Embeds allowing bloggers to easily embed videos from Distrify. Just go to any Distrify film page or player and copy the URL. Paste that URL in any WordPress blog and it will automatically be converted to an embedded Distrify player. If you are logged in to distrify.com it will automatically add your affiliate tracking code to your embeds. Make sure you turn on Auto-embeds in your WP settings and also make sure that the URL is on its own line and not hyperlinked (clickable when viewing the post). The plugin also extracts the still image from the film and saves it as the Featured Image for the post. This actually works for any Embed (not just Distrify) that you embed into your WordPress blog.

It is so distressing to watch tragedy unfold regardless of which part of the globe it originates. But, almost just as worrisome is not knowing what to do, or how to help alleviate a bit of the suffering for those physically or domestically maligned by dire circumstances.

For me (and for many I suppose) it is those who don’t have to, but do so anyway, who are the true heroes. Those who are safe and secure in their comfortable enclaves, who not only deign to intervene, but do so risking life and limb to make a difference regardless of peril.

Amnesty International is such an organization. Comprised of selfless individuals who comprise a collective human consciousness in perpetual action.

The basic tenants of AI’s mission, to campaign tirelessly to end grave abuses of human rights are something the Brooklyn-based band Gold Lake agrees with wholeheartedly. And what does any compassionate world citizen (or band) do? Well, they take action in whatever capacity they can. The band, with the help of a few friends, pulled up their shirt-sleeves and made a song. Listen to their cover of Love’s Alone Again.

To record the cover, Gold Lake teamed up with friends of various bands including Pico Alt (Sufjan Stevens) on violin, Kyle Resnick (Beirut, The National) on trumpet, Steve Mertens (Here We Go Magic, Moldy Peaches) on bass and Carleigh Aikins (Bahamas) on vocals. All in all, this is one heck of an extended family band. The representative love and energy joined Gold Lake in the studio, and their pals from The Wild Honey Pie recorded it on video. Check out the results after the jump. Peace.
