I call this "the orgasm wand" because it is. It really, really is. Combined with a vibrator on my clit, it produces powerful orgasms. Easily one of my all time favorite toys!
Having only achieved my first hands free Prostate release a bit earlier with a different product (Luxe touch sensitive vibrator), I attempted for a similar success with the Pure Wand. Started out with the small end and once warmed up, switched over to the larger side. Being somewhat new to these experiences, it did not happen quickly, but it did definitely happen. After about 10-15 minutes of finding the right frequency and angle, the release occurred. I won't get too graphic, but the release from the prostate massage was so voluminous, that for a second I thought I might have accidentally stimulated my bladder and urinated on myself. On Inspection, I quickly realized that this is not what happened and it was indeed just an amazing release. This may not have been the first product I achieved hands free release with, but to date it is the one with the most intense experience.
When it arrived, I took the Pure Wand for a test drive by myself and thought it was pretty good. But then my lover came over and we played for hours with it. I don't think I've ever come so many times in a single session. I could not get enough and my lover enjoyed making me come over and over again. I don't normally ejaculate, but this thing had me gushing everywhere. I even managed to spray myself in the face with my own juices. Don't ask how. This was definitely a good purchase. As my lover said, "Watch out, it's addictive!"
I bought this after reading review after review about non squirters finally ejaculating so I HAD to give it a try. I had yet to gush. I love the curve, without much labor this bad boi hits my g spot in such an amazing way. Temperature play is amazing with this toy. Very easy to warm or cool in water and very smooth. I love using my silicone lube with this one. I can have orgasm after orgasm without the toy getting draggy. The weight feels great too. A+
We received the Pure Wand recently as a gift and I've been meaning to give it a go, so I reached under the bed for the box, opened it, and removed the contents. The Njoy Pure Wand is a stainless steel, double-ended dildo, and it comes in a stunning, durable storage box with a satin lining. Even being about 65�F in the bedroom, the dildo was still pretty frigid and cool to the touch. This may sound terrible to some, but I love using cold elements like frozen popsicles and ice during sex, so I couldn�t wait to see how it would feel.
So the Pure Wand is about 11� curved from end to end, has one large �bulb� on one end, and a smaller one on the other. It weighs 1.5 pounds so it�s got quite a bit of heft, which is nice � I�ll tell you why later. I decided to tease my clit with the small end, so I slid it up and down the length of my vulva hanging onto the other end comfortably with one hand. I put the whole dildo between my thighs, turned onto my side, and gently rocked against it because it�s sturdy and long enough to be used hands-free. The combination of doing all of this while watching porn had me wet in no time. I didn�t want it to get warm, so I removed it from between my thighs and set it aside to cool off again while I switched to another video.
I held the dildo by the smaller end this time. I rubbed the large bulb against my clit, and between the weight, shape, and sexy, slick surface of it, it seemed to fall perfectly within my slit so I could slide it up and down without having to guide it. After gliding it around until it drew my juices to the surface, I eventually allowed it to find my opening. Because of the substantial heft of it, it was as if my vagina was thick quicksand where the gravitational pull combined with how wet I was forced it to slowly plunge deeper inside me, cooling me from the inside an inch at a time. The cold metal felt amazing and I loved how I could feel exactly where the bulbous end was inside me just because of the chilled surface. The Pure Wand is shaped absolutely perfectly because the big bulb seemed to �catch� on a bit of a corner right where my G-spot should be. Also because it�s pretty long, it reached up to my clit where I could rub the shaft there, or I could just use the other end as a handle for penetration and not involve my clit. I kept gently penetrating myself and occasionally pulled the dildo out of me and dragged it up across my clit � one of my favorite things to do as it gives an amazing sensation.
Since I'm going to run out of characters, you can find the rest of the review here:
In short - do not walk, run to Good Vibes for the Njoy Pure Wand, it will change your life. No joke.
The first time I used this toy on my girlfriend was after a nice long sensual massage. I lubed her up and slowly inserted it in her vagina after warming it in my hands. I had the ball pointing up. Switched to one or the other ball but not sure which one did the trick for her. Anyways, I rocked it gently in and out concentrating on keeping the ball riding along her Gspot. She squirted for the first time and it was amazing! Next time I'm trying it with her on all fours as the weight of it should facilitate the rocking motion quite nicely!!
The large end is painful to insert initially because of the shape. I find myself not wanting to use it. I do like the metal because it does not need much lube and does not cause any irritation or friction.
So, I've never been one to spend a lot on sex toys. But after trying this out with a partner, I had to have it. It hits your g spot just perfectly, every single time. You don't even need to move it around much (thus saving you carpal tunnel), just the weight and size of the toy alone, when inserted, gives exactly the right amount of pressure. But if you do want more, moving it in a back and forth motion will do the job.
The sleek metal warms to body temperature quickly, making this toy a joy to use. And because it's so slippery in it's very nature, I don't even need lube. The orgasms I have while using this toy are simply mindblowing. Earth shattering.
Best money I ever spent.
This toy usually stays really close to the bed. The prostate massages it gives are incredible. Its curve makes it really easy for me to use by myself, or for my girlfriend to use while she gives me oral.
Other times I will use it on her. The first time I used this toy on her was also the first time she squirted. Sometimes she begs for it, "Honey, will you use the hook on me?" Its weight and balance is perfect, and its shape makes it very comfortable. It feels like it fits my body perfectly. The first time you hold one of these in your hand you'll understand. Just holding provides this tactile pleasure. I never would have thought steel would feel so soft and warm.
It's made of the highest quality stainless steel, right in my home state of Massachusetts! Super easy to clean, plus it's beautiful! Like a work of art.
I thought this whole squirting thing just wasnt for me. I tried, he tried, just couldnt get it so I gave up. I purchased this toy as my 40th birthday present. Just got the nerve up to try it, wet my sheets up the first time. Tried it again the next day just to see if it was a fluke...same wet results! I sat straight up and just let the curve of the toy follow the natural path to my g spot, had my bullet on my clit. Super Soaker city!

I am just wondering if anyone here knows of a good free source code file to HTML "converter" like program.
incase this sounds weird to you, I will tell you what I mean.
I am looking for something that can input a C or C++ source file into that will output an HTML version of the file. this HTML version would highlight things like keywords with the same color MSVC++ highlights them with (blue), and perform related enhancing of the source code to make it look just like it would in the MSVC editor.
I know I could do this manually, but I don't know much HTML, and even if I did it would be a tedious task with large programs. I also know that I could write my own program to do this, but that would be hard with my basic knowledge of HTML.
I'm sure some people here have used something like this before, and some may have even wrote their own. could anyone please recommend one of these for me?
thank you in advance.

No. 82,142
LARRY FREDERKING and KAREN MEYER,
RONALD D. FREDERKING a/k/a RONALD FREDERKING,
HELENE LEESA FREDERKING and RUSSELL FREDERKING,
When depositions are utilized by a trial court in deciding a summary judgment motion, the stenographic charges for taking those depositions may be taxed as costs as being "used as evidence" pursuant to K.S.A. 1998 Supp. 60-2003(5).
Appeal from Lincoln District Court; THOMAS M. TUGGLE, judge. Opinion filed November 24, 1999. Affirmed.
Ron Svaty, of Svaty, Sherman & Hoffman, L.L.C., of Ellsworth, and Larry E. Keenan, of Keenan & Boeckman Law Firm, P.A., of Great Bend, for appellants.
Larry G. Michel, of Kennedy Berkley Yarnevich & Williamson, Chartered, of Salina, for appellees.
Before ELLIOTT, P.J., TOM MALONE, District Judge, and PATRICK D. McANANY, District Judge, assigned.
ELLIOTT, J.: Appellants appeal the award of costs following an award of summary judgment in favor of appellees.
We affirm.
Appellants first argue the award of costs is premature because the merits are currently on appeal to this court; they cite no case law nor supporting authority for this contention. A review of the statutes indicates the legislature contemplated an award of costs to occur directly following a final order of the trial court. See K.S.A. 60-2004 (indicating payment of costs does not constitute acquiescence in the judgment so as to prevent an appeal).
Appellants also argue the trial court erred in including the stenographic charges of depositions in the award of costs to appellees. Stenographic charges for the taking of depositions may be taxed as costs where the depositions were "used as evidence." K.S.A. 1998 Supp. 60-2003(5). Appellants claim the depositions were not used as evidence.
The trial court held the depositions were used as evidence in determining the motion for summary judgment and "served the same purpose as the deponents' testimony or deposition transcripts would have served at trial."
Appellants' reliance on Bridges v. Bentley, 244 Kan. 434, 445-46, 769 P.2d 635 (1989), and Wood v. Gautier, 201 Kan. 74, 78-79, 439 P.2d 73 (1968), is misplaced. Both of those cases involved the use of depositions at trial, but the depositions were not admitted into evidence. Those courts held the costs of those depositions could not be taxed as costs.
Here, the trial court did not abuse its discretion in distinguishing the present situation because the depositions were used as evidence by the trial court in deciding the summary judgment motion.

'Global ocean sprawl' may boost jellyfish
Building bloom The proliferation of artificial structures in coastal regions may be contributing to an increase in jellyfish blooms blooms in these areas, say scientists.
The international team of scientists led Professor Carlos Duarte, director of the Oceans Institute at the University of Western Australia found that artificial structures provide the ideal habitat for the polyp stage of many jellyfish to flourish.
"We call this new proposition the 'Trojan Horse' hypothesis," says Duarte.
"The proliferation of artificial structures such as harbours, shipping facilities and aquaculture structures provides a habitat for jellyfish polyps and may be an important driver in explaining the global increase in jellyfish blooms," he says.
The scientists say their findings have implications for coastal planning, with the need to design coastal structures, manage harbour environments, and regulate garbage disposal to reduce suitable habitats for polyp growth.
They surveyed coastal locations from around the world over 20 years and found jellyfish polyps thriving in their millions on the underside of structures such as piers, artificial reefs, buoys, and fish pens.
"Jellyfish polyps existed on the underside of such artificial structures at densities of more than 10,000 individuals per square metre, and sometimes up to 100,000 per square metre," says Duarte.
In some areas, years of surveys revealed no polyps until a new artificial structure was deployed, they report in the journal Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment .
"Polyps were found in high densities on artificial surfaces in harbours, suggesting they could be massive sites of potential release of ephyrae," the researchers say.
Artificial V natural surfaces
The researchers also conducted experiments on two types of jellyfish C quinquecirrha found in Chesapeake Bay in US, and C tuerculata found in the Mediterranean sea.
They examined how larvae from these jellyfish settled on oyster shells, flagstones and 16 other surfaces including bricks, ropes, wood, concrete and plastic.
They found that settlement on artificial surfaces such as glass, plastic and bricks were higher than natural substances, particularly when the surfaces were placed close together to prevent attack from predators or in the dark.
The researchers say the 'global ocean sprawl' of artificial structures is particularly critical in areas such as the Gulf of Mexico, southeast coast of South America and the Yellow and East China Sea, where natural hard surfaces are scarce.
The giant Nomura jellyfish (Nemopilema nomurai) in South East Asia has seen the most dramatic rise. While the habitat of these jellyfish is largely unknown, the area in which they inhabit is experiencing the fastest growth in aquaculture and shipping in the world, say the scientists.

Grants Support Effort to Build New Callier Autism Center
Hoblitzelle, Hillcrest Foundations Each Contribute $300,000 Toward New Facility
Apr. 9, 2012
The new UT Dallas Callier Autism Center will be a 7,000-square-foot facility adjacent to the current Callier Center building.
The Hoblitzelle Foundation and the Hillcrest Foundation each contributed $300,000 to the construction project. The plan involves renovating and expanding the UT Dallas Callier Center for Communication Disorders, one of the nation's top clinical, educational and research facilities for children and adults with speech, language and hearing problems. As part of the School of Behavioral and Brain Sciences, Callier has provided group and individual therapy for patients and families touched by autism for more than 30 years.

"UT Dallas benefits greatly from the support of local foundations, which provide critical funds and leadership for vital initiatives," said UT Dallas President David E. Daniel. "This grant will allow the Callier Center to build new research and treatment facilities as part of their autism research center."
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control recently estimated one of every 88 children in the U.S. will be diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), which encompasses autism and related disorders. ASD negatively affects communication, social interaction and learning.
The Hoblitzelle Foundation first provided a $300,000 grant to support the new Callier Autism Center, with the stipulation that Callier must find a donor or donors to match that amount. The Hillcrest Foundation then came forward with its own matching $300,000 grant to Callier.
The Callier Center's executive director and Sara T. Martineau Professor, Dr. Tom Campbell, said the gifts will provide vital funding for a major new effort to improve diagnosis and treatment for the myriad challenges faced by individuals or parents affected by ASD.
"This project will allow the Callier Center to serve a larger number of individuals with autism in a more effective way and to expand the programs now available to these patients and their families," he said. "The space will mirror our three-fold mission at Callier, by providing room for additional training and research efforts beyond clinical services."
Callier researchers and clinicians collaborate on a variety of projects with faculty members and physicians at UT Southwestern Medical Center and Children's Medical Center.
Dr. Thomas Campbell
The building project at Callier will include a new 7,000-square-foot facility adjacent to the current building, and renovation to portions of the existing facilities. This will produce expanded space for ASD programs, and better configuration for ASD learning environments. Also included in the plan is a new entry and reception area to improve patient and visitor access, as well as a new treatment and research facility.
The Hoblitzelle Foundation helped establish UT Dallas 40 years ago by donating almost 300 acres of land. It has repeatedly contributed to the University in the years since then. The foundation was created in 1942 by Karl and Esther Hoblitzelle to provide grants for educational, medical and cultural organizations.
The Hillcrest Foundation of Dallas was founded in 1957 by Mrs. W. W. Caruth Sr. to support the advancement of education, the promotion of health and the relief of poverty in Texas. Hillcrest has funded a wide variety of educational and research projects at UT Dallas.

Apple smart cover patent would give the iPad secondary display
Last year, Apple filed an application with the US Patent and Trademark Office that the USPTO today made available to the public. The patent is for a beefed-up Smart Cover that would feature a small, flexible, secondary display in one or more panels of the smart cover to augment the display (room for extra icons), control media content on the iPad, or display notifications.
One of the patent drawings shows the full inner section of the Smart Cover being used as a keyboard, similar to Microsoft's Surface case concept they unveiled in June. Apple's Smart Cover would be a virtual keyboard as opposed to Microsoft's hardware keyboard case, but the end result is the same; freed up real estate so you have more room to see whatever it is that you're working on.
As with all patent filings, Apple's dream for a new Smart Cover may never come to fruition, and time will tell if such a model is ever released to the general public.

"It's just funny how this business is," the 30-year-old linebacker said amid the bustle of packing for a road trip. "You never know what opportunity may be in front of you. When an opportunity comes up, you really have to take advantage.
D'Qwell Jackson hasn't got time for the pain.
He says he "doesn't really remember anything about the game," the one the Browns lost at Cincinnati in 2007 to cost them a playoff berth.
He is no longer tortured by losing 26 consecutive games to freak injuries.
The captain of the Browns' No. 5-ranked defense basks in anticipation of the latest visit to the Ohio River.
"It's just funny how this business is," the 30-year-old linebacker said amid the bustle of packing for a road trip. "You never know what opportunity may be in front of you. When an opportunity comes up, you really have to take advantage.
"This is an opportunity."
If the Browns beat the AFC North-leading Bengals, they will be a half-game out of sharing first place. Beating Cincinnati on Sunday and Pittsburgh a week later would guarantee a share of the top spot, with the Bengals heading into their bye week.
Both Cleveland and Cincinnati would be 6-5, but the Browns would win a tie-breaker, having defeated the Bengals twice.
Jackson was a second-year Brown when the team went to Cincinnati on Dec. 23, 2007, with a chance to clinch a playoff spot.
"What I remember about that day," Jackson said, "is sitting in the locker room after the game, thinking about the opportunity we could have had that day, and we didn't get it accomplished."
The Browns dug a 16-0 hole and wound up losing 19-14. They won the next week to finish at 10-6, but tie-breaker quirks washed them out of the postseason.
"It was my first time in the NFL of feeling that way," Jackson said.
"And it was the last time ... to be in that position at that point of the season.
"I knew the importance of the game going in. I understood it better when the game was over."
The next time Jackson went to Cincinnati, the Browns were trying to save a new season. They had become an NFL item, with five national TV games scheduled for 2008, but they tanked out of the gate, losing their first three.
Then they won 20-12 at Cincinnati before beating the defending Super Bowl champion Giants on a Monday night.
The revival ended there. They plunged out of contention, finished 4-12, and continued on through dreadful years.
Jackson fell into the darkest period of his career. He went through a divorce. He lost most of the 2009 season to pectoral surgery, then missed all of 2010 following, believe it or not, pectoral surgery on the other side of his upper body.
These years later, having played in 41 consecutive games, Jackson can laugh about knockdown punches from which he has recovered.
"I still feel good," he said. "My legs feel fresh. From those two years I was out, I feel like I gain something now."
He seems not to have lost the hunger that persuaded then-general manager Phil Savage to make a draft trade to get him.
Savage feared he would lose Jackson if he didn't trade up in the second round in 2006. He sent former first-round pick Jeff Faine to Tampa Bay in exchange for a No. 34 overall pick, spent on the linebacker out of Maryland.
Time flew. Jackson has persevered to see another season that could become relevant. He has been among NFL leaders in tackles all season, and he anchors a defense that, in the expansion era, never has ranked this high this late.
He won't go so far as to say the defense can carry the Browns to the playoffs.
"We're not good enough for one side to be completely better than the other," he said. "Nowadays, you've got to be good on both sides of this ball in order to get where you want to get.
"Yeah, we want to be the strong part of this team, but we've got playmakers on that side of the ball."
Ask him if he is playing his best football, and Jackson shakes his head subtly.
"I don't think so," he said. "The guys in front of me make my job a lot easier, but I don't think I've had that year where I impress myself.
"I put a lot on myself. I feel like I have a lot more to give."
Given where the Browns find themselves, these years after Jackson lamented that 2007 moment in Cincinnati, he understands full well.
There would be no better time to deliver his best.

Recently, the staff at an acquaintance's office got in a discussion over whether cheesecake is indeed a cake (just look at the name!), or a pie (it's got a crust!). The discussion became a heated debate, such to the point that they phoned a major cheesecake company's headquarters to find the answer (cake).
Mystery having been solved, we set out to find more about this silky, indulgent treat; who better to turn to than The Confectional, the Pike Place Market purveyor of creatively flavored full-size and mini cheesecakes, as well as adorable chocolate-covered cheesecake truffles? In a recent interview with owner Paul Verano, we learned about what makes a cheesecake great, regional cheesecake preferences, and even got a cheesecake confession:
Cakespy: So. You are part Colombian, living in Seattle, with a cheesecake shop that was realized in Wellington, New Zealand. This all sounds very cosmopolitan! Can you fill in the blanks on how you got started?
Paul Verano: I was born in the US, but lived in Colombia as a child. I've been a baker since I was four years old, well actually my first 'baking' was a no-bake cookie, but that seriously set the ball in motion and I was immediately into the oven with the next thing. In college I would bake massive rich chocolaty cakes that my friends fawned over. I tried out cheesecakes and came up with my Cookies and Mint Chocolate cheesecake straight away. This is on my menu today and remains my all time personal favorite flavor.
For the next several years I would take my cheesecakes to parties and they proved to be extremely popular. Several friends started ordering them for their own parties and for weddings. Eventually, when my partner and I were living in New Zealand our friends there pretty much pushed/encouraged me further than anyone had before into opening a business.
So my first store was in Wellington, New Zealand. We opened in May of 2004. It was delivery only back then. Here in Seattle we opened our first storefront in December of 2006. We are about to celebrate our one-year anniversary in the Pike Place Market.
CS: What made you decide to locate in the Pike Place Market?
PV: When we moved back to Seattle a friend who knows Kurt Dammeier of Beechers, Bennett's Restaurant, etc. suggested we sit down with him and discuss the possibilities of opening a store in Seattle. He immediately loved my product and after our first meeting said we had to look into the Pike Place Market as it would be the perfect venue for my cheesecakes. My partner and I left that meeting and walked across the street to the Pike Place Market offices. On the rental board was a space available which is now our 490 square-foot store. It was very karmic and I'm very happy with how it all transpired.
CS: Do you ever barter lunch for cheesecake with your neighbor vendors?
PV: Absolutely! One of the great things about working in the market is that most vendors will trade or at least have a 'market discount', as we do. The community in the Pike Place Market is fantastic. There is a bit of competitiveness for some vendors, but for the most part everyone is excited to help everyone else out. We are asked constantly where the best of this is, or best of that is. "Where's the first Starbucks?" is the most asked question.
CS: You're called "the Confectional", a clever take on "The Confessional". Do you have any cheesecake confessions to share with us?
PV: Hmmm. A cheesecake confession of my own...well...yes. I actually like the batter of my cheesecakes more than the baked product. But isn't that true for cookie and cake batter, too? You just can't sit down and serve a batch of batter for dessert, now can you? But oh, don't tempt me. I've been known to blow people away with unexpected desserts. Oh, and I can't suggest enough, if you're up to it, warming up my cheesecakes (oven or microwave) and serving them with your favorite ice cream. Oh my word.
CS: We imagine that you get quite a few out of town visitors. Have you noticed any trends in cheesecake preference for people from different parts of the world?
PV: The biggest trend was fully expected after having such a great 'test market' in New Zealand. It's that our most popular flavor is the Raspberry White Chocolate. It's the most popular by DOUBLE the next flavor! For some reason the Kahlua White Chocolate seems to be very popular with the Asian community. And southern Americans often ask where the Amaretto Cheesecake is, (and clearly it's pronounced Ameretta in the south...I love it!). Really, all our cheesecakes seem to sell equally. The only other thing I'll say is that most people that approach our display case are enamored with our 12 main flavors, plus seasonal flavors, and can have a difficult time choosing which one to get. It's amazing how often someone will get an extra cheesecake flavor to try later... a good problem to have!
CS: Where do you get your recipes?
PV: I have created all of my recipes, sometimes from suggestions of flavors and following a hunch and working it out. My cheesecake truffles were invented in my home kitchen just two weeks before opening the store and have proven to be extraordinarily popular, and are pretty much to-die-for. There's also my Colombian Hot Chocolate. A thick European-style drinking chocolate that is designed after my Grandmother's recipe. In Colombia the hot chocolate is about as thin as water, but in my store I get to decide how thick the chocolate is, and I just don't mess around. Not too overpowering, but enough to remind you that chocolate can be a serious happy-inducing pill. We start with melted dark chocolate, organic whole milk, and like my Grandmother's, I have a bit of Colombian coffee and just a hint of her signature spices.
CS: Have there been any great cheesecakes in your past that have inspired your baking efforts?
PV: While there are many incredible cheesecakes, cheesecake makers and cheesecake styles, I find that my personal favorites are the ones that are absolutely naked and most simple. That's why there are three ingredients in my base. As simple as it gets. Then adding the flavors to 'dress them up' is all about balance. It's chemistry at it's tastiest. I'm not sure I have an inspiration from somewhere else. So many recipes are just too sweet. We have a much lower amount of sugar in our recipes than most that I've seen/tasted.
CS: Would you say that your cheesecakes are "New York" style, or "Italian" style? Or something else?
PV: We are closest to a "New York-Style" cheesecake, but I go for a slightly denser, in-your-face version. In fact we call our New York-Style a "Seattle's New York-Style"...that is to say that we Seattleites often consider ourselves a bit 'heartier' than New Yorkers. More rugged in the Northwest, eh? And our crust is a bit of heaven. We use Maria Biscuits from Spain, which make a beautiful crust. Most graham crackers have partially hydrogenated oil, and again we try to keep it as pure a product as we can. Maria biscuits are very simple, elegant and make a great crunchy crust.
CS: What is the most important aspect in making a great cheesecake?
PV: Keep it simple. As pure as you can. Do not over or under mix. And love making it. If you love the making and the baking and pay special attention to detail, they'll taste it!
CS: What is your most popular flavor at the shop?
PV: Raspberry White Chocolate--although, our holiday flavors are definitely winning right now! Those are Pumpkin and the Cranberry White Chocolate...with a hint of Cardamom.
CS: What is your personal favorite flavor?
PV: Cookies and Mint Chocolate, but whenever I taste one of the others I get a little bit giddy because they are all so good! My other top favorites are actually our 'richest' cheesecakes, the Coconut Cherry Chocolate, Peanut Butter and Chocolate and the Quadruple Chocolate. See a trend there? Everyone has a different favorite. All our staff have their own faves and are asked often enough that we've listed their favorites on each sign in the display case.
CS: Some people are scared of cheesecake because it is "fattening". Any response to this?
PV: Indeed. For some people it's a viscosity issue and they will simply NEVER like cheesecake. We've actually converted some of these people and now have loyal fans that wouldn't dream of eating a cheesecake before. As for fattening: there's a lot of concern about carb counting vs. fat, etc. What I can tell you is we have a very reasonable sized individual serving that's completely satisfying. That alone is a saving grace, and without consuming a giant American-sized portion of a so-so product. On top of that our Raspberry White Chocolate cheesecake is about 320 calories, which is far less than most of our customers guess. Some flavors a good bit less, and others a bit more calories. I like to remind people that if they're that worried about 320 calories, then after you eat it, go for a brisk walk for 20 minutes, or enjoy the Pike Place Market for an hour, and it's pretty much null and void, no?
CS: In your opinion, what is the best beverage accompaniment for cheesecake?
PV: Coffee, espresso, Earl Grey tea, and if you're enjoying our Mochaccino cheesecake, a nice, full-bodied red is something else. Oh, or a fine chocolate port on the side or drizzled right on our Seattle's New York-Style cheesecake. Whew!
CS: What is next for The Confectional?
PV: Our next goal, after getting through our first full holiday season in the Pike Place Market, will be to work toward opening a commissary baking space, as well as a second location.
The Confectional is located at 1530 Pike Place, in the Pike Place Market (not far from that first Starbucks). For more information, visit theconfectional.com.

ROWLETT, Texas, Feb. 13 (UPI) -- A Texas middle school teacher has been placed on leave after a lasso lesson gone wrong left a seventh-grader with rope marks around his neck.
Garland Independent School District spokesman Chris Moore said the teacher, whose name was not released, was teaching a lesson on cowboys at Schrade Middle School in Rowlett when he asked for student volunteers to run around while he attempted to lasso them, WFFA-TV, Dallas/Fort Worth, reported Wednesday.
Moore said a 13-year-old student ended up with bruises on his neck when the lasso landed on him incorrectly.
"This is not something that we feel was malicious, it was not intent," Moore said. "Extremely unfortunate, and extremely poor judgment."
Moore said the Garland Independent School District placed the teacher on leave as a precaution.
The Rowlett Police Department is investigating the incident for possible criminal charges.

Duo Esprit returns to Summit County
Summit Music and Arts welcomes the return of Duo Esprit, a harp and viola group, to Lord of the Mountains.
The program "Esprit Encore!" – performed by Ann Marie Liss, harp, and Basil Vendryes, viola -will feature music of Ferrante, Malloy, Kehn, Goldfinger and Berg (all written for Duo Esprit), as well as music of Vaughan Williams, Chopin, Gershwin and Bridge.
Liss is lauded for her colorful musical palette and inspirational tone as a solo artist and chamber musician. A Colorado native, she has performed as a soloist and harpist with orchestras throughout the United States and Europe, including the Breckenridge Music Festival, National Repertory Orchestra and l'Orchestre Alberique Mangard, and has recorded television and radio productions with Radio France, the Theatre Francais de la Musique, Opera du Theatre Imperial de Compiegne and the United States Air Force Academy Band.
The youngest harpist to be awarded the prestigious Diplome Superieure de Concertiste from the Ecole Normale de Musique de Paris, Liss was inspired by the art of chamber music and pursued simultaneous degrees through the Conservatoire National de Region de Paris, earning a double Diplome Superieure specializing in both chamber music and harp performance. The laureate of many national and international competitions, Liss appears regularly in concert as a founding member of Duo Esprit, a collaboration with Vendryes, principal violist of the Colorado Symphony Orchestra.
A featured musician on the runways of Paris Fashion Week and the World Harp Congress, Liss has performed at the famed Sydney Opera House, Paris' Salle Cortot and Italy's Basilica Santa Maria Bressanoro, and her music has received accolades from musicians and dignitaries including Sir Elton John, Billy Joel, Colorado governors and the vice president of the United States. As a member of the Colorado College performance faculty, Liss also maintains an active private studio and is widely sought out as an instructor, coach and clinician, specializing in technical foundation, tone production and brain integration in musical performance.
Vendryes has been principal violist of the Colorado Symphony Orchestra since 1993. He is a former member of the San Francisco Symphony, the New York Philharmonic and the Rochester Philharmonic orchestras. As violist with the Aurora String Quartet (1986-95), Vendryes performed extensively in New York, London and Tokyo. He currently serves on the faculties of the Lamont School of Music of the University of Denver, the Castleman Quartet Programs in Fredonia, N.Y., and Boulder, the Montecito Music Festival in California and the Green Valley Music Festival in Las Vegas.
Vendryes has served on the faculties of Biola University, California Summer Music and Summer Music West at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. He is the founder and director of the Colorado Young Sinfonia, composed of some of the best young talent in the Denver area, now in its 12th year. Vendryes has appeared as soloist with the Colorado, Aurora, Jefferson, Littleton, Lamont, Centennial and Biola symphonies, among others. Festival appearances include Spoleto, Heidelberg, Midsummer Mozart, Ouray and Lake Winnepesaukee. Working with promising talent is one of his passions, and Basil has given classes in viola and chamber music throughout the United States. Vendryes has recorded for Columbia, Phillips, Decca, RCA and Nonesuch, as well as chamber music for the Cadenza Music, Centaur, CRI, Denon and Naxos labels. Vendryes plays on a rare Italian viola made in 1887 by Carlo Cerruti.

I was 19, studying in Europe, and taking a night train home from Amsterdam to Florence. Around midnight the train derailed and jack-knifed, my friends and I were thrown from our seats (the far left carriage was ours) and nine people died. Fortunately, we climbed out and were OK.
The train wreck is an awful thing to reminisce about and something that doesn't come up lightly in conversation. But ten years on, it's still a part of my story.
Looking back I find truth in the adage 'what doesn't kill you makes you stronger'. My faith, though definitely and thoroughly shaken, was rebuilt on a more solid foundation. This encounter with death made me appreciate life more and forced me to confront personal issues I could have easily kept swept under the carpet for years. Like many people who've experienced difficult things I can say in hindsight, though I wouldn't want to go through it again, I am a better person for it.
But... though I am a better person, I think that what all this 'what doesn't kill you makes you stronger' business leaves out is that often what doesn't kill you (but comes close) leaves you with the unfortunate souvenir of anxiety and fear. Anxiety and fear didn't make me stronger, but made me weaker and proceeded to shrink my world.
Suddenly, everything was out of my control. I mean, if a train can come off a track, what else can derail? My life became a constant risk assessment, complemented with breathing issues bordering on hyperventilation and irrational terrors. Very exhausting. But unless you're Woody Allen, anxiety is also difficult to talk about.
The more I've been honest about anxiety, the more I've found that lots of people suffer from it to varying degrees too. I've found that being open about my fears and things that may embarrass me allow other people to open up and know they're not alone.
I could say tons about the train accident and the journey I've been on since then. I'm very thankful that I've worked through most of the difficulty, and the train accident remains just a little scar that, though I know it's there, doesn't cause me pain anymore. I'm also extremely thankful that, unlike nine of the other people on the train, my life didn't end that night and that I've been given so much in the past ten years. I know that I'm lucky/ blessed.

Advocate Redi-Code+ Blood Glucose Test Strips by Diabetic Supply of Suncoast: Recall- Labeling Error
The Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services received information regarding a recall of all BMB-BA006A Advocate Redi-Code+ blood glucose test strip lots manufactured by BroadMaster Bio-Tech Corp. The recall is due to a labeling error that could result in confusion about which meter models are to be used with the Redi-Code+ BMB-BA006A blood glucose test strips.
In the incorrect labeling, the test strips model (BMB-BA006A) was omitted. Suncoast is recalling the test strips in an effort to avoid confusion and the possible misuse of the Advocate Redi-Code+blood glucose test strips with the Taidoc meters listed in the Firm Press Release, which could result in incorrect glucose results.
Falsely high or falsely low glucose results could potentially cause missed or delayed hyperglycemia or hypoglycemia detection and lead to no treatment or inappropriate treatment. Delayed or inappropriate treatment of hyperglycemic or hypoglycemic states could lead to serious health consequences, including death.
The full recall can be found at www.fda.gov/Safety/MedWatch/SafetyInformation/SafetyAlertsforHumanMedicalProducts/ucm400668.htm?source=govdelivery&utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery.

The Pembroke Welsh Corgi (/ˈkɔːrɡi/; Welsh for "dwarf dog") is a cattle herding dog breed which originated in Pembrokeshire, Wales. It is one of two breeds known as a Welsh Corgi. The other is the Cardigan Welsh Corgi, and both descend from the line that is the northern spitz-type dog (examples include that of the Siberian Husky). Another theory is that Pembrokes are descended from the Swedish Vallhunds, which were crossed with the local Welsh herding dogs. The Pembroke Welsh Corgi is the younger of the two Corgi breeds and is a separate and distinct breed[4] from the Cardigan. The corgi is one of the smallest dogs in the Herding Group. Pembroke Welsh Corgis are famed for being the preferred breed of Queen Elizabeth II, who has owned more than 30 during her reign. These dogs have been favored by British royalty for more than seventy years, but among the British public, have recently fallen into decline in terms of popularity and demand.
The Pembroke Welsh Corgi has been ranked at #11 in Stanley Coren's The Intelligence of Dogs, and per source, is considered an excellent working dog. According to the American Kennel Club, Pembroke Welsh Corgis were ranked 20th most popular breed of dog in 2015

The Devils are trying to make a miracle, and no one's come this close in 67 years.
"We have a bunch of resilient guys who want to make history and win the Stanley Cup," Miracle Man Martin Brodeur said after the Devils moved within two straight victories of the NHL's greatest comeback in 70 years.
They're taking the Stanley Cup Final back to Los Angeles for Game 6 tomorrow, thanks to last night's 2-1 victory in Game 5 in Newark. Now trailing the best-of-seven series 3-2, they will be trying to tie the series they once trailed 3-0 and force Game 7 in Newark.
They believed in their comeback before last night's victory. Now they're struggling to contain their excitement.
"It's just growing with every period and every goal we score," defenseman Mark Fayne said.
The Devils are seeking to win four straight from a team for the second time in these playoffs.
"We want to win the next game, and we're not looking at anything else," Dainius Zubrus said of miracle-making. "Honest to God, no.
"That's the only way we can do it."
The Devils have already accomplished what only two teams have ever managed, win two games from a 3-0 hole in the finals — the 1942 Maple Leafs over Detroit, the only team ever to win the Cup from that abyss, and the 1945 Red Wings, who lost to Toronto in seven.
"We still have that same belief," David Clarkson said. "We believe."
By handing Los Angeles its first consecutive defeats of postseason, New Jersey snapped the Kings' record 10-0 road start in the finals, and pushed L.A. beyond a fifth game for the first time in these playoffs.
Kings coach Darryl Sutter seemed testy afterwards when asked where pressure now resides.
"Are you cheering for the Devils or for the Kings? So you're cheering for the Devils. I'm going to say the pressure's on them because they're the home team and they had 100-some [102] points, OK?" Sutter said.
The Devils, sixth seeded in the East, still need two victories for their fourth Cup, while the Kings need only one in the final two games of the season to become the first-ever eighth-seed to win the Stanley Cup.
"We're not going to go away lightly," Devils defenseman Andy Greene said.
"We'll play our Game 7 again and see what happens," Zubrus said.
The Kings opened with a fury, as if annoyed to have to make the cross-country flight to complete what they could have regarded as a formality. But the Devils took the lead with their first power play goal of the series at 12:45 of the first period. Parise victimized Kings goalie Jonathan Quick by stealing his clearing attempt behind the net and tucking it around the open right post.
"I went on the normal forecheck route I've gone on 1,000 times this year. He happened to misplay it and put it right on my stick," Parise said of his first goal and point of the finals.
New Jersey's lead lasted until Justin Williams scored at 3:26 of the second, a snapper through Fayne's screen over Brodeur's waffle.
But Bryce Salvador, the no-longer unlikely hero of these playoffs, scored what stood up as the winner, his fourth of postseason, at 9:05 of the second. At the left point, he shuffled for a shooting lane and his wrister went in off Kings defenseman Slava Voynov. Salvador did not score a goal while playing all 82 games during the regular season and had only two in his first 50 career playoff games.
Coach Pete DeBoer was asked if the Devils are a team that can make history.
"I don't know," he answered. "We're just trying to win a Stanley Cup."
If they do, they have.

GM says Volt isn't dead yet, despite panel's bleak report
WASHINGTON — The White House may have sounded a bit bleak on the Chevrolet Volt last week, but both the company and the Obama administration say don't read that as early news of the much-advertised electric car's demise.
President Barack Obama's auto task force last week said in an assessment of General Motors' viability that it was a full generation behind Toyota in "green powertrain development" and that "while the Volt holds promise, it is currently projected to be much more expensive than its gasoline-fueled peers and will likely need substantial reductions in manufacturing cost in order to become commercially viable."
A White House official who worked on the assessment said on Wednesday, however, that the statements had been simply another way of saying what GM has said all along — it will be a challenge to bring the new technology up to scale and make it cost competitive.
GM will have to make its own decisions about the pace of its advanced technology, said the official, who requested anonymity because he wasn't authorized to speak publicly.
"You should not expect the task force will say GM should discontinue the Volt," he said.
GM spokesman Dave Darovitz said there was nothing new in the government statement on high costs. New technology is always expensive, he said.
The company has added money to building the Volt, and it's still the "No. 1 product development program here at GM," he said.
"We will make it happen," Darovitz said. "There is no deviation in our focus and intent to bring the car to market in late 2010."
Darovitz said the government report made an unfair comparison with Toyota because it was dealing with two different technologies — the Prius gas-electric hybrid and the battery-powered plug-in electric Volt.
Obama last week rejected GM's restructuring plan and gave the automaker until June 1 to explain how it would reshape itself as a healthy company. GM seeks more than $16 billion in additional taxpayer funds.
GM reported in its five-year restructuring plan that it's investing in hybrid and plug-in cars and trucks, including the Volt and two other models that will use its technology.
"With a majority of Americans driving their vehicles less than 40 miles per day, the Chevrolet Volt — providing up to 40 miles on a single electrical charge — should be attractive to those seeking to use little if any gasoline," the GM plan said. "The development costs of high-technology vehicles like the Volt are significant, but so are the long-term benefits that come from increased energy efficiency and independence."
Darovitz said the company expects state and federal incentives will help boost demand for the Volt, particularly a $7,500 federal tax credit. The Volt is expected to sell for around $40,000 because of the high cost of its batteries. The Energy Department has been helping with battery research to bring costs down.

"We lost a friend, one of the finest men and one of the greatest characters we were fortunate to meet in this community and in this business.
"Baltimore is now without one of its best and someone who was a foundation for the tremendous popularity of football in our area. The world is not as bright tonight because we lost someone who could make us all smile."

'''See Also:''' Civil Code § 1689.5 - 1689.7, Consumer Transactions with Statutory Contrat-Cancellation Rights
Revision as of 16:07, 17 October 2019
Door-to-Door sales or solicitation for sales allow a three-day cancellation, or cooling off period and apply to purchases of $25 or more including interest, mailing, and other charges that take place away from a normal business place, such as in your home or at a seminar sale program.
The three-day cancellation right applies only to items or services purchased for personal, family, or household use. Sundays and holidays are not counted in the three day cancellation time.
Cancellation occurs when the buyer gives written notice of cancellation to the seller at the address specified in the agreement or offer. Notice of cancellation, if given by mail, is effective when deposited in the mail properly addressed with postage prepaid. Notice of cancellation given by the buyer need not take the particular form as provided with the contract or offer to purchase and, however, expressed, is effective if it indicates the intention of the buyer not to be bound by the home solicitation contract or offer.
- Solicitors must be licensed by the city or county in which the sales are made. Ask to see the salesperson's personal identification and if required, license or registration. Salespersons are required to give you his or her name, the name of the company and product when he or she first comes to the door.
- Ask for sales literature and then call local stores that might sell the same merchandise to compare prices. Some door-to-door products may be overpriced.
- Avoid being pressured into buying. Watch for the warning signs: an offer of a free gift if you buy a product, an offer that is good for that day only, or the consumer is told a neighbor just made a purchase.
