A list of how the Harper government has worked on ruining Canada with full support of the Liberal party.
Dipper Chick: Paranoia hits the Liberal camp. Hard.
What kind of Liberal arrogance makes a person forget that he and his
Liberal caucus sat through the last parliament and not only allowed the
Harper agenda to become a reality, but actually assisted it vote after
vote? I love how Liberals act like what they do while they are in
parliament is somehow less important what they say they want to do in parliament during an election.

Grinding Canadian Productivity Down.
The Progressive Economics Forum » Stephen Harper’s Uniquely Bad Productivity Record
This makes his the first government in postwar Canadian history to oversee a cumulative decline in the level of productivity over its entire term of office.
Don't be fooled twice!
Anything But Conservative
Don't be fooled twice like you were with Mike Harris and with Brian Mulroney. Put an end to the Conservative reign of terror now. Vote them out of office.

What Men Want/What Women Want
Men and women are quite different, which basically means that
(surprise!) they are driven by different things in a mate. Having been
a single woman living in Los Angeles for a while now, and being the
ever-observant creature that I am, I feel that the following is pretty
accurate in regard to what we want from each other:

Nakma - the movie
パレスチナ1948 -NAKBA-
The year 2008 marks the 60th anniversary of the foundation of Israel. It marks also the beginning of 60 years of the suffering for the Palestinian people. This tragedy is referred to as the “Nakba,” meaning catastrophe in Arabic.
Since 1948 at least 420 Palestinian villages have vanished. The photo journalist Ryuichi Hirokawa has filmed over 1,000 hours of footage and has taken thousands of photographs of the Palestinian people and their vanished villages. This film is a distillation of this footage.
The Conservatives are NOT good with our money.
» Exposing the “Conservatives are good for the economy” as a falsehood. Scott’s DiaTribes: My personal opinions on social and political issues from a progressive standpoint.
Stephen Harper turned a $12 billion dollar surplus into a deficit in the BEST of times. And now that things are going sideways and he’s telling us that, in these times of ‘uncertainty’, that he’s the best man for the job? And we’re believing him!?
Apple wants to put DRM in your clothes
New Scientist Technology Blog: Apple's latest DRM will restrict your wardrobe
They seem to consider this beyond the pale. The patent details a way of
"pairing a sensor and an authorised garment", such as "running shoes,
shirts or slacks". Companies like Nike could authorise their garments
by burying an RFID chip inside it. That chip is required to activate
the sensor. No longer will you be able to use the sensor you paid for
with any shoe of your choosing.
Apple's idea sounds mean-minded to me. What do you think?
The company has previous form, though. Last year they tried to patent a system that would prevent you from recharging a music player if you ever use it with unauthorised software.

They now are working on a new record. According
to Liz Green (vocals and lyrics), the new stuff is sounding rather
different from the old stuff and is being aired at live gigs to test
out. The band is currently also working on another DM cover, "In your
room", after their "Free" rendition. Swarf will also be appearing on
the soundtrack to the film "Vampire Diaries".
