Musical Education For Better Music Quality Performance


Music is a window of the soul. For many musicians and music lovers, it is more than a fulfillment to create their own music not only for them to enjoy but for their audience as well. Many famous band and orchestra players came up with a good training in music education

Music teachers and trainers can be considered as unsung heroes! What is music without them? How can a music lover be inspired without their encouragement, right?

It is always nice to enjoy the music you make through a mentor. Your skills will take you up to the next level while at the same time enjoying your own kind of music.

Samsung Galaxy Cam (EK-GC110) In Coma Mode!


I bought this camera in 2013, and honestly it didn't disappoint me. It was pricey, but it was worth it due to its extra photo mode functions and photo quality. The only thing I wished for was that it should have been lighter and smaller.

It was the hard drop that its zooming lens hit a stone...then it ended everything! :(

The result...it can no longer take a photo and every time I press the camera, the "zooming lens error" kept popping up on the screen.
The only good thing is that I can still turn it on, and can still view all the photo files in the gallery, and can edit or delete them. It still worked when I connected it to my PC, so just to be sure, I copied all my photos in here and moved it to my notebook storage as back up.

A bad lesson learned; - I didn't get any warranty when I bought it. I went back to Best Buy where I bought it and they said they can't do anything about it considering the fact that I didn't have any warranty, but they suggested me to take it to the Geek Squad. Obviously, this means I have to shell out some more bucks for the repair if they can possibly do it.

Oh well, I still haven't brought it for repair yet. This camera needs a lot of extra care. Just even a slight drop on a hard surface can ruin everything. Handling it requires extra caution!

So, can you spot them? Here are 3 tips to help you see them, - and keep them too!:


  1. While great employees follow work processes, remarkable ones find ways to make those processes even better! Remarkable employees continue to tweak every workflow, rework a timeline or adjusting work processes.

Warnings ( & Cures) Regarding That Harmful Habits of Yours

Do you nail bite? - This maybe a sign of an underlying mental health condition like an impulsive control disorder or anxiety. Constant nail biting doesn't likely to cause a long-term damage with your fingernails but it can lead to an infection.
Now, here's a tip that sounds funny, but research proved it really works.
Go find a bitter-tasting clear polishes which are designed to discourage nail biters from biting. You can usually find them in any pharmacy.
If you got "pinworm" out of nail biting, you'll end up in the pharmacy looking for deworming solutions, too, right?

Do you love to listen to loud music? - A one tune-fueled cardio session could have the ability to damage your eardrums! Based on a Ghent University researchers in Belgium, they found out that after an hour of listening to music via headphones or earbuds with a 50-100% of an ipod's max. volume shows that subjects suffered a significant short-term hearing deterioration. Repeated exposure over a period of time can lead to permanent hearing damage.
The most practical way of avoiding this is to turn down the volume of your music less than the maximum percentage volume needed. Use sound-insulating headphones if you are in a noisy setting.

Using high heels daily. - Wearing them everyday can hurt more than just your feet. Common studies have proven that high-heeled shoes can disrupt blood flow in your legs which can lead to venous hypertension and varicose veins. They can also alter your gait or posture as they put a strain on your leg muscles and tendons.
Choose a shorter, low-wedged heels as much as you can. They can distribute your weight better and can even lessen the pressure off the balls of your feet.

Are you a soda lover? - Artificial sweeteners (aspartame & sucralose) are found in your favorite soft drinks. Consuming large amount of them can lead to weight gain. Evidences suggest that fake sugars such as artificial sweeteners activate the brain's reward pathways differently than what natural sugars do. As a result, you don't feel satisfied, so your appetite continously increases.
As a solution, try switching your drinks to juice, or better yet develop the habit of drinking water.

Do you have a sedentary work/lifestyle? - A sedentary lifestyle increases your risk to pulmonary embolisms, cancer, diabetes and more complicated illnesses.
Always keep in mind that active movements no matter how small they are, will always be ideal. Study shows that by simply standing or walking around for at least 2 hours or more each day can reduce your risk of diabetes by 12%
