The use of anti-HIV drugs following a potential sexual or injecting drug use exposure to HIV in order to try and prevent an exposure from becoming an infection is common. This is called nonoccupational postexposure prophylaxis (NPEP). The likelihood of NPEP succeeding is related to intrinsic qualities of the drugs used which includes at which point in the life cycle of the HIV virus the drugs work, how strong the drugs are against HIV, and how well tolerated the drugs are i.e. what side effects they produce. Many people skip doses during their treatment or abandon their treatment because of side effects. The anti-HIV drug raltegravir works early in the life cycle of the virus i.e. before it integrates with human DNA, is potent against HIV and causes few side effects. These qualities make it an obvious choice for use as a NPEP treatment. In this study 100 HIV negative men will receive raltegravir along with another HIV drug called truvada (commonly used in NPEP) for 28 days after a possible sexual exposure to HIV. They will be monitored closely for adverse events, side effects and for their ability to take the medicine each day for the whole 28 days. The hypothesis in this study states that raltegravir use in NPEP will be safe, well tolerated and result in a high treatment completion rate.

The Dynatrap insect trap uses a combination of light and CO2 to attract flying insects. Two UV fluorescent bulbs in the Dynatrap insect trap produce the warm light and the coated titanium dioxide funnel produces the CO2 that mosquitoes find irresistible. A quiet vacuum fan pulls the insects into the retaining cage where they cannot escape once insects reach the trap area. The durable, all-weather Dynatrap insect trap operates on 115-volts AC and comes with a 10-ft. power cord. 12"Hx10"Wx10"D. Imported.

Head Liquidmetal Tennis Racquets
HEAD Liquidmetal tennis racquets revolutionize racquet design with a completely new material. Regular racquet materials often deform on impact, stealing energy away from the ball. HEAD Liquidmetal is composed with a liquid atomic structure, preventing it from deforming under pressure. This allows it to return all energy it receives from your swing and on impact back into the ball, making sure none of your effort is wasted! Players can expect to see power increases of up to 29%! HEAD Liquidmetal is also 2 1/2 times stronger than titanium, allowing it to remain strong under pressure. In addition to the strength of the material, the corrugated shape of the HEAD Liquidmetal locations increases surface rigidity and stiffness. This in turn increases the torsional stability of the racquet head, keeping it from twisting on off center shots. HEAD Liquidmetal racquets contain Liquidmetal applied to the racquet head in four strategic locations. The result is no energy loss, more power, more stability, and a significantly larger sweetspot. HEAD Liquidmetal tennis racquets are also accompanied by various technologies such as NoShox and IDS (Integrated String Dampener). To learn more about Liquidmetal and its accompanying technologies, visit our HEAD Liquidmetal rackets technology page in our Tennis Express Buyer's Guide!

One of our most interesting recent acquisitions is a papal bull against bullfighting: Bulla S.D. N. Pii Pape V. Super prohibitione agitationis Taurorum & Ferarum, & annulatione votorum & iuramentorum, super eisdem pro tempore interpositorum (Rome: heirs of Antonio Blado, 1567). Papal bulls are decrees issued by the Pope. This particular bull is considered one of the foundation documents of the animal protection movement.
A Yale Law School LL.M. student, Raffael Nicolas Fasel, saw the bull on a tour of the Rare Book Collection and offered to write about it. I am pleased to welcome Raffael as a guest blogger. His piece fits well with the Christmas spirit. – MIKE WIDENER, Rare Book Librarian
De Salute Gregis Dominici: A Papal Bull Banning Bullfighting in 1567 by Raffael Nicolas Fasel LL.M. candidate, Yale Law School
Although the spectacles of the Roman Colosseum and other staged fights between human and non-human animals are long past, bullfighting persists in some parts of the modern world. Today, the so-called corridas de toros are being held not only in Spain, Portugal and Southern France, but also in Latin American countries such as Mexico, Colombia, Ecuador, Venezuela and Peru.
It is estimated that each year approximately 10,000 bulls are killed in these fights. Because of the torment that is caused to the animals – predominantly bulls, but also the horses used by lancers who stab the bulls – many regard bullfighting as an archaic and barbaric tradition.
For this reason, numerous countries have adopted prohibitions on bullfighting. In these countries, the practice is either forbidden by a specific ban – as in the case of the Catalan bullfighting ban from 2012 – or by a more general anti-cruelty statute.
However, banning bullfighting is not as recent a phenomenon as one would think. Already half a millennium before Catalonia's ban, the Catholic Church adopted an interdiction of bullfighting and similar types of blood sports that involve animals. In 1567 the pope, St. Pius V, issued a papal bull titled Super prohibitione agitationis Taurorum & Ferarum ("An injunction forbidding bullfights and similar sports with wild animals"), and commonly referred to as "De Salute Gregis Dominici" ("On the welfare of the Lord's flock"). The bull is one of the treasures in the Rare Book Collection of the Yale Law Library.
In his bull, Pope Pius V "removed from Christian piety and charity" any spectacles "in which bulls and other wild animals are challenged in circuses and plazas." Under penalty of excommunication, the bull forbade staging and attending fights in which men confronted bulls or other wild animals. Bullfights and similar events are denounced by the bull as constituting "cruel and base spectacles of the devil and not of man."
In the legal system of the Catholic Church, the 1567 bull has lost some of its importance because later popes, Gregory XIII and Clement VIII, limited the ban on attending bullfights to members of the clergy and to spectacles taking place on religious holidays. However, Pius V's bull has never been directly repealed by another bull or provision of canon law. Like all other papal bulls, the 1567 bull has been endowed with perpetual validity in accordance with the formula "ad perpetuam rei memoriam" ("for a permanent record of the matter"), which is stated in its very beginning. Therefore, to the extent that the bull has not been overridden by any subsequent provisions, it remains in force.
In comparison with modern-day animal protection laws, the 1567 bull adheres to what is nowadays seen as an outdated anthropocentric model of animal protection. Pope Pius V was not so much concerned with the well-being of the animals themselves, but rather with the salvation and the welfare of the Lord's flock, that is, the Christians. It was not until the 19th century that animal protection statutes were adopted for the animals' own sakes.
As a precursor of these more modern and secular prohibitions of bullfighting, however, pope Pius V's "De Salute Gregis Dominici" bull remains an important point of reference.
A digitized version of the 1567 Super prohibitione agitationis Taurorum & Ferarum is available here, in Internet Culturale, the web portal to digital collections in Italian libraries.
A partial English translation of the bull is provided on the website of SHARK (SHowing Animals Respect and Kindness).
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) has a discussion of Pius V's bull on its website; for an alternate view, see "The Morality of the Bullfight" on the Saint Louis Catholic blog.
Books from our Rare Book Collection once again are the stars in a video by my friend Mark Weiner. The latest video is titled "On Looking into Coke's Reports" and the stars are the two most important works authored by the famous English jurist Sir Edward Coke (1552-1634): The First Part of the Institutes of the Lawes of England (3rd ed.; London, 1633), commonly known as Coke on Littleton; and the first volume of Coke's Reports, Les Reports de Edward Coke l'Attorney Generall le Roigne (London, 1601?). In supporting roles are some of the manuscript case reports that once belonged to Sir Matthew Hale (1609-1676), another great English judge who authored the landmark treatise on English criminal law, Pleas of the Crown (1678).
In his Worlds of Law blog, Weiner writes that his video essay "is about rare books, jazz, the passage of time, and old movies … and the law reports of the great jurist Edward Coke."

New Yale Law Library exhibit…
Murder trials have long been a subject of sensational treatment in popular culture, and murder trials involving women, as the accused or the victims, especially so.
The latest exhibit from the Yale Law Library's Rare Book Collection features 19th-century illustrated pamphlets that document the public's fascination with these trials.
The exhibit, "Murder and Women in 19th-Century America: Trial Accounts in the Yale Law Library," is curated by Emma Molina Widener (Department of World Languages, Southern Connecticut State University) and Michael Widener (Rare Book Librarian, Yale Law Library). It is on display through February 21, 2015, in the Rare Book Exhibition Gallery, located on Level L2 of the Lillian Goldman Law Library, Yale Law School (127 Wall Street, New Haven, CT).
The exhibit can also be viewed in the Rare Book Collection's Flickr site.
Murder trial pamphlets are a rich source for studying popular culture and the history of the book, as well as legal history. Trials involving women are especially valuable for the study of 19th-century gender roles. With the exception of slavery trials, no genre of 19th-century legal literature is better served by research tools than murder trials.
The "Celebration of the Anthony Taussig Acquisition" symposium on October 3 was a tremendous success. Thanks to all who attended and who helped organize the event.
Those who could not attend can view video recordings of the excellent program online. The speakers include:
Thanks to Dan Griffin (Manager of Instructional Technologies, Yale Law School) for producing the videos.
In addition, photos from the Taussig Celebration are available on Flickr.
The event was made possible through the generous support of the Oscar M. Ruebhausen Fund at Yale Law School and the Beinecke Rare Book & Mnuscript Library.
The Lillian Goldman Law Library is at the same time delighted to report the publication of Ann Jordan Laeuchli's Bibliographical Catalog of William Blackstone (Buffalo, NY: Published for Yale Law Library by William S. Hein & Co., 2015) and deeply saddened to report the death of its author.
Ann Laeuchli passed away on September 26, a mere four days after receiving her personal copies of her magnum opus, a work that she spent two decades preparing, the last few years with the able assistance and editorship of James E. Mooney. Ann served the Yale Law Library as its Associate Law Librarian from 1984 to 1993 during the directorship of the late, great Morris L. Cohen. It was Morris who encouraged Ann to undertake the Blackstone bibliography. She dedicated the book to Morris, "my director, my mentor, my friend."
A Bibliographical Catalog of William Blackstone supercedes and surpasses the work that until now was the standard bibliography, Catherine Spicer Eller's The William Blackstone Collection in the Yale Law Library: A Bibliographical Catalogue (New Haven: Published for the Yale Law Library by the Yale University Press, 1938). The 266 entries in Eller included only the Blackstone collection at Yale, while Laeuchli's 672 entries cover all editions of Blackstone's works published in the Roman alphabet, plus biographies, criticisms, catalogs, prospectuses, exhibitions, microtexts, and electronic resources.
Laeuchli's bibliography is a fitting tribute to Sir William Blackstone (1723-1780), whose Commentaries on the Laws of England (1st ed. 1765-1769) remains the single most influential book in the history of Anglo-American common law. As Morris Cohen wrote in his Foreword, "It is hard to imagine a legal figure whose works are more deserving of bibliographic coverage than William Blackstone."
As the home of the world's largest and most comprehensive collection of Blackstoniana, the Yale Law Library supported Laeuchli's project enthusiastically and is honored to sponsor its publication.
Following Ann Laeuchli's death, her family returned to the library a very special book that was the foundation of Ann's project: a copy of Eller's 1938 Blackstone bibliography, inscribed on the cover "Personal copy of Catherine S. Eller Annotated", interleaved and filled with Eller's notes on Blackstone editions to add. We thank the Laeuchli family, and we join with them in mourning the death of a wonderful woman and celebrating her achievements.

text: Dear IndictBushNow supporter, Never before in history has a U.S. court allowed a torture suit to proceed against a current or former Cabinet Secretary. That is, until now. Federal Judge Wayne R. Andersen is allowing a lawsuit charging former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld with authorizing the use of torture. Navy veteran Donald Vance has accused U.S. forces in Iraq of subjecting him to severe sleep deprivation and extremely cold temperatures, and denying him food and water for extended periods during the three months he was held in prison. The court flatly rejected a request for dismissal filed on the grounds that Rumsfeld was immune from suit as high-placed governmental official. This decision echoes the fundamental constitutional principles that our movement has fiercely fought for: Torture is not just wrong, it is illegal. No one is above the law. This is only the beginning. A torture lawsuit against Rumsfeld in a U.S. court could open the floodgates for similar legal actions against other top-level officials of the Bush administration. We must all give determined political support to this legal struggle. It is time to redouble our efforts. On March 20, IndictBushNow will join thousands of others in the streets of Washington, D.C. at the National March on Washington against the Afghanistan and Iraq wars initiated by the Bush administration. We will continue to take to the streets in defense of justice, accountability, and the Constitution. Our fight is not over. Please stand with thousands of others on March 20. Spread the word to others. If you can't attend but want to show your support, you can make a donation so that others can come. To donate, click here.

Revitalizing Booster Concentrate contains mostly water, thickener, sunscreen (though the product does not have an SPF rating), Bio-Maple Compound, thickeners, and preservative. Antioxidants are in short supply, and this ends up being a rather boring specialty product for every skin type.
This breakthrough formula soothes and helps heal sensitive, irritated, reddened and sunburned skin. Contains bisabolol, an anti-inflammatory ingredient to restore smoothness while calming and cooling skin. Formulated without fragrance, mineral oil, lanolin or artificial colors that may clog or irritate skin.
Purified Water, PEG-400, Octyl Methoxycinnamate, Bio-Maple Compound (Natural Maple Isolate), Cetyl Alcohol, Coco Caprylate/Caprate, Squalane, Phenoxyethanol, Methylparaben, Ethylparaben, Propylparaben, Butylparaben, Stearic Acid, Ceteareth-12, Cyclomethicone And Dimethicone Copolyol, Polysorbate 80, Trolamine, Carbomer, Tocopherol Acetate, Retinyl Palmitate, Bisabolol, Disodium EDTA
B. Kamins, Chemist At-A-Glance
Strengths: Several very good, water-soluble cleansers; some fragrance-free products; all sunscreens provide sufficient UVA protection; an excellent skin-lightening option; and moisturizer for sensitive skin.
Weaknesses: Expensive for mostly mediocre to good formulas, making this line an overall tough sell compared to competitors such as Jan Marini, Skinceuticals, or Peter Thomas Roth; mint, menthol, or a menthol derivative show up in several formulations; boring or problematic masks with an embarrassing price-to-performance ratio; has the right idea about including antioxidants but relies too heavily on jar packaging; disappointing anti-acne products containing a preponderance of irritating ingredients.
Formerly sold with the targeted tagline "Baby Boomer Skin Care," B. Kamins is now known as The Gentle Cosmeceutical. The new presentation is designed to communicate the impression that their products provide significant benefits without being harsh, while also appealing to a wider demographic (not just baby boomers) concerned with aging skin. Considering that the definition of cosmeceutical (a term the FDA does not regulate) is "a cosmetic that has or is purported to have medicinal properties," B. Kamins is stretching things a bit, because most of the products in this line are nothing more than standard, often overpriced cosmetics.
B. Kamins is Ben Kaminsky, a Canadian cosmetics chemist. While on a winter fishing trip in Northern Canada, he observed that certain Canadian maple trees (Acer saccharum) could survive and thrive in spite of being rooted in a cold, unforgiving climate. After 30 years of research, Kamins developed a trademarked method of extracting and purifying a biological compound from these maple trees. The result of this extraction is Bio-Maple™ Compound, and every product in his line contains this ingredient.
The company claims Bio-Maple™ Compound not only moisturizes skin and improves its smoothness but also enhances skin-cell turnover, while diminishing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The natural sugars, which help bind moisture to skin, and antioxidant components that occur in maple likely have benefit for skin, but there is no substantiated research proving the Bio-Maple™ Compound is better than countless other antioxidants. Further, you'd think after 30 years of research Kamins would have published or had at least one of his studies peer-reviewed for validation—but he didn't.
The practice of extracting a substance from a plant (be it root, flower, or tree) is often detailed and laborious, not to mention subject to climate and soil conditions. But it must be stressed that the factors that enable plants to thrive in sunlight and the elements while our skin and body functions can't take such abuse for very long are now the essence of antioxidant research. We still don't know which antioxidant is the most effective one. Moreover, what many researchers believe is true is that a cocktail of antioxidants, each with varying functions, may prove most beneficial for skin. Ongoing research continues to back up the connection between topically applied antioxidants and improvements in the creation of healthier skin that has a better ability to defend itself from the elements. Although the role of antioxidants in skin care is exciting and evolving, one major element Kamins' theory ignores is the fact that the biological processes of humans and plants are completely different. And if sugar maple (that's the garden name for the Acer saccharum tree) has such tremendous benefit as an antioxidant that it deserves standing on its own in skin-care products, only B. Kamins seems to know about it.
In contrast to the last time we reviewed this line, we are pleased to report that Kamins' has done away with all of his inferior sunscreens. None of them now lack sufficient UVA protection, and all are rated SPF 15 or greater, and that's good news.
You may have heard that this is a good line to shop if you have rosacea. However, the Kamins products meant to address this skin disorder fall short on most counts, either by containing irritants or using other ingredients that are not ideal for calming the symptoms of rosacea.
For more information about B. Kamins, Chemist, call (888) 252-6467 or visit www.bkamins.com.

Shedding Pounds With Yoga
With the obesity rate going higher than ever, people from different walks of life have chosen their preferred method of losing weight. Shedding pounds with yoga is among one of the most popular methods to have been chosen by many. Before we go any further, let us first understand what obesity and how it is affected by the exercises done in Yoga. As what most of us already know, obesity happens when there is too much excess fat in a person's body or as what we call it, weight gain. With the lifestyle of people getting more and more sedentary in today's time, cases of obesity have gotten worse.
A lot of people can attest that shedding pounds with yoga is very effective. Obesity becomes worse when an individual continuously adds calories to the body (from the food it eats) without burning it afterwards. With some individuals however, it stems from other health conditions like thyroid problems and the like. However, in terms of obesity caused by overeating and lack of exercise, yoga can be the perfect solution. It not only works on the individual's physical aspect but also on the emotional and mental aspects. Consistent exercise through yoga and a lifestyle change can help an individual lose those unwanted pounds.
Another reason that makes shedding pounds with yoga very successful is its ability to improve an individual's control over one's mind as well as his attitude. When one has control over one's mind and attitude, self discipline becomes easier. Curbing one's appetite and restructuring one's lifestyle for the better no longer feels very tedious. The effect of yoga towards weight loss is long term unlike that of other diet techniques. With constant practice, one can leave the plight of obesity and at the same time keep the weight off afterwards.
The wonderful thing with Yoga is that it can be done by anyone, men and women, young and old alike. It enables one to become more fit, agile and productive. It is also a good way to relieve one's self with stress because of its meditation and relaxation exercises. That being said, Yoga is indeed an exercise that deals with an individual's entire being.

Bruce Springsteen
The writers of this blog are not music critics, and they don't consider a second (or third, fourth or fifth) mortgage to be a perfectly reasonable course of action to pay for front-row tickets, but despite being a whole lot more middle aged than they were when they first put \x34Born in the U.S.A.\x34 or \x34The River\x34 down on the turntable, still feels like Bruce has something -- OK, a lot of things -- to say about our country and the way we live our lives, things that not a lot of other artists are saying. And whether he's talking about the knife that can cut this pain from your heart, the house that's waiting for you to walk in or what that flag flying over the courthouse means, he's nailing down feelings that are so universal that they can raise your spirits and break your heart at the same time. Plus, let¿s face it, the man rocks.

text: GeographyOman is a 1,000-mile-long (1,700 km) coastal plain at the southeast tip of the Arabian Peninsula lying on the Arabian Sea and the Gulf of Oman. It is bordered by the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and Yemen. The country is the size of Kansas. GovernmentAbsolute monarchy. HistoryArabs migrated to Oman from the 9th century BC onward, and conversion to Islam occurred in the 7th century AD Muscat, the capital of the geographical area known as Oman, was occupied by the Portuguese from 1508 to 1648. Then it fell to Ottoman Turks, but in 1741, Ahmad ibn Sa'id forced them out, and the descendants of Sultan Ahmad rule Oman today. Ahmad expanded his empire to East Africa, and for a time the Omani capital was in Zanzibar. After 1861, however, Zanzibar fell from Omani control. The sultans and imams of Oman clashed continuously throughout the 20th century until 1959, when the last Ibadi imam was evicted from the country. In a palace coup on July 23, 1970, the sultan, Sa'id bin Taimur, who had ruled since 1932, was overthrown by his son, Qabus ibn Sa'id, who promised to establish a modern government and use newfound oil wealth to aid the people of this very isolated state. Oman joined the Arab League and the United Nations in 1971. A long border dispute with Yemen was resolved in Oct. 1992; in 1997, the countries agreed to new maps defining the border. In 1997, Sultan Qabus granted women the right to be elected to the country's consultative body, the Shura Council (Majlis al-Shura). In 2003, the sultan extended voting rights to everyone over 21; previously, voters were selected from among the elite, and only about a quarter of the population was allowed to vote.

Presenter: Eleanor F. Moseman, assistant professor, Art History, Colorado State University. This two-day symposium addresses the framework for modernism in the region covered by the German and Austro-Hungarian empires and their successor states, from roughly 1890 to 1945. The state of affairs summed up under the term "modernity," and the cultural responses to it designated "modernism" or, more radically, "avantgarde," are commonly understood to derive from historical developments in the nation-states of western Europe and North America.

Young Romance 2 by Joe Simon & Jack Kirby - Photoset Preview | |
Written by Mike Baehr | Filed under previews, new releases, Michel Gagne, Joe Simon, Jack Kirby | 24 Jan 2014 2:17 PM |
"Simon found he had a knack for tangled melodrama set in very specific milieus, while Kirby drew ordinary men and women with the same sweaty fervor that he lent to monsters and costumed do-gooders....All of which means that the Michel Gagné-edited collection Young Romance... isn't just a book of some minor historical interest; it's a genuinely entertaining and artful set of comics, and in some ways more readable than Simon and Kirby's adventure stories." – Noel Murray, The A.V. Club
"Simon and Kirby tried to bring as much excitement to primarily psychological and interpersonal goings-on as to punching and flying." – Paste
"...[T]hese comics are among the best in their genre without a doubt." – Eddie Campbell, The Comics Journal
"...[Young Romance] is a real treat, an inexpensive way to read a nice sampling of some Kirby comics that any Kirby fanatic has to be curious about. Michel Gagné did a great job assembling a fun cross-section of stories... Rating: ★★★★★" – Jason Sacks, Comics Bulletin
"Young Romance underscores Simon and Kirby's keen storytelling skills. Adhering to a mostly six-panel grid, the duo manage to produce work that is visually arresting and dramatic... For Kirby fans and those who just love to explore comics from generations past, it's a rather essential read." - Chris Mautner, Robot 6
Young Romance 2: The Early Simon & Kirby Romance Comics

Xbox MVP Helps Kids in the Hospital and Troops Overseas Stay in the Game
Monday, May 06, 2013
When his dream of a high school Halo tournament was crushed, Xbox MVP Zach Wigal just dreamed bigger.
What's the one thing that can help make a kid's stay in the hospital more comfortable? That's right, video games. And Gamers Outreach Foundation, the brainchild of Xbox MVP Zach Wigal, is helping make sure they get them.
The idea for Gamers Outreach was spawned when Zach was a high school student, trying to organize a Halo tournament at his school. A local police officer complained it wasn't suitable and Zach decided to shift the focus of the tournament (which he was committed to make happen, if in a new location) to show that gamers coming together could have a positive impact on people's lives.
The resulting tournament, Gamers for Giving, has become the annual fundraising event for the Gamers Outreach Foundation, where Zach serves as executive director. The events help fund GO Karts (Gamers Outreach Karts), portable video game kiosks which allow hospital staff members to easily transport video games and other sources of entertainment to patients. In addition, the organization supplies video game care packages to United States troops serving overseas through its Fun for our Troops initiative and hosts fund raising events for its own projects as well as a variety of causes and charity organizations through its program, Gaming4Others.
The most recent Gamers for Giving's headline activities included a Halo 4 tournament, a Black Ops 2 tournament, and a 200-person LAN party that also featured PC gaming competitions (League of Legends, Counter Strike GO, and StarCraft 2). The event attracted 456 participants and the live stream captured more than 340,000 views.
Most importantly, the event raised more than $15,000, which the Foundation can use to build two GO Karts, send 150 care packages to troops overseas and provide $2,000 to Eastern Michigan's ROTC department, which is helping to get the word out about their game care packages to deployed troops.
You can find out more about the Gamers Outreach Foundation at their web site:

We should do La Villa Strangiato. I'll sing.
We should do La Villa Strangiato. I'll sing.
You're never too old for tater tots.
Pal...the reason I am doing this is simply because after I saw your video I realized that there are others in the forum who play like I do. Don't kid yourself...this is not about chops...this is about having fun, making fun of ourselves and creating an epic masterpiece. You will fit in fine. And...when you create your video...you can do as many takes as you want before you send in the final product. We are all mostly hobbyists here....I ain't leaving my day job anytime soon...I play for my own pleasure and to torture my wife. Very simple and effective, really.
And....someone needs to coerce or convince the Highlander to participate. I know that Les doesn't want to show his face, since he is about 800 years old, and needs to maintain his disguise. but, he should be in this project anyway. Hear me Highlander????? You participate....or we'll have your head! And you will never experience "The Quickening"!
If we can iPhone it, count me in
-I'm no expert, but it seems to work and I haven't electrocuted myself yet. Which is pretty much the standard I live by.
S2 Custom 22 Semi-Hollow - SE Akesson+57/08's - Mira X - SE Custom 24 25th Anniversary - SE 30 Head/Cab
Of course. Iphone and an ipad 3. count me as a dummy but I can do a 4 minute video with that? I had no idea.
And I nominate Sweet Home Alabama as a contender. Classic and lots of easy parts. Or if we want to go real easy, something Neal Young--like Keep on Rocking In the Free World.
Last edited by butterfly; 02-05-2013 at 10:51 AM.
As long as your smart phone has video....that will work fine. these days, they even make it super easy to upload to youtube.
As far as the tunes above...they are exactly in the category I would recommend...classic, easy to play, easily recognizable. We have to defer to the lowest common denomonator here...I want everyone to feel comfortable with the final chosen topic...that being said...anything by Neil Young (and especially rockin' in the free world) would work for me!!
Man Bennett, it looks like there are enough people signed up that I better get off my butt and finally get an iPhone. Oh dear, what have I gotten myself into? Did I really sign up to not only learn, but video myself playing a Neil Young song?
Mary Jane's last dance?
if you're going to do Mr. Young - Cinnomon Girl
...if we all through out a few we can do a poll later to pick one?
Correct! We develop the group...then we choose a song that we can all agree on. 'Cause if it was just me, it would be all Neil Young or BOC..or pink floyd...or Stones....so, I'm easy.. so long as there aren't any real difficult passages. If you've seen my "beat it" solo video....you understand that speaking for myself...I am prepared to expose my limitations in the name of having fun and a good time.

Welcome aboard
By the way, is this gonna be "guitar only" video? No bass, drums, vocals, whatever? Or will the guitar be layered over the original song, that would be well heard in the video? (I find the second option more fun than the first, but a bigger pain in the a** to equalize)
Love for all human beings is like listening to any kind of music. You just don't care.
The 3-Mike-7 devotee.
How about something with a backing track on iTunes that everyone can download....... Must be some ACDC on there!!
The unifying rule of thumb...be it a click track, or playing along to a background song, or whatever...must be the ease of video editing the final versions. That is my major concern. I agreed to take the helm of the editing, with the understanding that I've never done it before and need to learn the basics.....some of the recommendations are probably easier than others, and some may just be untenable given my ability and available equipment.
So...Let's try to keep this project as simple as we can. Anyone who has done video editing in the past is welcome to chime in with tips, ideas and recommendations.
