With EBD on a well-deserved break for a few weeks, you’ll have to be content with my low-brow musical tastes. Tonight I bring you this brand new instant earworm by Miranda Lambert – Automatic. Your own “three on the tree” memories and tips in the comments.

John Barlow won the McLeod riding nomination?
What a shame. He is a pure Liberal opportunist. If that’s who the CPC is sending to Ottawa, then we’ve come full circle back to the old PC party.

Would this not be counterproductive?
So much hot air for no particular reason?
So much hot air contributed to the already politically generated AGW?
So much hot damn air?
that will generate enough Co2 to grow a rain forest.
I think it’s a very nice song by her . I have never her dandy thing by her before but wow that’s a nice song.

Note: Junk Gypsy’s also did her Airstream camper up in their style, to match her song, The Airstream Song. It’s perfect for taking a gal to the beach with.. photos at their site as well.
N Korea has just held elections and who would have ever guessed the outcome ? The anticipation must have been nerve wracking.

Who hasn’t dreamed of taking a African vacation and then getting a surprise visit by a family of wild gorillas. I’m not sure this is news, but it certainly was to the recipients.

Re: Automatic
Great song–good looking lady!!
Thanks eh!!
I think vote splitting played a very big role in the outcome.
More interestingly drudges online poll had them neck and neck. And no one else hardly on the radar.
Maybe it’s time Alberta sent a Separatist to Ottawa. Bypass CPC? Any chance of that?
New host for Hockey Night in Canada when Rogers takes over you ask? George Strombopoulos of CBC talk show ‘fame’..way to ruin the only show we watch on cbc! It’s the banner headline at Natnewswatch.
As the oceans absorb more carbon dioxide from burning fossil fuels (primarily coal), it increases ocean acidity to a point where shellfish can’t survive. It is referred to as ocean acidification and results in sea creatures’ inability to grow skeletons and protective shells. The process occurs much faster in colder climes.
West coast scallops are the latest bivalves to feel the bite. Ten million tiny scallops have died in waters off Victoria, B.C., reported the Parksville Qualicum Beach News.
Nanaimo-based Island Scallops, a grow-out hatchery with 1,235 acres in production, has shut down its processing plant and laid off a third of its workforce. That accounts for about 16 percent of B.C.’s total shellfish aquaculture, valued at $10 million.
“The high acidity in the local waters interferes with everything they do, their basic physiology is affected,” said Chris Harley, a marine ecologist at the University of B.C.

“Antisemitism Explained From An Objectivist Perspective”
“Socialists and communists are not at all rational actors. That they are, is a propaganda myth the intelligentsia has itself spread through its near monopoly on intellectual pursuits, or to put it more concretely, through its control of the universities.”
“It is common knowledge –at least for part of the right– that resentment of Israel is merely an extension of Western self-hatred. We know that Israel is hated by the Arab world and many of the “have nots” of the postmodern age, because the fact that it is the only democracy and successful economy in the Middle East serves as a constant and unwelcome reminder to these countries that their problems cannot simply be blamed on the Western colonial legacy, and that, on the contrary, there is a fundamental flaw in their mentality and culture. For the same reason, the leftist intelligentsia of the West hates Israel: for them, this country is the distillation of their concept of the West to its very essence: the ultimate and eternal oppressor, a fusion of the destructive racism and capitalism that according to them constitute the core of Western culture. And needless to say, the Palestinians and other Arabs personify the eternal proletarian class of the oppressed.”

Considering that 400ppm is among the lowest levels of CO2 ever seen on this planet it is a wonder that shellfish managed to evolve. I wonder how they managed to avoid dissolving when CO2 levels were somewhere north of 4000ppm, as they were throughout most of Earth’s history?

You have reduced yourself to being nothing more than a common troll. I am very disappointed.
I imagine so.
But the 3 non-socialist candidates should have sorted that out amongst themselves and withdrawn in a manner that did not permit the Liberal to win a conservative nomination.
Hey north of 60….is this thesamevictoria that dumps its raw sewage straight into the ocean? you really area dipS$it. they are doing it to themselves.i wonder where the hatchery is compared towhere theydumpthere sewage!!!

“Investors are very nervous about China this morning after exports plunge shocking 18%”
“World stocks paused near a 6-year peak and commodities from copper to crude tumbled today as surprisingly weak Chinese trade data rattled investors”

That article is total BS. The ocean doesn’t become acid until the ph is below 7. It’s nowhere near that.

http://pjmedia.com/victordavishanson/putin-is-everything-and-more-but-not-stupid/?singlepage=true
“Putin thinks that if the EU and the U.S. were in agreement to punish aggression, if Iraq were stable and garrisoned, if Afghanistan were the same, if Libya were calm, if the Benghazi murderers were in chains, if Egypt were working, if Iran were giving up its nuclear weapons, and if Syria were free of Assad, then it might be a questionable risk to steal the Crimea. But given they are not, what we think is dumb for him is not so much.”
Personally, I think Putin is done with the aggressive stuff for now. He will consolidate his gains and simply wait for the next opportunity. The west is trying very hard to goad him into an error, but I do not see any of that having much chance for success.
Shellfish are disappearing as the environment changes, childishly name-calling anyone who posts something you don’t like or can’t understand won’t bring them back will it? It will be interesting to see if they adapt or die, the shellfish too.
I don’t eat shellfish so I don’t much care.

” Ontario worries about auto industry in Canada-South Korea deal ”
The article does not name anyone who speaks for ‘Ontario ‘, but ‘they’ say they have a ‘source’ that is familiar with the negotiations.
The article is authored by ‘CBC news’, no name attached.
It is another anti-Harper hit piece put together by the CBC. No one named as either source or author,anonymous all the way through. Comments that point those inconvenient facts do not usually see the light of day.
A billion dollars a year for this BS, Fire.Them.All.

It is racist to consider that islam may be behind the disappearance of that plane.
It is also racist to mention islam, if they are behind the disappearance.
The enablers and apologists have got all their bases covered with the stench of political correctness.

In front the sun climbs slow, how slowly,
But westward, look, the land is bright.”
