My friends and I have formed a small jazz ensemble and we are wondering what music to play. We have a bass, piano, drums, alto sax, trumpet and maybe a trombone if the music calls for one. Also how and where can a couple of high school students get music without spending too much? Thanks.Where can we get jazz sheet music that will fit our group?
OMG! COOL! I will try to help as much as I can, cause I'm a pianist and alto saxophonist!

SHEET MUSIC=
Thousands of sheet music for free (and printable!) got to this site and make an account:
http://sheetmusicpublicdomain.com/?place鈥?/a>
-When you made your account, search for jazz music! (don't forget the ones I listed!)
ADVICE=
Go to a local family music store, talk to an older sales person (in their 50's or 60's), ask them about their favorite jazz bands, and research those band names!
ALSO, if you have an older grandparent, relative, or friend of your parents who listened to that kind
of music - ask them!
My grandpa just died in January...he loved music...My mom said that was all she listened to when she was a little girl...most of this advice CAME from my mom actually, lol.
....that's all the best advice you could possibly get from one musician to another! (...and from my mom! lol)
Good luck! :DWhere can we get jazz sheet music that will fit our group?
Here's What My Jazz Quintet Does:
1. Get a ';RealBook'; They are essentially the bible of Jazz Musicians. It has hundreds of Jazz, Latin, Ballads, and Funk tunes in it. For each song. there is the ';Head'; (or the melody), and chord symbols. Learn the melody and add harmony based on the chord symbols. Then, usually, the musicians solo over the chord changes, and then play the ';Head'; again and end the tune. They are available at virtually any music store. (Honestly your best bet)
2. Write Your Own Songs: (Think of something simple, like a waterfall, and go to the piano and play a few simple chords that remind you of a waterfall. Then add instrument and instrument and create a simplistic melody and add harmony's (3rd, 4th, 5th of the root note, sound nice) You will be surprised at how easy music and ideas will come to you.
3. YouTube: Believe it or not, if you guys are good at hearing notes and being able to play them on your instruments without music, you can learn a lot of cool tunes and use them as ideas for your own songs.
4. Google Search: There are some really cool free charts on the web. Search for ';Free Sheet Music Jazz'; or something along those lines.

Where to get toddler bed sheet sets (fitted bottom, top flat)?
I have searched for bottom and top sheets for a toddler bed and cannot find any without having to buy a whole bedding set that also includes the comforter. These sets are not that cheap ($35 and up) and we already have quite a few comforters that were hand made and given to us before my grandson was born.
So, I do have a sewing machine, but finding the time is another question and cost wise...would it be cheaper to make? Fitted bottom sheets run $6.89 to $10 at walmart.
What is your opinion or have you found sheet sets (without the comforters) for decent prices and where?
Thank you to all who answer.Where to get toddler bed sheet sets (fitted bottom, top flat)?
I too asked this question before, I know you can use regular crib sheets but wanted the top sheet as well. I haven't looked into getting any, but just found these for you -

I have not seen any stores with just the sheet set (outside of just a fitted crib sheet), although I haven't looked in earnest yet.... I was about to go searching for this myself. I did briefly look at eBay a few months ago, and there seemed to be a lot of options without the comforter. Good luck!
you can find them at walmart and target for sure... just look in the baby department for the crib sheets because you use a crib mattress on a toddler bed.
I use a standard twin set, it works really well and the ones that seem big just tuck really tight under neath or even get a pin and pin the loose ends on the mattress
I found fitted sheets with a blanket at target.
baby crib sheets fit a toddler bed and are sold separately just about anywhere!
I'd check Baby's R US?!

I have fitted sheets with valances?
These sheets always wrinkle and pull away from the corners every day. How can I get them to stay neat and unwrinkled?I have fitted sheets with valances?
Is it one of the fitted sheets that come with the valance attached. I had one of those and had the same problem.
You can buy a separate valance and sheet but its a flipping nuisance so I just did away with the valance and bought a throw which comes down to floor level.
That means you cant see the base of the bed which I think is ugly because it has drawers in it.I have fitted sheets with valances?
You can buy straps. They clip onto the sheet, across the corners, you then slip the elastic underneath the corner of the mattress with the sheet %26amp; these hold the sheets on properly. I think they might be called gripper straps for sheets, check on ebay. They really work.
Don't pay too much, I think mine cost about 拢2 for a set of 4.
valance sheets are to go under the mattress not on top of the matress.
buy ordinary fitted sheets and you will be ok!

Can I buy ';fitted'; sheets and not a set?
I have 4 or 5 regular sheets (single bed) but I need fitted sheets. I'm a bachelor, they don't have to match. Where can I purchase just bottom sheets?Can I buy ';fitted'; sheets and not a set?
Hi, yes you can buy just the fitted sheets at just about any department store. Wal-Mart usually has the best price for those but you can find them any Penney鈥檚, Wards, K-Mart etc and twins are usually fairly cheap compared to the larger sizes.Can I buy ';fitted'; sheets and not a set?
Macys is a good place because they have sales on decent sheets. I find they are just as inexpensive as say Kmart (and better quality) if you get em on sale, and macys is always having a sale it seems like.
Edit: Posted a link for macys I dont oreder online but just so you get an idea. These Ralph Lauren are decent
Hi there,
If you are in the UK try morrison's, asda or tesco's. I often get the morrison fitted sheets in both single and double. Usually the colours are blue, white or cream.
Hope this helps, have a great weekend :-)

Ho do you fold fitted sheets and mke them look neat? Seriously !?
Both of these sites show how it is done. I've been folding those darn fitted sheets for years and the two sites below easily demonstrate this hair pulling ordeal of laundry day. But I promise you it really isn't all that difficult. It just takes a little practice.
A little trick I've learned....When folding sheet sets save one pillow case to put the fitted sheet and flat sheet with one pillow case inside the unfolded pillow case. This way the entire set is always together and will not get mixed up with other items in the laundry closet.Ho do you fold fitted sheets and mke them look neat? Seriously !?
Lay the sheet flat, with the corners in, then fold the sides to the middle and then the ends, you end up with a sheet that you can fold over to the center, and then fold again, now that you have done that fold in half and again. Should be a nice little package. Good luck.Ho do you fold fitted sheets and mke them look neat? Seriously !?
According to Martha Stewart, you lay them on bed, fold the long way, take fitted part and place one into other, then fold the end up even where fitted is inside the end of rectangle, do both ends, then fold in half, fold in half again %26amp; one fold across. The perfect fitted sheet folded flat. Hey, she was on Oprah.
Haven't figured that one out yet...sorry

Does a resume have to fit on one sheet of paper?
Are resumes always on one sheet or can they be a little bit longer?Does a resume have to fit on one sheet of paper?
I wouldn't go over a page. When handling so many pages of so many resumes, a second page makes a difference.
What size is your format? Can you make it smaller, leave out a word or two, space it differently???
Here is a spectacular website:
http://jobsearch.about.com/od/resumes/Re鈥?/a>Does a resume have to fit on one sheet of paper?
This depends on the resume. In my experience, most employers will prefer one sheet, but if you have more applicable experience or skills than will fit on one sheet, then you should certainly include them. For example, my husband has experience in multiple science careers as well as expert knowledge of many scientific computer programs and techniques. When using a chronological resume, it is about a page and a half. When using a functional resume, which focuses more on his skills, it still fits on one page.
One sheet is bollocks. It all depends on how much experience you have. A resume should always be kept as concise as possible, but at the same time you need to reflect what you did at your positions and your technical skills. Don't force the HR people to become mind readers because they wont even bother calling you for an interview if they have to be guessing what you can offer their company. A lot of resumes are also electronically stored, meaning they use keywords to pull relevant resumes up. Hence, if your resume is vague it will NEVER trigger a pull.
It is often preferable to keep a resume to only one page; however, ensure that the font is not shrunk to the point that it is illegible (10 pt. should be considered a minimum). If you feel that in order to maintain a decent font size an extra page is needed, this second page will likely not make a negative impact.
it depends on what the resume is being used for, and it doesn't HAVE to fit on one sheet, but it is common for an employer to prefer to look at one sheet with the candidate's major accomplishments as opposed to multiple with everything.
Yeah keep it to one page but fill that thing up as much as you can while trying to keep it organized looking. Try to have your best features stand out and make them remember yours!
usually one, especially in the business arena.
Older employees may have more.eye shadow

I am looking for a fitted King size sheet with measurement of 72'; x 75.2';. Where ?
Hi, Here are the size of king mattresses and the fitted sheets are the same size.
Standard King 76”x80”
California King 72”x84”
(aka Western King)
Eastern King 78”x80”
Your measurements will be closest to a california king. You could just tuck in the extra or get them altered. Hope this helps.
http://www.bestratedmattresses.com/king-…I am looking for a fitted King size sheet with measurement of 72'; x 75.2';. Where ?
DM, if that's the size of the top of the mattress, it appears to be something non-standard. King mattresses are 76'; (wide) by 80'; and a California King is 72'; by 84';.
Your size is shorter than any mattress (Queens are 80'; long, too) except Twin Extra Long, and those are nowhere near the width you need, of course.
Best bet is to buy a standard King and tuck the excess near the foot (or modify it yourself).

Can a 4 x 8 sheet of plywood fit in a station wagon?

the only ones I can think of offhand are the old school Chevy wagons... I had a '79 caprice that could hold just about anything!
Only one I can think of would be an old Buick Roadmaster. At that, I'm not sure it'd take a full 4x8 sheet of plywood.

Fitting sheet music on a stand?
to all musicians out there: how can i fit 5 pages of music on a standard sized stand without having to flip anything??? this is for a 3-5 minute youth orchestra audition, and stopping half way through the piece to flip the 3 pages i have taped together doesn't seem appropriate, even though there is a huge 17 bar rest in the piece. i just don't think it's right to stop, the guy might think I'm finished!
please, any tips? thank you everyone!Fitting sheet music on a stand?
If it's in book form, you or someone else gets the honor of flipping pages. That's just the way it is.Fitting sheet music on a stand?
This is what page turners are for - live people, not some mechanical device! Especially if you have too many pages to stretch out across the stand on card, rope in a friend to help. Besides, that way you will have the bit you are concentrating on at that moment in front of you where it belongs, not a yard away so you have to turn or lean over to see it, and that can be really disrupting to the flow of your playing.
Good luck with the audition.
Get a bigger stand.
Tape the pages to one big sheet of cardboard so you can just place that on the stand. (it wont bend or anything!)
Use two stands.
There are digital music stands available. eStand is an example.
Harry Connick Jr. and others have used LCD music stands for big bands and orchestras.
Use a Manhasset stand, and get StandOuts - those plastic things that slide on. They increase the width significantly - I use them all the time.
Have someone turn pages for you?
Thats what I would do :)

Do I still need to buy EXTRA fitted crib sheets on top of what I get with crib bedding package?
i definatley suggest it. i have 3 sheets in total and sometimes only do laundry once a week. sometimes i am forced to do a load earlier because i have no shets for his crib.Do I still need to buy EXTRA fitted crib sheets on top of what I get with crib bedding package?
I bought three extra ones so I can always have a spare on his bed while the other is being washed. You never know when he/she will be sick and throw up in the middle of the night or have diarreha. I also used to fitted mattress covers under the sheets to help protect the mattress and make it warmer.Do I still need to buy EXTRA fitted crib sheets on top of what I get with crib bedding package?
I found I never needed more than two fitted sheets. I had one flannel sheet for the cool winter nights and a light cotton sheet for the summer.
There may be times when the baby has a very messy diaper and it leaks out onto the bed. This usually happens in the middle of the night when you don't want to deal with changing a crib. It's good to have a back-up fitted sheet for emergencies!!
Yes. You are going to need extra sheets. My son sleeps through the night and for some reason..every night..he pees on himself and it gets all over his sheets and clothes. So I have to change it every morning. Plus they slobber and spit up so yeah..unless you want to do laundry more then once a day...buy lots of crib sheets!
oh yeah. I change my daughter about every three days. And I wash her clothes about once a week. She has quite a bit of clothing so I find no need to wash them all the time, but she does have the nasty drool and spit up, so I change the sheet frequently. It helps to have a clean spare sheet for changes and then another one for emergencies.
I have three total and it's perfect.
Oh yeah. Kids are gross. Have atleast a back up, more like 2 or 3. They ralph and all other nasty things in the middle of the night.
Side note- be ready for when they learn to take their diaper off in the night. My 13 month old did this everyday until we started to use duct tape. We needed back up sheets for that.
Hi congrats on your baby %26gt;Yes i suggest you buy maybe 2 more .However good tip is to use a muslin on the top of the matteress for any pukes .It can be easily changed %26gt;also put one where the nappy lies/ Good luck with your new baby.
You'll want at least two more for when you do laundry or the baby spits up on them.
yes. just for those poop,pee,puke accidents. and for while your washing the other. they come in handy.

Side note- be ready for when they learn to take their diaper off in the night. My 13 month old did this everyday until we started to use duct tape. We needed back up sheets for that.
Hi congrats on your baby %26gt;Yes i suggest you buy maybe 2 more .However good tip is to use a muslin on the top of the matteress for any pukes .It can be easily changed %26gt;also put one where the nappy lies/ Good luck with your new baby.
You'll want at least two more for when you do laundry or the baby spits up on them.
yes. just for those poop,pee,puke accidents. and for while your washing the other. they come in handy.

Invite any currently active military man to make your bed. Take pictures.
You don't need pictures. You take the flat sheet, fold in half and half again. Take the fitted sheet and wad it up in the neatest ball you can. You can't fold a fitted sheet. I think there might even be a housekeeping law pertaining to folding fitted sheets.
That's the reason that hospitals don't want you to watch them make a bed, their fitted sheets don't look any better than ours do.
Sign me up for the class I hate fitted sheets.
Technique
Folding a Fitted Sheet
1. Start with your sheet inside out. While standing, hold the sheet in front of you, and place one hand in each of two adjacent corners.
2. Bring your right hand to your left, and fold the corner in your right hand over the one in your left hand, so that the corner on top is right-side out.
3. Keeping your left hand in place, reach down to the remaining two corners with your free hand, and tuck these corners into each other. Fold these corners over the first two. Your sheet should now be folded in quarters, with all four corners tucked inside one another.
4. Lay the sheet on a flat surface with the puckered end folded in over the flat part of the sheet. Touch up with an iron, if necessary, at this point. Fold two edges in, so all the elastic is hidden.
5. Fold the strip you have created into a rectangle, then continue folding until the rectangle is the size you want it to be.
They are folded in half (for length) then in half again (for length). Then they are folded in half (to shorten the length) and in half again (same way) and maybe in half again (same way)
Fitted sheets get folded by holding the seamed corners(top corners of the bed) putting them together and then fold to desired size. Practice makes it better. Or do as i use to do , wad it up best as can be and toss in closet .

Since when do fitted sheets have elastic all the way around?
How the heck do you put them on the bed? It takes me about three trys! What's the secret?Since when do fitted sheets have elastic all the way around?
Put the elasticated corners over the mattress, starting with the top of the bed first, then do the bottom of the bed. It's easier this way!

How to keep fitted sheets smooth on the bed?
You can purchase straps that attach to the corners, what works best for me is placing a non skid mat for under the rugs on the corner and sides of the mattress. I cut them into this shape. curve on top, narrowing down to the bottom of the mattress. I lay this on each corner and pull the sheet over each corner. I wish I could explain this better but the key is the under rug item in small ares on the corner of the mattress and sides.How to keep fitted sheets smooth on the bed?
what i always do b4 putting the sheets on my bed is that i iron all my bed things.. so i iron the pillow cover, bed skirt, etc...
that really helps a lot.. then i tuck it in really tightly.. if it comes out, just tuck it back in..
i know it is really annoying all the time tucking and tucking and tucking! so just tuck ur bed sheet in really tight the first time.
i hope this helps! byeHow to keep fitted sheets smooth on the bed?
They work during the day but you will have to still make the bed in the morning. Good luck!
pull it tight and put alligator clips on it

Do i need fitted crib sheets or just crib sheets?
I was going to buy a bunch of both but someone told me i could use fitted and crib sheets that i didn't need to put down a fitted then a regular sheet like you do on a regular size bed is this true.Do i need fitted crib sheets or just crib sheets?
I have only used the fitted sheets. Having less things the baby can get tangled up in on the crib is better. If you want to have a flat sheet or two to use like a light weight blanket than buy a few for that purpose, otherwise skip the flat sheet.Do i need fitted crib sheets or just crib sheets?
Hmmm... I actually thought all crib sheets were fitted?! I have only used fitted crib sheets in our son's crib. They'll recommend that you don't cover your baby with any blankets for the first year anyhow, and when they do end up after a year with a blanket...I'm pretty sure that your little one won't lay in bed under sheets! He'll end up rolling all over the place, so you'll just want to put a light blanket on top that you don't have to tuck in like regular sheets.
So I'd say just fitted crib sheets! 4 is a good number.
yes, all I have on my babies crib is a fitted sheet. No regular sheet needed. And speaking with experience, but at least 5 so you aren't having to do laundry all the time.
Just use the fitted sheet. Flat sheets are not recommended because the baby could become entangled in it. Nothing loose in the crib at all.
You'll want a fitted sheet on the crib. You don't want to put a regular sheet down because it could bunch up and get in your baby's face.
fitted is better, it fits the mattress better, making it harder it to come off and a hazard to baby
You use fitted crib sheets for an infant. The regular sheets are intended to be used for a toddler bed.
crib sheets ARE fitted.eye shadow

How to reduce data in a single excel sheet to fit into a Word page?
If i understand what you mean...you could try making the font 1 or 2 sizes smaller then select all (might have to push it twice to show EVERYTHING) and then you can just double click one of the drag lines at the boxes that say A B C...
you could also try hiding columns that you dont really need. Do this by selecting the column (at a b c...) and right click %26gt; hideHow to reduce data in a single excel sheet to fit into a Word page?
Hold down the Ctrl + Scroll themouse wheel. The sizes will change.

How to fit half sheet of paper over your head?
In one of my classes today we tried that.. we cannot cut it to wear there are open ends.. we cannot cut a strip off the edge and put it over our heads.. I don't mean like stick on top of your head like a hat, I mean put it over our heads onto our shoulders, like a necklace.
We cannot tear it or cut any parts out of it.
We did this activity today and we aren't doing it anymore and the teacher didn't really tell us the answer.How to fit half sheet of paper over your head?
I think I know what trick your teacher had in mind. You cut the paper, but you don't cut anything out of it. Fold it in half, then make cuts almost all the way across starting on alternating sides (kind of a big zig zag). Then cut across the strips on the fold (except the 1st and last) that so it opens up in a bunch of linked strips - still one piece, and if you do the cuts close enough together, you can walk through it. Here's a link with a video.
