Norwegian Pearl: How are the beds set up in an oceanview stateroom for a family of 4?

I’m going on a cruise with my husband and 2 kids on the Norwegian Pearl next month. We booked an ocean view (porthole) stateroom for 4 (located on deck 4). I can’t seem to find any pictures or deck plans that explain the bed set up for an ocean view room with 4 occupants. All the pictures and plans just show for 2 occupants. Just want to know what to expect so I can prep the kids. Any explanations or pictures would be appreciated! Thanks.

I suggest you get in touch with your travel agent or the cruise line. Like you say, nothing can be found on the net and it not even says something about a couch which can be made into a bed.

MTV Unplugged in New York $4.80 The last Nirvana collection recorded before the untimely death of Kurt Cobain, Unplugged caught many by surprise with its stripped down, neo-acoustic offerings with a bridled fury. When Cobain sings, “I swear I don’t have a gun, I don’t have a gun” with clenched teeth (instead of an open howl) and when the haunting strains of “About a Girl”–from their earliest LP–chills even with quieted guitars…

Pearl Harbor (Two-Videotape Set) (60th Anniversay Commemorative Edition) [VHS] $0.99 To call Pearl Harbor a throwback to old-time war movies is something of an understatement. Director Michael Bay’s epic take on the bombing that brought the United States into World War II hijacks every war movie situation and cliché (some affectionate, some stale) you’ve ever seen and gives them a shiny, glossy spin until the whole movie practically gleams. Planes glisten, water sparkles, trees b…

Choosing Contemporary Wedding Bridal Jewelry at Online Stores in Dallas, Texas

A bride to be should take several things into consideration when choosing her wedding bridal jewelry from online jewelry stores. Among these, of course, are her personal preferences and taste as well as cost. If the budget is generous, a bride can get a complete pearl wedding bridal jewelry set with pearl earrings, a pearl necklace and a pearl bracelet. If classic pearls are beyond the wedding budget, a bride to be can still choose the more affordable but just as lovely beaded wedding bridal jewelry set with cultured or fresh water pearls. These are available from online jewelry stores even as far inland as Dallas, Texas.

Another consideration a bride to be should take when choosing her wedding bridal jewelry is the kind of wedding she plans to have. If her wedding is going to be grand, her wedding gown is likely to be just as elaborate and so should her jewelry be. On the other hand, a simpler wedding will mean choosing a more minimalist wedding gown and similarly simple or more non-traditional jewelry.

There are so many styles of wedding dresses to choose from, whether in Dallas, Texas or elsewhere in the country. The kind of neckline the wedding gown has will affect the choice of wedding bridal jewelry.

If the gown has a very high neckline that covers the neck, the bride to be can forego wearing a necklace and just wear stunning earrings. Alternatively, she can opt for simple stud earrings and an opera necklace. This means a single strand that reaches below the bust. For a bateau or boat neckline and a jewel or round neckline, a choker necklace works best. This could consist of one to three short strands that fit closely around the base of the neck. A collar necklace, which is a much shorter choker that fits around the middle of the neck, is more suited to a very low neckline or a strapless gown. A matinee necklace which reaches the top of the bust looks good on a bateau neckline, jewel neckline or very low neckline. Finally, a princess necklace, which reaches the hollow of the neck and usually features a pendant, works with any neckline except the very high neckline.

The sleeves of the wedding gown on the other hand determine whether or not the bride should wear a bracelet. Long sleeves are best left without distracting bracelets. Wedding gowns with no sleeves or those with short or three-quarter sleeves can be enhanced by a bracelet, though.

Finally, the exact shade of the wedding gown determines the color of the wedding bridal jewelry. If the wedding gown is stark white, the wedding bridal jewelry should lean toward being silver or platinum. If the wedding gown is ivory, the wedding bridal jewelry should be golden. If the wedding gown is off white, the wedding bridal jewelry can either be golden, platinum or silver.

In the same way that the bride to be used both her heart and her head in choosing her groom, she should do the same in choosing her wedding bridal jewelry. With the wide range of gorgeous but affordable wedding bridal jewelry available from online jewelry stores in Dallas, Texas, a bride to be will surely set her heart on some.

Guitar Pedal Board Case

The use of rhythm and song has long been used to express meaning, and feeling and accompany rituals.

Guitar Pedal Board Case

Music has been part of human life for as long as anyone can trace. Early civilizations of humans used music as a way to communicate and express feelings. Out of all of the musical instruments that we see in our society today and use on a regular basis, there is one instrument that stands out in musical history, the drum.

The history of drums is interesting and unique. When you examine this instrument historically, you will find that drums have had a place in almost all cultures around the globe. Variations of drums and drum sets occurred in many different cultures, the standard variety of a drum consisted simply of a hollowed out log or gourd with a piece of skin stretched taunt. Different sizes of gourds and logs created different sounds and beats.

The African Influence

In most African cultures, drums were very important in the use of rituals and religious ceremonies. The people of different African tribes relied on the use of drums to express themselves and when the slave trade began, the drums made the journey across the ocean as well.

African drums and drummers provided a unique sound that heavily influenced Western Rock and Roll music. Those same rhythms and beats still provide a strong influence in today’s sounds.

The Early Drum Set

When it was discovered that one player could play two or more drums at the same time, people started placing groups of drums together for one musician to play. These groups were comprised of an assimilation of drums of different cultures and from all around the globe. Cymbals and tom tom drums were brought in from China and the size was adjusted to allow for ease of play when played with drumsticks.

In the early 1930’s, musicians slowly discovered with the proper drum placement and a lot of practice, one musician could handle a set of drums, and an entire band of drum players was not required anymore. Thus, a basic kit evolved and took place.

In An Early Kit

The early drum kits were simple in their design, they typically consisted only of:

1) A bass and foot pedal

2) A snare drum

3) Tom Toms

4) A hi hat cymbal

5) One or two sets of hanging cymbals

The Evolution Of The Drum Set

In the 1930’s the drum set was heavily influenced by the sounds of the time, and the early forms of Rock and Roll music. The sounds had a strong basic beat backing them.

In the 1950’s as Rock and Roll music began to develop, the sounds became more complex and likewise, the drum sets became more evolved, with new additions added to them. Rockers began expanding the drum kits adding more cymbals and tom toms drums to them. In addition, as time went on, electronic drums were added to the drum kits as well. All of these additions allowed the musicians to expand their sounds and diversify their music.

Types Of Drum Kits

In the past, as drums evolved and drum kits developed, new companies were formed and products were fine-tuned and made better. The Ludwig Drum Company is known as one of the most influential and historical drum companies of our time.

The Ludwig drum company was started by a young man who enjoyed playing the drums. He could not find a bass pedal that would hold up to his intense drumming style. He shopped around everywhere and could not find an appropriate pedal, so he fashioned one out of wood. The pedal was superior to anything else on the market. His brother, felt that an even stronger pedal could be created out of a metal product, so they teamed up to create an even better bass pedal. Thus, the Ludwig Drum Company was born.

Ringo Starr, the famous drummer for The Beatles used a Ludwig drum set and was known for preferring the Ludwig drums. He is said to still own the original Ludwig drum set that he played with the Beatles.

There have been many other types of drum kits and company names that have played an important and influential role in the history of drums. Yamaha, Pearl, Tama and Gretsch are all famous brand names whose drums and drum kits have helped form the drum set, as we know it today.

The Future For Drums

What does the future hold for drum sets? No one can be sure. However, with the creation of more and more technology, we can be sure that the sounds will evolve even more. A combination of new sounds and traditional will always be found. And the limit for drum set creation will simply be the imagination of the musicians.
