Use these tips to get you started on your way to some cool hip hop beats.

If you don't know what samples are its time you learn. Samples are short recordings of music that you use to create your hip hop beats. To make them your own, play an instrument. You don't have to know how to play it. Be creative and experiment with different combinations of notes. Use different instruments to record a variety of samples.

You may run into trouble creating samples and need inspiration. The best way to become inspired is to listen to music. Do not limit yourself to your favorite brand of music. Expand into other genres. Listen to the different instruments, the different rhythms, the various beats. This not only will give you ideas, but expand your knowledge of different instruments you can use to make your sample beats.

Now you should have a few samples to work with. It's time to create your hip hop beats. Let your samples guide you in the process. By now you should have some idea on how this puzzle fits together. Usually in the sample creation process ideas will come to you and you will envision the big picture. To help keep things on tempo, use a simple drum beat track to hold everything together.

To finish off your beat, you need to put yourself into the mix. Add how you feel, your joy, your sorrow, your pain, your misery. Don't be a robot. It will show in your beats. This is the hardest part of beat making. It's a lesson that is learned through practice, through persistence. Most important is to have fun with it. See were it takes you. Stick to it and go with it.

Helping The World, Lining Your Closet: The Benefits Of Shopping At Toms- Shoes

By Janine Rose Morley

It's easy to focus on the negatives that are all around in the world today. More often people are only looking out for number one, and their fellow man just sort of gets left to fend for themselves, whether they have the capacity or not. There are a few people, companies, organizations, and groups that are devoting their life's work to helping those who cannot help themselves. Companies like Toms- Shoes, whose commitment for those in need is refreshing.

The person behind Toms Shoes is Blake Mycoskie who took an eye opening trip to Argentina and befriended several local people that he noticed were unable to clothe their feet. He began being troubled by this truth as a normal for billions across the world. Blake decided when he came home that he would start some sort of organization to help those around the world who could not help themselves with one of their simplest needs: shoes.

Ever since day one at Toms Shoes, for every pair of shoes that was purchased, one was given away to someone who could not acquire some on their own. Paying it forward, in essence.

There is something for the whole family with Toms Shoes. You can browse through their web-based catalogue online at: www.tomsshoes.com. There are plenty of selections for young children, women and men. They are also adding towards an extensive line of "Tiny Toms" for your little, little ones.

One of the best things about Toms Shoes is that they aren't trying to get you to spend a fortune to fund their wild plan. In fact, these shoes cost as much (and often less) than other shoe companies in competition. So not only will you be spending about the same, you can feel good about how you look on the outside, and who you are on the inside.

You can go out of your way for your global neighbor, by simply doing what you were probably going to anyway: buying shoes. This can be for yourself, someone else in your family, and Toms also offers gift cards so that your gift recipient can find their perfect pair. Remember, this is a pair of shoes for you, which works out to be a pair of shoes for someone else.

The Agronomist: A commanding, abrasive documentary picture of an intriguing individual, Jean Dominique, a leading Haitian figure and significant player in the nation's battle for human being rights.
