The Blind Boys of Alabama: Retrospective (Stem/Southbound)
27 Mar 2011 1
With this long-running gospel-cum-doo wop group due in New Zealand for a concert in April with Aaron Neville and Mavis Staples, this triple disc originally released in 2007 gets a timely re-release. The Blind Boys have been around in name since 1939 and recording since the late Forties -- a couple of their founders only died in the past decade -- and they extended their repertoire from... > Read more
The Thomas Oliver Band: Baby, I'll Play (Rhythmethod)
23 Mar 2011
As with his fellow Wellingtonian Darren Watson, Thomas Oliver is a finalist in the blues category of the International Song Writing Competition to be judged in April 2011. The song is Goin' Home - which kicks off this rootsy, bluesy and alt.country-tinged album -- and the video of it released a year ago was named among the top 30 internationally at the Rushes Soho Shorts in London, and it... > Read more
The Low Anthem: Smart Flesh (Nonesuch)
21 Mar 2011 2
Sin and death and guilt; archaisms like "apothecary", "Gatling gun" and "player piano"; harmonica, pump organ, violin, saw and cello; whiskey and gin; recorded in a freezing cold room in winter . . . all the right elements would seem to be in place for more rustic music grounded in an older America from educated urbanites. Smart Flesh is another mood piece of... > Read more
Asian Dub Foundation: A History of Now (Cooking Vinyl)
21 Mar 2011 1
Nobody would thank you for being so politically incorrect as to observe that much of this is just a politicised Asian-British version of nu-metal: lots of raging against the machine; rock guitars colliding with white-knuckle rap (with tabla); plenty of socio-political sloganeering (the title track which yells "you can't download me" and "living the history of now", which... > Read more
The Strokes: Angles (Sony)
21 Mar 2011 1
When the Stokes out of New York invaded the airwaves and pop glossies a decade ago they came with an advance guard of salivating journalists and those who heard them as leading a ragged garageband revival by conjuring up the late Sixties/Seventies spirit of the Big Apple by referencing the Velvet Underground and dirty arse art-rock. The Strokes were, put another way, necessary for American... > Read more
Matt Langley: Featherbones (Hometown)
18 Mar 2011
Langley's rootsy folk-cum-alt.country EP Lost Companions of 2007 – recorded in Wellington – announced a mature lyricist and a singer with a delivery like the best Americana artists (James McMurtry particularly) with a little Dylanesque drawl. It went past most, and this debut album is doing the same with few mainstream media reviews, despite it including 7.13 for which he won... > Read more
Papercuts: Fading Parade (Sub Pop)
18 Mar 2011
Although San Francisco's Jason Robert Quever – who is for most purposes Papercuts – opens this fourth album with the drilling indie.pop of Do You Really Wanna Know and the dreamy Do What You Will, which puts them in the lineage running from the power pop of Shoes in the late Seventies through the shoegaze dreamscapes of Neil Halstead's Slowdive and to his more... > Read more
Imelda May: Mayhem (Universal)
16 Mar 2011
Irish singer Imelda May Higham started her profesional life singing folk, rock'n'roll and rockabilly but has made her way towards saucy, raunchy old-time jazz while losing none of her original passions. Which is why on the recent Jeff Beck tribute to Les Paul she could weigh in with everything from rockabilly to haunting torch singing, so much so that you could have been mistaken for... > Read more
Marianne Dissard: L'abandon (Dissard/Rhythmethod)
14 Mar 2011
Although her impressive debut album L'entredeux took her to small audience (she sings in French) this Tucson-based singer and film-maker is rather more edgy on this outing which might win her an even bigger following. Dissard -- interviewed here and more recently answering our Famous Elsewhere Questionnaire here -- lets some of the Americana influences of the previous album take... > Read more
R.E.M.: Collapse Into Now (Warners)
14 Mar 2011 1
Thirty years into a career and with this, their 15th studio album, it seems a bit rich for REM bassist Mike Mills to say this one is somehow different with really beautiful slow songs, some nice mid-tempo ones and three or four rockers. That pretty much describes every REM album in the past two decades, and for this one -- despite them talking it up, and Michael Stipe's lyrics even more... > Read more
Various Artists: Late Night Tales; Midlake (LateNightTales/Southbound)
11 Mar 2011
The Late Night Tales mix-tape series continues with this especially interesting and quite lovely collection put together by Midlake who had a Best of Elsewhere 2010 album with The Courage of Others (and were instrumental in John Grant's Queen of Denmark, also a winner that year). The chief feature here -- aside from the coherence of the acoustic and post-folk theme -- is how it will... > Read more
Teddy Thompson: Bella (Verve)
11 Mar 2011 1
This 35-year old son of famed British folk-rockers Richard and Linda follows his own path. He took his powerful, sensitive voice to excellent originals on his second album Separate Ways in 05, followed it up with an album of country covers Upfront and Down Low (which boasted the stunning sole original in Down Low) then unveiled the exceptional album of mature pop and alt.country A Piece... > Read more
Beady Eye: Different Gear Still Speeding (Liberator)
10 Mar 2011
In one of life's great ironies it was, of all people, Ringo Starr who enjoyed the greatest chart success with a string of chart singles in the wake of the Beatles break-up. And who would have reckoned on Dave Grohl's subsequent career after Nirvana. So perhaps we shouldn't be surprised that Liam Gallagher is the first Oasis brother out of the gates since the band split, or that this should... > Read more
Left Lane Cruiser: Junkyard Speed Ball (Alive/Southbound)
9 Mar 2011
Judge a band by its cover? Sure, why not? Here the raucous blues-rock duo of guitarist Freddy J IV and drummer Brenn "Sauasage Paw" Beck out of Indiana are almost horizontal in a bathroom sharing a bottle of Jameson whisky on the inner sleeve of the cover, and the album features tracks with the titles Lost My Mind, 24HR, Weed Vodka, Cracker Barrel, Pig Farm, Road Again and At The... > Read more
The Baseball Project: High and Inside Vol. 2 (YepRoc/Southbound)

A power pop supergroup of sorts -- Steve Wynn (Dream Syndicate, Gutterball), Scott McCaughey (Fresh Young Fellows, REM), Peter Buck (REM) and Linda Pitmon (Golden Smog) -- here continue their passion for baseball after their similarly conceived debut project Frozen Ropes and Dying Quails.

Buffalo Tom: Skins (Scrawny/Southbound)
7 Mar 2011
When Boston band Buffalo Tom disappeared for almost a decade in the mid 2000s it would be hard to argue they were in the "much missed" category for most people. But their loyal core had their albums Birdbrain, Let Me Come Over (which included the wonderful Taillights Fade) and Sleepy Eyed as cornerstones in their collection. Their return in 2007 with Three Easy Pieces confirmed... > Read more
The Tenderizers: Love Me Tender (Lefthand Gun)
6 Mar 2011
With a vocal style which brings to mind Bill Lake's engagingly fragile delivery and narratives, singer-writer here John Newton can boast some considerable credentials: he has a PhD from Melbourne and works at the Stout Research Centre for New Zealand Studies in Wellington. He's hardly po-faced though: on his Facebook page for Religious Views he has written "aw c'mon" and his Political... > Read more
Johnny Cash: From Memphis to Hollywood Bootleg Vol II (CBS)
6 Mar 2011
Following Cash's Personal File: Bootleg Vol I -- and of course the Dylan bootleg series, Kris Kristofferson's Austin Sessions and demoes, George Jones' Great Lost Hits and various Willie Nelson issues of early demos and sessions -- there is no shortage of material for scholars researching these artists. This Johnny Cash double disc from his own archives places him in the context of the mid... > Read more
Jeff Beck: Rock'n'Roll Party (ATCO)
6 Mar 2011
Even those who have been his most ardent champions concede that guitarist Jeff Beck has always taken his own wayward path, often following a great album with an indifferent one. He may lack career focus -- he takes time out frequently -- but his recent years have seen him acclaimed for the consistency of his live performances, and the petty terrific album recorded live at Ronnie Scott's.... > Read more
An Emerald City: The Fourth (Banished from the Universe)
4 Mar 2011
After their impressive self-titled EP in '08 then the expansive, cinematic debut album Circa Scaria the following year, this Auckland-based band which brought together psychedelic space-flight guitar rock with touches of world music (Middle Eastern and North African from violinist Felix Lun, plus sitar, oud, lute and odd percussion from Rob Croft and Ede Giesen) relocated to Berlin.... > Read more

|Biggio to retire at end of season
|Written by Admin
|Tuesday, 24 July 2007 08:22
Biggio, who reached 3,000 hits in June 28, was scheduled to hold a news conference before the Houston Astros hosted the Los Angeles Dodgers and the purpose of the announcement was to announce his retirement plans, a person familiar with the arrangements said. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because he wasn't authorized to speak publicly.
Biggio's decision was reported earlier Tuesday by MLB.com.
The 41-year-old, in his 20th major league season, is batting .247 with 24 doubles, five homers and 31 RBIs. He began Tuesday with 3,014 hits, six shy of tying Rafael Palmeiro for 23rd place.
Biggio has played his entire major league career with the Astros, becoming the longest-tenured player in franchise history. He is the only player in major league history with 600 doubles, 250 homers, 3,000 hits and 400 steals.
Biggio's 3,000th hit came one day shy of the 19th anniversary of his first career hit, a single off Orel Hershiser on June 29, 1988.
During his two decades with the Astros, Biggio has become known in the city as much for his charitable work as for his play. He has been the national spokesman for the Sunshine Kids Foundation, which helps children with cancer, for more than a decade.
He hosts an annual party for the patients at Minute Maid Park and puts on a golf tournament each year to raise money for the foundation. Sunshine Kids officials estimate that the tournament has raised more than $1 million for the cause.
AP Baseball Writer Ronald Blum in New York contributed to this report.

Report: iOS 8 Maps to gain public transit directions
Apple's Maps application will boast improved data and public transit directions in its iOS 8 incarnation, 9to5Mac reports. It is expected that public transportation options will be "deeply integrated" into iOS 8 Maps, with train, subway, and bus data, and will first be introduced for major cities, with other locations added over time. Enhanced data will also introduce new points of interest and new map labels, while improving reliability. Apple's 2013 acquisitions of HopStop, Embark, and BroadMap have likely aided the addition of the new data.
The report also claims that Apple is working on augmented reality for future versions of iOS, to appear in "the coming years." This feature would use the iPhone's compass to see nearby points of interest onscreen.

How much do you love bacon? Enough to buy a $120 egg-and-bacon roll?
UPI reports a restaurant in Australia is offering a roll for that price as part of Bacon Week.
How much do you love bacon? Enough to buy a $120 egg-and-bacon roll?
4Fourteen, a restaurant in Surry Hills, will have the breakfast sandwich on its menu for just one week, according to The Sunday Telegraph, Sydney.
Why the high price?
The sandwich reportedly featured award-winning bacon from Slade Point Meat Specialists in Mackay, Queensland, a pan-friends duck egg, semi-dried and smoked gourmet truss tomatoes, duck foie gras, caviar, creme fraiche, shaved truffles and English cheddar, squeezed between a handmade brioche bun, UPI reports.

Of the soloists, the soprano was a standout, the tenor weak, the chorus very tight and produced a beautiful sound. The pace was incredibly fast.

I really enjoyed the opening piece and most of the Mozart piece. The middle one was very painful to hear... I almost walked out prior to the intermissions because of that...

The music is eternal, of course, and the performers were competent and brought energy to their parts. I just wanted to note that GoldStar's tickets were well situated for excellent enjoyment, about halfway back from the stage on the orchestra...continued

The event was quite nice, although the performance itself was somewhat pedestrian. The acoustics were also borderline. However, you can't go wrong with Mozart's Requiem.
Mozart: Requiem
Merryman: Jonah
Mendelssoohn: Hebrides Overture
Arianna Zukerman, soprano
Heather Johnson, mezzo-soprano

Few choral works are better known than Mozart's Requiem. Paired with the dramatic imagery of Marjorie Merryman's Jonah and the exciting Mendelssohn classic, this concert is not to be missed.

As America becomes more complex, fewer Americans understand how things really work.
Too much is taken for granted. Too much is taken on faith.

Societal and economic decay, even collapse may well be logical results of the course being plotted.

Hot fudge sundae
I have a special birthday coming up in January, and I have been thinking about what I want.
A hot fudge sundae!
I haven't had one in years, but I used to love them. Not just ice cream with chocolate syrup, but a true, warm, fudgy hot fudge sundae.
Who serves a good one? We live in Center City but I will travel to Jersey, Jenkintown, wherever.
After all, this is important.
Your closest option is probably Franklin Fountain. I think they even serve one on top of a fudge brownie.
re: Philly Ray
+1 Franklin Fountain. I still think and drool over the one I ate this past summer there called the Mt. Vesuvius and their other sundae called the Stock Market Crunch.
re: paychecktoday
+1 Franklin Fountain for the real-deal hot fudge. Other places tend to have goop they call fudge that's too sickly sweet for me. When I'm not in the mood for traditional vanilla, coffee ice cream makes the sundae a mocha adventure.
Happy birthday!
re: Seeker19104
+2 for franklin fountain
I love the fudge at Franklin Fountain, it isn't overly sweet, and it is thick and rich. That's where I'd go.
Since you are turning 29, I am sure you want to find a special place to celebrate. In the suburbs I am fond of the atmosphere at the Charcoal Pit in Wilmington. You can see a picture of their hot fudge sundae here. http://www.roadfood.com/Reviews/Overv...
Other places to consider, Nifty Fifties (in the Northeast or in Bensalem). Chinks Steaks in the Northeast as well ( you could be doubly bad and have a cheesesteak and a hot fudge sundae)
Since its in the winter, its harder to suggest places like Freddie Hill or Merrymead..
re: cwdonald
Charcoal Pit has very good sundaes. Ray's on Germantown Pike in Plymouth Meeting serves a similar ice cream menu based on local HS.
Go for the ice cream, not for the food for both places.
re: paychecktoday
Gotta be the Franklin Fountain. The brownie sundae and the mint one are both very good. Happy Birthday ahead of time!
re: JugglerDave
The Tubby Turtle sounds amazing. I just might have to try all of these places. The difficult thing will be waiting until January!
Glad to hear from you, JugglerDave. Hope you and the Bride are well.
I would also recommend Zwahlens in Audubon. I live a few blocks from them and they have never disappointed. Also have great chocolates and candy apples.
Third for Zwahlens. Not previously mentioned is that they make their ice cream daily - on busy days they'll sometimes need to serve it right as it comes out of the machine. I'll also agree that the Tubby Turtle is awesome, but I think my favorite is the Apfel Crisp, especially this time of the year as it goes well with the season. But their waffle + ice cream good, as are the crepe, as is, at times, just plain old vanilla...
Fourth for Zwalens! Had a slice of pumpkin cake with Vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce on Saturday. Sigh....Bliss!
re: lauracohenromano
Gotta have a glass dish. Been getting hot cocoa at Starbucks lately and it is very hard to convince the staff to provide a ceramic cup. Some things are worth fighting for.

Milwaukee (CHN Online) - Cherie Clements recalls standing on the sidewalk outside Affiliated Medical Services in Milwaukee escorting women seeking abortions inside the clinic. Cherie was in her late teens and early 20s and thought she was advancing women�s rights by helping the pregnant women pass the gauntlet of pro-life supporters so they could obtain an abortion.
Catholic Herald (www.chnonline.org)
10/20/2009 (5 years ago)
Published in Marriage & Family
Last week, some 15 years later, Cherie stood on the same sidewalk in front of the same clinic, this time accompanied by her 10-year-old son, Lorenzo, dressed as a �gift from God� with a sign on his back that read, �Smile, your mom chose life.� They were part of the 40 Days For Life vigil praying for an end to abortion. Mother and son will continue to be there weekly through the vigil�s end, Nov. 1.
Bubbly and energetic, Cherie looks upon her about-face on abortion as �a weird twist of fate,� but one brought about by her own leap of faith.
Cherie was raised Catholic and attended Catholic schools all the way through high school. She began at Holy Family School, Cudahy, transferring to St. Veronica School, Milwaukee in seventh grade. She was a member of the 1993 graduating class at St. Thomas More High School, Milwaukee.
Catholicism was a core component of her family�s life, but in high school, she said she was also attracted to the idea of women�s rights.
�I think a lot of people in high school are interested in faith, but some become lukewarm in their faith. I was one of those people who loved to read, loved poetry and to explore ideas. I went the opposite direction (of faith) and had a cynicalattitude (toward faith),� she said, explaining how she was drawn to the National Organization for Women after hearing a speaker promote women in the workplace.
�Pretty soon I started getting involved in all kinds of things, reproductive rights, the education of young girls. That became my cause and when I was 16, I began helping women at the abortion clinics,� she said.
Cherie estimated that she served as an escort at the clinic a dozen times, all the while, believing she was providing a valuable service to people in need.
Her viewpoint began changing when Cherie first saw her son on an ultrasound photo. She had married at age 21, while still a college student, and was surprised to see that her unborn son was more than the blob of cells that she had believed the unborn to be.
�It was the first time I had seen an ultrasound, and I was like �Wow, look at this, the heart, his eyes.� I understood the reality of what I was going through and it became very real,� she said.
Ironically, when she was five months pregnant, doctors believed her son had a serious kidney problem �and the doctor told me, if I had been earlier in my pregnancy, he would have suggested I not have this child.�
Cherie remembers spending the remaining months of her pregnancy fearing her child would face a life of kidney dialysis and other health problems. Yet, Lorenzo was born completely healthy with two functioning kidneys.
�(His kidneys) were just slow in developing, but now he�s a normal, healthy kid running around and all my fears were for nothing,� she said.
Cherie had fallen away from the Catholic Church in her late teens, but became more interested, at the encouragement of her husband, when she became pregnant. Yet, their marriage ended when Lorenzo was an infant and about the time Cherie was looking for a day care for him, a friend invited her to a Lutheran Bible study.
The church, which hosted the Bible study, also had a day care and Cherie felt she had found a spiritual home as well as a school for Lorenzo.
Cherie was an active member of the Lutheran church for several years and Lorenzo attended school there. As a Lutheran, she said she became invigorated by faith and looked for ways to put her faith into action.
When she returned to the Catholic Church about two years ago, she brought with her that desire for outreach.
Again, it was a man who led Cherie back to the Catholic Church, this time her husband of nearly two years, Ryan Clements. A native of Mauston in the La Crosse Diocese, Ryan was in Milwaukee attending a dance at the Clarion Hotel when he met Cherie. One of eight children in a Catholic family, Ryan wasn�t interested in accompanying Cherie to the Lutheran services, she explained, �and pretty soon, we were back at my dad�s parish, St. Martin of Tours.�
The couple was married at St. Patrick Parish, Mauston, and honeymooned in India, in part to be close to the roots of one of their spiritual role models, Mother Teresa.
At St. Martin, where Lorenzo now attends school, the family is involved with the pro-life ministry.
�We decided to reach out to the community and get the parish engaged,� said Cherie of their efforts to get people involved in pro-life issues. They coordinated Project Heartbeat where parishioners adopted a small, rubber fetal model, took it home and kept a journal of their experiences with the model. Ryan and Cherie also put together a �Project Heartbeat Cook Book,� with healthy vegetable dishes and stories celebrating life that are �good for the heart.�
The book�s introduction described it as �a project to awaken the hearts of our parish to the smallest members of our family, the unborn.�
Ironically, this pro-life couple has encountered fertility problems as they seek to expand their family.
�We had it in our minds to make our marriage a testament of our faith and we hoped for a big family,� she said, describing the fertility issue as a �cross to carry.� She acknowledged that fertility clinics are tempting, �but we made a decision not to even be tempted by them. There are not good moral implications and there are risks.� She noted that if they don�t have a biological child, she is open to adoption.
Even though the struggle with infertility has been stressful, Cherie said she feels she leads a blessed life and hopes she can be an example to others.
�Sometimes you have to take a leap of faith and assume that God will work out the rest. To switch careers, to have a son, to get married � those were all leaps of faith. I feel very blessed to have a good life. I consider myself blessed every day, even though we are going through some struggles.�
