How to Build a Recording Studio

  Studio Considerations The magic of the recording studio has often mystified even the most seasoned professionals. With all the knobs, switches and buttons on various gear and large format consoles, no wonder confusion sets in to most non-techies. Many people, especially artists, composers, producers, and engineers, will end up putting together their own studio for writing and pre-production, with some eventually deciding to take the plunge and create a full-fledged recording complex that is capable of recording major albums. This article will try to shed some light on the considerations to take into account when making a studio, be it a small home studio or a professional recording studio. Is size important? Some may say it is so but this is not always the case. The dimensions of the studio are very important. A room too large may become over-reverberant or full of unwanted echoes.

Six Options For Financing Acquisitions

  When it is time to arrange the financing for an acquisition, it is important to be creative. When seeking money to buy a company, you will notice that a number of community banks, typically big funders of certain acquisitions, are encountering difficulty due to their degraded residential (builders) loan portfolio. Creativity can make the difference between accessing capital or canceling the acquisition, especially now when credit markets are tighter. Here are some options for financing acquisitions: 1. Owner financing / seller financing - Go to the seller first. Who is better prepared to finance the business than the person or company who owned it? They know the business better than anyone and are most familiar with its risks. In the current environment, you should be able to get 40-70% of the business financing via owner financing. You must convince the seller you are a good risk, just as you would have to convince a bank. 2. Supplier or vendor financing - The target company's s...

Combat Medication-Related Weight Gain

  For people with chronic pain, medication-related weight gain poses an unfortunate catch-22. Chronic back and joint pain are two reasons doctors often prescribe medications, such as antidepressants, opioids and steroids. These conditions are often caused and perpetuated by excess weight. Taking medication that causes weight gain to relieve pain worsened by weight gain is clearly problematic. If you've been putting on pounds since you started taking medication for pain, there's a good reason to suspect medication as the cause. Opioids and antidepressants alter the brain's biochemistry, which can lead to slowed metabolism and/or increased appetite. If you were depressed, medication that reduces depression can lead to increased appetite simply because you're feeling better. Steroids affect both metabolism and the way in which your body distributes fat; one of the main areas affected by the change of fat distribution is the abdomen. Excess abdominal fat is linked not only ...
