Are you beat deaf? Research into the memory of marine snails offers hope that patients in the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease may one day be able to restore their lost memories.

Are you beat deaf?

Currently, most neuroscientists believe that memories are stored at the synapses - or connections - of our brain cells. These synapses are destroyed by Alzheimer’s disease, which led to the common belief that the memories lost by Alzheimer’s patients were irretrievable. But new research from the University of California, Los Angeles, in the US, contradicts the idea that long-term memory is stored at synapses, and suggests that there could be a way to restore those that are lost. "That's a radical idea, but that's where the evidence leads,” said David Glanzman, one of the lead researchers, in a press release. “The nervous system appears to be able to regenerate lost synaptic connections. Scientists know that in both Aplysia and humans, long-term memories require the hormone serotonin to help them form. Source: ScienceDaily. BANG! The Drum School. Study Drums and Percussion Worldwide with Chuck Silverman. <<Previous Next>> I get a lot of requests for patterns that are very typical sounding, useful, and relatively standard.

Sounds like rudiments to me! Here are four typical patterns that can help you get a grip on "latin" patterns. Patterns "a" and "b" are the cascara pattern in the 2-3 clave direction, pattern "b" adding accents. The bass drum, well, please do experiment. Back to top Here is one simple application of the rumba clave, from A Master's Approach to Timbales, the book I wrote with Changuito! The clave is a rhythmic pattern which can be found throughout many different styles of music.

Here’s an exercise using either singles or paradiddle style sticking, which is based on either the son or rumba clave. If you are going to play this using singles, well it’s really straight ahead.

But will its acoustic guitars have the same effect on our laundry - or will it just dampen our enthusiasm? Let's strip down that WD32SCE model name.

Festival d'Avignon - ACCUEIL. Guitar Lesson - Sacred Geometry: Simplifying the Fretboard. By Jude Gold & Pat Martino (in collaboration with Guitar Player Magazine) If there’s one common misconception people have about geniuses, it’s the notion that these stellar intellects engage only in the most strenuous of thought; that in order to even hold a conversation with one of these brainiacs you need an Ivy League PhD, an IQ of 200 or more, and a bulbous cranium that makes you look like a character from Star Trek.

Guitar Lesson - Sacred Geometry: Simplifying the Fretboard

In reality—as brilliant inventions such as the wheel, the light bulb, the magnetic guitar pickup, the TV dinner, and the Pet Rock all so vividly prove—the most ingenious ideas are often the simplest. And if the mark of true genius is the ability to find simple, head-slapping, gosh-why-didn’t-I-think-of-that solutions to complex problems, then Pat Martino is truly one of the guitar’s cleverest minds. “The guitar is structured like no other instrument,” states Martino, “and it unveils itself in a unique way.
