Tonight we kick off the weekend tips threads with some light vintage Euro-pop, as Dutch group Shocking Blue and lead singer Mariska Veres perform their signature hit Venus.
If you prefer, here's a bonus track from Veres' father, the Hungarian gypsy violinist Veres Lajos.
The comments are open, as always, for your Reader Tips.











Thank you for inviting us into your country! Nice to see you!
I've condensed Michael Harris' latest foaming-at-the-mouth rant so you don't have to read it:
Get help, Harris.
At least 500 people turn up at Muslim cemetery for burial of Copenhagen gunman.
Yes, that's in Copenhagen.

Hmmm ... family. Must be breeding like rats.

Trust in science and have faith in those who scare the hell out people with climate change doomsday prophecies.
Looks like Wynne still has that paedophile Ben Levin still pulling the strings. Absolutely disgusting! If tge parents don't march in the streets to stop this, it's the kids who will suffer.
So you own a farm,........and Muslims buy adjacent land to build a mosque,.......and they want you to move away,.....and you don't want to.

In order to revise history the curriculum must be changed to meet the new politically correct enlightenment.

Just a thought for Friday night. The Chimp-in-chief says cAGW is the greatest threat to America. I say nay. In 3.75 billion years, the Andromeda galaxy will collide with our Milky Way. Can't wait for the fireworks then. But then we won't be around anyways, as Sol will go super nova before then, vaporizing everything out to Saturn. Time for another scotch.
He's certainly a heart-throb (?), to be sure: on the other hand, I'm pretty much certain that folks here in Ontario will be planting their vote with the local guy -- Stephen J. Harper (great book on the hockey "syndrome", actually), plus we have...oh, never mind!
AGW fraud RE: Sea levels.
Some "real" Science Research
Inferences of Pliocene global sea-level heights or stability of Antarctic ice sheets therefore cannot be deciphered in the absence of an appropriate mantle dynamic reference frame.

Harris sounds as though he's ready to pop a blood vessel.
(I hope Harper has GOOD bodyguards.)
Katharine Hayhoe is an Associate Professor in the Public Administration program at Texas Tech University and Director of the Climate Science Center at Texas Tech, part of the South-Central Climate Science Center.
Does an Associate Prof in Public Administration count as a scientist now? She doesn't tell us what her PhD is in. She is lauded as a communicator not a scientist. Smoke and mirrors

IMO Harris has a sick obsession with Stephen Harper. Harris was adamantly against Bush and the Iraq
war. Harper's opinion at the time, when it was thought they had weapons of mass destruction,we should stand with our traditional allies on that front. Harris has been seething ever since.
It's sad to see such tripe coming from an intelligent, compassionate person I thought Harris to be.
More evidence of Global warming.

Richard Fernandez hits it out of the park.
No, out of the park, out of the village.
No, out of the county.
No ... well you get the idea. A superb, crisp reading of the hysterical reaction to Giuliani's profoundly true claim that Obama does not love his country.

The irony in Wynne's reasoning for mandating the new curriculum was that there was some kind of associated risk if the information wasn't provided in the classroom. Not that it was necessary to teach it, but that the kids will see it and she wants to make sure a university trained expert would be the one to give it to them.
Heres what I suggest. Seeing as the criteria is risk and if the information is out there perhaps its time the curriculum was updated for history, geography, and the social studies to include information on the dangers of radical islam.
...and any objections based on morality or religious belief can be ignored.
@Exiled Maritimer: You can go to her web page for more details on her qualifications and career. According to that site, she has a Phd in "atmospheric science" from the University of Illinois. Her qualifications overall appear to make her very qualified to speak on scientific matters, including climate.
"Get help, Harris"
There's no cure for Sissy.
"atmospheric science" Yeah. She figured out that when the dew point and the temp are the same, with an RH above 50%, clouds form. She's about as qualified to speak on climate as my mail girl is. Or Mann for that matter.

"the Chinese state media CCTV and the local multicultural channel OMNI were positioned to capture the money shot of Mr. Trudeau with Mr. Luo, a moment meant to evoke a historical echo, given Mr. Trudeau’s father’s storied closeness with the autocratic country. Ultimately, the federal Liberal Leader arrived; the ambassador, however, was a no-show."

"Bitter Siberian winds to blame for Canadian chill"
"Cold wind from Russia’s frigid Siberian region has swept into Canada and plunged parts of the country into near record-setting low temperatures, while dumping up to 250 centimetres of snow on parts of the Maritimes since January.
Southern and Central Ontario remain under extreme cold weather alerts, as does a large section of southeastern Quebec. Weather experts say the cold is due to a temporary, but lengthy shift in the jet stream that’s drawing Arctic air from Siberia and the North West Territories down over Central and Eastern Canada."
