![]() Broadcast TV is annoying, and getting around ads and air times using a DVR is very 2005. Stream everything because broadcast TV is a jokeĬord-cutting is fun. The full promise of broadband should be accessible to everyone for a reasonable fee, and that’s still not the case. To be clear, it’s still important that higher tiers are available, and that internet providers upgrade their infrastructure, because competition and reliability need to go up and prices need to come down. But you’d be surprised how seldom the speed limit actually comes into play. That said, if you have three kids who like to watch videos simultaneously, or you have a 4K streaming setup that you use a lot, you’ll want to bump that up a bit. I only found out when I literally asked what the cheapest possible option was. But rates like mine might not be advertised prominently or at all. I also work entirely online, stream high-def videos at a dozen sites all day, play games, download movies and do lots of other stuff, sometimes all at the same time. The truth is most people can probably do pretty much everything they need on the lowest tier they offer.Ī 1080p Netflix stream will work fine on a 25 Mbps connection, which is what I have. ISPs offer a ton of choices, and make it confusing on purpose so you end up picking an expensive one just to be sure you have what you need. It helps them out a lot.) Obviously you can’t call every week with new demands, so wait until you think you can actually save some money. (By the way, if you get someone nice, give them a good review if you get the chance, usually right after the call or chat. Feel free to call a few times and do a bit of window shopping. Some will give you the runaround, while others will bend over backwards to help you out. Note that some reps are more game than others. They can always raise rates or upsell you later, but having you as a subscriber is the important thing. What ISPs, and, more importantly, what their customer service representatives care about is keeping you on as a customer. (After all, we know there’s often little or no real competition.) Or you can say your friend just got a promotional rate and you’d like to take advantage of it… otherwise you’ll leave to that phantom competitor. You can say that a competing ISP started offering service at your location and it costs $20 less, so can they match that. You can complain that service has been bad - outages and such - and ask that they compensate you for that. Usually this means calling up and doing one of several things. There’s plenty of grease to go around, so get squeaking. This sounds bad, but it’s just a consequence of how these companies work: The squeaky wheels get the grease. Sometimes that means giving you the special desperation rates ISPs withhold until you say you’re going to leave.Īnd as long as you’re asking… 4. They have no reason to upsell you and every reason to make you happy and get a good review. I don’t mean anything shady like splitting cables with the neighbor, just offers they know about that aren’t publicized because they’re too good to advertise.Ī lot of these service techs are semi-independent contractors paid by the call, and their pay has nothing to do with which service you have or choose. If you do end up having someone come out, talk to them to see whether there are any off the record deals they can offer you. Say you weren’t informed and you’ll inform the Better Business Bureau about it, or take your business elsewhere, or something. ![]() If they charge you for a visit, call them and ask them to take it off your bill. If your ISP wants to send someone out, ask whether it’s free, and if it isn’t, tell them to make it free or ask if you can do it yourself (sometimes it’s for really simple stuff like swapping a cable). It wasn’t an issue on my end, which was why I was surprised to find they’d charged me $30 or so every time the person came. I had an issue with my Comcast internet a while back that took them several visits from a service tech to resolve. Avoid service calls, or if you can’t, insist they’re free Bonus: The ISP is limited in what it can do to the router (like letting other people connect - yes, it’s a thing). Not only that, but you can do stuff like upgrade or change the software on it all you want, because it’s yours. Look online, buy a new or lightly used one, and it will have paid for itself before the year is out. The exact model you need will depend on your service, but it will be listed somewhere, and they should tell you what they’d provide if you ask. What they don’t tell you is you can probably buy the exact same item for somewhere between $30 and $100. ISPs often provide this equipment at the time of install, and then charge you $5 to $10 per month forever. This is the gadget that connects to the cable coming out of your wall, and then connects in turn (or may also function as) your wireless and wired router. ![]() Now you can be sure that all your portraits show only the best version of you - whether you’ll be using them for your professional profile or simply sharing online with friends.

When I’ve done workout dvds before, it’s been a case of “do Level 1 until you’re ok with it, then move on to Level 2” or “here are 5 different workouts, pick whichever one you want to do.” In both of those, I invariably end up doing the same one or two workouts over and over for a week or so, and then getting bored and eating chocolate instead. In fact, I didn’t even do the Drench workout until this week. I’ve been doing the workouts a month, and I’ve yet to get bored. Each one has variations of the same sort of moves, and there are a lot of tricep push ups. The kit also comes with a Quick Start Guide which tells you what to expect from each workout, and how long they are, and an Eating Plan which helps you to plan meals and suchlike.Īfter the alignment session, you move on to the proper workouts: Define: Lower Body Define: Upper Body Sweat Core Strength Intervals Buns Drench. It was really only an orientation, but I still felt sore after doing it! This session is 40 minutes long and shows you what you’re looking for in certain moves, where you should feel a stretch, what you’re working. I stuck it onto my fridge, and set about doing the initial “Alignment” session. When the kit arrived I was impressed to find that as well as a box set with 3 dvds, 8 workouts and one bonus workout, the set came with a workout schedule for the first 8 weeks. How often do you watch these videos where they bend completely double, hands on the floor, and you’re looking at them thinking, er… I can reach my knees if I try.įorward to around 7 minutes in, to see Chalene demonstrating some of the moves.Īfter seeing that video a couple of times, I decided to give it a go, so I used an Amazon voucher I’d been given to pay for a PiYo Base Kit and waited excitedly for it to arrive. What I loved was that firstly, Chalene talked about it being a workout that helped her to get rid of aches and pains and nagging injuries – and I have a fair few of those! I also loved how she was showing Keith some of the moves, and explaining how to do them if you’re less flexible or “advanced.” I liked that when she was getting Keith to demonstrate the moves, she had him barely bending over, and told him not to go any further because she wanted to keep his back straight. In it, Chalene shows Keith, her co-presenter, some basic PiYo moves. ![]() When it finished, another began playing a Beachbody Live chat from last year, when the PiYo dvds were first released. I heard about PiYo completely by mistake, while watching a YouTube video by Chalene Johnson. Grapevines and crunches and blah, blah, blah. But I couldn’t bring myself to put one of those dvds into my player and go back to doing endless lunges and jumping around. More lunges…įor months, I’d been thinking I really needed to get back into some form of exercise. ![]() Without fail, I start off with all the good intentions in the world, do the workout a handful of times and then just get bored. I’ve done the celebrity new year dvds, the hardcore workouts like 30 Day Shred, the inbetween ones like the Davina McCall ones. The default is 200, so down to 150 or 100 might work, possibly 50. We provide you with the developer tools you need to make sure your game is the best it can be!. A workaround is the make the mesh whole, but that takes a lot of time.

Agreed – not as convenient as pulling up the VST directly to mess around. It takes some initial setup time, but you can select a VST voice like any OAX voice once completed. That’s the best way I found to use a VST in OAX. We will go over linking OAX User sounds to the Pianoteq presets, which will allow us to select different pianos from that VST directly from the OAX touchscreen. I’m getting a second cup of coffee and then starting video three. You are correct regarding accessing the VST interface via the Settings-VST Host. I’ll summarize – Yes, I have had the same issues. So what am I doing wrong? Do other people have this problem?Ī third trivial question is what is the impact on OAX and limitations of the 3 different options (“How many VST sounds do you want to create for this plugin?”) when you first install a VST?. I have found absolutely no way round this problem (I have tried) and basically give up until I reload the organ. selecting EDIT and even reloading the VST) – the VST user interface refuses outright to display on the screen. The second more serious problem is this procedure seems to work about 4 times and then no matter what you do (i.e. I cannot believe that this is the recommended routine procedure as its terrible. But this is really not particularly user friendly and I cannot find any other way of doing it. For example how do you actually get it to display? It works if you go from the main Sonic screen via ‘settings’ two left swipes a click on the VST Host icon and then click on EDIT. No the problem is with the VST’s own graphic interface. So they install OK and seem to work superficially – as in if I spent more time with them – then I’m sure they would be fine. I have tried 4 different VST instruments and have experienced the same problem with all of them. No the problem is the Wersi VST host which I find very clunky and not particularly reliable. I should say that I am extremely experienced with VSTs as I have dozens of them and have been using them in a synth setup for 16 years (Note: if anyone wants a fantastic Windows/Apple VST host then try one called Gig Performer – feature rich and rock solid) so that’s not the issue. The Pianoteq Steinway D piano is very articulate - like a Fazioli, but more harmonically complex.īut as always, it is wonderful as a player - that piano is just always responsive in a very musical way.Can I please ask for some advice on VST use on OAX as I’m having problems. There's no unusual resonances or peaks in the sound - and in that way "perfect", or idealized. There's no noise from hammers hitting the rest rail (which shouldn't happen on a freshly regulated piano, but currently happens on mine). It seems to be a "close mic'd", relatively immediate sound on the default "Prelude" voice. Pianoteq is almost like a perfect idealized piano sound, right after a concert quality tuner gets done with a world-class piano. Individual notes sound a little "wider" on my real grand, richer. It makes a fuller more harmonically complex sound. There's subtle variations in tuning (even though it is freshly tuned), and more more soundboard "bleed". A little bit of reverb pushes it back just a bit and makes it sit a bit better. Played louder than an acoustic, in my studio, it sounds like a too close mic'd piano played too loud. Played at the same volume as my acoustic grand it is delightful. I ran it through the studio monitors and the Fulcrum PA. The Steinway D is wonderful in the upgrade. Of course, it comes along with the fact that Lenore is brutally murdered just as she and Bryan are reconciling and then Bryan is accused of the murder and ends up with the LAPD, FBI, CIA, and other special forces hunting him down as well as the bad guys who really did kill Lenore, but, you know.yay, no kidnapping.ĭespite the fact that this sequel was not necessary, I can't even lie to myself: I'm gonna see it anyway. After all that, personally, I don't think I'd want to travel anymore.Īnyway, if you're hoping for this movie to answer that question, bad news - judging by the trailer, it doesn't, because no one's actually taken this time! Which, you know, is great news. Directed by Olivier Megaton and Starring Liam Neeson, Forest Whitaker, Famke Janssen, Maggie Grace, Dougray Scott. Consumed with rage, and framed for the crime, he goes on the run to evade the relentless pursuit of the CIA, FBI and the police. Like, seriously, during the first movie Bryan Mills' daughter Kim (Maggie Grace) is taken, and in the second, his ex-wife Lenore (Famke Janssen) is taken. Liam Neeson returns as ex-covert operative Bryan Mills, whose reconciliation with his ex-wife is tragically cut short when she is brutally murdered. ![]() While it's hard to deny that Taken and Taken 2 were both supremely enjoyable, popcorn-type movies, it did however beg the question of how many times can the Mills family experience being taken before they just give up and move to a private island with Kimye-level security. But all you need to know is that it's happening, the title is stylized as Tak3n, there's already a poster, and its going to be released on Jan. Why? I honestly have no clue, apart from the studio and the actors really wanting to milk this cash cow for as many dollars (or should I say euros, since this is technically a French production?) as they can before the idea is really tired, or Liam Neeson doesn't look threatening enough to kick everyone's ass anymore. Though I'm sure many of you have been in disbelief about a third Taken movie happening for quite some time - I know I have been - here is undeniable, unavoidable proof of its existence: Taken 3 is happening, and the first trailer is here. ![]() ![]() While some people may consider this symbol one for mathematicians, the infinity tattoo design is actually a very popular tattoo design in the general population and in its own right.” The infinity tattoo design and symbol, on the other hand, is one that is non-religious, but holds much meaning and is very beautifully simple. “Most tattoos that fulfill both of these criteria are religious symbols like the Star of David, cross or aum (om) symbols. “There are few tattoos that can hold much meaning and still look beautifully simple,” commented Tattoo Destination. The most popular places to put them are on inner wrists, in between fingers, or on the lower neck/upper shoulder area, although I have seen many on ankles and behind ears, as well as some on the upper arms or forearms. Others include the double infinity, the infinity within a heart, or the infinity in a celtic knot. Another popular design combines the feather design as the center of the infinity, often with some of the aforementioned words on the outside. A popular design is combining the tattoo with words, such as “life”, “love”, “dream”, “infinity”, “faith”, “strength”, “hope”, “family”, and the phrases “I refuse to sink”, “and beyond” or “Love yourself”. ![]() More often than not, infinity tattoos are paired with something else. The concept of infinite time or endless possibilities is incredibly intriguing to most and can add to the appeal of this type of artwork.” The interlocked symbols are reminiscent of Celtic knotwork this making them seem more intricate than they are.The infinity symbol tattoo design can hold great meaning to the wearer no matter where they hail from. “This can be seen as meaning “forever and ever” or can depict the love from two souls being together forever. “Another choice, made popular by the ABC series “Revenge”, is that of two infinity symbols interlocking,” TattooSEO pointed out. For religious meaning a cross can intersect the looping lines to reflect ones never-ending faith.” Interlocking Infinity (via Flickr) One can even add additional symbols such a hearts, stars or other embellishments to add to the flair of the design. These of course signify a relationship that will never end and are often used as matching tattoos for two or more people. Popular choices for this type of tattoo include a word or phrase inside the loop, such as “love”, “life” or “friendship”. “Historically, this symbol is similar to mythological creatures such as Ouroboros the snake which consumed its tail and became a creature without end. The endless loops and circles that comprise the infinity symbol can also be likened to the seasonal cycle which endlessly repeats year after year. These tattoos, while simple, can be customized in a variety of ways. ![]() Some cultures also believe it to represent rebirth or reincarnation,” said TattooSEO, a blog for artists and enthusiasts of ink. In the tattoo world this can be seen as a symbol of never-ending or limitless possibility. The infinity symbol, often used in mathematics, represents a never-ending loop and is depicted as a number 8 on its side. “Infinity tattoos are steadily on the rise with many people opting to get these in one form or another. Is infinity our life times? Or something more? It evokes a nostalgic feeling for times gone by, and a sense of wonder for times to come, both that we know we will experience and things we hope to experience after our bodies expire. There is something about it that feels mysterious, as many of us don’t know what infinity is. However, infinity signs symbolize the eternal. This week’s trend is infinity, something that may have gained it’s popularity from John Green’s book, A Fault in Our Stars. I’m going to look into how the trend started, what the common meanings for the tattoos are, and possibly pinpoint why they have struck a chord with our society. Personally, I hate how we look down on women for following trends. So, in order to attempt to de-stigmatize many styles such as these, I’ve decided to look deeper into some trends in the alternative world that have been deemed too “main stream” by our growingly cynical society. There is definitely a stigma in the tattoo world of getting a “white girl tattoo.”Īnchors, feathers, swallows, any quotes written in cursive (whether it be biblical, personal, or from a song), or anything to do with an infinity sign are almost taboo because of how mainstream they have become (weird, right?).
