...Articals The Advantages of Using Session Musicians on Your Song Demo Photo By Cliff Goldmacher Why do professional recordings sound, well . . . professional? There are a number of reasons, including high quality microphones, pre-amps, an experienced engineer and a well-designed studio space. But one of the single most important elements in a great-sounding, professional recording is the performance of the session musicians. There is a reason that the job of the session musician exists. It’s these musicians whose talent and studio experience contribute in a major way to the polished sound of a recording. Because there are different rules that apply when you’re recording an artist demo, I’m going to limit the scope of this article specifically to songwriting demos. Shouldn’t I Be Able To Do This Myself? While I am a big proponent of wearing as many hats as you can in your musical career, there are certain areas where it makes much better sense to rely on experts. First of all, it’s extremely important that you take ego out of the equation. There is no shame in having someone else play on your demo. Remember that a songwriting demo is supposed to put your song in the best possible light in order to “sell” it to prospective artists or place it in films and TV shows; it is not supposed to be proof of your studio musicianship. Recording your instrument in the studio requires an entirely different skill set than playing live. For lack of a better description, studio recording...

In 1966 Dr Rett published his findings in several German medical journals which at the time it was well known to that part of the world however it remained in the backwaters of medical concern to the rest of the world even after he has published the disease in English in 1977 due to lack of electronic informations were rarely available. A break through in 1983 as an artical on Rett syndrome appeared in the mainstream of english journal finally raised the profile of Rett Syndrome and put it on the radar screen of many more investigators-this finally a break through and recognised this syndrome, it was therefore named after the doctor whom first discovered and named Rett syndrome.

...Hydraulic Fracturing; Fracking 2 Abstract What are the environmental concerns surrounding hydraulic fracture drilling (fracking) for gas? With the fast expansion of shale gas drilling operations and reduced federal regulations has placed our environment in harm’s way. If the environment is in trouble so are the health of humans and animals. Without proven scientific studies, the gas drilling boom sweeping the U.S. and the world will remain an uncontrolled health experiment of enormous scale. There is much controversy surrounding the impact of this type of drilling on air and water quality, placing gas and oil companies against individuals and groups concerned with environmental and health protection. It is time for federal regulation and tougher oversight control of this out of control drilling. Hydraulic Fracturing; Fracking 3 What Is Fracking Hydraulic fracturing or hydrofracking better known as fracking is a method of mining for natural gas which greatly increases the efficiency of extracting shale gas from deep underground. This method has been used since the 1940’s and perfected by Floyd Farris of the Standard Oil and Gas Corporation. In the beginning the process was simple in its technique of introducing non-explosive...

...Juvenile Diabetes Juvenile diabetes, also known as Type 1 diabetes mellitus is an immune mediated disease. It is a chronic condition that cannot be cured. This type of diabetes requires the person to self-medicate with synthetic human insulin. Juvenile diabetes can affect many organs in the body like the brain, heart, and lungs. A person can have mild to moderate signs and symptoms relating to the diabetes. There are several diagnostic tests that can help determine if diabetes is present. Having a healthy life style [The preceding two words are spelled as one word] and following a healthy diet can help maintain diabetes. Many famous people live with the disease today and are able to [Wordiness--"are able to" means simply "can"] live happy, normal lives. Juvenile diabetes is an insulin dependent disease, meaning people with juvenile diabetes are dependent on synthetic “human” insulin. Their pancreas no longer produces the insulin needed to survive so they have to use synthetic “human” insulin to replace what the body is not making. Synthetic “human” insulin is insulin made using genetic engineering, also known as biosynthetic recombinant “human” insulin. It is grown in E Coli. Insulin is what helps the glucose enter the body ["is what" is awkward. Adjusting for capitalization, try something like "Insulin helps the glucose enter the body"] ’s cells and what provides energy to the tissues and muscles.

...GRE MATH FORMULAE Mixtures first.... 1. when you mix different quantities (say n1 and n2) of A and B, with different strengths or values v1 and v2 then their mean value vm after mixing will be: Vm*(n1 + n2) = (v1.n1 + v2.n2) you can use this to find the final price of say two types of rice being mixed or final strength of acids of different concentration being mixed etc.... the ratio in which they have to be mixed in order to get a mean value of vm can be given as: n1/n2 = (v2 - vm)/(vm - v1) When three different ingredients are mixed then the ratio in which they have to be mixed in order to get a final strength of vm is: n1 : n2 : n3 = (v2 - vm)(v3 - vm) : (vm - v1)(v3 - vm) : (vm - v2)(vm - v1) 2. If from a vessel containing M units of mixtures of A & B, x units of the mixture is taken out & replaced by an equal amount of B only .And If this process of taking out & replacement by B is repeated n times , then after n operations, Amount of A left/ Amount of A originally present = (1-x/M)^n 3. If the vessel contains M units of A only and from this x units of A is taken out and replaced by x units of B. if this process is repeated n times, then: Amount of A left = M [(1 - x/M)^n] This formula can be applied to problem involving dilution of milk with water, etc...

...State terrorism is often a neglected phenomenon in terrorism studies. Discuss how terrorism has been used as a weapon by states over the past 50 years. Is state terrorism fundamentally different from non-state terrorism? Introduction Within this essay I will discuss how states have used terrorism as a weapon over the past 50 to achieve strategic goals. I will then go on to discuss whether it is fundamentally different from non-state terrorism. To start with we must understand what is meant by a weapon. Encyclopaedia Britannica defines a weapon as “An instrument used in combat for the purpose of killing, injuring, or defeating an enemy.” (Britannica 2013). The Oxford English dictionary defines weapon as “An instrument of any kind used in warfare or in combat to attack and overcome an enemy.” (OED 2013). It is clear from both definitions that a weapon is used in combat against an enemy to overcome them. The act is deliberate in such that it is intentional, not by accident. Therefore this essay will examine cases that terrorism is used by the state deliberately, there must be “mens rea” present. Some states can also be defined as a failed state “A state that is failing has several attributes. One of the most common is the loss of physical control of its territory or a monopoly on the legitimate use of force. Other attributes of state failure include the erosion of legitimate authority to make collective decisions, an inability to provide reasonable public services...

...CHAPTER I: INTRODUCTION 1. THEME OF THE STUDY Risk management underscores the fact that the survival of an organization depends heavily on its capabilities to anticipate and prepare for the change rather than just waiting for the change and react to it. The objective of risk management is not to prohibit or prevent risk taking activity, but to ensure that the risks are consciously taken with full knowledge, purpose and clear understanding so that it can be measured and mitigated. It also prevents an institution from suffering unacceptable loss causing an institution to suffer or materially damage its competitive position. Functions of risk management should actually be bank specific dictated by the size and quality of balance sheet, complexity of functions, technical/ professional manpower and the status of MIS in place in that bank. 1.2 INTRODUCTION Risk: the meaning of ‘Risk’ as per Webster’s comprehensive dictionary is “a chance of encountering harm or loss, hazard, danger” or “to expose to a chance of injury or loss”. Thus, something that has potential to cause harm or loss to one or more planned objectives is called Risk. The word risk is derived from an Italian word “Risicare” which means “To Dare”. It is an expression of danger of an adverse deviation in the actual result from any expected result. Banks for International Settlement (BIS) has defined it as- “Risk is the threat that an event or action will adversely affect an organization’s ability...
