Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds is Essentially a Spaghetti Western.
By Marc Frucht
Will we ever tire of consuming Spaghetti Westerns, and what does this do to the people of the Native American nations?
This essay will show that the 1966 spaghetti western Navajo Joe has been copied and “cannibalized” all throughout its history including last year [...]
I don’t often ask favors of everyone I’ve ever met; but listen:
Even if I’ve given you a copy of my song “Frybread” for free, or even if you’ve bought it in compilations or on my CD back when I used to promote myself; could you please consider buying it off of the nammys page right [...]

Just so you know, online classical guitar lessons don’t actually “sux0r” as much as you would think.
Here’s a glimpse of some simple ones that should give you ideas of your own for teaching and/or taking lessons this way:

Subj: nice work on the john mayer tab!
Hey there,
I really like the work you did on TABbing John Mayer’s Human Nature instrumental!
I was working on it too,

and I see all the tab companies are trying to provide about three lines of the melody and calling that the whole thing.
It’s kind of neat that so [...]
If you get backpain from using a footstool sometime after 2-3 hours of practicing each day, you know you would do the 4-5 hours a day it takes to be on top of your game if you could, right? Didn’t you used to do that much each day? I did, until backpain came my way.

Reflecting On 11+ Years Of NAMMY Ceremonies Devoted To NDN Music!
By Marco Frucht
Rewritten by hand from NYTimes & Long Island Voice articles originally crafted by Robbie Woliver. [*]
The NAMMYS, Ellen Bello’s friends and relatives, and even Ellen herself make up just part (an active part!) of some very profound prophesies.
Recently, Bello chucked her [...]
Here’s TAB of John Mayer’s version to Human Nature which he played

intro and then added some of the soloing that Mayer does throughout.
(http://www.twitter.com/johncmayer) He repeats many licks for emphasis,

This song is just called Neda!
Neda (x7)
A so called leader will say
Neda’s death was all her fault
Was Carlo Giuliani’s death his own fault?
Was Victor Jara’s death his own fault??
Brad Will cannot be blamed just for outing
the paramilitary deathsquads with his camera!
بسیجی Basiji
Mexican version of Basiji
Amerikan version of Basiji!
I cannot blame Neda and I [...]
There are at least three known ways to make any .MP3 into a ringtone for your HTC Fuze (should work for the Touchpro, etc., as well)

Go to Start>Programs>Tools>File Explorer on the Fuze.
Locate the MP3 you want.
Highlight the file and tap Menu>Edit>Copy.
Use File Explorer again navigating to open the “Application Data” Folder.
Open [...]
