2007-11-06 17:00 Hello, Blue Roses [ft. Dan Bejar] Reveal LP Details
Photo by Jen Weih It was over a year ago when we first greeted Hello, Blue Roses in these here pages. Now the duo-- which includes a man you may know by the name of Dan Bejar and a lady you may not (but should) called Sydney Vermont -- has spilled the beans on its previously mentioned debut full-length release. A strange flower indeed, Hello Blue Roses (note the absent comma) blooms in January-- the 22nd, to be precise-- thanks to the green thumbs at Chicago's Locust imprint. The 14-track set ap …

Band to play webcast Downloads to land band mad cash Story to include periods You can already expect a hefty Radiohead box set and/or the clunkiest-looking USB drive ever under your pan-religious holiday tree this season, but what to do with all those gift cards and store return credits Looks like you just might be able to use them to complete your box set, as the unconfirmed word is that In Rainbows will indeed hit U.S. shops in CD form via ATO/Side One -- and what's more, it may well do so Jan …

2007-11-06 08:00 News: Sufjan Stevens Tours Australia, Japan in January

Australia: Six states, a coupla territories, 20 million people, and enough koalas and kangaroos to inspire several string-and-horn arrangements. Time for another Sufjan Stevens concept project, eh While the thought of an orchestral ode to the homeland of Yahoo Serious and Kylie Minogue is enticing, no such thing is planned at the moment (at least that we know of).

Canadians prefer graphite sticks to wood The Canadian Loonie dollar may be up compared to the US dollar, but other, more disturbing signs point to a looming crisis for our neighbors to the North. Indeed, this headline bodes ill for Canada's all important forest products industry: Sher-Wood to stop making wooden hockey sticks .They've scored untold millions of goals on rinks, ponds and streets across the country, but in a few weeks' time workers will lovingly fashion the last of Sher-Wood's signa …

2007-11-05 12:34 Onward to Belm, the global network of social movements appeal to get out in the streets on 26th of …
Today social movements are confronted by a new phase in the capitalist neoliberal system's offensive. This period is characterised above all by a state of permanent global war. For most of the human race this war means recolonisation. Using the war on terror' as a cover, this war aims at controlling natural resources by pillaging peoples the world over. American projects in the Greater Middle East' and South America are the most visible signs of this. Nevertheless, they cannot cover up the fo …

2007-11-02 06:00 Burden of the Ballot
There's never really any sense to what the world does or doesn't do. Take presidential elections, for instance. In January the candidate that is ahead is projected to win. One party gets excited while the other searches hard for dirt. Then, two months later, you find out that candidate had sex with a guy or cheated on his wife or got high on his pain pills or else had plastic surgery. From then on his credibility is destroyed and the other party becomes the top runner. Then at the ballot box you …

El Skeptical Inquire prueba, mediante reduccin al absurdo, que los vampiros no existen. Cun hermosas las disecciones y autopsias conceptuales! Vampires Anyone who has seen John Carpenter s Vampires, Dracula, Blade, or any other vampire film is already quite familiar with the vampire legend. The vampire needs to feed on human blood. After one has stuck his fangs into your neck and sucked you dry, you turn into a vampire yourself and carry on the blood-sucking legacy. The fact of the matter is, …

2007-10-31 14:42 Students can get hundreds of thousands SEK in refund
No one knows exactly where the final cost will land. But it is already clear that the university has charged hundreds of thousand SEK in exorbitant rent from the exchange students for just this term. Earlier the people responsible at Folkuniversitetet and IHO claimed that there did not exist any other addition except for the administrative fee of SEK 600. But when Lundagrd together with the tenants association worked out the monthly rent the source of the too high rent was discovered. IHO charg …

2007-10-25 20:18 Taleban with nukes No, but time is running out
By Bronwen Maddox (THE TIMES, 25/10/07): This has been a shatteringly bleak week for Pakistan, but not one that condemns it to being a failed state. The return of Benazir Bhutto, overshadowed by the bomb that killed 140, is a step forward. But although she has been championed in Europe and the US, she is a long way from being the solution to her country s savage problems. Pakistan dominates Britain s foreign worries, officials say, and they are right. It is not just that terrorism is on the incr …

By BEN FELLER WASHINGTON (AP) "The pro-democratic movement that Bush lauded, in perspective, is small. Members of Cuba 's small organized opposition are better known outside than inside the country. None of the dissident leaders has any kind of significant following on the island, except for Oswaldo Paya, founder of Cuba 's Christian Liberation Movement and promoter of the Varela Project, a pro-democracy signature-gathering effort that the government later shelved.
