  • Post-Seizure Total Amnesia
    An epileptic condition can appear at any time of life, although it is usually caused by childhood injuries or conditions. Diagnosed epileptics display different types of seizures. There are three main categories: Simple Partial seizure, Complex Partial, and Generalized Tonic-Clonic, known as "Grande Mal", French for "large illness". The third type is the big problem – it can erase the memory.
  • Advertising: Search Engines vs. Online Yellow Page Directories
    Business owners are often approached to advertise by paying for inclusion into a directory of phones, maps, and addresses that resemble Yellow Pages to cash in on the concept. In contrast, search engines provide calls to action and a way to buy. Each search result yields descriptive snippets and a link to the site. Super Pages type of listings however gives only a name, address, and map. Serious buyers simply use a browser.
  • Tai Chi Chuan: Moving Meditation, Health, and Philosophy
    It is debated among black belts in martial arts systems which one is the most effective style, and the consensus names Traditional Wu Style Tai Chi as the ultimate. It was rumored that the practitioner would extend his life span by several decades. However there was a major barrier that intimidated all of us and made changing over from Tae Kwon-Do and Karate a challenge: it would take twenty to thirty years to master, and our egos would be humbled starting from the beginning.
  • Amnesia: Loss of Self, Freedom from Inner Fear
    The best authority on the subject of total identity memory loss is the amnesiac patient whose memory has returned. When I tell people of my bout with amnesia caused by an epileptic seizure, they ask if it was frightening to have no memory. They assume that a panic response would be instinctive, but the nervous system’s built-up chronic stress disappears along with all past events.
  • The Importance of Lyrics for Rock and Pop Music
    A good work of music that uses lyrics should go that extra step and use the power of words to be meaningful in its effect on the listener’s social consciousness. American Blues and Folk music artists were known by the people at the grass roots, not the glittery illusion of show business. Injustice was everywhere: civil rights workers were being killed, the Vietnam War raged, and citizens lived in poverty. The people stood up, they marched, they rioted, and they were in need of anthems.
  • How to Write Original Songs
    Songs have to come alive if they're to bring any meaning to the listeners, and like all living things, a seed is required to begin the process. Compulsive songwriters have something they want to get off their chests and they have the good fortune to be able to share their thoughts with an audience. Ask why the song should exist and your mind will provide the theme based on the most recent events that are making you want to reach for your pen.
  • The Rap History Map Shows a Generation Gap
    Rap Music is a contradiction in terms. Classifying Rap and Hip-Hop under the category of music is stretching the definition most generously and it’s unfair to people with talent who can actually play an instrument or sing. This article outlines the roots of this billion-dollar industry that has such a wide audience despite the fact that it’s not music. Music is an art form using melody, instrumentation, and lyrics if there are singers. Musicians work with scales, key signatures, and time signatures when their techniques are applied.
  • Musicians MP3 Pennies Don’t Add Up
    Since the early days of Napster a long struggle between record companies and download sites to establish a system of royalty payments that could trickle down to the people who actually write and perform the music that's being sold. People still buy CDs, but it's become even harder for new talent, or established talent for that matter, to reach the shelves of the record stores. Independent artists have to employ the MP3 streaming and download route in the hope that anyone will hear them.
  • The Future of Fiction Page Turners: eBooks
    People who always dreamed of publishing a book are now lucky enough to be approaching a juncture in time where the unknown basement novelist can express any idea and bring it to the mass audience without leaving the computer. There are diehard readers who insist on toting around a paperback for their reading pleasure, but natural selection is bound to replace the tree-haters with their mere chunk of paper and propel the majority to the familiar hand-held electronic device.
  • ABCs of Business Telemarketing Sales
    People who find themselves out of a job will notice a profession listed in the want ads that is terrifying to most – the dreaded telemarketer job. Call centers have the largest turnover rate, especially those selling to consumers. They have strict monitoring and recording of the outgoing calls, but in business-to-business sales there's more room for freestyle selling, and life becomes easier if you know the techniques. ABC is something that should be kept in mind by the salesman: Always Be Closing!
