A Look At Cigar Box Banjos
In Peanuts Guide to Life, the collection of one-frame wisdoms of Charlie, Lucy and Linus, cartoonist Charles Schultz advises, "As soon as a child is born, he or she should be issued a new dog and a banjo." Good advice for anyone wanting the right start. The idea begs two questions though-what kind of dog and which type of banjo? The answer to the first is obvious, it's a beagle. The second answer concerning the right banjo is a little more elusive.
Many different types of high quality banjos are available. There are metal ones, some use wood and plastic; others involve a combination of each. There are banjos that have their beginning with other instruments, ukuleles, guitars or mandolins. There is a stand up type made from a bass, definitely not your father's drumhead with strings. String sets vary too--there are banjos with one, three, four, five, six, up to ten strings. They come with open backs or closed backs, with or without pickups for amplification. Considering all the possibilities can boggle your mind.
Cigar box banjos often get lost in the shuffle. They are often simple instruments that long ago were made by beginning players from whatever components they had available at the time. Often the first exposure a beginner had to music was from a cigar box made from scratch. Today cigar box banjos can be made from scratch or from a building kit that has all the basic components. Even though they are relatively simple to make their quality of sound and playability doesn't suffer. It depends on the effort and commitment to excellence the builder is willing to make. Whether made from scratch or from a kit, the builder can let his or her creative imagination run wild while building a unique, well playing instrument.
Mark Twain had some experience with the banjo sound. He recognized that what to some was painful and piercing was plunky hollow and incisive to others. "Good sounding banjo" was a relative term dependent on the music and the hearer as much as on the instrument. Twain also remarked that a gentleman was a person who knows how to play a banjo but doesn't. He recognized that the experience of banjo playing and that inimitable sound couldn't be matched. The cigar box banjo doesn't play quite as loud as a conventional banjo. With care and craftsmanship, many players use the cigar box to create a deeper and mellower sound.
Many well known banjo players and many well known people who are not so well known for their banjo playing got their first exposure to making music with a cigar box instrument. Freddie Hart, whose 1971 country hit "Easy Lovin'" peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard chart, grew up in Loachapoka, Alabama in a large, sharecropping family of fifteen children. He got started musically by cobbling out a cigar box instrument using strings made of wire from the copper coil of a Model T Ford.
Jim Reeves made his first instrument from a cigar box and rubber bands. Stringbean Akerman made his first banjo using thread from his mother's sewing kit and a shoebox. Creating what would hardly be considered a musical instrument by many today, these artists and many others developed the roots of their iconic musical style from the very rudiments of instrument making.
Carl Sandburg, "the American Bard", tried his hand at a willow whistle, than a comb with paper over it, a tin fife, a flageolet (a type of wooden flute), and an ocarina. Another example of one far more famous as a writer than a banjo player, nevertheless played his own brand of music, especially early in his life. His first stringed instrument was a cigar box banjo where he cut and turned the pegs and strung the wires himself. He claimed to play none of these instruments well, but each of them, and in his view, especially the cigar box banjo, helped define who he really was.
What ties all these folks together is their gift of originality, the minutest part of that originality may have been sparked by these early-in-life experiences. But if you can in the minutest way identify with that experience, then my work here is done. Now that we have the banjo, let's go get a beagle.

UFC 88 Flashback: Rashad Evans Earns Respect
Rashad Evans didnt scream about demanding respect in his prefight interviews because hes smart enough to know that respect must be earned. He earned it and then some with a devastating 2nd round TKO of Chuck Liddell in the main event of UFC 88.
If Evans needed any more validation of how little respect he was getting, he could have taken a look at the UFCs text message prediction poll of the main event which favored The Iceman by a whopping 81% to 19% margin. Or he could have listened to the UFC announcers, who had all but penciled Liddell in for a return to light heavyweight title contention after his inevitable victory.
From the opening horn, Evans showed no fear of Liddells once legendary power. Instead, he danced and moved (which was dumbly criticized as showboating by the UFC announce team), using his slick footwork and speed to dart in and out of range of Liddells punches. In the process, he was able to use his superior handspeed to get off first. His punches werent exactly highlight reel power shots at this point, but were nonetheless effective as evidenced by a cut opened under Liddells eye.
The end was to come in the 2nd round. Liddell backed Evans up near the cage wall and went to throw an uppercut. Simultaneously, Evans responded with an overhand right that landed quicker, harder and more accurately. The perfectly placed punch knocked Liddell out cold and referee Herb Dean jumped in to cover him up and wave off the fight without taking a second look.
Rashad Evans raised his record to 17-0-1 with the TKO victory. Liddell, meanwhile, saw his record drop to 21-6.
Liddells loss notwithstanding, it was a good night for UFC veterans as Rich Franklin and Dan Henderson won their fights in impressive fashion. Franklin looked particularly sharp in dismantling tough Matt Hamill, eventually prevailing by 3rd round TKO.
This was the UFCs first trip to Atlanta and despite a good attendance the crowd itself was somewhat disappointing. In a marked contrast to the knowledgeable and enthusiastic fans at the Target Center in Minneapolis for UFC 87"arguably the best MMA crowd ever at a US venue"the live crowd at Phillips Arena often acted as if they were at a taping of Georgia Championship Wrestling. Every foreign fighter was booed mercilessly"including South Korean Kim. Perhaps the audience didnt realize that South Korea has been a US ally since its establishment after WW II.
More problematic was the crowds utter lack of respect for the fighters postfight. Poor Dong Hyun Kim was booed during his postfight interview like he was Professor Toru Takana cutting a heel promo on Mr. Wrestling 2 after winning the Georgia Heavyweight Title by throwing salt in his opponents eyes while the referee was distracted. Not quite the respect that a 4th degree judo black belt whod just won a very tough fight deserves. Even Rashad Evans was booed after his dominating KO victory.

Searching For The Best Video Slots
Video slots are popular and becoming more so all the time. These are incredibly fun games to play, as are many online casino games. Of course, the fact that you could win some money as you enjoy these games makes them even more attractive. You could win anywhere from a couple of dollars to some very substantial winnings, but it is always fun to play these casino games regardless of the prizes.
The way to improve your chances of winning some money from these online games is to look for the best video slots around. Of course, you might not know where to even begin your search. You should not rely on the word of the gaming sites themselves, since all of them will certainly tell you that their video slots are the best ones on the web.
So if you cannot take the word of the online casinos, who can you trust? The best way to decide which of these sites are the best ones to play on is by reading the reviews which other people who have played the video slots you are thinking about. Take a look at the ratio of positive to negative reviews and choose accordingly, but make sure to read the reviews themselves, since things are not always what they seem.
Some less scrupulous sites will write their own glowing reviews and others will pay people to write favorable comments about their games. Whenever you see unreservedly positive reviews, especially if there is a large number of them, look closer. If the reviews seem a little too professionally written (or just too positive), then these may be produced by the site themselves. This should make you think twice about playing on these sites, since if they do this, what else might they be dishonest about?
Friends and family can also be good sources of information. While they may not know for sure which sites have the best video slots, they may have some firsthand experience with video slots and other online games which can help you to make a better decision.
There is also the option of figuring it out by trial and error, though you should be careful, not putting too much of your money into the video slots at any site until you have played enough to have a good feel for how things work there. Your own personal experience is the only source which is more valuable (and more reliable) than those of friends and other gamers.
These are the most important things to look for in your search for the best video slots. You will still have to try some out for yourself, but as long as you stay away from disreputable sites and go slow, you will be able to play the slots safely, have fun and maybe even come away a winner!

3 Steps To Get Rid Of My Belly Fat
You know that one of the biggest problems we have is trying to get rid of belly fat. There are two main types of belly fat. Around our internal organs is Visceral fat and this helps protect them. The other main fat is Subcutaneous fat. This is the jiggly stuff right under your skin and that is what you want to get rid of.
You need to know a few basic points first before you can understand how to get rid of your belly fat.
The least effective exercises for getting rid of belly fat are abs exercises. Sit-ups and crunches will indeed tone up your stomach muscles but they don't shift the belly fat.
Doing the same cardio exercises three times a week will bore you to death before it gets rid of any large amount of belly fat. You need to combine cardio with resistance training to get real results.
All the fancy pills and tablets do not work and are a waste of money.
Before you buy many of the so called health foods read the label. You will find that many of them are packed with sugar and additives. So read the label then put them back on the shelf.
Here are the three main principals behind shedding the belly fat and working towards a flat stomach.
Actually starting an exercise program is the obvious first principal to follow if you want to get rid of that belly fat. But not just any exercise program. As I said before, doing hours of crunches will not provide you with great results. You will tone the muscles underneath, but your belly fat will still be there. In order to get rid of the fat on your belly, you need to burn up more calories than you are consuming. Remember, fat is unused energy. You will need to combine cardio with resistance training. This can include cycling, running, swimming, dancing playing sports etc. Combine with resistance exercise such as squats, lunges, light weight lifting, press-ups etc.
Secondly, you will need to start eating the correct foods. Many people don't realize but the most effective weight loss results come from exercise combined with healthy eating. It can be complicated to know what to eat given the amount of information available to us, but a good rule to remember is you are trying to burn off more calories than you are consuming.
Remember that this change that you are making needs to become routine so stick with it for at least twenty one days and you will then be in the habit of exercising and eating correctly and the question, "How can I get rid of my belly fat?" will have left your mind for good.
It really is important to your health and lifestyle to get fit and stay fit! As mentioned routine is important and you should look for a fitness program that you can easily fit into your lifestyle as this will help ensure that you get into that routine that could save your life. I wish you every success in getting fit and shedding that belly fat.

Here are the three main principals behind shedding the belly fat and working towards a flat stomach.
Actually starting an exercise program is the obvious first principal to follow if you want to get rid of that belly fat. But not just any exercise program. As I said before, doing hours of crunches will not provide you with great results. You will tone the muscles underneath, but your belly fat will still be there. In order to get rid of the fat on your belly, you need to burn up more calories than you are consuming. Remember, fat is unused energy. You will need to combine cardio with resistance training. This can include cycling, running, swimming, dancing playing sports etc. Combine with resistance exercise such as squats, lunges, light weight lifting, press-ups etc.
Secondly, you will need to start eating the correct foods. Many people don't realize but the most effective weight loss results come from exercise combined with healthy eating. It can be complicated to know what to eat given the amount of information available to us, but a good rule to remember is you are trying to burn off more calories than you are consuming.
Remember that this change that you are making needs to become routine so stick with it for at least twenty one days and you will then be in the habit of exercising and eating correctly and the question, "How can I get rid of my belly fat?" will have left your mind for good.
It really is important to your health and lifestyle to get fit and stay fit! As mentioned routine is important and you should look for a fitness program that you can easily fit into your lifestyle as this will help ensure that you get into that routine that could save your life. I wish you every success in getting fit and shedding that belly fat.
