Lazarus May 04, 2013 - 09:43	Some good news at last!— Too-Big-to-Fail Takes Another Body Blow by Matt Taibbi RollingStone May 1, 2013 Minds are changing on Too Big to Fail. A month ago, it was just something in the air. Now, it looks like we're headed for a real legislative confrontation. And man, is the finance sector freaking... Love this song soooo much!! [ Reply ]
unclehud Apr 28, 2013 - 20:25	You know, we've all heard this song a million times -- hell, maybe more than that -- but tonight the lyrics hit me very differently than they have before. Guess that means I really stopped listening to it 985,000 times ago, but this is a GREAT song. Do I already have it at 10? No? Well, let's get that fixed, shall we? [ Reply ]
Lazarus Apr 28, 2013 - 20:20	Volume is wayyyy up... love this song... Everything Is Rigged: The Biggest Price-Fixing Scandal Ever by Matt Taibbi from RollingStone a few days ago Conspiracy theorists of the world, believers in the hidden hands of the Rothschilds and the Masons and the Illuminati, we skeptics owe you an apology. You were right. The players may be a little different, but your basic premise is correct: The world is a rigged game. We found this out in recent months, when a series of related corruption stories spilled out of the financial sector, suggesting the world's largest banks may be fixing the prices of, well, just about everything. You may have heard of the Libor scandal, in which at least three – and perhaps as many as 16 – of the name-brand too-big-to-fail banks have been manipulating global interest rates, in the process messing around with the prices of upward of $500 trillion (that's trillion, with a "t") worth of financial instruments. When that sprawling con burst into public view last year, it was easily the biggest financial scandal in history – MIT professor Andrew Lo even said it "dwarfs by orders of magnitude any financial scam in the history of markets." That was bad enough, but now Libor may have a twin brother. Word has leaked out that the London-based firm ICAP, the world's largest broker of interest-rate swaps, is being investigated by American authorities for behavior that sounds eerily reminiscent of the Libor mess. Regulators are looking into whether or not a small group of brokers at ICAP may have worked with up to 15 of the world's largest banks to manipulate ISDAfix, a benchmark number used around the world to calculate the prices of interest-rate swaps...

Lazarus Mar 28, 2013 - 18:46	Everybody in my church be dancing... this is one of the best songs ever... love it... love Radio Paradise... Cruel and Unusual Punishment— The Shame of Three Strikes Laws by Matt Taibbi this will be in the April 11 issue of RollingStone And it isn't just in California, but all over the country, where there are countless instances of outrageous and brutal mandatory sentences for relatively minor crimes... Another result was that instead of dealing with problems like poverty, drug abuse and mental illness, we increasingly just removed them all from view by putting them in jail. It's not an accident that so many of the most ridiculous Three Strikes cases are semicoherent homeless people or people with drug problems who came from broken homes. It wasn't a cost-efficient way of dealing with these issues – in fact, in California at least, it was an insanely, almost criminally expensive burden on taxpayers – but it was effective enough as a way of keeping the uglier schisms of our society hidden from view...

The Pretenders have a bunch of other good songs ya know. Yes they did. "Precious" for example, is about as rollicking a first cut/first album from any group as you'll ever find. That first album is one of my desert island discs, and "Learning to Crawl" might be on that list too. But don't blame Chrissie for what FM radio and the soulless corporate Morlocks did to her music. "Circumstance beyond my control," as she says, but they will fall to ruin one day. [ Reply ]

The purpose of the implementation of the "PSD button", may have the good intention of satisfying the various sensibilities of listeners simultaneously, but can detract - the receiver - and create a false sense of what is "the receiver" (the listener) that influences and modifies programming at your pleasure, when we know that is not, nor should it be. For me, generally I do not use the "PSD button", do not even think to use it, because what really interests me is the global perspective programming , the expectation , the surprise factor, the changes of pace, changes of style, and the conjunction, the "intertwining" of the songs together, but this is the true spirit RP Station. And it works, whether we like it more or less like, this or that moment of RP-airplay. Is that the "PSD button" like be harmless, but as its use allows use private constantly by each receiver, I think the loser is the receiver. However when it comes to music IMO, repitition is never good, repitition is never good, repitition is never good......... [ Reply ]
