To create a golf swing that is repeatable and powerful, the big muscles need to be used. Find out how with this tip.
The 'muscles' of a golf swing are a way of referring to the different parts of the body rather than a particular muscle or muscle group so have no fear, a biology degree is not needed! The 'big' muscles of a golf swing are usually described as the back, shoulder and trunk areas and the 'little' muscles are a way of describing the hand, arm and wrist areas of the body.
The golfer needs to use the bigger muscles of the body to create a golf swing as the bigger muscles are; stronger and so can produce more power for greater distance; bigger and so produce bigger movements that are easier to control for accuracy; fewer and so a golf swing will be more consistent as there are less movements to repeat.
Imagine the golf swing as a circle or arc. The club head should swing around the outside of the circle in a consistent fashion. The bigger muscles (shoulders and hips) allow this to happen as they rotate around the spine which is the centre of the circle. If we imagine a wheel, the arms are the spokes of the wheel, staying still, keeping the club head the same distance away from the body throughout the swing on the same circle. Using the small muscles of the arms and hands means that the arms bend at the elbow pulling the circle closer in towards the body. More movement in the limbs means less likelihood of performing the same set of movements each time.
As an additional note, the further the golf club is away from the body, the faster it will travel creating a longer golf shot. If the arms bend at the elbow, the closer the club head is to the body and the slower it will travel losing distance instead.
Here is an exercise to get the bigger muscles to swing the golf club. Practice swinging like a baseball swing. Stand up straight rather than setting up with the golf club on the floor and swing the golf club horizontally around the body at approximately chest height. While doing this, keep the arms still and feel the hips and shoulders powering the movement. Slowly with each swing, bend forwards from the hips making sure that the shoulders do not curve forward, and lower down to the ball still feeling the 'bigger muscles' of the hips and shoulders swinging the club rather than the arms and hands. The swing should feel more rounded and the club should feel like it is being swung behind and around the body rather than over the head in the backswing.
Swing through the ball in this way and the swing will be more under control, providing more consistent golf shots.

You may be familiar with the work chiropractors do to adjust the spine. They usually do this to treat conditions like back pain, neck pain, and headaches.
Some chiropractors say they can also treat kids with learning and attention issues, especially attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Here's a closer look at this alternative therapy.
Joints can become restricted after an injury or over time by repetitive stress or poor posture. These injuries can cause pain and inflammation. Chiropractic therapy uses manipulation, also called adjustments, to correct the alignment of the spine and other parts of the body. The idea is that repositioning joints and tissues allows them to work properly.
Many chiropractors also believe that trauma to the spine can begin at birth and continue throughout life. This causes a poor alignment of the spine, so the body doesn't function as it should. Some chiropractors believe that if the skull isn't aligned correctly, it can cause uneven pressure on the brain, leading to ADHD. They claim adjustments can correct this imbalance, reducing ADHD symptoms.
Chiropractic treatment often starts with an examination of a child's vision, hearing and reflexes. This might involve flashing light in the child's eye, or having him to listen to music in one ear. Based on this exam, the chiropractor will decide what issue to treat. He then creates an individualized treatment plan for the child.
A chiropractor may also give parents exercises to do with their child at home. The exercises are tailored to the child's challenges. For kids with planning or organizational issues, parents may be asked to do "timing therapies" such as clapping or tapping along to a metronome. The idea is that these exercises, along with the spinal adjustments, will improve brain function in a child.
This type of therapy is provided by chiropractors. They receive special training but don't attend traditional medical schools. Not all chiropractors treat kids with learning and attention issues.
You generally don't need a referral from a primary care doctor to see a chiropractor. However, some health insurance plans may require a referral.
So far, there have been no scientific studies that prove chiropractic therapy can help kids with ADHD or learning issues. Of the studies conducted on chiropractic therapy for kids with ADHD, the results have been inconclusive. Further research is needed.
What chiropractors believe about the cause of learning and attention issues is not consistent with what experts know. For example, experts and scientists know that the bones in the skull don't move. This is contrary to what chiropractors say about chiropractic adjustment helping develop the brain.
Chiropractic therapy isn't likely to harm your child. However, there is no clear evidence to show that it can help kids with learning and attention issues.

India's Income Tax Department has challenged a court decision to freeze one of its many demands on Vodafone.
The telecoms giant was accused last February of undervaluing shares transferred between Vodafone India and Vodafone Teleservices Mauritius in 2007-08. Vodafone challenged the Transfer Pricing Order (TPO) in the Bombay High Court, arguing that the Order had "no base in law," because share subscriptions do not fall under the remit of India's transfer pricing rules. Its petition also argued that the Government had no jurisdiction in the case, because a precedent had been established in a separate tax dispute, involving the acquisition of mobile phone company Hutchison Essar.
In September, the High Court ruled that transfer pricing authorities did have the right to investigate the alleged underreported cross-border transactions. It did nevertheless request that the Income Tax Department delay the issue of a final assessment order. In December, the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT) stayed the demand for a further six months, and instructed Vodafone to pay an initial deposit of INR2bn (USD32.6m) in two monthly instalments of INR1bn. The company must make corporate guarantees for the entire sum due, totalling INR35bn.
India's Economic Times claims to have spoken with two officials familiar with the case. One of its sources said that a plea had been filed challenging the High Court order. The authorities take the view that Vodafone India "should have been asked to pay a higher amount of around 25 percent of the demand as [a] deposit with the Department."
The Department has questioned Vodafone's reference to the Hutchison Essar case, contending that the precedent set "regarding deposits by assessees should have been followed," and raised concerns about the "enforceability of corporate guarantees."

At Wiz Khalifa's Friday night concert at Shoreline Amphitheatre, a man was shot and killed backstage. Now six people associated with the tour — including Def Jam rapper Young Jeezy — have been arrested on weapons charges, the Chronicle reports. Orinda resident Eric Johnson was reportedly shot multiple times around 11 p.m., during Khalifa's set, according to CBS San Francisco. The 38-year-old succumbed to his injuries at a hospital on Saturday. Khalifa's camp canceled the following date of the Under the Influence of Music tour, Saturday, August 23 in Chula Vista, but continued on Sunday, August 24 to play Verizon Wireless Amphitheater in Irvine where Mountain View detectives were waiting with search warrants (sfist.com)

Broad-based Depressed Acne Scars Filled in Painlessly with Silikon-1000 - West Orange, NJ
Dr. J ROCKS! I drove from Kentucky (13 hours) to be treated by Dr. J and it was well worth it. After only one treatment, my acne scars are more improved than I thought possible. A couple of years ago, I noticed some depressions forming on my cheeks and I had a DOT laser treatment by another doctor in an attempt to improve them.

Obviously people like the Alerts .. so vBulletin copied them ... but vB's implementation just doesn't feel the same.
Implementation is everything !
I was just browsing google news today and noticed their new "hover over the title" dropdown popup !
It was discrete (not visible before hovering) but quick to popup when I wanted it. Just like Xenforo alerts .... it just works well.
This could be something to emulate for "Thread tools" in xenforo.

Fractions Used In Everyday Life
By. Nadia Bucks
Did you know, you use fractions everyday in your life? For example, this pizza, say that Lily wants to divide this pizza up with three of her friends and herself. The problem would be 4/8 ÷ 2, so how to divide that you would have to take 2 and make it a fraction. The fraction would be 2/1, but if you want to divide it you'll have to change it to a multiplication problem instead. So change the 2/1 to 1/2 and then multiply 4/8 × 1/2, which the answer would be 1/4. So each of Lily's friends, including her, would get two slices each. Lily chooses to invite a friend over the next day to hang out and she needs snacks.
Lily went to the store and bought some apples for when her friend Lexi came over. When Lily got back, she cut up her apples and gives her best friend, Lexi, four apple slices. So how to figure this out, you have to count how many slices you have, which is six, and subtract four. Let's turn them into fractions so we can find the remaining fraction left. The fractions will be 6/6 - 4/6, how to get the answer is to subtract the numerator by the numerator but don't subtract the denominators. They will stay the same. So 6/6 - 4/6 is 2/6, are you done? Not yet, because we would need to simplify or your answer will be wrong. Take 2/6 and find a number that goes into both of the numbers. The number would be two, so then you divide 2 ÷ 2 = 1 and 6 ÷ 2 = 3. So you got your answer, Lily gave Lexi 2/3, you divide 4/6 by two, of apples and have 1/3 left over. After her hang out with Lexi, she decides to go to bed because she was very tired.
The next day, Lily went to her garden the next day and planted 1/4 orchid flowers, 3/10 cilantro plants, 1/4 carrots, and 1/5 grass plants. Her neighbor gave her 1/2 of her garden because she was moving, how much does she have in all? So you first need to find a common denominator for all of them, which would be 20. So you need to change all of the denominators, 5/20, 6/10, 5/20, 4/20, and 10/20. So now add them all together and you'll get 30/20, but wait, that's an improper fraction. So now you need to change it to a mixed number. You take your fraction and see how many times your denominator, 20, goes into your numerator, 30. It goes in one time, take the left over number and make it your numerator. Then your answer will be 1 10/20, but then simply which will end up as 1 1/2, so Lily has 1 1/2 plants in all. After she finished her garden, she went inside to make some food for her party in a few days.
Lily chose to make lasagna for her party. She looked at the invitation list and wants to make sure she has enough for everybody to have some. She has a lasagna recipe for only five people and you're having a party where fifteen people are invited. She uses 3/4 of cheese in the recipe but she now needs to triple it. How much cheese will Lily put in her recipe then? So how you multiply is you take your fraction and multiply it by how many more times you need to make it, which in our case is three. Take 3/4 and multiply it by 3/1 (three as a fraction). Do the numerators first, so 3 × 3 = 9 and then 4 × 1 = 4. It'll turn out to be 9/4, but you need to make it a mixed number. Change it by seeing how many times 4 goes into 9, which is 2, and take the remainder and make it the numerator, the answer now is 2 1/4. Lily used 2 1/4 cups of cheese to make her recipe for the party.
Lily applied for a job to babysit, and is making $25 an hour and gets a 10% raise, how much does she make an hour? Before we do anything else, we need to find out what 10% would be if it was a fraction. So 10% would be 10/100 but simplify it and you'll get 1/10. She makes an additional 1/10 of her salary an hour, or $2.50. We got the $2.50 because when you'll dealing with money, 10/10 is $25.00. So if you add $2.50 to $25, you will get an answer of $27.50. Lily makes $27.50 for her new salary an hour. She babysat many children and earned so much money from it. When she grew up, she decided that she wanted to own a babysitting business with her best friend. The End.

While a smaller dimension is a benefit as a result of its simplicity of mounting, it will be undesirable when its high-end features are compromised or trimmed. GoPro has done an excellent job in generating a camera along with the essential features loaded in a very little package.
On top of all this the cameras are fashioned for capturing this kind of action - with 170 degree lenses to capture widescreen images, besides the hi-def 1080p video footage you can be rest assured that the images will look crisp and pro even after you're going at high speeds.

Any one instance would make a fantastic YouTube video or an excellent Facebook profile picture - the one difficulty is actually capturing any of that footage for you in an effort to use. There are numerous things which make capturing action shots very tough. For instance there is certainly the truth that you (and perhaps the camera) are moving at huge speeds.

Then there is certainly the truth that what you're doing is dangerous. It's dangerous quicker for you so to produce a camera develop a glass lens it's in fact highly risky and you shouldn't be too surprised if you end up smashing or breaking it. After which there could be the fact that it's such a complicated challenge and again so dangerous - for the reason that you do not have no cost hand to bring photos and meaning that you can't really get someone else to take them either.

These kits will probably record to some better compared to a wireless unit. This is because they could be a bit bigger altogether, as each part is separate and wired together. This makes them dearer and potentially take longer to set up. The greatest advantage here could be that the camera unit is generally smaller and the quality is nearer to DVD quality.

What you are really looking for now's another person to ease things up ' not harder. You recognize, somebody to carry an additional camera, who is going to capture those shots that you might miss while you're shooting something else.
After being inspired by all of the shots of riders with multiple cameras affixed to their helmets and handlebars, it occurred to you this you could attach a GoPro to the DSLR camera you're already carrying. It sure doesn't weigh sufficient to impede your shooting. When things get interesting, it's a straightforward thing to press the Record button on the GHero remote simply ignore it roll until a battery malfunction runs out. While you are waiting for the height no matter the action, or the ideal expression, the GoPro is recording it all in 1920x1080 high-definition video at 30 frames per second. In the event you miss the smile or the peak action, it's sure great to understand that your chosen assistant ' let's call him Hero 4 ' has grabbed the shot for me.
Make use of an off-camera flash bracket, mount the GoPro Hero slightly above in order to the left of your camera. Like that, between shots, while you are changing positions, your GoPro can operate and capture a few of the fantastic thing about the ship you're sailing on. It can also record wide angle shots useful for backgrounds later when doing page layouts for a photograph feature. You might enjoy an attractive day and might be incredibly impressed with the photographs recorded situated on the GoPro, both in the course of the light rain also in the extraordinary mid-day sun.
The attached video ought to be labeled: Photos and video by GoPro Hero, because you never touched the shutter taking any of these. They had been all taken with the camera running while you were concentrating on other things. But hey, assistants don't get bylines, which means that it remains: Photos by You. The stills are everything just frame grabs you probably did while reviewing the recording playback. The sharpness, contrast and color might be amazing. You won't be capable to wait to study this for other adventures. This behavior was all possible when using the LCD Touch BacPac accessory. With a real-time video screen showing you what is being captured, you would align the GoPro conveniently along with your DSLR. Additionally it will explain that if you wanted to use yourgiant f2.8 300mm lens, you would need to jack along the GoPro to avoid achieveing the lense in the shot. Conversely, when you use a limited point and shoot, even at widest angle at my GoPro, the digital camera is not in the way.
The HD 4k camera's specs are amazing, with as many various video shooting modes as you could ever want. Pick anything from WXGA as much as 4K Cin. Try to 1080p and also you will be quite happy. What you're looking at on YouTube or Vimeo this is definitely compressed and reduced variety of what you will see on your desktop, but it continues not to be looks awesome. In still camera mode, you can shoot resolutions from 5 to 12 MP, bursts up to 30 per second, continuous shooting at 3, 5 or 10 frames per second or time lapse at 0.5, 1, 2, 5, 10, 30, or 60 second intervals. This assistant has got it together.
GoPro Hero 4 also lets you control any all video/camera settings from your smartphone by applying the free GoPro app designed for iOS or Android. While Hero 3 Black Edition includes a remote control, you can even control your camera with full live video preview by applying the app.
With all the mounting options available for GoPro and now with two additional batteries charged and able to go, You will see lots of other chances to use it. You can even monitor the action and record it from around the corner, in the following room.
The first one i will address, you'd need to determine what sport you want a wearable camera for. Might it be going to be for skydiving, snowboarding or off tarmac motorcycle racing? If you need it for surfing, you are going to need to get one which is waterproof, obviously. Reckoning on how "brutal," your sport is (if it can involve a lot of knocks and bumps), you are if you would like to need to have a camera that's enclosed in a tough removable casing and one that's extremely durable as well. If you need or just need a gadget that may capture a large-angle view, then you definitely need to decide on a cam that may be joined to your helmet. Otherwise, in case it is for something that you might want to fix to join with your bike's handlebars, your surfboard or your chest, remember to purchase one in union with the suitable mounting kit.
Next, you'd need to consider your budget. Depending on the brand, prices of GoPro accessories for action cameras vary widely. Of course, generic camera accessories there are lots less expensive than brand names. However particularly for clearer videos involving lots of action, top quality accessories will be the recommended choice. If you just need a person to capture hiking moments along with your dog then standard xcessories would do just as well. However, the perfect the rule of thumb to keep up with is in the event you can afford it, then go for one that affords you the perfect image, the ideal resolution and the ideal video quality. Do not forget that your camera accessories shall be stained, so that you have to put money into one that will not get destroyed easily.
Another essential point that's important with regards to looking for GoPro accessories in your sport camera is whether or not it is going to resolve your recordings for a period time. You have to become older sometime. And there will come a chance when age and infirmity (in case your sport doesn't get the better of your first) won't will let you do these items that you are now doing. While all wearable cameras now turn into obsolete sooner or later, it continues to be possible to preserve the memories for a while in your grand children to see what a very nice granddad you're. You may just have to choose accessories with long-term warranties. So, you are able to do things such as, transferring your videos easily inside of PC which you could save and create backups and still may be viewed thirty years from now.

There's only 17 seconds left in the half with no time outs, and Romo hurries them up to the line. But.....the whistle blows, and action is stopped. Dez Bryant is told to leave the field. His helmet sensors have signaled to the doctors that he got an impact reading on his last block for Murray that registered too high to play the next play. He must leave the field for further evaluation, and he may be done for the game based on league rules for maximum impact. Yes, the NFL is working on helmet sensors for this very reason. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2013/09/04/nfl-moving-closer-to-using-helmet-sensors/ This would probably be the last nail in the coffin for me and the NFL.

Practicing Guitar: Self Discipline or Fun?
Mahesh posted a blog entry in Songstuff StuffPracticing your instrument is an art in itself. For guitarists, some find it a very fun routine while others look at practicing their finger exercises and scales regularly as a discipline and may see it as a boring chore. There is no reason why it can be both: a disciplined process and a fun activity. Finding the right balance between the two is very essential. The following article gives you insight on what it means to practice with discipline and to practice with fun. It also gives you tips on how to balance both of these aspects and make the most of your daily routines. http://www.songstuff.com/guitar/article/practicing_guitar_self_discipline/ Be sure to share and like the article if you find it useful.

Preparing for the Linnstrument
TapperMike posted a blog entry in The LinnstrumentalistWhen I made the decision to purchase a linnstrument I knew I'd have challenges before me. First arranging the money, then coping with the wait (it will be close to two weeks from decision till delivery. Setting up my studio to accommodate the linnstrument and still having access to all the other physical objects required. I've decided to make the most of this waiting period by practicing concepts before it arrives, printing out an image and securing the image to a sturdy folding table. Now for the challenges For a guitarist,,,,,,Everything is upside down and backwards when playing the linnstrument as a desktop instrument!!!! Not only that.the lowest note is... F# So as soon as the linnstrument arrives I'm transposing it to C. There are numerous reasons for this. Including when instruments are sampled they rarely are to the full range of the instrument. Rather plugin makers often sample a few (or sometimes only one) keys and then shelf the octaves above and below. Each octave downward gets continually grainy sounding due to the artificial transposition of the note. The breaking point is always...C As well If you have spent much time transcribing piano C is usually the lowest note played on the piano for a song. Which introduces a new challenge... I should have printed out a mock up of the linnstrument with the proper tuning I'll be using. It would have made the transition from mock up to usage easier. Here's where things get interesting. There are no "How to play the linnstrument books or videos or online lessons. I'll be the first. For us linnstrumentalists on the bleeding edge of a new frontier. We are left with watching videos to try and grasp at concepts or to our own devices. A simple example... Scales. With one hand you can play 4 finger scales, three finger scales, and two finger scales ...oh yeah you can also play five finger(thumb) scales. That's one hand... You can also play all the above mentioned with the other. With two hands combined you can also play scales. I did some demos of playing 1+2 and 2+2 approaches for the ztar here - And Here - Here's another interesting facet about playing the linnstrument. Each one hand primary (three notes only) chord has three different shapes. Three for major, three for minor and three for diminished. Once you master those three "Shapes" you can transpose them to anything. Which is fine but as you expand your chords more options become available as to what finger does what. . A Linnstrument can play up to three notes per string simultaneously. I as a musician am not a natural. People often compliment me for my graceful performances as if they are too magical to be anything but natural. Even the gift of self discipline isn't a gift. I have to work to make it a reality.
Improve Your Vocal Range
Mahesh posted a blog entry in Songstuff StuffThough it might not be an absolute necessity for a singer to have a wide vocal range, it does prove to be a huge asset when it comes to giving a powerful and emotional performance. Singers such as Freddie Mercury (Queen), Steven Tyler (Aerosmith) and Myles Kennedy (Alter Bridge) are great examples of singers who've shown vocal power and range being used to its maximum potential. Even for an experienced singer, the vocal range cannot be expanded in a day or two. It needs consistent and dedicated vocal routines and the right technique used in combination. The following article presents you with a few exercises and tips to help you expand your range without pushing and straining your voice but through the application of correct and proven techniques. http://www.songstuff.com/vocals/article/3_ways_improve_your_singing_range/ Be sure to share and like the article if you find it useful.

Vocal Warm-Ups for Singers
Mahesh posted a blog entry in Songstuff StuffVocal warm-ups are an invaluable practice and some would even say, an absolute necessity when it comes down to being a professional or semi-professional singer. I'm sure there is no one here who would want to settle for a mediocre performance or for something that could easily be made better with proper vocal practice. One of the most important realizations I've had as a singer-songwriter and a performing musician is that I'm able to express better and to move the audience better when I'm at ease with the songs I'm singing. While singing a song, if the singer is too worried (and distracted) about whether he or she will hit that high note or whether that vibrato can be easily sustained, then the emotional quality of the performance maybe compromised. The following article deals with a few tips and exercises that maybe used in your warm-up routine to help you deliver a powerful performance! http://www.songstuff.com/vocals/article/vocal_warm_ups/ Be sure to share and like the article if you find it useful.

Do You Ever Feel Like Quitting?
Glenn Allen posted a topic in PerformanceI gave up music for the entire year when my first son was born. I was playing drums in a jazz quartet, and it got to feel like clocking in each Saturday, same venue, same songs, same people, same pay. When I took a paternity leave, I realized I didn't miss gigging, so I quit the band and stopped playing all of my other instruments and only wrote one song that year. My self-identity had been so tied up in being a musician that I needed to know if I could handle life as non-musician. I have to say, it was a great year; I learned to cook, went on a 30 day juice fast, became a yellow belt in Kali/Escrima in under 6 months, and I took up archery lessons. by the time my son turned one, I got the itch to pick up my bass again and decided to take my playing to a new level and I immediately started looking for work that would stretch my comfort level a bit. My first audition was terrible. I was nervous, the band was lifeless and distant as the moon and, although they said I made the cut to the second round of auditions, I never got a call back. Right away that nagging voice in the back of my head started screaming, "give up, you're not good enough, you're parents were right, you should have gotten a job with your sister at her office, you're not in your twenties, you'll never make it as a musician." Even though I wanted to quit, I decided to reply to one more ad for a trio looking for a bassist. A week later I got a call, and unlike the previous band leader, our personalities clicked. Luckily, the band played some of the songs I had already learned for my previous audition so I felt confident. We got together and "jammed" (which is really just an audition but psychologically it takes the pressure off) and I got hired in two of the band leaders bands out of the one jam/audition. The catch was, I had to learn roughly 80 songs in a month (which I did with a similar systematic approach that got me to become a yellow belt in such a short period of time). This isn't the first time in my life where I had to keep going even though I wanted to quit? Does anybody else struggle with that? Do you ever tell yourself things like, " I have been playing for years, but I still can't do (skill/technique/song)?
Drum Loops For Free
LichDesign posted a topic in PerformanceHello there, I hope this is the right topic for this. I make drum loops with a drum program and sometimes with my E-kit. The reason behind is to let everybody to practice, jam, compose or record for free. I'd like to make a huge collection of any styles of drumming for everybody to have a good time with them instead of practicing with metronome all the time. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLs1_py20462eWjZWnI0io4knuit7vscuy Any feedbacks, shares, likes or comments are welcome.

Review: Yamaha Thr10C The Little Amp That Can.
TapperMike posted a blog entry in TapperMike's BlogAs an apartment dwelling guitarist one of the greatest frustrations I have is coaxing quality tones from my guitar amps without disturbing the neighbors. While I already have a Roland Cube 60 with cosm technology I always was a little let down by the amp modelling and very let down in the fact that I'd have to crank it past acceptable levels to try and coax the tones out of the speaker. Yeah the Cube is great for small clubs in band situations where the tone is often lost in the wash of other instruments and room dynamics. But I wanted something else. My 40 year old pignose wasn't getting any younger or better sounding and I'd sold a few amps that I didn't feel I needed anymore as I wasn't going out on stage on a weekly basis. Enter the THR Yamaha has a few thr models out now. 5 watt version, A 10 watt standard version a 5watt acoustic only version, a 10 watt Heavy Metal version and mine. I won't get into all the differences here as there are plently of references for the rest of the models online. I got the THR10C specifically for the "C" Combo amps. Not just a guitar amp Normally, Reviewers put this in the last little bits of a column, When I'm in the kitchen cooking or cleaning up I'll ofted put it on the counter and listed to music with the THR. It not only has a guitar line in it has a usb connection and a stereo pin plug suitable for portable devices like smartphones and ipods. The sound is quite "high definition" with a near field amp / speaker design that doesn't need eq for non guitar inputs. Stunning, simply stunning. There are two volume controls on the far right side of the top. One is for the level of the guitar amp after modeling and the other is for the usb and/or external analog input. The USB in on the back serves as both a conduit for the THR software editor and as a sound card. The sound card operates at a respectable 24bit/48k on my vista machine. The soundcard utilizes Steinberg's asio drivers (not a generic ASIO4ALL) and a version of Steinberg's daw software is included (though I chose not to install it). While at first I had some sorting issues as I'll often run two daws with different drivers at the same time. Once I sorted things out it worked like a charm in all my hosts/daws. Noticeably lower latency compared to my internal sound card (realtec) and my external m-audio fast track. It just works. As well due to the design I can send both the modeled amp and a clean guitar signal to my host application. Which is extremely handy when I decide to use a third party plugin to handle amp modelling. Reamping and side chaining is something that are new to me in regards to guitar sounds. The THR10c has replaced my sound card and speaker system on all levels. I'm using it whenever I'm on the computer. Online video's internet radio and even recording. It truly is the end all be all. The Profile About the side of a bread box. A little narrower (front to back) and longer (left to right) Width 360mm Height 183.5mm Depth 140mm Runs on 6 "AA" batteries or via power supply. The Amp Sims For the record there are only five amp sims not eight. There are indeed 8 settings but only 5 can be considered amp modelling. The other three... well you'll have to scroll down a bit for more on that. Deluxe True to it's name the Deluxe is a very very faithful recreation of a fender deluxe. Although I'm sure someone with a real deluxe is wanting to go fisticuffs with me over that. Unlike the original THR10 the THR10c version doesn't break up untill everything is cranked and then it is only slightly noticeable. If you want some serious crunch tones consider other amp models or putting a stomp box between your guitar and the amp in. That's not to say it doesn't have punchy tube like compression or crunch value when the master and the gain are cranked. It's there and in your face. Thank goodness for the separate "guitar amp" volume control on the far right. With that I can get all the tone of all the amp settings without the cops showing at my door. Yes it is a rather loud ten watts when you need it. The yamaha virtual circuitry models the amp at all stages including how the power tubes react not just the pre's. This is something of which I could never attain from my roland cube. The technology mimics all tube amp behavior. Including reaction to string attack. play softly or roll off the volume and the tone cleans up just like on a real amp but unlike a solid state or generic amp sim computer or external. As well the tone controls faithfully react as the amp models do. It's not a generic eq for all models like other sims. These tone shaping characteristics are unique to the amp model selected. How faithful is the sound.... Well I've played two fender deluxes in my life time. Both a very long time ago in less then ideal rooms. This sim sounds great. I was able to pull out amazing clean tones of yesteryear and today. Class A The Class A is modeled after a matchless. The Matchless amp was considered the amp of the 90's . As it so happens the original Matchless was modeled after a Vox AC30 though heavily hotrodded This pulls out all those Rolling Stones, Sheryl Crow, Beatles and pretty much anything that has a loud and proud punchy mids. US Blues Fender Blues Junior incarnate. If you like fender amps with a little bit of bark to them for...Rockabily, Chicago Blues, SRV or even Knopfler tones you can pull it out here. UK Blues This is based on the Marshall Blues Breaker amp. And just like the blues breaker the tone controls are practically useless. If you really want to pull up the full spectrum of tones from this particular model be prepared to use stomp boxes. Mini This doesn't sound as much like A DrZ to my ears as it does a traynor darkhorse. Loads of gain from having only one power and one pre tube emulation. Again it's one of those amps that draws tonal character from your playing technique. Bass While intended for running a bass into the amp more then being an amp sim. I find this very very useful in "solo" fingerstyle playing regardless of style or guitar. (Yes. I've run all my guitars through it) The enhanced bass response is similar but not quite the same as my old Traynor Bass Mate. Acoustic No it's not an acoustic simulator. Actually it has the reverse effect. It's a mic sim that reduces the brightness of the tone much like live mic'ing would do. I find this especially pleasing for my jazz box tones where I want a pristine clean sound with a little bit of warmth. Flat Does what it says. treats the signal like sending it directly into a board. Effects Section My god,,, move over every amp with built in effects this one gets it right. No it won't emulate your favorite brand name stomp boxes to a T. I'll be honest. I've never been a fan of effects aside from a little reverb when casually practicing. Hooking up a pedal board adding more cables to the floor, wasting batteries. I also don't like stacking a billion effects on top of each other. None the less I'm more inclined to add a little chorus, etc today then I've been in years past. Simply because it's close at hand and rather well done. Of special note. The choice in amp selection has a direct correlation to the response of the effects in the mix. While I won't get too far into the effects in general one thing to note. The delay effect emulates tape based delay rather then digital delay. This emulation has all the artifacts of tape based delay. So if you are wanting to recreate that David Gilmour vibe have at it, However if you are looking for more of a Duran Duran / U2 delay well... pull out a stomp box or feed it through your daw. The delay does have a tap tempo button on the left side of the top that only controls delay. The button also serves (press and hold) as a means to access the chromatic tuner. About the presets Along the top of the amp selector is located 5 presets. This allows you to store all the values (amp type, master and gain levels, eq settings and effects settings to a single preset. It's quite a handy little feature for me as I have favorite sounds that I don't want to recall all those settings when ever I come back from doing something else. But I have to ask the questions Why only five and why don't they have a pedalboard for this thing? I know it seems petty of me after all these features (and more to come) It's just a practice amp. But it would be really nice to have some type of footswitch control for switching from chords to soloing. Setting a preset is as simple as pressing and holding the corresponding number. After that a quick touch of the button will bring it back. The THR10C Editor Yamaha provides software editors for mac and pc which allows the user amongst other things to access features not available from the top of the unit. These include the ability to switch speaker cab emulations. A compressor (stomp or rack) Different types of reverb(spring reverb is only available on top while the editor allows for spring, room, hall and plate) and a noise gate. I'll be honest as much as I love recreations of classic tones I'm not the type to spend hours tweaking knobs to recreate them. While I found the 24 included presets useful and a lot of fun I really wish they were more artist song specific as found on my pandora mini. However I'll take the clarity of signal and faithfulness of amp recreation in the THR10c over the pandora anyday. (the pandora is noisy as hell) There is a resource page for user contributed presets here - http://guitarpatches.com/patches.php?unit=THR10C Though it's rather limited Even though the THR10c has a near identical clean/deluxe sound these amps and the patches are not cross compatible. You can't take a preset intended for a THR10 or THR10X and simply run it in the THR10C. Final Words I've had this for a few weeks now. While the newness has worn off, what remains is an amazing little amp. I've had more stop boxes and all-in-one floor units then one can imagine. My daws are chocked full of even more dsp's. I've tried line6 stuff and really they always come close but the aliasing and the rather apparent delay have always been off putting. This little amp sounds as organic as any tube amp I've ever owned. It's replaced my soundcard and sits atop my desktop next to the monitor. Always ready for me. As a result I've done more guitar playing in the last month then I had for the entire 6 months prior to ownership. Every guitar I've owned has spent some time going through this amp. Strat, tele, lp, you name it. I've heard all them in a "new light" and the amp has rekindled the romance of my old guitars. I wonder about the future of these great little amps now that Yamaha has acquired Line6. Unlike line6 amps and pods the yamaha thr10c doesn't try to be all things all the time. Instead it it focuses on a nice market and serves that one extremely well. The niche market being classic rockers / jazzers, bluesmen like me.
Tips & Tidbits Blog
tunesmithth posted a topic in PerformanceSince I started writing drum tutorials for this site, I've found that I keep coming up with little bits of information that I'd love to pass on in the articles. The problem has been.....finding appropriate places to include them. It finally occured to me (with John's help), that maybe I shouldn't be concerned with trying to link these bits to a central theme. They could simply be passed on as regular blog entries.....so that's what I'm gonna do. I'll be making new entries on a regular basis.

How Does One Find Rehearsal Space?
Fromundaman posted a topic in Musicians LoungeI'm not sure if this is in the right section, but my group recently had an unfortunate setback resulting in us being out of a place to practice. Now I know it's possible to rent practice space, but I'm not really sure how one goes about finding it. I've spent a bit of time looking online but am having trouble finding anything in my state (Ohio). Does anyone have any advice?

is it possible to remove images from notification emails?Asked by photoguy123 on January 13, 2016 at 04:51 PM
i'm using image picker widget for product selection and so the notification is including these images in the notification. I only want the text portion to come through. I still prefer the HTML for other fields though. I just don't want any images.
JotForm Support
I'm afraid that it is not possible to remove the images from the image picker widget from the emails.
A workaround I can suggest is to have a hidden field that copies the selected value from the image picker widget and add it to the email notification.
Then you can remove the image widget from the Compose Email window so that only the image from the image widget is not seen in the email, but the value is still there.
Here's a guide that may help: Setting Up Email Notifications

Hello, first i'd like to thank you in advance for any help you can provide.
Here is what i currently have, and then i will ask what i need.
I have a BigCommerce site (mystore.com), registered with GoDaddy, and hosting at BigCommerce. I have a wordpress.org blog setup on another domain provider and host called 1and1.com (myblog.com).
HOW can i create a subdomain called blog.mystore.com using my wordpress blog at myblog.com, but show blog.mystore.com in the address bar (ie: blog.mystore.com/new-post/, /post-2/, etc)??!!
I have tried creating a subdomain with godaddy, which redirects to myblog.com, but it doesn't work. i have tried creating a subdomain with bigcommerce and CNAME to myblog.com. and i STILL get a 404 error.
ANY help is greatly appreciated as i have been tackling this problem for a long time now. i am by no means internet/network savvy.
Thanks again, and i hope to hear from someone soon.

One thing though, at the technorati site where my site was shown, it's stated there No Authority. What does it mean??

USA: Toyota considers hybrid version of next-generation Tundra pickup - paper
Toyota is considering developing a hybrid petrol-electric version of its next-generation Tundra large pickup, a top US sales executive told the Wall Street Journal (WSJ). "We're exploring those possibilities for a full-size truck. I think the most intriguing powertrain is a full hybrid for a full-size truck," Toyota Motor Sales executive vice president Jim Press reportedly said in a telephone interview with the newspaper. "It should make a lot of sense."

Chocolate-Covered Strawberries
Recipe by Karen..
There is not much to say about this recipe. If you love chocolate and strawberries, try it. :)
Top Review by arroz241_11561377
Delicious.A couple of tips. You can melt the chocolate in a microwave @ 50% power, for a min.- 1 1/2 min. stir, then melt at 10 second intervals, stirring each time, until chocolate is melted. ( I think this is easier). Watch closely, timing will depend on the wattage of your microwave. Also, if you don't want "flat" spots on your berries, stick a toothpick in the stem end, dip in melted chocolate, let excess drip off, and then stick toothpick (with strawberrie attached) in a block of styrofoam to cool. Hope this helps.
See Discussion:100 Reviews 3 Tweaks
Ingredients Nutrition
- 2 pints strawberries, with stems if possible
- 1 1⁄2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips (or milk chocolate chips)
- 2 tablespoons corn syrup
- 6 tablespoons butter
Directions See How It's Made
- Wash strawberries and pat dry.
- Place on paper towels until they reach room temperature.
- Melt chocolate chips, corn syrup and butter in a double boiler, stirring occasionally.
- Remove from heat and dip each strawberry into chocolate, coating 2/3 of strawberry.
- Allow excess chocolate to drip off into pan.
- Place stem side down on waxed paper covered baking pan or cookie sheet.
- Refrigerate until set, about 15-20 minutes.

BOOK SALE Volunteer
These ongoing, time-limited, or one-time volunteer opportunities support BOOK SALE operations. Duties vary and include setting up (putting signage and hanging banners outside, setting up inside tables, setting up tents and tables outside when weather permits and picking up litter), sorting and inventorying donations, shelving, merchandizing, dusting shelves, assisting customers, cashiering, closing down tasks and other related duties.
The times are specific for this position. They are:
1) TUESDAYS and THURSDAYS from 10:00 - 1:00. Volunteers work as a team to sort book donations into identified genres for storage, shelving, or recycling. The duties described above may also be required.
2) FIRST SATURDAYS of the month from 11:00 - 5:00. Our greatest needs are from 11 to 1:30 and from 3:30 to 5:00 when volunteers help prepare for our monthly book sales and pack up books at the end of the day. During the actual sale (12 - 4:00), volunteers help customers find books, help pack books, carry them to customers' cars, and keep tables and shelves looking tidy. Our alphabetized fiction book shelves and our children's section often need attention.
3) On FRIDAYS before the monthly book sales (see #2 above) volunteers help set up book displays from 1:00 to 5:00. This requires enough strength to lift boxes of books from floor to tables. An eye for creating attractive displays helps a lot. There's always lots of tidying up in our children's section for someone who knows and loves children's books.
These positions require organizational, communication, and people skills. A sense for details and a team spirit are needed. Spanish fluency would be helpful but is not a requirement. You'll work under a supervisor.

From the Maine Press Herald, a reporter's request for info from readers:
Have you turned your heat on yet? It's a point of pride for a lot of Mainers to keep the heat off as long into the fall as possible, then compare and contrast their furnace turn on date with friends and neighbors. Do you remember the latest you turned your heat on in any given year? Do you do certain things to make sure you don't have to turn your heat on until November? Do you feel bad if you turn your heat on before October?
This is very amusing, because Texans have no such point of pride about their AC turn-on date. In fact, in many places AC seems to be constantly on. One of my neighbors has her AC going in March. I used to try to stave off AC season as long as possible, but this year I realized that our house doesn't ventilate well otherwise: once it gets hot and humid enough, moisture condenses on the (relatively cooler) concrete slab. Solution? Turn on the AC.
If you do say to Texans that you turned your AC on later or didn't turn it on at all, perhaps because you didn't have it, they won't congratulate you for your fortitude but look at you askance for your foolishness.
So I'm explaining this to Misty, who says: so when you said you were splitting wood, you were actually splitting wood because you used it for heat? Yeah — it's not like a rite of passage or a ceremonial photo, chopping the half-cord that makes you a man, not like Texas, where babies and kids sitting in bluebonnets are photographed, or where you get your picture taken with your first deer. I grew up splitting wood all the time, spent more time with pieces of trees than I did among whole, live trees. We cut and split and stacked wood almost all year, except for that short period in the winter when all the fallen trees were under the snow, though even then you were moving wood from the woodshed to the basement, from the basement up the stairs to the woodbox by the woodstove. It has been strange to me (I realize now) to live in places where one doorway is not littered with bark chips. Though a lot, once we get to Maine, will seem strange to me, how I have lived here, how I expected to.
(And honestly, I don't say this in a When I Was a Boy, We Ate Hardship For Breakfast sort of way–the truth is, if it wasn't inconvenient, filling the woodbox had its moments of pleasure. In our house, the staircase to the basement was tight and steep, ladder-like, so maneuvering up with an arm-load of wood was a feat of balance; an everyday feat, but still. Filling the box in three or four trips made me feel strong, and girls liked muscles.

Convention on the Regulation of Antarctic Mineral Resource Activities
The Convention on the Regulation of Antarctic Mineral Resource Activities is a treaty that is part of the Antarctic Treaty System. The convention was concluded at Wellington on 2 June 1988. The government of New Zealand is the depository of the treaty.
The convention was signed by 19 states, but no states have ratified it. Therefore, the convention has not entered into force and has been replaced by the 1998 Protocol on Environmental Protection to the Antarctic Treaty (Madrid Protocol).
