When we as a Nation cut back on Credit Card Debt ... Millions of Chinese loose their Jobs.

Damaged Goods (Dodo Press) $18.77 Upton Sinclair Jr. (18781968), was a prolific American author who wrote over 90 books in many genres and was widely considered to be one of the best investigators advocating socialist views and supporting anarchist causes. He achieved considerable popularity in the first half of the 20th century. He gained particular fame for his 1906 novel The Jungle, which dealt with conditions in the U. S. meat packing industry and caused a public uproar that partly contributed to the passage of the Pure Food and Drug Act and the Meat Inspection Act in 1906. An early success was the Civil War novel Manassas, written in 1903 and published a year later. Originally projected as the opening book of a trilogy, the success of The Jungle caused him to drop his plans. Sinclair created a socialist commune, named Helicon Hall Colony, in 1906 with proceeds from his novel The Jungle.

T Rex Alberta Overdrive Guitar Effects Pedal $169.95 The T Rex Alberta Overdrive Guitar Effects Pedal has that creamy overdrive tone reminiscent of a great sounding, vintage TS-808 unit, but is voiced with slightly more bottom end. When the gain is turned up towards maximum, the pedal behaves much the same as a vintage Tube Screamer. When a more subtle setting of the gain control is dialed in, the result is the perfect 'Blues Tone' - giving the T-Rex Alberta pedal more bite and goosing the midrange (with sweet tube-like harmonics), while still keeping the tone of the player's favorite tube amp. The T Rex Alberta overdrive pedal delivers the goods, night after night.

Rhythm Tech Pro 10 Tambourine $29.95 Representing a major advancement in the art and science of percussion, the Rhythm Tech Pro Tambourine is destined to become the professional standard for sound, feel, and performance. Rhythm Tech Pro Tambourine Features Made of advanced synthetic materials Computer assisted design and manufacturing methods Completely redesigned and ergonomic handle More efficient jingle placement Improved balance Resilient over-molded GLS playing edge Includes case The Handle Completely redesigned from the ground up, the handle is a marvel of ergonomics. Rhythm Tech used two design firms that specialize in designing handles and grips for sporting goods, medical devices and tools to develop the most comfortable and, easy-to-hold handle ever offered for a tambourine. Together we determined the shape, width, length and circumference of the design using over 200 measurement points of eight different human hand sizes and proportions. The handle not only feels great, but also controls the instrument better so that less effort is required to play. The Edge The Pro features an overmolded soft playing edge. The material is molded onto both sides of the frame along with the handle to form a seamless permanent playing surface. You'll notice that there are no pin holes coming through the edge. We achieve this smooth continuous edge by over-molding the soft surface after the tambourine is assembled. This creates a playing surface that provides unparalleled comfort for high volume situations while allowing more subtle control for softer ones. The edge also makes finger rolls easier than ever to execute. Jingles Another innovation, Stainless Steel jingles. Stainless Steel is a harder more durable material that has a truer fundamental pitch. That means less overtones and longer sustain. These jingles have more volume to really cut through. The Pro is also available with our traditional Brass Jingles. Brass has a deeper, chunkier sound that sounds great for recording. Balance Point We adjusted the center of gravity of the instrument ever so slightly so that it would feel lighter and more responsive. The actual shape was modified to move the handle closer in towards the center. In addition the profile of the new handle brings your fingers to a point just past the geometric center. This allows you to drive the instrument with less moment of force. That's what makes it feel more responsive. And finally we completely changed the layout of the jingles. Now they are grouped on the arc to react faster so that you get more sound with less effort. Case The Pro is packaged in it's own tough Poly Propylene case. We designed the Case to protect the Pro in travel situations. Like bouncing around a trap case or Trick Bag filled with all your other essentials. Inside there's a compartment that will hold an Eggz Shaker, or other small easily lost accessories.

Ellen Degeneres American Idol

Ellen Degeneres is the new Paula Abdul on American Idol.

 

Paula Abdul won't be returning in American Idol's ninth season. News accounts recently revealed that famous talk show host Ellen Degeneres will take the seat of Paula Abdul as American Idol fourth judge in next season. Degeneres will be sitting alongside with other American Idol judges Simon Cowell, Randy Jackson and last season's addition Kara DioGuardi.

 

Denegeres admitted that she might lack the credibility in terms of music but American Idol producer Simon Fuller said that her love for music and her understanding of the American audience is expected to bring a unique touch to the panel of judges. Her sense of humor is said to bring warmth and compassion to the show.

After the news about Ellen Degeneres replacing Paula Abdul in American Idol came out, the fans of the show are caught up in surprise, both happiness and sadness, and curiosity. Most fans would say that Degeneres can also do the good side of Abdul. Setting aside Abdul's behavior and alcohol problems, she was a nice judge who wants to give contestants a big hug even after singing like a broken transmission. Ellen also gets along with her audience and is expected to do the same with the future American Idol contestants.

 

Ellen is also very smart and quick and can be a very good competition for Simon Cowell. Both are expected to grace the show with their quips and their one-liners. Ellen is not probably well-educated about music than Abdul. However, when Abdul was a judge, she rarely talks about music, rather, she talks about heart, soul, and all that kind of stuff and we couldn't imagine Ellen doing less of that.

 

Do you believe that Ellen Degeneres will become a good American Idol judge?
