that this might not always be the case."

"Wilders Goes on Trial Today for Criticizing Islam

Mister Speaker, judges of the court, I would like to make use of my right to speak for a few minutes.

Freedom is the most precious of all our attainments and the most vulnerable. People have devoted their lives to it and given their lives for it. Our freedom in this country is the outcome of centuries. It is the consequence of a history that knows no equal and has brought us to where we are now.

I believe with all my heart and soul that the freedom in the Netherlands is threatened. That what our heritage is, what generations could only dream about, that this freedom is no longer a given, no longer self-evident.

I devote my life to the defence of our freedom. I know what the risks are and I pay a price for it every day. I do not complain about it; it is my own decision. I see that as my duty and it is why I am standing here.

I know that the words I use are sometimes harsh, but they are never rash. It is not my intention to spare the ideology of conquest and destruction, but I am not any more out to offend people. I have nothing against Muslims. I have a problem with Islam and the Islamization of our country because Islam is at odds with freedom.

Future generations will wonder to themselves how we in 2010, in this place, in this room, earned our most precious attainment. Whether there is freedom in this debate for both parties and thus also for the critics of Islam, or that only one side of the discussion may be heard in the Netherlands? Whether freedom of speech in the Netherlands applies to everyone or only to a few? The answer to this is at once the answer to the question whether freedom still has a home in this country.

Freedom was never the property of a small group, but was always the heritage of us all. We are all blessed by it.

Lady Justice wears a blindfold, but she has splendid hearing. I hope that she hears the following sentences, loud and clear:

It is not only a right, but also the duty of free people to speak against every ideology that threatens freedom. Thomas Jefferson, the third President of the United States was right: The price of freedom is eternal vigilance.

I hope that the freedom of speech shall triumph in this trial.

In conclusion, Mister Speaker, judges of the court.

This trial is obviously about the freedom of speech. But this trial is also about the process of establishing the truth. Are the statements that I have made and the comparisons that I have taken, as cited in the summons, true? If something is true then can it still be punishable? This is why I urge you to not only submit to my request to hear witnesses and experts on the subject of freedom of speech. But I ask you explicitly to honour my request to hear witnesses and experts on the subject of Islam. I refer not only to Mister Jansen and Mister Admiraal, but also to the witness/experts from Israel, the United States, and the United Kingdom. Without these witnesses, I cannot defend myself properly and, in my opinion, this would not be an fair trial."

Thanks maz2. It will be an enlightening case.

Related to the Wilders case,but happening in Canada. CBC has another story up about the 'Terrorist 18'. Alongside this story are links to 5 other stories about these homegrown canadian killers. Six stories ,comments not allowed on any. I beleive that this is done for two reasons. One; We mustn't offend those who would kill us and those who support the killers,and #2,the powers that be do not want the people of Canada to find out that there are many who share the same feelings towards the barbaric cult that spawned this scum.

As flattering as that is, it will drive our $ up and hurt central Canada's economy.

If people knew the truth about islam, we would never have allowed their pretend religion adherents to gain access to the west.

The reason "Europen life style make them hate islam i think" ... uff.... The reason europeans hate islamists, is that islam is opposed to freedom, and we'll never forsake our freedoms for a political system based on fascist ideas masquerading as a fake religion.
A fake religion!

Nobody "makes you" hate them. hate is a choice "new". I chose to hate islamists, Islam chooses to teach hate, and opposition to freedom.
You cannot make islam look good... Islam is what it is.

New,your thinking is as bad as your spelling. You are a victim. Grasp that concept,fight against those who made you one. It is not Wilders,or the people here. It is your 'religion' that tells you that you are not equal to the man who stands over you. Get out from under his thumb.I'd rather spend the rest of my days in a concrete prison than a prison of my own humiliation. Escape while you can,and do it for your children too.

"Geert Wilders: 'I want Muslim fanatic to speak in my defence'

Geert Wilders, the Dutch far-Right MP, has demanded that his race hate trial should hear evidence from the fanatic who used the Koran to justify killing the director of an anti-Islamic film.

It marked an incendiary opening to the landmark case that has divided the Netherlands over the limits of freedom. Mr Wilders, 46, who is accused of incitement and discrimination, asked for 18 witnesses to be called in his defence, including Mohammed Bouyeri, the man who stabbed and shot Theo Van Gogh in an Amsterdam street in 2004.

The Van Gogh murder left a deep scar on the national conscience. It helped to change the mood of tolerance of Islam, and boosted Mr Wilders’s popularity.

Mr Wilders, whose Party for Freedom came second in the European elections last summer, faces a 70-page charge sheet covering five counts of breaking Dutch law in more than 100 public statements — for example, by likening the Koran to Hitler’s Mein Kampf and calling for an end to the “Islamic invasion”. He could be fined or jailed if convicted.

The alleged offences include Mr Wilders’s film Fitna, which shows images of 9/11 and beheadings interspersed with verses from the Koran. It ends with a clip of the controversial Danish cartoon of the Prophet Muhammad."

More re AGW fraud:

"The IPCC's Abominable Snowmen

The scientists who said that Himalayan glaciers will be gone by 2035 have admitted the claim has as much credibility as sightings of the mythical Yeti. It's their fraudulent claims that are melting away.

We hesitate to call it Glacier-gate, but the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the U.N. body tasked with scaring us to death about global warming, has admitted that the claim in its 2007 report about the Himalayan glaciers disappearing was not based on any scientific study or research. It was instead based on one scientist's speculation in a telephone interview with a reporter.

The IPCC claimed: "Glaciers in the Himalayas are receding faster than in any other part of the world and, if the present rate continues, the likelihood of their disappearing by the year 2035 and perhaps sooner is very high if the earth keeps warming at the current rate."

As it turns out, the earth hasn't been warming at all, at least not in the last decade, and reputable scientists have said it may continue to cool for decades to come. Even if it was warming, glaciologists insist, the sheer mass of Himalayan glaciers made such a prediction laughable.

Professor Julian Dowdeswell, director of the Scott Polar Research Institute at Cambridge University, notes: "Even a small glacier, such as the Dokriani glacier, is up to 120 meters (394 feet) thick. A big one would be several hundred meters thick and tens of kilometers long."

"The estimated of the total cost of the project in Canadian dollars is $270 million. On the Canadian side, it is approximately $150 million to design and build the CO2 reference plant, related CO2 pipeline infrastructure and a North American training facility for CCS technicians.

The Government of Saskatchewan will provide up to $50 million through Crown Investments Corporation and has requested funding of $100 million from the federal government through its Clean Energy Fund.

The State of Montana has requested $100 million (US) from the Government of the United States through the Department of Energy to support construction of a CO2 pipeline on the U.S. side of the border and development of the underground CO2 storage and research in the infrastructure in Montana."
