I guess spag is spaghetti, but what's bog? Bolognese (with apols to Porcy) MG Apols accepted. When I was in Portugal I was discussing about Bolognese with an irish couple. Actually, there is no traditional italian sauce with this name. We call it "Ragù" and it is done with chopped meat and tomato. Soft fry a chopped onion, a chopped carrot, a chopped celery in olive oil, add the meat and tomatoes. Top the spag with grated parmesan cheese and you have a spaghetti al ragù. Not really dietetic. Try this: 1/2 kg of mussels, garlic, 1/2 kg of ripe tomato and parsil. Put the mussels in a pot, let them cook until they are open. Remove the mussels from the shell, BUT DON'T THROW AWAY THE WATER IN THE POT. In a pan put a clove of garlic in olive oil, let it get blonde, remove it and put the peeled and chopped tomatoes in it. Instead of salt put in the sauce some of the water of the mussels after you have filtered it. Dose it with a tea spoon, it might be very salted. When the sauce is ready add the mussels, you may chop some of them. Top with chopped parsil. Really dietetic and tasty sauce. I put some red hot peppers with the garlic.

I agree with most of the posts. Exercize, drinking a lot of water, fruits, vegetables, ecc. My two cents: I cook the vegetables, like zucchini, broccoli or cauliflower with pressure cooker with a basket inside. Steam cooking left all the flavour and the healty stuff, minerals, ecc in the food. I don't eat white bread. I put on the tables at least a couple of big portions of vegetables or salad with the not so big main course, if I am still hungry I go for them instead of meat or pasta. I moderately agree with the issue carbos vs proteins. There are "good" carbos like pasta, rice and brown bread and "bad" carbos (aka "useless") like sugar drinks, junk snacks. So there are "good" proteins like fish and beans and "bad" proteins like red meat. A strictly protein based diet should last for a short time, unless you want a cholesterol problem afterwards. When you have to lose weight is fine, but good carbos are moderately necessary when you reach your correct weight. Eat carbos for breaksfast and lunch and avoid them for dinner is a good move. About fat, in general I use olive oil and avoid every other stuff like butter, ecc.. I personally think that all the Fat Free industrial stuff is unhealty marketing. Cooking for yourself is a winner choice compared to industrial made meals because you know what you are eating...well, most of the time at least.

Label's details please...at the vinyl forum we have to track any True Blue in order to map the Galaxy. BTW Don't panic. just a cheap 10 dollar reissue We presume that all originals are secretely kept in Area 51, Nevada. From our information there is a climatizated room at zero gravity for True Blues close to the hangar in wich they keep the flying saucer. The reason is that if you spin at reverse an original RVG 63rd label it broadcast an encoded ultrasonic message for calling back the aliens to the earth. The True Blue's that pop up now and then on eBay are fakes that don't contain the message. For your own safety we warn you not to buy any True Blue from this men

Was it a lighting?

Goering was the singer, a tenor I guess from his belly. The drummer was Goebbels.

Der Führer throw it away after Jesse Owens won all those gold medals at Berlin Olimpia Stadium.

Yeah, you beat me, if I saw your post before I could have had spare some of my few survived nerv cells.

Thanks. My german's skill is 30 y/o.

can someone translate this? Well, I hoped that some german speaking forum members could do it, but if you forgive an italian trying to translate german in english...more or less it sounds like this The Jazz legend from Wien Joe Zawinul is seriously sick. The 75 y/o Erdberger (I presume is it referred to the neighbour of Wien where Joe is born, or a nickname for a real Wien born) is recovered in Wilhelminen Hospital, thou not in danger of life. More or less.

According to Austria's National Broadcasting, ORF, Joe is seriously sick. from the ORF website

No Amboy Dukes' or Damn Yankees' in the collection. Ted will be disappointed.

Agreed, no Kenny G, or Norah Jones...

Sad news. Many people inconsciously lose the strenght to live and struggle when their long-life partners are gone. I hope this wouldn't be the case.

Jazz Messengers CARAVAN Riverside, mono. A quite vinyl for a Riverside's pressings...and a Killer line up, one of my fave Blakey's group!

Actually, as J.L. Borges wrote, all these books exist, the problem is where to look for them. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Library_of_Babel BTW an existing great short story.

Definitely less then NM PJ original vinyls, even if one dislikes the first CD of the set, it's a bargain. Obviously in my rig the original pressing sound better, but it's hard to find decent copies of Groovin Blue or Katanga! for less then 50$ each and overall the remastering of the Mosaic is fair. So now you don't have any excuse. Buy it!

Don't forget the Carmell Jones's great side on "Groovin' Blue", I would buy the set for it only.

George Harrison ALL THINGS MUST PASS Apple. Nice songs, but a overproduced album, "Spector's style". IMHO

Ok, I am writing a crime novel, one of the caracters lives in Berkeley. So I need some more accurate informations then Wikipedia or the web. PM me if you lived, or still live, in Berkeley, or you attented the University there during the late sixties. Thanks.

Genesis played for free at the Colosseo a couple of weeks ago, just five minutes walk from my house. I stayed at home. I can barely listen to them with PG, without him, no way.

I meet him once in his house in Rome, just after he got the Oscar. My tutor at university was one the biggest Antonioni's expert, so he reccomended me to Antonioni's assistant and the assistant reccomended me to Antonioni. I was supposed to help him to catalogue all the stuff related to his works: scripts, books, paintings, photos, ecc, for a museum that his hometown, Ferrara, wanted to build. I was sitting at the table in the kitchen with the Oscar between us. He couldn't talk anymore, but his eyes were bright and magnetic. It was a strange meeting, most of the talking were coming from a new young assistant and Antonioni's wife, but I couldn't loosen my eyes from Antonioni's gaze. I presume I was so excited and touched that I looked clumsy like a boy. However I never got the job and someone stolen the Oscar and other stuff one year later.

Don't forget Carl Lewis and the goodfellas at Santa Monica. Ah, yes, before someone start a nationalist fight, we have a lot of "greatest" of this kind over here in Italy. Just ask for the names if you're interested.

I've got only a cheap Polydor pressing of this Just cleaned this one up and it sounds . Same cover design as the Polydor but 'Marmalade' labels and Marmalade logo on front and back cover. At one time this copy belonged in the Thames TV library (hippy hotbed), which is sort of neat. Amazingly, after that tenure it emerged NM ! Don't think I paid more than £15 for it. The only 'Marmalade' record I have is "Streetnoise", (Brian Auger, Julie Driscoll and Trinity)...and I paid more then £ 15 for it. BTW No regret.
