Every Windows 2K and XP user should turn off the messenger service, even if there were no problems until now. This feature was almost never used, until spammers found a way to abuse it.

You need to copy the URL of the image and put it between IMG tags in your post. Like this: [img=http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B000006C5N.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg] This way the image is linked and not uploaded. It does not consume board server bandwith. If an image is not available online and you have it on your hard drive, you can upload it with the "File Attachment" function when you post a meesage.

Hey, check this free Photoshop plugin! This would have been nice if his name was "Clifforde" Enough for now. You can find more at Amazon.com by doing a label search on "32 Records"

(not that bad, maybe not by the 32 Records design department )
-
I found some. I leave the description to you

Where can one find pictures of the 32Jazz reissues? One good thing about the packaging (cover and awful black plastic box) is that these CDs sell very cheaply at second hand stores. Most shop owners think that these are low price reissues.

I have intermittent problems this morning when connecting to the Organissimo board. I get an error message saying that the webserver cannot be reached. Please vote in the poll above so I can see if it is only me or if there is indeed a problem with the Organissimo server

I agree with that analysis. But there are also differences depending on the studio where it was recorded and the engineer who recorded or mixed it. The sessions made by Jan Erik Kongshaug in Oslo, in the Talent Studio and later Rainbow studio were mostly responsible for the "ECM sound". It often suited the music very well (Jan Garbarek) but could be off-putting especially with piano recordings, where most people prefer natural studio ambiance instead of artificial church acoustics. The recordings made by Martin Wieland at Tonstudio Bauer in Ludwigsburg (Germany) sounded much drier. There is no doubt that almost all ECM studio sessions from the late 70's on are very well recorded. But it is the mixing and remastering that produced this special sound. The EQ'ing is an important factor. My impression is that they reduce the middle frequencies to produce a more brilliant and "round" sound, just like the Loudness switch on older amplifiers. All ECM recordings have this in common, independently where they were made. I don't like this attempt to beautify the music, it reminds me of the blurred image of face close-ups in Doris Day's films. As far as the music is concerned I find it difficult to accept an opinion where somebody likes or hates ECM generally, because they produce music from so many different styles. I particularly like the albums from the 70's made by US artists like Dave Liebman, Richard Beirach, Steve Kuhn, Julian Priester, Sam Rivers and others. Maybe because they are untypical for ECM. These albums are also the hardest to find, some of them never made it to CD. I don't like about ECM that they sell all of their catalogue at full price. Maybe it is the price for keeping everything in print.

Even if Mosaic found some old sets, would they be allowed to sell them officially? Some of their licensing contracts are limited in number AND in time.

This looks like a problem with the amplifier (receiver)

Jeez, I didn't know there were guys on ebay selling positive feedback (and getting free positive feedback in return): Positive Feedback + Amazing Recipe for Hummus ($0.99) "I will give you positive feedback very fast once you purchase this recipe" 3 GUACAMOLE Recipes~ FAST FEEDBACK!! ($0.99) "I love to give positive feedback to paying bidders, and I do so immediately after payment is received through Paypal!!"

According to the CNN article, the beating of his wife would have earned him "only" a year in prison and a $3000 fine. The life sentence is for the assault of the policeman and the spitting, " because of the possibility of transmitting a potentially deadly disease. "
-
The title of that 2LP-on-1CD sampler is very well chosen. If you only want one Sonny Stitt CD this is the one to get ... if you can find it.
-
That's only logical, since one can already get a life sentence for spitting on a police agent: Man gets life in prison for spitting (cnn.com)

Did you register for NO MORE TELEMARKETERS?
Claude replied to a topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
Frustrated man turns tables on telemarketers (cnn.com news) DULUTH, Minnesota (AP) -- An exasperated resident turned the tables on a company that hounded him with telemarketing calls, calling them more than 100 times in two days. Marc Plaisted said he started calling Minnesota Auto Glass after the St. Peter-based company's telemarketers called him up to three times a day -- even after he asked them not to. Plaisted had figured the calls would stop when he signed on to Minnesota's "do-not-call" list months ago. "I'm following the law and asking them to be taken off the list and they ignore me and then, on top of it, start swearing at me," he said. "That was where they flipped the switch with me and I said, 'Enough is enough. I'm going after you guys now.'" Plaisted started calling the Minnesota Auto Glass's Duluth office last Thursday, and placed more than 100 calls, he said. "I just called them every five minutes and let them know that, no, I don't have a crack in my windshield, because this seems to be something they are very concerned about," Plaisted said. A Minnesota Auto Glass manager in Duluth said Plaisted's number had been removed from its list and that proof of the removal would be put in writing.
