Lawyers are often the subject of a great many jokes, and none of them are very kind to the profession. However Ken Nugent Reviews, sometimes you just need one to help you with legal matters in life. Know how to find a good one and use them to your benefit with the advice in the following paragraphs.
Make sure to find out who all will be involved with helping to work on your case. What sort of experience do they have? Some may have years of experience, whereas others may be fresh out of law school. How much time is your lawyer anticipating on devoting to your case?
Make sure to find out who all will be involved with helping to work on your case. What sort of experience do they have? Some may have years of experience, whereas others may be fresh out of law school. How much time is your lawyer anticipating on devoting to your case?
You should set up a face-to-face meeting with an attorney before you hire them to help you with your case. It is nice to talk to someone that is personable and sociable, but you really need to ask questions if you want to find out whether or not your lawyer knows what they are doing.
A lawyer who specializes in a specific issue will be an advantage for you. Specialized lawyers can be more expensive but these lawyers have extensive experience with cases like yours. You should avoid lawyers who spend most of their revenue on promoting their services and rely on their good reputation and results instead.
Make sure you understand the process involved with firing your lawyer. There are many lawyers that still require you to pay a portion of your fees even if you fire them. Read over all contracts carefully, so there are no surprises later in the event that you need to seek out a new lawyer.
Before you hire a lawyer, see if you can resolve any dispute without one. Often people are able to resolve their problems without having to find a lawyer. If you are not able to solve your problem without a lawyer, then it is in your best interest to have a lawyer on your side.
Before your lawyer starts work on your case, have them draw up a fee agreement and sign it. This will let you focus on your case without being distracted by the financial implications. It will also enable you to arrange your finances so you can make the appropriate payments when needed.
Figure out what school your lawyer attended. This isn't the single factor to use in your decision, but it is data you need. A good school with difficult coursework often means that the lawyer is properly prepared to deal with a variety of cases. A good lawyer could have gone to a mediocre law school, but that should be something you know when you are making choices.
Keep a paper trail. Document all conversations and meetings with your lawyer. Take note of all questions asked, as well as their answers and record all arrangements and discussions of fees and charges. Lawyers are only human and make mistakes. Give yourself a layer of protection with excessive record keeping.
Legal issues are always serious business, regardless of the matter. They are able to go from being bad to terrible if you're not represented correctly. With these tips, you are on your way to finding strong representation so that you'll have the best chance of a good ending.

Attracting the finest talent to your city can offer a welcome boost for the entire region – especially in the highly competitive digital age. But how can you remain ahead of the curve and prove that your city is the place to be? How can you attract the brightest sparks from a range of industries and convince them to set up shop in your town?
Take a look at these innovative ideas for attracting major talent from across the globe:
It's not all about jobs
Jobs and career progression might be the key reason why most talented individuals move to a new city – but it'll never be the reason that they stay. Amenities are essential, and you must endeavor
to promote the kind of lifestyle that talented millennials seek. Focus on the things that your city does well. If your city is renowned for its museum culture, make that a focal point of your talent attraction campaign. If your city has a thriving café culture, or great nightlife, be sure to put these key points across when you're promoting the city as a great place for bright sparks to be.
Celebrate entrepreneurship and ambition
Make sure that you're celebrating, promoting and encouraging entrepreneurship at every turn. That might include investing in affordable co-working spaces for new start-ups, or offering grants for new businesses in certain fields. Perhaps you'll add a 'New Business of the Month' feature to your municipal website, giving one lucky start-up additional exposure for nothing. It's important to show that your city will be the ideal environment for a fledgling business to grow and expand.
Engage with young adults
In order to make your town a welcoming, appealing place for global talent, you need to engage with the kind of young adults you're trying to attract. Carry out surveys of talented individuals who have already chosen to move to your city, and use their responses to feed your future marketing endeavors. Try to keep in touch with former residents – you can gain important feedback on why they left and what it was that attracted them to another destination. Their thoughts and opinions on your city can be vital.
When you're considering development plans that affect this community, you should also engage them as often as possible in the planning process. Find out what they think of the plans, and what they want to see from the development. By engaging them in this important process, you're also helping instill a sense of loyalty and involvement.
Tell stories
Promoting your city is essential to attracting talent – they'll never find it if they don't know you're there! Marketing your city in the right way will help it become that hub of millennial activity.
Telling stories is key to marketing, and you can leverage existing small business owners or successful professionals in your campaign, asking them to offer advice, tips and words of wisdom to new individuals thinking of moving to your city.

Since November I had had my eye on this Scotty Cameron Newport 2 Dual Balance putter at Tam O'Shanter in Hermitage, PA. Owner John Kerins told me about the new grooves on the face of the putter, which gives it a better feel.
Yesterday I finally decided that I had to put it in my bag to replace the old school Dead Center putter that I had been using since 2015. So I purchased it.
I am looking forward to using in on the course in 2018!

03 January 2012 Great handles/terrible screws and fiddly packaging. Handles were great value and good quality. However we had to use our own screws as ones provided were awful. Tryin to open the packaging was both fiddly and very time consuming with the plastic attachment breaking off in some of the handles.

My name is Andy Iverson, and this is a place for my stuff!
I grew up in Kansas City, Missouri. I went to college at Oklahoma State and graduated in December 2016 with a degree in Management Information Systems.
Data is how we know things, and statistics is how we know we know things. Over the past few years I have come to realize that data and statistics are extremely important, and also very interesting! I spend a good amount of free time just playing with data. I record data on myself, and on games I play, and I've done a few surveys to get data from other people. You can find some of my analytical adventures on the Data page!
When I was about ten, I thought it would be cool to figure out how to make games. I needed to find a program that would let me do it, so I googled "game maker" and found Game Maker. This is how I learned to code. At first, I was using the nice drag-and-drop interface Game Maker provides, and later I started using Game Maker's built-in programming language, GML. I made a lot of small games betwen the ages of 10 and 13.
I spend a lot of free time nowadays building web apps from random ideas. You can find a few of these on the Apps page!
There are a select few video games that have been a big part of my life. Age of Empires was a big part of my childhood, and I spent a lot of time making custom maps for Age of Empires 3 and playing them online. The Civilization series is awesome, and Civ II and V in particular are my favorite games of all-time. I'm also a fan of XCOM and Pokemon. And then there's School Idol Festival, which is an anime rhythm game I found great community in.
I also played a lot of RuneScape, but we don't talk about that.
Video games are a huge waste of time. Recently, though, I've been trying to turn them into something productive, by making my personal entertainment other people's entertainment, too. You can find game-related content on the Games page!
In high school and college I did a lot of doodling in class. At some point I started doodling outside of class, too. I started with colored pencils, and then did most of my work in pen. I actually switched my major to graphic design briefly, but found that doodling for other people was too stressful for me. I still doodle for myself occasionally. You can find all my completed doodles on the Art page!
I like electronic music with hip-hop beats. Specific artists I like are Bassnectar, Flume, Sam Gellaitry, Veorra, San Holo, Purity Ring, ODESZA, Pretty Lights, and Kaytranada.
I enjoy sports - and not just because I like stats! I like basketball and golf in particular.
I like xkcd and Veritasium.
You may email me at email@example.com.

Hi Kari...
Both computers are set to not use password protection.
When I try to access the desktop PC from the laptop PC using Explorer, or try to map a network drive on the desktop to access it from the laptop, I get a dialog requesting the network name and password. What name and password are these, the ones for the network when I set up my router, or something else? I tried the name and password that I use to access my server drives over the LAN, but that didn't work.
When I try to access the laptop PC from the desktop PC using Explorer, or by mapping a network drive, there is no request for network name and password, but I get access to only items under "Library".
Must be some permissions setting on the lap[top?

Hi Kari...
I've had other more pressing issues, so haven't even tried what you suggest, and am now far enough away from it to not recall what I've tried and where it stands.
The more pressing issue is that since I last tried to do anything with regard to Homegroups, I've had a periodic (2-3 times in a 24 hour period) BlueScreen failure that I haven't been able to track down. Initially I thought it might be due to an email utility I use that checks my email account and displays header info and a few lines before I actually download the emails. One failure seemed associated with that so I turned it off from automatically checking and have just been manually launching it when I want to check email, but the BlueScreens continue.
I've tried to dis around in my log files, but at my level of expertise, don't know where to look or what to look for. The one thing I see is a lot of "error" listings that don't say anything about BlueScreen, but are associated with some kind of Homegroup services.
I'll be posting to a different Windows Seven forum with some info and asking for help in diagnosing.
In the meantime, the whole Homegroup thing is on hold. I probably would be better off undoing the things I've tried to do and going back to square one and starting over to try to get my two computers talking to one another, but will see if I can pick it up where I left off or not when I get back to it.
Thanks for your past help. You'll undoubtedly see me pick this up in the future.

If you intend to sell your house, it pays to learn about the home selling process. By doing so, you can understand exactly what it takes to enjoy a seamless home selling experience.
Ultimately, there are three steps to sell your house:
1. Prep Your Residence
Take some time to learn about your residence's strengths and weaknesses. That way, you can identify any problem areas in your house and allocate the necessary time and resources to mitigate any issues that otherwise could slow down your home sale.
In many instances, it is helpful to schedule a home appraisal. During a home appraisal, a property expert will examine your residence both inside and out, as well as evaluate your home in relation to comparable houses in your city or town. Following a home appraisal, you will receive a property valuation that can help you establish a competitive initial asking price for your house.
Also, scrub the floors, clean the kitchen countertops and perform extensive home interior cleaning. And don't forget to mow the front lawn, trim the hedges and complete various home exterior maintenance and upgrades as well.
2. List Your House
Adding your house to the real estate market can be simple, especially if you work with a top-notch real estate agent.
Typically, a real estate agent will meet with you and learn about your home selling goals. He or she then will help you get your house ready for the real estate market, thereby increasing the likelihood that your residence will generate lots of interest from potential buyers.
A real estate agent is a must-have during the home selling journey. This housing market professional is unafraid to provide you with honest, unbiased home selling recommendations as you proceed along the home selling cycle. As a result, a real estate agent can help you optimize the value of your residence, regardless of the housing market's conditions.
3. Negotiate and Accept an Offer
Oftentimes, home showings and open houses will be held to showcase your residence to prospective buyers. If buyers like what they see, it may be only a matter of time before you receive multiple offers on your residence.
If you receive a home offer, you probably will have a short amount of time to decide whether to accept, reject or counter this proposal. Consider your options closely, and if you are not satisfied with an offer, you should not hesitate to walk away from the proposal.
On the other hand, if you receive an offer that you like, you can accept it. At this point, a buyer may perform a home inspection to further assess the condition of your house. And if the inspection goes well, it may be only a few weeks before all of the necessary paperwork is finalized and your closing date arrives.
The home selling cycle may seem like a long, arduous process at first. Fortunately, if you follow the aforementioned steps, you can reap the benefits of a fast, profitable home selling experience.
There are a number of reasons you may want to sell your home quickly. Whether youre hoping to avoid making two mortgage payments, or if you are moving a long distance and have a limited time to close on your old home, it can become imperative to sell quickly.
Many homeowners in a rush to sell their home are at a loss for what they can do to increase their chances of selling quickly without substantially lowering the price.
If youre in a competitive buyers market it can be even more difficult to make a quick sale. Fortunately, there are things you can do to help expedite the selling process. In todays article, well show you how to do just that.
Read on for tips on selling your home faster so you can move on to focusing on your new home.
To give yourself the best chance of attracting buyers, youll want to focus on cleaning and staging your home.
Many sellers leave their belongings in the home and simply fill up their closet and basement while selling their home. A better approach is to rent a storage unit to keep your belongings in. This will make sure you can showcase the size of your closet and other storage areas in viewings and in your photography.
When it comes to photography, using high quality photos that show off the lighting and spaciousness of your home will attract more leads on your home. Spending money to hire a photographer for the day can save you valuable time and give you quality, marketable photos of your home.
If you need to sell quickly, the easiest way to do so is to make sure youve priced your home reasonably. Many sellers have a tendency to aim high, thinking that they will be haggled down by a buyer.
However, fewer people will reach out if your home is outside of their budget. Set your home price close to its market value and make adjustments accordingly.
Curb appeal is the measure of how welcoming and desirable your home looks upon driving by or pulling into the driveway. This can be achieved with landscaping, paving the driveway, and cleaning the houses siding.
However, you dont have to spend thousands to clean up the outside of your home. Sometimes simply mowing and edging the lawn and adding fresh mulch goes a long way toward improving curb appeal.
Another thing to consider is the best time to take outdoor photos of your home. If you have a great view or sunsets, try taking photos at different times of the day to show off all your property has to offer.
You want your home to appear livable--not lived in. Make sure family photos and other personalized items have been removed for real estate photography, open houses, and viewing.
Similarly, if you have any rooms painted colors that others may find jarring, re-paint them in a neutral, calming color. And, if any of your walls are painted a dark color, brighten them up to make the room appear larger.
This approach stands true for the driveway and garage as well. You want potential buyers to imagine how they could use the space--not how youre currently using it. Make sure your vehicles and outdoor equipment are out of sight in your photos and during showings.

New York in New York County, New York — The American Northeast (Mid-Atlantic)
Petrus Stuyvesant's Great House
Birth of a City: Nieuw Amsterdam & Old New York
Location: Whitehall Street between Pearl & State Streets
Dutch Name: Opt Waeter
Near this site stood the "Great House" of Petrus Stuyvesant (c. 1612-1672), Nieuw Nederland's last director. A colonial administrator who had lost his right leg to a Spanish cannonball in the Caribbean, Stuyvesant arrived on Manhattan in 1647 to impose order on the Dutch West India Company's diverse and outspoken colonists.
Stuyvesant encouraged the trade in enslaved Africans, and opposed giving rights to Jews, Lutherans, and Quakers. But under his capable rule, the town of Nieuw Amsterdam began to acquire the trappings of a city. Stuyvesant reluctantly surrendered the colony to an invading English fleet in 1664. He retired to his farm, or Bouwerie, in the country (today's East Village.)
Stuyvesant's mansion was built here in 1658 close to the shore. The house was located near the town's first wharf (1648), at what is now the corner of Pearl and Broad Streets. Later generations of New Yorkers added new land and pushed the waterfront out to South Street. An archeological dig on Pearl Street in 1983 unearthed Dutch artifacts, including imported pottery and glassware.
Erected 2009 by City Lore & NY 400.

Is 4GB enough for a reburbished MacBook Air?
Hello--I'm a 70-year old lady, semi-retired, looking at various places for a reburbished MacBook Air 11 (2014-2015).(I want the 11, not the 13, because of size/weight & arthritis in my hands.) I've seen several on reputable sites including Apple, but thus far they are all 4GB. My needs are basic--email and Word are my most used apps. I don't play games and only watch videos on my iPad; but I do quite a bit of browsing for research/writing and Bible study, but that's about it. Is there anything I might not be considering? anything which would be problematic in restricting myself to 4GB? (I'm not tech savvy, so please explain technical stuff as though I'm a 7-year-old, lol.) Many thanks!

There used to be a couple of very good, safe charter operators in the Pacific Northwest. Some even specialized in wreck and technical charters. Unfortunately, Mike Ferguson's Porthole Dive Charters has gone out of business. We were very sad to see them go. The Mark V was a super stable dive platform for those rough areas, like diving the Andalusia in Neah Bay.
Scott Boyd's boat, the Dive Bum has also been sold, so is no longer available for charters.
Bill Minton runs a couple of boats out of Tacoma and can tow his smaller boat almost anywhere in the state. For small groups it is hard to beat Bill's enthusiasm and knowledge. Check out his web site at http://www.northwestdivecharters.com/ .
If you're interested in some recreational wreck dives in Central Puget Sound or in the San Juan Islands, Rick Myers' Bandito Charters runs one of the best charter operations in Puget Sound.
Several of the dive shops north of Seattle run regular wreck
diving charters to several of our local wrecks using other
operators. Be sure to check in with your local dive shop to
see what opportunities they might have to visit our spectacular
Northwest Wrecks.

It's not first place. Not even second or third. But in a city that works tirelessly to eliminate the need for a car, if not altogether discouraging it, an above average ranking is an accomplishment.
Again, we're not at the top of the list, but 26th out of 92 neighborhoods puts us in the top third of walkable neighborhoods. If we scored one point higher, we would have been in the top 25%. According to walkscore.com, Foster-Powell earned 76 points, which classifies it as "very walkable." Outside of downtown, the Pearl, and Old Town, the Hollywood District (95 points) was the highest ranked neighborhood east of the Willamette, followed by Sunnyside and Hosford-Abernathy, at 91 and 90 respectively.
Based on a metric that awards points for proximity to certain amenities, FoPo's score puts it ahead of neighborhoods like Montavilla and Woodstock, and just behind Sullivan's Gulch and Irvington . For perspective, FoPo's score is 10 points higher than Portland's overall average of 66, and, amazingly, one point higher than Sellwood/Moreland. Perhaps this has more to do with the relative size of our neighborhood, and the entirety of it being situated between three major thoroughfares. For example, neighborhoods earn max points for being within .25 miles of certain amenities, while those more than a mile away earn zero. A bigger neighborhood, then, although close to more shopping and services, may be so big that parts of the neighborhood are more than the .25 miles from said amenities. Foster-Powell, although maybe not providing the amenities we all seek, does not suffer from being too big, and, conversely, we are within easy walking distance to shops and services on Foster, Powell, and 82nd.
Unfortunately, a relatively high walkability score does not necessarily lend itself to active pedestrian use. Foster Road, for example, despite having places to eat and drink, does little to draw in pedestrians, and is more conducive to driving through, rather than waking within. This speaks more about the amenities offered in the neighborhood, which may make the scoring system a bit flawed. What's telling, however, is that the city's ideals for 20-minute neighborhoods could very well be met in a neighborhood like Foster-Powell. The bones are there, as the score would indicate. We just need to make it work for us.
Use it. Promote it. Draw in more business. It's yours…and it's walkable.

This week's songs are brought to you from my personal travel memories… More specifically from ski holidays. Now, I know what you're probably thinking; it's August, stop with your wintery music.
Well you know what, for some reason my skiing songs could not be further from chilly. These are all songs that I heard for the first time when on the slopes, which you'll know if you've been skiing, are often ridiculously sunny.
I mean, Punter's gap is real guys. (The line of sun burn you get in between your goggles/sunglasses and hat when you don't realise just how hot the slopes can get; we've all been there)
The Clash – Rock The Casbah
I remember exactly where I was when I first heard this. I'm not sure how old I was, but I vividly remember everything else; I was stood next to my Dad at the bottom of the slope, waiting to get on the chairlift and this came on. He'd played me The Clash before, but mostly London Calling – my mind 100% did not put two and two together with this, and I was very surprised when he told me who it was by.
I know this song has absolutely nothing to do with mountains, or snow, or anything else to do with skiing, but it will always make me think of sliding down slopes.
Toto – Africa
I don't remember exactly where or when this was, but I know it was New Year, and I remember A LOT of people getting very into singing this song. I can't have been that old, but I know I was awake and it was midnight and we were on top of a mountain.
It's funny how some songs can instantly take you to a place or memory. Even if they're completely irrelevant to the sound of the music itself.
Are there any songs that bring back memories for you?

FROM MTV.COM: Long before Brüno and Eminem, er, met at the MTV Movie Awards on Sunday, Triumph the Insult Comic Dog and the rapper had a feud that played out in front of the MTV viewers at the 2002 Video Music Awards.
So who better than Triumph to comment on a more-or-less naked Brüno falling from the ceiling and landing on Eminem, causing the rapper to leave the Gibson Amphitheatre. "I'm a legend," Triumph told MTV News. "And I sat on Eminem's face long before Brüno ever did."

2008 Yamaha FX Cruiser High Output
The FX Cruiser High Output that has won a reputation among PWC users around the world for its well-balanced performance, comfortable ride and the look and feel of luxury now appears with more attractive new features.
2008 Yamaha FX Cruiser High Output
The 2008 Yamaha FX Cruiser High Output is powered by a 1052cc four cylinder, four-stroke Yamaha High Output MR-1™ engine, protected by sacrificial zinc anodes from harmful galvanic corrosion. An electronic switch protects the engine from unwanted water ingestion stopping it immediately if the waverunner becomes overturned.
The hull, the deck and the bulkheads of the 2008 FX Cruiser High Output is made from the revolutionary new NanoXcel™ material, material that makes this cruiser extremely light and easy to handle. The V shape hull increases the maneuverability, handling and comfort of the FX Cruiser HO.
Of course, you also get the other convenient amenities of Yamaha's cruiser models like the analog meters, the multifunction instrumentation panel, pull-up cleats, the comfortable seat, 26 gal of storage and the reboarding step.
Test drive
Riding the 2008 Yamaha FX Cruiser High Output you'll find out that is "smooth fast" and turns as sharp as you can hold on and that the light hull improves a variety of riding situations, from cornering to out-of-the-hole acceleration.
With the 2008 Yamaha FX Cruiser High Output you'll wish to have a nonstop summer holiday!
The Powerplant
- The FX Cruiser® HO is powered by a Yamaha High Output MR-1™ engine. This 1052cc four cylinder, four-stroke Yamaha marine engine delivers more power in a lighter package than any other full-size, four-stroke normally-aspirated watercraft in the industry.
- Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI): Four individually adjustable throttle bodies, throttle position sensor (TPS) and intake air pressure and air temperature sensors supply the optimum air/fuel mixture. The results are a smooth, high power output with low fuel consumption and low exhaust emissions.
- Specially Designed, One-piece Cylinder and Crankcase Assembly: Provides tremendous engine rigidity that's lighter and stiffer than two-piece designs.
- Slant Detection Switch: Electronic switch stops engine and oil pumps immediately if watercraft becomes overturned, protecting motor from unwanted water ingestion.
- High Volume Intake Box: With water repellent air filter and flame arrestors.
- Dry Sump Lubrication: Uses two engine oil pumps to deliver lubricated oil to each moving part with water-jacketed sump and oil backflow protection.
- Yamaha Engine Management System (Y.E.M.S.): An integrated, computerized management system that controls and adjusts such functions as ignition timing, fuel injection mapping, engine diagnostics and off throttle steering. The OTS function of Y.E.M.S. activates when the operator releases the throttle lever and attempts to steer the watercraft. This assists the operator in turning while the watercraft is decelerating.
- Independent Water-jacketed Exhaust Manifolds with Collector: Achieves high power while keeping noise and exhaust heat under control.
- Thermostatic and Pressure Controlled Cooling System: Water flow through the engine is controlled by a thermostat and pressure system and is maintained by a pressure control valve.
- Corrosion Protection System: Sacrificial zinc anodes protect the engine from harmful galvanic corrosion. Stainless steel fasteners (nuts, bolts, hardware) provide a long service life. Cylinders, cases and heads are all treated with a durable oxide coating to form a barrier between corrosion and expensive engine parts.
- Electronically Controlled, Variable Ignition Timing: For exact ignition advance control at all throttle positions and RPMs.
- Direct injection: For more efficient combustion.
The Jet Pump Propulsion System
- The FX Cruiser HO's 155mm hyper-flow jet pump propulsion system: The three-blade stainless steel impeller is designed to maximize water flow for high performance. The FX pump configuration provides excellent hook-up and smooth acceleration.
- Reverse: Allows the watercraft to be backed up off a trailer or out of tight spots where you cannot turn around easily.
- Quick Shift Trim System (Q.S.T.S.): Mechanically operated, this system offers instant change in the attitude of the watercraft while underway allowing for tighter turns or quicker acceleration on plane, as the rider prefers. Q.S.T.S. offers 24 degrees of total trim range.
- Stainless Steel Impeller Housing Liner: For high durability, the liner maintains accurate clearance tolerances between the impeller and the housing.
- High Flow Intake Duct and Grate: The dynamic shape of these items directs water flow into the pump for better thrust, performance and hook up.
- Pumps are Manufactured with YDC30: A combination of zinc and copper alloys, developed by Yamaha marine engineers, that offers excellent corrosion protection.
The NanoXcel Hull and Deck
- The FX Cruiser HO features the world's first hulls and decks manufactured through the use of cutting edge nanotechnology. Yamaha's new NanoXcel ultra-lightweight, high strength material reduces the weight of the hull, deck and liner by 25% and provides performance gains in acceleration, top speed and handling. Additionally, the NanoXcel material offers a shinier, gem-like finish which reduces surface tension on the water, providing a more nimble, responsive ride.
- Progressive, Stepper Draft V-Hull with Integrated Bow Spray Guard: Provides excellent maneuverability, handling and comfort.
- Sponson Design: Provides added straight-line comfort and an improved two-up and three-up riding experience.
Additional Features
- Yamaha Cruiser Seat: Yamaha's innovative Cruiser seat provides excellent comfort for the passenger and driver.
- Five-step Adjustable Tilt Steering System: Allows the rider to adjust the steering column angle from 55 degrees to 35 degrees.
- Multi-function Electronic Information Center: Provides the operator a quick read on speed, RPM, fuel level, low fuel warning, low oil pressure warning, battery voltage, overheat warning, hour meter, check engine light with self-diagnostic function and the industry's only audible warning system.
- Industry's First Remote Controlled Transmitter: With the touch of a button on Yamaha's innovative remote controlled transmitter, you can activate and deactivate the FX Cruiser High Output's digital security system and all-new Low RPM Mode from up to 30 feet away.
- Foot Chocks - The foot chocks, along with the Cruiser seat and handlebars, create a three-point contact system that reduces tension on the driver's arms and legs.
- Low RPM Mode™: Also with the touch a button on the remote transmitter, the top speed of the FX Cruiser High Output is reduced by nearly 30 percent.
- Yamaha Security System: This security system that can be activated with the touch of a button ensures that no one starts the FX Cruiser High Output without your permission.
- 26 Gallons of Total Storage: Includes a large 19.8-gallon cooler, rear storage tub and glove box.
- Glove Box with Self-draining Beverage Holders: The industry's first self-draining beverage holders.
- Extra Large Boarding Platform with Retractable Reboarding Step: Provides a stable area for reboarding.
- Dual Mirrors: Automotive style and convenience.
- Finger Throttle Lever: Provides added comfort while reducing hand fatigue.
- Yamaha's Trademarked Visibility Spout®: A waterspout from the rear of the craft that improves the watercraft's conspicuity.

Premiere Pro offers support for viewing VR video in the Monitor panels. It also detects if the clip or sequence has VR properties and automatically configures the VR viewer accordingly. You can publish VR video directly to the web from Premiere Pro to sites such as YouTube or Facebook.
The Source Monitor Settings options for VR video remain disabled when a clip that does not have VR properties is viewed. If the clip has VR properties assigned, it indicates the presence of three VR properties:
- VR Projection
- VR Layout
- VR Captured View
You would want to interpret the VR footage when:
- A VR clip has been imported but the Properties screen shows VR Projection: None.
- The VR Projection, VR Layout, and VR Captured View properties are present but have incorrect values assigned.
This information is stored with the Premiere Pro project file. When video clips have VR properties associated with them, the Source Monitor Settings menu displays the option for VR Video. Otherwise, this option is dimmed out.
To interpret VR footage, follow these steps:
VR properties are assigned to clips when VR properties get written into the clip's metadata when it was created. There are no VR properties in the metadata associated with the clips but the importer detects, based on frame dimensions, that it's a VR clip.
- If the frame size dimensions are 1:1, the clip is interpreted to be Stereoscopic over/under VR.
- If the dimensions are 2:1, the clip is interpreted as Monoscopic VR.
- If the dimensions are 4:1, the clip is interpreted as Stereoscopic side-by-side VR.
The auto detection is limited to specific frame heights of 960, 1920, 2048, 2880, 4096, 5760, 6000, and 8192.
To determine if a sequence has VR properties assigned to it, select the Sequence Settings screen from the Sequence menu when it is open in the Timeline panel. The Source and Program Monitor Settings options for VR Video remain disabled when a sequence that does not have VR properties is viewed.
To assign VR properties to a VR sequence, select Sequence Settings > VR Properties, and then do one of the following:
To create a sequence that includes the VR properties, select New Sequence Settings > VR Properties, and then specify the VR settings.
When sequences have VR properties associated with them, they are viewed in either the Source Monitor or the Program Monitor. The Monitor Settings menu shows the available options for VR Video available (not dimmed out).
The VR view available in the Source and Program Monitors displays scroll bars and hot-text controls for changing pan and tilt, along with a dial that supports continual pan of the VR view. You can also turn off the display of these controls if you want to maximize the video display area in Source and Program monitors.
Select Track Head-Mounted Display to link the VR view in the monitor to the view that is seen in a head-mounted VR display. This option gets highlighted when you install a VR headset along with supporting third-party plug-ins such as Mettle for Premiere Pro. Otherwise this option is disabled.
The VR properties on clips and sequences are automatically configured in Export Settings when the export Format is set to H264, HEVC, or QuickTime. You can view these Export Settings in the bottom of the Video options in the VR Video section. You can also change the settings here.
Use the dial at the bottom for 360-degree continuous panning, which indicates the direction of view.
To center the view, double click within the video frame. Use either of these methods to change the view interactively during playback and while the video is paused. To return to the normal monitor display, open the Monitor Settings menu and deselect the Enable option for VR Video.
To toggle between enabling and disabling your VR Video display use the button which can be docked with the monitor's playback buttons. To open the button editor, click the up arrow available the lower right corner of the monitor. Drag the Toggle VR Video Display button out of the editor and move it into the monitor panel to the desired location. This button helps toggle between the normal monitor display and VR Video display.
There could be a delay after the uploading gets completed before the video is playable in VR mode.
Learn how to work with VR media directly, including stereo media, so you can edit sequences, apply special effects and output 360-degree projects tagged properly for media players.
You can also mix and match different resolutions and stereoscopic/monoscopic layouts in the same sequence. When you mix various equirectangular VR clips into a sequence, some match the resolution and match the stereoscopic layout while some do not. Use the VR Projection effect and choose the appropriate layout and video to properly fill the frame. In addition, you may need to correct the zero angle because of improper camera placement or subject matter focus. You can correct this by choosing to rotate the video using pan, roll, and tilt controls.
You can also play this rotation back in real time, when doing this ensure that GPU acceleration is turned on.
Used by enthusiasts, Ambisonics is a full-sphere surround sound technique that allows users to cover sound sources above and below the listener in addition to the horizontal plane. Unlike other multichannel surround formats, its transmission channels do not carry speaker signals. Instead, they contain a speaker-independent representation of a sound field called B-format, which is then decoded to the listener's speaker setup. This extra step allows the producer to think in terms of source directions rather than loudspeaker positions, and offers the listener a considerable degree of flexibility as to the layout and number of speakers used for playback.
You can assemble Ambisonics audio along with 360 video to create an immersive experience. To check for proper alignment, you would need to monitor the Ambisonics audio as you change its orientation. The audio media could be contained in separate audio files, often in uncompressed WAV using PCM encoding, but they could also be contained in MP4 using AAC encoding.
- When you are importing multichannel mono media, import it as adaptive track audio.
- VR sequence presets are available under either the Audio Track Mixer or in the Audio Effects folder located under the Audio Effects panel.
- When you are exporting media, select Export Settings > H.264 > VR Ambisonics (choose any setting under Ambisonics as required)
You can use Premiere Pro to import Ambisonics media and accurately monitor it spatially using a pair of headphones.
Turn the Binauralizer's Pan control until the numeric value matches the numeric value below the VR Viewer's monitor, and then turn the effect's Tilt control to match the numeric value to the right of the VR Viewer. Now you can monitor both the 360 videos.
After you have finished monitoring Ambisonics audio, remove or disable the Binauralizer - Ambisonics effect from the Master track in the Audio Track Mixer.

I just fixed up the next iteration of the Drupal themes for the genuine Universiteit Antwerpen corporate design.
It contains mostly fixes here and there, but also more important changes like replacing all the images by PNG resulting in a lot smaller page sizes.
Also, I took the release as a chance to stick to the common Drupal theme naming scheme, with the Drupal version (6.x) actually appearing in the theme's version string.
Everyone who uses it is encouraged to update and report bugs and glitches back to the theme's page!

That is what I feel.
Finally. Good Goddess almighty, finally.
I'm pretty sure that to finally get us to this place I made a decision that worked for us but in the long run will kick us in the ass at some point.
I knew we just had to get through May..and with this being the year of whatever will be, will be..we rolled with it. I made that promise to myself before the whole no overtime and job switch deal. Either way I can say one thing. That mentality is working for us so far. Everything that has come at us has worked out in some way or another each and every time. It has renewed my faith in the universe.
When I left my job at the hospital I forgot all about my retirement. It wasn't huge, but it wasn't small either. I, in the midst of all of this financial hell, got a letter about cashing it out.
So..I did what any other broke ass adult would do when left with a choice between another frozen dinner or being able to eat some damn chicken. I cashed it out. I'm sure in 40 years something will come up when I'm trying to retire and this measly little cash out will cause me to have to work an extra year...or next year during tax time. I might even go so far as to say we'll feel it at both points.
But dammit, I wanted some fresh chicken.
At the beginning my husband fought me but as the bills were only slowly getting caught up and repair and medical bills were piling up (and let me tell you, we're not even sick people. Dental exams, wisdom tooth extraction, and a basic yearly exam are effing expensive!) I felt we didn't have a choice unless we still wanted to feel it clear into December.
All I can say, two weeks later, is that was a welcome relief. All of our bills are not only caught up but paid a month ahead, including our mortgage. We were able to do some seriously expensive car repairs without throwing up..only a little nausea. I also was able to get a new washing machine since the one we were using was at least 20 years old and wasn't draining so all of our "clean" clothes had a slight aroma that would remind one of a sewer.
In the end the only things that I would consider "blowing" the money on was replacing the camera I sold and have regretted from the second I did it and a bottle of perfume. To be fair even though I paid full price for the perfume there were so many gifts with purchase from things like M.A.C and LeMer and Cartier and a lot more..hell, I even got a double sided BBQ spatula tossed in for free, I really couldn't turn it down. I've been waiting a year for a sale to buy it. The freebies were good enough for me, who turns down a free BBQ spatula?
I don't recommend to the general public to cash out your retirement in exchange for smelling pretty but for us, it felt like the only choice we had to just be done with out predicament and still end up with savings.
Overall I am happy. I am finally back to sleeping good, on really clean sheets that smell like laundry soap. I also had some real beef hotdogs for dinner tonight. I've had my fill of chicken.
Life is good.

I've noticed a slight trend amongst some of the feminists of today, a unifying constant that ties them all together – aside from their bat-shit crazy gender vigilantism, obviously. They are all Suburbagettes!
The concept of Suburbagette is really rather simple, the word is an amalgamation of "Suburban" and "Suffragette", as I'm sure eagle-eyed readers would have noticed. Where I've used "Suburban" what could have been used is "Suburban Mom", but there's a few issues with using "Suburban Mom", as will be discussed below. But first, the definition:
- A woman, often middle class, who has no genuine life grievances yet has gravitated to Feminism (or gender vigilantism, cultural Marxism, Identity Politics, etc.) and exerts a great deal of effort to express how oppressed she is because of her sex.
"Randi used to be fine until she got involved in gender politics and became a Suburbagette, now she thinks her entire industry hates women!"
- Feminists who enjoy comfortable lives yet use Feminism as a reason (or excuse) to whinge about imagined slights they are perceived to be suffering.
"Jessica is such a Suburbagette, she runs a popular website and lives in a nice house with her husband and daughter yet complains she's not paid enough because she's a woman!"
- A whiny, pretentious Feminist who thinks the Patriarchy is out to get her when in fact she lives a good life and no one is out to get her.
"Large Primary Colour, being a typical Suburbagette, thinks all men want to use domestic violence to control her. Nobody wants to hit her. In fact, men don't want to be near her."
[Disclaimer: All characters and events depicted in the above examples are entirely fictitious. Any similarity to actual events or persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental and similarity is not to be inferred.]
The mash-up is quite easy to understand, it takes the negative stereotypes of suburban moms, the real annoying ones who drive the gas-guzzling Maibatsu Monstrosity and have the "Can I speak to a manger" hair-cut, and mixes it with the virulent gender politics borne out of the suffragette movement.
Why "Suburban" is preferred rather than "Suburban Mom" is because "Suburban Mom" implies having children or being a mother and considering feminism's rather mixed views on motherhood I've decided to leave it at "Suburban". Also, the stereotype of "Suburban Mom" encompasses several different tropes and the definition wanted for Suburbagette specifically focuses on the sense of entitlement that stereotypical middle-class Suburban Moms have, rather than their motherhood.
Obviously this term does not define all nor does its roots have a one-size-fits-all function, there are many Suburban Moms out there who aren't five yards up their own asses and there are countless female women's rights activists who tackle genuine women's issues, see Ayaan Hirsi Ali as an example.
Also, this definition is primarily geared for female feminists as they are the ones who I have noticed exhibiting this behaviour. I tend not to notice male feminists as they aren't worth the time of day.
The term Suburbagette was designed to define a sub-group of the modern day feminist movement, the sort who enjoys all the benefits of first world technological advances, who have never suffered any genuine life grievances, have no real complaints and in fact live very comfortable lives yet still complains when things are Incorrect.
These people are the sorts who use their $800 MacBooks to film a Vlog that they will send to their tens of thousands of followers complaining about all the white men in tech.
These are the people who storm into Title IX departments to accuse boys of rape because he didn't fancy her (or some other contrived reason).
These are the people who, after walking away from a divorce with the house and kids, complain that marriage is a patriarchal construct.
They are the sorts of feminist who go on National Television to complain that women don't have enough opportunities open to them.
They are the ones who lead marches around Universities complaining about references to sexual violence in their Literature classes.
They complain about body positivity issues but mock men for having tiny penises.
They are the feminists who do up their hair, apply make-up, then go on a protest complaining how men objectify women.
They are the feminists who bitch that we live in a rape culture but don't give a damn about all the rapes in the Middle East, nor do they care when the Identities of either the rapist or the victim are Incorrect.
They are Suburbagettes.
They are hypocrites.
They are middle class, self-entitled, whining cry-babies who demand everything go their way and will justify any action they use against you because they are women and because they are feminist.
They are two-faced liars who will use anything to boost their own image and ego whilst trampling down those they claim to help.
They are disgusting and are not to be tolerated.

He is generally known as "Bilal Habashi" (raa), and it is believed that he was not a pure Abyssinian as his features were not identical with those of the Habashi or Zangi. His complexion was not black but dark brown. His hair was not curly, it was thick and he had a sparse beard. His body was tall and slender with a prominent chest. His cheeks were thin and his nose was not snub.
His father Rabah, was an Arab and his mother Hamama, was an Abyssinian slave girl believed to be from Mecca but the majority opinion is that she was from a town between Yemen and Abyssinia called Sarat where a mixed race was known to be. Sarat is believed to be the birth place of Bilal (raa) although some historians claim that he was born in Mecca.

Bikes. Faster, and more exercise. Depends on what bike you ride of course Here's a shot of me full carbon baby (the white one, but the black one beside it is full carbon too) spent all my savings on it, but the feeling of riding at a cruising speed of 40-45 km/h and doing bursts of up to 55km/h on flats and up to 100 downhill is incredible, and it's hella good training as well! Still, respect to skateboards and their riders for all jumping and awesome tricks they can do -snip--snip-

The central regions of OB Associations are suitable for the study of the initial mass function since the constituent stars have not had sufficient time to migrate far from their formation site or to evolve from the main sequence. This paper reports on CCD observations of the central 7'x7' region of the OB cluster Ocl 352, locatied in the H _ region IC 1805, that is within the association Cas OB6, which is in turn part of the molecular cloud W4. Colors were determined for 160 stars in IC 1805 and this information allowed the initial mass function for the region to be determined. A weighted linear least-squares fit to this mass function in the mass range 2.5-30 M_, yields a slope of _ = -1.38 +/- 0.19. This is similar to the slope (-1.25 +/- 0.17) determined using the brighter stars identified in a larger region (50'x50') of IC 1805 by Joshi & Sagar [JRASC, 77, 40 (1983)]. It is also close to the slope of the IMF determined by other modern studies of select OB clusters. A roll off in the number of low-mass stars is observed but this is attributed to incompleteness in this study's inventory of stars of mass less than 2.5 M_ (Refer to PDF file for exact formulas).

The Toronto Blue Jays have hired a quality control coach for the 2017 season. Professional football teams have had similar job titles for several years now, but what does such a position actually entail?
Derek Shelton, the 46-year-old the Blue Jays hired for the new position, appeared on Sportsnet 590 radio on Tuesday and spent a little time explaining his duties. They appear to adhere fairly closely with the job description that the corresponding football job follows. The QC coach is an advance planner who tries to ensure quality output with quality input. That appears to involve helping players prepare for games and addresses the need for front offices to have the work of their burgeoning analytics departments implemented properly by the players and coaches.
Shelton will be the conduit for the advanced scouting, whether it comes from human scouts or the analytics department. He said he will work with the coaching staff on consuming that information and will also have a role to play in delivering it to the players.
"As you well know, the game has changed where there's a lot of information coming in from different areas, and I think part of my role will be getting that information, breaking it down, so it's more suitable for the players, so it's … very poignant to the individual player," he said in the interview.
The position replaces the assistant hitting coach; Shelton will retain some of those duties as well. Most recently, he was the Tampa Bay Rays' hitting coach. He was fired in September despite having a year left on his contract and a positive relationship with players like Evan Longoria. Shelton was also a hitting coach with the Cleveland Indians for five seasons.
A QC coach is something president Mark Shapiro and general manager Ross Atkins bring from Cleveland, although the position wasn't identified as such there. Alex Eckelman worked as the advanced scouting coordinator for four seasons before returning to the front office. He was replaced last season by Scott Atchison, the recently retired pitcher, with the title of Major League Advance Coach and Staff Assistant.
Derek Falvey, the Minnesota Twins' new executive vice-president and chief baseball officer, also came from the Cleveland organization, where he was the assistant general manager. In a conversation with David Laurila of Fangraphs at the winter meetings, they talked about the role of a QC coach.
"I'm not sure 'quality control' is a term we would use. That's still up for conversation," Falvey said. "But any time you can add someone to a staff, who can impact what you do before a game — advance preparation, how you're going to develop players, and transition players from the minors to the major leagues and back — we're going to find ways to tap into our coaches beyond just their domain expertise. We'll find ways to utilize staff members for different roles.
"It all depends on the person — his background and skill set, the qualities he presents on a staff. We've both experienced versions of that. In Cleveland, we did it with an off-the-field person. In Texas, they did it with an on-field person."
Thad Levine, the Twins new general manager, also expressed his dislike for the quality control moniker in the Fangraphs interview.
"One thing we're trying to evolve to is getting away from the quality-control concept, because it implies that we've lost control of our quality and need somebody to bring quality back in," Levine said.
"We actually want this person to be more of the fabric of the coaching staff, as opposed to somebody who sits outside, effectively judging the coaching staff and, in some regards, controlling their efforts on a day-to-day basis. We want them to be part of the fabric of the franchise."
The nomenclature of the job title is different throughout baseball. The Dodgers' Juan Castro is called the quality assurance coach. Some teams are using the extra coaching position as a defensive guru, like the Detroit Tigers' Matt Martin. The St. Louis Cardinals hired Mike Schild in November as a quality control coach for manager Mike Matheny and expect to use him partly on defence.
