A Look at the History of Memory Foam
Acting in the 1967 hit movie The Graduate, Walter Brooke had no idea what he was on to when he forced this nutty piece of advice on Dustin Hoffman:
Mr. McGuire: I want to say one word to you. Just one word.
Benjamin: Yes, sir.
Mr. McGuire: Are you listening?
Benjamin: Yes, I am.
Mr. McGuire: Plastics.
To Brooke's sincere astonishment, "plastics" took the stock market by storm the very next year. The success of plastic, with uses limited only by the imagination, became one of the most important legacies of the 19th and 20th Centuries. If the Oscar-winning director Mike Nichols were ever to update his movie for a modern audience, Mr. McGuire would have two new words for Benjamin: memory foam.
Memory foam is a truly space age material. The United States National Aeronautics and Space Administration developed the first generation of memory foam in the 1970s. Memory foam behaved like a liquid and a solid at the same time. You could press your hand into the surface of the material, and when you lifted it away, you could see your handprint lingering in the material for a short while as the material slowly resumed its original flat state. The "memory" of your hand was strong at first, and then faded with time. Realizing the ability of this new material to both cushion and support, NASA intended to use it in the space shuttle, as a way to take the edge off the G-force impact on astronauts' bodies during lift-off.
The first generation of memory foam never got off the ground. It was too brittle and tended to break down after a year or two. NASA forgot about it.
A Swedish company closely associated with the NASA memory foam project continued tinkering around with the polyurethane compound on their own and, after ten years of further research, produced a version that wouldn't break down over time. It was a spongy, gel-like plastic, whose composite open cells could deform under pressure, redistribute the air pockets to neighboring cells, and return. The next generation of memory foam had arrived.
Tempur-Pedic, now a widely known company, started marketing the material to hospitals for mattress pads to decrease bedsore cases. Patients reported that these mattress pads markedly reduced pressure on joints while lying down, while at the same time providing all the back support they needed. Riding the waves of these rave reviews in the medical world, Tempur-Pedic introduced memory foam to the general populace in the early 1990s. It was very expensive at first, but soon other companies caught wind of memory foam's potential, and now there are dozens and dozens of companies producing more and more memory foam products for demanding consumers every day. Prices continue to decline.
Today, memory foam is most often used in mattresses, mattress toppers, and pillows, but the versatile material is also used in pet beds, footwear, positional sleep aids, office furniture, automobile seat padding, infant cribs and car seats, wheel chair cushions, hip pads and padded sweatpants, computer carrying cases, movie theater seating, pistol gloves, ear plugs, tennis racquet handles, and more.
What would you make with memory foam?"

The Roland TD9 SX Electronic Drum Set is Blazing Hot - Why Are V-Drums So Exceptional?
The Roland TD9 SX Electronic drum set has emerged as a solid standard for drummers of all skill levels as electronic kits have become increasingly popular. Over the past several years drummers of all skill levels have demanded quality in their kits and as a result an explosion of new electronic drum kits have arrived on the scene. Here's my review on why V-Drums are so exceptional.
Whether your and avid electronic drum fan, or a die hard acoustic rocker, it's hard to deny the convenience, portability and versatility that a electronic drum set offers.
Whats an electronic drum set
An electronic drum set is very similar in appearance to an acoustic kit. The difference is that an electric kit uses pads and cymbals which are jacked into an electronic drum module which synthesizes the drum strokes through sensors (triggers) and outputs the sounds. The drum module allows you to assign specific sounds to each pad (device) on the kit. Roland is a leader in breakthrough designs when it comes to this type of technology.
But why Roland?
Because Roland has been tried and tested and pretty much a pioneer in this industry. They were around back in the day right after Simmons first arrived on the scene with their electronic drum pads. The TD-9 is pretty much a mid-level kit and it's development is the direct result of consumer needs and technology.
The Roland TD9 Series
There are plenty of brands out there so whats makes Roland so special?
The Roland TD9sx has become popular with drummers because of it's quality construction, durability and performance. This set is perfect for beginners to intermediate drummers who are in need of a quality kit with an acoustic feel. In fact, many advanced drummers use the TD9 SX as a convenient alternative practice set.
The Brain
The Roland TD9 Drum Module is the heart of any electronic kit and is sometimes referred to as the "brain". The module is the centerpiece of the kit and basically is what make the whole thing work. The Roland TD-9 module has 50 Pre-Set drum kits and over 500 sounds which you can assign to the pads and cymbals.
It also has room for a total of 12 inputs which means you can make yourself a 12 piece kit. Nice.
The Set
The kit itself has all the elements of a regular acoustic kit, except everything is, well, electronic. The pads and cymbals are constructed of a mesh which emulates the touch and feel of an acoustic kit. Some actually prefer the feel and bounce of a mesh head over traditional drum heads. I agree.
If you're in the market for a quality mid level electronic drum set the TD9SX by Roland was built with the serious drummer in mind. It has everything a beginner would ever need and enough to satisfy the advanced drummer as well. This is just a short review of this set. There are many benefits to owning an electronic set such as:
