From Double Bass to Bass Guitar
If you were a bass player in an orchestra or small band prior to the Second World War, you played a large instrument that was extremely cumbersome to carry around. Apart from a drum kit, no other instrument was so difficult to transport. As the acoustic bass was a quiet instrument compared to instruments in a orchestra or band, it was difficult to hear, but the fine, natural sound quality of the bass was highly prized and...

Collectible Teddy Bears
Practically every child owes a teddy bear and it often remains well loved throughout our lives, or passed on to our children. Many different toys are fashionable with each generation, but the teddy bear has been a constant favorite since the first ones were produced around 1900 and named after Teddy Roosevelt. The story goes that he refused to shoot a captive bear and the teddy bears were named to honor his compassion. Now those... (posted by Margaret Tye 2 years 104 days ago.)

Forex Pips - Why You Must Understand Them
Many newcomers to the Forex market begin trading without fully understanding the importance of Forex pips. Lack of knowledge is one of the quickest way to lose money when trading currency. A pip is the smallest unit of price when trading a foreign currency. It equals 0.0001 ( 4 decimal points), giving a pip value of $10 on a lot of $100,000. If the market fluctuates widely, this can mean a large profit or loss.... (posted by Margaret Tye 2 years 273 days ago.)

Can You Benefit From Omega 3 Fish Oil?
The benefits of omega 3 fish oil are well documented. But many people do not realise that it is essential to maintain a balance between omega 6 and omega 3. Unfortunately many people have a omega 6/omega 3 ratio of 20/1 and need to reduce their intake of omega 6. Experts vary in the ratio they recommend, but people should try to achieve a ratio of between 5/1 and 10/1 and some nutritionists suggest 3/1. Meat is high...

Helping Bedwetting Boys
Many parents worry when their boy continues bed wetting beyond the age when many other children are dry at night, but in many cases there is no need to be alarmed. Many children start becoming dry at about 3 years, but about 10% are still bed wetting at 5 years, with it being twice as common with boys. If a boy is still bed wetting at 6 years then a doctor should be consulted to ensure there is not a physical problem. There are a... (posted by Margaret Tye 3 years 56 days ago.)

Understanding Pips
Many people who want to trade on the Forex market are nervous to try because they don't fully understand pips but realise that making a mistake in their calculations could cost a considerable amount of money. Trading on the Forex market is similar to buying stocks and shares except that instead of paying a broker's commission there is a difference in the selling and buying price of currency and this spread, measured in pips, must...
