- Page 1 Saitek Cyborg 5.1 Headset Review
- Page 2 Saitek Cyborg 5.1 Headset Review
- Page 3 Saitek Cyborg 5.1 Headset Review
Portability is certainly a strong point of this headset, considering it is a 5.1 model (hello, LAN-Party!). Rotating cans and a detachable microphone let it get as compact as you can expect, and clicking it into the moulded depressions of the hard case takes under half a minute. In addition it's very light, with the whole bundle including case weighing a mere 482 grams.
When you first plug the headset in using USB, the somewhat ugly Cyborg logo (a half human, half robot face) on each cup gets lit up in two different colours: red on the left, green on the right. Saitek seem to be giving all their recent products multicoloured LEDs, which looks jarring, cheap and inconsistent. It does give Cyborg products a unique look, but it's at best an acquired taste.
A pity too, since the rest of the headset is really quite attractive. The ear-cups are foam with a leatherette trim, and a glossy black hard plastic back with a nice perforation pattern. The hinged cup-holders are silver, while the headband is semi-matte plastic with the Cyborg name in muted grey, with a leatherette-padded section in the middle.
Unlike the solid construction of the excellent Saitek Eclipse Keyboard, these new Cyborgs do not hold up as well. Build quality is not bad, but it's hardly exceptional; there is some creaking when adjusting the headphones, and flex on the plastic of the headband. Frankly, you'd expect a bit better for the price, and overall the set feels 'plasticky'.
When it comes to wearer comfort though, Saitek has done an adequate job. Adjustment is pretty much standard for headphones. The cups (or cans, if you're from across the Atlantic) can be rotated flat and are hinged, so they will always sit close against your ears.
The foam padding is sufficient, and because they're circum-aural (surrounding your entire ear) the cups form a closed sound-stage. The main niggle here is that they don't quite feel large enough to allow my ears to be comfortable for extended periods.
The headband can be lengthened, and thankfully the extending sections are metal, so won't break like cheap plastic ones tend to do. Annoyingly for the perfectionists among us, increments are barely notched, so both sides might not be equally adjusted by the time you're finished. However, this does make it easier to adjust the headband while wearing the Cyborgs. The headband padding is again adequate, but a little more wouldn't have hurt.
It's only when you compare Saitek's most recent efforts to other sets, like the light Icemat Siberia headphones, that you realize the Saitek's are a tad confining, clunky and heavy; putting on the Icemats felt like a relief. A fairer comparison might be with my 5.1 Trittons, which despite being far heavier are still more comfortable, thanks to large amounts of padding. Basically, the Cyborgs are comfortable enough to get by with, but not the ideal set for hours-long gaming sessions.

i cannot tell a lie
i think now about how you asked me if i did it on my own. alone. or if i surrounded myself. warm bodies as protection, distraction.
and i must have half-smiled. taken a deep breath. tilted my head to the ground. looked away, even as we walked together, the same direction compelling us forward.
i knew if i was honest it'd be years before we'd meet again.
but i cannot tell a lie. and even if i could, i figured it was a lie that would bury us in that illusory thing that is borrowed time.
so i gave you the single greatest truth i now hold:
i did it on my own.
and another before-and-after erupted before us. an uncrossable, impassable, impossible line.
and now i watch from a distance, and only upon occasion, as you thrust and flail and do it exactly as i did not, but in the only way you know how--for now. because time moves differently for each of us.
and i must forgive you for this.
for seeking comfort in familiar cutouts that bear no resemblance to my own.
now i wonder if you'll ever come back. and mostly fear you will.
and that when you do i will know too much and have seen too much and my answer will be the saddest and deepest and bluest bruise of a no.

"What is the most common issue you see with your clients and their horses, and how do you solve it?"
This is a question I was asked to write about. Here are some thoughts I had around that topic...
Q&A with Glenn & Dealer...
What can you do to help a horse that pulls back?
Contrary to some people's way of thinking, horses do not enjoy, like, or think it is fun to pull back. It hurts and they are very worried, scared and claustrophobic feeling when they pull back. It is much more difficult to teach a horse not to pull after he has started pulling than to learn some exercises and then use them with your horse to avoid the pulling in the first place.
Considering warmer weather is right around the corner many of you, including folks who had their horses ridden in the Horse Ranch Development program, will be making the first ride of the spring. I thought I'd share a few thoughts about the importance of the warm up, and include a few personal photos that you might find humorous about what can happen when you don't take the time to do it properly.

The Gemological Institute of America will officially open GIA South Africa, its new laboratory in Johannesburg, on Feb. 21.
"GIA is moving quickly to bring its services to our global clients," said Thomas M. Moses, senior vice president, GIA Laboratory and Research.
The Johannesburg office will initially provide GIA Diamond Dossiers, which covers stones ranging from 0.15 cts. up to 1.99 cts., Moses said. It will eventually offer classes, seminars, and scholarships.
GIA South Africa introduced a GIA Diamond Fee Schedule Friday to reflect current GIA fees as converted to the South African Rand currency, Moses said.
The GIA laboratory in Johannesburg will accept any size diamond, colored stone, or pearl from GIA clients in the region. For any service other than the Diamond Dossier report, items can be delivered to the laboratory and GIA will send them for service at one of its other laboratories and return them to Johannesburg for customer pickup. GIA has also been granted a VAT exemption so these services will not be subject to the traditional fee for shipping stones outside of South Africa for servicing.
Leslie (Les) Milner, director of the GIA Laboratory in Johannesburg (pictured), and an experienced team of laboratory diamond graders were trained in the U.S. at the end of last year so they could be immersed in the GIA grading methods and fully aligned with the Institute's standards. They will be joined by a team of experienced GIA graders from the U.S. offices.
"We have been learning GIA's grading methodology while working with the great array of state-of-the-art research and scientific equipment GIA has at its disposal," Milner said. "As technology advances, you need an up-to-date research facility with the expertly trained staff and resources to advance the future of the industry here in South Africa."
The address for the new GIA Laboratory in Johannesburg is Suite 512, 5th Floor, S.A. Diamond Centre, 225 Main Street, Johannesburg 2001. The mailing address is P.O. Box 1756, Houghton, 2041, South Africa. The hours are 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday. The general phone number is (011) 27 11 334-2744, and the fax number is (011) 27 11 334-0932.Follow JCK on Instagram: @jckmagazine

Situation report: Zika virus, microcephaly, Guillain-Barre syndrome.
[Geneva, Switzerland], WHO, 2016 Jun 9. [6] p.As of 8 June 2016, 60 countries and territories report continuing mosquito-borne transmission of which: 46 countries are experiencing a first outbreak of Zika virus since 2015, with no previous evidence of circulation, and with ongoing transmission by mosquitos. 14 countries reported evidence of Zika virus transmission between 2007 and 2014, with ongoing transmission. In addition, four countries or territories have reported evidence of Zika virus transmission between 2007 and 2014, without ongoing transmission: Cook Islands, French Polynesia, ISLA DE PASCUA -Chile and YAP (Federated States of Micronesia). Ten countries have reported evidence of person-to-person transmission of Zika virus, probably via a sexual route. In the week to 8 June 2016, no new country reported mosquito-borne or person-to-person Zika virus transmission. As of 8 June 2016, microcephaly and other central nervous system (CNS) malformations potentially associated with Zika virus infection or suggestive of congenital infection have been reported by eleven countries or territories. Three of those reported microcephaly borne from mothers with a recent travel history to Brazil (Slovenia, United States of America) and Colombia (Spain), for one additional case the precise country of travel in Latin America is not determined. In the context of Zika virus circulation, 13 countries and territories worldwide have reported an increased incidence of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) and/or laboratory confirmation of a Zika virus infection among GBS cases. As of 8 June, Cabo Verde has reported a total of six cases of microcephaly and other neurological abnormalities with serological indication of previous Zika infection. Based on research to date, there is scientific consensus that Zika virus is a cause of microcephaly and GBS. The global Strategic Response Framework launched by the World Health Organization (WHO) in February 2016 encompasses surveillance, response activities and research. An interim report has been published on some of the key activities being undertaken jointly by WHO and international, regional and national partners in response to this public health emergency. A revised strategy for the period July 2016 to December 2017 is currently being developed with partners and will be published in mid-June. WHO has developed new advice and information on diverse topics in the context of Zika virus. WHO's latest information materials, news and resources to support corporate and programmatic risk communication, and community engagement are available online. (Excerpt)
Pregnancy management in the context of Zika virus infection. Interim guidance update.
Geneva, Switzerland, WHO, 2016 May 13. [14] p. (WHO/ZIKV/MOC/16.2 Rev.1)The mosquito vector that carries the Zika virus thrives in warm climates and particularly in areas of poor living conditions. Pregnant women living in or travelling to such areas are at equal risk as the rest of the population of being infected by viruses borne by this vector. Maternal infection with Zika virus may go unnoticed as some people will not develop symptoms. Although Zika virus infection in pregnancy is typically a mild disease, an unusual increase in cases of congenital microcephaly, Guillain-Barré syndrome and other neurological complications in areas where outbreaks have occurred, has significantly raised concern for pregnant women and their families, as well as health providers and policy-makers. The aim of this document is to provide interim guidance for interventions to reduce the risk of maternal Zika virus infection and to manage potential complications during pregnancy. This guidance is based on the best available research evidence and covers areas prioritized by an international, multidisciplinary group of health care professionals and other stakeholders. Specifically, it presents guidance for preventing Zika virus infection; antenatal care and management of women with infection; and care during pregnancy for all pregnant women living in affected areas, with the aim of optimizing health outcomes for mothers and newborns. The guidance is intended to inform the development of national and local clinical protocols and health policies that relate to pregnancy care in the context of Zika virus transmission. It is not intended to provide a comprehensive practical guide for the prevention and management of Zika virus.
Prevention of sexual transmission of Zika virus. Interim guidance update.
Geneva, Switzerland, WHO, 2016 May 30. [4] p. (WHO/ZIKV/MOC/16.1 Rev.1)This document is an update of guidance published on 18 February 2016 to provide advice on the prevention of sexual transmission of Zika virus.The primary transmission route of Zika virus is via the Aedes mosquito. However, mounting evidence has shown that sexual transmission of Zika virus is possible and more common than previously assumed. This is of concern due to an association between Zika virus infection and adverse pregnancy and fetal outcomes, including microcephaly, neurological complications and Guillain-Barre syndrome. The current evidence base on Zika virus remains limited. This guidance will be reviewed and the recommendations updated as new evidence emerges.

The SNES Mini is scheduled to launch this winter and the development of the device has already started. When the NES Mini was released last year, it was met with so much demand and fanfare that it was almost always sold out. Nintendo explained that it never intended NES mini to be a permanent product. From the company's perspective, the mini console was planned as a cool vintage item for last Christmas.

What's the Difference Between a Corn & a Callus?
With springtime, outdoor physical activity becomes more amenable and the possibility of foot problems tends to increase. One of the inevitable consequences of getting active again after a long winter of sedentary tendencies is that you will develop problems with your feet and ankles, including painful corns and calluses.
Corns and calluses form as the body's response to friction and pressure from such things as wearing shoes that are too tight and feeling the new pressure from footfalls. Athletes, like tennis and basketball players, tend to develop corns and calluses due to all the pressure on their feet and ankles. Problems such as poor gait mechanics can be a factor as well by causing excessive rubbing, but this can be abated by using properly fitted shoes and custom orthotic inserts.
What is the difference between corns & calluses?
· Corns—These develop where your toes rub together, or wherever else you have excess pressure on your toes or other parts of your feet, often caused by improperly fitting footwear.
· Calluses—Often much thicker and larger than corns, calluses will appear on the heel or ball of the foot where the increase in pressure causes this reaction.
Treatments you can try at home for corns and calluses
· Moleskin or foam pads—These can be placed over a corn to help isolate it and prevent the rubbing that causes calluses and corns.
· Foot soaks—In a tub of warm soapy water, soak your feet to allow the dead skin of calluses to become softer and easier to remove. Using an emery board or pumice stone will help to gently rub away the dry and damaged skin.
If you are having issues with corns or calluses, see your podiatrist right away. At Fit Feet for Life, our team of board-certified podiatrists has access to advanced technologies and years of experience to help diagnose and treat a variety of foot and ankle problems, including heel pain, sports injuries, toe deformities, nail fungus, and plantar warts. Bonnie Sanchez, DPM, and Gregory Cook, DPM, provide high-quality foot and ankle care to patients in the Tampa/St. Petersburg area at our five offices conveniently located in Sun City Center, Clearwater, St. Petersburg, and our two Tampa locations. Please contact us for more information or to schedule an appointment.

Lost and Found
Has your pet gone missing? Let us help…
We are launching a new lost pet service from our Lichfield hospital. This service is free of charge and open to clients and non-clients. The service includes:
- assignment of a member of our lost pet liaison team – meet and talk with one of the team who can work with you to try and find your pet.
- missing pet poster
- we will check local practices, rescue centres and the local papers for information on your pet
- posting on our facebook page
To report a missing pet either:
1. Fill out our online missing pets form
2. Phone the practice and speak to a member of our reception team on 01543 262464
If you think you may have seen an animal matching any of the descriptions below then please phone the practice.
Sadly it is all too common that we see cats who have clearly been well looked after and must have an owner somewhere but without any form of identification we struggle to reunite them. What makes it worse for us is that situation can easily be avoided by having your pet microchipped. For only £15 we can implant a microchip that will last a lifetime and means even if your cat strays from home, we will know they belong to you and we can get them home to you as soon as possible.

There's no expensive photoshoot required to get a series of shots of you that you're really happy with.
Here are my top tips for mastering the perfect selfie…
* learn how to use your camera's auto setting
* pick a pretty background
* catch yourself on a good hair day
* alternatively, shoot into a mirror (if you're over 40, a slightly dusty one can be your best friend)
* pick your very favourite outfit
* don't be afraid to pose away – no one can see you!
* take a shed-load from different angles and expressions
* every now and then, pull a daft face to relax your facial muscles
* experiment with the position of the mirror for different lighting effects
* for a relaxed, happy look, think of someone you love or something funny
* don't be afraid to let your personality (plus age and flaws!) shine through
* edit them well, focussing especially on brightness, contrast and fill light

The Case for Collective Human Rights: The Reality of Group Suffering [Abstract]
Ethics & International Affairs, Volume 10 (1996)
December 4, 1996
In a world increasingly both fragmented and globalized, there is a need for a normative framework of values linking individual and group concerns by means of a conception of collective human rights. Felice argues that individual human rights, which have proven to be of enormous value in the twentieth century, must be extended to communities ranging from the family unit to the entire human community.

Sleepy Edda
I had been wrestling with Edda for over an hour to get her to fall asleep. Jeremy came in and took my place, scooted next to Edda and in 5 min, she was snoring away.

Sorry not to comment in so long been up in snow in Oregon! Texas is very, very hot and even more dry. Sweet, sweet, sweet sleeping picture. I love the pix of Edda with pigtails! Regarding sloth: My new motto is from a book I just finished, "True Women". All about the pioneering women living in Tejas before it became a state, such a rugged hard life back then. Motto is "Happiness is getting things done". So true.

Whether you use billboards, media commercials, a website, or any combination of ways to generate leads for your law firm, it isn't going to help if your conversion statistics are low. People looking for legal advice or help see dozens of law firm names a week. They may do an internet search to find a few different firms near them to call and ask questions or for a free consultation. If this initial interaction is not dealt with properly, the prospective client will go elsewhere for help. This is what lead conversion for law firms is all about. The ability to make turn the initial interaction into a paying client. Here are a few tips to help make this happen:
Dedicated Lead Intake Specialist
While a receptionist for current clients is fine, you need someone more adept at pitching and sales when dealing with fresh leads. This person needs to be a bit knowledgeable about the firm and the types of legal issues you handle, and also be a bit familiar with the law. This could be an intern lawyer with previous sales experience. If you must choose between a law background and a sales background, go with the person who has sales experience. You can teach him or her about the firm and how to avoid actually giving legal advice. However, teaching someone how to make a sale is not always easy.
Immediate Response
Once you have a potential client, whether someone calls the office or visits your website, you need to interact with them within minutes. Do not let people sit on hold, leave a message or fill out a request for information that gets no response until the end of the day or even hours later. If you do not connect with them immediately they will call another firm.
Once you have had some type of interaction or gotten contact information, be sure to follow up with them. If you got contact information from your website, call the person as soon as possible (hopefully within minutes) to discuss the situation. If you do not get a commitment from them to at least come in for a free consultation, call them back the next day. Unless you are told they are no longer in need of your services, continue to contact them daily for a week or so.
Potential clients contact you for a reason. They may not be quite ready to follow through with the legal situation, but maybe they should be. It is up to your lead intake specialist to make multiple attempts to gain their business. Your firm's insistence that the matter is resolved will show the client that you are dedicated and will get the job done. Sometimes being a bit pushy is what is needed.Share

This post contains SPOILERS if you haven't read the book and don't want to miss out on some surprises. "Ready Player One" is last year's most inventive sci-fi novel. Like a literary Quentin Tarantino, author Ernest Cline takes tropes from '80s sci-fi and fantasy movies, video games, and books and blends them into their own unique creation. The story primarily takes place in a MMORPG that blends video games and the world wide web, called the Oasis. The next step after Snow Crash's Metaverse, the Oasis is where most people spend their time in 2044. In a vaguely dystopian world that doesn't sound too different than the present day, people primarily live their lives through their avatars. They live, work, shop, party and go to school online in the Oasis. It's a computer generated reality that looks very lifelike, so I imagine a sort of Tintin/Polar Express thing could actually work. But the biggest task will be licensing all the film, video game, and TV characters, plus specific scenes from movies, most notably War Games. It would require the sort of situation that happened with Who Framed Roger Rabbit, where Warner allowed Disney to use the Looney Tunes characters.
But let's pretend I'm in charge of casting the movie. For Wade Watts/Parzival, an 18-year-old high school student/gunter, I'd pick Jeremy Allen White. His name may not be familiar, but if you watch Shameless, you'll know him as Lip Gallagher. He's not cookie cutter handsome, but he is good looking. He's not overweight, but he looks like he could put some on if he needed to. Plus he's a pretty charming actor. I could see him as convincingly love struck and driven.
Art3mis, a 19-year-old student/gunter/blogger is described as a little overweight. Mind you, 160 pounds on a 5'7" frame isn't really overweight so much as curvy with big thighs. I'd pick Mae Whitman. She's done great work on Parenthood and in the little seen In Treatment. She also has the geek cred for her work in Scott Pilgrim and Arrested Development. But it's really on TV where she's shown her talent as an actress. She can convey such a seething look of hurt, it's heartbreaking. That will be needed to carry her when Art3mis gets really down on Parzival.
Aech (pronounced like the letter H) gets tricky to cast. He's Parzival's best friend, another high school student/gunter. But he's also an overweight black chick in real life. You'll probably have to cast an unknown. Gabouray Sibidie is a little old for the role, but her demeanor on talk shows highlights that she'd actually be awesome at the part. But you'd need a different actor for the avatar version. How about Dan Byrd who plays Courtney Cox's son on Cougar Town? He can play socially inept with the best of them. Plus he's got comedic chops, and Aech is kind of the sidekick.
Shoto is tricky because he's Japanese. His age is never stated, but I get the impression he's a little older, maybe 20? He needs to speak English perfectly too. You could cast a Japanese-American actor in the role, since Shoto says he partially grew up in the US. I could cast a Japanese adult, but the last Japanese movie I saw with a ton of kids is Battle Royale which is over ten years old, so those kids won't pass as teens anymore. Someone get me some headshots!
On to adults. The most prominent is the villain, Sorrento, the head of the Sixers. He needs to be formidable and scary. I always like the idea of casting someone who usually plays good guys as the bad guy, so how about John Cusack? He was in a ton of '80s movies that get referenced, it'd be cool if he could turn that on its head. Ernest Cline mentioned in an interview that he'd like to see '80s teen movie actors in this, and he's one of the few who's still a big name. I'd like to see him use his charm for evil instead of good.
For James Halliday, creator of the Oasis and the Easter egg contest, how about Christopher Ecclesteson? He has awesome geek cred since he's played The Doctor in Doctor Who. But he has the ability to play badass and seem really vulnerable at the same time. Has anyone seen Jude? God, that was a traumatic movie. He also has the most intense stare ever.
The last main character is Og, Ogden Morrow, co-creator of the Oasis and friend to James Halliday. Is it weird that I would like to see Levar Burton in this role? Maybe it's because Wade credits him with teaching him to read, and Levar Burton was instrumental in teaching me to love reading from his years on Reading Rainbow. Plus he seems to have Og's joie de vivre.
Whoever takes on the project has their work cut out for them, but it's a wonderful book and Ready Player One could be an awesome movie. Let's hope it ends up in the right hands. (ahem) Joss Whedon.

Instead of a bunch of mind-numbing meetings today, my employer put us all on a bus to Soweto to enjoy lunch at Chaf Pozi, which sits directly under the giant colourful water cooling towers in Soweto. I think it was the best "back-to-school" staff development session ever.
The restaurant/bar consists of long tables in an open space. The bar area and the place where the cooking takes place are open and accessible – I do like to be able to see where my food is being cooked.
I can imagine how vibey it is on the weekends. Today, it was mostly our staff, so it wasn't that full. It was fun, nonetheless. They played music that got people moving – some out of their seats even, and the bar is very well stocked.
The food – I guess because we were a large group – consisted of a HUGE plate of nyama – chicken, chops and wors – as well as smaller dishes of coleslaw, chakalaka, pap and tomato gravy for each table. Yum yum!
My favourite part was paying the small fee to catch the lift (like a little funicular, really) to the top of one of the cooling towers. This is where the bungee jumping and the big swing normally take place, but the bungee crew weren't there today. The view was spectacular, but it wasn't very good for those with vertigo!
There are all sorts of other outdoorsy and adventure sports to be had there. I had a great day, and will certainly return with friends who aren't afraid to shake their chassis on a weekend. Lokshin vibes are always fun.

I Am Every Moment/
Every moment is free of any definition.
Every moment is a new experience.
Every moment is now.
I am this.
I am every moment;
each one existing only within me.
I am empty,
yet within me all things appear.
I am not what I experience;
I am the experiencing of them.
I am not the seer
who sees what is seen;
I am the seeing.
I am the presence of awareness
that illumines all things,
that allows all things to Be.
I am this presence of awareness;
nothing more, nothing less.
I am this eternal moment;
unbound by body or mind.
I am this knowing.

Rain Couldn't Ruin This Romantic Summer Look
Happy Monday, guys! :) Today, I am sharing one of my favourite romantic summer looks! By the way, do not mind my hair, I know it looks crazy. On the day of this shoot, this was the last look. As Jude and I were walking to this location, it began to rain. That is why my pretty straight hair turned into this wavy mess. Haha!
I love everything about this two piece set: the colour, the material of the top and skirt, the details on the top, the length of the skirt. The whole look is so girlie and creates a romantic vibe, which is why I decided to get flowers for this shoot. This is a perfect look to wear to a wedding as a guest, or to a summer date!
What do you think of this look? Where would you wear it? Let me know in comments! :)
P.S.: I bought this dress at TJ Maxx, and it is by XSCAPE!

The Etruscan coast stretches from Livorno to Piombino. A strip of 90 km of beaches, alternating sandy or pebble beach. This region comprises 20% parks and nature reserves. Noteworthy are the Bolgheri WWF Oasis, the Magona Park, Livorno Hill Park, the Rimigliano Park flora and fauna oasis, the Orti-Bottagone oasis and Sterpaia and Montioni parks. For a day at the beach we can particularly recommended Marina di Castagneto Carducci. This is a quiet resort with a beautiful, wide sandy beach, fun for children because the beach is only gradually descending into the the sea. In the afternoon you can have lunch at one of the many beach bars, such as "Bagno La Zattera" or "La Tana del Pirata". Marina di Cecina has a narrow gravel beach and is very busy. The beautiful beaches of the Gulf of Baratti are nearby, therefore a visit to the islands of the Tuscan archipelago with its unspoiled nature and crystal clear waters is also possible. You can find some cool air during a walk in the large pine forests along the coast. Great for kids is "Il Cavallino Matto" on the road to Marina di Castagneto, with a playground and other activities. At Cecina there is Acqua Village Cecina.
The Tuscan hillside landscape begins in the hinterland of the coastal strip. This is a landscape with vineyards, olive groves and farmland. There are many lovely villages that are worth visiting. Two of the most beautiful medieval villages are Bolgheri and Castageto Carducci with small streets, squares, bars and restaurants. Further inland you will find hill villages like Guardistallo, Montescudaio and Casale Marittimo. This region has delicious red and white wines and a very good olive oil. The beautiful Volterra is about a half hour drive. Lucca, Pisa and Siena are all within a range of 100 km.
For those want a more relaxing day: the thermal baths of Venturina with their antique hot and cold water baths are a 30-minute drive from Cecina. A little further you will find the special thermal baths of Saturnia.
You can play golf at Glofclub Tirrenia (Livorno), 9 holes and 36 par. Golf Club Castelfalfi in Montaione has 18 holes, par 73.

It's my belief we're all crazy. I think we have to be to survive without scars.
There is no point in trying to deny the healthy aspects of approaching the game from the other end of the terminal. If you try to play by the rules, someone with a wider perspective will find reason to oust you. Take the limited but keep an ear to the conductor's announcements. There is more to be found at the next stop.
Sun comes up. Sun goes down. That's all you need to remember.
Don't make long term plans, but do listen to the weather report. It's only guesswork.
Seventh son of a seventh son. No reason to think you're blest in any degree.
Meet the regulars. Say hello. Don't give out more information required than enough to get you a seat. It's a long ride and you will grow tired standing. But again, be adaptable. As often as things are capable of change, they probably will. Keep your eyes peeled for an available seat, but if after three stops none becomes available, make your own. Sit on the floor.
Two men walk into a bar. That's a different story.
If the sun doesn't rise tomorrow, forget the preceding and go with Plan B.
Keep watching this space for further updates.
The Man is not on your side. He works alone. Notice his flawless skin? No scars? Think he's sane? Could be He's playing a different game. Maybe, though, He's been playing this one so long, the rules do not apply. Plan B involves living long enough to make your own rules.
Plan C is a combo situation and requires quick stepping back and forth between the previous two. It is inadvisable due to the wear and tear it affords. There is some scarring. There is no Plan D. Best to proceed until a roadblock presents the need to decide; do so rapidly and take another shot. Don't vacillate. There is never much to be gained.
Veterans achieve a measure of immortality but never beyond the measure of the species.
Best to you each morning. Sun comes up. Get dressed. Otherwise, plan your funeral. Don't bother with obituaries. Most people don't read them. And those that do, well, isn't it obvious why they do?
Try spot remover and remember laughter causes lines but it's the least painful course. Listen for the whistle. Have your ticket ready and hop on.
Nobody here but us chickens.

Racing to get the film ready to screen at film festivals at the National Bike Summit in early 2019, we found ourselves in need of more funds! Luckily From the Heart Productions took us on as a fiscally sponsored project, allowing us to offer donors a tax-deduction. I launched a crowdfunding campaign HERE and soon received a challenge from an anonymous donor: he/she would contribute $1000 IF we could raise that much more before 2018 ended.
In order to motivate potential backers I promised to publish one MOTHERLOAD "EXTRA" (an awesome but deleted scene from the film) on each of the final days of 2019. You can watch all three HERE.
It was exhausting but very satisfying to see how well these scenes played as individual pieces, and, it worked! We exceeded the matching challenge and finished out 2019 having raised $8,050!
I will spend the next month in color correction, sound mix and licensing, all the while hoping for good news from festivals.

|Expression and functional profiling reveal distinct gene classes involved in fatty acid metabolism.
|Jennifer J Smith, Yaroslav Sydorskyy, Marcello Marelli, Daehee Hwang, Hamid Bolouri, Richard A Rachubinski, John D Aitchison
|Cells respond to fatty acid exposure by metabolic reorganization and proliferation of peroxisomes. Described here is the development and application of a genome-wide screen to identify nonessential yeast genes necessary for efficient metabolism of myristic and oleic acids. Comparison of the resultant fitness data set with an integrated data set of genes transcriptionally responsive to fatty acids revealed very little overlap between the data sets. Furthermore, the fitness data set enriched for genes involved in peroxisome biogenesis and other processes related to cell morphology, whereas the expression data set enriched for genes related to metabolism. These data suggest that in response to fatty acid exposure, transcriptional control is biased towards metabolic reorganization, and structural changes tend to be controlled post-transcriptionally. They also suggest that fatty acid responsive metabolic networks are more robust than those related to cell structure. Statistical analyses of these and other global data sets suggest that the utilization of distinct control mechanisms for the execution of morphological versus metabolic responses is widespread.

A Scottish university has been forced to rent out buildings at its New York campus for pop-up events to generate much-needed revenue.
Glasgow Caledonian University opened its American venture at a cost of £9.6 million three years ago.
But the GCU New York campus continues to be starved of funding as the university does not yet have a licence to operate in the US and can't enrol students.
It comes at a time when the university is under considerable financial pressures.
According to documents seen by BBC Scotland, GCU recorded a deficit of almost £2.7 million for the 2015/2016 financial year - the first time the university has gone into the red in nine years.
Its annual financial statement is expected to confirm the figure.
It is believed that the university has suffered partly due to a drop in the number of international students because of changes to the student visa programme.
Unions argued that without investment in the loss-making New York venture, the university would still be in the black.
GCU New York was funded by a loan from the main university in Glasgow, of it £5.6 million had been drawn down by the 2014-2015 financial year. The figure rose by a further £4 million the following year.
• READ MORE: Glasgow Caledonian New York Campus has no students
Deputy vice-chancellor of GCU, Professor James Miller, insisted on the BBC's Good Morning Scotland programme that GCU has enjoyed a healthy balance sheet since 2007.
He said: "Over the past nine years Glasgow Caledonian University has made surpluses and that has allowed us to make the investments that we make, not just in our transnational and international ventures but also in relation to the investments that we make here in Glasgow.
"And the £9.6m that was identified for New York is dwarfed entirely by the £32m that we have recently spent in the heart of Glasgow campus, that we've undertaken and completed, so it is a little simplistic to suggest that because we are investing money in New York that we wouldn't have run this deficit this year."
He added: He added: "Of course we are slightly frustrated at the fact that we don't have our licence yet. That sits with the New York State Education Department.
"We are the first university to have gone through this process so that's why it's probably taking longer than we were initially led to believe was the case. But we continue to work with the NYSED."
In the meantime, campus buildings in lower Manhattan have been rented out to raise funds with university logos and flags are believed to be removed for the duration of the events.
It was used by the model Julia Restoin-Roitfeld last weekend for what was publicised as a Le Marche Bleu holiday pop-up shop while the university website suggests Nike and Banana Republic have both previously used its facilities.
GCU New York expects to offer specialist courses in fashion and risk management when it is finally awarded a licence to confer degrees.
There is no indication when this might be with the New York State Education Department stating "no decision has been made" on GCU's application.

Local Name Fields - What Are They?/
"Local Name field" is one of the least commonly used functionality in Salesforce. Some of the users might not be aware of it and its functionality. Although it is not commonly used, it could be considered in your organization for efficiency purposes. Here are some of the advantages of the feature:
- Local Name fields are additional standard fields that allow a translated version of text fields to be manually defined. These fields will remain unchanged even after changing your language. For example, when you changed your organization's language from English to Spanish, these fields will remain in English.
- It helps in categorizing records in order to properly pull them up either via Search or Report. These fields could be used to filter the records for reporting purposes.
- It allows records to have two names. For example: Record A has local name field value of Record B. Whether you search for Record A or Record B, it will still pull up the same record.
Local Name fields are only available under Accounts, Contacts, and Leads; specifically, Account Name, Contact First Name, Contact Last Name, Lead Company Name, Lead First Name, and Lead Last Name.
These fields need to be enabled by Support. If you're interested in maximizing the feature, then feel free to get in touch with Salesforce.com Support. Once the feature is enabled, these fields are not visible by default, and needs to be manually added to the Page Layout and be visible by Field Level Security.
If you have further questions on how to maximize Local Name fields for your organization, feel free to contact us at email@example.com.

JOHN LANDIS, born August 3, 1950, may be well-known as a director of famous Hollywood comedies such as ANIMAL HOUSE and TRADING PLACES, but to me he will always be the director of my all-time favorite werewolf movie, AN AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN LONDON. John has had his share of horror in his career, starting with the low-budget horror satire SCHLOCK, then of course with An American Werewolf In London. John also delved into the music video business by creating possibly one of the best music videos in history, Michael Jackson's THRILLER! John Landis later went on to direct the horror/comedy INNOCENT BLOOD, and let's not forget his entries into the Masters Of Horror series, DEER WOMAN and FAMILY. John is currently filming BURKE AND HARE, a film about the 2 most famous body snatchers in history. John has an incredible knack for mixing horror with comedy, something many have attempted but have failed miserably at. I had the pleasure of meeting and speaking with John Landis last year and Spooky Empire's Weekend Of Horror in Orlando, Florida. He was an absolute riot! He was incredibly friendly and funny, and was definitely a high point for me. In fact, he saw my son Zachary and absolutely fell in love with him, snatched him from me and wouldn't give him back! (check out the pics below, also pictured with Paul Davis, director of the amazing AWIL documentary BEWARE THE MOON). Happy Birthday to one of Hollywood's best, John Landis!

Thursday, June 1st (just a day late)
Today was a LONG day! We started out at 8:30 this morning with the bus and then the subway to get to the Colosseum stop where we walked past the Colosseum and the Roman Forum and then up Capitoline Hill to get to the Capitoline Museum. The museum houses everything from ancient statues, mosaics, paintings by Caravaggio and other painters as well as the remains of Capitoline Hill's once-massive, Temple of Jupiter. We saw the original and oldest known statue of the she-wolf with Romulus and Remus, the symbol of ancient Rome. We also saw the original statue of Marcus Aurelius, the greatest surviving equestrian statue of antiquity, which amazingly was not melted down for its bronze. From the museum there is an amazing view of the Roman Forum (check out pictures under AP Studio Art Work tab). We ended our visit viewing the Capitoline Venus that Nathaniel Hawthorne saw when he was in Italy and supposedly wrote The Marble Faun after seeing. Mark Twain's visit to the Capitoline Museum in 1867 prompted him to write a short story, "The Capitoline Venus," in which he described the statue as the "most illustrious work of ancient art the world can boast of".
After looking at art for nearly 6 hours, I was pretty wiped out. That's why this is coming a little late! Sorry for that. It was a great day, but very overwhelming- an unbelievable amount of all different kinds of work. So after taking a short siesta we went to dinner. I am learning that dinner in Rome means starting dinner at 8 and having it last around 2-3 hours. It's quite a change from Cincinnati standards. No wonder I can't get over my jet lag and keep staying up until 1 or 2 in the morning! I feel like as soon as I adjust to this it is going to be time to come home!
I will see you shortly!

Notwestminster is a free event for everyone who has something positive to say about local democracy and anyone who is up for the challenge of making it better.
If we want a stronger local democracy, we all need to be part of the generation that makes it happen. Notwestminster is about finding the people, ideas and energy we need, so that we can do something practical to improve our local democracy, here and now.
If you're up for the challenge, please join us for two days of workshops, quick-fire talks, practical activities, conversations and inspiration in Huddersfield. Notwestminster is a free event and everyone is welcome to take part. All we ask is that you are interested in making our local democracy better, and willing to do something to make it happen.
Generation D
Democracy is about much more than voting, but we seem increasingly unhappy with the process of how we're governed and how much (or how little) we feel we have a stake in the decisions that affect us.
2018 marks the 100th anniversary of the Representation of the People Act, which first gave 8.5 million women (and all men aged over 21) the opportunity to vote. It is a sorry legacy that in England today only a third of us vote in local elections.
We're told that there may never be another generation that has the "habit of voting". From Catalonia, we hear cries of "No revolution without the grandparents". At home, we hear mixed views from our young citizens about whether there should be votes at 16.
Yet there are things which unite us. We know that people of all ages want (and need) civic and political education. Our distance from democracy is also our distance from each other. That's why strengthening our local democracy is an issue for everyone - and it's something that we can only do together. Democracy needs to work better for everyone, all the time, win or lose.
The future of local democracy starts with us. So let's talk about our democratic generation. Let's talk about our regeneration. But let's not stop at the talking.
Notwestminster workshops & Lightning talks
We are accepting ideas for our Saturday workshops now. These lively discussion sessions, all led by our participants, are at the heart of our main event. We'd like to hear your workshop ideas for any of these broad themes:
- Democracy - any aspect of strengthening local democracy
- Dialogue - ways of creating connections between people
- Doing - anything practical that participants can get involved in
- Digital - ideas for using digital technologies to help democracy
- Decisions - ways of creating good decision-making
- Data - ideas for using data to support local democracy
- Different - any ideas, in any workshop format, are welcome
Our main event also includes a series of lightning talks to give you different perspectives on local democracy. The day will close with an Ideas Bazaar where you can sign up to work on some of the ideas, and drinks whilst you talk with other participants.
We think that the stronger local democracy we all want and deserve could be just around the corner. And we don't need a tardis to get there. We just need each other.
Will you be part of Generation D?

___________________________________________________________ Ghost Hunting Events in Cambridgeshire, Norfolk, Suffolk, Bedfordshire & Hertfordshire
Huntingdon Town Hall is located on the South side of Market Hill and dates back to 1745, built on the site of an earlier Court Hall. Alterations were carried out and the Town Hall was enlarged during 1817 and is now a building of three stories with an impressive Assembly Room at the top, containing huge paintings of King George II and III and other celebrities. This room became the social centre for the county and has seen many festivities and is often referred to as the Ballroom. The Ground floor is where the Court Rooms and Cells for the prisoners can be found.
Since Huntingdon Town Council have had ownership of the building, further restoration and refurbishment has been carried out to bring the Court House back to its former glory. Many original features have been brought back to life, however since two of the cells were knocked through into one larger room, It is said that, staff and visitors have witnessed a multitude of paranormal activity. Strange noises are heard, cold spots are frequently noticed and some visitors have felt unwell upon entering the building and have had to leave.
With the medieval superstition of Witches and Witchcraft still lingering in Huntingdon, with victims forced to make false confessions due to the appalling ignorance of the times, are the poor unfortunate souls of those cruelly executed still lingering within the walls of the Town Hall? Join our Ghost Hunt and take part in our extreme vigils in the Cells, as we take you back in time to uncover the true tale of the Witches of Warboys and bring justice to light.

Dear all,
I am using Citavi for several years and the knowledge management functionality is simply great! The best I could imagine. However, when it comes to publishing and the necessary final formating (reference/bibliography styles) the Citavi solution is simply not useful. I used it onces, but nowadays I switched back to manual management of citations in texts (all the boring manual stuff such as citation formating, creating the bibliography). Why is that?
1. Using the citavi tags simply does not say anything to co-authors with which I exchange the text (sometimes I get myself confused, as the short tagnames do not always reveal a unique entry, which is why I need to go back to citavi to check which entry it is).
2. There is no such as a clearcut 2 phase publication process, with a first step of writing and a second step of formatting. In reality, it is an iterative process where after the final formating some reediting occurs, maybe another, unforseen loop with a co-author, etc. where more references are added. Thus, in the end, I still need to do manual steps.
3. This is the most important one. Publications are not singular pieces without history and future. In reality, I use an old publication (or an article which was not successfully published), change it, advance it, etc. and try to publish it again. That means, however, that there are no tags any more in the text (as it was already intended to be published earlier), and the link to the citavi database has been lost. I would need to replace all citations again with tags, a task which - at least for myself - is not practical. In summary, when I extend prior texts for future publications, I cannot work with the citavi tag system at all.
These reasons all let to my decision to simply cite manually, which is, however, unsatisfactory, given the powerful citavi database in the background.
I do not understand why Citavi does not offer the same type of intext citation management as the software Endnote does. Using dynamic database fields which can be changed in format using realtime is cleary the preffered mode. This also allows for publishing articles whilst keeping all dynamic references to the database and, thus, allows for future continuation of the work on the text.
Thank you for your support.

New York Gov. Cuomo has ordered investigations and new rules to ensure more protections for workers in nail salons. Nail salons are required to pay workers back wages and take certain measures to protect their workers' health. Salons will be required to publicly post signs in multiple languages to properly inform workers' of their rights. Protective measures for the health of these employees' should include proper ventilation and use of gloves and masks. Experts believe that the exploitation of manicurists has exposed them to serious health hazards on the job as well as wage theft.

Chris Froome lays down marker with stage victory in hills of Oman
Chris Froome has won the fifth stage of the Tour of Oman and extended his overall lead with one day of the race remaining.
Although the Middle Eastern tour is a relatively minor event on the cycling calendar, the Team Sky rider has laid down important markers for the season with the manner in which he has fought off his rivals - notably Alberto Contador and Cadel Evans, both recent Tour de France champions - on two genuinely tough uphill stages.
Today's 144-kilometre race finished with three ascents of the Bousher Alamrat climb, shattering the peloton and leaving Froome in a scrap between the ten or so climbers who had been able to cope with the average 10 per cent gradient.
Contador attacked repeatedly throughout…

NEW YORK (CBS.MW) - American Express shares fell Tuesday, a day after the company reported lower than expected earnings as its travel business slowed, and consumers held tighter to their credit cards in the wake of the September 11 terrorist attacks.
In early trading Tuesday, the company's shares fell 11 cents, or 0.2 percent to $30.21.
The consumer finance giant American Express AXP, +1.84% said Monday that its third quarter earnings fell 59 percent .
The company posted earnings of 22 cents per share, including the effects of a $352 million restructuring charge, and a $98 million charge related to the September 11 terrorist attacks on New York and Washington.
The 22 cents per share amount, however, excludes an additional charge of $42 million due to the attacks that the company said it expects to be reimbursed by its insurance companies. Part of that charge includes relocation expenses for staff after the firm's headquarters was damaged in the September 11 attack in lower Manhattan.
According to Thomson Financial/First Call, which compiles consensus analyst estimates, Wall Street expected the company to earn 30 cents per share, including the restructuring and $98 million September 11-related charge.
"While we were on target to meet prior consensus for third quarter earnings, the terrorist attacks obviously had a significant impact on the overall economy and we saw clear evidence of that as consumer spending, business travel and investment activity slowed after September 11th," said Kenneth I. Chenault, chairman and chief executive officer at American Express.
The third quarter's $232 million, after-tax restructuring charge includes severance costs for about 6,100 jobs and other costs. The firm said its Travel Related Services (TRS) unit had a net income of $248 million, a 51 percept drop from last year's $507 million.
It said TRS results also included $57 million of after tax charges resulting directly from the September 11 attacks and related to one-time costs and loss of late fees waived after the attacks.
Minus the charges, the unit's would have fallen 15 percent, to $432 million, the company said.
TRS net revenue rose 2 percent.
Significantly, the company said the TRS unit's provision for loan losses grew "as a result of higher volumes and an increase in lending write off rates and delinquencies." And at the same time, the unit's operating costs rose.
American Express Financial Advisors reported quarterly net income of $145 million, down 46 percent from $269 million in the third quarter a year ago.
The unit's net revenue fell 14 percent, and included $41 million, after tax, of the above-mentioned charges.
"Financial Advisers' results reflect continued weakness in equity markets and narrower spreads on the investment portfolio. The weakened equity markets led to significantly lower asset levels and lower sales of investment products. As a result, management and distribution fees fell 15 percent," the company said in its earnings release.
The firm said American Express Bank lost $43 million in the quarter, compared to a $7 million profit a year ago.
American Express AXP, +1.84% shares rose $1, or 3.4 percent, to $30.32 on Monday.

Each week, I am publishing a part in a series about ME/CFS. This is Part IV, in which I discuss the prejudices faced by ME/CFS sufferers, and its problematic name (which may or may not be as bad as crapweeds and stenchblossoms). You can find links to the other posts in the series at the bottom of this post.
Last week, I explored the limited treatment options available to ME/CFS sufferers. This week, I will explain what causes said lack of options, namely, prejudices held by the medical community and its problematic nomenclature.

A community hoping to stage a buyout of a small island has been awarded up to £4.4 million funding to help them make an offer.
North West Mull Community Woodland Company (NWMCWC) hopes to buy the Ulva Estate, valued at £4.2million, which spans 2,000 hectares and includes the Isle of Ulva as well as some land on nearby Mull.
If it also wishes to buy Ardulum House on Ulva the cost would be around £4.5 million.
The Scottish Land Fund (SLF) has announced an award of up to £4,415,200 to enable the community to open negotiations for the purchase.
The community has said its main priority is to attract new residents to the island, where only six people currently live.
READ MORE: Isle of Ulva landowner criticises community buyout plans
NWMCWC, the first group to register interest in an island under the Scottish Government's Community Right to Buy legislation, now has until June 9 to agree terms with the current owner and complete the sale.
Colin Morrison, chairman of NWMCWC, said: "This award from the Scottish Land Fund is hugely significant, not only for Ulva but also more broadly for North West Mull.
"Our top priority is to renovate the existing buildings and provide secure leases for present and new residents and businesses.
"We aim to have 20 or more people living on Ulva within two or three years, rising to as many as 50 or more in time as new houses are built. Social and economic development of Ulva will bring benefits to the neighbouring communities on Mull.
"Schools, shops, local services and industry will all receive a boost from the increased population and also from the increased number of visitors we are confident we shall see once accommodation and facilities are provided for them on the island."
In December, following an independent ballot of 401 voters in north-west Mull, almost 64% of people were in favour of the community buyout.
SLF is funded by the Scottish Government and delivered in partnership by the Big Lottery Fund and Highlands and Islands Enterprise.
Environment Secretary Roseanna Cunningham said: "Today's award should provide the NW Mull Community Woodland Company with the means to make a fair and serious offer for the island.
"This is further demonstration of the Scottish Government's commitment to empowering communities via land reform - enabling them to determine their own futures.
"If the purchase is successful, then I'm sure that the people of Ulva, and its surrounding area, will reap the benefits of community ownership for years to come."
Highlands and Island Enterprise, previously awarded NWMCWC £23,363 to investigate the purchase and advised them on their SLF application.

Nearest Station: Camden Town Station ( Northern Line Underground)
In heart of Camden Market, the creative Chin Chin Labs, where ice-cream is frozen to order among rising clouds of liquid nitrogen-generated steam. There are always new tourists visiting and plenty of regulars queuing for this fabulous ice-cream. The Hot chocolate is one of their latest addition from their menu.
Toasted Gooey Marshmallow Hot Chocolate £3.90
This soft, gooey marshmallow looking hot chocolate is the one to go for if you ever visit Chin Chin Labs.
This probably has been the most Instagrammed image among the other desserts, which there have to offer at their laboratory.
The other item we ordered was brownie cookie sandwich with vanilla ice cream for my brother-in-law and couple warm brownie cookie, ice cream, molten chocolate for my nephews. Both of those were pretty decent, but my mind was always to go for the hot chocolate as soon as I arrived at Chin Chin Lab.
If you ever wanted to see how these delicious marshmallows hot chocolates made at Chin Chin Labs, now is your chance to see above or you can always head over to my Instagram to see more mouth-watering and great photography pictures.
This little laboratory based in Camden is totally worth checking out, there is also other street food around the area, so not only would it be worthwhile but you will have a chance to explore other places. I would highly recommend
I would highly recommend checking out Oli Baba's around the corner from Chin Chin.
Much appreciated for reading my blog post.
