Born on the 1st April 1832, (at Llanarth, Monmouth), he was the third son of Captain William Henry Nares. He was Vicar of St Twynnell's, in Pembrokeshire, from 1859-1866 and also Minor Canon of St David's from 1859. In 1879 the Bishop of St David's appointed him as the vicar of St Michael and All Angels in Kerry, Nr Newtown in Montgomeryshire (even though by that time the parish was in the Diocese of St Asaph, the living was within the patronage of the Bishop of St David's) on the understanding that he would undertake the restoration of the church. An architect's report on the condition of the building, which dated from 1176, stated that it was in a very delapidated and unsatisfactory condition and advised that it should be demolished and replaced with a new building! Fortunately, a later inspection by the eminent architect, George Street, recommended restoration, and this major project, started in 1881, was finished in 1883. Owen remained as Vicar until 1897.
"The Moat", Kerry,
Montgomeryshire, Wales
Emily (Lewellin) Nares
He married Emily Lewellin, who was born in Lampeter in 1833 and whose father was the Dean of St David's.
They lived in a house just outside the village, called "The
Moat". They had 3 sons and 3 daughters.

It appears that Emily was an enthusiastic amateur watercolourist, and a collection of 126 of her paintings was recently discovered by Miles Wynn Cato, a London based art dealer specializing in Welsh Art, who kindly sent us the example below. She died on 21 Jan 1909.
Owen moved to Parkwood Road, Boscombe, Nr Bournemouth, (presumably after the death of his wife in order to be closer to his daughter, Francis, who lived in Highcliffe) and died on 12th May 1916.

Stanley Lord (September 13th, 1877 – January 24th, 1962) was captain of the SS Californian, a ship that was in the vicinity of the RMS Titanic the night it sank on April 15th, 1912.
Early life
Lord was born on September 13th, 1877 in Bolton, Lancashire, England. He began his training at sea when he was thirteen, aboard the Braque Naiad, in March 1891. He later obtained his Second Mate's Certificate of competency and served as Second Officer in the Braque Lurlei.
In February 1901, at the age of 23, Lord obtained his Master's Certificate, and three months later, obtained his Extra Master's Certificate. He entered the service of the West India and Pacific Steam Navigation Company in 1897. The company was taken over by the Leyland Line in 1900, but Lord continued service with the new company, and was awarded his first command in 1906.[1]
Lord was given full command of the SS Californian in 1911.
Before the disaster
On the night of April 14th, 1912; as the Californian approached a large ice field, Captain Lord decided to stop around 10:21 PM and wait out the night. Before turning in for the night, he ordered his sole wireless operator, Cyril Evans, to warn other ships in the area about the ice. When reaching the Titanic, Evans tapped out "I say old man, we are stopped and surrounded by ice." The Californian was so close to the Titanic that the message was very loud in the ears of Titanic First Wireless Operator Jack Phillips, who angrily replied "Shut up! Shut up! I am busy. I am working Cape Race." Earlier in the day the wireless equipment aboard the Titanic had broken down and Phillips, along with Second Wireless Operator Harold Bride, had spent the better part of the day trying to repair it. Now they were swamped with outgoing messages that had piled up during the day. Phillips was exhausted after such a long day. Evans listened in for a while longer as Phillips sent routine traffic through the Cape Race relaying station before finally turning in for bed after a very long day at around 11:30 PM.
During the night
Over the course of the night, various officers and seamen on the deck of Leyland Liner Californian witnessed white rockets being fired into the air over a strange ship off in the distance, totaling eight in all.
Exhausted after 17 hours on duty, Captain Lord was awakened twice during the night, and told about the rockets to which he replied that they may be "company rockets", to help ships identify themselves to liners of the same company.
Meanwhile on the Titanic, for an hour after the collision, no other ships were noticed until the lights of a ship were seen in the distance and Fourth Officer Boxhall and Quartermaster Rowe tried in vain to contact the strange ship by Morse lamp. Nobody on the deck of the Californian saw these signals, however they had also tried to signal the mystery ship, but were unable to get a response.
Not able to understand any messages coming from the strange ship, Californian`s officers eventually concluded that signals were merely the masthead flickering and not signals at all.
Throughout the night, no one on board the Californian attempted to wake their wireless operator, and ask him to contact the ship to ask why they were firing rockets and trying to signal them, until 5:30 AM. By then however it was too late— the Titanic had gone down at 2:20. When she had slipped below the water, the sudden disappearance of lights was interpreted by the Californian crew as the other liner steaming on her way.
Search and recovery
On Monday morning, Captain Lord was notified by the Frankfurt that the Titanic had gone down early that morning. At 5:45 that morning, the Californian pulled up alongside the Carpathia and stayed behind to search for additional bodies after the Carpathia steamed towards New York.
Lord's testimony
The following is from Captain Lord's testimony in the US Inquiry on April 26th:
- "When I came off the bridge, at half past 10, I pointed out to the officer that I thought I saw a light coming along, and it was a most peculiar light, and we had been making mistakes all along with the stars, thinking they were signals. We could not distinguish where the sky ended and where the water commenced. You understand, it was a flat calm. He said he thought it was a star, and I did not say anything more. I went down below. I was talking with the engineer about keeping the steam ready, and we saw these signals coming along, and I said "There is a steamer passing. Let us go to the wireless and see what the news is." But on our way down I met the operator coming, and I said, "Do you know anything?" He said, "The Titanic."
So, then, I gave him instructions to let the Titanic know. I said, "This is not the Titanic; there is no doubt about it." She came and lay at half past 11, alongside of us until, I suppose, a quarter past, within 4 miles of us. We could see everything on her quite distinctly, see her lights. We signaled her, at half past 11, with the Morse lamp. She did not take the slightest notice of it. That was between half past 11 and 20 minutes to 12. We signaled her again at 10 minutes past 12, half past 12, a quarter to 1 o'clock. We have a very powerful Morse lamp. I suppose you can see that about 10 miles, and she was about 4 miles off, and she did not take the slightest notice of it. When the second officer came on the bridge, at 12 o'clock, or 10 minutes past 12, I told him to watch that steamer, which was stopped, and I pointed out the ice to him; told him we were surrounded by ice; to watch the steamer that she did not get any closer to her. At 20 minutes to 1 I whistled up the speaking tube and asked him if she was getting any nearer. He said, "No; she is not taking any notice of us." So, I said "I will go and lie down a bit." At a quarter past he said, "I think she has fired a rocket." He said, "She did not answer the Morse lamp and she has commenced to go away from us." I said, "Call her up and let me know at once what her name is. So, he put the whistle back, and, apparently, he was calling. I could hear him ticking over my head. Then l went to sleep."
Lord was dismissed by the Leyland Line in August of the same year. So far as any negligence of the SS Californian's officers and crew was concerned, the conclusions of both the United States Inquiry and the British Inquiry seemed to disapprove of the actions of Captain Lord but stopped short of recommending charges. While both Inquiries censured the S.S. Californian, they did not directly censure the individuals who were on the ship.
Neither did they make any recommendations for an official investigation to ascertain if Captain Lord was guilty of offences under the Merchant Shipping Acts. Lord was not allowed to be represented at either the US or British inquiry — he was called to give evidence before he knew that he was to become a target for criticism, but having answered questions which were later interpreted to cast blame on him, he was denied the opportunity of speaking in his own defence.
While Lord was never tried or convicted of any offence, he was still viewed, publicly, as a pariah. In any case, the events of the night of 14–15 April 1912 would haunt him for the rest of his life and he would spend his remaining days attempting to fight for his exoneration.
In February 1913, with help from a Leyland director who believed he had been unfairly treated, Captain Lord was hired by the Nitrate Producers Steamship Co., where he remained until March 1927, resigning for health reasons. In 1955, following the release of Walter Lord's (no relation) book A Night to Remember and the subsequent film of the same name, Stanley Lord was embarrassed at his portrayal in the movie and attempted to promote his own version of events. In 1958, he contacted the Mercantile Marine Service Association in Liverpool and said "I am Lord of the Californian and I have come to clear my name." The association's general secretary, Mr. Leslie Harrison, took up the case for him and petitioned the Board of Trade on his behalf. However, as Lord had no new evidence, his petition was rejected in 1965 and was followed by a second petition in 1968, which was also rejected.
The discovery of the remains of the Titanic on the sea bed, in 1985, neither confirmed nor denied Captain Lord's culpability. While the position of the wreck makes it clear that the S.O.S position given after the iceberg collision by the Titanic's fourth officer, Joseph Boxhall, was off by 13 miles, strong undersea currents, as well as the Titanic's hydrodynamics underwater, could account for the Titanic resting far from the actual position where it slipped beneath the water.
At both of the Titanic inquiries, in 1912, there had been some conflict about the true position of the ship when it sank. The conclusions of the 1912 inquiries discounted the evidence of uncertainty about the position of the Titanic. At the time, some assumed that the position which Captain Lord had given, for his ship, was incorrect and that he was actually much closer to the Titanic than he claimed to be. However, the entries in the Californian's scrap log logbook referring to the night in question had been removed, seen as overwhelming proof that Lord deliberately destroyed evidence in order to cover his crime of ignoring a distress call. While modifying a ship's log or removing pages is a serious violation of maritime law, no charges were ever brought for that breach.
A re-appraisal by the UK Government, instigated informally in 1988 and published in 1992 by the Marine Accident Investigation Branch (MAIB), further implicated the consequences of Lord's inaction. Among its conclusions were that the Titanic's international distress signal of three white rockets fired in sequence had indeed been sighted by the Californian's crew, and by maritime law should have been investigated. Another conclusion stated that, had Lord rushed towards the distress signals that fateful night, the ship would have arrived in time to perhaps save another 200 passengers. What has never been satisfactorily resolved was why Captain Lord did not simply wake his radio operator and listen for any distress signals.
Maritime Historian, Daniel Allen Butler, in his 2009 book The Other Side of Night: The Carpathia, the Californian, and the night Titanic was Lost alleges that Captain Lord's personality and temperament — his behaviour at both inquiries, his threatening of his crew, his frequent changing of his story, lying under oath at both inquiries, the absence of the scrap log book, and an odd remark made by Lord in Boston in a newspaper interview: "It is all foolishness for anybody to say that I, at the point of a revolver, took any man into this room and made him swear to tell any kind of story." - point to Lord's having some sort of mental illness. His lack of compassion — never once expressing grief at the loss of Titanic or sorrow for those who had lost family when she sank, is, claims Butler, a diagnosis of Sociopathy. [2]
Captain Lord died on January 24th, 1962; aged 84, almost half a century after the sinking of the Titanic. He is buried in Wallasey Cemetery, Merseyside.
In "101 Things You Thought You Knew About the Titanic...But Didn't" authors Tim Maltin and Eloise Aston attribute Captain Lord's belief that the nearby ship was not the Titanic to cold-water mirages.

The humidity of the summer is finally giving us a bit of a break in Maine. When the humidity level dies down my family and I love to get outdoors. Don't get me wrong, we are outside when it is hot hot hot, but more at the pool then rather than hiking.
I got my new iPhone 6 a couple weeks ago. I love it. Can I say that? I am kind of a geek when it comes to new technology (I blame this on my brother), and so having the new iPhone is a huge treat for me.
My family loves to get outside for hikes and bike rides, and having my phone helps me to feel so much more comfortable with the planning stages of being out where there isn't much technology. Features like the flashlight and compass are huge helps when out hiking (or if I am trying to sneak through my bedroom without waking the baby!).
I always try to be as prepared as I can be when we go anywhere. I have my first aid kit, lots of water and snacks, rain jackets and umbrellas, change of clothes; but when we are in the woods, sometimes we need a little extra help. That is where my phone comes in handy. I don't have to carry as much stuff because a lot of it can stay right on my phone, easily accessible.
Top 5 Apps for Outdoor Adventures
1.) Army Survival Guide: Nothing beats good planning, however, there is so much information out there, to have it right at your fingertips is amazing. The Army Survival Guide works both on and offline, and offers information on survival planning, shelters, water and food procurement, starting a fire and much more.
2.) GaiaGPS: Let's be honest here, we all use GPS to get directions these days! Gaia GPS is a free app that offers the full functionality of a back country GPS unit. You can record tracks and way points and search for nearby waypoints and then read reports about the different places.
3.) AllTrails: This app is awesome! You are able to browse through guides for 50,000 trails across North America! It provides photos and reviews for all kinds of different activities from biking to fly fishing. You can also track all of your adventures and share them with friends.
4.) National Parks Field Guide: This is an interactive field guide for the wildlife and plants in 100 US National Parks. It also lists all the important sites, hours, prices, etc. of the different parks.
5.) UnitedStates Coast Guard: This free app provides state boating information. It also includes a safety equipment checklist, navigation rules and float plans. It also offers tools to call for help if you need it.
Having these apps available on a reliable network is important. US Cellular's 4G LTE network keeps you covered nationwide.

Holliday leads biggest comeback ever
Published 4:00 am, Tuesday, July 21, 2009
What has been a particularly forgettable season for the A's was interrupted by one of the most memorable games in club history at the Coliseum on Monday night.
The A's came back from 10 runs down to beat the Twins 14-13 and record the largest comeback in Oakland history.
Matt Holliday hit two homers and two doubles and drove in six in a game that included two grand slams among eight homers, two players who hit multiple long balls and a black cat trying to join the action.
"It was fun," A's manager Bob Geren said. "It really was. Win or lose, it was awesome when you think about it."
The final two homers were on consecutive pitches in the seventh inning. Holliday crushed a Bobby Keppel offering for a game-tying grand slam. A pitch later, Jack Cust greeted Jose Mijares with a solo shot that gave the A's a 14-13 lead and completed a comeback from down 12-2.
"Holliday's was the biggest home run we've had this season," Geren said. "But even before that, people in our dugout were genuinely feeling that this could happen."
Twice in Oakland history, the A's had overcome eight-run deficits to win. They beat Kansas City 10-9 on June 18, 1993, and beat Toronto 12-10 on Aug. 21, 2006.
The A's scored seven runs off three relievers in the seventh inning to make up for an outing during which starter Gio Gonzalez gave up 11 runs and exited to a chorus of boos after 22/3 innings.
Holliday and Minnesota's Justin Morneau each had grand slams and each had two homers. A cat streaked across the outfield during the eighth inning, but the players barely reacted on a night full of similar zaniness.
The game ended on a play at the plate, as the Twins' Michael Cuddyer was thrown out - catcher Kurt Suzuki to pitcher Michael Wuertz - trying to score from second after a wild pitch. Umpire Mike Muchlinski called out Cuddyer, who appeared to be safe.
"I don't know if he was out, but I'm glad he called him out," Cust said.
The sleep-deprived Twins, who arrived in the Bay Area after 3 a.m. Monday, took out their grumpiness on Gonzalez's pitches. They had 10 hits, including four homers, off Gonzalez and took a 12-2 lead before Santiago Casilla got the A's out of the third inning.
The middle of Minnesota's lineup - Morneau, Cuddyer and Jason Kubel - went 10-for-13 with all four of the team's homeruns and 12 of its 13 RBIs.
The A's had lost 14 of their last 21 games with mounting pitching problems. Oakland starters not named Brett Anderson have gone 0-6 with a 9.53 ERA since July 6.
Gonzalez didn't look comfortable in this 89-pitch outing, appearing fidgety on the mound and going to three-ball counts against three of the first five hitters. Each of the three reached safely, including Kubel who hammered a 3-2 fastball into the right-center-field seats for a 3-0 lead.
Morneau hit a grand slam on a 3-2 fastball in the second inning, Cuddyer followed with a solo shot to left to make it 8-2, and a crowd of 10,283 mockingly cheered Gonzalez when he got Delmon Young to ground out and end the inning.
The Twins have 11 homers in the last six games. Morneau's second homer of the game, a three-run shot to right in the third inning, spelled the end of Gonzalez's night.
But not the end of the A's.
Oakland had a season-high 22 hits and a season-high 14 runs.
The A's scored on a Scott Hairston groundout and a Kurt Suzuki single in the first, got two more on a homer by Daric Barton in the third and a two-run shot by Holliday in the fourth.

Sally Roberts's brave fight to be allowed to determine her son's treatment for cancer has been a landmark case for survivors of childhood cancer and she is to be applauded (Mother loses court battle over son's treatment, 22 December). She has lost her personal case, but inadvertently has succeeded in raising awareness of what many long-term survivors of childhood cancer call the greatest secret, or cover-up, in medicine: the issue of the long-term effects of treatment. These effects can be life-threatening and lifelong.
With the pronouncement that a mother, the main carer, cannot decide treatment, health services now have a duty to provide lifelong additional support for these patients – which at present is often woefully inadequate. Doctors have been forced in this case to be far more honest about possible risks than they have been before, putting patients' future health at greater risk by this omission. There are good practices and experts in this field, conferences held regularly to discuss these issues, and a new guideline for follow-up of survivors has been developed and will be published in January, under the banner of the Scottish Intercollegiate Guideline Network.
Let's hope there is now far more recognition of the dangers of these treatments, so that prevention of cancers arising in the first place, especially in this most vulnerable group, receives much higher priority. Treatments can indeed be successful – I have lived over 50 years since treatment myself – but surely, as the mother is the main carer, and is looking at the long-term future, she has the right to choose those treatments.

mzMatch/PeakML: metabolomics data analysis
mzMatch is a modular, open source and platform independent data processing pipeline for metabolomics LC/MS
data written in the Java language. It was designed
to provide small tools for the common processing tasks for LC/MS data. The mzMatch environment was based
entirely on the PeakML file format and core library, which provides a common framework for all the tools.
With the introduction of the PeakML file format, the tools can share their data output with the other software.
This means that we can integrate with other tools, for which we provide a first
implementation integration mzMatch with XCMS.

Motorola Mobility Wins Ruling on Microsoft Xbox Patents
Motorola Mobility Holdings Inc. (MMI) won a U.S. International Trade Commission judge's ruling that bolsters its chances of blocking imports of Microsoft Corp. (MSFT)'s Xbox gaming system from entering the U.S.
ITC Judge David Shaw said yesterday that Microsoft was violating four of five Motorola Mobility patents. The judge's findings are subject to review by the six-member commission, which has the power to ban imports that infringe U.S. patents. A second judge at the ITC delayed until today issuing his findings in a separate Motorola Mobility case against Apple Inc. (AAPL)
The ruling gives Motorola Mobility leverage in its patent fights with Microsoft that may force settlement talks to avoid an Xbox import ban. Motorola Mobility filed in retaliation for Microsoft lodging patent-infringement claims against Motorola Mobility phones that run on Google Inc. (GOOG)'s Android operating system, the most popular platform for mobile devices.
"Microsoft continues to infringe Motorola Mobility's patent portfolio, and we remain confident in our position," said Becki Leonard, a spokeswoman for Motorola Mobility, in an e-mailed statement. "This case was filed in response to Microsoft's litigate-first patent attack strategy, and we look forward to the full commission's ruling in August."
The commission has set a target of completing the investigation by Aug. 23. A separate judge at the agency found that Motorola Mobility infringed one of seven Microsoft patents. The commission is reviewing that determination, and is scheduled to release its decision May 18.
Review Pending
Motorola Mobility contends that three of the four patents found to be infringed relate to industry-established standards covering Wi-Fi technology and video decoding. Motorola Mobility took part in establishing those standards in return for a pledge to license any standard-essential patents on fair and reasonable terms.
Microsoft had sought to delay Shaw's decision until a federal judge in Seattle can rule on the software maker's claims that Motorola Mobility breached its licensing obligations. A hearing in the Seattle case is scheduled for May 7. Shaw, in his one-page synopsis of his findings, said Microsoft had not prevailed in its arguments.
Microsoft, which has pledged to never seek a legal ban on products that infringe standard-essential patents, said it would be vindicated once the six-member commission reviews the case.
Commission Process
The recommendation by the administrative law judge "is the first step in the process leading to the commission's final ruling," Microsoft said in an e-mailed statement. "We remain confident the commission will ultimately rule in Microsoft's favor in this case and that Motorola will be held to its promise to make its standard-essential patents available on fair and reasonable terms."
Motorola Mobility, the Libertyville, Illinois-based creator of the consumer market for mobile phones with the DynaTAC 8000X that cost $4,000 in 1983, has a portfolio of more than 17,000 patents. Google has agreed to pay $12.5 billion to buy Motorola Mobility.
Motorola Mobility contends that Microsoft is infringing two patents that cover aspects of an industry standard for video decoding, two for Wi-Fi technology and a fifth patent on a way that to establish communication between the Xbox and accessories. The second Wi-Fi patent wasn't infringed, and one aspect of one of the video-coding patents was invalid, the judge said.
Royalty Demand
Shaw won't release the full findings until both sides get a chance to redact confidential information.
Motorola Mobility sent letters to Microsoft demanding a 2.25 percent royalty on the end price of products that use the inventions, including the Xbox and Windows products. The entertainment division, which includes sales of the Xbox, generated $8.9 billion in global sales in fiscal 2011, about 13 percent of Microsoft's review.
Microsoft, based in Redmond, Washington, has challenged Motorola Mobility's right to bring patents that the company says cover essential aspects of an industry standard in a case at the agency. Microsoft has accused Motorola Mobility of violating its commitment to license those patents on "reasonable and non- discriminatory" terms.
Suit Filed
The software maker filed the Seattle breach-of-contract lawsuit against Motorola Mobility before the ITC case was filed. Microsoft claimed that Motorola Mobility's demand, if met, would result in $4 billion a year in royalties.
Motorola Mobility said the numbers were misleading. It said the offer is typical of those it makes to start negotiations and Microsoft never made a counter-offer.
"Motorola is saying, 'If you want to go to war with me, that's ok, but then you can't say I should play nice in the sandbox," Tom Scott, a patent lawyer with Goodwin Procter in Washington, said before the findings were released. "There really isn't a standard for fair, reasonable and non- discriminatory."
The European Union is investigating complaints by Microsoft and Apple that Motorola Mobility is unfairly using standard- essential patents to block competition.
The standards are established to ensure products work together across platforms to let, for instance, a video be downloaded to a home computer, laptop and smartphone no matter who makes the electronic device. Manufacturers are limited in their ability to claim they don't infringe patents that are deemed critical to following an industry standard.
'Competitive Tool'
Microsoft has argued that, since the ITC has only the power to block imports and not to award cash damages, standard- essential patents shouldn't be part of infringement cases at the agency. The proper forum, Microsoft contends, is a district court that can resolve licensing disputes.
Motorola Mobility has called Microsoft's objections "a competitive tool rather than a principled objection." Last year, in a written statement to the U.S. Federal Trade Commission, Microsoft supported the right to assert standard- essential patents at the ITC.
In a March 15 letter to the Justice Department and the ITC, the Senate Judiciary Committee said it was concerned "that patent holders may choose to seek an exclusionary order from the ITC in a manner that would threaten competition, rather than simply dispute the reasonable terms of the license in court in a way that would allow continued use by competitors."
Legal Issue
The letter was signed by Senate Judiciary Chairman Patrick Leahy, a Vermont Democrat, and Wisconsin Democrat Herb Kohl, who heads the antitrust, competition policy and consumer rights subcommittee.
"It would surprise me if the end result is that they're precluded from practicing a standard," said David Long of Dow Lohnes in Washington, who specializes in telecommunications patents. "The question is how we get there."
The Motorola Mobility case against Microsoft is In the Matter of Gaming and Entertainment Consoles, 337-752 and the Microsoft case against Motorola Mobility is In the Matter of Mobile Devices, Associated Software and Components Thereof, 337-744, both U.S. International Trade Commission (Washington).

Rare breed of coffee bean on sale at Panama
Coffee connoisseurs in Dundalk have much to celebrate this week with news that Panama Coffee have unveiled some of the world's most expensive coffee beans, exclusively for sale at the café.
The exclusive Don Pachi Geisha coffee beans from Panama fetched €120 a pound last year, making it the second most expensive bean in the world.
"The bean is one of the most sought after by roasters and set a world record price last year," says Steven Egan of Panama Coffee. "The rich volcanic soils of Chiriqui make it an ideal location for coffee growing.
"The world renowned Geisha bean was brought to Panama from Ethiopia over 100 years ago and is famous for its rich taste, scoring 96 percent in tastings."
Stephen met with the farm owner Francisco Serracin in Panama and he was delighted to hear that Panama Coffee was the first place in Ireland to supply his coffee."
"You can now sample the coffee for just €4 a cup, which is at cost price. It's to give people the opportunity to get a taste!"
If you want to get a cup, you'd better hurry, as there is a limited supply.

Early voting for the 2013 elections begins next week, and so my interviews for this election season are coming to an end. I will have two interviews with HCC Trustee candidates next week, plus a little bit more, and that will be that until 2014, barring anything unexpected. This is Mayoral week, with the two candidates of interest in that race, plus a late Council interview. I doubt Mayor Annise Parker needs any introduction here. She's running for her third and final term as Mayor, having served as City Controller and At Large Council member for three terms each before that. I think we can all agree that Mayor Parker has faced numerous challenges and taken on a number of big issues in her two terms so far, from a massive budget shortfall caused by the 2008 economic implosion and a transit authority in crisis to a Chapter 42 revamp and large expansions of the city's bicycle network and curbside recycling program, and more. As you know, I am a supporter of Mayor Parker's, and I think she's accomplished quite a lot in her tenure. We certainly had plenty to talk about in the interview:
You can see all of my interviews as well as finance reports and other information on candidates on my 2013 Election page.

Story of the Odd and Addicted
(A/N:)This chapter sort of runs by too quickly. I don't like it too much but it touches in wormhole problems along with showing the abuse Cynthia gets from Madison. I'm still more than willing to hear ideas for the plot, pairings, and wormhole problems. R&R!
Chapter Two: You Are What You Eat
The walrus of an English teacher waddled up to the front of the room, "For Whom the Bell Tolls; a great book written by…anyone?"
Marshall's hand shot up, and the teacher called on him, "Ernest Hemingway."
"Correct." The teacher grinned, as he turned the Madison, "And Madison, do you know what quote the book gets its title from?"
"You've got to be joking," Madison rolled her eyes, as Marshall shot his hand up again.
"'Therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.' A quote from John Donne." Marshall answered.
"Correct again, Mr. Wheeler. And can anyone depict this cryptic quote? Cynthia."
Cynthia's head had been buried in her arms for the entire period—the whole stealing the final keys were really downing her, "Um…well the bell is sort of like death. Like, church bells toll to announce deaths, so it basically means that don't ask who has died, because you're going to die yourself, soon."
"That is…correct," The teacher was stunned for a moment, as was the rest of the class.
Madison gave her a sharp look—it wasn't good to look smart in class, not for the reputation Cynthia was going for anyway. Her mind was focused on her kleptomaniac type act that she had totally forgotten about that.
After class, Madison pulled her aside and slapped her, "You idiot! Not only did you answer a question, but you answered it correctly. You broke it down in front of everyone how you got that answer and…and…ugh!" she screeched.
"I'm sorry, I wasn't paying attention."
"Oh, you better not do it again. This could ruin your reputation—people will start thinking you're a geek that actually studies, and soon, you'll be stuck having to hang out with Trent."
Cassie came up and interrupted, "Actually, it'll be worse. They hate you, so you'll be even lower than them. Watch yourself."
Cynthia gulped and watched as her two friends walked away. Suddenly, two hands pulled her back, "Whoa! Corrine, Trent? What do you two want?" she scoffed.
"That answer you gave was incredible!"
"Whatever. It was on the finals and I happened to look over the answer when I was—"
"Stealing it? That was you!" Corrine gasped, "I'm so turning you in, I should've known."
Cynthia shrugged and walked off—even though her statement wasn't true, it was as Madison said. If you're going to leave a school, its better that you leave popular.
Brandy made her way up to Josie and Corrine, "What was that about?"
"She stole the answers to the finals!"
"I thought you were only going to compliment her answer," Brandy sighed.
"Yeah, but she stole that brilliant answer. She is so dead." Corrine said.
"Worse; she is so expelled." Josie said.
"Guys, you're not actually going to tell, are you?"
"Of course we are!"
"No buts, we have to head to class," Corrine said, speeding up her pace.
Brandy walked with her to their math class. After she sat down in her seat, she looked at the new kid in the corner of her eye. He was cute…she might talk to him sometime.
Brandy jumped as someone tapped her shoulder, she looked around, "C-Cynthia?"
"Hey loser, did you do the homework for this class?"
Brandy raised an eyebrow, "You can't have it."
"Come on I just want to copy it!"
Brandy gave her a glare and Cynthia gulped, "Or I could sit down." She turned and received a dirtier glare from Madison, "Please!"
"No." Brandy said through gritted teeth.
"She's going to kill me!"
"Why does it matter, you're going to be expelled for taking the test answers anyway."
"You know about that?" Cynthia asked shakily.
Brandy jutted a thumb to Corrine and Josie as Cynthia looked down, "Dammit."
"That's right, now leave me alone."
"I need those answers!"
"Then you should have done it."
"That won't make Madison happy; she needs me to take it from a geek."
"Well you're not getting it from me."
Cynthia bit her lip as the teacher came in. She quickly ran back to her seat, just to get a scolding from Madison.
The teacher's pursed lips cracked open to announce to the class that their lunch schedule would be changed today—unlike the usual split lunch they had, they would be eating before class so it didn't get in the way of a pre-final test they were taking.
A few students high fived each other as Madison dragged Cynthia to the cafeteria, "What is wrong with you today? Answering questions, not stealing homework; its like you don't even want to be my friend."
"I do Madison! Its just Trent's been teaching Brandy how to give lip."
"Oh, we'll change that." Madison smirked as she made people let her skip in line. After getting their food, they sat at a table on the far right side of the cafeteria—it was considered the 'in crowd' table, even though only three students sat there.
Cynthia started to shove fries in her mouth as Madison gave a disgusted look, "What are you doing?"
"Way too much,"
Cynthia chuckled a bit, "My mom calls me a bottomless pit."
"Well you're not—that food will disagree with you. I can't have a fat friend."
Cynthia stopped herself from mentioning how Madison was a bit chubby and smiled, "So, I should diet?"
"Starting now." Madison ordered, grabbing her food and dumping it in the trashcan.
Cynthia frowned a bit and looked down at her grumbling stomach—anything for Madison, right?
Unbeknownst to the students, the wormhole started to work its magic. Cynthia's stomach decreased slightly as she talked with Madison about her diet.
"Yes, nothing. You like to eat, and that's a problem. But if you eat nothing, then a week later, you can eat everything you want again. Just make sure to stop when that week is over."
"Isn't that purging…or something?"
"No, my aunt uses this method. It's really good because after you don't eat for so long, you don't even want too much food, it makes your stomach hurt."
"Well how long do I have to not eat?"
"Start off with about two weeks."
Cynthia gulped, as her stomach decreased again, "T-two whole weeks?"
"That's not too long. You'll still be able to eat a granola bar here and there to stop you from passing out."
Cynthia looked down at her feet; she did not consider this method safe.
After lunch, she went with Madison back to their math class and the day sped by after that. After the science club, Brandy walked in her dorm to see Cynthia with her shirt off, "Oh! Sorry!" she said, covering her eyes.
"Huh? Oh hey, loser. It's fine. Does it look like I've lost weight to you?"
"Do you…want to?" Brandy asked, "You weighed like 90 pounds before."
"I know, but Madison wanted me to start a diet…how long does it usually take for one to work?"
"Some take as short as a week, how long have you been on yours, you look sickly."
"…About four hours." Cynthia gulped.
Brandy furrowed her brows, "Okay…"
Cynthia's stomach decreased again and the two girls gasped.
"That's not healthy, man." Brandy said, sitting down.
Cynthia nodded, "Maybe…I just need some sleep." She said, shakily walking to her bed and falling asleep. She woke up two hours later feeling worse than usual, she threw the covers off and noticed she looked worse than anorexic.
"If I keep this up…I'll go out like a candle," she stated horrifically. She got up and walked out of her dorm, she had to eat something. It was hard to walk, her legs were nearly skin and bones and she felt weak and ready to pass out.
Cynthia sat down on the floor to take a rest as she heard two boys walking close.
"Help!" she yelled out.
The footsteps quickened and less than a second later, Lucas and Marshall were staring down at her in a terrified manner.
"Cynthia?" they asked in unison.
Cynthia nodded slightly, "Help…I need food."
"Come on." Marshall said, running off.
Lucas rolled his eyes and picked Cynthia up, he was smart enough to know she couldn't walk. He took her to the science lab hoping Z would know what to do.
"She was fine this morning," Z observed, walking up to her.
"Food." Cynthia groaned, as Z grabbed a snack bar from the drawer. He started to feed her and as hungry as she was, it was hard for her to take the food. Her stomach was small and didn't want to handle it, so he ended up force feeding her as Marshal ran from dorm to dorm, stealing as much food as he could get his hands on.
It didn't take long for Cynthia to get back to normal, "Thank you, so much." She smiled at the boys and they nodded.
Cynthia wasn't known to be nice to geeks, but when they save your life, what are you supposed to do?
"So, would you like to explain why you became a stick?" Z asked.
"I uh…went on a diet."
"What sort of diet?"
"An, eat nothing for two weeks diet." Cynthia smiled sheepishly.
"Cynthia, you don't need to go on a diet, plus not eating isn't healthy!"
"I've realized. I just didn't know it would become bad so quickly."
"Anything can happen at Black Hole High." Lucas said, as Cynthia gave him a weird look.
Z coughed, "Well, you know the saying you are what you eat? If you don't eat anything you become nothing."
"Literally," Cynthia laughed nervously.
"Yeah, are you feeling okay?" Z asked.
"Sort of. I feel like I can't walk from eating so much."
"Want me to carry you again?" Lucas offered.
"Nah," Cynthia said, shaking her head. She got up and almost fell down, "Well…owe."
"Here." Lucas scooped her up as Marshall and Z shared a look. Lucas was not one to talk to pretty girls; help Madison's friends; or known to have the strength to pick anyone up.
Cynthia didn't bother to struggle as Lucas carried her to her dorm. The only reason he knew where it was, was because she shared it with Brandy. He kicked at the door as a makeshift knock.
Brandy opened up, "Uh…what happened?"
"Over-stuffed roommate delivery,"
Brandy moved away so he could put Cynthia on her bed, "Thanks geek, you're nicer than you seem."
Lucas gave a weak smile, before leaving the girls' dorm.
But Cynthia, having the unlucky day she was, had someone spying on her. Someone with the name of Madison who was very unpleased to see a geek touching her friend—with her friend allowing the situation.
End of Chapter 2
See what I mean by quick? It doesn't really run smoothly, but I was too lazy to go back and fill in some more details. Hopefully I'll like chapter 3 better--which I'm going to start writing now by the way. I still have a week before winter break is over so expect quick reviews.

The Seattle Police Department has begun an internal review of whether its officers should have done more to prevent a 15-year-old from being beaten last month in the Downtown Transit Tunnel.
A surveillance camera captured the Jan. 28 attack as three security guards radioed for help but did not try to stop the assault. The video has made national news.
About an hour beforehand, the victim, Aiesha Baker, was first confronted by her assailants at Westlake Center. Seattle police were called and the officers separated the groups before they became violent. On Friday, during a news conference with her mother and her attorney, Baker said she asked the police officers to escort her to a bus, but they turned her down.
Seattle police Chief John Diaz has ordered a broader review of at least two encounters between the victim and Seattle police officers before the assault inside the tunnel.
"During these two interactions, it is agreed that the officers separated the involved individuals and instructed the fifteen-year-old girl to leave the area," Seattle police said in a statement.
"The question that remains is whether or not enough was done. Was there an opportunity for action that would have changed the outcome?" the Police Department said in a statement."
Here's more from a KOMO/4 report on the girl's news conference:
She said the same officers showed little interest in investigating or helping her after the attack, either.
The girl's mother, Letta, who rushed downtown to help her daughter after the attack, called the whole incident an "outrage."
She said her daughter has a potentially fatal heart condition and could easily have died in the attack. "Then we would be looking at murder charges," she said.
When asked her reaction to the videotape of her daughter's beating, she said, "I just can't explain how I felt" before breaking down in tears.
The girl's attorney is James Bible, also president of the local chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Bible, who intimated that the girl's family is planning to file a lawsuit, said he thinks police and the security officers would have responded differently had she not been black, according to the report.
King County Executive Dow Constantine said Thursday that more armed deputies would be stationed inside the tunnel — one at each stop. Metro Transit, which oversees the transit tunnel, has promised to change a policy that restricts its private security guards from doing anything more than "observing and reporting" when a crime, such as assault, takes place.
According to a Seattle police report, the two sides were yelling at each other and disturbing customers in the shopping center, but the officers had no evidence of a crime to arrest anyone. So, the officers instructed the victim to catch a bus home while they kept watch on the other group to prevent any violence.
Seattle police Sgt. Sean Whitcomb said Thursday the girl did not immediately leave the area, despite officers encouraging her to do so. Whitcomb said the officers were not made aware of any threats to kill, although the two sides appeared like they were going to fight.
After the beating, Baker's purse, iPod, and cell phone were stolen as she was on the ground. She suffered cuts and bruises but escaped serious injury.
The girl accused of beating Baker has pleaded not guilty to first-degree robbery charge in juvenile court. Three others have been charged in adult court.

In The New York Times today, David Carr detailed what makes Rupert Murdoch and Michael Bloomberg tick: Money, power and ego. Never would've guessed that, right?
Murdoch and Bloomberg have been in the news a lot lately. The former because he might have an addiction to Twitter and can't stop talking about how much he hates Mitt Romney. The latter because he's a force at Bloomberg LP and that age old rumor about him buying The New York Times reappeared.
This, explained Carr, is exactly how they like it:
I don't know Mr. Bloomberg or Mr. Murdoch personally, but I have covered them enough to know that they share a few hobbies. They both enjoy gossip, are inveterate news hounds and love to involve themselves in all aspects of the production of the news. They also like to wield broad influence on how that news unfolds.
In short, Murdoch and Bloomberg are like a lot of other obscenely rich dudes — they want to be the center of attention and will spend whatever is necessary to make that happen. Not the worst way to live your life. Not the best either.

I've been eating so many beets lately I may turn a deep shade of red soon. Just like Ms. Boregard in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory – "Violet you're turning violet!" Beets also remind me of Doug on Nickelodeon. Remember that cartoon? His favorite band was called "The Beets" and they sang that song Killer Tofu. Truly a man after my own heart, because I too am quite afraid of tofu but love beets. So let's talk about this salad. It's got tons of amazing things in it – hazelnuts (or nutella nuts as I like to call them), cheese (the best thing in life), beets (see above), fresh basil (from my garden!), and a delicious, tangy, citrus dressing. There are a lot of steps for a salad and it is a bit time-consuming if you are roasting your own beets, but you can always go down to handy-dandy Trader Joe's and get the pre-roasted and peeled ones in the refrigerated section.
For the Vinaigrette:
- 2 TB white wine vinegar
- 1 TB fresh lemon juice
- 1 small shallot, minced
- 1 tsp dijon mustard
- 6 TB hazelnut or grapeseed oil
- Salt and Pepper to taste
For the Salad:
- 2 pounds beets (baby beets are best), washed and tops trimmed
- 2 TB olive oil
- Salt and Pepper
- 16 ounces fresh mozarella (or burrata if you can find it), cut into small chunks
- 4-5 large basil leaves, sliced
- 1/4 cup toasted hazelnuts, chopped
1. Preheat oven to 375°. Toss the beets with the olive oil in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a baking dish, cover tightly with foil, and roast beets until tender (a toothpick should slide through easily), about 40 minutes. Uncover and let stand until cool enough to handle, about 10 minutes. Peel beets (use a paper towel to help rub off the peel), then quarter them.
2. While the beets are cooking, make the vinaigrette by combining the white wine vinegar, lemon juice and shallot in a small bowl, then adding the mustard and slowly whisking in the oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
3. To assemble the salad, toss the beets with 1/4 cup vinaigrette in a medium bowl. Arrange the mozarella on a serving plate and season with salt and pepper. Top the cheese with the beets, and top with the remaining vinaigrette. Garnish with basil and hazelnuts.

In response to SportsNet New York's statement from earlier this afternoon, Dish Network has issued the following response concerning the impasse between the parties over carriage fees (click here for a poll on the topic):
"Regional sports channels like SportsNet NY have become one of the pay-TV industry's fastest-growing expenditures, making our negotiations with content providers increasingly difficult. Our customers are our No. 1 priority, and they look to us to offer the most channel choices and compelling programming, all at the best value.
"That's why we work hard for fair deals. Unfortunately, the contract with SNY expired at midnight, March 31 before we were able to reach fair terms for continued carriage. We assure our customers that we are committed to working toward a fair agreement that reflects the value of the channel."

2010 Nissan Versa - Consumer Review
Build Quality

7 of 7 people found this review helpful
A great compact
By patriot1987 on
Vehicle2010 Nissan Versa 1.8 S 4dr Sedan (1.8L 4cyl 4A)
ReviewSo last week I traded in my Chrysler Sebring convertible, and I am absolutely satisfied with the Versa. I wanted to trade the convertible for a more family oriented car. I wanted a car with good gas mileage, and at 35 highway without being a hybrid this car gets great MPG. I wanted a safer car, and the Versa has great saftey features. It is VERY room on the inside, trunk space is generous. Car has a smooth, quiet ride. For a 4 cylinder sedan it has some pick and go, it also handles the turns well. The A/C and heater are great. The sound System is great. My wife and I are completely satisfied.
Best FeaturesLot of interior room. Car has 6 airbags and has great safety reviews. The sound system is clean and clear, even when you have it up loud. The smooth quiet ride is greatly appreciated after driving a convertible around for 2 years. Auxiliary plug in is always a plus. Great gas mileage (great for when you commute nearly 100 miles to work). A/C and heater are cold/hot almost instantly, no waiting for the engine to warm up.
Worst FeaturesOnly two things that come to mind, I bought the car knowing some amenities weren't part of the package. Such as power locks, windows and cruise control. It is nice to have them, but the car functions great without them. However if there is no power locks, it would be nice to have a key port on the passenger side front door. And it would be nice if there was a trunk release from inside the car. Instead the only way to open the trunk is by the key.

How do I properly wear a seat belt?
A seat belt is a vital safety feature in your vehicle. The seat belt can limit injuries in an accident, and potentially save your life. When wearing a seatbelt, three things are especially important: 1. The seatbelt should be snug, and there should be no slack. 2. The lap belt should run under your abdomen and over your thighs. 3. The shoulder belt should run over your shoulder. It should not run along the side of your arm, or into your neck.

A 13-year-old boy is standing guard this weekend at the cenotaph in Port Coquitlam in memory of two soldiers slain in terrorist attacks this week.
Jackson Reid, who only became a cadet a month ago, says it is his way of honouring Cpl. Nathan Cirillo, shot and killed at the cenotaph in Ottawa and Warrant Officer Patrice Vincent, killed in a hit-and-run just outside Montreal, both in targeted attacks.
"I'm basically doing what all soldiers do being respectful and I feel proud when I'm doing it," Reid told CBC News.
Reid has been standing guard for two hours a day since Friday. And he's not alone. All across Canada, veterans and civilians alike are standing in front of cenotaphs.
Jackson's mother, Heidi Roggio-Reid, says she feels incredibly proud
"It was just his pure intention of showing respect and honouring someone who fell in the line of duty," she said.
Jackson says he's planning on finishing out the weekend on Sunday with another two-hour shift.
Reid is just one of many Canadians standing guard at cenotaphs this weekend.
In B.C. veterans and civilians also stood on guard in Nanaimo and in Vancouver's Victory Square where old veterans and young cadets stood side-by-side finishing the shift Nathan Cirrillo was not able to complete.

BURNEY FALLS. McArthur-Burney Falls Memorial State Park is in Northern California between Mount Lassen and Mount Shasta. Here an underground aquifer flows year round through pourous volcanic rock to create this wall of waterfalls. The main falls are up and to the right but this detail shot was more interesting.
The challenge of shooting waterfalls is to use a shutter speed slow enough to capture the flow of water, but fast enough so there is still detail in the highlights of the falls. This photograph was shot with a 4x5 view camera with 210mm lens on color transparency film. I scanned the film and used Adobe Photoshop to adjust the final image.

I don't watch a lot of television, but when I find a series that does strike a chord, I tend to become obsessed and arrange my entire week around it.
For a while, that show was Glee. As I wrote not long ago, even when I began to find the story lines a bit tired, I was still inspired by the singing and dancing.
My TV obsession du jour right now is Downton Abbey. I almost gave up on it after the first few episodes, but now I'm thoroughly addicted.
Here are five reasons I'd recommend that you privilege Downton over Glee:
1. Plot. We've just finished Season Two of Downton over here -- so I won't include any spoilers. But suffice to say that while Glee felt really fresh during its first season -- forcing us all to go back to that awkward, uncomfortable space called High School -- it hasn't really evolved very much, plot-wise. The basic arc every season seems to be one of the Glee Club being threatened with destruction -- whether from inside or outside -- and having to somehow manage to overcome that implosion. And after a while, that just gets boring. Downton, on the other hand, started off in an almost ridiculous fashion. (I don't know about you, but when that guy died having sex, I nearly clicked the "off" button. When, since Private Benjamin, has anyone had to rely on that kind of plot device?) Since then, however, they have figured out ways to make the plot grow outward, rather than inward. Sure, it's a soap opera. But at least there are multiple and constantly moving threads, rather than one central narrative.
2. Character Development. Similarly, and I've harped on this before, the characters in Glee feel like they are becoming more and more one-dimensional, while the characters in Downton are getting more nuanced. It's true that Glee has done a great job in Seasons Two and Three of featuring some of the minor characters like Brittany and Mike and Tina. But I've been particularly disappointed by Sue Sylvester (played by the marvelous Jane Lynch) who -- other than a very moving episode where her Downs Syndrome sister dies -- has become a sort of sinister, freak show maniac over time. As Downton moved into Season Two, in contrast, I felt that all of the main characters -- and particularly the nastier ones -- began to show their humanity, which really went a long way towards making the show feel more realistic.
3. Leading Man. This is, of course, purely a matter of personal preference. But I've always been pretty creeped out by Matthew Morrison (Mr. Shue) and it's not the hair gel. Downton's Hugh Bonneville (The Earl of Grantham) isn't exactly about to win People Magazine's Sexiest Man Alive award. But there's something wonderfully noble and endearing about him that makes you want to sit down for an extended fireside chat. (Or is that just me?)
4. Leading Lady. This is a really tough call because it's comparing apples and oranges. I adore Jane Lynch, (along with just about everyone else on the planet, as far as I can tell.) If she hasn't yet won you over, watch her perform one of former Representative Anthony Weiner's Facebook messages with Bill Maher (NSFW). But Downton has Dame Maggie Smith in the role of the Dowager Countess of Grantham. And as we all know, there is nothing like a dame. (You can see how terribly hard it is for me to renounce the show tune aspect of Glee...)
5. Setting. Sorry, Ohio. I know that you're a pivotal swing state and all. And I've always adored this song about you, which was apparently performed by Jane Lynch and Carol Burnett last season on Glee. But suburban, mid-western America can never hope to hold a candle to the breathtakingly beautiful English countryside. I don't even think that the town of Rippen -- featured in Downton Abbey -- actually exists. But, oh, how I long to go there all the same. Don't you?

Restoration theatre was a revolution in itself, staged anywhere that was available – from disused tennis courts to ancestral family homes. In light of this, forward thinking theatre company Go People are bringing John Vanbrugh's The Provoked Wife to intimate venues across London; and see they have an amazing opportunity to explore a revival of this idea, making new and unusual spaces our playground in the delivery of a brilliantly alternative theatrical experience.

We all know that the adult industry and technology have a pretty cozy relationship today. Between the Internet, digital cameras, and even DVD technology, porn has had a big influence on our entertainment as a whole. But did you know that it can also be credited with the spread of literature, and the success of books as a form of mass-market media?
It's no surprise that porn influenced a lot of the 20th century technology, it was a time of sexual liberation after all. The accessibility of porn on VHS killed the Betamax, and when porn started using Blu-Rays it killed HD DVD's. The military created the Internet but it's porn that drove video streaming, tracking devices and online transactions. Porn's biggest contribution to the Internet? Bandwidth growth! Virtual reality porn is already a billion dollar market today.
But what about earlier technology? What was porn's influence on 15th century's technology?
The Pornographic Printing Press
We've all heard the story of Gutenberg's great invention. He sank a huge amount of time, effort, and personal fortune into the gamble to create the first printing press with movable type, allowing books to be printed en masse for the first time in history. And, of course, Gutenberg's first offering to the masses looking for a reason to become literate was the bible.
It was the second offering, though, that made printing take off into the stratosphere. That book was titled I Modi, which means The Ways, and it was written by Pietro Aretino, and Giulio Romano. The book was a combination of professional wrestling and hardcore pornography, and it had the interior illustrations to put it in high demand.
Aretino, widely considered the father of erotic literature as we know it, is the one who put the boot in to publishing, and who helped elevate the fledgling business of mass-produced books.
Once reading became something that everyone could participate in, and the technology for printing disseminated, we saw the industry begin to take steps as it grew into the giant we know today.
We saw that porn is not creating technology but is often leading the application side of it, making it or killing it.
Will the Adult Industry Drive Home 3D Printing Too?
We saw people buying their first 3D printer and coming right to our website and purchase 3D sex toy designs. There are people interested in the concept sending us emails asking what kind of printer they should get to make sex toys. We strongly believe the adult entertainment industry is already impacting 3D printing technology. To what extent? Only time will tell, we sure have more than one trick in our sleeve.
Check out our series of interviews with designers to see what they have to say about 3D printing taking over the sex toy market.
