Ford 2012 Fiesta Walk-Around

Ford Fiesta features vibrant design and class exclusive technologies like available Hill Start Assist, which prevents the vehicle from rolling back on a slope by holding the brake pressure. And it gets up to EPA-estimated 40mpg on the highway. Fiesta has hidden details in the design, such as the acoustic laminated windshield, double layered door seals and expandable foam baffles in the pillars, which help keep it quiet. There's also Dragon's Eye Headlamps, available Intelligent Access with push button start, and integrated spotter mirrors for blind spot visibility. An Easy Fuel cap-less fuel system is spring loaded with no gas cap, so fewer evaporative emissions are released into the environment. The Ford tuned Suspension consists of MacPherson struts up front, a 22mm sway bar and a twist-beam rear suspension and it has Electric Power Assisted Steering for enhanced overall driving dynamics. AdvanceTrac with Electronic Stability Control automatically applies individual brakes and reduces engine torque whenever it detects wheel slip or lateral slides. Fiesta is powered by a Duratec 1.6L In-Line 4 cylinder engine, which produces 120 horsepower and 112 lb.-ft. of torque. It's also maintenance free with a fill for life transmission fluid that requires no dipstick and it's designed to last up to 150000 miles. Fiesta SE also has a SFE package, which stands for Super Fuel Economy. It gets EPA estimated 29mpg in the city and up to 40 mpg on the highway. A spacious interior is ...

New Home Studio Tour

Hi all, This is the end result of a recent refit I did for my home studio. What you see is the back half of my bedroom which I have partitioned off to build my studio space using acoustic office partitions. The room corners have large fibreglass insulation packages wrapped in cloth to act as bass traps with a few acoustic foam panels at the wall and ceiling reflection points as well as against the windows to reduce outside road noise. Since my last video I got rid of my Pro Tools HD2 system due to frustration with the direction of Avid and uncertainty about where they were going with the software and the HD line up. Seeing the recently released HD Native I must say it was a timely move on my part getting out of the mess. Decided to move to a more songwriter friendly setup using Logic Studio as my main DAW. Got to say I have never been happier and can't believe what a step up Logic is in functional capability compared to the now buggy dinosaur that is Pro Tools. I just wish I did this changeover sooner. Some kudos has to go to the PrismSound Orpheus which replaced my Digi 192 i/o. The Orpheus is a beast of audio clarity and matches beautifully with the X-Desk which has transformed my tracking and monitoring chain and the clarity of my mixes. For anyone who doubts the X-Desk and its "sound" and it's value for money you can take it from me it definitely is worth every cent. Hard to describe what it does to my audio chain but mixing just seems easier. Having a fully native ...

Insulation Comparison - Icynene

As a custom home builder, I'm often asked what makes the most difference when it comes to energy efficiency. Most people think it's insulation, which is partially correct. My answer - a thorough caulk/seal package and insulation. Before we insulate a home, our crews use caulk and expandable spray foam to close all gaps around windows, doors, electric boxes, framing gaps, venting pipes, etc., that could allow the transfer of air from inside to outside and vice-versa. Then we add a quality insulation such as cellulose, blown-in fiberglass (BIBS) or Icynene (spray foam). These insulations do cost more than standard fiberglass batts, but they also provide a much better thermal barrier which leads to greater efficiency. Icynene is a product that both seals and insulates in one step. We've used it in our homes and have been pleased with its performance. The only drawback is the cost - typically three times more than other insulation. Because of the cost it can be hard to convince my clients to consider Icynene. Perhaps this video will change some minds. Buddy Fisher is with Goley Insulation and his demonstration should help homeowners understand the differences between common types of insulation and the importance of a thorough caulk/seal package.
