play the guitar, or would like to play the guitar. There are equally as many people claiming to have the "miracle" training course that will have you "playing like the pros" in a week (or some other ridiculous time frame). That's impossible and here's why... What if I told you I had an 18 part video series that will teach you how to do brain surgery in 7 days or less. Would you buy it? Would you trust yourself to perform the surgery on another human being? Now granted, that is an extreme example, but the point is there are too many factors involved in playing the guitar to learn in a week. So who am I to tell you anything? Well, I am a retired homicide detective sergeant who has spent his…

The case involving Bland and Encinia started when she was pulled over during a traffic stop. Encinia and Bland both escalated the situation that led to her arrest and later death. I think they are both guilty in their actions of making things worse during the traffic stop. In the past when people have been put in jail some have died there.…
background music, or just to sing along to in the show. For my first piece, I chose Japanese Metal. The song is titled ‘Megitsune” by the group Baby Metal. The song uses very heavy electronic beats along with deep- sounding electric guitar riffs and traditional Japanese folk music. The piece was also very syncopated and upbeat.The first few seconds it gave the impression that it was just going to be pure electric beats. As the song progressed, It fused into a very heavy hard metal sound.…

The purpose of this experiment was to determine the most effective position and mass of a wolf tone eliminator for effectively suppressing the wolf so that it was undetectable to the human ear and, hopefully, completely suppressed. All correctly-proportioned and good quality violoncellos create an unusual phenomenon called a wolf tone when a certain pitch on the instrument is played, and the pitch at which the wolf occurs differs between instruments. On a well-crafted violoncello, this tone…
