Electric Violin Review // NS Design WAV 5-String Violin
Ever wonder what an electric violin sounds like? Same here!
The NS Design WAV 5-String Electric Violin is the perfect electric instrument for beginners and seasoned pros alike. This particular model does not require any onboard power or batteries, so you can just plug in and play! It also looks freaking awesome, so that's pretty cool too.
// DISCLAIMER: Though this video is NOT sponsored, as an NS Design Artist I did receive a discount on the purchase of this instrument. In addition, this instrument was from the NS B-stock warehouse due to minor scratches and aesthetic flaws on the instrument resulting in an additional price cut. That said, I would 100% pay for this instrument full price!...

  • @dennisclason3376
    @dennisclason3376 11 дней назад

    The "treble" knob changes the equalization curve for the signal coming from the pickups. Turning the knob counterclockwise increases the roll-off at higher frequencies, and the roll-off decreases as you turn it clockwise. Since the pickup system is passive, I don't *think* you can get any boost from it. The Scheherazade (sp?) excerpt was nicely done. BTW, the fifth string sounded like a low C...if that's the case, how do a 5 string violin and viola differ? Is it solely string spacing and string length?

    Use a thin fever thermometer. Put it in a few cm only and leave it free. This is the perfect angle for inserting the nozzle. I dislike those bottles with the hard nozzle. In Germany there are 120 ml enema bags with a short hose and a rounded end cap (freka clyss). The application is much easier with hardly any risk of injury. The last branch of the intestine is on the left side. For the insertion the position on the left side is perfect. When you want to reach the higher sections, you should move to the supine position after a few minutes, then to the right side.

  • @twohassles43
    @twohassles43 19 дней назад

    Great video as always. I just want to reassure everyone about something that you mentioned. I work in a very high-volume pharmacy. Trust me when I say we don't give a second thought to medications that people pick up month after month. We also prescribe Miralax and several other medications that aren't related to the bowels but are just as personal to most people. For instance, meds for yeast infections, parasites, lice, nausea, mental health etc, etc... Even when a pharmacy hands out medication without it being discreetly packaged ahead of time, patients have to stay a certain distance away from the patient who is picking up their meds. I don't think customers waiting in line are paying one bit of attention to what the patient way ahead of them is picking up. I think most customers are standing in line wondering how long it will be until they are waited on and PRAYING that there are meds are ready to pick up without any insurance issues or high copay. I think everyone can rest easy about picking up suppositories and turning them into public information. I have worked in pharmacy for 7 years, and I wait on the same people week after week. I know the patients better than anyone, and there is no way possible that I am going to remember what most people are prescribed without their files open on the computer. I also know that people waiting to pick up meds are not standing at the pharmacy counter close enough to read the names of medications on a box or a bottle, no matter how big or small. For extra reassurance, I honestly don't think anyone cares that much what meds the person in front of them is picking up. Trust me, I know for a fact that patients waiting in line are busy rehearsing in their heads the things they need to address when they get up to the counter. Most people don't remember their insurance cards, let alone be able to make a mental note that the stranger in front of them picked up a box that had the word suppository on the box. It's also kind of hard for pharmacy techs and pharmacists to remember that they need to discreetly package certain meds for certain people. Trust me when I say we are so busy we are lucky to remember we haven't had one drink of water all day or been able to go to the restroom. It is very hard for anyone to relate to everything a pharmacy job requires. There is no walking in the door and slowly easing into our job. We are continually trying to remember several things to do at one time and NEVER EVER DOES PEOPLE NOT NEED SEVERAL MEDICATIONS DAY AFTER DAY, WEEK AFTER WEEK. Nowadays, people practically depend on the pharmacy staff for a diagnosis so they don't have to go to a doctor. Sad but true. We have way too many things on our plate at once. We so appreciate the patients who appreciate us and understand that it's really hard to remember that certain patients want little details done, like pre-packing their meds discreetly, putting a different type of lid on their meds, or writing reminder notes on their medication labels. Please keep in mind that there is NO ROOM FOR MISTAKES WHEN WORKING IN A PHARMACY. If we have to remember patients unique personal preferences it gives us less time to fill the meds that people depend on. It increases the chances of medication errors, it gives us less time to call for insurance issues or to call doctors to clarify the medication instructions that they wrote wrong. Try to remember that the medications we depend on to make us feel better, could also be FATAL if we make a mistake when going through the MULTIPLE STEPS we have to go through to fill ONE MEDICATION. It's just not as simple as pulling a bottle of pills from a shelf and slapping a label on a bottle. There is absolutely NOTHING EASY when working in a pharmacy. Especially RETAIL pharmacy. Almost every minute of a 9-12 hour shift is a challenge, and there is absolutely ZERO downtime. Trust me when I say that if it doesn't look busy at your pharmacy because there aren't long lines of patients, that doesn't mean there weren't long lines 10 min ago. Even if there isn't a line of patients, that doesn't mean there aren't hundreds of scripts waiting to be filled. Think about it... The only chance pharmacy staff has to fill 700 or more medications a day is when there aren't lines of patients waiting to be helped. That means just because it doesn't look busy doesn't mean we have time to waste. It means we can finally fill a few medications before the next person walks up to the counter. Everyone, please help us (your pharmacy staff) help you! We do what we do because we like helping people; we like fast-paced work that changes every single day. We will DO EVERYTHING WE CAN POSSIBLY CAN to get patients their meds before they run out even when it's the last minute, we help you deal with insurance, we will help you communicate with your doctor, we will counsel you about the side effects of your meds, we will vaccinate you, 99.9% of the time we will give you the correct amount of medication no matter how many meds you pick up, we will do everything we possibly can to KEEP YOU SAFE WHEN IT COMES TO THE MEDS YOU ARE PRESCRIBED. But we can't promise to remember how you want whatever meds you take packaged or remember that you are coming in to pick up your meds on any given day. As hard as we try, it's hard to answer the phone every time it rings and most patients take at least 10 min or more when they call us or come in. Sometimes it feels like people expect the pharmacy to be a fast-food restaurant. I rarely go to a fast food restaurant where there isn't a mistake with my order. If we make mistakes in the pharmacy the patient could die. 🤷🏻 If you read this long comment, THANKS SO MUCH for at least thinking about the things I mentioned. I also want to say that, for the most part, in our pharmacy, the patients are very, very appreciative of what we do for them. Most of them would understand if we weren't always able to remember to package their meds discreetly. We will try our best for special requests, but please work with us if it doesn't always happen. In the pharmacy, there are so many tasks that are top priority. Way too many things at once are the #1 priority. Thanks again, for the great service and wisdom this channel provides. I appreciate you very much!

    Omg, I have been experiencing so many poop issues lately. To the point of spending 3 hours and more feeling like something needs to come out. Have never taken laxatives in my life. Now I have been trying everything. Miralax, fiber, digestive enzymes, Colace, suppositories, castor oil, and I still don't feel relief. It's very scary and makes me get absolutely nothing done, and I'm late for work almost every day. I had no idea that so many different things could be going on when it comes to changes in bowel habits. It plays havoc on the mindset too. Thanks for the video. I am now a subscriber. Not an easy topic to make videos about. Kudos to you. Reading a few of the comments makes me a little afraid to do the enema. Especially people saying it burns horribly. I can't imagine the trauma being worse than spending hours on the toilet and having to get up feeling like my anus no longer allows poop to pass through it. Lately, my right kidney area aches so bad that I can't be comfortable even when in bed. I don't know if it's from spending so much time straining my muscles in weird positions on the toilet. Or maybe trapped gas building up, or something even worse. I am starting to sweat a lot when trying to go, and for the past couple of days, feel pretty nauseated when the sweating starts. It's pretty similar to the same feeling one gets when ya have the flu or feel sick in your stomach. I have not considered that maybe I am constipated or impacted because I have put on a rubber glove and tried to remove whatever it is that is making me feel as if something is there. But maybe I couldn't get in there far enough. I bought 2 fleets and am willing to give it a try. At this point, I will try anything because my next step is to try and explain all these crazy symptoms to one of our small-town doctors, who also terrifies me. Either that, or I am afraid I am going to be found in an emergency situation while on the toilet. I can't believe, I am to the point that I am now explaining my very personal, embarrassing problem on a public forum. It's something that I suffer in silence with otherwise. I consider myself a very calm, don't worry about much type of person. These days, I am not that. I wake up and go to bed every single day, with this on my mind. It's hard to focus on anything else. It's also hard to go to work pretending like I am happy-go-lucky, and every time I move, I am reminded that my anus is having big issues. Sorry so long, but maybe I will sleep a little better knowing I got to try a little bit to explain what is controlling my life right now. Ps. I also bought Fleet liquid glycerine suppositories. I am wondering if I should maybe try those first instead of the enema. It's really hard to know what laxative type is best. Especially when someone has never used a laxative. I am 62 yrs old young, and realizing I know nothing about laxatives, enemas, and various forms of fiber. It seems to me that one size does not fit all! Lol.. Thanks again for your educational videos on a topic that isn't so easy to talk about. Kudos to you! Well done my friend! 👏

    You have to stay flexible if you have to do this when you get older. It ain’t easy. 🙄😂 Great and funny tutorial. You got to the bottom of things…😂😂. Imho… Suppositories may sting briefly if you have swollen hemorrhoids. But usually mild and manageable. They melt quickly and take down inflammation. They can leak a bit so wear a pad if going to work. Unless the suppository was to make you have a bowel movement, most are just to take down inflammation locally so it is unlikely you will have cramping. Diet wise… Tip: try to stay away from nitrates and sulfites. They can cause a bowel flare up and anal issues. That includes most white wine.🥲 Don’t be afraid or embarrassed to talk about your tooter, butt, ass, and your back passage as my Mother would say. lol Bottoms up!

      There are definitely different types of enemas for different things. Sometimes suspension enemas are used to treat diseases like IBD. In my experience, I have only used saline enemas to deal with an impacted stool or prep for a scope procedure. Unfortunately cramping and stomach pain is just part of the process but that usually goes away once I use the bathroom!

      @@ChronicallyMusical There is no other enema that you can use to cut out or minimize the cramping? IBD alone is bad enough.

      @ChronicallyMusical Do you experience rectal burning, too? And if you have any fissures or irritated hemorrhoids, the burning is unbelievable.

      Mesalamine suspension enemas can be used to treat IBD, but otherwise I don’t know of an other enemas that are used to help treat symptoms of the disease like cramping. I would definitely seek out a gastroenterologist if you don’t have one to see if they have some treatment options for you to help with the pain 😔

      @ChronicallyMusical I don't have IBD or any colon issues. I just see your RUclips videos and feel bad for what you are going through. Constipation alone is very uncomfortable and painful at times.

    Are you having to still use foam on remicade sometimes?

    • @ChronicallyMusical
      @ChronicallyMusical Месяц назад

      Yes, sometimes! I have not entered a full blown flare since starting Remicade, but I have had some mild bleeding and increased inflammation here and there, and when that happens I do a short round of foam to get the bleeding under control before having to turn to something like oral steroids. It helps knock it out!

    I recently had my first colonoscopy (and upper endoscopy) at 28, and I was literally watching all of your colonoscopy prep videos while enduring my own prep experience. My doctor prescribed a "split prep" of drinking half the Miralax solution the evening before the procedure and the other half 5 hours before the procedure, with some Dulcolax laxatives and Gas-X in between at specific times. It WORKED. I found some flushable wipes that are alcohol-free and have both aloe and witch hazel (very soothing!). I admittedly slept on my bathroom floor that night (well... attempted to sleep). The doctor ended up finding a large pre-cancerous polyp which he removed in several pieces, and I get to be re-scoped in a year (oh joy!). Ultimately very glad I went through with the procedure and caught this early. Thank you for being so open about such an important topic. It really is so important to de-stigmatize and de-mystify the whole experience so that it's not some big scary horrible thing.

      Oof, welcome to the colonoscopy club! I'm so glad my videos helped you during the process and made it all a little less scary. I'm so glad to hear you caught the polyp early, and I hope continued screening going forward will keep everything under control! And great tip about the wipes - witch hazel is my savior!
