751: The Importance Of Drums in Classical Music
The warp and woof of music are rhythm and melody, and the drums are the rhythm instruments par excellence. It is easier to recognize a song by its rhythm without melody than it is by its melody without rhythm, which shows what a basic part of music is rhythm.
Primitive music is more rhythm than it is melody, Some of this primitive music is trem
752: The Music Industry In Turmoil
There have been questions arising lately as to whether or not websites should be allowed to host lyrics and tablature from copyrighted music. Website owners and internet users have joined forces in claiming that they should have access to this content- while the music industry is holding fast to their copyrights.
The Debate: Should Lyrics and Ta
753: The Tragic Story Of Buddy Holly
Born in September of 1936, Charles Hardin Holley who later came to be known as Buddy Holly was one of the pioneers of rock and roll. He was mainly a guitarist, composer and singer, but his career would only last for about five years due to a plane crash he was involved in when he was only 22 years of age. He was newly married and had an excellent s
754: To Join Or Not To Join
Joiner? I didn't think I was a joiner. I wasn't a Brownie and I left the Girl Scouts before I had to earn a camping badge. I don't camp - unless you call surviving power outages camping.
I survived my childhood without having the sports gene. I didn't join in pick-up games of kick ball, volleyball or anything ball. If the playground supervisor
755: Top 10 Signs Your Addicted to eBay
There are literally millions of people that are striving each and everyday to make an easy buck online. The idea of making money online and especially, making money on eBay, is not new. In fact, the eBay market is a little too saturated if you ask me.
With all the nail-biting, finger-clawing, head to head competition for bids on eBay, I thought
756: Types of Drums
Drums are percussive instruments built by stretching a membrane across an opening in a vessel. The most common property of various types of drums is their pitch. Drums are the one of the oldest and the most omnipresent instruments. Even with the various types of drums present, the most common aspect is the origin of sound. Sound in a drum originat
757: Ukulele ChordsJingle Bells

I will show you how to play the song by using ukulele tablature. Tablature is a music notational system that shows you where to put your fingers on your ukulele in order to play m
758: Useless Bits of Body
Chinese food - my favourite. I'm particularly partial to spare ribs, although I have often wondered why certain animals have bits which are considered "spare."
It is often misquoted that women have one extra rib compared to men, a fallacy which is no doubt biblical in origin. Anatomically, both men and women have twelve pairs of ribs- the lowest
759: Want Your Picture Taken Or Returned
There are three types of photo collections - those in albums, those in boxes and those on refrigerator doors. Refrigerator photos are for people who think outside the box.
I don't like having my picture taken. If a picture is worth a thousand words, there are millions of words available to show why I don't like it.
Because I believe in doing
760: Was The Hula Hoop An Original Idea
Aren't there anymore original ideas? Now "The Simpsons" is a movie. Soon Hollywood will be making "Oceans 21" and Spiderman will be using a walker. One "CSI" turned into three. One reality show turned into an unreal number of them. A picture may be worth a thousand words, but on television the words are repeated.
"Good Morning America" has becom
761: What Did Your Mother Tell You
A mother's work is never done. In fact, a study done by Ohio State University showed that married women with children feel more than twice as rushed in their daily lives than single women do. Their husbands, however, didn't feel more rushed than their single counterparts. Is there something wrong with that or am I rushing - to judgment?

The purpose of the concerts is to provide global awareness for the purpose of providing awareness to people of all ages about the damage to the Earth and how it i
763: Who Knew Toothsome Meant Tasty
Here's a thought I recently sank my teeth into. You know you're middle-aged when you start wishing people healthy birthdays instead of happy ones.
You promise yourself you're going to lose weight, eat better or exercise more. Maybe you promise yourself you're going to do all three, but who promises themselves they're going to brush their teeth m
764: Who Put The Word Age In Marriage
My marriage was the result of opposites attracting. When I got married, I believed everything had its place. So did John, but for him the place was wherever he left something. If you saw John's office, you'd know he thinks a man's home is his castle. In fact, in his office John is Prince of Piles.
If I had a dollar for every time John said, "Do
765: Who Should Save For A Rainy Day
Why should I save for a rainy day? In spite of living in Southern California, I have two umbrellas. I'm more than ready.
The jar of found money on my bureau isn't for a rainy day. It's what my grandmother called mad money. It's for something I don't need - something frivolous. Okay, I haven't been able to think of anything frivolous to spe
