Good evening ladies and gentlemen, welcome to SDA Late Nite Radio. Tonight, for your delectation, here is the oldest symphony orchestra in the world, the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra, performing Johannes Brahms‘ Symphony N° 3, II, III, & IV, in F Major, Op. 90, Kurt Masur conducting, from the Glasgow Royal Concert Hall, in 1991 (33:30). This is, I think, overall, an excellent performance and presentation: audio, video, & production. (It’s also nice to see an audience that knows how to wait for a tune to properly end before applauding.) If you’re short of time, you might like to start reception of this transmission at the beginning of part III, and then, of course, things really take off in part IV.
Your Reader Tips are, as always, welcome in the comments.
This remind you of the HRC case in BC?

Excellent! Quality makes the difference.

The “Poll of the Day” this morning was at 86% in favor of churches and volunteer organisations having the ability to do background checks for criminal activity. I just checked the poll results again a few minutes ago and and it stands at 75% in favor of NO background checks. I wonder which leftard blogger and its ilk is responsible?
Someday–I’ll get to like that kind of music, along with olives that still have the pit inside, and cheese that smells like my Dad’s workboots.
Joe,
Take in part 4 and you’ll see conductor ‘Kurt’ make a few wild moves. Reminds one of Joe Croce.
The music is quite powerful. Just turn up the stereo and check the close ups on the fingers. Do they all bite their nails? Do they all get deluxe nail jobs with clear nail polish?
These musicians are much smarter than us average folks. How they can remember all those fancy moves over four long parts is beyond me.
Now back to my Hooters magazine which I read in the dark.
My girlfriend stomped off in big huff.
How can you read that sleazy magazine in the dark?
Well, my vision is normal but I subscribe to their issues in braille.
She’s steamed because she thinks I only ‘read’ the pictures.
And it’s only half as sleazy as Playboy because it only deals with the upper half of the body.
Jeeze, women?

“Dead Dogs
Breed bans, euthanasia, and preemptive justice
Early on Friday morning, March 11, 2005, a caravan of vehicles drove from New Orleans to a home outside the city of Lafayette, in the heart of “Cajun country.” State police, a SWAT team, U.S. customs officials, and federal agents, with the aid of the Louisiana Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (LSPCA) and the Humane Society of the United States, raided the home of Floyd Boudreaux. They confiscated 57 American pit bull terriers and arrested Boudreaux and his son Guy on 48 counts of dogfighting. The dogs were loaded into a truck and driven back to New Orleans.
That night the LSPCA began killing the dogs by injection. They did not stop until the next day. By the time the Boudreauxs were released on bail on Monday morning, their dogs had already been cremated.”

“Our shame still lies in the Katyn forest
SUNDAY TELEGRAPH(LONDON) ^ | April 27, 2003, Sunday | KEVIN MYERS
Today Poles all over the world will commemorate the 60th anniversary of the discovery of the war crime which didn’t occur. And the non-existence of this atrocity constituted democracy’s most sordid exercise in realpolitik of the entire 20th century. The Soviet Union captured 180,000 Polish soldiers during its invasion of Poland in 1939. Most were herded off to slave-camps in Siberia, but 22,000 officers were not. In April 1940, on Stalin’s orders, each was bound with barbed wire and executed with a single shot to the head.
This was a colossal undertaking: the death toll was greater than that on the most calamitous day in British military history – the Somme, July 1, 1916. More importantly, the massacres occurred before the German invasions of France and the Low Countries. And although hundreds of Jews in Poland had been murdered, these were improvised butcheries, essentially unrelated to The Final Solution, which had not yet begun.
So the first systematic mass murder of defenceless innocents in the Second World War was not by the Nazis, but by the Soviet Union, just over a year before the USSR became Britain’s official best friend. This shouldn’t surprise us: after all, it had been the Soviets, and not the Nazis, who invented industrialised murder. From the revolution on, they freely used the word “exterminate” of their enemies. Hitler listened; and Hitler learned, as dictators do. Moreover, the careful murder of so many officers from a single narrow stratum of Polish society was truly proto-genocide: its intent was to eliminate Polish identity by the extermination of all its perceived guardians.”

“MP seeks support to end sex offender pardons
By KATIE SCHNEIDER, QMI Agency
CALGARY – Disgusted by the pardon of child molester and former hockey coach Graham James, one Alberta MP is soon tabling a petition to disallow convicted sex offenders that right.
Wild Rose MP Blake Richards said he was so outraged by the National Parole Board’s 2007 pardoning of James, who served 3 1/2 years for sexually abusing two of his hockey players including Sheldon Kennedy, he wants the law changed to include sex offenders in the list of ineligible applicants.
“I was, as most people disgusted by the fact someone like that, a very high profile person convicted of pretty sick crime … and to then hear is allowed to get a pardon, sits the wrong way,” he said.
Richards’ constituents and staff are gathering signatures for a petition he hopes to table in the House this month.
“In my view, we need to make sure we can protect our vulnerable, our children,” he said.
“Anyone who preys on our children, we have to be aware of who those people are.”
The only requirement for a petition is 25 signatures, but Richards believes he will get multiple times that amount.
He said he hopes other MPs will step forward and do the same but for him, the news of the pardon hit home.”

It’s your fault youse “blogs and other new media”.
Look what youse did to the UN/WHO’s swine flu Fraud: youse rattled the “experts”. More “experts” are investigating.
“”blogs and other new media generated speculation and criticism, according to the WHO official.”
But, chill out; don’t sweat it ’cause:
“The pandemic is still officially underway.”.

maz I wonder if they will mention Taft’s position as he resigns as head of the Libs. and will run as an independent.
Notice Obama’s latest apocalytic scenario?
Obama uses ONE strategy to make-you-do-what-he wants. As I’ve said, I suspect he moved into a singular manipulative mode of interaction as a young boy when he, abandoned by his parents, felt the need to control his environment.
His tactics of interaction are, not to persuade you by reason, facts, logic. No, they are to manipulate you by misinformation, by emotional manipulation and by threats if you don’t accede to his control.
He uses an IF-THEN apocalyptic framework. If you don’t do what he wants, THEN, an terrible apocalpyse will result. He’s quite successful in this.
IF you don’t pass his stimulus bill, THEN, the US and even the world economy will collapse.
He got Congress to pass this – without reading or debating it..and we now find it’s nothing but a pork filled patronage mess that’s irrelevant to jobs.
IF you don’t pass his health care bill, THEN, 40 million Americans will die.
He got Congress to pass this…by using backroom bribes, pay-offs, and political deals…and it has nothing to do with providing better health care.
Now, he’s..into another one:
IF you don’t pass his nuclear weapons reduction, THEN, the terrorists will steal these weapons and use them against you.
Notice his strategy? It’s all the same. An IF-THEN framework, based on no evidence, but he links the IF and THEN by emotion, by fear of a catastrophe.
Clever; he sets up a hypothetical Worse Case future sceneario. Then he links it to your current action that he wants you to do, and he suggests that if YOU don’t do what HE wants, then YOU are responsible for this hypothetical future event.
Unethical. Unprincipled. Corrupt.

Of epidemics, pandemics, and exterminations:
“Only the investigative journal Private Eye published the gory details of the exterminations.”
“There is another lesson for PNS in the ‘foot and mouth’ episode. It was presented to the public as ‘normal science’: “here’s an epidemic, let’s apply the science and stop it”. The uncertainties and value-conflicts were suppressed. More to the point, the ‘extended peer community’ was nonexistent. Divisions among the scientists were kept under wraps. Damage to the rural communities was revealed piecemeal, and then as incidental to the noble effort of quarantine. Only the investigative journal Private Eye published the gory details of the exterminations.”

That reminds me of the sculptor who asked a gogeous young art student if she would pose in the nude. “I’ll have to ask my boyfirned if he minds” said the student.
She went home, asked her boyriend, he thought it was OK.
About a month later, the boyfriend comes home one night, storming mad! “I’m really upset about you and that sculptor.”
“What’s wrong honey,” asked the art student. “I thought you said it was OK if I posed in the nude.”
“Ya–but you never told me he was blind!”
