Psychics are people who have mastered the art of using mental powers like ESP (extra sensory perception) to look into the lives and future of other people and predict future events. The word "Psychic" has Greek roots, derived from the word psychiokos or psyche, which means soul or "that which is mental". The word is generally used to describe fortunetellers. Many people have psychic abilities, or the abilities to look beyond the things that are seen or heard or sensed by normal human beings.

Is there someone who cares? We deserve and require mutually supportive relationships. There is no health in being a lone ranger, taking on the world alone. We need a sidekick or two we can count on. We need a sense of community. At our brightest moments, too, we need our community to share our victory, our breakthrough, our joy, our success. We want to celebrate and be celebrated. Each of us has a need to feel that we belong--you, me, even the guy who says he doesn't. It is a basic, healthy human need. Saying we...

We have a karmic connection with them as well. Both of those types of relationships...

Acoustic guitars and their various musical relatives can be traced back thousands of years, but the idea of a guitar using electric currents to amplify its sound had to wait until the 1930s to start to take root. Necessity was, perhaps, the mother of invention here, as the volume of the guitar, used previously in blues and jazz, could not compete with the new sounds of the big band and the shriek of brass instruments. Early experiments with simply adding microphones to guitars had only limited success, partly due to the quality of the tone and partly because of the feedback that could occur as soon as a reasonable volume was reached. The breakthrough came when Les Paul, a jazz guitarist...

An uneventful or even a disastrous day is filled with valued gifts when we take a moment to reflect upon them. A long line of people stood in the checkout line of the new department store in town. A lady with her arms full of items, while holding a toddler on her hip, waited patiently for her turn to check out. A total stranger, who was next in line to check out, motioned to her to step in front of him. Her face beamed with gratitude as she passed the five people in front of her and took his place in line. It was such a small act of kindness; yet, her heart was overwhelmed with happiness. She experienced a brief, but genuine moment of sincere gratitude, with such joy, that it altered the course of...

Forces of good and evil have existed since the beginning of the Universe. These forces exist mainly in the subtle regions of the Universe and influence the positive and negative forces on Earth almost completely. From time to time the subtle forces of evil gain enough spiritual energy to attempt to establish a demonic rule in the Universe. In current times, the balance of power between the forces of good and evil is 70% and 30% respectively. However the forces of evil in the Universe have once again derived enough spiritual energy to attempt to establish a demonic rule. The fight that ensues is known as a subtle battle or an Armageddon. Armageddon's effects are being felt through all the regions of...

Orville Gibson, the founder of the Gibson Guitar Corporation, started making mandolins in 1894. From the beginning, Gibson established himself as a quality instrument builder who added his own innovations. His mandolins were modified in such a way that they had a richer sound.

First produced by Jackson Guitars in 1984, the Jackson Soloist was a radical model at the time that changed the nature of electric guitars. It was a bridge between the old and new guitar designs. The Jackson Soloist started as a small project while Jackson's founder (Grover Jackson) was working at the Charvel Guitar Company. During this time, prototypes were available to select customers and were simply custom guitars with no specific design which shared similarities to each other. The original Soloist was made in 1984 and had the serial number J0158. While the prototypes were purely custom made, these new Soloists had a core design and customers could ask for enhancements or changes as they saw fit...

It seems in recent years that the electric organ has become very uncool in favour of smaller more modern looking keyboards such as the Yamaha Tyros. It's a shame because the organ can do everything a keyboard can do and more. In my opinion, the organ is also more playable as a live instrument. Because of the bass pedals, you can play the organ without any auto chord or drum machine and get a very respectable sound. The keyboard on the other hand would sound thin, definitely lacking without auto chord/bass. Of course keyboards are considerably cheaper than organs and take up less room and so has created a new generation of keyboard players, some of which could never afford the hefty cost of an organ...

When thinking about the history of Epiphone, one must start in Greece where Anastasios Stathopoulos made lioutos (a Greek stringed instrument), mandolins, fiddles, and lutes. The family moved to New York, and his son, Epi Stathopoulos inherited the company in 1915. The company name changed from the House of Stathopoulos to Epiphone, a combination of his name and the Greek word for sound. The change was made official in 1928. It was during this time that the company was active in making banjos, and they even bought out a banjo company in Long Island. After the change was approved, the company became the Epiphone Banjo Co. Epiphones guitars were launched in 1931. This was a full line of what are known...

It's possible to hear with our whole body and not just our ears. Modern medicine has come to support this notion that sound can heal us. Harp music is often recommended to those in need. Sound expands us and allows us to extend our perceptions in such a way that we enter the territory of extra-sensory perception. Or, one could also say, extended-sensory perception. Let's test the idea with a simple exercise: Choose a beautiful piece of music. (You may want to try something with layered sounds, something rich and classical.) Close your eyes and let the sounds fill your senses. If it's a piece of music you know, listen for something you've never heard before. Listen with your whole body...

Best beginner electric guitar Is there really a "best beginner electric guitar"?. There are a lot of guitars on the market being promoted as beginner guitars, many of which are just an excuse for poor quality. Seeing as I like to focus on the positive, I'm not going to start giving names of bad guitars, but rather, let's look at some well known makes with a good reputation. For starters, how about some of the guitars I currently own, and am very fond of. I have an Ibanez SA series guitar that sounds great and plays very well, a Phil guitar (a less known brand name), a Fender Stratocaster, and a Marathone copy of a Paul Reed Smith. Previous electric guitars I have owned that were also decent quality...
