Every piece of music is written in one key or another, such as the key of Bb or the key of E or whatever. The key signature at the beginning of a score tells what sharps or flats are being used in the song, and therefore what scale the song is based on.

There is a key signature in all pieces of music.  It is signified just after the clef (the staff) and includes symbols for flats (b) and sharps (#).  When you take a careful look at the start of each of the lines in the music you will surely recognize a grouping of flats or sharps (never both at once).  They appear either on a space or on a line of the music staff and are put there to signify the notes that will be affected by them.  To say it a different way, if the #, or sharp, is placed on the top of a music staff, the F note will be played as F#.  This means that anytime the note F is played, no matter if it is in the staff’s first space, on top of the staff, or below or above the staff (this will be signified by the ledger lines) it will be played as F#.

If the music requires that the note be played in a different way, not as a flat or sharp as indicated in the key signature, there will be an accidental just in front of the note to indicate it being played as a natural note.  An example of this would be if the piece has been indicated to play all F notes as sharp but in one section it is needed played as a natural, the accidental will be placed just before the note that is different.

The key signature is put in place so that the sharps and flats will be limited on the actual notes in the piece of music.  Basically, by putting the # in the signature key it avoids the writer from having to put a sharp or flat by each note when the F is in the music.  It lets the musician know that each and every time the F note is required that it should be played as F#.  The lines of music will not be as cluttered this way and it will be much easier to be read.

Here are some common key signatures and the notes they affect:

Key of C: No sharps or flats
Key of G: One sharp (F#)
Key of D: Two sharps (F# and C#)
Key of A: Three sharps (F#, C# and G#)
Key of E: Four sharps (F#, C#, G# and D#)
Key of F: One flat (Bb)
Key of Bb: Two flats (Bb and Eb)
Key of Eb: Three flats (Bb, Eb, and Ab)

There is also a relative minor assigned to each key.  While it is true that in nearly all ways the major and the relative minor that coincides with it are similar (they use the same scale even though they begin in different places), they are not considered the same.  The note that can be found a minor third down from the major (key) is called the relative minor.  You can think of it in another way by remembering the sixth note in the major scale is the relative minor.  As an example, The C major scale has a sixth note of A so an A minor is the relative minor to C.  It is very common to use the relative minor of the key and if you gain a good understanding of them you will find that you have a better understanding of the chord progressions in the song.

Below are some of the keys and their relative minors (keys):

A minor is the relative minor for C.
B minor is the relative minor for D.
F# minor is the relative monitor for A.
G minor is the relative minor for Bb.

When a musician that is experienced plays in a setting that is not formal (without written music) all they need to know is what the key is to the song that they will be playing and they will immediately know the sales, or melodies, as well as the chords that are necessary to play it well.

Lastly, a song being written in more keys than one is fairly common and the key changes in the middle somewhere.  The newer musicians may have difficulties when the keys change like this.

The often maligned Indianapolis Colts defense matched the ferocity of their Jacksonville Jaguars counterparts play for play, and one touchdown pass from Peyton Manning proved to be enough to earn victory by a 14-12 margin in the NFL season opener for both teams. The victory was Manning’s 118th in a Colts uniform, tying the legendary Johnny Unitas for the franchise lead. Unitas, of course, was the personification of the franchise during their years in Baltimore.

NFL sports betting enthusiasts who took the Jaguars as +6 road underdogs were rewarded with the pointspread cover. Indianapolis dropped to 11-16 ATS over the past three years when favored. The 26 combined points went well UNDER the posted total of 45. Despite their reputation as an offensive juggernaut, the Colts have actually trended to the UNDER over the past three seasons, with 19 UNDERs in their past 35 lined games. The Jaguars, conversely, have a slight edge to the OVER in that span with a 19-14 mark over the past three years.

After the contest, Manning displayed his characteristic humility when asked about tying the mark held by the Colts’ hall of famer Unitas:

“I’ve never felt comfortable with comparisons with him. I think he’s kind of in his own category. But I am proud of those wins.”

Manning was more concerned about the welfare of receiver Anthony Gonzalez who lefthe game with an injury:

“I asked Rashean Matthis what happened and he said, ‘I didn’t even touch him . He has worked so hard in the offseason, I just hope it’s not a season-ending injury.”

Colts coach Jim Caldwell was pleased with the effort of the defense:

“Obviously, the defense played well and came up big at the end. We thought it would be a grind, and it was. I think our team certainly played tough, played hard, played with a lot of energy.”

Jacksonville wasnt overly discouraged after the contest either, pleased with the intensity and their effectiveness in shutting down one of the NFLs best offenses. Maurice Jones-Drew praised the tenacious Indy defense after the game:

“They just did a great job in the red zone stifling our offense. My hat’s off to them. But we have to learn how to finish.”

Quarterback David Garrard also paid respect to the tenacity of the Indy pass rush:

“I thought, ‘Here we go again, we have a great chance. You love to be in that situation. We were trying to get the ball to Maurice, but you’ve got to slow those pass rushers down. We did what we could do.”

The Jaguars will open their 2009 NFL home slate on Sunday as they host the Arizona Cardinals. Theyll travel to Houston for a game against the Texans the following week. The Colts will head to south Florida for a game against the Miami Dolphins on Monday night.

Kelly Pavlik will defend his unified middleweight championship against Paul Williams on October 3rd in Atlantic City, New Jersey. The fight will be held at a familiar venue for boxing fans, Boardwalk Hall and will be broadcast live on HBO. Despite some fits and starts in the negotiations between the two sides, they finally came to terms on Tuesday night.

Talks had gone back and forth between Top Rank president Todd DuBoef, who promotes Pavlik, and Williams promoter Dan Goossen with the primary bone of contention being the split of the $3.75 million rights fee from HBO and the live gate at Boardwalk Hall which could approach $2 million.

DuBoef confirmed that a deal had been reached:

“Goossen and I have agreed to all terms and we are going to contract for the fight. We look forward to a formal announcement.”

Goossen also said the fight was a done deal:

“I’m just happy that we’ve finally come to terms and gotten this resolved. Now we can move forward.”

Pavlik will be defending the middleweight title for the third time. Williams, a rangy southpaw, could be his most dangerous challenge to date. A difficult matchup for any fighter, Williams has fought at three different weight classes in an effort to advance his career and Goossen talked about the stern challenge his fighter will present Pavlik:

“Paul Williams, as we have said over and over, will fight anyone at virtually any weight. This is another example of him willing to take on the best. He wants to take over the 160-pound division.”

Pavlik promoter DuBoef shared his thoughts on the matchup:

“I think it’s an interesting matchup. It’s a fight that Kelly wants and he’s highly motivated for this fight. People have said there is no real opposition in the 160-pound division, but this fight can bring a lot of interest to a division with a rich history.”

Pavliks co-manager Cameron Duncan commented:

“Paul Williams is a terrific fighter and so is my guy. It’s a terrific match and it’s good for boxing. It’s a fight people are going to want to watch. Williams comes to fight and Kelly definitely comes to fight. It’s going to be a really fun fight to watch with lots of lots of punches and lots of action.”

The fight got made despite almost no hands on input from Top Rank chairman Bob Arum. Arum didnt want to deal with Williams manager Al Haymon, due to a hostile relationship between the two men. Early negotiations for the fight broke down on several occasions due to the strained relationship between Arum and Haymon.

Ever since he burst onto the MMA scene with a shocking first round KO upset of Jens Pulver at UFC 63, Joe Lauzon has been working to earn respect. For some reason hes had trouble being taken seriously as a top contender in the UFCs lightweight division. He may not fit the classical profile of a fighter, looking more like a fresh faced kid and is often referred to as a geek due to his educational background in computer science. In the main event at the UFC Ultimate Fight Night in Tampa, Lauzon withstood a game challenge from late replacement Jeremy Stephens to earn a 2nd round submission victory.

Lauzon was in control of the fight throughout, but Stephens gave a good account of himself despite his opponents obvious technical superiority on the ground. Lauzon appeared to be on the verge of ending the fight midway through the second with a ground and pound assault that he attempted to transition into a rear naked choke. Stephens fought back with a vengeance despite his disadvantageous position and opened a nasty cut on Lauzon’s forehead with an elbow strike.

As puddles of crimson gathered anytime Lauzon’s head neared the mat, he gained a new sense of urgency not wanting to lose on a stoppage due to the cut. He regained control on the ground and from full mount twisted into a nasty arm bar. Stephens tried to extricate himself, but was eventually forced to tap giving the bloody Lauzon a hard fought triumph.

The semifinal matchup featured another impressive effort from Cain Velasquez, who many have pegged as the heavyweight superstar of the future. Velasquez is a formidable physical presence at 6′2″ 241 pounds, and has very well developed technical skills for a fighter with only five bouts under his belt.

Velasquez was never really threatened in the fight, but he did have difficulty finishing off tough UFC newcomer Dennis Stojnic. Stojnic displayed impressive toughness and a chin of granite, which is less surprising given his training home at Amsterdam’s Golden Glory gym where he works alongside such fighters as K-1s Semmy Schilt and DREAMs Alistair Overeem. Stojnic did become the first of Velasquez’s opponents to make it into the second round as he withstood a brutal beating near the end of the first to make it to the bell.

In the second round, Velasquez quickly caught his opponent and sent him to the canvas with a nice combination which he followed up with another ground and pound attack. Stojnic again kept trying to defend himself despite a hellacious beating, though the referee finally jumped in and stopped the contest awarding Velasquez the TKO verdict.

On the undercard, Josh The Dentist Neer earned a tapout victory over the sports best known (and perhaps only) vegan, Mac Danzig.

In the opening bout of the evening, up-and-coming welterweight Anthony Rumble Johnson used his significant height and reach advantage to dispatch tough Luigi Fioravanti.

The live crowd in Tampa gave a very poor account of themselves, at times booing fighters mercilessly for no apparent reason whatsoever. This was in addition to the usual booing when the fight goes to the ground typical of uneducated MMA fans–they often turned on fighters midbout for no discernible reason. Their behavior reached a nadir in Cain Velasquez’s post fight interview, where he was booed mercilessly despite an impressive victory and informing Joe Rogan that he was about to become a father for the first time. It was somewhat surprising, since the Tampa/St. Pete area is home to a flourishing MMA scene.

If you are looking for work or simply looking for a career that will allow you to be home more, you are in a growing crowd. People everywhere are finding that a work from home business is often more rewarding for them and offers them a lot of great benefits. One choice for those who desire to support their family working from home is to start a small answering service out of the home.

Thousands of people make money working from home with their own answering service and many of the more lucrative ones can make well over $100,000 a year. It is all about how many companies you take on and what services you offer. As a small answering service just starting out, you may want to limit the options you provide to a more select amount of customers to make certain you can provide them with great service.

Some of the most important options you will want to provide to your clients is answering phone calls when their office is closed and communicating those messages to them by phone call, fax, email, or even sending them by text on their cell phone. Other alternatives that may be considered are paging services, appointment setting, and confirmation calls. You will find each client will have specified wants that must be met.

The hard part in dealing with this kind of service is the hours involved. As the boss, you will need to select what type of clients and options you wish to provide. Many find that by simply offering their services from 5pm until 8am the following day, they are able to provide for enough clients to earn their living. The owner would then have a full day to carry out other tasks and even sleep.

The the negative to this sort of company is that it doesn’t allow for much free time or should you wish to take a vacation, you must rely on someone else to come in and answer the calls in your home office for you. While many people make money working from home with this business, it is only for those individuals who do not mind working hard and working a lot of hours to meet the needs of their clients.

In what has to be one of the least difficult front office personnel decisions in sports history, Indianapolis Colts’ owner Jim Irsay has confirmed that the team will sign quarterback Peyton Manning to a contract extension that could make him the highest paid player in NFL history. Manning’s current deal will expire after the end of the 2010 season, with the final two years having been voided due to his meeting a number of performance based criteria. Despite losing the Superbowl this year, the Colts have not wavered on their commitment to Manning as the longterm QB for the team.

You can tell that an owner is adamant about resigning a player when he tells the media that he wants to make him the highest paid player in league history, and Irsay did just that:

“You know it’s going to get done. I think it’s clear, and we’ll start on it this summer. That’s been the way we do things [to hammer out an extension when a player is entering the final year of his contract]. And it’ll be the biggest [contract] in history; there’s not much doubt about that.”

Not exactly the most advantageous negotiating position to make public that you’re committed to breaking the bank to resign a player. Then again, it’s not like Manning is a quarterback that can easily be replaced as Irsay emphasized:

“It simply comes to one question, and that’s replaceability. Everything is based on the replaceability factor. You make decisions based on who you can afford to target and keep. … Other guys you really want to [re-sign] you might have trouble doing it, because of what it costs you, and how much attention they’re getting [from other teams in free agency]. We don’t have that luxury and we’ve had to work hard.”

Manning’s agent, Tom Condon, has already had preliminary discussions with the Colts’ management about a new deal. Condon also represent’s Peyton’s brother Eli Manning, and negotiated a $97.5 million contract extension from the New York Giants for him last year. Peyton’s contract will almost certainly exceed those figures, with some speculating that he could receive $20 million per year with a $50 million signing bonus up front.
