Simply beautiful music!
I really enjoy listening to these two. It’s calm and nice, with excellent music quality. She (Yael Naim) also looks pretty cool and she is very beautiful, specially when she wears those fantastic dresses (I like them :P).
I wish them the best of luck!
About:
Yael Naïm is a French-Israeli singer and songwriter who rose to fame in 2008, after her song “New Soul” was used by Apple in an advertising campaign for its MacBook Air. The success of this song made her the first Israeli solo artist to have a top ten hit in the United States. The song peaked at #7 on the Billboard Hot 100.
That’s right, the revolution is coming…and it’s gonna be big! Civilization Revolution is the new and most recent work of Sid Meier, developed by Firaxis for the new generation consoles: Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Nintendo DS.
Even though PC gamers (and Civ fans) won’t be able to play Revolution on their PC’s, this new Civilization game by Sid Meier looks pretty amazing with tons of new features and abilities.
Even Sid Meier is looking forward for the release having said “This is the game I’ve always wanted to make.”
If Civilization 4 was a success and for many the best strategy game of the year (rated ‘9.4 Editors’ Choice’ by GameSpot), then Civilization Revolution will blow you away.
For those who don’t know, Civilization is a series of turn-based strategy games ‘created’ by Sid Meier, since 1990 with the very first Civilization, followed by Sid Meier’s Civilization II (1996), Sid Meier’s Civilization III (2001), Sid Meier’s Civlization IV (2005), and now Sid Meier’s Civilization Revolution (2008).
Civilization series have come a long way now and Revolution is better than ever.
(Sid Meier)
In this new game you will find 16 civilizations (USA - Abraham Lincoln, England - Queen Elizabeth I, China - Mao Zedong, Japan - Tokugawa Ieyasu, Aztecs - Montezuma, India - Mohandas Gandhi, Mongolia - Ghenghis Khan, Rome - Julius Caesar, Egypt - Cleopatra, France - Napoleon Bonaparte, Arabia - Saladin, Greece - Alexander, Spain - Isabella I, Germany - Otto von Bismark, Zulu Nation - Shaka Zulu, Russia - Catherine the Great), an invaluable Civilopedia, a streamlined time scale for quicker play, a fully featured online play mode up to 4 players, integrated videos and voice chatting, in-game achievements, and extra downloadable content. The game also has highly detailed characters, units, buildings, landscapes and visual effects, with an amazing integrated physics for ultra-realism. In-game interface has been improved as well and it now looks awesome…pretty simple and nice.
The new Civilization Revolution intends to attract new gamers and to make the game more playable by all ages by trying to change the classic playing style of Civ. For example, game speed is now very different and you can end a game in only a few hours instead of previous Civ versions (which can be not cool for classic Civ fans, but cooler for first timers).
The game will be released on July 7 and so far it looks awesome.
I’m really looking forward this since Civilization series are my favorite…it’s a shame that I don’t have a PS3 or an XBox360.
Hi there.
I finally received my T-Shirt 2 or 3 days ago, but I’ve been very busy lately and didn’t have time to post about it before.
The T-Shirt is awesome, I really like it and may I say that it is the first ‘thing’ I receive, directly imported, from the USA (Portugal here!). That’s cool!
Anyway, here is a pic of the T-Shirt…

It’s very cool.
I want to double thank Bill for the T-Shirt (thanks Bill ) not only for the T-Shirt itself but also because he had to pay to send it across the pacific ocean. Make it a triple thanks…for the gesture Bill .
Thanks a lot.
So don’t forget to visit MXTabs.net. If you’re a musician you can find all kind of tabs at MXTabs, and the best part is that they are completely FREE and completely LEGAL. It is the only place on the web where you can find tabs with both these characteristics (besides, who knows if you won’t win a T-Shirt too…).
Apparently there is a DX10 version available for windows XP (which I did not know).
DX10 was supposed to work only with Vista but it seems that Cody Brocious, the Alky Project leader, has released a version of DX10 do XP.
However, this is not an official release from Microsoft and results are not guaranteed, and neither the stability of your computer.
Event though, if you wish to know more about this project or if you want to give it a try, you can visit the Alky Project web site.
Grand Theft Auto IV, probably the most anticipated game of the year, is finally on stores.
Developed by Rockstar North, GTA IV, was released worldwide (except in Japan) on 29 April 2008 (today) for both PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.
The action unfolds in Liberty City (based on New York City) where you play as Niko Bellic, an Eastern European who comes to the USA searching for the famous “American Dream”. However, Niko comes to find that his cousin has lied about the wealth and luxury that would be awaiting him.
The story features two possible endings depending on which choice the player makes at certain points in the game.
The latest version of GTA is also the first one to include online multiplayer with 15 different modes.
The game received an handful of positive reviews (both for PS3 and 360 platforms):
- GameSpot 10/10
- GameSpy 5/5
- IGN 10/10
- Eurogamer 10/10
- …
I just started listening these guys and from what I’ve listened so far, I think they’re pretty good. Take a look!

I think I won a T-shirt with my last post about MXTabs web site.
Bill, from MXTabs, just emailed me and said that he would like to give me a T-shirt for the positive comments and support to MXTabs.
Well…thanks a lot Bill! I’m looking forward to see it
MXTabs is a long time web site dedicated to provide guitar/drums/bass tablatures to the musicians community. However, tablatures with no license are illegal, which forced MXTabs to shut down.
But now MXTabs is back and this time with legal tablatures. It is the first tablature web site to offer free and legal tabs.
The process of ‘legalizing’ tablatures can be a little slow however and sometimes you can come across with this:
Currently Not Available
This Guitar tab for “XYZ” is currently not available for display on MXTabs.net. Please check back later as we add additional songs to the site.
Why Isn’t It available?
MXTabs is the first tablature web site to offer free, legal guitar tablature. By legal, we mean that all tablature has gone through a thorough licensing process, usually involving direct licensing with the song’s songwriter, publisher or copyright administrator. As tablature is a derivative of a copyright-protected work, simply displaying tablature for any song without doing due diligence of licensing the song would be a violation both copyright law, as well as a violation of the rights we believe a creator has over his or her own intellectual property.
While attempting to license the tab you are currently trying to view, we have been instructed by the copyright holder that we currently do not have permission to display the tablature for this song. To respect the wishes of the copyright holder, as well as to follow copyright laws, we are unable to currently display the tablature.
Will It Ever Be Available?
Since we are the first tablature community to be attempting to license an entire catalog of tabs, the process of doing so can take some time. We are continually working to gain additional licenses for songs to be displayed on MXTabs, and it is very likely that this tablature will be available in the near future.
What Can I Do To Help?
If you would like to get this song licensed for display on the MXTabs web site, your best approach would be to contact the songwriter, publisher or copyright administrator directly and let them know. Should you decide to do so, we strongly encourage you to do so in a positive way, as your actions are also a representation of the MXTabs community as whole - and our goal is to freely share knowledge while respecting copyright at the same time.
Even though it takes a while to get the licenses I think it’s still worth it, and if you’re a musician you should give it a try. Do it the right way…do it the legal way !
Best luck for MXTabs!
