“The plus raw power is still present” according to the scouts at Baseball Prospectus, and Nottingham did launch 20 long balls in 841 plate appearances during his two years with Biloxi. He did make some significant strides in cutting down his strikeouts last season (from 30.2% to 22.6%) while also boosting his walk totals. Scouts at MLB Pipeline give him a 40 grade on the 20-80 scouting scale, meaning that ultimately he may be best suited for a backup role long-term. Because of his penchant to swing-and-miss, his hit tool projects to be well below average at the major league level. 223 batting average while striking out nearly 27% of the time. Nottingham has an aggressive approach at the plate and some holes in his swing that more advanced pitchers have been able to exploit, and in 213 games at the AA level during 2016-17 he hit for only a combined. His bat hasn’t continued to develop as hoped while playing the last two seasons in the pitcher-friendly Southern League. Since joining Milwaukee’s organization, though, the script has flipped on Nottingham’s career trajectory. 316/.372/.505 with 17 home runs and 33 doubles while whiffing in just 19.4% of his plate appearances. In 119 games between the Class-A Midwest League and Class-A Advanced California League, Jacob hit. He was once considered an offense-first prospect whose bat may have forced him off the catching position, especially after crushing A-ball competition in 2015. 296/.345/.519 (119 wRC+) with one home run through his first eight games at the highest level of the minors. Jacob began the year by reaching the AAA level for the first time in his career and was off to a hot start with Colorado Springs, batting. His hands are held high, up around ear level, and he uses a brief toe-tap before loading up and swinging. He bats from a crouched, slightly open stance, with significant bend in his knees. Nottingham has a very physical build, especially for a catcher, standing 6’2” and tipping the scales at 230 lbs. So what can we expect from the young backstop? Offense This might not be a long stint in Milwaukee for Nottingham, but he’s the organization’s most advanced catching prospect and is someone that we’ll probably see a good deal of in the next few seasons. His first career start came last night, when he went 0-for-3 but looked good behind the plate. Nottingham debuted two nights ago in the laugher against the Reds, appearing as a defensive replacement behind the plate starting in the 7th inning while drawing two walks and scoring a run in two plate appearances. A former 6th round pick of the Houston Astros back in 2013, Nottingham has been traded twice in his career - first to Oakland around the deadline in 2015 as a part of the Scott Kazmir deal, then from the Golden State to Milwaukee a few months later in the Khris Davis trade prior to the start of the 2016 season. ![]() Two days ago, the Milwaukee Brewers announced the placement of catcher Manny Pina on the disabled list and called up 23 year old Jacob Nottingham to the big leagues for the first time.

SOME EXCEPTIONS TO THESE RULES, HOWEVER.【UPDATE: Since the AI is stupid, there is nothing wrong in increasing their survivability if you don’t intend on using them much】. Anime Souls with a tight story is my jam. And given that he actually sacrifices so much, it would be nice to see what his memories at least were.Ĭode Vein suffers from a low budget feeling, and the lack of polish throughout a lot of the game, but the whole experience is actually really good. I wished somethings are given more meat though, like at least let me talk to Silva one last time, since every successor gets a chance to talk. Best boi Louis sacrifice everthing again. MY GOD it's dark, it's actually good! Bad ending is best ending.Ĭan't believe everyone ends up living in solitude as successors, until frenzy takes over them, and Jack returns to kill everyone. ![]() Even created Io in order to help successors.Īnd the true ending is standard cliche happy anime ending. And every blood code owner are good guys too, even the most powerful revenant, Queen, is just someone who sacrifices herself for humanity. Mia and Nicola are just kids trying to survive. Then Jack has to kill his most precious companion (almost), truly a touching love story. Abused, vocal chords cut, and finally gave herself to become a successor herself. Yakumo is just an all rounder good guy good friend.Īll the time you hear about bad guy Silva, turns out all he does is sacrifice his everything, from his daughter, to himself.Įva and Jack looks like bad guys in their marketing art, turns out Jack is a relentless hero watching over everybody, and Eva is one of the most tortured lady in the story. When you first woke up, you met the nicest person Louis. The characters, outside Black Panther Mido, there is almost no bad guy in CV, this is truly a hopeful world unlike Souls, where everybody is out to kill you. So I finally finished CV, got the true ending, and obviously wanted to share impressions of the story. But a likely explanation that could be made up as to why no one mentions this is that due to the horrible state the world is in, the red mist keeping all the Revenants in, and seemingly powerful Aragami being right outside the mist means that people simply had no way to check it out and after enough years just forgot about it or didn't feel it was relevant since it couldn't help them anyway.Īnyway with what the DLC for Code Vein could provide and if there is a Code Vein 2 and God Eater 4, it would really cool to see larger cross overs. Now obviously it's likely Code Vein wasn't in the minds of the developers around when God Eater 1 was being made hence why none of this is mentioned. ![]() The reason being that Code Vein takes place before the first 3 games is because the moon is still normal, thusly Nova, the final boss of GE1:R, hasn't gone there with Shio. The outside world now without Revenants continue to fight Aragami as they continue to evolve, leading eventually to creating the God Arcs from Aragami The Revenants kill the Queen, the relics are created and Grergorio Silva using his relic creates the red mist that seals every Revenant and creation of the Queen behind it.ĥ. However as the game shows this backfires and she becomes the Queen and her own world ending threat.Ĥ. This eventually leads to Cruz Silva to be picked to be experimented on due to her high results. BOR Parasite is discovered and leads to the creation of the Revenants and they act as the first line of defense against the Aragami (at the time seemingly just known as, the Horrors)ģ. So with this in mind it seems like the timeline goes as follows.Ģ. Now the game had a ton of little references up to this point but many that could be just chalked up to being the same developer but with Dyaus appearing along with the words of Mido afterwards it's clear these two series are actually connected. What I had no idea was that the monster that showed up was Dyaus Pita, an Aragami first introduced in the game, God Eater. ![]() If you were like me, you thought you might fight this but this is the last time you see it. Near the ending of the game when the red mist fades, a monster shows up and begins attacking Revenants before being pushed back to the other side by the red mist reforming. So, I feel it's only right to start with what is arguably the big revelation of the game that may have gone over peoples heads as it did for me. ![]() So once again, last warning, MAJOR SPOILERS. So I don't expect this to be an incredibly active thread but due to the fairly story heavy nature of Code Vein I thought it would be cool to have open spoilers here since the other thread has many who are still working their way through it. It's been one year before I took these again, and I took it like it's new since I remembered literally nothing from it. Yet these scores (in total) differ a lot from my retake of AAMC practice tests one year apart since I last took it (and scored a 502 on the actual thing), which I've only taken two so far. My Altius test scores are consistently in the range of 500-503 only, with my C/P scores and B/B scores fluctuating between 125 to 127 (which I'm seriously panicking about). I hate Anki.I heard from people before that it is still a good representation, but I'm seriously doubting myself. I did not use any Anki decks for either exam. I did not keep a spreadsheet to track my reviews, that felt like a waste of time to format/colorcode/etc. If I was confused, I would break out the Kaplan books and read the sections that corresponded with the topic. Make sure you do this with the questions that you got right too, because sometimes we make lucky guesses OR we have the wrong reasoning but somehow get the right answer. I would go VERY slowly, question by question, and made sure I understood the reasoning. Spent one day each reviewing each exam (so would take exam on Saturday then spend Sunday reviewing the entire thing). For my March exam I ONLY used AAMC materials: did ALL the qpacks (except CARS), section bank, all 5 FLs (the 4 official + sample). probably only got through like 100-200 questions each section. For my January exam I only did Uearth and struggled to keep up. ![]() For everything else, I had a kindly gifted for free ahem copy of the Kaplan books, but I didn't read them. If you need CARS help, I highly recommend doing the daily Jack Westin passages, they feel pretty representative. Did not study CARS because I've always been naturally good at reading comprehension-type exams (perfect score on SAT reading/writing and GRE verbal).

The New York Districting Attorney's office launched an investigation into the reportedly stolen goods in 2016 after the death of Eagles icon Glenn Frey as they had suspected that Horowitz was attempting to attach Frey's name to the documents instead of Henley's, which would likely have caused the case to disintegrate. These handwritten lyrics are an integral part of the legacy Don Henley has created over the course of his 50-plus-year career," Eagles manager Irving Azoff told Rolling Stone. No one has the right to sell illegally obtained property or profit from the outright theft of irreplaceable pieces of musical history. "This action exposes the truth about music memorabilia sales of highly personal, stolen items hidden behind a facade of legitimacy. It has also been alleged that the trio even tried to "coerce" Henley into buying his own documents back from them. The former previously employed Inciardi prior to him joining the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame staff, as noted by UCR. Once Horowitz allegedly obtained these documents, he is said to have then welcomed Inciardi and Kosinski as potential dealers as they collectively sought to sell the documents to auction houses such as Sotheby's and Christie's. Among the roughly 100 pages of material are handwritten notes and lyrics to "Hotel California," "Life in the Fast Lane" and "New Kid in Town," which the trio are accused of attempting to find find buyers for.

There were also six albums that he recorded for manager Steve Paul’s Blue Sky Records (distributed by Columbia’s sister imprint, Epic/Portrait/Associated Labels, or E/P/A): John Dawson Winter III (1974), Together (1976), Captured Live! (1976), Nothin’ But The Blues (1977), White, Hot & Blue (1978), and Raisin’ Cain (1980). True To The Blues also draws tracks from Winter’s two Grammy Award-nominated albums: Guitar Slinger, nominated for Best Traditional Blues Recording at the 27th Grammy Awards (February, 1985) and Serious Business, nominated for Best Traditional Blues Recording at the 28th Grammy Awards (February, 1986).Īt the core of True To The Blues are the six albums that Winter recorded for Columbia Records: Johnny Winter (1969), Second Winter (1969), Johnny Winter And (1970), Johnny Winter And/Live(1971), Still Alive And Well (1973), and Saints & Sinners (1975). The first three of those titles won consecutive Grammy Awards as “Best Ethnic Or Traditional Recording, namely Hard Again (1977), I’m Ready (1978), and Muddy “Mississippi” Waters – Live (1979). It is noted that Johnny Winter produced and played guitar on the final four LPs recorded by his hero MUDDY WATERS after he left Chess Records. ![]() A blues lover’s dream collection, the box set also pays homage to the great forebears who influenced Winter, and with whom he was able to record during his long career, among them: Willie Dixon and Walter “Shakey” Horton (together on 'Mean Mistreater' from Winter’s self-titled Columbia debut LP, 1969) and Muddy Waters and his band featuring James Cotton, “Pinetop” Perkins, and Willie “Big Eyes” Smith (in the studio on Muddy’s 'Walkin’ Thru The Park', and live on Guitar Slim’s 'I Done Got Over It', both from 1977). True To The Blues not only showcases Winter and the band lineups he has led over the years, many of them (up through 1976) including his brother Edgar on vocals and an array of instruments (keyboards, reeds, drums). Jones, Donald “Duck” Dunn, Anton Fig, and Jim Keltner. Joining Winter at MSG was that night’s all-star ‘house band’ of G.E. A year later, Winter was invited to the BOB DYLAN 30th Anniversary Concert Celebration at Madison Square Garden, to reprise his blistering version of 'Highway 61 Revisited', one of two indelible covers of Dylan, along with JIMI HENDRIX’s 'All Along the Watchtower', that defined the closing of the ’60s. JOHN on 'Illustrated Man', recorded in Chicago, 1991. Winter would be signed with CBS through 1980.Īmong other notable musicians on True To The Blues are DR. His six-figure signing with Columbia was reportedly the biggest advance in the CBS Records era to that point in history. The issue, coupled with his incendiary playing on an 11-minute jam of JOHN LEE HOOKER’s 'It’s My Own Fault', shot the unknown and unsigned-to-a-record-label Johnny Winter to stardom. It was Winter’s first trip to New York City, on the heels of a Texas music scene survey on the newsstands that week in Rolling Stone magazine (not yet one year old!). ![]() Guests abound throughout True To The Blues, starting with the third track as fellow blues guitar giant MICHAEL BLOOMFIELD introduces Johnny Winter to the Fillmore East audience in December 1968, during a “Super Session” live concert date with AL KOOPER. These range from his independently recorded and released The Progressive Blues Experiment of 1968 up through 2011’s all-star duets project, Roots. The contents are sourced from no less than 27 separate albums on the Imperial, Columbia, Blue Sky/Epic, Alligator, Point Blank (Virgin), Friday Music, Megaforce, and Columbia/Legacy labels. True To The Blues: The Johnny Winter Story lives up to its title with a chronological track sequence of studio and live material that underscores Johnny Winter’s hard-won reputation as an American blues master. Juke joints and cotton fields, rotgut whiskey and back alley crap games, lowdown, lonesome, trifling women and hard times. “A lot of people play the blues,” said Charlie Daniels (THE CHARLIE DANIELS BAND), “but there's only a handful who can reach deep into the music and make it real.
