Breaking Dawn (The Twilight Saga, Book 4) Overview
To be irrevocably in love with a vampire is both fantasy and nightmare woven into a dangerously heightened reality for Bella Swan. Pulled in one direction by her intense passion for Edward Cullen, and in another by her profound connection to werewolf Jacob Black, she has endured a tumultuous year of temptation , loss, and strife to reach the ultimate turning point. Her imminent choice to either join the dark but seductive world of immortals or pursue a fully human life has become the thread from which the date of two tribes hangs.
Now Bella has made her decision; a startling chain of unprecedented events is about to unfold with potentially devastating and unfathomable consequences. Just when the frayed strands of Bella's life--first discovered in Twilight, then scattered and torn in New Moon and Eclipse--seem ready to heal and knit together, could they be destroyed...forever?
The astonishing, breathlessly anticipated conclusion to the Twilight Saga, Breaking Dawn illuminates the secrets and mysteries of this spellbinding romantic epic.
Breaking Dawn (The Twilight Saga, Book 4) Specifications
Great love stories thrive on sacrifice. Throughout The Twilight Saga (Twilight, New Moon, and Eclipse), Stephenie Meyer has emulated great love stories--Romeo and Juliet, Wuthering Heights--with the fated, yet perpetually doomed love of Bella (the human girl) and Edward (the vampire who feeds on animals instead of humans). In Breaking Dawn, the fourth and final installment in the series, Bella’s story plays out in some unexpected ways. The ongoing conflicts that made this series so compelling--a human girl in love with a vampire, a werewolf in love with a human girl, the generations-long feud between werewolves and vampires--resolve pretty quickly, apparently so that Meyer could focus on Bella’s latest opportunity for self-sacrifice: giving her life for someone she loves even more than Edward. How close she comes to actually making that sacrifice is questionable, which is a big shift from the earlier books. Even though you knew Bella would make it through somehow, the threats to her life, and to her relationship with Edward, had previously always felt real. It’s as if Meyer was afraid of hurting her characters too much, which is unfortunate, because the pain Bella suffered at losing Edward in New Moon, and the pain Jacob suffered at losing Bella again and again, are the fire and the heart that drive the whole series. Diehard fans will stick with Bella, Edward, and Jacob for as many twists and turns as possible, but after most of the characters get what they want with little sacrifice, some readers may have a harder time caring what happens next.

You can find major scale pattern diagrams by going to Google.com and searching "major scale patterns." Many web sites will come up that have pattern illustrations available for free. Major scale patterns are also drawn out in many instructional guitar ideas books such as Fretboard ideas and Fretboard Logic.
Memorizing the Patterns
Major scale patterns should be learned one at a time. Visualize the pattern on the fret board and play up and down it until it's wholly memorized. It's not needful to start or end on the root of the scale, but rather just be sure to touch on every note available in a given position.
Major Scale Fingerings
Contrary to what is often taught, there are no spoton or exquisite fingerings for major scale patterns. With that being said, there still are some bad habits that should be avoided. Never do something silly like play through a whole pattern with only one or two fingers (unless you want look and sound like a hack). You've got four fingers so you might as well use them. Work on getting three or four fingers involved. Also, don't shift your hand but rather leave it set and then reach with your fingers. You may need to position your thumb behind the neck of the guitar so that you can spread your fingers and play with the tips.
It's good to determine on an follow fingering that works for you and then use it consistently as you practice, but you'll no doubt use other fingerings when you start as a matter of fact playing music. For example, techniques such as slides, hammer-ons, pull-offs and bends may want you to use your fingers differently.
Alternate Your Pick
Don't spend your practice time reinforcing negative habits. For example, plunking through the scale entirely with downstrokes. Instead, be sure to alternate your pick as you rehearse the scale patterns. This is a good way to kill two birds with one stone because you can found your alternate picking technique while you specialist the scale patterns.
To edge your picking technique, choke up on the pick, keep your hand planted on the guitar body and alternate continuously without skipping or repeating any strokes. Your right hand should rest just above the string you're picking. As your right hand moves across the strings, it should slide over and rest upon the strings that are not being played in order to keep them quiet.
Reference Chords
Every time you learn something new on the fret board you should try to peg it to something familiar. This trick can as a matter of fact help you to found a good working knowledge of music ideas especially when applying guitar ideas to the fret board. This pegging idea can be put to good use with major scales by associating each pattern to a reference chord. For example, patterns one and four can be played right around base barre chords. Other patterns can be connected with barre chords derived from the Caged chord system. If you know how to navigate the fretboard with chord forms, and you link these forms to major scale patterns, then you'll be able to promptly jump into the major scale from any chord or any position. Google crusade the "Caged Template Chord System" to learn more about chord forms on the guitar fretboard.
How Major Scale Patterns Connect
After you have wholly memorized a pattern you can move positions and start on the next. With each new pattern you complete, be sure to go back and relate the others that came before it. This process should be continued until the whole guitar neck is covered. Then you can practice connecting the patterns in both directions across the neck. For example, associate pattern one to pattern two, two to three, three to four, four to five, and then reverse your direction by connecting pattern five back into pattern four, four into three, three into two, and two into one. There may even be room to continue inviting backward by connecting the customary pattern one back into pattern five and so on until you reach the open strings. Don't forget that these open string can be used too.
As you move across the fretboard try to focus on how a part of each pattern is reused in the neighboring position. Visualizing how these pieces associate is needful to navigating the fretboard, mixing and matching music elements, and understanding guitar music theory.
Playing Major Scales in dissimilar Keys
Once you use all the patterns to cover the whole fretboard in one key you can transpose and play in a new key by simply shifting everything to a new starting position. Don't let the fret numbers throw you off in the new key. Instead, focus your concentration on the pattern shapes and fingerings. associate all the patterns in a new key until the fretboard runs out or it's not possible to play any higher. Don't forget about the area of the neck before pattern one begins. You may be able to fit in a pattern five there, perhaps more. Continue this process until all twelve keys are covered. Then you'll as a matter of fact have the patterns down pat!
