Audio cables for our music gig

By jjohnson February 15, 2022

Getting things set up for a new music venue can be troublesome. We have ended up needing different audio cables than what we have. Because we have a few new musicians sitting in on this set, we need to hook them up with our amplifiers. Also, since this gig is important, we really want to make sure that the equipment is flawless. That is what is really driving this. We know that making a good impression means that everything must go off without a hitch.

One way to remove a potential headache is to make sure we have all the audio cables fresh and new, and in the quantity we need. Here are some great choices.

With the choice of cords now solved we have this headache out of the way. Now we can give our attention to all the other details for the upcoming gig.

Screen-free activities to engage your tween while you work

the best flashlights for kids

Finding entertaining activities becomes more complex as kids get older and their interests narrow. When the fascination with dolls, superheroes, and pretend play fade, it can be tough to find something to engage that kid who’s not really a child anymore – but not quite a full-fledged teenager, either. AKA, a tween: loosely defined as kids between the ages of 8 and 12. One major change at this phase is a newfound sense of independence. “Because of the change in the way they see themselves and each other, pre-adolescents become progressively more attuned to their peers and less identified with their families and parents,” writes Juliann Garey, a journalist, novelist and clinical assistant professor at NYU on the Child Mind Institute website. For your tween who needs to stay busy after school while you have calls or projects to complete, check out these unique picks that encourage that burgeoning sense of exploring the world on their own.

Tweens can be a challenging age group to keep busy, but an activity that sparks their sense of adventure and independence is always a good bet. This is the age that many kids are getting a small taste of freedom for the first time – walking or biking to a friend’s house, going away to overnight camp, or getting dropped off to play at the local park or recreation center. They’ll love these grown-up-ish products that aren’t babyish, but aren’t beyond their years either. From a glow-in-the-dark basketball to safety lights to a travel towel, there’s something here to keep every tween occupied and entertained while you’re finishing up the work day.

Changing our mattress to increase productivity

wake up feeling great for work

We are always looking for ways to increase productivity in the work we do and in the businesses we run. Changing our mattress can have a surprising positive impact. This is because the amount of sleep and the quality of sleep we get each night is vital to our mental focus, our endurance, and our mood. Mental focus can be fractured when we are sleeping poorly because our powers of concentration are lowered when we are tired. Endurance, our physical capacity to sustain work, is lessened when we do not get enough rest. Our mood, which influences our mind set, can plummet when we are exhausted.

The mattress we currently have may not be right for us. It might be old and no longer give adequate support. It might be the wrong support, either too soft or too hard. It may even be that our mattress is not large enough for our needs. Changing our mattress can solve these problems and allow us to get a good nights sleep. This can have a very positive increase to our levels of productivity.
