Denon DJ DN-SC2000

Here’s an incredibly solid DJ controller with the Denon DN-SC2000, although it gives it a bit of a different spin with a single deck (you can however control two) but it gives some cool additional features. Mostly used and highly compatible with Traktor and Virtual DJ, it’s USB powered so you don’t have to hassle with an adapter and it provides a very solid steel construction for great stability. It can control two decks at once but you’ll have to switch among them (color coded for easy remembering). It also gives us mapping, pitch control, a jog wheel for beat mash-ups, auto looping and a bunch of effects. It works extremely well with Traktor, especially if you already have an external DJ mixer. I’ve also seen some people grab two of these to pair up with their mixers for some great control of their software. Grab this if it suits your needs. MusicRadar liked it, too.
Dimensions: 6.7″ x 1.2″ x 8.6″

Inverter generator reviews

Yamaha EF-2000is v2
Price: $1,000
Power output: 1,600 watts
Run time: 5 to 11 hours
Weight: 53 pounds
CR's take: The Yamaha EF-2000is v2 is lean and compact, and produces a steady 1,600 watts of power. It also burns only 2 to 6 gallons of gas per day to do it. At 53 pounds, it's light enough to tote to a football game, the beach, or a campsite, which is exactly what recreational generators are designed for. It's obviously not what you'd try to use to power your house after a storm, but for outdoor activities, it's enough to charge phones or power speakers, and it's quiet enough that you'll actually be able to hear your companions while it's running. It's one of the only generators in our ratings to earn the best score possible for noise. GOAL ZERO YETI 150 is one of the no noise geneator  

Kohler PRO 2.8iPrice: $1,650
Power output: 2,500 watts
Run time: 8 to 18 hours
Weight: 83 pounds
CR's take: Like the best midsized stationary generators, this Kohler hits the sweet spot of being lightweight enough to take on a camping trip yet robust enough to provide real relief after an occasional outage. With 2,500 watts, you can power a space heater, a window air conditioner, or a fridge, along with a series of fans and lights. Those are all tasks that require a steady source of reliable power, and in our demanding tests, that's exactly what the Kohler delivered. It's not what you'd want if outages are routine in your area, but if you're largely using it recreationally, you'll be glad to have it if a downed tree limb knocks out your power for a few days. 

Honda EU7000isPrice: $4,000
Power output: 5,500 watts
Run time: 8 to 16 hours
Weight: 292 pounds
CR's take: This Honda exemplifies what a larger inverter generator can do. It puts out as much power as most of the conventional portable generators in our ratings but uses less gas than any of them, and runs quieter, too. You can plug appliances directly into the tool, but it's meant to be connected to a circuit breaker panel with a transfer switch or interlock device. If you live in an area prone to power outages, this model can run a well pump, water heater, and most heating systems, along with essentials like lights and fans. Like most of the inverter generators in our ratings, the Honda gets excellent marks for power delivery and quality—the two tests we perform to see how well a generator responds to big swings in demand as appliances and fixtures kick on and off.

What is White out ?

While perusing the outdoor forums we began to see the term “whiteout” pop up on the forums as being a big negative regarding camera function.

The complaints are that IR cameras were taking nearly white to completely white photos. IR red flash is currently the emerging standard flash type, with IR black flash and IR low glow running a close second. In our testing we too noticed this whiteout issue to varying degrees on many models from many manufacturers in all price ranges.

This condition seems to be more pronounced during the dawn and dusk time periods each day. During these periods ambient light conditions are transitioning from night to day and day to night. The camera uses a day/night sensor that is normally on the front face of the camera. Sometimes it is by itself, recessed in a hole, while other times it is embedded within the flash array. The sensor measures light and produces a voltage that the camera samples prior to taking a photo to help it determine if the flash module is needed.

Camera placement and ambient lighting conditions can vary greatly from property to property and region. A forest with full canopy will create darker conditions all the time than a forest edge or a field or any open setting. In winter when the leaves fall this same forest now produces a different lighting condition. The same cameras (for example: MOULTRIE M-888 ) will decide to flash at different times of the day based on these ambient lighting conditions. The IR Flash intensity also declines over time as the batteries drain.

Now, when a camera decides it needs to flash and there is already a good bit of ambient light this can lead to a white out issue where too much light creates over exposure.

Camera firmware designers were told to “fix” this issue and in many cases firmware updates were made available for certain camera models which to some degree provided a fix for the issue.

Over a period of a couple of years the whiteout issue for the most part dwindled as firmware programming perfected techniques to deal with varying light conditions and to perform light metering.

Light metering is where the camera firmware begins an exposure and constantly monitors the white balance of the photo until it meets a standard whether the flash is on or off. This tends to produce much better photos overall but does not completely eliminate all issues in this area.

We continue to see the overly dark or overly light photos on nearly all cameras but the whiteout issue seems to be a relic of the past.

7 best portable chargers

Zendure A8 QC Pro Portable Charger 26,800mAh: £72.95, Amazon


This is the most expensive charger on our list by some way, but the old adage that you get what you pay for holds true. For one, it has by far the biggest capacity on our list, with a whopping 26,800mAh (it’s especially good for charging tablets). It also automatically detects which device you’ve connected, and adjusts its output accordingly to achieve the quickest charging time. And when your device is back up to full power, the charger will turn itself off automatically. There are four USB ports, which is handy if you’re on a group outing. It weighs 482g and is compatible with Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0 (good news if you have the Sony Xperia S7, HTC 10 or many more – check your device’s specs).

1. Lumsing 15000mAh Power Bank: £27.99, Amazon


This is a versatile, powerful charger with three separate ports. The first is for USB-C connections, such as on the HTC 10 (there’s a growing trend towards this type, so this charger is future-proof to an extent). The second is for Quick Charge devices, while the third is a smart charge port, which automatically adjusts to the optimum output depending on your device. Its 15,000mAh capacity will give multiple charges of pretty much every smartphone, and a full charge at least of tablets such as the 12.9in iPad Pro – or you can charge three devices at once. The sleek design, with LED battery indicators on the side, is slightly longer and thicker than an iPhone 7, with a weight of 356g, so it’s best to be carried in a backpack or large coat pocket.

2. RAVPower 20,100mAh Portable Charger: £34.99, Amazon


If you’re after a charger with a high capacity but don’t want to pay for all the extra features of something like the Zendure above, RAVPower offers a good alternative. The 20,100mAh capacity is enough to charge a smartphone many times over. And if your smartphone is compatible with Quick Charge 3.0 then there are few faster chargers out there. It weighs 275g, so for the power it provides, it’s not too hefty. It’s USB-C compatible, too.

3. Anker PowerCore 5000 Portable Charger: £11.99, Amazon


Anker is one of the biggest, most reliable portable charger ( for example: GOAL ZERO SHERPA 50 SOLAR RECHARGING KIT ) brands in America, and this product is among its most popular. The tiny, cylindrical design measures 10cm x 3cm, so it’ll easily fit into a trouser pocket, and with a weight of 136g, it’s imperceptible when flung into a backpack. The capacity, 5000mAh, is impressive for its size and will charge a Samsung Galaxy S8 fully, with a bit to spare. It doesn’t support Qualcomm Quick Charge, but the 2A output still offers a speedy charge. Handy LEDs on the side show how much juice the charger’s got left. Available in red or black.

4. CHJGD Ultra-Compact 10000mAh Power Bank: £23.99, Amazon


Admittedly, most power banks aren’t particularly exciting to look at, but this one goes some way to change it. The designs range from a Ferrari theme to an eye-catching mosaic, but the charger itself doesn’t skimp on build quality as a result. It claims to be the world’s smallest charger with a 10,000mAh capacity and it’s certainly a contender, with dimensions of 93 x 63 x 19mm, and a weight of just 188g. It automatically adapts its output to suit your device, with battery-indicating LEDs on the bottom.

5. Iceworks 3000mAh Portable Charger: £12.95, Amazon


This charger is as slim and as wide as an iPhone, but not as long, and only weighs 41g, meaning it is genuinely pocket friendly. It’s an especially good charger 
for iPhones, as it has an in-built cable and comes, rather generously for the price, with two lightning adapters, so you can plug the charger straight into your phone. (The adapter slots into the top of the charger, too, so it shouldn’t be lost so easily). Without the adapter, it’s USB compatible. It will definitely give a full charge to smartphones sized around 2,000mAh.

6. EasyAcc 15000mAh Power Bank: £19.95, Amazon


It’s one of the heftier chargers on our list, weighing 335g, but it packs a punch, with 15,000mAh capacity (enough to comfortably charge an iPad Pro) and 4.8A output, meaning it can competently charge three smartphones at once, or just one at great speed. What’s more, each of the three ports are smart, adjusting to whichever device you’ve connected, and they’ll automatically switch off when not in use, saving precious power.

7. Poweradd Slim2 5000mAh Portable Charger: £7.99, Amazon


This is another tiny, great value charger that will give a full charge to most smartphones. It only weighs 181g and is just under 10cm tall but manages to pack in a 5,000mAh capacity, with four LED battery indicators on the top. It has an auto-detect output, with speedy charging up to 2.1A. At less than a tenner, we think this one is a bargain. Available in a range of colours.

The 12 Steps To Recovery From Sex Addiction

The first step may be the sex addiction therapy recognizing they have no power over their sex habit which their lifestyles have gotten uncontrollable. This task essentially defines a gender addition, a situation in which a person no longer could control their sexual behavior despite it causing them troubles. This could seem facetious, but when a sex addict may manage their behavior, they would not be an addict. Admitting powerlessness also starts the door to acquiring outside help. A person with a damaged knee doesn't attempt to fix it on their own, they call a health care provider since they don't possess the abilities to heal themselves. It is no distinct with a porn addiction help.

Next step is knowing there's a "higher power" that can help the fan with their addiction. This along with the next thing maybe two of the least recognized, as "higher-power" typically describes God. Although several going right through the 12-step program flip for the Religious religion, something can assist because of the higher power. A person can check out the Sun, a popular object, anything they're able to mentally associate using a strength above themselves. Some neurologists have explained the mental faculties is hardwired towards faith, and as a result of this, it could be employed as a powerful resource in affecting behavior.

A higher power plays the role of the neutral however supporting third part within the sex addiction treatment NY existence. It is not the lovers themselves, or could it be their specialist, or is it someone you care about the addict might have offended or a person who may decide them.

The next action is giving themselves to that higher power because they realize it. Several sex addicts begin examining the Bible and attending religious solutions of these trust. Others will need up to an alternative religious wording as their comprehend of their higher-power. The guide or the faith or belief is not essential below, what is essential is that the reliability on home gets turned over to a reliability on a higher-power. Many religions have set guidelines on trauma therapy, along with different aspects of life, and make to get a readymade rule of conduct an individual can stick to, at least until their lives are under their control once more.

The fourth step is where the sex addiction therapy NYC extends to the "nitty gritty" of their difficulty and involves discover what it looks like on the outside by finishing a "moral stock" of themselves. This catalog documents their life and how when their intimate behaviors, failings, as well as other typical actions began within an attempt to determine the big picture and also have an exact knowledge of what it is. Usually, a deadline is put on this, as numerous addicts are inclined to get hung up on it, sometimes because they locate it difficult to examine themselves in this manner or feel the need to become too thorough.

The fifth action entails getting that catalog and featuring it to somebody else, either a spouse, sponsor, clergy or reliable acquaintance, and sometimes even another trauma therapists NYC more along inside their treatment. This really is done for a number of reasons. In case a sex fan may share this, it means they are more comfortable with it to a diploma and you will be ready to open more since discovering the behavior inventory may possibly not be enough to let the pornography addiction helpundoubtedly see their difficulty or acknowledge patterns inside their behavior. In regards towards the familiar, an addict recognizes what they want in the place of what in fact is. It's the same as when an athlete requires a trainer to test their stance or swing or perspective due to their activity. And so the sex fan requires another couple of eyes on their moral inventory to hook points and gain feedback from the different viewpoint.

Actions six and eight of the initial Alcoholics Anonymous model are requesting the higher electricity or God to eliminate the fan is problems and to forgive them. Additional, more secular-minded variations explain these methods as similar transition periods. The sex addiction treatment NY moves from determining the issue to knowing that they, themselves, are now past that phase and certainly will currently expend energy enacting change. The fan is trained to view the errors have now been manufactured Can't be unmade, and wishing to adjust the past is really a waste of power. Whilst it's not really an "obvious stone," it's a switch of the target onto the present, which is often afflicted with the sex addict.

Move ten, while in the beginning might appear such as a look-back, is in fact for the addict to gather a list of people their gender addiction has damaged. This can be the family they've ignored, spouses robbed on, as well as in severe cases, patients in their sexual abuse. This may also be broken down into smaller portions, determining the kinds of interactions injured from the sex addiction. In a case of deceased loved ones or people the addict can't have the connection with, this step assists as an emotional discharge by further making the addict see the scope of the harm their behavior has triggered.

The ninth step is definitely an expansion of the eighth and involves making amends with the people revealed for the reason that move, when feasible. Maybe it's anything as simple being a mental apology, and may not be something which can be done in an instant, a day, and sometimes even weeks. This task is unique towards the persons engaged, rather than completely possible in most cases.

Step 10 is continuous the number from move five and recognizing whenever a mistake continues to be built. This could broaden beyond sexual behavior and can include any type of non-desired actions or sensations. Bad feelings are what led the sex addiction therapy to compulsively seek the numbing behavior to begin with. And having the ability to recognize those trouble spots and handle them in a way that doesn't feed a fresh dependency cycle is critical. Gender addiction usually includes other designs of addiction, or could spin-off into those other styles in the event the root cause is not being checked.

Prayer and meditation are Step 11 in the system. Several contact prayer and relaxation one along with the same, but whatever route the sex addiction treatment NYC prefers, they ought to put aside time daily for peaceful reflection. A daily pause is used as an anchor to retain the difficulties of the fans outside world from becoming frustrating. This task lets the sex addiction NYC tell themselves of this improvement along with the resources they've to combat their compulsions.

The final action is working with other trauma psychologists or transferring on several of the knowledge the fan has accumulated. The selfless side of the is assured a pool of knowledgeable educators well-versed within the subject material who is able to perpetuate the program. The benefit for the fan performing the coaching could be the just like to educator; the main one providing the information in turn finds more in what they've come to know. Needing to articulate to another person what you have learned makes someone think of rewards in ways they don't before, and leads to better understanding.

7 Ways to Keep Your Focus on Execution After the Idea

Every startup begins with an idea, but from that point forward, it’s all about execution. Founders soon learn that customers only spend real money for solutions rather than ideas. Investors have also learned not to invest in ideas but only in entrepreneurs and teams who can deliver solutions. Success requires moving your passion quickly from the idea to the business implementation.
A good execution requires a plan and the right people, combined to create operational excellence and exceptional customer value. Companies that do this best become market leaders. Google, for example, was not the first Internet search provider (think Yahoo!, AltaVista, InfoSeek and others), but according to Investopedia, Google was the first to really monetize search.

As a result, Google has become a verb, and the company is a tech giant with record growth rates and a revenue of $74.5 billion in 2015. But Google is not unique. Many other companies have followed a similar set of execution principles which I believe are required for business success, no matter how great the idea:
