When complete, this index will provide records (without images) for the approximately 20,000 uncataloged sheet music items in the Rare Book, Manuscript, and Special Collections Library of Duke University. These are primarily "classical music" and Austrian sheet music from the Alexander Weinmann collection. There are currently no plans to add images to these records.

Instead of dragging your tower & monitor to a LAN party, you could just bring along the compact Xbox console, hook it up to one of the numerous hubs in the house, set up the network, & you're ready for an intense fragging session. This will be entirely possible with the Xbox. J. Allard has also commented about how Xbox owners will be able to have "LAN parties" with their Xbox's. No.

In order to avoid Sony's product stocking problem, launch dates for Xbox were staggered for North America, Asia, Europe, & Oceania.

For audio/music CDs, you'll want to work with CD-R rather than CD-RW because you can't play CD-RW discs in normal audio/music CD players.

The objective of a game of backgammon is to maneuver each of his 15 checkers across the board towards his own inner board. The objective seems simple and feeble to the uninitiated but this is not an easy job to do. Skill and cunning are necessary to succeed in this venture. To win, a player needs to move his checkers to his inner board without being obstructed by his opponent. Unless a player is playing against someone with a short attention span, he'll have a hard time winning.

You would be breaking the law unless you acquire a license to rebroadcast the music. The law does not allow any unauthorized rebroadcast of radio music for the benefit of your business. You can find more information on this from the major licensing organizations such as ASCAP, SESAC and BMI. Also, your callers may not like your choice of radio stations. They might also be hearing your competitor’s ads, receive poor reception (static), and be subjected to annoying DJ's.

Only a few of our classrooms are equipped with stand-alone CD players. However, all of the PCs have CD drives and the software necessary to play music CDs. Data CDs created with CD-R and CD-RW drives can occasionally present problems, so it is always best to test your CD on the classroom computer before you need to use it. This is also true for DVDs.

You can play the disc on a conventional CD player (if supported). You will also need to record the music as a Wave file in order to use it in your car.

Most of our boxes wind up from the bottom or top by a key. The music plays when you open the box lid.

Most tunes play about 14 bars of music in 4/4 time. It usually lasts three minutes or so when fully wound. All tunes repeat after the cylinder has made one full revolution.

I’ve never understood why anyone would want to know, but an astonishing number of people do. I listen to movie soundtracks, mostly historical epics like “Last of the Mohicans,” “Troy,” “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.” I also listen to bagpipe music. And Yo-Yo Ma. Make of this what you will.

The Xbox's DVD-ROM laser doesn't read all types of media. Most CD-Rs & many CR-RWs can't be read by the Xbox because of simple hardware limitations. This is not a conspiracy.

Yup. Do it all the time. Please know that YOU are responsible for any sample clearances/ copyright issues that might be involved should you hit "the Big Time" with the tracks you record here.

We can't give any permission for using Enya's music and/or lyrics. Please contact Warner Music UK. There are some songs avalaible on the Internet mistakenly attributed to Enya.

There's also a bootleg from Eastern Europe called "Solas".

Feel free to mail us your music video (see Submissions page for instructions) and we promise that we will watch it. If we think it's worthy, we'll let you know from there.

Once it gets enough points, we'll request a physical copy from you and put it up there.

Answer: If the harassment is based on your race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, marital status, pregnancy, or status with regard to public assistance, it may be a violation of anti-discrimination laws. Answer: Possibly. An employer has the right to review medical documentation related to your request for an accommodation to determine if it is reasonable.

If it's a professionally pressed cd, unwrap it, there is nothing more annoying than a band who pressed their own cd, has a top spine with barcode and shrink wrap. As a matter of fact, it's a turn off and your cd may end up at the bottom of the pile. If it's a cd-r, that's cool, but please make sure that it is properly labeled with the band's name and the song titles. We do not really care who you played with in the past, so spare the "we played with all these bands" page.
