Best of… for the week of August 13, 2012
Here's my round-up (a couple of days late) of last weeks best stories and articles for Small Business and Beer Business.
Small Business
I often advise clients on when is the right time to incorporate or form a business (i.e. start acting as a business and not as a person) and why. Thanks to Nina Kaufman (@ninakaufman) for summing this up in this short video. 3 Reasons to Incorporate Your Business http://www.entrepreneur.com/video/224126
In real estate, it's all about "location, location, location." In small business, it's all about "planning, planning, planning." That means that, at least for a period of time, your personal and business life will revolve around your business plan. Make sure it's thorough. Why Your Business Plan Is Probably Incomplete http://www.entrepreneur.com/article/224195
Remember, even if you're small business, it's not all about you. Your team (internal or external) is what will make the biggest difference to your success. To Be Number One, Get the Right Number Two http://blogs.hbr.org/kanter/2012/08/to-be-number-one-get-the-right.html
More on Leadership: Crisis management is a topic for every small business person. What makes a good manager in a crisis? When Good Management Is a Matter of Life and Death http://blogs.hbr.org/cs/2012/08/the_leadership_mistakes_that_l.html?awid=4678865509342592577-3271
Ok, so that's what to do. How about what not to do (on a day to day basis)? The Seven Deadly Sins of Management http://blogs.hbr.org/cs/2012/08/the_seven_deadly_sins_of_manag.html
Continuing on the HBR bandwagon (they've had a great week!)… I remember a line from a movie "everyone *thinks* they have a sense of humor, even the ones who don't." Everyone *thinks* they're a good boss. Are you? Really? Are You Sure You're Not a Bad Boss? http://blogs.hbr.org/cs/2012/08/are_you_sure_youre_not_a_bad_b.
Employee of my dreams? I don't think so. I'd settle for a "good" employee. Maybe even "decent." There are days when I'm desperate enough to take someone as basic as "breathing." Here's some things to look for in your employee search. How to Hire the Right Employees for Your Startup http://www.entrepreneur.com/article/224191
Beer Business
Here's an interesting article on what may be a direction for the beer industry/business down the road. Focuses on the technology and sensory options for deconstructing and developing a beer. Yeast of Eden: the future of beer http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/wordofmouth/2012/aug/13/yeast-eden-future-of-beer?newsfeed=true
Love that many small farmers and agri-businesspersons are rediscovering the economies that drove our great grandparents. It used to be that brewing beer on the farm was the norm, not the exception. Here's a great story on it. Maryland farmers try beer production http://www.baltimoresun.com/business/bs-md-ca-farm-brewery-20120813,0,3856297.story
Good LORD! Have you been watching this story unfold? Heineken & Tiger Beer. here: http://www.atimes.com/atimes/Southeast_Asia/NH15Ae01.html and here: http://t.co/bFzVv59j and here: http://t.co/fAHyOCGc
You know that right after they planted it, they had to have made beer from it. Can we brew again with einkorn? Bulgarians cultivating ancient einkorn grain http://goo.gl/GQM0E
I happen to think that there should be more of this sort of cross-pollination between the alcohol industries. Cheers to Anderson Valley! Anderson Valley Brewing Co. forms partnership with Wild Turkey Bourbon http://beerpulse.com/2012/08/anderson-valley-brewing-co-forms-partnership-with-wild-turkey-bourbon/
Here's an interesting article out of the UK. I don't know that this is a huge issue in the US right now, but with the rising cost & popularity of craft beer, maybe we should be on the watch for tax dodges like this. Bootleg Beer Hitting Lawful Traders http://goo.gl/wY6y4
Speaking of prices fluctuating (up anyway), here's a good video and article about how/when beer prices shift. Grin and Beer It: Some Beer Prices Will Increase. http://t.co/KALtGRKN
Love Oskar Blues' beer, and I'm thrilled they're coming to NC. IF you haven't heard, they're planning on brewing their Dale's Pale Ale in NC before the end of the year! I was a project manager in a former life/career. For something of this scale, that's a really, *really* fast build . Cheers to them! Beer Guy: Oskar Blues plans quick build http://www.citizen-times.com/article/20120816/ASHEVILLESCENE/308160019
Not to be outdone, Sierra Nevada has accelerated their build timeline as well. They've moved their "open" date to July 2013 (another *fast* build). Sierra Nevada changes opening date to July 2013 http://www.blueridgenow.com/article/20120814/ARTICLES/120819909?p=1&tc=pg
I've never understood where the stigma for Contract Brewing came from. Just because you don't physically *own* the equipment, it's not really brewing? Please. I've got to give credit to Shaun O'Sullivan at 21st Amendment Brewery (563 2nd Street, "that's right, cans.") – I like his re-invention to calling it Partner Brewing. Contract is Not a Dirty Word in Brewing http://www.craftbeer.com/pages/stories/craft-beer-muses/show?title=contract-is-not-a-dirty-word-in-brewing#.UC0wG69w_N8.twitter
I *just* posted on this a few weeks ago. Sounds interesting, I'd like to hear more. Oregon Public House: The First Nonprofit Pub (VIDEO) http://www.huffingtonpost.com/bus-52/oregon-public-house-video_b_1773883.html
Here's good article on the dangers (no matter which side of the fence you're on) with market consolidation in the beer industry. One Company Will Soon Control Half of the U.S. Beer Market http://business.time.com/2012/07/03/one-company-will-soon-control-half-of-the-u-s-beer-market/
Speaking of market consolidation… U.S. Department of Justice formally requests more info on A-B InBev/Modelo deal http://beerpulse.com/2012/08/u-s-department-of-justice-formally-requests-more-info-on-a-b-inbevmodelo-deal/
Market impact: How will the weather/crops so far this year effect the beer industry? Here's the skinny – USDA August 2012 Crop Report: update on barley, hops and apples http://beerpulse.com/2012/08/usda-august-2012-crop-report-update-on-barley-hops-and-apples/

Best of… for the week of August 6, 2012
Ok, well, it's that time again… time to recap the week. But, I took an unexpected week off last week so I need to catch up. Here's the best from the last TWO weeks!
Small Business
As folks look to form businesses, you have to ask yourself questions about what kind of structure makes sense for your business. I love the title of this article, it's worth a read (by the way, the answer is "No.") Will a Corporation or Limited Liability Company Protect You from Yourself? http://www.jdsupra.com/legalnews/will-a-corporation-or-limited-liability-55959/?utm_source=jds&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=bizlaw
We always talk about intellectual property and social media here. It's a growing area and no one really knows how some things are going to shake out. AND it's growing faster than things CAN shake out in some cases. Here's a new one re: copyright. What's the impact of Pinterest on your copyrights? Let It Slide: Copyright Infringement On Pinterest http://www.jdsupra.com/legalnews/let-it-slide-copyright-infringement-on-04280/?utm_source=jds&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=bizlaw
Crowdfunding is another issue where things are taking off much faster than the legal framework can adapt. Here's a good article on some points to consider before you jump in. How To Make Sure Your Crowdfunding Dreams Don't Turn Into An Investor Relations Nightmare http://techcrunch.com/2012/08/05/how-to-make-sure-your-crowdfunding-dreams-dont-turn-into-an-investor-relations-nightmare/
Here's another Nina Kaufman item. Great little video about Terms & Conditions on your website. Think you only need to worry about that if you sell online? You're wrong. Tune in. 3 Reasons Why Your Website Should Include Terms and Conditions http://www.entrepreneur.com/video/223931
While we're touting Nina, here's another of her videos on an oft-overlooked subject. Who is your partner? Do you know who you're getting into business with? You better! Sometimes it's easier to get divorced from a spouse than to disengage from a business partner. How to Know If a Business Partner is Right for You. http://www.entrepreneur.com/video/224127 also, be sure to follow Nina Kaufman at @ninakaufman on twitter.
This article sounds like it's directed at big business, but the principles apply to every innovator (as a small business owner, that's you!) and it's worth a read. The Planning Fallacy and the Innovator's Dilemma http://blogs.hbr.org/anthony/2012/08/the_planning_fallacy_and_the_i.html?awid=7946997658421232138-3271
Beer Business
In Oklahoma, they've formed a brewing cooperative. It's a different legal structure that has advantages and disadvantages of its own. Looks like it's working out for them right now. Oklahoma City brewing cooperative aims to grow beer culture. http://newsok.com/oklahoma-city-brewing-cooperative-aims-to-grow-beer-culture/article/3697637#ixzz22glEIQ8g
One of my favorite subjects: North Carolina Beer! Here's a guide for you out-of-towners. No place like foam: Your guide to cool microbreweries in North Carolina http://www.chicagotribune.com/travel/vs-travel-north-carolina-microbreweries-20120730,0,1960437.story
Still on NC… Boulevard Brewing jumps on the bandwagon with distribution. Many breweries are leap-frogging over other surrounding states to get into the NC market. Boulevard Brewing Company Entering Georgia and North Carolina in 2012 http://www.brewbound.com/news/boulevard-brewing-company-entering-georgia-and-north-carolina-in-2012
More on NC! Oskar Blues to start production in Brevard in December http://www.blueridgenow.com/article/20120805/ARTICLES/120809916
On the other end of the spectrum, how would you like to be labeled with "only" and "first" when it's something the rest of the country doesn't see as a big deal? Beer from here: Alabama's only brewpub opens at Heroes in Weaver http://www.annistonstar.com/view/full_story/19718633/article-Beer-from-here–Alabama%E2%80%99s-f%E2%80%8Airst-brewpub-opens-at-Heroes-in-Weaver?instance=home_lifestyle (by the way, Good for them!)
Here's a question I come back to again and again: If you're a brewer/brewery, how do you balance between what you like to brew/drink and what sells the best? Here's one take from Magic Hat (the article is mostly about Angel City Brewing, but scroll down). Under wing of new owners, Angel City Brewing begins again http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/news/la-et-angel-city-20120803,0,3552857.story

Best Practices for Successful Collaboration http://www.jdsupra.com/legalnews/best-practices-for-successful-collaborat-97122/?utm_source=jds&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=bizlaw
This may be the year for mega-deals in the beer business. By August, the total amount changing hands is over $35 billion (that's with a "B"). In deals, brewers hop to it. http://www.jg.net/article/20120805/BIZ/308059961/1031/BIZ
Despite the consolidation in some markets/segments, in the US, we've hit a 125 year high in total number of breweries. Woot! BREWERS ASSOCIATION REPORTS 2012 MID-YEAR GROWTH FOR U.S. CRAFT BREWERS http://www.brewersassociation.org/pages/media/press-releases/show?title=brewers-association-reports-2012-mid-year-growth-for-u-s-craft-brewers

How do the "big boys" fit with Craft Beer and the Craft Beer Business?
I've been thinking about the Big Beer companies, the big and the getting-bigger companies.
The story starts a few weeks ago. I had been watching a thread on a forum where a homebrewer started off by saying something like "I can't drink macro lager anymore. I can't believe anyone who like craft beer can stand to drink that other stuff." There were a lot of comments like "I can't drink that swill," or "there's no substitute for flavor." There were some comments to the tune of "yeah, but at the ball park or the beach on a hot day," or "I still have a macro beer at a party now and then."
So here's my thinking: Whether you like their product or not, you have to give credit to the breweries that are turning out light american lager on a global scale. Any homebrewer that has tried to do it can tell you that Light American Lager is a *very* difficult style to brew and brew well. Yet, here are the massive companies turning out millions of gallons of the stuff all over the world and achieving flavor and production consistency that most small commercial brewers can only hope to emulate. Clearly, these macro breweries know their business and have the brewing down to a science. Folks like AB-InBev, MolsonCoors/SABMiller have developed, used, re-invented, and forgotten more beer science than most people will ever know. They have their process control tight and their Quality Control tighter. They know how to brew beer.
And they've got money. And they're not stupid – they're watching the steady growth of craft beer year over year. And they've got to want in. Examples of attempts include everything from AB-Inbev's Shocktop and Amberbock to MolsonCoor's Blue Moon. Some forays are more successful than others (Budweiser American Ale anyone?).
So: (1) they've got the money (i.e. capital to invest), (2) they've got the science know-how, (3) they've got creative people (surely out of those hundreds of thousands of employees, someone's got to be creative right?), and (4) they've got the marketing and desire to do it. Why aren't they bigger players in the craft beer segment. Some have turned to buying up craft breweries to help augment their foothold, but these guys are science and marketing juggernauts, why do they struggle with getting into craft beer?
This seems like a conundrum from the outside. I have my thoughts on why this is, I'm sure you do too. My question here is, what do you think the long term role of the marcro beer companies is going to be in the craft beer market segment?

A hero's welcome was rolled out for a group of men who proudly served the U.S. nearly 70 years ago.
Thursday, scores of veterans from Northwest Louisiana and Northeast Texas flooded the nation's capitol.
He gets choked up when he talks about his oldest brother, Pat, a bomber pilot who died in World War II. Pat is one of the reasons Whittington wanted to go on the heroes flight to see the war memorials in Washington D.C.
"He was killed in Italy or somewhere over there on April 12th. That's the same day President Roosevelt died," Whittington said of his brother.
The other reason - Whittington also served in World War II aboard the U.S.S. Hughs Destroyer in the South Pacific before he was old enough to drive.
One morning while his destroyer was escorting the Liskum Bay - a smaller destroyer, a Japanese submarine attacked.
"All of a sudden I saw this huge ball of flame go up, and the Liskum Bay got hit with a torpedo," he said.
Whittington jumped into action and helped pull in survivors using a rope ladder.
"Me and another guy were hanging off there and occasionally having to go in the water to get somebody who couldn't get back up there," he said. "A lot of them they were burned."
After learning of his brother's death, Whittington secured an early release to return home to Shreveport.
And here, he made local headlines as a 16-year-old veteran of World War II. The teen that had seen the world, took part in a war that shaped the world, and defended his country was quoted as saying, "I figured it was time to get back to school and learn something"

A wooden tool box is very useful to every household or any shop specializing in maintenance work. Although there are tool kits or tool pouches which can be fastened to your belt, these may not be at all practical when you need access to a variety of tools and repair devices for a given maintenance job. Besides, it is not always safe or convenient to carry tools by carting them around on your belt. Thus, using a wooden tool box to carry your tools is sometimes the safer choice. Because of its importance, you must now know how to make a wooden tool box.
In general, tool boxes, whether made of wood or steel, are designed to keep all your tools well-organized. It is impractical and unsafe to scatter tools all over your work space when doing carpentry, masonry, plumbing, furniture making, and electrical work. To have a tool box as the repository of your maintenance tools seems to be a mandatory requirement for anyone doing maintenance work.
If you want to build a quality wooden tool box yourself, accomplishing the job from its design down to its construction and finishing touches can be easily done when you follow these simple steps.
Design your tool box. When you design your tool box, measure the biggest or the longest possible tool that you'll need to keep in it. That way, you can be sure that all of your tools can be well accommodated by your proposed tool box design. Make all the other measurements carefully before you make the first cut into the wood to be used.
Prepare your materials, tools, and safety gadgets. Good materials for making a wooden tool box are either 1-inch thick solid, kiln-dried wood or plywood. The wood you use should be light so that, when the box is loaded with tools, the weight will still be manageable.
Also, safety equipment is very important. You must have them available and ready when you start your construction and maintenance work. It is better to be safe than sorry.
The primary tools that you will need are the following: hammer, handsaw, miter box, drill bits, and electric drills. Put them all together in your work area so that you'll have easy access to them while making your wooden tool box.
Measure and cut. The measurements referred to are the dimensions of the different parts of your box. A typical wooden tool box has four (4) main parts – the handle, the bottom, the two (2) ends, and the two (2) sides. Depending on the size of your desired tool box, cut these major parts of your tool box.
Temporarily piece together the cut out parts. Use your adhesive glue to initially connect the parts of your tool box. Once the parts are all glued, the form of your tool box will be revealed. Wait for the glue to dry sufficiently so that the newly assembled tool box can hold its shape.
Drill pilot holes for your nails or wood screws. After cutting out the main parts of your tool box, use the electric drill to drill small holes that will serve as guides for your nails. Use drill bits that have a smaller diameter than the nails that will be used. You can also use wood screws instead of nails. Perform the same drilling procedure either way.
Drive the nails or the wood screws. This is to strengthen the whole tool box structure. Use your hammer for nails, or a screwdriver for screws, to embed them into the wood and, the box structure will be strengthened.
Finalize the appearance of your wooden tool box. Using fine sandpaper, sand the newly assembled tool box and then apply liquid finish. The liquid finish will protect your wooden tool box against rot and termite attacks. It will also give it a presentable appearance.
The instructions for how to make a wood tool box are there for you to follow, so you can make and design your own box. Having a good tool box will definitely speed up your construction and repair projects.

"The birth announcement was gorgeous. When I received cards I noticed 2 were damaged. It looked like a printing smudge. I called customer service. Even before I offered to take a picture of cards to show the error, customer service resolved issue by sending me replacements. Not only did they send replacement they sent extra cards. I will continue to rant and rave about how amazing your customer service is. I have received phone calls, emails n text messages from people telling me how beautiful our announcement is. Thank you!!!!!"
"This card is so beautiful! I didn't realize, at first, how the shading at te top was part of the card and not the photo that was imported, it made my picture evening amazing :) I recorded sooooo many compliments on it."
"This was my first time using Tinyprints and it was so easy! I loved that I could customize by card by changing the colors and emphasizing some words/information and not others. The only bummer is the difference in postage; but definitely worth it due to quality."
"Very happy with our results, paper is high quality and our photos look amazing. We used high resolution professional prints and they look fantastic. Lots of compliments on the design, would definitely recommend!"
"I was a little worried that the resolutions of the pictures was going to be too high. But when I received them in the mail, the way I placed the pictures in the template is exactly as they printed and the quality was clear and crisp. I would totally order again VERY satisfied."

Sheer bliss, but get waterproof sheets
Reviewed: 26 June 2014 by SInfulSmiles, a Straight Going Steady Female
I never thought I would ever be a fan of steel toys (hard, cold and not buzzy!), but I bought a small njoy plug for a partner as a present, and couldn't help the impressed by first the packaging, and then the quality! That thing was just so beautiful, and I couldn't stop playing with it!
Fast forward a year or so, and I found myself on the quest to discover the mysterious art of squirting, but with no joy. Nothing. Not even a trickle. I was about to give up until I read some reviews for the njoy Pure Wand and everything I read suggested that this would help me find the holy grail!
So I saved up (this is no cheap toy!), bit the bullet and ordered it.
First of all when it arrived, the case was stunningly beautiful. It just oozed quality and luxury. And the wand itself, oh my god, it was stunning. All I wanted to do was to fondle it, stroke it and run my hands up and down it feeling its weight (because this thing is heavy!).
But, I had a quest in mind and I needed this to do much more than just feel good (and make a lethal weapon if any one broke into my house!).
I don't like the cold, and so the first thing was to run this beast under the hot tap to warm it up. And this was my first surprise. It got hot quickly and stayed hot - and hot, it felt even better.
Using a lot of lube, I started to get to work with this toy, and wow! The heat, shape and weight meant that pretty much anything I did with it felt amazing! By the time I slid the larger of the two ends (which feels pretty huge given how hard it is) inside me, I was pretty much in heaven, but then it just got better.
The weight and size of the rounded head means that there is a lot of G-spot pressure in exactly the right place, and this, combined with the heat, soon produced a lot of (previously very much unheard of) noisy squelching.
Combining this with a vibe on my clit, I was in total heaven. And then it happened. Niagara Falls. Not so much squirting as cascading; flooding; a tsunami. Blimey!
Since then I have found that squirting with this wand is pretty much guaranteed - and not only that but my partner can easily make me squirt with it too (which he really loves!).
Since then I have used it other ways - including anally with the small end, cold (if I am really hot or else a bit sore from a long session, it is lovely), and even as a massager. It always feels amazing!
If you enjoy temperature play, want something hard and heavy, love luxury, and want to find the toy that may just help you with the elusive squirting - this is it! I appreciate that it might not be for everyone. It is unyielding, weighty, not gentle and may seem a bit intimidating. But, I love it!
Don't hesitate - this is something really special.
- Pros
- Everything - it is stunning!
- Cons
- Nothing - this is perfection.
- Bottom line
- This is one of those special toys that you will never regret buying.

G-spot and p-spot bliss
Reviewed: 07 May 2014 by NEGuy, a Straight Going Steady Male
I bought this for me and my girlfriend to share.
As with all njoy products, it comes in a well made black box, with moulded foam insert lined with a pink satin like material. The toy sits nestled within this.
This is of the very highest quality. It's literally flawless. Just pure smooth, safe, stainless steel.
For him:
I used this solo to stimulate my prostate. Prior to this I had only used butt plugs and, while enjoyable, I hadn't ever had a P-spot orgasm.
The smaller end is a comfortable fit with plenty of lube, and, once you are warmed up, the large end goes inside with some slow pressure - and once it is in, it feels divine.
From slow rocking movements, taking advantage of the toy's curve, to hard thrusting, it feels amazing. It had me on my knees with my head in the pillows from the pleasure, and ended with a very strong and messy orgasm. Highly recommended.
For her:
I used this on her while she was blindfolded initially. For the first time I used it straight out of the box, but in the future I shall pre-warm it, as it is cold initially.
The best way we found of using it so far was to take advantage of the curve of the toy and rock it in and out, pressing the head of the toy against the G-spot perfectly.
Being heavy stainless steel, I would recommend against vigorous thrusting, as this is likely to be uncomfortable. However, used right as a tool of precision it produces fantastic effects.
With this hitting her G-spot while she used a wand vibrator on her clit, she was soon cumming hard and often, leaving her totally spent afterwards.
We still haven't achieved the holy grail of squirting, but she certainly gets wetter than ever before, so maybe we aren't far off.
You can clean this thing however you want! Which is good, especially as we share it. It always looks as good as new, and I am confident that it is as clean as new, as well.
The future:
More temperature play!
- Pros
- The highest quality. Gives great orgasms.
- Cons
- Nothing.
- Bottom line
- Sex toy perfection.

I decided to treat myself to this dildo after uming and arhing for months on whether to spend so much on a single item.
Wow. Am I pleased I did. This is by far the most pleasurable toy I own (and trust me, that's a lot). Not only does it give you the most amazing orgasms, but it is also the most beautiful dildo I have ever seen.
As always, this toy arrived next day, with Lovehoney's discreet packaging. Once I opened the packaging, I was greeted by a sleek and classy box with the 'njoy' logo in pride of place. The box makes this toy ooze luxury. Once opened, you are greeted by the beautiful toy enclosed in pink satin. It just teases you to pick it up and feel it!
As soon as I picked up the toy, I fell in love. The weight and feel of the steel against flesh is sublime. It's as if it wants you to caress it! The design is beautiful. The curve with each bulbous end makes the toy appear as a piece of art. I couldn't wait to try it out.
The steel makes the toy so simple to 'prepare'. Cleaning the toy is so simple - as long as no abrasive is used - you don't want to ruin the mirror shine! And you can use any lube you desire.
The steel also creates the opportunity for temperature play. Trust me - running the cold steel over your most sensitive parts makes you shudder with excitement! The curve not only looks amazing, but heck does it serve a purpose!
The bulbs reach places you didn't even know existed. The G-spot stimulation this dildo makes possible, is truly incredible! The weight of the steel also creates a feeling of fullness that any other material just cannot even come close to.
The bottom line with this dildo is that you will never, ever, need anything else to fulfil your pleasure. I fully and entirely recommend it, to anyone and everyone. I forever owe debt to the amazing designers of such a perfect implement of happiness.
- Pros
- Absolutely everything.
- Cons
- Nothing!
- Bottom line
- This took me to pleasures I didn't even know existed.

This is the ultimate in stainless steel dildos
Reviewed: 03 April 2014 by filthy_mind, a Bisexual Single Male
Having read lots of good reviews about the njoy range of stainless steel dildos, and perved over countless images of them online, I decided to bite the bullet and treat myself to a couple.
The njoy Pure Wand Stainless Steel Dildo was the first to arrive.
As I've come to expect from Lovehoney, my order arrived very quickly, securely packaged in a plain brown box with plenty of paper inside to stop things banging around.
Eager to see what it contained, I tore the parcel open to reveal the exquisite packaging which njoy has become famous for. A stylish, and very sturdy looking black box, with red silk-like material cradled the steel dildo.
I knelt there for a moment or two, just looking at the Pure Wand, reluctant to touch it for fear of getting my fingerprints all over it!
The first thing you'll notice when you pick the dildo up is its weight. Being made entirely of high quality steel, and with a length of almost 10 inches, there is a bit of weight to it, but it's not too heavy and it is to be expected for a dildo like this.
The second thing you'll notice is how smooth this dildo is. There are no casting marks or other imperfections, the whole thing is absolutely seamless. It really is a joy to hold one of these in your hand and run your fingers up and down its length...
Oops! I'm getting a bit carried away while I write this, so back to the review!
Using the Pure Wand couldn't be easier. Lying on my back, I applied a dab of my favourite lube (Sliquid Organics Natural Gel) and started off at the small end (with a 1" ball). After warming up for a few minutes and getting a feel for the dildo, I switched over to the larger end (1.5" ball).
Not only do the balls on each end feel amazing when they're inside you, they are also very easy to grip, even with lube covered fingers.
For me, the natural curve felt like it hit my P-spot perfectly, giving me a much stronger orgasm than usual.
I can't really comment on how effective this is at stimulating the female G-spot, but there are enough rave reviews of this dildo out there to attest to the fact that this is indeed the best of the bunch.
- Pros
- Exquisite packaging, perfectly polished finish, bulbous ends that always hit the spot.
- Cons
- Nothing to dislike.
- Bottom line
- A real pleasure to use and a joy to look at.

More like magic wand
Reviewed: 25 March 2014 by CanadaCouple, a Straight Going Steady Female
Let me introduce myself: I'm a young mom, 25 years old, not a sex addict, just a regular woman. Me and my boyfriend love to test new products.
He ordered the Pure wand as a Valentine's Day day gift after reading a review on the internet.
I have to say that I was troubled when seeing it at first. The shape is weird, And the weight... let's say it's massive.
It's not easy for me to have an orgasm. I usually need 20-30min of clitoral, vaginal AND anal stimulation. So first of all, warm the damn thing. Since it is steel, it is quite cold out of the box. But after some warming I thought I was ready to go.
I am no size queen and was not sure about the big end. My boyfriend put some lube on the small one and inserted it. Communication is important when using a toy like this as a couple. But within 30 seconds he was rocking the small thing on a spot I didn't know existed in my body. It was so good I asked him to put the large end in.
It went in without any trouble - and the magic began. With a little clitoral stimulation, I was having the most intense orgasm of my life within 3 minutes.
I thought it was an error. So we tried again some day later. 7 minutes to a mind-blowing orgasm. And my G-spot is opening to stimulation, because I had a 100% vaginal orgasm 5 minute after.
Finally, I tried it alone. God it's heavy. Learn to be efficient in your movement to not get tired too fast. Even if I was not in a big sexy mood, I managed to learn things about my body and had a long 5 minute orgasm on my third try.
If you are not sure about your G-spot, I combine it with arousal cream.
- Pros
- The pressure on the G-spot.
- Cons
- The weight.
- Bottom line
- 5 stars, discovered new sensations.

Christmas Comes Alive at The North Pole Experience
Nestled in the forest of Flagstaff, Arizona, The North Pole Experience brings the magic of Christmas alive. And for my little family, it's an experience we won't soon forget.
'Tis the season for elves, good behavior and jolly, old men in suits. But for sweet, little, 3-year-old girls, the magic of Christmas is only now beginning to come alive. The weekend after Thanksgiving, our family ventured to Flagstaff, Arizona, a beautiful mountainous town, where a "portal" to Santa's workshop takes you, by trolley, on a journey that you won't soon forget.
The North Pole Experience, Home of Santa's Worksop, is nestled in the forest of Flagstaff and provides an experience that is fun for all ages. From tots to teenagers, kids become elves and have plenty of one-on-one time with Santa. It's also where the magic and joy of the holiday season comes alive for our little girl in a way that tales and stories had not done previously.
The night of our North Pole Experience, we stayed at a quaint hotel, Little America, where the NPX trolley departs from. The next morning, we were invited to a breakfast buffet with Santa. My daughter had the chance to meet the jolly old man personally and talk with him about her dreams (she wants to take care of sick animals). He told her to become a veterinarian because the world needs people to take care of our animals. He didn't rush her or stick to toy-talk—he was thoroughly engaged. And as a mom, I watched as my little girl's heart became full of the magic and love that the Christmas season brings. After breakfast, we walked the beautiful grounds of our hotel, coming onto some cowboys who offered us a sleigh ride. Tucked under a blanket, the four of us created some amazing family memories that we'll remember forever.
Check out our NPX adventure…

Lee County Sheriff's Office released new information on Friday's home invasion in North Fort Myers. Deputies said they located the victim's stolen vehicle. They also said they don't believe this was a random crime.
On Monday, deputies returned to 4701 Swanson Loop in North Fort Myers. On Friday, 63-year-old Robert Mabry claimed two men knocked on his door claiming they were Jehovah's Witnesses.
When he opened the door, Mabry told deputies one of the men hit him across the face with a handgun. He was then tied up and said the two men demanded pills, money and guns.
Neighbor Kathryn Thomas said she was scared when she saw authorities outside her home.
"I saw lots and lots of police cars and an ambulance and I was shocked because it's usually quiet around here," Thomas said.
Deputies said the thieves stole Mabry's car and nearly a dozen of his guns. The vehicle was recovered on Saturday at Park Villa Apartments on Royal Palm Avenue in Fort Myers.
Mabry refused medical treatment.
Authorities believe the crime was isolated. Neighbors said they speculated Mabry was targeted.
"I think something happened between him and somebody else and that's why they knew to go to that apartment. All the apartments look the same," Thomas said.
Deputies said they were at this same address last month when Mabry dropped a gun and it discharged through his neighbor's wall. Residents said they no longer feel safe.
Rick Langbauer said he's worried people will no longer think they have a safe community.
"I think it does upset some people, and now they won't be taking their walks like they used to or ride their bikes like they used to," Langbauer said.
This case is still under investigation.

Rated 2.5 / 5 stars January 20, 2009
Alright, but some prominent flaws...
I like the style of the game, classic action. I think the crude graphics give it charm too, it fits in with the retro feel.
However, it was quite glitchy. Sometimes if you killed something, it stayed on screen doing whatever it had been doing. It didn't collide with anything, so it wasn't really a big issue for the aliens who damage by contact - they'd just go off the screen. But if it happened with aliens armed with beam weapons, you have essentially invincible enemies constantly shooting at you.
I found another bug when I was crouched to shoot at the crab-like aliens: character was shown shooting, but it just didn't affect the aliens. I didn't get a chance to look into the bug in more depth though, because I already had low health and died. (I encountered these bugs using Firefox 3.0.5 and Flash 10.0.12 on Windows, which I'd say is a pretty common configuration).
Apart from those bugs, I only have one other suggestion - a period of invincibility after being hit. It doesn't have to be long, even half a second, but it's a little ridiculous that you can have reasonably high health, but if you hold forward a bit too long when entering a new screen, you can be killed by the electricity things on the floor in a split second.
Still, it was enjoyable, and has the potential to be a fairly decent retro action game.

In an offseason of sparse, small moves, the St. Louis Cardinals made another signing Monday that will minimally impact their season, and hopefully it won't be a factor at all. The Cardinals signed shortstop Ronny Cedeno to a one-year contract to be a back-up option in case starting shortstop Rafael Furcal's right elbow has problems again in the upcoming season. The 30-year-old Cedeno is an eight-year veteran with a career .247 batting average while playing for four different teams: the Chicago Cubs, Seattle Mariners, Pittsburgh Pirates and New York Mets. At best, he's been an inconsequential player on irrelevant teams. The Cardinals aren't an irrelevant team, and something will have to go terribly wrong if Cedeno sees much playing time. The team has Furcal penciled in to be the everyday shortstop, and Pete Kozma would seem to be a fairly solid back-up option given his .333 batting average in 26 games at the end of last season. In many ways, the Cardinals had no need for Cedeno unl...

MOUNT PLEASANT, S.C. — Former South Carolina governor Mark Sanford's political comeback already hinged on persuading conservative voters in the state's Lowcountry to forgive him for past infidelity and political mistakes. Now he'll have to do it with his ex-wife accusing him of repeatedly trespassing in her home.
That revelation prompted the National Republican Congressional Committee to pull its support from the campaign Wednesday, a day after the Associated Press obtained court documents detailing the accusations from Sanford's former wife, Jenny.

SPOKANE -- The Spokane Shock and Tampa Bay Storm are both storied franchises, but they've found success of different levels.
Winning is nothing new for Spokane. The Shock played in three ArenaCup games in four seasons while they were in the af2. The Shock won two of those championship games.
Spokane moved up the Arena Football League this season and still found plenty of success. They went 13-3 in the regular season, won two more games in the postseason, and will play in their first ArenaBowl on Friday.
Winning is nothing new to Tampa Bay either. The Storm are making their seventh ArenaBowl appearance. They've already won five titles in the past. The only championship game they lost happened in 1998.
That means it's the new kids on the block (Spokane) against the old timers (Tampa Bay) on Friday. Kickoff is scheduled for 5pm at Veterans Memorial Arena. The game will be televised on the NFL Network.
The Storm flew into town late Wednesday. They'll hold their first practice in the arena on Thursday. They'll also be available to the media. Stay tuned to KREM 2 News and KREM.com for the latest on Tampa Bay.
As of Wednesday evening, there were less than 200 tickets remaining for the game. The Shock plan on opening up 140 more "standing room only" tickets as well.

Ethics and New Creation
2 Corinthians 5:17 (NRSV)
So if anyone is in Christ, there is a new creation: everything old has passed away; see, everything has become new!
Richard Hays, The Moral Vision of the New Testament: A Contemporary Introduction to New Testament Ethics (HarperOne, 1996), page 20:
The apocalyptic scope of 2 Corinthians 5 was obscured by older translations that rendered the crucial phrase in verse 17 as "he is a new creation" (RSV) or — worse yet — "he is a new creature" (KJV). Such translations seriously distort Paul's meaning by making it appear that he is describing only the personal transformation of the individual through conversion experience. The sentence in Greek, however, lacks both subject and verb; a very literal translation might treat the words "new creation" as an exclamatory interjection: "If anyone is in Christ — new creation!"
The NRSV has rectified matters by rendering the passage, "If anyone is in Christ there is a new creation." Paul is not merely talking about an individual's subjective experience of renewal through conversion; rather, for Paul, "creation" refers to the whole create order (Rom. 8:18–25). He is proclaiming the apocalyptic message that through the cross God has nullified the kosmos of sin and death and brought a new kosmos into being. That is why Paul can describe himself and his readers as those "on whom the ends of the ages has met" (1 Cor. 10:11). The old age is passing away (cf. 1 Cor. 7:31b), the new age has appeared in Christ, and the church stands at the juncture between them.
Ethics course with John Frame
Thanks to Dr. Richard Pratt and his organization thirdmill.org a number of seminary-level courses are available online (for free) and ethics with Frame is one of the offerings. Titled "Making Biblical Decisions" the 10-part course is nearly 10 hours in length and includes the following sessions:
- Ethics in Scripture
- Normative Perspective: God and His Word
- Normative Perspective: The Attributes of Scripture
- Normative Perspective: Parts and Aspects of Scripture
- The Situational Perspective: Revelation and Situation
- Situational Perspective: Pursuing Our Goal
- Situational Perspective: Understanding the Facts
- The Existential Perspective: Being Good
- The Existential Perspective: Intending Good
- Existential Perspective: Choosing Good
The lectures are all currently available as video downloads and many of them are available as mp3 audio downloads, too. But getting to the files can be like buttoning the cuff of a shirt sleeve. Here's how to find them: Click here and let the page fully load. Then look for the link that reads "Making Biblical Decisions" (see near the bottom of the left-hand column).
On a related note, Frame is the author of a very helpful textbook on ethics, The Doctrine of the Christian Life (1,100 pages!). It's worth owning and reading carefully.

Flashy top! My wife's favorite top for the cold weather runs. There is no longer a need to layer in bulk for the cold temps (30 and below). She is 5'7, 140 pounds and wears a medium. It is a form fitting shirt, but doesn't constrain as she runs. Definitely a keeper.

This camera is a great buy. My son has used it for snowboarding. The chest mount harness doesn't work the best for snowboarders, because you would only get a side view. The helmet mount was a better fit. However, the camera did not hold with original adhesive but was reinforced with a stronger adhesive and hasn't fallen off.
The editing of photos and videos on your computer are straight forward. You can easily publish to YouTube and take frame shots. Not a lot of voice recording is captured, but the pictures are great. Captures pictures that I wouldn't normally get.

These things fit the bill for a couple of needs I have: 1) I have the bed rider bike rack in the bed of my truck - these are really the only things that work with that set up. 2) When going to an event sometimes we transport more bikes than what will reasonably fit in the bed of a truck so these mount easily to to the deck of a flat bed trailer or on the inside of a covered trailer. Quick to set up. Holds bikes securely. Just what is needed for many of my bike transport needs.

These things are awesome! I wasn't sold on the look at first, but once I put them on any style concern I had went out the window. These are way too comfortable. I wouldn't wear them for anything active, but for kicking around the house, about the office, or strolling through the neighborhood this is the footwear of choice. Also, they really are kind of a warm weather thing; snow, ice, rain and so on aren't so awesome in them.

'What about McDonald's in the Pentagon?: Extraordinary top secret call between FBI and Scotland Yard 'tapped' by Anonymous
Hacking group made extraordinary recording of January conference call
Included discussion about prosecution of hackers linked to Anonymous
They published top secret email 'sent by FBI agent' giving call passcode
Also take over Boston police dept and Greek Ministry of Justice website
Shows growing influence of group making fools of law enforcement
A confidential call between the FBI and Scotland Yard was recorded by hacking group Anonymous - the very people they were trying to catch, it was revealed today.
The group released a 15-minute tape of what appears to be a conference call last month about tracking and prosecuting the group's members.
The top-secret conversation begins with a bizarre exchange between the U.S. and British agents, where they talk about cheese and eating 'McDonald's at the Pentagon'.
Scroll down for video
It is not known whether cheese and McDonald's are codenames or if the transcript simply reveals what is really at the top of the list of priorities of our law enforcement officers.
There is also one point when 'Bruce', the U.S. agent, says to the British agent 'Stuart': 'I'm not sure if we're the only two on right now or not'.
Anonymous also published a top secret email apparently sent by an FBI agent, which gave details and a password for accessing the call.
The cyber raid is the most audacious and sinister yet to be carried out by the shadowy hacking group and shows how powerful Anonymous has become.
And in a display of their growing reach, Anonymous also claimed credit for defacing the website of the police force in Boston, Massachusetts, hours after attacking the Greek Ministry of Justice site.
'The FBI might be curious how we're able to continuously read their internal comms for some time now,' the group gloated on Twitter.
The recording, which has since been verified by the FBI, appears to have been edited to bleep out the names of some suspects being discussed.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation said the information 'was intended for law enforcement officers only and was illegally obtained.'
'A criminal investigation is under way to identify and hold accountable those responsible,' the law-enforcement bureau added.
'The matter is being investigated by the FBI. At this stage no operational risks to the MPS have been identified - however, we continue to carry out a full assessment.'
Amid the material published by Anonymous was a message purportedly sent by an FBI agent to international law enforcement agencies.
It invites his foreign counterparts to join the call to 'discuss the on-going investigations related to Anonymous and other associated splinter groups'.
The email to officials in the UK, Ireland, the Netherlands, Sweden and France had a phone number and password for accessing the call.
But only American and British officials can be heard on the recording. Neither the FBI agent nor others coded in on the call have commented.
They also discuss evidence against other suspects. Karen Todner, a lawyer for Cleary, said the recording could be 'incredibly sensitive'.
She warned the breach could derail police work. 'If they haven't secured their email it could potentially prejudice the investigation,' she said.
Anonymous is an amorphous collection of online enthusiasts, pranksters and activists whose targets have included the Church of Scientology.
Following a spate of arrests globally, the group and its various offshoots have focused their attention on law enforcement, especially the FBI.
Data security expert Graham Cluley said hackers were able to eavesdrop on the call because they had compromised an investigator's emails.
'The very people that (police) are trying to apprehend, could have been tuning in to their internal conversations,' he wrote in a blog post.
Meanwhile, a message posted on the Boston police website on Friday said: 'Anonymous hacks Boston Police website in retaliation for police brutality at OWS (Occupy Wall Street)'.
Boston's Occupy movement set up camp in the city's financial district for two months last autumn, but police dismantled it in December, citing public health and safety concerns.

A-line with Chiffon Split Front Overlay Style V9010 222 229
Classic I identified this dress through online searching so I knew it was one I wanted to try on. I loved the classic look of it. I'm a bit old fashioned and while I don't have the horse drawn carriage I have the dress that fits that vision. The most amazing part I feel is the back detail...simply put it is stunning. I did not want anything modern and this fit perfectly. I still haven't decided on whether or not I'll use the sleeves but I like the option for with or without. I can't wait to wear it! February 17, 2012
None better!!! I am 6 mos. pregnant, and was afraid I couldn't find the right dress to accompany my big belly. I had found this dress on the David's Bridal site, saw it was available at the store near me, and in the size I need too. When I got to the store, the first dress I went to pick out was this dress! It was the first I tried on, and it fits perfectly. I was torn between this and another dress, but when I found out it was the last one they had, I knew it was mine!!! I get married in 2 weeks and I can't think of a better gown to be in for my big day! February 17, 2012
Love..Love...Love This Dress!!! I tried on about 10 dresses and was almost done looking and thne my mom and MOH found this dress on the rack and made me try it on. When I came out of the dressing room everyone started to cry! I knew this was the ONE! It was very comfortable and just plain beautiful! I am not getting married until April of next year so I cannot wait until my wedding day to wear this dress!! February 13, 2012
Figure flattering I bought this dress. I love it. It is very flattering to any figure. February 2, 2012

Climbing in Emgwenya
Mpumalanga's Emgwenya is one of South Africa's best rock climbing destinations. Explore over 500 sport climbs ranging from easy to very difficult on mostly vertical rock faces, some with overhangs and overlaps. Unlike climbing destinations elsewhere in the world, here you'll find good weather nearly all year round.
Waterval Boven ('above the waterfall' in the original Dutch), now renamed Emgwenya ('place of the crocodile' in Zulu), is a place of vertical quartzite crags and cliffs, perfect for technical endurance climbing. You'll need precision footwork and strong fingers for any of over 500 climbs.
Unlike many other climbing destinations, the mostly ideal weather conditions make for enjoyable rock climbing all year round. As Emgwenya is nearly 1 800m above sea level, it rarely gets too hot. An added bonus is that most of the crags are in the shade by midday as they are east and south-east facing.
The evocative names of the climbs will soon get your adrenalin flowing. At Sport Valley near the main gate of the Elandskrans Mountain Resort choose between 5-star classics or for a very easy, popular 8-15m climb, have a go at Flying is Fun.
The Coven also hosts some classics with improbable demonic names such as Lucifer Goes to the Gunks, Screaming Demons and Shout at the Devil.
The Waterfall Crags, as their name suggests, lie alongside the waterfall and offer some exhilarating climbs. Sorcery is a very popular climb because of its Kodak moment with the waterfall in the background. For a longer route (up to 35m) get to The Last Crag of the Century which has several 5-star routes. Insiders say that the very best Emgwenya routes are 19, 22, 23 and 26.
Fancy trainspotting as you climb? Then try The East End. To get there you have to walk through a train tunnel. If a train comes along, press flat against the side of the tunnel. Apparently it's quite safe but incredibly terrifying.

|Mi biografía
I've been a photographer for over forty years, enjoying extensive traveling around the world. Photography is so fascinating to me because one never stops learning. My cameras are like extra limbs because I carry them everywhere. I teach photography and belong to the Professional Photographers of Washington. I've turned to use completely digital equipment, although I still have my darkroom. I
shoot portraits in black and white, but all my scenics have been in color and I love sharing them. "So little time, so many beautiful images to make".

i thought of you, while in the shower
and i thought of how nice it'd be
to have your things among my things
along the bathtub's edge
and i imagined myself running out of soap
and using yours
and wearing you to work, and the grocery store
and i imagined that night, laying down beside you
and smelling your neck
and finding out where all my soap had gone
I began to draw an invisible boundary between myself and other people. No matter who I was dealing with. I maintained a set distance, carefully monitoring the person's attitude so that they wouldn't get any closer. I didn't easily swallow what other people told me. My only passions were books and music.

SEATTLE (AP) — More people were living in poverty in Washington state in 2013 than in 2012, even as the numbers remained steady across the nation. That's according to new figures being released Thursday by the U.S. Census Bureau.

NEW YORK (AP) — A familiar face — former cast member Darrell Hammond — is taking over for a familiar voice at "Saturday Night Live." For all but one year of the NBC show's 40-year history, it was Pardo's voice that would announce the host, musical guest and cast members every week, and he continued the job even after he retired to Arizona. Pardo died at age 96 on Aug. 18.

NEW YORK (AP) — The U.S. stock market headed higher Thursday as investors received more encouraging news on the economy. The slight gains come a day after the Federal Reserve signaled that it's in no rush to raise interest rates. JOBS: Fewer Americans filed first-time claims for unemployment benefits last week, according to the Labor Department. Weekly applications fell 36,000 to 280,000, well below economists' forecasts. The four-week average, a less-volatile measure, also dropped.
James Clapper said he spoke in error about NSA surveillance as he rolls out new intel strategy
3 hours ago
WASHINGTON (AP) — James Clapper, the director of national intelligence, denied Thursday that he lied to Congress about government surveillance last year, and he rolled out a new national intelligence strategy that includes principles of ethics for intelligence officers. Clapper said he misspoke when he denied in a Senate hearing last year that the U.S. was collecting data on millions of Americans. Leaks by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden subsequently showed the National Security Agency has been gathering and storing American telephone calling records for years.
