I am a light sleeper and rather restless, too, or at least I was until I started sleeping on an earthed sheet which I have had for about 3 weeks, now. I sleep quite well at night, now, hardly move at all. I also injured my sacrum and had difficulty walking, after a fall, about a year ago. Lots of acupuncture and some chiro saw me slowly improving, but always had discomfort sitting and sleeping. Light house work would upset my sacrum and I would have to stop. I am the best I have been for a long time, since I have started sleeping grounded. I highly recommend giving this a go, you will wish you had done it sooner!!

I visited Athens in Greece recently. It was a full moon and I was taking a lovely scenic walk around the Acropolis when I fell on my coccyx and went sliding down five steps on my behind. I was actually quite embarrassed by this incident. At the time I did not realise that I had fallen on marble, as most of the Acropolis is made of this. It was only day two of my 6 week trip. My coccyx was in a lot of pain. That night at the hotel, I took out my overseas adapter and slept on my earthing mat (the one that I use on my computer). I had taken it with me to help me recover from jet-lag, which it did. Well I was stunned. The next morning my coccyx was feeling great and I was able to continue to walk through many marble ruins over the course of our Greek Odyssey. I highly recommend that you travel with your earthing mat. My coccyx is now fine, thanks to early intervention.

I just got my earthing mat and I am SO HAPPY WITH IT! This is my first one, but I had done the research before hand so I knew it would be good. The thing is I didn't know it would be THIS GOOD! SERIOUSLY! I had put off buying a mat for a while because I figured standing on the Earth would suffice. Sure standing on the Earth is GREAT, but I needed an earthing mat for indoors. By using this earthing mat at my PC I have transformed a detrimental task of using a PC, being exposed to EMF, etc. To a beneficial task! I feel connected to the Earth which is connected to all of humanity, every animal, plant and the universe itself! I feel amazing. Thanks Earth Oz, and thanks EARTH.

Now we have a series. At the very least, the Rangers showed up for their first World Series appearance. That was, in fact, the first World Series win ever in the state of Texas.
Colby Lewis was a bad man, going deep when the Rangers needed it most and getting six strike outs. He gave up a few fly balls, which he's prone to do, and a couple left the park. Fortunately, no one was on for either. Those were examples of why many people wanted him to start game two. Lewis is a fly ball pitcher and those would not have left the park in San Francisco most likely. He'll be in San Fran for a game seven if it gets that far, though.
The other bad, bad men were rookies. Neftali Feliz came in and dominated, throwing the stuff we all know he's got for his first career post season save with two strikeouts. Mitch Moreland, meanwhile, was huge. He's had himself a very underrated rookie season (especially when you look at the suggestions he's been a big unlucky on balls in play) and followed it up with a meaningful post season. With two outs and two on, he stayed alive against Jonathan Sanchez who no one but he and Benige Molina seemed to realize couldn't find the strike zone. He sent the ninth pitch deep in to the seats to give the Rangers three runs on one swing. In the end, that home run was the difference. His ability to stay alive and then take it deep -- for the first time in his career against a left hander -- may well go down as the biggest hit in the history of the franchise. In fact, by WPA, it's only one percentage point behind Juan Gonzalez for the No. 2 spot in the playoffs for the Rangers (I'll update that list in a couple days).
There are still concerns. Michael Young, with two double plays, and Vladimir Guerrero, with a mind-boggling caught stealing, continue to frustrate around Josh Hamilton (who checked in with his first home run). I'm wondering why Ron Washington left Jeff Francouer in to face a righty with a man on, instead of going to David Murphy, and then left him on in a two run game in the ninth, rather than putting in Julio Borbon.
This game also favored the Rangers more than any of the first four, most likely, and it was a nail-biter after a couple of blowouts. I should be able to tell myself that's a small sample size and a win is a win, but while I'm happy the Rangers are now a part of the World Series, I'm still scared over what I've seen through the first three games.
Oh well. It's a series now. The Giants are forced to face Cliff Lee one more time, and it's unlikely for him to suck twice. If the offense can just be a little less un-clutch and Tommy Hunter can at least pitch to his mean, the Rangers are probably looking at that Lee start as a shot to put them in firm control of the World Series. That's something that felt a little impossible before tonight, even if I knew it wasn't.
This stuff is rough, huh? Another big game tomorrow. Channel some Colby Lewis please, Mr. Hunter.

Caution Tight Hole: Limited Bubble Version Review – A Virgin Themed Male Masturbator by Toys Heart
- Product: Caution Tight Hole: Limited Bubble Version
- Maker: Toys Heart
- Measurements: Weight: 80 Grams / Dimensions: 95 x 36 mm
- Link: Shop (affiliate link)
The Caution Tight Hole: Limited Bubble Version by Toys Heart is a small size virgin themed onahole. It's a limited edition version of the original Caution Tight Hole – here – which is quite popular partly because it's pretty inexpensive, and partly because it delivers tight dick destroying stimulation.
This Limited Bubble Version, as the name suggests, is a bubbly version that is meant to give it a softer feel. The colour of this limited edition release is also different – It has a deep pink colour, while the original was clear.
Because it's a limited version, it is only available at four stores that have the rights to sell it in Japan, and only one worldwide online store which is otonaJP.
So let's see if the bubble material on this new one can add to the original experience.
The Box / Packaging
The box of the Caution Tight Hole: Limited Bubble Version is pretty much the same as the original except that it has a different colour, features the logos of the four stores in Japan that supply it, and of course, it has pictures of the onahole itself.
The box is fairly small (about 15cm in height) and inside, the onahole comes in a plastic bag and accompanied by a small pack of lubricant.
The Onahole
This is a super small onahole, which could be a positive if you want a toy that is easily transportable and/or easy to hideaway. The negative side of the small size is that those with are well endowed may get a little frustrated while using it – the toy is stretchy and can take a fair amount of size, but not a huge amount.
The bubbly material gives the toy a softer quality than the original which was known for being a hard and a little unforgiving for some people. The inner tunnel if the toy is a little more straight than the original's which curved quite a bit.
The onahole is not much to look at on the outside with a cube shape design with a smooth exterior. The entrance to the tunnel is also very basic and no attempt has been made by Toys Heart to make this thing very visually appealing. The flat bottom and shape of the toy allow it to be stood upright quite easily. I guess if you want to proudly display the onahole somewhere for any visitors to see, then this feature might be useful, otherwise, I'm not really sure why this is even a thing.
The Feel
The Caution Tight Hole: Limited Bubble Version does indeed offer a softer stimulation than the original Caution Tight Hole. It is still very tight and feels great, but the spongey bubble material is more forgiving and gives way more easily which somewhat solves the problem of overstimulation that some people experienced with the original.
For comparison, if the original had a stimulation of 9/10, this bubble version is about a 7/10.
The Caution Tight Hole Limited Bubble Version is a little pricey due to its limited availability – but as an actual small size handheld onahole, it is pretty much perfect. The sensations are nice and the build quality is also good so it should last a while if you look after it.
If you're a fan of the previous one, or if you thought that it was a little too strong, this version might be good for you.
The Caution Tight Hole: Limited Bubble Version Onahole is available here
- + Great stimulation
- + Softer, gentler experience than the original
- – It's a little pricey due to its limited availability
- – Not well suited for those who are very well endowed
Rating 8/10

News and Information
Kenya's political crisis deepens
December 8, 2005
Kenyan President Mwai Kibaki
The referendum result was seen as a protest vote against the president
Kenyan President Mwai Kibaki's newly appointed government is unravelling, plunging his leadership deep in crisis.
Three prospective ministers and more than a dozen deputies have refused to accept posts, including two key allies.
Mr Kibaki dismissed his entire team two weeks ago after he lost a referendum on a new constitution - a vote seen as a protest against him.
Those snubbing Mr Kibaki say he is failing to consult coalition partners and ignoring the people's wishes.
The new cabinet he announced on Wednesday evening was said to be made up mostly of old friends and colleagues.
Mr Kibaki rejected all the leading politicians who stood against him and backed the successful "no" campaign in the referendum.
Also missing is former key presidential aide Chris Murungaru, already demoted in the wake of corruption allegations.
But the BBC's Adam Mynott in Nairobi says that no sooner had Mr Kibaki named his new government, than it started to fray around the edges.
The president should have consulted all parties in the coalition before choosing his ministers
Charity Ngilu
Send us your comments
An hour after the president read out the long list of ministers in an address on national television, almost a dozen politicians named as assistant ministers announced that they were refusing to accept their posts.
They were soon followed by Orwa Ojode, who turned down the post of minister for environment and natural resources.
Later, Musikari Kombo turned down his reappointment as local government minister - despite having campaigned with Mr Kibaki for the referendum.
Mr Kombo, the leader of Ford-Kenya, which was one of four parties in the Kenyan coalition that won elections in 2002, announced that his party would not take part in the new government.
Then leading cabinet member Charity Ngilu turned down the health ministry, saying there had been a lack of consultation.
"The president should have consulted all parties in the coalition before choosing his ministers," she told reporters.
In total 16 minister of deputies have rejected their appointments.
Speaking on Kenyan TV station KTN, Mr Ojode complained that candidates from his western Kenya region, Ndiwa, had been denied all of the best departments.
"You find that in my community, we have been sidelined completely apart from this departmental ministry which has been offered to me," he said.
"What happened to the Ministry of Planning? What happened to Ministry of Roads? Why do we have to get the departmental ministry. What for? For the community? How will I help the community? How will I assist my constituents?"
Soita Shitanda, one of the politicians who turned down a junior ministerial post, said Mr Kibaki had failed to consult his party before offering him the job.
General election calls
Our correspondent says Kenya is entering very uncertain political times, with opposition parties saying Mr Kibaki should now call an early general election.
The draft constitution was rejected by about 57% of voters in the country's first referendum on 21 November.
The main bone of contention in that vote centred on the role of the president himself.
His opponents, including several members of the old cabinet, had wanted the new draft constitution to include a new powerful prime ministerial post, but this was opposed by supporters of Mr Kibaki.
Elections are due in 2007, but speculation is growing that these could be brought forward if Mr Kibaki fails to start negotiations quickly to shore up the support of his former allies.

A prolonged low-interest-rate environment may make economic downturns more severe and weaken the resilience of the financial sector, Jon Cunliffe, deputy governor for financial stability at the Bank of England, said Oct. 14.
"Low for long makes demand management of the economy more difficult in downturns, reducing the space for monetary policy easing with conventional tools," Cunliffe said at a speech in London. Such an environment could also lead to greater risk-taking and less resilience in the financial sector due to "a slow or an unwilling adjustment" to the lower returns implied by a prolonged period of low rates, he added.
The greater risk of severe economic downturns in a low-for-long interest rate environment may mean that banks' countercyclical capital buffers should be "made more powerful," Cunliffe said. Banks must maintain their countercyclical capital during times of excessive credit growth and may reduce the buffer during a downturn to reduce pressure on cutting back on lending and to avoid a credit crunch.
Cunliffe made the remarks after Dave Ramsden, BoE deputy governor for markets and banking, told The Telegraph in an interview that the "entrenched uncertainty" stemming from Brexit that is weighing on U.K. economic growth may hinder the central bank from further easing monetary policy.

Inexpensive places to eat around Corvallis
October 16, 2018
Life is expensive. It's especially expensive to be a college student, but it shouldn't have to cost a small fortune to go out to eat with friends. So where do you go when you need to eat, but you don't want to break the bank? Where are some fun, inexpensive places to eat around Corvallis? We compiled a list of places to enjoy food for less.
1. "Bombs Away Café" describes themselves as a funky taqueria. The atmosphere is fun, the tacos are cheap and if you're over 21, they have a different drink special for each day of the week, with pints of beer as cheap as $2.50 on Tuesday's.
2. "American Dream Pizza" is eclectic and delicious. The walls are covered in creative art, their pizza toppings are diverse and their crusts are thick. "Dream" offers some great deals, especially their lunch special. A hungry student can get a slice of one-topping pizza and a one-topping salad for $6.50 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. for lunch.
*bonus: they also have gluten free crusts available.
3. "Campus Downward Dog" has a classic small town college bar vibe. This is the place to sit outside and share some food and drinks with friends. They serve breakfast until 2 p.m. and have a wide variety of pub style food on the menu. The most expensive item is "The Double Trouble Burger" at a whopping $14.
4. "Baguette" is a Vietnamese restaurant located on third street. They have banh mi (sandwiches), bao (pork buns) and salad rolls. They have a relaxed vibe, vegan options and sandwiches that will keep you coming back for more.
5. "Café Yumm!" has quick, vegetarian food that's also available for take-out. It has healthy food options, ranging from bowls and wraps, to sandwiches, salads and their deliciously famous "Yumm sauce." This is the place to go for an organic, cheap meal, close to campus.
6. "Local Boyz Hawaiian Café" is another Corvallis classic that you can't go without trying at least once. The food is inspired by a Polynesian/Hawaiian palate and the service is fast. What makes this place great (besides the fantastic food) is that you get to pick from three sizes and you can choose what food you want in the combo plates. The most expensive meal is still only $12.75, making it an excellent price for how much you get.

If McCain with Palin as running mate gets to be the new president I can tell you no one will take you seriously anymore. Lots of time, you'll find the reply isn't any. Even though most teachers have already mastered the art of setting expectations early within the yr, many of us overlook that college students want constant, pleasant reminders for how you can do each and every one of the number of tasks that you have set out for them.
This is whyfreshly-created paintings should dry in a room with enough light (not direct sun), at round room temperature and low air humidity. I doubt you might be registered Republican and supported John SIDNEY McCain "until" he picked Sarah LOUISE Palin.

Kit Kemp for Chelsea Textiles
The collection, Kit Kemp for Chelsea Textiles, is inspired by Kit's love of the whimsical and lyrical, and her love of animals, both real and imaginary. Featuring a series of characters and patterns that have a primitive, almost folkloric feel, the collection shows a series of narratives that playfully unfold on the fabric, from a star gazing dog and a sailor's farewell to mythical creatures and a modern take on a Suzani.
Jenny Simpson, Design Director at Chelsea Textiles has worked closely with Kit to perfect the designs and transform them into intricate, imaginative embroidered fabrics. She says, "The art of embroidery is the essence of Chelsea Textiles and this collection has beautifully brought the medium to life. Each fabric is filled with a sense of surprise and charm which perfectly embodies Kit's bold and idiosyncratic approach to interiors."
Kit Kemp adds, "I've always cherished embroidery, as an art form as well as a constant source of inspiration for the fabrics I use to decorate the rooms in my hotels. There is something timeless and precious about embroidery, it demands to be treasured, and in fact, one of my earliest memories is of rooting through drawers in large chests of stored materials that my mother had hoarded away. To sit on the floor surrounded by beautiful fabrics is where I always love to be." The collection is available through Chelsea Textiles' showrooms and retail partners.
To purchase the collection go to Chelsea Textiles.

A study released Monday contributes to the growing pile of evidence that suggests newer types of birth control pills carry increased risks of blood clotting and may not be safe for certain groups of women.
The study looked at 330,000 Israeli women and found a strong likelihood that those who used birth control pills with the hormone drospirenone, which is used in brand-names like Yaz and Yasmin, were more likely than other Pill users to develop blood clots called venous thromboembolisms.
Although the numbers are relatively small, only six per 10,000 users, the risks were 43 percent higher with drospirenone-containing pills, compared with older, second- and third-generation pills, which becomes more than 10 per 10,000 or 0.1%, which is relatively high.
Dr. Susan Solymoss of McGill University in Montreal, who wrote an editorial published with the study in the Canadian Medical Association Journal, reminded readers that:
"It's important to remember that all oral contraceptives are associated
with a risk of blood clots."
She went on to clarify that women don't really need to panic or quit their contraceptives, simply have a discussion with their doctor and think into their circumstances, lifestyle and medical and family history.
Dr. Naomi Gronich, who led the new study, agreed with Solymoss.She said that age is another factor. Gronich, of the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology in Haifa told Reuters Health that blood clot risk gradually increased after the age of 25. Obviously not taking birth control pills is an option for any woman. However, as Solymoss pointed out, other contraceptives may not be as effective at preventing pregnancy.
"And pregnancy is a bigger risk for
blood clots."
Its always good to put things into perspective with some hard numbers as statistics can be misleading. For every 10,000 women who become pregnant in a year, about 20 will develop venous blood clots. That compares with the rate of six women per 10,000 among Pill users overall and three in 10,000 women who are not on the pill.
Bayer HealthCare, the manufacturer of Yaz, Yasmin, Beyaz and Safyral, said it was still reviewing the new study from Israel and could not comment on it. Bayer also looked to its own post-marketing studies that have failed to turn up a heightened clot risk with drospirenone contraceptives versus older ones. Drospirenone is a progestin, a synthetic version of the hormone progesterone.
The different "generations" of the Pill have slightly varying types of progestin. Second-generation pills contain the progestins levonorgestrel or norgestrel. These tended to cause side effects like acne and body-hair growth more frequently. With this in mind, the third-generation of progestins were developed in the 1980s to lower the risks of those problems. Some studies found that third-generation pills carried a higher blood clot risk than their predecessors, suggesting that risk is influenced by the progestins in the formulation.
Yaz was approved in 2006 and quickly became the top-selling birth control pill in the U.S. though its sales have dropped off in the past couple years (partly because of generic competitors). Worldwide, Yaz and its sister pills had sales of about $1.07 billion in the first nine months of this year, according to company financial statements. The "Yaz" products have been promoted as causing less weight gain and swelling than older-generation pills. Yaz and Beyaz can also be used to manage moderate acne or so-called premenstrual dysphoric disorder, a severe form of PMS that causes physical symptoms and serious mood swings before a woman's period.
For women who have already been using Yaz or related pills without noticeable problems, there may be no reason to switch, according to both Solymoss and Gronich. In this study, Gronich pointed out, blood clot risk was greatest in the first few months of use :
"A woman already on drospirenone for four months probably shouldn't be more worried than if she (were on) another second- or third-generation contraceptive."

319 219 years ago today, the bourgeoisie stormed the Bastille and liberated its seven prisoners — and, while they were at it, essentially formed modern France. No one's requiring you to perform any feats of prison breaking (especially considering that, for the powers that be, it's been a bad week on that front), but you can raise a glass to liberté, egalité, and fraternité nonetheless. Read on for our picks of the best fêtes in town.
• Every day is a Bastille Day celebration with chef Didier Durand, but today he makes it more literal, running a four-course celebration of la belle France at Cyrano's Bistrot for $39.95.
• Kick back and watch the Tour de France and nosh on a French-style hot dog (er, make that a chien chaud) at Brasserie Jo, while listening to the tres cool music of Alfonso Ponticelli and Swing Gitan.
• $17.89 gets you far at Bistro 110: the year-appropriate price is the cost of any entree or a glass of Krug champagne.
• Cafe Des Architectes honors not one but two revolutionary years — get a croque madame and chilled vichyssoise for $17.89, or a barbecue chicken sandwich with tomato soup for a patriotic $17.76.
• Marche is pulling out all the stops, including French lasses in costume, burlesque grand mistress Michelle "Toots" L'Amour, and a French-music-only DJ. There'll be food, too.

In Lake Havasu City, Arizona a living will, also recognized as a "healthcare directive" is a document which lays out directions for your family and your doctor regarding healthcare matters should you become so ill that you are unable to make or express such decisions.
Making a living will can save your family a great deal of grief. There are some pretty terrible instances that a living will can help you avoid. It's not uncommon for a patient to become incapacitated, leaving the doctors with only a few options. Members of your family might disagree over what you would want, leading to an extremely painful disagreement, which could have been easily avoided if they'd simply known.
For instance, some people don't want to be kept on life support if they are in a vegetative state with no considerable chance of recovery. Others, however, might prefer to be kept alive as long as humanly feasible. Another person's wishes might be something in between. In any case, if the family doesn't know what their loved one's wishes are, they may have to guess, which could lead to them making a choice that the patient would never have wanted.
Additionally, if family members have different opinions of what the patient would want, this can give rise to infighting. Disagreements on such a painful subject can tear families apart. If the patient's wishes are made clear in advance, such arguments and disagreements are far less likely.
How to Create A Living Will in Lake Havasu City, Arizona
Of course, your loved ones should be immersed in the process. They can't make these choices for you, but they'll likely be more willing to accept your decisions if they feel that their voices were heard. In any event, if your family understands what to expect when your living will is executed, the process will probably be easier.
You should then actually draft the will. To be sure that it is valid, you should have the assistance of a Lake Havasu City, Arizona attorney who specializes in wills.
Living wills generally have to follow the same formalities as regular wills (the ones that distribute a person's property after their death).
While these procedures are not identical between individual states, there are some common similarities. For instance, both testamentary and living wills normally need to be witnessed and signed by 2 people who have no direct interest in your will.
Do I Need A Lake Havasu City, Arizona Living Will Attorney?
While not always necessary, a seasoned healthcare or wills attorney in Lake Havasu City, Arizona can make this process much easier. Lawyers, obviously, understand the law. Because of this, it is much easier for them to prevent the legal pitfalls that can make a living will unenforceable.

As the calendar is closing in on the first day of school, some parents are wrestling with extreme anxiety.
"Just the fear of the unknown is terrifying," said Knightdale parent Christina Brewer. "You have this emotional gymnastics in your brain all the time."
Her son, 7-year-old Griffin, has Down Syndrome.
"We've had a lot of tears and not just from him, from me. A lot of crying sessions," said Brewer.
She says Griffin regressed last year staying at home and learning virtually. It's been hard keeping him isolated.
Griffin enjoys social settings and thrives around people.
Brewer worries he doesn't understand the rules of COVID-19, such as wearing a mask and physical distancing.
"He's a hugger. He's an emotional person. He feels things and when you're told 'You can't do that' when you're 6 and 7-years-old, that's just hard to grasp on a good day," she said.
The nonprofit SouthLight recently began reopening counseling rooms for in-person sessions and one counselor said a lot of parents are reaching out for help.
"What is going to happen when they (schools) open? What is the precautions? What are the mandates? How is my child going to feel?" said SouthLight counselor Chelsea McDougal.
She has a few strategies to ease worries.
McDougal suggests slowing down and allowing kids time to adjust, be clear about what matters to you as a parent, and identify your stressors. Fears can transfer.
"A lot of time when we're anxious and unsure, our children can feel that energy and they're unsure," said McDougal.
Brewer says she does make a conscious effort to keep her anxiety at bay, especially around her little boy.
"Check in with friends, check in with your spouse of your mate, or a professional to say 'I need help and I can't do this,'" said Brewer.
There are resources available and you don't spend a ton of money. Several Triangle nonprofits offer free or affordable services.

How Google Has Changed the Face of SEO Reporting
Wow. I was just sitting down to write this blog post, and did my customary research to see who's talking about the topic at hand on the Web.
At first, it looked like I might have something unique to say. Then I did a Google blog search and found that Stoney deGeyter published "my" post 35 minutes ago. Stoney's post, titled An End To Ranking Reports Is An End to Analysis, is a great read!
I was writing my take on the issue of personalized/customized search results affecting how we report data to clients because we have had so much discussion about the topic internally here at KoMarketing. Last week we discovered that when we were running our monthly keyword rankings reports via Web Position, we were unable to get data from Google about keyword rankings (also see this webmasterworld forum thread on the topic).
Unfortunately, providing clients with keyword rankings each month has been a necessary evil. We don't believe that keyword rankings are a very good measure of search marketing success, but our clients do, and it has been pointless to try and convince clients of this.
When Web Position encountered this difficulty last week, we started talking amongst ourselves about how this might complicate reporting to clients. To be fair (to ourselves), we always provide the "real" data – "how have we affected conversions over the past month?" But, it is difficult to come to the realization that something so profound is happening in our industry that it changes the entire reporting conversation with clients.
Here's the deal:
Google has long delivered some form of personalized search results (Jun 2005 & Feb 2007, as examples). However, the largest impact has traditionally been that search results have been affected by whether or not someone is signed into their Google account. We felt fairly comfortable telling clients that they should simply log out of their Google accounts and re-do their search to get a handle on their keyword rankings (when they are checking the results on their own, or when we are having a discussion about a particular keyword ranking).
With Google adding more transparency to customized search, we can see that Google is not simply using your search history when you are logged into your Google account, they are also using data based on IP addresses and recent search activity.
So, it is entirely possible that ALL search engine results in Google will be skewed to the user! In this case, how can keyword rankings possibly matter?
There are two problems that I see cropping up:
1) Will clients be OK not knowing how they rank? After all, I would speculate that many of the inquiries we receive for services are driven by some executive at a company asking the Marketing staff – "why don't we rank for [my favorite keyword]"? It has been refreshing to see many more conversations starting with lead generation and conversions over the past 6 months or so. It just may be difficult to get past this very simple metric that has defined our industry for so long.
2) When we are analyzing program success, and looking for strategies & tactics to improve performance, we will need to focus even deeper on the user's experience on the website. This will be a good thing in the end. But, it is sometimes difficult to pull away from "we know we have conversions for X keyword in PPC, we don't rank high enough organically, how do we improve rankings?"
That's fine by us. We focus on results within the website – overall traffic sources, keyword referral trends, bounce rates, navigational paths, and tying this all together with tracking conversions. Isn't that why SEO is of value in the first place?
Note: I can't emphasize enough how much Stoney's opinion on the issue mirrors my own – please read his post!

If you're from the United Kingdom, then you'll have seen IKEA go from strength to strength over the last decade. One of their best known desks is the Bekant, which looks pretty great when you look at it on their website.
So the last time I was in IKEA, I ended up in the office section (as always) looking for new gadgets for my home office. Whilst I was there, I ended up coming across the Bekant adjustable desk – I'd seen these kinds of standing desks online, but I wasn't 100% sure whether they were worth the investment.
At IKEA, you generally have the choice between two different types of adjustable desk – one that you adjust manually with a lever, or one that you can adjust electrically. Being the lazy person that I am, I of course opted for the electrically adjustable Bekant model.
This was half due to laziness, and partially because I looked at the IKEA example desk they had out with an adjustable lever, which was pretty much broken. I'm sure that was down to kids playing with it, but either way, I was set on the electric powered Bekant as opposed to the pneumatic desks that they had on show.
So, I purchased the Bekant back in early 2020, and it's been over a full year of owning it now. How have I got on with the Bekant a few months after initially purchasing it? Well, let me run through a quick review with you before you consider buyinh it yourself.
IKEA Bekant Desk Review – Electric Adjustable Desk
Almost a year on, and the Ikea Bekant standing desk has been doing its job pretty well. The electrics still work as well as the first day I bought the desk, and I've used them pretty much every day since. It's a great way to relieve your back in the afternoon, as no-one wants to spend 8am-6pm sat at a desk for the entire day.
I decided to match the Bekant up with the Järvfjället, which is one of the higher quality office chairs that Ikea also sell. They're both in a white colour, which you can't find too often if you're based in the UK. The colour options were actually a major factor in my decision.
And with electric standing desks being few and far between, this still stands out as one of the cheaper options out there. Let's get this straight – it's not cheap by any standards. It's still retailing at over £400 on the Ikea website, so you'll need to be looking for a desk within this price point.
But I do think that these desks tend to be pretty expensive all round, and when you compare it to others similar, it's probably one of the lower costing desks for its style. It is fairly noisy though when adjusting the height, so bear this in mind.
When looking online, the main problem that I can see people have had with their desk is an issue with one of the columns. This then leads to the desk tilting to one side, and a couple of people seem to have had this problem if you look at other purchasers.
I can only speak for my own experience, with the table top itself being fine and holding up pretty well. It is hard to comment on the weight capacity, as I've never had more than 20kg of equipment on the top.
It's been fine with this, but I'm not sure if it'd be okay with heavier items than this being placed on the desk itself. Let's look at some of the aspects of this standing desk in more detail.
Building the Table
Now, I'm definitely not the most DIY friendly person. In fact, I'm pretty useless at putting stuff together, and it took me a good few hours to put up my similar wardrobe from IKEA.
The Bekant isn't super easy to put up, but by the same standards, I wouldn't say it was that tough either, especially with the electrical aspect of the desk too. You don't need to worry about being an expert.
I managed to put the desk up in around an hour of my time, but that was with the help of a friend who was a little more.. mechanically gifted, shall I say. If I had to do it alone, it would have taken me a lot longer, but it can be done by anyone with a little DIY nouse.
The electric function of the desk works great and is really responsive – to be honest, I don't have it switched on all the time, as I don't like to leave plugs on.
But throughout the day, when my back starts aching in the afternoon, I'll raise the desk up to standing position and start doing some easier work. This is a great way to take a break and give myself the chance to stretch my legs.
It's around 125 cm (49 inches) from the ground at its highest point, and 65cm (25 inches) from the ground at its lowest. The height adjustment function is very simple to use, and you can have it at any height in-between those two measurements.
I use a laptop on a stand as in the image below, as it's just at the right height for me to be in line with my monitor. For taller folks (I'm 180cm), it may not quite be high enough off the ground for you to use a monitor alone. So, it may pay to look at getting one of the small stands that Ikea offer too.
The desk also comes with a key that you can put into the electric panel – if you don't have this key inserted, then it won't work and you can't put the desk up and down.
Appearance & Design
To be honest, the appearance wasn't one of the things that drew me to the Bekant. It doesn't look ugly or anything, but it's also not the nicest looking desk out there. It's mainly there for its practicality as opposed to its appearance.
However, in general I do like the design of this IKEA desk. Aside from being adjustable, the feet of the desk are made to be extremely sturdy (a necessity with any adjustable table).
You can get the Bekant in both a white colour and a black colour, which isn't nearly as nice in my opinion. The table top itself is made from particleboard, which means that it's not going to warp in the future.
In terms of dimensions, the desk is around 1.3m long and 0.85m with curved edges. I've found this to be the perfect size for my study room, but it might be a little large if you want the table in your bedroom.
Altogether the packages weigh 25kg, though they do come in two separate boxes which makes things a little easier to carry. One thing I do like a lot about the desk is the easy cable management due to the small pocket beneath it.
This makes it really easy to tuck the power adapter in there without it dragging or taking up space on the floor.
Overall, although this desk is more expensive than I'd typically like to pay for a desk, it's proved to be a great investment and I'm very happy with it.
Whether this is just because this is my first electronically adjustable desk or not I'm not sure, but having the ability to change my desk to a standing desk whenever I want has proved invaluable.
In terms of the longevity, I've only had the desk for a few months so I can't comment on that too much. However, in the short time I've owned it I've definitely found it to be very resilient

Top 4 Ways to Keep Your Mac Humming
We all hate them—the spinning beachballs. We all get them too. Today I'm going to provide you a list of four easy things you can do to keep your Mac humming along, and not feel like a glugged-out Windows system.
Of course, if you want, then the easiest way to make your Mac feel like Windows is to run Windows on it, but that's taking the easy way out. Let's look at some other ways that don't involve quite as much polluting of your Mac.
Bear in mind though, that these are dependent on the specs of your Mac, especially your Mac's memory (RAM). Tiger likes 1GB of RAM. Panther doesn't mind it either. The problems described will be a lot worse and happen a lot sooner if you run your Mac with insufficient RAM. Upgrading your memory could go on this list, but for this list, I'm sticking to simple things you can do from time to time.
Let's do this countdown style. So here they are, the Top 4 Ways to Will Your Mac, or if you follow each one's instructions, the Top 4 Ways to Keep Your Mac Running Sweet.
Number 4: Use Fast User Switching
Fast User Switching is good in theory – provided you follow the theory of it letting you log in, do what you need to do, and log out again. It's when you leave a user left logged on in the background that you'll notice a performance hit.
This one I only discovered recently, but was amazed how much the system slowed down with even one user logged on in the background .
Recommendation: If Fast User Switching is enabled, log off inactive users where possible.
Number 3: Have heaps of applications open at once
OS X can be forgiving of bad habits and handles many applications open at once very well, so it can take a while for this one to hit. It's easy to get in the habit of not closing applications because you might need them again soon or later. Often though it's later. Sometimes days later. I find when things start to get sluggish, I have over 20 applications open and closing a few helps. Even so, I've rarely got less than a dozen open.
Also, some applications are more resource hungry than others, so get to know which ones are, and only keep them running when needed. You'll be able to tell because you'll notice the performance drop when they are open.
Recommendation: Close applications that you won't be using again for a while.
Number 2: Use a web browser
Those suckers seem to be built for killin'. They're the most effective computer killing software known to man (besides Windows viruses).
Okay, this is not entirely true. Some research has identified the problem is not so much the browsers, as rogue websites. I found one that I visited each week, that chews up 20MB of virtual memory every few minutes – and it doesn't matter which browser I use.
Also, opening many browser windows or tabs chews up resources. It's not uncommon for me to have dozens of web pages open. So closing web pages you no longer need, or don't have the time to read yet, can help.
Beware too of applications that have web browsers built-in, such as the excellent NetNewsWire, as these can drain resources for the same reasons.
Recommendation: From time to time (maybe once a week), quit your browser and restart it.
Number 1: Never reboot
Okay, so I know that one's going to test my fire insurance, but have you ever read the forums after a minor upgrade of OS X? You get so many: "Maybe it's just me, but my system feels a bit zippier after installing this update. Shame I had to reboot though - my uptime was 273 years."
Believe it or not, even Macs need to be rebooted. Occasionally. Sure you need to reboot Windows PCs regularly - daily never hurts, but it doesn't hurt to reboot a Mac either… every few weeks.
Recommendation: If your system's sluggish, and the above don't help, then don't be afraid to reboot.
These are four things that I have found work for me. If anyone else has simple tasks they regularly perform to keep their Mac running sweet, let us know.

Coming Soon
Lost Ark has been the latest MMORPG to take over the Steam servers since it was released, and unlike other titles that've premiered in the last year, Lost Ark has been maintaining a steady playerbase since it launhced.
Now, they've gone ahead and pushed a major update for the month of May which brings a ton of content for players to sink their teeth into.
We're going to run over the patch notes down below!
Lost Ark May Update Patch Notes
altan will introduce the first Legion Raid into the western version of Lost Ark. Legion Raids are difficult team-based activities that require teamwork to understand and execute the strategy necessary to counter each Legion Commander's unique characteristics, abilities, and mechanics. As Legion Raids are challenging and take time, there are gates (or checkpoints) that will save player's progress as they advance through the Raid. Valtan is an eight-player Legion raid, has 2 gates, and introduces a swathe of new mechanics. Players will need to be item level 1415 to attempt normal difficulty, and 1445 for hard. The Valtan Legion Raid will also introduce a new rarity for gear - "Relic". Relic gear can be crafted from materials earned in the raid. It provides more impactful armor and weapon bonuses, alongside bigger stat bonuses and more engraving nodes on accessories.
Guardians are powerful entities that can tip the scales toward good or evil. A new Guardian will arise and must be vanquished before they usher in an age of darkness. Deskaluda will require an item level of 1415 to attempt. As with the other Guardian Raids, you can attempt to vanquish Deskaluda alone, with a party, or matchmake with up to three other heroes. Similar to the rewards in the Valtan Legion Raid, players will also have a chance to earn Relic quality accessories from defeating Deskaluda.
We've talked about the cataclysmic impact that Warriors have on the battlefield, but nothing embodies this better than the hammer-wielding Destroyer. Armed with a variety of skills centered around charging into the heart of the fray, their hammer attacks are so catastrophically crushing that Destroyers can bend gravity to their will— slowing, launching, pushing and pulling enemies— whatever it takes to utterly, beyond a shadow of a doubt, destroy them. Dealing massive stagger damage, the Destroyer is a welcome addition to any party attempting to vanquish powerful foes. The Destroyer will join the Berserker, Paladin, and Gunlancer as the fourth Warrior Advanced Class.
Challenge Guardian Raids will add a new weekly activity for players looking for a challenge. Each week, players can attempt to defeat three Challenge Guardians. Every Guardian has their own required item level to enter, and each week one Guardian will rotate out, replaced by a different foe. Differing from a normal Guardian Raid, Challenge Guardian Raids will apply 'Scale of Balance' so that your characters' item level will be adjusted appropriately to that of their enemy. Additionally, players cannot use the Battle Workshop in the raid region. However, with increased challenge comes increased rewards. Rewards for each Challenge Guardian can be obtained once per roster, per week, and offer more diverse rewards than normal Guardian Raids.
South Vern Activities - Chaos Line Hard Mode, Thunderwings Field Boss, the South Vern Chaos Gate, South Vern Ghost Ship, and South Vern Chaos Dungeons will all be arriving in Arkesia.
Wild Wings Island - Arkesia is a vast land, filled with a myriad of menacing and sometimes, well, less-menacing threats. Seeking revenge for eating their friends and family, Crispy Golden Chickings are planning to raid the island. Players turn into a chicken or beer to battle the Chicking boss to earn event coins. The quicker you defeat waves of enemies, the quicker more Chickings appear and the more coins you can earn! Wild Wings Island is a new event island where players can participate in co-op quests or join solo to help suppress this unique uprising.
While being in a guild has been a helpful source of finding raid groups and providing benefits like the guild shop, new PvE and PvP guild activities will be arriving in May. Issue challenges across Arkesia to control guild bases to prove your guild is the best around.
Island Siege - A PvP guild activity that allows you to battle other guilds in PvP combat. Your ranking is determined by how many points you earn from capturing objectives and defeating enemy players. Earn rewards and perks like gems, accessories, ability stones and more.
Raid Match - Enter a base with your guild and challenge the powerful Sylmael Devourer. Once summoned, you'll have limited-time to cooperate with your guild and quickly destroy the Sylmael Devourer. The faster you kill, the more you move up in the guild rankings.
If you're not in a guild yet, time to start searching! You can use the [Alt-U] hotkey or find the guild menu on the list of menus by pressing escape. Once there, if you're not in a guild, you can browse through and apply! Many awesome Lost Ark content creators also have series of guilds for their communities, so make sure to see if there are guilds for any communities or friend groups you might already be a part of.
May will also introduce a bunch of quality of life changes, including front and back attack indicators, the ability to check daily & weekly content participation in a new menu, UI updates, improved party finder & party invites, updated loot dismantling, convenience features for Market/Auction House, and a few fun features, like being able to randomly summon favorited mounts and new hairstyles for customization!
Including a recent rework of the Destroyer Advanced Class to increase his impact on the battlefield, Smilegate RPG recently released a balance patch on many of the Advanced Classes to tune, update, and further define these classes' roles on the battlefield. We'll provide more specifics for players unfamiliar with these changes in the release notes, but you can look forward to these changes coming to Arkesia alongside the Destroyer.
We're excited for the new activities coming to Arkesia later in May, seeing players attempt the first Legion Raid, participate in more end-game content, and watching Guild vs. Guild action ramp up. We know that players are always curious what's on the horizon. Now that we've locked in Valtan, Deskaluda, & more end-game content for May, we'll be taking a look at the roadmap for summer and share a glance later this month at our plans. As always, we'll continue monitoring player data and feedback into our decision making, and look forward to hearing your thoughts.

PhantomBot Review 2024
Having a healthy Twitch profile can seriously up your chances of making money through your live streaming efforts.
When you have a lot of stream viewers that are engaged with your stream, you can make some good tips and profits.
It's important that you engage with your viewers and encourage them, feature them, and invite them to come back. Building a relationship with your Twitch followers and stream viewers is key to success.
While this can be simple if you only have a few viewers, it gets more complicated the more popular your Twitch streams become. You don't want to miss engagements, but you don't want to minimize the quality of your streams.
For this reason, you'll see that many companies have emerged offering Twitch bots to help with not only chat moderation but viewers as well.
Deciding to use a bot on your Twitch channel can be a big decision, and if you choose the wrong one, you can put your Twitch account in a bad place. There are many to choose from, so how do you know if it's a good choice?
For this reason we've investigated the different options out there and we're bringing you our PhantomBot review today to help make your decision easier.
After reading our review, you'll understand more about PhantomBot and whether or not it's a legitimate option for Twitch streaming. Let's take a look!
Twitch ChatBot?
The biggest problem that we encountered when we looked into PhantomBot was the inability to access their original PhantomBot.tv website.
When you search PhantomBot on Google, that website will appear, but it says that there is no available info for that page. When you click it, it's just an ad website with nothing about PhantomBot.
This is a common occurrence when a site has had problems with operation and have effectively removed their presence from the web. It's not surprising, since Twitch bots have been notoriously shamed by the platform itself.
Twitch doesn't condone the use of bots in an effort to maintain the integrity of its platform and live streams, and it's probable that many of them will begin to fall with the lack of support and integration from Twitch.
In any case, there is still an available option to find out about PhantomBot on a different website, and it is described as a multipurpose Twitch chat bot. When navigating to this page, however, it doesn't look much better.
Top-rated Growth Tools for Twitch
Rank | Service | |
1 | Media Mister | Visit |
2 | UseViral | Visit |
3 | SidesMedia | Visit |
Looks Shady
In fact, when you check out the available website for PhantomBot, you'll see nothing but a bunch of menu options and text. It almost looks like another advertisement page, but you can see the information is related to PhantomBot.
You'll see a variety of options including download, discord, control panel, auth generator, and a few more options. It doesn't give any breakdown of PhantomBot features, nor how it works.
The only thing is that you can't access the control panel, as it's locked. In order to do this, you'll have to log in, which means you'll have to turn over your Twitch login information to the bot.
This is very sketchy, especially for a website that claims to offer a service but has nothing more than a skeleton of information available to the public. We didn't feel good about it, and it's likely that you're putting your Twitch profile at risk if you decide to indeed provide the login credentials.
It's understandable that people want a way to streamline their Twitch chat box and make things more exciting for viewers, but PhantomBot doesn't appear to offer users that in a safe way.
Moreover, everything that a chatbot can do, you can do yourself. It's much better for your reputation and Twitch performance to perpetuate these engagements yourself; after all, users view your streams to interact with you, not with some robot from the depths of the internet.
When choosing a service that helps your Twitch performance, or any social media performance and growth for that matter, avoid companies like these that offer very little information and want you to provide your credentials.
Review Conclusion
PhantomBot lives up to its name in the sense that it's almost impossible to find real and valid information about what the service will do for your Twitch channel.
The fact that they are so stingy with information yet require your login credentials to access the bot is a red flag. Don't put your account at risk, especially for a service that Twitch doesn't endorse.
