'Game of Thrones' Star Sophie Turner Adopted Her Direwolf
Alright, so SPOILERS! If you aren't caught up on 'Game of Thrones,' simply admire this picture of Lady Sansa and her direwolf and then walk away. Otherwise, read on.
Alright, so SPOILERS! If you aren't caught up on 'Game of Thrones,' simply admire this picture of Lady Sansa and her direwolf and then walk away. Otherwise, read on.
'Game of Thrones' season 4 won't arrive on our HBO until spring 2014, and season 3 Blu-Ray releases won't hit stores until February 18, so what's a 'Game of Thrones' fan deprived of new content to do? Why, check out a fresh deleted scene from season 3 that features Tywin Lannister (Charles Dance) and Maester Pycelle (Julian Glover) in a stalwart battle of wits!
'Game of Thrones' season 4 seems to weigh heavier by the day, waiting until spring 2014 for a premiere that seems so removed from the recent Comic-Con 2013 appearance. Regardless, there can be no argument that HBO gave us its most visually impressive and jaw-dropping season to date this past year, so lets go back to celebrate 'Game of Thrones' season 3 with the full FX reel from SpinVFX!
The 2013 Emmy nominations have arrived and at first glance, it's more of the same. Of course 'Breaking Bad,' 'Mad Men,' 'Homeland' and 'Downton Abbey' seem to be dominating the drama category! Of course '30 Rock,' 'Louie' and 'Veep' are contenders in the comedy category! However, the big surprise with this year's nominations is that one of the most nominated shows wasn't even on TV at all.
Months before we have the Emmys or the Golden Globes to worry about, the annual Critics' Choice Television Awards streamed Monday night and released the full list of winners as chosen by the Broadcast Television Journalists Association. 'The Big Bang Theory' expectedly dominated in its many nominations, while the race for Best Drama tied and some surprising new stars were honored.
Our friends at the Ommegang Brewery have teamed up with HBO to create a series of beers in support of Game of Thrones. Launching in tandem with the season three debut, Iron Throne is the first beer in this new series.
Any 'Game of Thrones' fan would attest that the HBO series adapting George R.R. Martin's work naturally requires a mature touch, from its sexual intrigue to the blood flowing from every direction, but has one star had enough? New reports have emerged that one of the many scantily clad 'Game of Thrones' stars has sworn off any future nude scenes, but who among the cast made the surprising declaration?
It was another fun week on 'Game of Thrones.' Last night's episode, 'Walk of Punishment,' followed the pretty standard (which is not to say not awesome) formula of people talking blahblahblah, Tyrion jokes, more people talking, boobs, more talk--OH MY GOD WHAT?!!?!!???!!! WHAT JUST HAPPENED??! And then the episode is over.
We're big fans of 'Game of Thrones' here, so much so that we can't really picture our lives before it. How did we get our fantasy fix in the days before dragons and direwolves? 'Lord of the Rings'? Bah! The only thing that used to come close to the seat-of-your-pants, moment-to-moment excitement of George R.R. Martin's fantasy series is the "Choose-Your-Own-Adventure" novels of our youth.
We're just so happy we only have to wait one week for 'Game of Thrones,' instead of painful long months. We don't even care if there weren't any dragons in this episode -- it's more than made up for by Theon Greyjoy getting tortured in a basement. But we're getting ahead of ourselves. Here's a handy recap of last night's episode with GIFs!
Lest you think that once people make it big in showbiz, they just roll in dough, think again! Lena Headey plays Queen Cersei on HBO's wildly popular 'Game of Thrones' TV series but her bank account doesn't reflect her stardom. She is flat broke and literally has less than a $5 bill to her name. Why?
At this point we aren't even trying to hide the fact that we're basically foaming at the mouth for 'Game of Thrones' to pick back up on March 31st. Here is what is going to help us get through the day today. It's a

In order to diagnose
thyroid cancer, your doctor will ask about your
medical history and do a
physical exam.
Your doctor may check your vocal cords using a thin tube-like instrument that has a light (laryngoscope).
Your doctor may order a
CT scan or an
ultrasound to get a better look at your thyroid. If
your doctor thinks that the lump or nodule could be cancerous, he or she may
do a
fine needle biopsy of the thyroid gland.
You may also
have blood tests to check the levels of your thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), serum calcitonin, or carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA).
Other tests may be done before, during, or after your
treatment for thyroid cancer.
In some cases, an MRI, a chest X-ray, a CT scan, or a
PET scan may be done.
If you have
medullary thyroid cancer (MTC), a
CT scan of the chest and belly and a
bone scan may also be needed.
At this time there are not any screening tests for thyroid cancer that work well for people at average risk. Talk to your doctor about whether you need
to be screened for thyroid cancer.
People who have a family
history of medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) may want to have a
genetic test to look for a gene change called an RET
mutation. Before you have the test, it is a good idea to talk with a
genetic counselor. He or she can help you understand
what your test results may mean.

During semester 1 2015 the Moodle Media Collection will be available in two modes, Standard or theBox. By default Media Collections are created in the Standard mode however users have the advantage of opting into the theBox (Beta).
Standard Mode
When the Standard mode of the Media Collection activity is chosen, collections and galleries are created within Moodle and all files are uploaded and stored within Moodle. Uploaded files count towards file quota and are affected by Moodles file size limit of 200MB.
You may wish to test certain elements of your course such as assignments, quizzes or forums from a student perspective before you make the course available. You can add test students to your course for this purpose.
On this page you can find information about creating media collections in Moodle. A media collection is a tool that allows you to add image, audio and video galleries to your course, and also make possible a collection-as-activity, which students can contribute to and be assessed on.
This page supplies TELT Administrators with instructions for creating a Moodle teaching course site in myUNSW and releasing it to course instructors.
For permission (in both myUNSW and Moodle) to do this, apply to Academic Administration. Your Head of School or Associate Dean, Education, will have to sign off on your application.
This page presents details of the Learning Management System (LMS) transition from Blackboard Learn to Moodle, and the Educational Media Services (EMS) transition projects for Lecture Recording (Lectopia to EchoSystem) and Educational Media (UNSWTV to Media Distribution System).
Timeline for TELT transition projects
This timeline shows the transition and migration phases, key dates and support available for the Technology Enhanced Learning and Teaching (TELT) transition projects in 2013 and 2014.
The systems affected include:
The Lightbox Gallery tool enables you to create an image gallery in your Moodle course. When you set up a lightbox gallery you can enable commenting on images.
Getting started
Before you create your lightbox gallery, upload the relevant images to the legacy course files area. To simplify this process, zip your files before you upload them, then unzip them inside legacy course files.
Step by step instructions
You can use blocks to customise the look and functionality of your course home page. Think of them as shortcuts to critical parts of your course.
Getting started
There are several kinds of blocks in Moodle. View the following slide show to see a few examples of blocks used on Moodle course home pages.

Drakkar Noir by Guy Laroche
Drakkar Noir was my first cologne. In retrospect, I am glad it was. Because this cologne set a great benchmark of masculine fragrances. This cologne inspired me to get quorum, one man show, bijan, grey flannel and halston Z 14. This was my usual rotation. I love this dark oily, leathery feel to it. It earned me a nickname teflon hunk (boy I loved that :-) ) This is probably as powerhouse as it can get. This is as macho as it can get too. I dont know how Laroche came up with the concept of this cologne but he sure pulled off a winner. I now have a lot of cheaper alternatives of this cologne so I am not sure if I am going to buy it again but this one deserves all due respect for the sheer quality of scent.

I can't wait for this game. Good or bad outcome for Matt and the Reds there are a few things I want to see.
Will his stuff compete at the ML level. There have been guys with similar repertoires who succeed but usually they pay their dues for a while at the big league level before honing their "craftiness" to a level that works consistently. He gets a solid lineup to be tested on.
Maloney has the control but does he have the command to make his brand of stuff work? Not just strikes but strikes in the right zones against the right hitters? Between him and the catcher they have to know how to set up each guy and then Matt has to hit the spots.
He's been great keeping the ball in the park in AAA. Can he do that in the bigs?
A lefty!! My goodness its been a long time. That alone makes me want to see this. Seeing a lefty starter on the Reds is like spotting a dodo bird in the polynesians.
He's a hard working good guy who has earned a shot. Yeah I know that "blue collar" label usually means mediocre talent or pedestrian results or worse. It's in the same label bin with "scrappy" and "hard-nosed" and "hustler". I can't help but like guys like that, though. It's much harder to identify with uber talented jocks who have more athleticism in their pinkie than I do in my whole body. I love the myth of the hard worker who wrings out the last drop of ability to compete well despite lack of native talent. Note I said Myth.
The Reds need a break this year. They've played so well, they don't quit, they fight but come on...Votto and Volquez at the same time? After a decade of futility that seems a cruel twist by the baseball gods. It'd be a fitting irony if a soft tossing lefty came up and pitched really well - even just long enough to get Volquie back.
It's a good year to get a shot for Matt. The Reds are near the top in defensive zone rating. They still make some errors but I'll take a great zone rating and the errors over few errors and a poor zone rating anyday. The OFers can get to the ball and that should help Maloney. Sending a guy with his kind of stuff out there with last June's outfield would have been a merciless act. If he doesn't walk guys and keeps it in the park they'll have to earn their hits. One of the things I've enjoyed this year is far fewer "freebie hits" allowed on balls hit to the outfield.
Finally, it's a chance to get a better handle on what the Reds have in Maloney. A good showing or two - and trade discussions involving Harang or Arroyo could really heat up near the deadline.
I wonder if Matt will be taking the Idiotmobile up from LOU.
The Rally Onion wants 150 fans before Opening Day.
I was clamoring for him because I was tired of seeing the Reds mishandle Homer Bailey at Matt's expense. Homer shouldn't have sniffed a callup based on his performance this year. his talent teases, but the execution is inconsistent. Too soon, too fast. All Matt Maloney has done is succeed and progress. He's having an outstanding season and has very good peripherals to go along with his gaudy era.
That said, he could get slammed in his 1st MLB start, but he earned the chance to be the first guy called when the season started, and Bailey didn't.
Raisel Ghul, the Demon's Head
I do think that the HR rate is key. If he can keep it in the park, then he offers tremendous value as a spot starter/long reliever, working behind a staff of righthanded starters.
the post-PED era likely helps him a LOT,as does the fact that the Reds have coddled him; maybe he's had enough time to figure out most of the small stuff. on the minus side: ballpark size
If he follows Cueto in the rotation, he could prove to be effective. Soft tossing lefthander following a hard throwing righthander with all kinds of stuff and you might have something. I agree with those of you who said that his success will probably hinge on keeping the ball in the ballpark. Would like to see a lefthander in the rotation. Don't know if Maloney is the guy. Wish him the best.
Talent is God Given: be humble.
Fame is man given: be thankful.
Conceit is self given: be careful.
John Wooden
I'm glad that Matt is getting a chance to pitch this weekend. I'll be watching him on TV tomorrow night and I hope he has a great outing.
"I tried to play golf, but I found out I wasn't very good." -Joey Votto on his offseason hobby search
An MLB.com reporter asked what one thing Votto couldnt do. I cant skate or play hockey, Votto said. Well, I can skate ... but I cant stop.
Maloney has earned this opportunity and I hope he does well. I have my doubts but, you never know until you give the guy a chance.
"I fought because I understood and could not bear to understand, that it was my destiny -- unlike that of my father, whose fate it was to hear the roar of the crowd -- to sit in the stands with most men and acclaim others. It was my fate, my destiny, my end, to be a fan."
I think Maloney's lack of stuff has been overblown. His fastball hits 90, his changeup was described as a plus changeup, and he throws four pitches, all of which he can throw for strikes. His career AAA K/9 is 8.5 (higher than Homer Bailey's). He's not Cueto in the stuff department but he's not Jamie Moyer either.
I think the take from pretty much everyone on this thread is reasonable. Generally, it can be summarized as:
1. He's earned a look. If he doesn't get a look off of what he has accomplished this year, at his age and progression, it's a bad message to send to the rest of your minors.
2. His stuff doesn't project to set the world afire, but, hey, he might be plenty serviceable. Or not. Either way, we'll have a better gauge of whether he has a major league future and in what capacity. That's important.
3. New things are fun.
Glad he got the call. Looking forward to something new and shiny. Until the next new and shiny thing.

Wait a minute... what was all that 'one in a million' talk?
Hey! I'm NIcole and I'm looking to meet some new normal people. So if you are normal, well relatively speaking, keep reading. The time has come in my life when I have reached my late 20s and people started to promote social media as a dating avenue. Although I fought it at first, I have finally caved to this online dating trap. I haven't had much luck meeting someone in the real world who I'm compatible with and wants the same things in life as me, so I thought I'd give it a shot. I mean what the worst that could happen? You already promised that you're normal. So here it goes!! Well I am a fun, outgoing, affectionate, intelligent, caring, competitive, silly, sweet, and ambitious lady who is looking for a genuine gentlemen who is kind, trustworthy, smart, family-oriented, lovable, and that can make me laugh. That's not too much to ask, is it? I think the key to any great relationship is laughter, support, and loyalty. It is important for me to have a dependable mate that has a passion for life and would like to enjoy it with a great girl on his arm :) I am someone who gives their all in a relationship and sincerely takes pleasure in making others happy. Overall, no deception or dishonesty, being real and true to who you are is important to me. I am a teacher and coach, so a simplistic occupational goal for myself is to help others reach their own. It's an extremely rewarding job and I couldn't picture myself doing anything else. I enjoy going out for dinner and a few drinks or staying in to just lounge with some wine, cards, and a good movie. Please, no bad movies. When I have the time I like to watch box set dramas, episode by episode, like The Wire, Sopranos, SOA or new shows that I haven't seen yet. In closing, if you remember anything about me know that I am a genuine person who loves to make people laugh and enjoys a sarcastic goofball, like myself. "Big gulps huh, welp see ya later!" (clearly if you can't quote Dumb Dumber, need not apply) ;)

Lebanon announced this week that it could no longer absorb the flow of refugees fleeing the conflict in neighboring Syria. It has officially taken in more than 1.1 million Syrians—a number equal to one-quarter of its own population.
For the United States, that would be the equivalent of taking in more than 80 million refugees. And Lebanon is smaller than Connecticut.
Syria's humanitarian disaster is one of the worst since World War II, but it's often hard to grasp abstract numbers from afar–or how those numbers are straining the region. So I've framed the figures from the Middle East to what the numbers would be in the context of the U.S. population (323 million). Read More »

Gruet Blanc de Noirs (1.5 Liter Magnum)
Non-Vintage Sparkling Wine from Washington
Winemaker's Notes
#43 Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2011
The rich and toasty character of our Blanc de Noirs is balanced and superb. Aged for two-year minimum, the palate is developed and shows rich complex flavors. The amazing berries aromas and the creamy texture play a leading role and create a great finesse. Winemaker's Note: A fine salmon color, aggressive mousse and a lovely fruity wine with plenty of immediate charm and toasty aromas. There is also an explosive juicy flavor of raspberry.
Critical Acclaim
Wine Spectator - "Elegant and focused, with creamy vanilla and apple aromas and rich yet crisp flavors of baked pear and cinnamon bread. Drink now through 2014. 20,000 cases made."
Gruet Winery
Gilbert Gruet founder of Gruet Winery was born in Bethon, France in 1931. He grew up in a poor family, and began working at a young age. In 1952, Gilbert Gruet, along with his wife Danielle, dreamt of producing fine quality Champagne. Gilbert followed his heart and in 1967 created the U.V.C.B. (Union Vinicole des Coteaux de Bethon), a co-op in the village of Bethon.
In 1983, the Gruet family was traveling through the Southwestern part of the United States, and while in New Mexico met a group of European winemakers who had successfully planted vineyards In Engle, near the town of Truth or Consequence, 170 miles south of Albuquerque. The land was inexpensive and the opportunity golden. In 1984, Gilbert Gruet, whose Champagne house, Gruet et Fils had produced fine Champagne in Bethon, France, since 1952, made the decision to plant an experimental vineyard, exclusively planted to Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes. His children, winemaker Laurent and daughter Nathalie, then relocated to the great state of New Mexico to begin their American wine making adventure. View all Gruet Wines
About Other WashingtonView a map of Other Washington wineries
A few other appellations in Washington include:
Puget Sound, which grows some lesser-known grapes like Muller-Thurgau and Madeleine Angevine, is less known for quality wines and better liked for being a tourist attraction.
Red Mountainsub-appellation runs along the eastern part of Yakima Valley. It's best for red varietals and is constantly growing in quality and popularity.
About Other USEvery state in the United States makes wine. That's not to say that every wine is good, nor is every wine made from grapes. Hawaii ferments pineapples, while Connecticut makes wines from their well-known berry farms. But almost every state has at least one vineyard trying to make wine from grapes. Those who are most successful, beyond California, Washington, Oregon and New York are:
VirginiaWine in Virginia has come a long way since Thomas Jefferson unsuccessfully planted vinifera grapes at his home in Monticello. Our third president, known as the first American wine connoisseur, spent a good amount of time touring vineyards in France, hoping he could replicate the vineyards in Virginia. May not have been successful 200 years ago, but today, the Commonwealth of Virginia is home to over 150 wineries.
Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon are the most widely planted white and red grapes. Other success stories include Cabernet Franc, which does very well on Virginia soil, producing wines that are ripe and round, snuffing out the vegetal tendencies of this varietal. Viognier may be the next big white, making some lovely aromatic, yet dry, white wines.
New MexicoChampagne region after all), Gruet is now a nationally recognized wine. The wines are delicious and one of the best deals in sparkling wine. The family makes a range of wines - from the ethereal and efferevesant blanc de blancs to the more full-bodied blanc-de-noir to the slightly sweet demi-sec.
New Mexico is now home to nineteen wineries. While none are as large as Gruet, more winemakers are realizing that the warm day and cool night combination in the state has great potential for great wine.Other states worth trying include North Carolina, Texas, Ohio, Idaho and Michigan.

Alcohol By Volume GuideMost wine ranges from 10-16% alcohol by volume. Some varietals tend to have higher (for example Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon) or lower alcohol levels (Pinot Noir and many white varietals), but there is always some variation from producer to producer. Some wine falls outside of this range, for instance Port weighs in closer to 20%, while Muscat and Riesling are usually a bit below 10%.
Wine Style Guide
Light & Crisp
- Light to medium bodied wines that are high in acid and light to medium fruit. Typically no oak.
Fruity & Smooth
- Light to medium bodied wines with lots of juicy fruit, typically medium acid and medium oak.
Rich & Creamy
- Full bodied wines that have typically undergone malo-lactic fermentation and/or spent time in oak.

Red, White and Blue Mason Jar Luminaries
Activity DesignerJulie Kirkwood
73 Projects
What You'll Need
- mason jars (small)
- balloons (uninflated, in holiday colors)
- scissors (or pinking shears)
- glue
- foam (we used white)
- buttons, ribbon, etc.
- glitter (optional)
- battery-operated tea lights
How We Did It
The kids stretched the balloons over the mason jars in a red/blue pattern. This was great fine motor skill practice -- they really had to stretch them just right to fit over the jars. We used two balloons per jar (one red, one blue).
Next, we used our star-shaped cookie cutter (you can also draw them freehand, or trace a star puzzle piece) to make stars out of white sheets of foam. We cut them out, then painted them with glue and sprinkled them with glitter.

New Empress Valley
Empress Valley released an interesting new title today called St. Valentine's Day Massacre (EVSD-507/508/509). This is a three disc soundboard from the excellent February 14th, 1975 Nassau Coliseum gig with the entire show. Initial reports say this is in very good mono.
The packaging is the same as used with the other 75 soundboards from the label: a flimsy digipack in a slip case. There is a special extremely limited Murder Incorporated Edition limited to "only" 200 copies and priced higher than the already high priced normal edition.

I got today my copy of THAT'S ALRIGHT NEW YORK and I can say that quality is simply stunning.
I am not interested discussing about a fight between labels, I love all the good stuffs.
I can only say that this new GR is very far to be a cheap rip off….very curious about the forthcoming review and thanks to the CMR stuffs for the great job!VN:F [1.9.22_1171]VN:F [1.9.22_1171]Log in to Reply

No question about it. All these theatrics with this "high maintenance" label do not move me. Quite to the contrary. They detract from my listening experience. Sounds like Empress Valley caters exclusively to the elite and are infinitely touchy to a fault which is indicative of poor customer service . Thanks but no thanks.

I didn't get a free review copy of Having A Fit.
"In earlier reviews, you stated you didn't have conclusive evidence that Eel Grass was a copy label. Now, you seem comfortable in the fact that they are nothing but a copy label."
I think you may be confusing me with Bootledz, who know more about Eelgrass than me. I've always praised Eelgrass for making affordable very expensive tapes enabling poor collectors like me to obtain them. Re-read my Eelgrass reviews and you'll notice that in each one I point out they are a copy of an EV or MVR release.
"When other labels have released Destroyer, you sarcastically spat all over them." Which ones you have in mind? I reviewed Destroyer on non-label and Eelgrass and SODD. Which ones have I spat on?
And I nitpick with every release.
Godfather is prestigious because they have excellent packaging, excellent sounding tapes, and a phenomenal variety of artists they cover. They have issued amazing Bruce Springsteen titles, and are the only ones issuing Madonna shows (and I'm a huge Madonna fan). I'm not an engineer, but I've read they greatly improved Flying Circus. What's wrong with that?
This is very dramatic. We're up to forty-five comments now, more than any other post. I may have to pull this entire post down and completely ignore Empress Valley in the future. EV has such a heavy vibe, man. It's all good, Wilbur. You're acting as if EV were your label ;-)VN:F [1.9.22_1171]VN:F [1.9.22_1171]Log in to Reply
Reviewerwilbur saysNovember 19, 2008, 10:11 am
The point I was trying to make on the non label release was that they are re-RE-issues. When other labels have released Destroyer, you sarcastically spat all over them. When Empress has done re-issues you complained about them regardless of the sound quality of the release.
In earlier reviews, you stated you didn't have conclusive evidence that Eel Grass was a copy label. Now, you seem comfortable in the fact that they are nothing but a copy label.
To pick my own little nit if I may, Godfather can NOT possibly be releasing a REMASTER because they would need the original tape to be a Remaster (Someone will immediately comment upon reading this that you would need to have an original multi track to do a remaster). This is nothing but a re-equing which I don't see as making a label prestigious but that's my opinion.
As a few comments have pointed out here, you don't nitpick equally with every release. It's the way you write about EV that gets people making comments. Personally, I don't see comments or discussion on this site as bad things. I'm a little surprised you call it drama? Did that many people write in response to your comments?
Looking forward to your glowing review of Havin a Fit. Please don't forget to mention you you got a free review copyVN:F [1.9.22_1171]VN:F [1.9.22_1171]Log in to Reply

"IF Empress had done that, you would have torn them a new one."
You know what they say about making assumptions?
I praised the two no label Zeppelins in the new release section, not because they have a sticker, but because they are excellent titles. I should know because I listened to and compared them both.
Regarding Tarantura, I complained about their mastering on their tapes. They have since improved and are releasing sterling product. In fact, Having A Fit is an incredible release and will be reviewed soon.
I never mentioned Eelgrass spending tons of money on a tape. EV might, but Eelgrass are simply a copy label, which is a good thing.
Regarding Godfather, who says they're hiding anything? They're not saying it's their own tape. Of course it's sourced from the EV soundboard. My point is that they are not releasing That's All Right New York for a quick buck, but because it is a remaster worthy to be on their prestigious label. Also keep in mind Godfather is not a Zeppelin label. In fact Zeppelin is really a side project to their more relevant releases.
And I nitpick with every release, but only EV get upset by it. What suprises me is that St. Valentine's Day Massacre is the first time I've mentioned EV in months (except for posting some of my older Hotwacks reviews) and there is tons of drama. I did review the George Harrison releases on Mid Valley and gave them excellent reviews, but maybe I shouldn't have even mentioned this one.VN:F [1.9.22_1171]VN:F [1.9.22_1171]Log in to Reply

They need to lighten up and not take me too seriously. Nobody really reads this site anyway and is really irrelevant.
I think you greatly misunderstimate yourself if I may borrow that somewhat clunky phrase. We all DO read and appreciate your web site. As pharaoh wrote, when you use words like "high price dud" and pick every nit with EVSD and not other labels, people start to sense a bias… Didn't you use to complain about Tarantura titles all the time and yet now you've stopped?! You pretty much wrote glowing coming soon notices about the non label European LZ titles Destroyer and Southampton. The only difference is that this new re-re-issue has a STICKER on it saying they are limited to 30 copies!!
IF Empress had done that, you would have torn them a new one. Why the difference?! If it's all based on price OR the fact that you get review copies from some labels but not others, could you please disclose that important information in your reviews for fairness sake?
It's not so much that Eel Grass isn't hiding their agenda but that they are ripping off another label's hard work and as you wrote something that they originally spent tons of money on. Waiting five years to release Flying Circus on Godfather is NOT the same as releasing the tape source, it's still releasing nothing more than a copy. If they aren't trying to hide it and are proud of their work, why not stand up and admit it? Why does the five year gap make it OK? You telling me they spent five years in the studio re-doing it?VN:F [1.9.22_1171]VN:F [1.9.22_1171]Log in to Reply

For the asking price I don't think any flaw is trivial. But, it is my money and that is my opinion. And when it comes to my money, I am extremely biased and picky which is a right we all have.
Regarding EV, I've heard good things about their recent DVDs and the Chicago 1975 release, but again they are priced too high for my taste so I can't confirm nor can I write about them.VN:F [1.9.22_1171]VN:F [1.9.22_1171]Log in to Reply

Understood GS you are certainly entitled to your opinion after all reviews are nothing but an "educated" opinion..:))) Just wanted you to know how your comments like "high priced dud" and "act of hubris" were perceived and seemed out of place in this case. I can understand if you were commmenting on the EV disaster of the 73 MSG working tapes which were a fraud. But the flaws in the Nassau board are so trivial it seems like you are looking for reasons to bash this release and EV in general. Based on other responses I don't think I am the only one who interprets your comments in this case as possibly being biased and less then objective. In any case you do a great job so don't take my comments personally as they were were meant as constructive observations….VN:F [1.9.22_1171]VN:F [1.9.22_1171]Log in to Reply

In the strictest definition of the term, of course my opinions are biased. That is what makes it an opinion. You are free to disagree with me, but there is no such thing as objectivity.
Regarding my past statements, not all EV titles will be reviewed, not because they don't support my website, but because I simply can't afford to buy everything they produce. I can't spend tons of money on titles just because they're new and need to be reviewed. I hope this makes sense. Now if EV were to donate titles to the staff for review, then there would be reviews for everything.VN:F [1.9.22_1171]VN:F [1.9.22_1171]Log in to Reply

AA, related to the Godfather's newest 2/12/75 MSG title, "That's Alright New York" I doubt this is a multitrack but there was a fan produced matrix of this show by Blue Congo, a member, of the RO forum where he combined the EV SB with the excellent audience recording available from this show, which I have not heard, but is supposed to be incredible and supposedly blows away the raw EV SB. I am wondering if this is what Godfather pressed or whether they did their own Matrix? Maybe this is why the GF release sounds like a multitrack??? Any other opions??VN:F [1.9.22_1171]VN:F [1.9.22_1171]Log in to Reply
Reviewerpharaoh saysNovember 19, 2008, 8:24 am
I have no loyalty to EV and only buy selected titles because of the cost. Most of my 75 Zep SB's are on the Eelgrass label due to economics but I do buy selected EV titles when finances allow as I respect them for paying for and releasing new Zep titles which probably would stay hoarded so I am just a silver boot fan who appreciates their efforts. Your comments like "high priced dud" because they they did not complete the show by splicing in probably less then 30 seconds of a mediocre audience recording and your opinion related to RnR being shrill and EV not fixing this is an "act of hubris" sure sounds like you are expressing some type of anti EV bias at least to me….
Again not trying to flame or bust your stones but I think you are being a little less then objective in your comments related to EV titles.
Just curious you have made statments related to some EV titles that they would not be reviewed as they don't support this site. What excatly does that mean?? just curious…..VN:F [1.9.22_1171]VN:F [1.9.22_1171]Log in to Reply

"You will find that perhaps as many as two whole people out of hundreds call this exciting new source brittle or shrill."
I'm only speaking for myself.
"It might also help if you listened to more than one song from a questionable download."
I've gotten up to "Over The Hills" now, so that's three songs.
"Will your review be based on a download?"
What review?
Eelgrass fills a very valuable place in the Led Zeppelin collector's community. The can offer what most of us can't really afford. And again, Eelgrass have never hidden their agenda.
Yes, Godfather's That's Allright New York is the same soundboard from the EV Flying Circus, but it isn't a quick knock off. This comes five years after EV initially released it and the only reason why Godfather is issuing it is because it is a careful remastering project, not a quick knock off to get a buck.VN:F [1.9.22_1171]VN:F [1.9.22_1171]Log in to Reply

Perhaps, you need to take a break from classic lit to read some reviews of the show on other web sites and forums as well as your own. You will find that perhaps as many as two whole people out of hundreds call this exciting new source brittle or shrill. It might also help if you listened to more than one song from a questionable download. Will your review be based on a download?
I think it's pretty easy to criticize and no matter what Empress does with any source, someone will always find fault with something including packaging, etc. In my very humble opinion, I feel the tape was left "as is" so that the purchaser could eq it to their own taste.
Although I was only joking about Wallmart, I'm fairly certain anyone anywhere can purchase this release without too much trouble (although the limited edition version might be sold out).
Eel Grass is in business just like every other label. Their ONLY intention is to make money just like everyone else in a free market society. The reason that they can sell CDs cheaper is because they are ripped off from Empress (as I mentioned before) and have basically no overhead. People are certainly free to buy a knock off Gucci bag, but at the very least they should be honest about it.
So, you mean to tell me that Godfather's new release of That's Alright New York is NOT a copy of Flying Circus?? Nor is their releases of Royal Albert Hall Inital Tapes a rip off of the Empress release? Will you still be saying this when they continue to rip off Empress boards in the future?VN:F [1.9.22_1171]VN:F [1.9.22_1171]Log in to Reply

How am I bashing EV? My comment about the collectors in Osaka was an observation, not a complaint. If "Wilbur" is arguing that EV need to charge a premium to offset the copies that are going to be made, then perhaps EV should alter their marketing strategy for their releases.
Personally I buy most of the titles I review on this site just like anyone else, and for those titles that are donated I criticize just like any other. So I have no bias except to speak for the common collector, those who are not wealthy enough to drop hundreds of dollars on inferior product.
My concerns about this release are with the distasteful cover for the "Murder Incorporated" version and with the tinny cymbals that make the listening unpleasant.
There is such a heavy, bizzare vibe surrounding Empress Valley. They remind me of a dying corporation who are ultra sensitive about anything said about them. They need to lighten up and not take me too seriously. Nobody really reads this site anyway and is really irrelevant.VN:F [1.9.22_1171]VN:F [1.9.22_1171]Log in to Reply

GS, first you have an issue with the label artwork for the LTD version. I can understand that as some do find such images offensive..then you had an issue that EV did not splice in the audience for the preshow intro and a cut of about 15 sec's in the music..O.K. I know some are picky and want complete shows, with out digital clicks etc… but now you are complaining that RnR is shrill and EV titles are hard to find?? I don't hear it myself but then again I am sure my High Frequency hearing has been blunted by years of loud concerts with no ear plugs before I became wiser, so I will even give you that as sound quality is very subjective. But you are beating down EV about their limited availability in Osaka?? Not trying to break your stones but you seem to have a serious bias against EV? Could it be related to the fact, which you have stated many times, that EV does not support this site with comp titles for review?? I think this site is the greatest resource for boot collectors which has ever existed, and I appreciate yours and other hard work for no monetary return, but I worry that your obvious dislike for EV is colouring your judgement with respect to their releases…Do they put out stinkers now and then? sure but bottom line is they are about the only label sourcing unreleased Led Zep shows, in supurb quality no less, and I have yet to hear one where the mastering of these SB's was an issue IMHO. Again just my opinion but I think the 75 Nassau release is one of EV's best when you consider the quality of the performance and the superb sound. It is one even the casual fan will enjoy…. So seriously what gives with your EV bashing??VN:F [1.9.22_1171]VN:F [1.9.22_1171]Log in to Reply

Does Empress Valley sell in Wal Mart? I missed that.
I'm reminded of the character Cassandra from Homer's Illiad. She is the daughter of Priam and Hecuba, the King and Queen of Troy. The God Apollo fell in love with her and gave her the gift of prophecy. When she didn't return his love, Apollo cursed her so that no one would believe her. She is commonly offered as a figure of a mixed blessing.
Yes, Empress Valley release an uncirculated soundboard. But don't bother to work on the tape so it sounds very brittle.
Nobody is criticizing the label for finding these tapes. They are truly great to have. Yet if EV are concerned about recuping their loss, maybe instead of charging a premium they could maybe expand their market outside of Tokyo. I've read that collectors in Osaka can't find St. Valentine's Day Massacre.
Eelgrass are upfront about their intention, which is to offer these tapes for normal collectors instead of the super weatlthy. And for that, they are to be commended.
And Godfather don't copy the big releases of other labels, but are truly around for collector's sake and for the love of the craft. The only label I can recall who claimed one of the EV soundboards as their own is the Beelzebub CDR label, but nobody takes him seriously.VN:F [1.9.22_1171]VN:F [1.9.22_1171]Log in to Reply

Personally, I think it's quite an act of hubris to believe it's Ok for Empress Valley to "spend tons of money on this" but not expect collectors to be charged a premium price for it even as hundreds or perhaps thousands of people download it for free and other labels such as Godfather & Eel Grass rip it off while claiming that "their" versions are original and different.
But, nah, you are probably right. Empress should simply stop releasing these boards because oh maybe two people out of the hundreds or even thousands that downloaded it and who knows how many actually bought it (must be doing OK as I don't see it in the bargain bins in Wallmart) think it's not worthwhile or the package is not cool or it's missing the ultra cool must have band introduction.
I would pretty much call that a HUGE positive consensus.
So, Empress people if you are listening, why you don't you save the "tons of money" and stop releasing these now?! Collectors and music lovers, don't worry, I'm sure Eel Grass, and Godfather and all the rest will keep releasing new boards at very reasonable prices out of the goodness of their hearts and love for collectors.VN:F [1.9.22_1171]VN:F [1.9.22_1171]Log in to Reply

I think there is some confusion here. That's Alright New York on Godfather is a remaster of the February 12th, 1975 Garden tape. That will be reviewed in full soon. I'm not sure why you're mentioning it on the page devoted to the February 14th Nassau Coliseum tape. And while it is admirable to get a consensus on something, bootleg collectors are like Lutherans: put two together and you will get three opinions. I listened to "Rock And Roll" from St. Valentine's Day Massacre from a dowload (the closest I'll get) and found the shrill upper end to be annoying. I couldn't imagine what three hours of that would do to my eardrums.
While it is commendable for Empress Valley to spend tons of money on this, they should think about remastering the tape. Releasing it in this condition for the price being asked is an act of hubris.VN:F [1.9.22_1171]VN:F [1.9.22_1171]Log in to Reply

Astroidbelt -> I have compared both and Godfather sounds really like a multi-track. There is a large difference between sound. EV has very dry sound while Godfather is very "live" and especially vocal sounds like it was taken from a separate path. It reminds me Southampton January 22, 1973 tape, where there is very similar effect. When I heard this for the first time, I was shocked and searched for a reasonable explaination of it but after few songs I have realised that there is not the same soundboard tape used. And when I compared these, I have found that Godfather is a real upgrade and definitely sourced from a true multi-track (or I am completely deaf). Anyway, after all we need some words from the side of true experts.VN:F [1.9.22_1171]VN:F [1.9.22_1171]Log in to Reply

I feel like it's somewhat important to get a consensus on this release. I, for one, think it's great, and what bootleg community is all about.

Can't agree that this is just another show from 75 Eric…Sure the set list is similar but the performance is outstanding surely up there with the Seattle 21st show as best of tour and every Zep show is different in delivery. Jimmy is especially on this night and Roberts voice, while still a little hoarse, clears up nicely as the show progresses, much better then the MSG show two days earlier…. It is definately a Stereo SB as you can hear Jimmy's guitar pan left to right during "Dazed" but like most SB's from the 70's the stereo seperation is subtle not wide and defined like a multitrack…must have for any Zep fan….VN:F [1.9.22_1171]VN:F [1.9.22_1171]Log in to Reply

AA, that is completely untrue. Anyone who says differently is obviously just pushing advertising for their own label.
Empress Valley is the only one that has released original tapes for all of the 75 soundboards that are currently on the market. All other versions of the 75 boards that circulate are copies sourced from the original EV releases. This is a fact. If Godfather is releasing their own version of this board, it is 100% guaranteed to be sourced from a copy of the EV title. Expect a similar copy from Tarantura 2000, Wendy, and Eelgrass. But at least Wendy makes affordable titles, and Eelgrass is open about their releases being copies.
And, by the way, these boards are from the soundboard, not from multi-tracks. The only multi-tracks that exist for 1975 were made at Earls Court.VN:F [1.9.22_1171]VN:F [1.9.22_1171]Log in to Reply

The dream is turning into reality with Godfather's newest title, "That's Alright New York" of soundboard tape. I have compared it with original EV and one thing I must to say that EV is required to be trhown out from the window. Godfather's title sounds as it was taken directly from a multi-track recording, not just an usual soundboard tape. It remainds the official quality of "The Song Remains The Same" really. No doubt there will be a great and very representative review of this title very soon.VN:F [1.9.22_1171]VN:F [1.9.22_1171]Log in to Reply

Just got my regular release version of this show (nice tasteful black and white photo of Robert and Jimmy in action on the slip cover) and have to say this is an excellent quality recording. Nicely balanced but Robert and JPJ are slightly upfront. It is similar to the other 75SB's but to me resembles the Vancouver release sound wise and is warm with enough audience noise in the background to keep it from being dry….I have only listened to disc 1 here at work but have to say the band is hitting on all cylinders this night….Must have for all Zep fans!!!VN:F [1.9.22_1171]VN:F [1.9.22_1171]Log in to Reply

I never commented on the Early Days cover. I don't even own Early Days for that matter because I think the covers are stupid.
But since the Early Days cover was mentioned, maybe EV could have really done a better job if they photoshopped Led Zeppelin into the St. Valentine's Day massacre photo like the Early Days cover, or like Led Zeppelin II where they were included in the Zeppelin flight crew. Have Jimmy Page with a bullet hole in his head and Robert Plant with his head on his lap. Maybe Bonham could have his legs sawed off and John Paul Jones in the corner with a dog eating his fallen intestines. Now I would buy that just for the cover! Of course I'd just leave it lying around my room to scare my mom when she comes in to clean my room.
Or maybe EV could have just forgone the whole mafia motif and have a boring old Page and Plant photo on the cover, or maybe the picture from the concert where Plant is holding up the bra.
Some boot labels are extremely touchy and sensitive. I'm being silly. To quote and old tv show, "just say to yourself I should maybe just relax!" I really don't think my goofy comments are important and am astounded that anybody takes me seriously. And I'm happy you all enjoy the website.

So I think the gist of things is that the title & ltd edition cover, although tasteless to some, would be OK if this was a 2/14 Chicago show and the subtitle wasn't Murder Incorporated. EV is really mixing up the mobs here which is how historical annals get skewed and rewritten. After all, bootleg artwork is how I like to learn my history ;)
If ya don't like the massacre cover, just buy the cheaper non-limited version! (or not! and wait until someone fills the [what sounds like] really MINOR gaps with the AUD recording)
It's within everybody's right to nitpick, but it sounds like this new, exciting SB source is basically complete and quite far from a "dud" — that sounds like misinformation… I'll be quite happy to receive mine with historically inaccurate cover intact!
Personal nitpick — the titles/covers that worry me are the Nazi stuff [see T2K's Swastika]… Violence is sadly everywhere (especially between mobs/gangs in this case) but Nazism is a more touchy subject.VN:F [1.9.22_1171]VN:F [1.9.22_1171]Log in to Reply

I think the point is that BOTH events (Zepp show & the famous mob hit) took place on the same date in history. Unfortunately, you can't change where a historical event takes place (well, I suppose these days you could with photo shop) anymore than you can change the date of the event.
Sadly, since Zeppelin didn't play Chicago on Valentine's Day nor did a mob hit take place in NYC on that date nor did the mobs change nickname in the two cities, you just can't have it all.
Seems to me you are holding a double standard on the NASA photo from Early Days. I'm sure with careful checking (or someone just as nitpicky chiming in) the photo would be revealed to be from a specific date and style of space suits worn. Yet NOT all the Zepp songs on the CD are gonna be from that year. Why is that OK when you complain about the Valentine's Day photo not matching the correct mob or correct location?

No no, the limited edition has a picture from the Chicago mafia, but it is a New York show. And the title St. Valentine's Day Massacre is from an event that occured in Chicago, not New York. Yet Murder Incorporated is the New York mob and has nothing to do with the St. Valentine's Day massacre.
And the Early Days CD cover is alright because, technically, Led Zeppelin weren't in the NASA Apollo missions.

To quote from Takemi's review on Underground Uprising: "It is also a small regret that the soundboard did not capture the famous opening announcement saying 'The American Return of Led Zeppelin!' as well as Robert's interesting reference to 'Tangerine' after 'Dazed And Confused' is finished. However, the soundboard presents the great show in almost full length."
I admit I'm an uptight and obsessive Zep collector and having small bits like the "Tangerine" tease missing from the tape are infurating and make me wonder why the audience recording wasn't used to fill in the gaps.
But I will reiterate that the front cover of the Murder Incorporated version with the bloody corpses is in poor taste. (And Murder Incorporated were a nickname for New York mobsters in the 20s and 30s and have nothing to do with the Chicago St Valentine's Day massacre).VN:F [1.9.22_1171]VN:F [1.9.22_1171]Log in to Reply

Copyright laws differ between US, Europe and the Far East. Although releasing unauthorized music is illegal everywhere, there are some loopholes that allow the production of music when the recording is older than 25 years or so without paying copyrights. So I guess the reason why customs opened your package was routine. Possibly anti-drug control, etc.VN:F [1.9.22_1171]VN:F [1.9.22_1171]Log in to Reply

I'd dispute that (and I don't work for EV or anything)… It's actually the exact same price I paid for both "St. Louis Blues" and "Conspiracy Theory" but slightly more than "Snow Jobs" [though the limited Murder Incorporated Edition is pricey]. As an aside, the early releases on EV were EXTREMELY expensive! So its "cheap" relative to those times.
Of course it's true that Eelgrass will certainly copy it (and price it at about half the cost). But in a way, Eelgrass will have done basically zero work and done nothing to acquire the tape. And they'll never dig up anything new. Of course, it is their right to copy EV.
But I'd rather buy the original version from the people who dug this up. And at least some of that $ will go back into digging up something new in the future.VN:F [1.9.22_1171]VN:F [1.9.22_1171]Log in to Reply

While the price is indeed high, at least we have something new and exciting… not the same old re-churned tapes. Personally, I'd rather pay 2x for something fresh than regular price for old news. It's worth shelling out for the escape of these tapes and thus supporting future releases like this.

The NHL has fined Dallas Stars forward Jamie Benn $10,000 for cross-checking Edmonton Oilers forward Ryan Jones from behind in a game on Thursday night. With about four minutes left to play in the Oilers' 5-1 win, Benn skated up to Jones from behind and cross-checked him in the upper back. Jones, who was heading to the penalty box for goaltender interference, dropped to the ice and stayed down for about two minutes before heading to the locker room. It was a first-time offense for Benn, who was assessed a major penalty and a game misconduct for the cheap shot. The fine was the maximum for a first offender.

"The fact these organisms have survived in such a unique environment could mean they have developed in unique ways which could lead to exciting discoveries for us. This is the early stage and we now need to do more work to further investigate these life forms."
Some of the life discovered was in the form of Fossil DNA showing that many different types of bacteria live there, including a range of extremophiles which are species adapted to the most extreme environments. These use a variety of chemical methods to sustain life both with and without oxygen.
One DNA sequence was related to the most ancient organisms known on Earth and parts of the DNA in twenty three percent has not been previously described. Many of the species are likely to be new to science making clean exploration of the remote lakes isolated under the deeper parts of the ice sheet even more pressing.
Scientists believe organisms living in subglacial lakes could hold clues for how life might survive on other planets.
Late last year a British expedition to drill into Lake Ellsworth was called off after technical difficulties. A US expedition sampled a subglacial environment near the edge of the ice sheet but has yet to report its findings, and a Russian led project has sampled ice near the surface of a subglacial lake and has reported finding signs of life.

Nettlecombe Farm, Isle of Wight
In rolling countryside about half an hour's drive from the ferry port and 10 minutes from the sea, Nettlecombe Farm has been in the Morris family for more than a century. It is an excellent choice for those wanting to explore the island by car, foot or bike, or those looking for a bit of tranquillity on a working farm. Accommodation is in nine pretty cottages fashioned from milking parlours, stable blocks and other farm buildings, sleeping up to 54 between them, but even when full, you'd never know it. Families love it because it's a safe environment for children, who are actively encouraged to meet the animals, which include chickens, geese, turkeys, pigs, goats, rabbits, two reindeer (Comet and Dancer) and the alpacas William and George; there's even the chance to feed orphaned lambs in spring. There is also a grass play area, toddlers' play equipment, a big Wendy house, a sports area for football and weekly yoga sessions for both children and adults, as well as three fishing lakes stocked with carp, roach and tench.
The smallest cottage, Wren (sleeps up to four), costs £305-£830 per week (01983-730078; nettlecombefarm.co.uk).

BEL SAW Filter
Murata Electronics North America introduces a miniature Boundary Elastic Surface Acoustic Wave (BEL SAW) filter measuring 0.8 × 0.6 × .365 mm. This represents a 75% decrease in volume and 66% reduction in area compared to other filters, making it well suited for the mobile phone market. By adopting the Boundary Acoustic Wave (BAW) as the reproducing wave, Murata's planar-type component does not need a cavity and achieves the same high tolerance capabilities as traditional filters while guarantying the identical thermal-shock tolerance of semiconductors. In addition, the SAFAM series utilizes Ball Grid Array (BGA) terminations for mounting on integrated circuits (ICs), while current filters can only offer mounting on the printed circuit board, outside the semiconductor.

But, if he's managing two or more ports himself (the role Mike Phillips held down from the onset of things...) then he might be a bit more busy than one would think and things might be slipping through the cracks on him like we're seeing.
As for his sarcasm, it's more due to ire at all of this than anything else. He doesn't call out Phoronix for only one reason, I think- they've at least been tracking everything else they've done in the large for a while now in addition to this debatable piece of "news" on the site right now.
