Drumming Goes High Tech With Backbeater Drum Tempo Monitor

Leave a comment


Many drummers use Backbeater on stage during live performances


PALO ALTO, Calif. (PRWEB)

Makers4Good announces that the Backbeater app, the popular tool for measuring a drummer’s tempo, has a thorough update which is now available. With a new “speedometer” display, drummers can see in real time whether they are playing faster or slower than desired.

In addition to the tempo speed display, the new Backbeater app features drag and drop organizing of saved songs. This enables users to store their songs in an order that matches the band’s set list.

Joe Cain, President of Makers4Good, states, “we asked hundreds of drummers for their input on this app upgrade and their desires were clear – give them an easy to see screen and more capabilities with regard to set lists. Since many drummers use Backbeater on stage during live performances, these two features are critical.”

The smartphone app displays information from the Backbeater pickup – a small device that clamps to a drum lug. The app works with both Apple iOS and Android, and is available for free in the Apple App store and through Google Play. The Backbeater device is available at http://www.Backbeater.com or on Amazon.com.

Backbeater was created to help quiet the debate between drummers and other band members on tempo speed. With an accurate read out of the actual speed at which a drummer is playing, the drummer can lead the band with more precision. It uses an averaging window of beats that can be adjusted by the user to determine the tempo read out.

Makers4Good, manufacturers of Backbeater, donate all profits from the sales of the drum tempo monitor to Percussive Arts Society, an international organization for drummers and percussionists.

To download the new app, visit the Apple App Store or Google Play.

About Makers4Good

Makers4Good’s overriding goal is to make a difference, to give back, and to help those in need. Every product they design is focused on fulfilling a need and creating social good. Every product sold delivers all of its profits to charity.

What Costly Car Insurance Mistakes Drivers Should Avoid?

Leave a comment


News Image

“Drivers should avoid doing mistakes when negotiating their insurance policies. Any mistake done during negotiations can be very costly”, said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director of Internet Marketing Company.


LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)

Cheapquotesautoinsurance.com has launched a new blog post that presents several major car insurance mistakes that drivers should avoid.

For more info and free car insurance quotes, visit http://cheapquotesautoinsurance.com/costly-auto-insurance-mistakes/

Car insurance was created to financially protect both the driver and its vehicle. Any mistake can cost the policyholder several hundred or even thousands of dollars per year, or it can leave him without proper protection. Drivers who do not know what each policy covers can make some huge mistakes.

Drivers should avoid the following major mistakes:


  • Going to policy negotiations without having all the required documents. Getting car insurance is not simple. Drivers will not simply go to an insurance agency, sign a document, and handle some money. The procedure of getting insurance is more complex. Drivers should first call the insurance company and ask what documents they need to prepare. Then drivers should prepare the documents and handle them when asked by the car insurance agent. Also, drivers should know information about their driving history, graduated defensive courses, VIN number, and so on. The insurance agent will probably reschedule the meeting if the driver doesn’t’ have all the required documents.

  • Not demanding the insurance agent to explain the terms that are not familiar. Many policyholders are not familiar with some of the insurance terms. Where there are some unclarities, drivers should ask the insurance agents to explain them. It will be a great mistake to sign an insurance deal without fully understanding it.

  • Not obtaining quotes before the negotiation. Online quotes can help drivers compare prices from multiple insurance providers. It only takes a few minutes to compare prices and find a policy that can offer the proper coverage at an affordable price. Also, online quotes can help drivers to be mentally prepared for the negotiation meeting.

Kintone and TechSoup’s Caravan Studios Launch 2019 Social Impact Challenge

Leave a comment


https://www.prweb.com/

“Childhood hunger in the U.S. is shameful and needs to be better known and addressed. We are trying to bring focus and solutions to the cause with our 2019 Social Impact Challenge and hope many others will come along and get involved,” said CEO Dave Landa.


SAN FRANCISCO (PRWEB)

Two San Francisco-based organizations, Kintone, the teamwork platform with a visual application builder that empowers organizations to manage their data and workflows for better collaboration, and Caravan Studios, a division of TechSoup, today announced the 2019 Social Impact Challenge. Now in its second year, the purpose of the Social Impact Challenge is to advocate for using technology and teamwork to solve the issues and challenges facing local communities. This annual initiative brings together social change agents who design, build and showcase technologies that directly increase the public good at a community level.

This year, the Social Impact Challenge will focus on the UN’s Sustainable Development Goal 2 to end hunger by 2030, addressing the youth hunger crisis in the U.S. specifically. Together with Caravan Studios, Kintone will select technology-driven solutions developed by subject matter experts and voted on by the public that will best address the challenge and work toward eradicating childhood hunger.

Attendees of Kintone Connect, a series of free, half-day teamwork, technology and impact conferences held in four cities across the U.S., will learn about and vote on the innovative solution concepts. In collaboration with the winner, Kintone will then build the winning solution, present it at the San Francisco event, and finally give it back to the community to help address the youth hunger issue head-on.

According to No Kid Hungry, more than 12 million children in the United States live in “food insecure” homes and one in six children in the United States lives with hunger.

“It’s shocking that 28% of San Francisco’s youth are at chronic risk of hunger. Taking responsibility and respecting individuality are two core elements of our mission at Kintone, as is helping to create a society brimming with teamwork. Thanks to the teamwork with TechSoup’s Caravan Studios and concerned citizens, we’re humbled and inspired to work together toward addressing this shocking manifestation of societal inequality,” said Dave Landa, CEO, Kintone. “In order to meet the goal of equality, we need to first address basic human needs. Children who struggle with hunger and malnutrition often do not reach their peak potential physically or mentally, and therefore fall into a negative cycle of under-development caused by nutrition deficiency. We need to end that cycle.”

The public can vote for their favorite solution online now by clicking here or in person at one of the following Kintone Connect events:

  • Boston – September 19

  • Chicago – October 9

  • San Francisco – December 12

Tickets for Kintone Connect are available now; space for each event is limited. For more information on the Kintone Connect and to obtain tickets, please visit: http://www.kintoneconnect.com. To find out more about the 2019 Social Impact Challenge and how to get involved, please go to impact.kintone.com.

“Childhood hunger in the U.S. is shameful and needs to be better known and addressed. We are trying to bring focus and solutions to the cause with our 2019 Social Impact Challenge and hope many others will come along and get involved,” Landa added.

Dr. Aleem Manji of Langley Perio & Implants Treats Gum Disease with Minimally Invasive LANAP Laser Protocol

Leave a comment


Dr. Aleem Manji - LANAP Clinician

Dr. Aleem Manji offers LANAP Laser Treatment for Gum Disease

Gum disease treatment can be both effective and also be relatively painless thanks to the use of PerioLase MVP-7 dental laser.


LANGLEY, British Columbia (PRWEB)

Dr. Aleem Manji of Langley Perio & Implants is pleased to offer the LANAP® protocol gum disease treatment and LAPIP™ protocol for ailing dental implants in the Langley, BC area. Dr. Manji joins an elite class of general practitioners implementing the premier no cut, no new, no fear regenerative treatments that prioritize patient comfort and deliver effective results.

“As the proud owner of Langley Perio and Implants, I look forward to maintaining our practice’s strong tradition of caring for our patients, which now includes offering the minimally invasive LANAP and LAPIP protocols,” said Dr. Manji. “Gum disease treatment can be both effective and also be relatively painless thanks to the use of PerioLase MVP-7 dental laser.”

LANAP treatment uses light energy from the PerioLase MVP-7 dental laser to target the source of gum disease, without harming or removing any healthy gum tissue, decreases pocket depth, and allows the body to recover from the chronic infection without the need for scalpel or sutures. In cases of failing dental implants, the LAPIP treatment is used to treat peri-implantitis and save the implant. Patients report less pain and less post-op sensitivity and a quicker recovery when compared to traditional osseous surgery.

Gum disease is a chronic bacterial infection that rarely has any symptoms in its early stages. Despite the lack of symptoms or pain, the disease can still cause severe damage to your mouth, leading to loss of teeth, which has been tied to decreased lifespan. Additionally, several other serious illnesses like cancer, heart disease and diabetes have suggested links to gum disease.

“Many patients that are referred to our practice are surprised to learn that they have gum disease, often, good brushing and flossing habits are simply not enough,” added Dr. Manji. “In addition to preserving your gums and teeth, I am also concerned with treating your overall health, as untreated gum disease can potentially cause other illnesses to worsen.”

The LANAP protocol can be performed in as little as one treatment session and is safe to use on patients with health concerns such as diabetes, heart disease, and haemophilia, without discontinuing medication. It is the only scientifically proven laser gum disease treatment FDA cleared to regenerate the bone and tissues lost to gum disease.

The LANAP treatment is a patented procedure that requires doctors to complete intensive hands-on live patient training through the Institute for Advanced Laser Dentistry (IALD).

For information on the LANAP gum disease treatment, call Langley Perio & Implants at (604) 532-1080 for an appointment.

About Dr. Manji

Originally from Calgary, Dr. Manji completed his undergraduate training and dental degree at the University of Western Ontario in 2009. He subsequently completed his periodontal residency at Temple University in Philadelphia, where he obtained his Certificate in Periodontology and Masters Degree. His master’s thesis work on maxillary sinus pathology is published in the Journal of Implant Dentistry.

His expert background in advanced tissue regeneration and dental implant rehabilitation have brought him across Canada to lecture to numerous dental groups. He currently serves as an advisor to the Willowbrook Dental Specialists Study Club, which provides continuing education to dentists and their team members throughout the Fraser Valley.

Dr. Manji is recognized as a Board-Certified Specialist in Periodontics in Canada and the USA. He is also a proud member of:

  • Canadian Academy of Periodontology

  • American Board of Periodontology

  • Canadian Dental Association

  • Royal College of Dentists of Canada

Car Insurance Quotes Will Help Drivers Avoid Several Types of Scams

Leave a comment


News Image

“Drivers can protect themselves from car insurance scams by choosing to deal only with legit insurance companies and brokerage websites.”, said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director of Internet Marketing Company.


LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)

Compare-autoinsurance.org has launched a new blog post that presents several car insurance scams and how car insurance quotes can help to prevent them

For more info and free quotes, visit https://compare-autoinsurance.org/can-online-quotes-help-you-prevent-car-insurance-scams/

.

Owning a car is a necessity for many people. Without a vehicle, the daily routine of many persons would be less convenient and take longer to complete. In order to legally drive a vehicle, drivers need to purchase car insurance. When searching for cheaper car insurance, some drivers risk being scammed. To avoid that, it’s important to work only with reliable insurance companies.

The most common insurance scams are:


  •     Fake insurance sites that trick drivers with the promise of very cheap coverage. Fake insurance ads will lead drivers to websites that look like genuine insurance sites but are in fact fake. Less knowledgeable drivers will apply for coverage on those sites and agree to pay a monthly fee that will directly go into the fake insurance agent pocket. This scam is discovered when a police officer stops the car and its driver finds out he is not insured, or when the driver tries to file for a claim.

  •     Fake cheap coverage calls. Some drivers are being called by other people that explains to them that they are eligible for very cheap coverage because they have a clean driving record. The caller will then try to obtain sensitive personal information about the driver. It is important to remember to never give personal information to strangers. Policyholders should always do some research and check if the persons whom they are talking on the phone are genuine insurance agents.

  •     Car crash compensation phone scam. Policyholders can expect to receive phone calls from persons that pretend they are from an insurance agency. The fake agent will want to talk with the driver that was involved in a car accident several years ago. In order to lure drivers into giving them personal info, the fake agents will tell them they are entitled to a large compensation. The scammer only needs a few info in order to commit identity theft.

  •     Unethical insurance agents. Some insurance agents will try to increase the premiums of drivers in order to pocket the excess. Other insurance agents will try to get higher commissions by adding unwanted options to the driver’s policy, or by trying to convince the driver to switch the current policy to a better more expensive coverage.


Before signing any insurance policy, drivers should do some research and see what insurance agency is authorized to sell insurance policies in their areas.

To avoid scams, drivers can try to work with trusted insurance companies or brokerage websites. Brokerage websites will provide quotes from multiple trusted insurance providers.
