An introduction to travel photography

By Bronson Schecter


Over the past ten years there has been a huge boom in travel photography. This is probably to do with the massive range of professional level cameras that are now available at affordable prices, which means just about anyone can take incredible photographs of their holidays. People take photographs to remember events, or to show their friends where they have been, but many also pursue it as a career and a discipline. For this approach it is not just a nice digital camera you need, but a lot of skills and patience too.

Most importantly you have to buy some decent equipment and get an understanding of how it works. If you want to take photography seriously, you will need a digital SLR, because the money you save on film will soon pay for the extra money forked out, and the ability to review photographs straight away is invaluable. A decent lens is also a necessity as many cameras come with a fixed focal length lens which can be very limiting.

On a par with owning the equipment is having a good knowledge of it. Spend some quality time with the manual and play around with the settings, getting a feel for the effect aperture, shutter speed and ISO (film speed) has on the end result, as well as their relationship with each other.

Now you have your equipment and you have a good understanding of how it works, you can go on to just getting out there and snapping as much as you can. Learning by doing is always preferable than reading, but there are some things you should know just to get you started. For example, midday is not a good time for taking photographs because it makes photographs look shallow when compared with the long interesting shadows that come with late afternoon and early morning. Remember that your surroundings can aid you substantially too. Solid objects like walls or trees can help to steady your hand, and don't be afraid of embarrassing yourself to get a photograph from an interesting vantage point.

As with most other technical skills, getting good at travel photography is a matter of lots of practice. Becoming good at reading situations and what they require only comes with long hours trying out different things in different situations. Before you know it, though, you will be looking at the world through the eyes of a travel photographer.

The Success of Bob Marley

By Leon S. Hooper


Bob Marley has made as big an impact upon popular culture as he has on music. He built a career from his days as a poverty-stricken youth to one of worldwide fame from his adoring fans and respect from his peers. Throughout the 1960s and 70s, his influence was obvious to see. One of the few true reggae artists to cross over into the mainstream with his band, "The Wailers", his image became synonymous with the aspects of his personality he was trying to portray though his music, freedom and spirituality.

His band was originally called "The Teeenagers" in 1963 but after several name changes, they finally decided upon a name that stuck, "The Wailers". After the band reduced in numbers and Marley got married, he worked at several different jobs before he returned to his native Jamaica where he started to take very seriously, the Rastafarian religious movement. It was here where we saw the birth of his now infamous dreadlocks.

The Wailers returned in 1973 but the reunion was short-lived after they broke up just one year later. However, partly due to Eric Clapton's successful cover version of "I Shot the Sheriff", Marley's music enjoyed a renaissance and he continued to record as a solo artist.

He continued to tour with own band, "Bob Marley & the Wailers" and in 1975, they enjoyed the biggest hit of their career, "No Woman, No Cry". It was autobiographical in nature for Marley depicting his life in Jamaican ghetto, Trenchtown. Successful albums such as Exodus and Babylon By Bus followed establishing the band's place in the public's affection.

Marley's reputation grew as an icon of peace and spirituality. He was active in attempting to exert peace in to Jamaica and its warring political factions. His work is still considered to be a first-class example of activism, posthumously, he was inducted into The Rock Hall of Fame in 1994 and also received an award for the distinguished Jamaican Order of Merit citation.

Twenty Eight - Ears Flopping Around In Funny Bunny Halloween Costumes

By Alexander Nathan


Do you think Peter Cottontail would be out of place this Halloween? Well, many people still think rabbit Halloween costumes are viable costume options. In your mind you may be seeing the cute Easter representation seen every spring. But you can create bunny Halloween costumes that have nothing to do with candy or eggs. The rabbit costume can be much more than the standard style we're used to seeing on the little ones.

All rabbits don't have to put you in the mind set of Easter or baskets filled with eggs. Be creative, add your own special touch to the look and make it less traditional. Bunny Halloween costumes can be designed as far away from cute and cuddly as you'd like. Your design can resemble Wily Wabbit or it could have a more real life appearance, your choice.

The traditional thing can certainly be pulled off with no problems; but if you want to step out the box, why not make your rabbit a little more dark and creepy. A movie like Donnie Darko can give you some serious inspiration on bunny Halloween costumes. Forget the fact that Frank wasn't an actual rabbit, this is Halloween remember, rules can be broken!

If you want to be the cutesy rabbit we are so used to seeing then you want to pick a common color. A pastel shade or basic brown will probably work best for this effect. When it comes to the ears, fat and soft with curves will usually provide a friendlier look that kids would gravitate towards.

Realistic bunny Halloween costumes will favor natural colors. Check out any nature website or book for inspiration. Real life rabbits range from pure white to very dark brown, nearly black. The tails usually end in a slightly tapered tip, rather than a puffy ball. If you are really detailed, consider creating paws complete with pads and tiny claws on each finger.

A creative eye can turn a sweet little bunny into a terrifying, buck toothed beast. The options here are endless. Any color can be made scary, even the pastel shades. Consider applying fake blood or carrying a basket full of severed heads. You can be less Easter bunny and more Grim Reaper. It doesn't get much more festive than that!

Children love animals. If your Halloween plans mean wearing your costume in public or at a party, where children may be present, be prepared. Ensure that your tail is attached securely. It is very tempting for some children to tug on Easter rabbit tails and ears, trust me, I have seen it happen.

Because bunny Halloween costumes come in so many variations you'll have no problem finding a direction to go in. One could be an elaborate full body suit; another could be a rabbit ear headband with a detachable tail. Finding the best bunny Halloween costumes to fit your style will help you narrowing your search down to one. So go with the traditional or even the off the wall with your rabbit costume this year and have a ball! Edited by Hetsil Protage

The best travel games for families

By Latham Jamal


Family holidays are great, but the problem is you always have to get there. Long journeys, whether by train, plane or car can be extremely boring, or extremely stressful if you have lots of children to keep occupied along the way. That is where the travel game comes in. Often small and compact or requiring no apparatus whatsoever, they are a convenient way of ensuring everyone is entertained for the entirety of their journey, thus making them fly by. What you don't want, however, is for those travel games to be boring themselves, and so here is a list of the travel games that are guaranteed to keep the family entertained for hours.

The classic board games are often the best, and they are now almost exhaustively transferred into travel versions. Games that require a lot of concentration and time are good for making time seem as though it is going quickly, such as chess, backgammon and checkers. Compact in size, and often coming with magnetic pieces, these games are suited to whatever way you wish to travel.

A standard pack of cards is a form of entertainment that can never get old, because you can never learn all of the games you can play with it. Games like snap, for example, can be perfect for children of very young ages. Older children, teenagers and adults can relish in the more intellectual games such as contract whist and poker.

Some of the best games, however, are those that do not require apparatus. One such game is 'GHOST', and this can be extremely beneficial for children because it can help them be creative with words. First, one person says a letter from the alphabet, then going round clockwise each other player says a letter that goes some way to forming a word. Whoever says a letter that completes a word loses the round and gets the letter 'G' assigned to them, followed by 'H', 'O', 'S' and 'T' for every round they lose. Whoever gets all of the letters of 'GHOST' loses the game.

The ability to bluff makes this game extremely interesting. If no one picks up on the fact that you have said a letter that does not go towards making a word, then the next person to play loses. If you are bluffing and someone does pick up on it, then you lose the round; while if someone picks up on you and you weren't bluffing they get a letter from 'HORSE'. Though there is a lot of choice for how to spend your journeys, it is often the simplest games that make for the greatest entertainment value.

In terms of sketching people, there are numerous issues that come to mind, that happen to be rather difficult to sketch. Although many characteristics will be relatively easy to draw for instance a cheek or forehead. Different facets of an individuals face are more hard to sketch, just like the eyes and mouth. In this post we are going to check out some of the harder features for you to draw.

Let us start with a persons eyes. In order to draw an authentic looking eye, it's essential for you to analyze the persons eye very meticulously. The main element to drawing the eyes will be to make certain you are capturing the way your current model feels and can communicate that in your sketch.

Another aspect we are going to look at will be the nose area. One of the biggest problems when you're sketching another person's nose area is the fact that it really is within a central area, consequently, just about any error you make will probably be extremely hard to be able to cover up.

And so, lets look at the ears. Almost all ears possess a identical shape when compared to anyone else's ears. However some might be even bigger or even smaller sized nonetheless they all have a similar basic form. If you're able to master drawing someones ear, then you certainly should be able to sketch anyones ear.

Which needless to say brings us on to the mouth area. As soon as you master the best way to sketch a realistic looking mouth, you'll bring the complete picture together. The human beings mouth area can bring a great deal of expression for their whole face that you might want to make certain you get that part right.

And last but not least, lets not forget the head of hair. While a good many men and women might simply shade a head of hair in. Hair appears to be more authentic when you can in fact see hair strands on the persons head.

This might seem like a great deal to take in, though with training and perseverance you will be on the right path to becoming an outstanding artist.

Storage Building Kits Revealed

By Robin Marchan


A storage shed is a light structure (generally made of wood) in a back garden used for storage of tools, vehicles, or useful items and is very often used to pursue hobbies like gardening and light engineering. Storage sheds are available in a variety of designs and materials in the market.

Types of Storage Sheds Based on Material. The materials used for storage sheds are wood, plywood, vinyl, metal, steel and Rubbermaid. The materials have various advantages and disadvantages. Wood is the preferred material as it gives an aesthetic appeal. However wood needs to be treated for ultraviolet protection every year and sometimes treatment is also given for protection against pests and borers. Cedar wood is preferred material. Particle wood and plywood are very popular for storage shed sidings. However they are least resistant to water as they get out of shape after repeated wetting and drying. Hence plywood should be avoided in places where it rains frequently.

Vinyl has the advantage of being maintenance free. However vinyl is lower on the visual attractiveness scale. Metal sidings include aluminum, which is light and when anodized gives a good look and lasts a long time. Steel sidings, though cheap, should be avoided as they rust easily. Metal sidings have the least appealing look. Vinyl coated steel has a long life and gives good strength. Rubbermaid and poly vinyl chloride sidings are maintenance free ,requiring no painting, no rust treatment and no rot or pest treatment. One thing that should be looked into while selecting siding material is that the siding material should match with the main building siding material. A different siding material may give a contrasting look to the storage shed.

Do It Yourself Kits Vs Professional Installation. Storage sheds can be professionally installed as well as self assembled. Usually for easy assembly, the parts are numbered in self-assembly type storage shed kits. Also assembly instructions are provided with storage-shed kits. Self-assembly may save money and can be a satisfying though difficult experience.

Sizes & Accessories. The usual sizes of storage sheds are, 12' X 24', 12' X 30', 12' X 10', 10' X 14', 10' X 8', 8' X 6' etc. It is better to opt for a double door. For those who want to keep light engineering machines, a good foundation is necessary. Other accessories that come with storage sheds are windows, shutters, weathervanes etc. Hooks and shelves increase the capacity of the storage shed by utilizing vertical space. The windows should be so designed that they match with the main building.

Building Codes and Laws. In various states there are laws on sheds like zoning ordinance, building codes, deed restrictions, building permits, siding materials etc. It is prudent to go through these before installing a storage shed.

Storage sheds are available in various shapes, colors, patterns and sizes. They can be customized to suit an individual's taste. Smaller sheds are called tool sheds. Larger sheds called barns are used to house vehicles, boats and other large items. The prices range from $300 to $4000 depending upon size, material and accessories in the storage shed.

An Overview Of Poker Blackjack And Other Card Games

By John Fair


One of the things a person needs to understand about certain casino games is that there is much more than luck involved. In particular two card games allow you to take advantage of skill over luck. Some card games such as Poker blackjack and any others that allow you to play against either other players instead of the house, or else negate the houses edge are going to be the ones you should focus on. These are known as the skill games.

What an edge means is that you are not guaranteed to loose. This is the case when you play certain casino games such as dice and slots. Over the long run, which means thousands of hours, you are going to lose. This is not necessarily the case with poker or other card games. The reason is that there is an element in your control. There is no such control when you play dice. Anyone has the same chance as anyone else.

Here is a basic explanation. Say you are playing online poker with someone who does not know the rules. Perhaps they are not skilled at addressing things such as pot odds. This means that when they have a certain hand which is not good and you have the better hand you can bet a large bet and they may make a mistake and pay you off.

This is the reason why you hear of professional poker players and also black jack teams. There was a famous blackjack team from the Massachusetts institute of technology. You will never hear of such a team playing slot machines or roulette. This is because there is no edge to be gained.

When a person spends the time and effort n learning how these various card games are able to be played with an advance level of skill then they will be successful. Online card games have only increased in popularity. This is due to the increased desire to play casino games while not having to travel to the actual brick and mortar place.

This is not the case with live or online poker blackjack and other card games where you are able to effectively use your edge. With these two card games there are people who have and continue to make a profit long term with these online games. They consider themselves to be equity specialists using small edges and investing their money in spots where they will find an advantage and profit. Online blackjack, as well as online poker, are going to be skill games and be the only ones that might become profitable and are not completely based on luck but rather contain a great element of skill.

Since luck is still factor to be taken into consideration especially by new players, it is helpful to train before playing card games for money. The best way to get necessary skills and to understand how to win is to play free games online. There is quite a choice in internet to pick free blackjack or other card game. I also recommend to search for "Facebook blackjack" or even "Facebook Blackjack sweepstakes" - these games offer real excitement and may be played free of charge.

Hip Hop Drum Beats Discovered

By Matthew Tregre


It has become ever so popular for independent recording artists and producers to buy and sell beats online. With this trend comes a lot of traffic from inexperienced artists trying to buy beats online. An inexperienced buyer will easily over pay for a beat online. This article was written from personal experience in hopes of giving some insight, not as a hard set of rules to follow, but a guide. Listed below are things beat buyers should know and understand when buying beats online.

You can't touch, bend, break, fold, or smell rap beats. For that matter, you can't even see them, yet in the music industry, we see them being sold for hundreds of thousands of dollars. Oh ... but you can hear and fell vibrations from beats, can't you. This kind of makes music like the wind, so I guess it's fair to say the music industry is selling "air"... not really, but hopefully you get my point. It's not the price of the beat but the producer or person you are buying it from.

The actual value of a beat or music is based on an underlying perception of its true value, perception being the keyword. Don't rip yourself off by buying a beat online for $500 if the producer has no credibility or his or her image and stature in the music industry doesn't give value to your demo or album sales. Look at what Brittany Spears did on her latest album, take note of the album credits and all the popular "Producer Powers" employed, essentially playing a major part in her attempt to revive her career.

The average rate on the Internet for a "Non-Exclusive" beat license is $0 - $75. With this type of license you are essentially leasing or renting the beat for a given amount of time or copies. The average for an "Exclusive" beat license is from around $75 - $250. This type of license gives you full ownership of the beat, as if you created it yourself. More popularly noted as "work for hire". Note: Some exclusive licenses may restrict resale.

To get the most for your money, and protect yourself from "beat-jackers" (people who steal other peoples beats and resell them) try to contact the producer first to see if he or she is responsive, email or PM seems to be the best method. Don't just buy beats from "Joe Blow" without making some kind of contact first. Trust me, real beat makers who are truly vested in their craft make themselves available and they'll be happy to hear from you (it builds their ego) and will more than likely work a deal out with you if you buy more than one beat from them. If a seller takes more than two days to respond, keep it moving. There are literally thousands of other producers who will stop at the drop of a hat to make a $20 sale in hopes of repeat business and a little recognition. Try starting off with producers that you see are already selling beats to others on the net or have their beats rated high or "Hot". Obviously they are doing something right and they are more than likely satisfying other beat buyers needs.

When you buy beats online, make sure there is some type of printable licensing agreement associated with the beat you buy. A licensing agreement/contract will explain the rights you have with the beats and the terms under which you may use the beat.

Cheap exclusive beats are the best deals to get but there are very few producers out there who are willing to sell you an exclusive beat from $20 to $40. Check out thebeattrader.com for some of those type deals. There are not a lot of producers on that site and understandably so, but the site became very popular for selling low priced exclusive beats a few years ago.

The next best thing is a low priced non-exclusive. Remember, the catch with non-exclusive beats is that the beat may have been sold several other times before you buy it, so if you are looking for fresh music, make a list of the producers you like on a site and watch their profiles. Good experienced online producers know to cycle out old beats and update their profiles with new beats at least every 2-3 days.

Examine Several Ways How Player May Win Money Playing Blackjack Online

By Joe Manonn


Also known as "twenty-one, " this is a standard card game played across the world. The rules may vary, but the goal is to get as close to a total of twenty-one points as possible, without going over, or "busting." There are several manners how player may win money playing blackjack easily.

In this game played in many casinos, cards are worth the value on their face. So, this means that a six is worth six points and a five is worth five points. Aces are worth either eleven points or one point. The player may choose either total. All face cards, along with tens, are worth ten. Ten is the most common card by far.

To open the first round, a dealer gives two cards to each player and to himself. The players' cards are all shown face up, and the dealer's is left facing down. They may choose to request a "hit, " or another card, or they may "stand, " and not get another card.

A player is dealt a "black jack, " if he receives a ten and an ace. This is the best hand possible and it usually pays 150 percent of the bet. This is the best way to win and offers the best payout.

If one wishes to win a lot of cash in this game, it is helpful to know that most casinos play games using between 6 and 8 decks of cards shuffled together. Since about a third of each deck is a ten card, most cards dealt will be tens. If a player knows that and also knows that the dealer always takes a hit on 16 and always stands when he has 17, then he has created the best odds available in a casino for himself.

When a player is dealt a hand totaling eleven, he may choose to "double down." This means that he can double his bet and take one and only one card. This often results in a total of twenty-one because, as mentioned before, ten is the most common card. Doubling down is the second best way to win money in this game.

If a player receives two of the exact same kind of card, like a pair of threes or two sevens, he may choose to "split, " against a poor hand showing by the dealer. In order to split his hand, the player should double his placed bet and each of his cards forms the beginning of a new hand. By doing this, the player may win twice. This is yet another way how a player can win money playing blackjack. Beyond the ways mentioned above, players can do even more to help their chance of winning by studying the various hand combination and how they should play against whatever card the dealer is showing in any situation.

Before playing in any gaming website, please check blackjack game rules and site reputation. It's very recommended to start playing free gaming sites before switching to real money. Also, consider using Facebook Blackjack Applications - some of them offer exciting gaming experience with free blackjack. Search Google for "Facebook Blackjack" or "Facebook Blackjack Sweepstakes" to get the best Facebook games.

Pay Less on Video Games

By Connie Maire


Anyone who enjoys playing video games will find that it is perfectly simple to spend hundreds of dollars every single year on the latest releases. When each video game costing $50 or more, it is perfectly simple to purchase a few of these every month and therefore be left with a fairly hefty bill at the end of the year. However, there are some things that you can do in order to reduce the costs of these video games, and therefore you should consider some of these following tips if you want to know how to save money on video games.

One idea would be to purchase second-hand games rather than new ones. By purchasing second-hand games you are always going to get a reduced price, and while you will not be able to get new releases through this method in most cases, you can certainly pick up some of the older games at a much cheaper rates.

If you are willing to wait for the prices to drop then this is always a very good idea as well. New releases will certainly come out at high prices, but over the months their costs will begin to drop. As such, if you work through this method you can simply purchase new releases a few months down the line and save money this way.

You could also go and look for sales in different shops as well. It is not necessarily going to be common to find new releases on sale, but you will always be likely to find special deals on older games. As such, you can shop around a little bit and find some fantastic bargains through this method as well.

Purchasing games over the Internet is another fantastic way of saving money as well. If ever you are aiming to purchase again, using the Internet is pretty much the best method that you could take advantage of. Not only will you find new releases and older games at cheaper rates, but you will also be able to get your game delivered straight to your door and so a lot of the hassle is taken out of the experience as well.

Or perhaps you might simply consider the idea of renting going south rather than buying them. If you were to purchase a game that only takes you about 10 or 15 hours to pass, then you may not be getting great value for money. Instead, why not run the game out for a weekend, pass it, and then take it back to save money.

These are just a few very simple ways of saving money on video games.

Dynamic Microphones - Using Them On Stage

By Brian Scott


While searching for a microphone to utilize for a live show, longevity, adaptability, and quality are just several of the factors that you should certainly consider. Dynamic microphones feature the strength and durability needed to make it through the elements that come with a live concert. Made with a couple of components, performers don't have to to be concerned with having to handle a sensitive piece of equipment. Due to their capacity to resist a number of different elements of a live performance, these could be just the most suitable option for performing artists.

They're not only strong, they're cheaper compared to other ones. When deciding to buy a few for a music group, affordability is a key component. Musicians and singers that are on a tight budget yet do not plan to compromise quality quite often browse dynamic mics thanks to how solid they are. These microphones are generally waterproof which can be brilliant as soon as the elements of weather begin to occur.

Vocalists desire sturdy gear in order to be safe in various conditions and factors. With dynamic microphones, a little bit of rainfall is very little factor in worry. If vocalists are certainly not playing live in an outdoor show, sweat and also the moisture created from an individual's breath may also in time threaten and deteriorate equipment. By selecting dynamic mics, performing artists will understand that they're selecting a lasting product.

Along with its durable exterior, these will stand high sound pressure levels. This means that they are better for dealing with loud tones which are affiliated with electric guitar amps and drums. The reason why they'll take on and endure loud sounds better than other microphones is due to the technique it is constructed.

They also feature a magnet and wire coil that acts towards the forms of sound achieving a current, and then pushes out the sound. Often it is identified as a little transportable loudspeaker. Mainly because the microphone is constructed so easily, it provides a minimal frequency response. Because of this reserved frequency response, not all the sound frequencies are processed. Some people would likely dispute that the sound may not be absolutely complete and this is a minor loss if you need to combine different equipment of a live show.

Many are supplied with power supplies or perhaps demand battery packs. Generally coping utilizing a power supply is generally a headache. It needs extra space to locate a place to position a power supply, and in many cases the area really needs to be in an area which is secluded so the musicians and singers never stumble over it. In cases where a mic requires batteries, this tends to sink and deplete cash. Frequently paying for batteries to replace them may likely be an aggravation.

Using In Ear Monitors Improves Your Voice

By Olivia Long


If perhaps you've never made use of in ear monitors on stage when singing then you are likely to be blown away at the improvement they cause to your performance. Even the most affordable types operate nicely enough to be worth the money and will supply your vocal performance an immediate enhancement.

I've forever said and I persist to reveal that the best thing any individual can execute to grow their vocal singing is by figuring out how to listen closely. Listening is connected to hearing. Making use of these monitors you are have the ability to perceive your vocals easily and as a result you should certainly sing stronger right away for the reason that it is so much less difficult to listen to yourself. The first moment I put these products in I used them for a rehearsal with the music group I play in and after just a couple of tunes the guys announced "you've never sang finer!"

That is not the best part though. You can find different styles of earbuds to choose from for these systems and some of them are sound isolating. This will help to diminish the stage volume in your ear canal, but still permits you to listen to your singing properly.

The final result of this naturally is usually that you are conserving your hearing. Not only that but you'll probably see that you're less tired in the end of a show or rehearsal when you use them as well.

The in ear monitor kit I bought was about the lowest priced ones I could find. Often I wouldn't purchase the least expensive however I was new to using them and desired four receivers so the entire band could all carry one too, therefore I opted to shell out less cash on this occasion. However I'll likely upgrade it with a better system over the following year or so. It certainly offers more than confirmed it's worth to me!

If you've ever asked yourself how you can listen to yourself more effective when performing (while not impacting your ear canal) and be capable to enrich your music performance on top of that, then this is absolutely the solution to undertake it! Since I have purchased them I'll by no means switch back to using floor wedges again.

A History of a Deck of Cards and Its Suits

By Thomas Kearns


Cards were not introduced into Medieval Europe until the second half of the 14th century. At this time they were referred to as "Saracen Cards," and were brought to Europe by merchants. Cities were burgeoning with rural folk who had survived the Plague and moved to the urban centers. Here, they became a new group of middle class merchants and craftspeople. With the easing of the poverty and ignorance that marked the middle ages, new trade groups, guilds, and universities began to emerge once again, and science was no longer relegated to sorcerers. There was more time for the pursuit of pleasure, leisure, and play.

During the early Renaissance, books, cards, and paintings were manufactured by hand. A community of art and science appreciators formed and became the primary factor in the spread of card games across Italy. By late--th century many illustrated card-manual manuscripts had appeared in a number of key cities in several countries, including Viterbo near Rome in Italy, in Paris, and in Barcelona. Thanks to traveling artists and scholars, the popularity of the game steadily grew: in the early 15th century a single craftsman sufficed to satisfy the card requirements of a city; but by mid century there was need in multiple fulltime shops.

Because this was a somewhat foreign form of amusement, not everybody embraced it. Some felt it threatened the fabric of society's mores and morals. They saw it as a game where gamblers and bettors were in cahoots with the devil. During the protestant Reformation cards were rather dramatically referred to as "devil pictures."

In spite of or because of this, the popularity of cards persisted. Even Mary, Queen of Scots was a major bettor and enjoyed the game, shockingly, even on Sunday. The compleat Gamester was published in the late 17th century in London, relating details of more than a dozen games and their basic strategies. Particular facilities - casini - were established in Venice for aristocrats and courtesans especially for card games. From these Venice casini, a game called primero found its way all over Europe and was transformed into poker some time later.

In time, women as well as men, farmers and merchants as well as courtesans and nobles were able to enter the games and found symbols of themselves represented in the cards. A Swedish deck that became very much the rage, was comprised of these suits in order of ranking: sun, king, queen, knight, dame, valet and maid. Those ribald Florentines played with cards that pictured nude dames and dancers, with the dancers being the low suit.

There was no standard number of cards or designs in a deck at that time. The number of cards could vary from 36 to 40 to 52. The suits of the time were symbolic of wealth, tasty victuals, military defense, and sports popular with the court. These were coins, cups, sabers, and clubs. Signs familiar to us were in use in France in the 15th century: in red, Couers (Hearts) stood for the church, carreaux (a rectangular floor tile) represented the merchant class; in black, there were piques (spear and arrow heads) depicting state authority, and trefles (trefoil clover leaf) as a sign of the farmers. Some brave soul at one point along the way ditched the vice-royals for queens.

Time passed and the deck of cards we recognize today was formed, whereby a deck of 52 cards with- various rankings compiled 4 different suits. The familiar Clubs, Spades, Diamonds and Hearts are the suits with Aces, Kings, Queens and Jacks usually weighing in at a value of 10. The non-face cards, 2 through 10 are each counted at face value.

Concepts In Mother Son Wedding Songs

By Lise Rina


What to know about mother son wedding songs comes down to understanding several different things. For one, most songs appropriate for the dance that will occur between the groom and his mother are readily apparent on their face. They are generally extremely well-known traditional or contemporary songs and will be sure to bring a smile and a light step to the groom and his mother when they dance.

These songs are usually played when the time has come for the groom to dance at his wedding with his mother. Some are timeless and considered music standards while others are of a more contemporary nature yet still are so deeply meaningful to the mother and her little boy -- which is what she will always think of the groom as no matter how old he is -- that they are sure to become standards.

In selecting such songs, there isn't generally any hard and fast rule, though in many cases the particular piece might be something that the two enjoyed together during their lives. If that will be the case, make sure that the time for the playing of the song is at some appropriate point at the reception to highlight a song that speaks to the deep relationship a mother and her son will always share.

In that regard, there are at least several dozen quality websites that have lists which a wedding planner or bride and groom can make use of to plan the playing of these special songs with the wedding reception musical director or DJ. Such songs are considered to be performances of a signal nature, and pay homage to the special relationships between a sibling and a parent.

There are many different lists of songs considered appropriate for the mother and son dance, with no end to the variation one can include. Certain all-time standards available include the timeless classics such as something traditional like the "I'll Always Be Your Mother." This particular piece tugs at the heartstrings in a sweet and loving way.

There are also a number of other traditional pieces that include the now-classic song "Wind beneath My Wings" by Bette Midler and the traditional wedding song for a mother and her son called "A Wedding Day Wish for My Son." Both pieces are of such a plangent and heartwarming nature that it's a sure bet that almost no son and his mother will be able to avoid shedding a tear or two while it is played.

On the contemporary front, more and more songs are making their way into the wedding reception signature song pieces. There is almost no end to the range of musical stylings or wedding themes, either. For example, the Mariah Carey hit song "Hero" is particularly appropriate, as well as Celine Dion's piece "Because You Loved Me." Finding an appropriate song is actually very easy these days.

What to know about mother son wedding songs, then, is that these signature musical pieces will be the songs that pay homage to the relationship a groom had with his mother, who was actually the first and most important woman in his life up until he became married to his new bride. They will serve to bring joy and happiness to a mother and her son as they share their special dance, too.
