Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark release their new single ‘If You Want It’ on 6th September, the first to be taken from their forthcoming album ‘History Of Modern’. It’s classic OMD given a contemporary shot in the arm — big, bold and beautiful with a chorus so infectious it will inevitably produce a ‘lighters in the air’ sing along moment at future shows.
The single is accompanied by a stellar remix package from some of today’s most exciting new artists, many for whom OMD have been a huge influence on their own music. Reading like a who’s who of the new wave of electro pop, they include Londoners We Have Band, Finnish electro duo Villa Nah, ex Ox Eagle Lion Man, Club Royale, melodic dance purveyors Teeth, Brooklyn based blog darlings French Horn Rebellion, and New York electro outfit Cold Cave.
All artwork is designed by longtime cohort and legendary artist Peter Saville.
OMD TOUR
This autumn also sees OMD embark on the 'History of Modern' tour, with the classic line up of Andy McCluskey, Paul Humphreys, Martin Cooper and Malcolm Holmes. After three years of critically acclaimed sell out concerts in the UK and Europe these dates will see the band mixing the new songs with the classic hits to create a distinctly contemporary live show.
OMD have announced Finnish electro duo Villa Nah to support the forthcoming UK tour. Long time fans of the band, they said “OMD's records and sound have been a big influence for us: A perfect combination of electronic music and classic songwriting. Supporting them on tour is not only a massive honour but also a privilege!”. OMD’s Andy McCluskey added “We are really delighted that Villa Nah are joining us on this tour. They have taken the sound of our youth and created a distinctive and personal sound for their own. One of the few really new electronic bands of this millennium!’
Villa Nah have also delivered an inspired remix for ‘If You Want It’, the first single to be taken from OMD’s first studio album in 14 years ‘History Of Modern’.

So Nissan has finally come to a decision on the launch date for the new Nissan Leaf. So time in June 2010... Anyway the car is said to be 100% electric and go about 90MPH with no problems accelerating and can last about 100 miles before another charge. The only problem I see is if you don't have a plug near you every couple of hours, it might not be for you.
Also when you buy the car (which is $25k to 26k) they give you instructions and a card for a company that can install a "special plug" to charge the car at home with. This will probably cost you another $1k plus raise your electric bill...
Other than that ^above, the design and technology is just astonishing. I believe Nissan has done something that would make it into history, just as long as they don't give up on it.

CHRISTIAN ZIONIST “FANATIC” GROUP ARRESTED IN MICHIGAN PART OF MAINSTREAM MILITIA
“STAR OF DAVID” REMOVED FROM SITE AFTER ARREST
By Gordon Duff STAFF WRITER/Senior Editor
“In the name of God and the devil, one to reward and the other to punish, and by the powers of light and darkness, goodness and evil, here under the black arch of heaven’s avenging symbol, I pledge and consecrate my heart, my brain, my body, and limbs; and swear by all the powers of heaven and hell, to devote my life to the obedience of my superiors that I will exert every possible means in my power for the extermination of the antichrist, Communist, the Roman hierarchy, and their abettors.” (Michigan’s Black Legion Oath)
This week, a massive federal raid in our area netted what we are told was a Christian terrorist organization planning to murder dozens of police in our region. Almost immediately, the other militia and pro-gun organizations distanced themselves. Who are the “Hutaree’s” and how are they different from the other militias? Well, the group are all republicans, 100%. No surprise there, in fact, the Michigan Militias have always been activist GOP, back into the 1990s. There is a much older history, though, one not taught in our schools.
The militias in Michigan and Ohio all have their roots in the KKK from back in the resurgent years of the 1920s. However, their primary activities were financial, they were “strike breakers” and “scabs,” turncoat shills for factory owners who looked for criminals and thugs to keep from paying fair wages. The Black Legion was not only the most violent arm of the KKK but also worked like their Nazi Germany counterparts, the SA and SS, to suppress organized labor. (Check out this history of the Black Legion)
Richard Bak writes of the Black Legion:
“… individuals targeted by the Legion, notably civil-rights attorney Maurice Sugar, were convinced it was an immense threat. Sugar and Homer Martin, president of the fledgling United Automobile Workers, believed the Legion’s reach extended into the factories of local automakers like Hudson and Packard, where members were given jobs and special privileges in exchange for sabotaging the efforts of union organizers. They insisted Legion members had infiltrated union ranks as management spies, while others worked for the Dawn Patrol Detective Agency, a private security force that guarded factories. Eventually, three unsolved murders of labor activists, one of whom was hanged, turned out to be Legion handiwork. There almost assuredly were more, but Dean could attest only to those crimes he had firsthand knowledge of. Other implicated Legionnaires kept their mouths zipped.
Sugar had a deeply personal interest in bringing down the Legion: They had marked him for assassination. Dean confirmed a couple of botched attempts to kill Sugar the previous year when the liberal lawyer was running for city council and Recorder’s Court judge. Sugar spent months investigating the Legion for a book he never wrote. One of the most chilling plots he uncovered was the plan to release cyanide gas in local synagogues during Hanukkah. Another unrealized scheme involved “Major General” Arthur Lupp of Highland Park, an investigator for the Detroit Board of Health and the Legion’s buffoonish state commander. Lupp, who was not charged in the Poole murder, allegedly experimented with methods of injecting typhoid germs into dairy products sold in Jewish neighborhoods.
Psychologists studied Legion members in custody. Most were Southern transplants with few industrial skills, nagged by a feeling of alienation in an urban environment that seemed to increasingly favor foreigners, minorities, and Catholics at the expense of the old-stock Protestants that had settled the nation. Detroit, one of the largest ethnic and racial melting pots in the country, was particularly threatening.
In the 30s, the Black Legion was broken up and the leaders imprisoned for being involved in lynchings. Investigations showed strong political ties to the Michigan Republican Party through an organization known as the Wolverine Republican Club. There is a long history in Michigan, a state with a significant German American population, of strong politics and violence. During the 1930s, Germany’s political problems reemerged in Michigan as “out state” groups aligned with the Nazi party and its numerous front groups, the Liberty League (aligned with the American Legion), the German American Bund, the Committee of One Million and many others. In opposition was the AFL-CIO and United Auto Workers under Walter Reuther.
The “Black Legion” is the precursor of the current militia movements in Michigan and Ohio and, to a large extent, the Republican parties of those two states.
Several Hollywood movies depict that period including The Black Legion (1935) with Humphrey Bogart and The Betsy (1978). The militia groups of that time were hired by the Mafia or through groups like Ford Motor Company’s “Service Bureau” to silence labor leaders through employment of terrorist tactics.
In 1927, a “tax protester” in the small town of Bath, Michigan, just outside Lansing, dynamited the local elementary school killing 42 children. The Oklahoma City bombing of the 1990s, tied to the Michigan Militia, would mirror this act with considerable precision.
ALWAYS “BIG BUSINESS” OVER UNIONS, ALWAYS “GOP,” THE MILITIAS NEVER STOPPED CHASING A BUCK
Original militias were anti-Catholic, racist but always working for big business, armed and financed through local police departments and even the Michigan National Guard. Their orders usually came from the factory owners to the Republican Party and then down to the backwoods thugs who worked as the enforcers for Wall Street. Even into the 1990s, the militia organizations that Timothy McVeigh “may” have belonged to, as few people on this earth have been “denied” as often as McVeigh, Christ included, tied themselves to the almighty dollar. At one point, the only money coming into the militias was from the tobacco lobby who paid certain militia leaders for pushing the membership into opposition to anti-smoking legislation.
FOX, ZIONISM, PALIN AND ANTI-GOVERNMENT VIOLENCE
If any two individuals speak for the anti-government militias, they are Glen Beck and Sarah Palin. I would credit strong anti-government bias with patriotism were I not familiar with the record of the militia movement. In Michigan, the militia movement disbanded when “W” was “elected” stating “there is no longer any need to protect America with a man like Bush in the White House.”
Months later we had 9/11 followed by the Patriot Acts, the new Homeland Security bureaucracy, the attack on Iraq, the Katrina meltdown and then the economic collapse. It wasn’t until the insurance industry was threatened with regulation that the militia movements reemerged as “End of Days” and “Rapture/Apocalypse” groups. Anyone who doesn’t smell the under the table payoffs involved in the new militias isn’t paying much attention.
Having thousands of uneducated Christian Zionist mercenaries, unknowing as to their own status, mind you, running loose in America is like having our own Mossad 5th column ready to act on orders from above. Picture them, camo outfits, assault rifles, in front of the TV, crying along with Glen Beck waiting for the “secret signal” that will announce the “End of Days.” How we end up with strong ties between generations of Christian Zionists and Jew hating fanatics who planned the first “gas chambers” is an oddity of history. Call it “strange bedfellows.”

It's so easy to love the creative products from design company 100%. They all tend to share a whimsical take on a standard product idea that make each one uniquely fun.
The company's latest release is a followup of the Lamp/Lamp light bulb, a light bulb that M.C. Escher would love — the functioning socket on the bulbous part has been duplicated with a nonfunctional one, giving the impression that the bulb is magically lit without being screwed in. The new Lamp/ Lamp Table Base shows off the illusion of the tricky light bulb to the best possible effect.It's so easy to love the creative products from design company 100%. They all... more
