What is the dot next to a note on the cello?

How much does a degree usually cost?
The cost of an education today is a major concern to students and their families. The cost of the education is particular to the school you plan to attend. Personally, I see little value in attending a private or Ivy League school where the cost will put many individuals in high debt before they even get started in life. State schools are fine for undergraduate work, as long as the institution has a regional accreditation. It will be a lot less expensive this way.

How is an electric cello different to an acoustic cello?
Well, it's a bit like asking how an acoustic guitar is different to an electric one.
An electric cello is shaped very differently to an acoustic one; it looks kind of a stick with strings and knee rests, if you can picture that. And, of course, it plugs into an amplifier, so the sound is a lot louder. This makes it good for bands and large music groups, because in situations like thee acoustic cellos tend to get drowned out. I'm told an electric cello is more difficult to play than an acoustic one.
Oh, and electric cellos only come in full size.

I've had many friends that waited until 8 / 10 weeks for their first sonogram. During my first pregnancy my OB monitored my HCG levels until they reached 1,000-1,500 at about six weeks. I was then scheduled for a sonogram within a couple of days. I have unfortunately had 3 unsuccesful pregnancies and if I didn't have the peace of mind from consistent monitoring and early sonograms, (typical care from my OB,) I would have gone crazy.
