  1. SPIEGEL ONLINE - August 21, 2007, 05:40 PM URL: http://www.spiegel.de/international/zeitge...,501145,00.html GLOBAL WARMING FEARS Norway's Moose Population in Trouble for Belching The poor old Scandinavian moose is now being blamed for climate change, with researchers in Norway claiming that a grown moose can produce 2,100 kilos of carbon dioxide a year -- equivalent to the CO2 output resulting from a 13,000 kilometer car journey. Now poor moose are being blamed for global warming. Norway is concerned that its national animal, the moose, is harming the climate by emitting an estimated 2,100 kilos of carbon dioxide a year through its belching and farting. Norwegian newspapers, citing research from Norway's technical university, said a motorist would have to drive 13,000 kilometers in a car to emit as much CO2 as a moose does in a year. Bacteria in a moose's stomach create methane gas which is considered even more destructive to the environment than carbon dioxide gas. Cows pose the same problem. Norway has some 120,000 moose but an estimated 35,000 are expected to be killed in this year's moose hunting season, which starts on September 25, Norwegian newspaper VG reported.
  2. fly up and sit in!!!!!!
  3. jack and ron busch(bopstop owner) are pals. he runs the cleveland jazz orchestra, and is a beast on trumpet/fleugel. aloc has seen him at the bopstop a number of times and had several long chats with jack about the music. the orchestra used to be at the bopstop every monday night. a stellar unit with beautiful arrangements. hoping this info isnt outdated.
  4. Man! Nehi orange and grape sodas, especially with a few peanuts added, is the bomb. Mogrubb hasn't seen Nehi drinks in a long time, didn't know they were still made. nehi lives. look here: http://www.hometownfavorites.com/shop/htfg.asp
  5. aldi grape soda having consumed aloc's quota of the hydroxyl radical type beverage for the day, he is now enjoying refreshing grape, which reminds aloc of the nehi orange pop drinking contest he entered when about 9 or 10 years young.
  6. this can bring about shock. please take very good care of yourself.
  7. 'happy sad' sits alongside my most treasured albums, and is one of the most intimate recordings i have ever heard, right beside sinatra's only the lonely and where are you and king cole's where did everyone go, and schubert's last piano sonatas.
  8. Unfortunately KBCS does not archive live shows. I have some of them airchecked on - blast from the past - audiocassettes. great. thanks

  13. "I really love the one he did with Henry "Red" Allen: The College Concert of Pee Wee Russell and Henry "Red" Allen which is also on Impulse! and shamefully never reissued on CD to the best of my knowledge." agreed, that's well-recorded and a treasure.

  15. SATURDAY, AUGUST 18, 2007 Ernie Krivda Jazz Ernie Krivda Jazz will feature the original compositions of EK with the assistance of Dominick Farinacci on trumpet, Bob Fraser on guitar, Mike Murray on piano Kip Reed on bass, and Carmen Intorre on drums. while missing his longtime master guitarist, bob fraser, who has serious health problems, krivda and his group performed a magnificent two sets, consisting of 7 selections. 1st set A Morning Dance The Jerry Turn (this was the All The Things You Are harmonic structure and it is in 3/4 time) Nocturne Blue Hokum 2nd Set A Suburban Humoresqe Beauty Passing The Song Of The Moor his playing has deepened in power and complexity so much over the years, and this group has worked together for most of a decade. if you ever get a change to hear ernie krivda, jump on it. farinacci and krivda's ensemble blowing remind one of the power and precision of the blakey horns. he has a couple items coming out in the fall on CIMP.
  16. duraband has always been a brand to ignore, but this little device has really been a most pleasant surprise.
  17. a durabrand mp3 cd-r player, for $16, lets aloc take part of his bigger than huge collection of broadcast recorded material (lazlake, wkcr, bbc, wgbh, wnur) along on trips in the car or on the bike or while walking or jogging or shooting hoops. aloc has used this one for longer than a year. the mp3 pro playback part is very adequate. the antiskip and durability of this device are remarkably good. aloc has dropped it a couple times and it still works beautifully.
  18. will they be archived? anyone programming satoko and niki must get a listen from aloc.
  19. tell us of your inexpensive gems: monster screenclean is awesome, keeping hdtv and computer screens clean and dustfree. a little bottle with a cloth perform magically.

  22. havent had scotch for quite some time. aloc doesnt require a single malt. recommendations? scotch drinkers here?
