text: The reviews for the Pure Wand are overwhelmly positive. It sounds like almost everyone can climax with it. I'm wondering if there are women who don't usually climax with vaginal sex who can climax with the Pure Wand inside them? Or, for women who do climax during vaginal penetration, is it easier with the Pure Wand?

So some things are kinda irritating me.
Lori said "crap" in a comment she posted on my journal. I don't mean to be a hypocrite or anything. I don't really care if other people cuss (at least I try not to ^^;). And I kinda think not-so-nice words every so often … but I don't like certain people to cuss. Namely my relatives. ^^;;; One time N said "bitch" (not to anyone, he just said it) and I was so shocked, but C didn't seem to make much notice of it, so I tried to play it cool. ^.^; *is a dork* But uh anyway I never ever ever use cuss words out loud, unless I'm just saying the word. And I'm gonna stop typing it out online where Lori can see it. Even if I am that pissed off.
I know I'm not supposed to say "bad words" because it might offend other people. I definitely don't want to offend other people. Nor do I want to be offended when other people say them. ^^;; But I don't know. Sometimes words just fit. Sometimes the world is just so negative … I wonder what it's like, telepathy. Something that transcends words …
But I'm also trying to not talk about my beliefs because I know it makes everyone uncomfortable. <_< Like when Lori brings up NDEs and reincarnation at the dinner table and I know where she's been getting it all from (Mum and me). ^^;; And then Auntie and Uncle say things that I want to correct, but I don't, because it's their beliefs and they're not hurting anyone so why should I disrupt them? *shrugs*
I am also not liking Your-site.com. x_x;; I mean, it's reeeeally nice, I like the people who own/run it, but it's a bit more simplified than I was looking for. (I completely forgot to check that I could create more ftp accounts!!! ARRRRGH! >_<) I want a Cyberpixels account (or even iPowerWeb, even though I don't have that much money ^^;;;;), but I can't, because Noelle and Lori use Greymatter and Cyberpixels doesn't allow that script 'cause of security problems. x.x Guh. I don't get any subdomains with y-s.com, I can't make more ftp accounts, I don't have any MySQL databases, and only one domain per plan. *sigh* And with Cyberpixels I could have had a free third domain name. >b Yeah, I'm starting to want crimsoncut.com again.
Ummm … I also want a blog on there. Lately I've been feeling like I'm putting on an act with my blog/public LJ entries. I'm not— it's me, but it feels like an act, because I know Lori and Noelle will be reading it, so I kinda up the happy chipperness a bit. ^^;; And that blog would not be associated with my current sites at all. I'd even use another nickname on there. I'd call myself Marcy. :b So that way there're no ties to my real life. >b Yeay, happy dreams.
Sad thoughts: Amy Lee was mentioned on the egl community because the dress she wore was designed by h.Naoto. WAO! XD So cool! I didn't know that, but I really liked her dress. I thought she designed it, like her other dresses, but she didn't, and this is so cool because it's h.Naoto!!!
I've decided that I like Atelier Boz and h.Naoto both. And when I get a fulltime job and am settled in a home, I shall blow big bucks on $200+ clothing items and pay someone in Japan to buy for me 'cause they don't ship to the US.
But anyway. So on the egl community everyone (but one person) was saying they didn't like Amy Lee. And one person even said Amy doesn't wear her clothes very well. o_O I mean, okay, it's their opinion, nothing to get riled up over. But it still makes me sad. Because I think she's a great person. Human, yeah (thinking of the Cold incident), but she's still a good role model for girls. (IE, she's telling them to not wear skimpy clothing, unlike Christina Aguilera. Is it just me, or did the dress she wear at the Grammys look like she was spreading her legs on her chest? o_O [Yes I'm weird I know that. >.>;;])
And then they were all worrying that her wearing h.Naoto would make EGL or punk loli a fad in America, and that they'd all be called "Amy Lee wannabes" when they were all wearing it first. But she designs her own clothes (even though they go under the goth or punk label most of the time), and she's not following someone else's trends.
Okay now I'm just rambling and not making sense to myself.
Ooh, I made a mini movie icon for Livejournal. :D It's not very good and it's a bit short and choppy and headache-inducing. But lj has insane limits. Har har. I want to make a mini movie of the scene where she's looking at the kites (the part that's right there) and then the part where she's on the ground next to the tower 'cause she jumped off it. *blink* Am I being morbid? I dunno. They didn't have that scene in the music video. So now I'm stuck with the old DVD player that freezes after ten seconds of this region 0 disc or the new DVD player which doesn't take screenshots. >.<
So I was looking at the Lily Chou-Chou fansite 'cause I couldn't remember why I didn't download the movie clips (they're in .mov format, and I don't like Quicktime on my laptop), and now I feel like watching the movie again. ^^;;; Freaky schoolgirls who tell guy classmates to "scare" another girl classmate because they're jealous of her piano skillz, then when the guys rape her, they say "Idiots! Oh well."
And moving from that disturbing scene, I also want to see Dumbo again. ^^;; What? Last year I read that it's supposed to be a "perfect imitation of a Disney film" because Walt had nothing to do with it and yet they were able to rehash everything he's ever done in a movie. :b And someone else said the pink elephants scene was utterly pointless dribble, but I never thought so. It scared me as a kid, but I also thought it was really entertaining. ^^ I also have to see the Emperor's New Groove. Is that what it's called? I was reading this Disney book in the college library on Disney storyboards, and they were talking about this movie called "Kingdom of the Sun" about an emperor who was turned into a llama. Yeah. I also want that book. Preeeetty paintings! ;.; Mum has this book on Pinocchio and the art in it. There's an amazing painting of that bar of soap. :P
And now I'm bored with typing so baibai. (5:53, wow)

The pediatricians want your guns
I have known for over 40 years that pediatricians are, for the most part, leftist lovers of the State, both local and federal. Their income, to a considerable degree, depends on cooperation with state and federal agencies. They are involved in welfare programs from medical school onward. Statism is in their blood.
Now the American Association of Pediatrics (AAP), also known as "Ape," has gone completely ape on state power. They have revealed themselves the left wing subversive twits I have always said they are. They poke around in the private lives of the families they treat like neurotic old grannies, clucking around looking for dirty underwear and apple cores under the bed. I once had a know-it-all pediatrician admit to me that when he made a house call-and he loved to make house calls-he would immediately ask to use the bathroom "to check it for cleanliness."
That was 40 years ago. The present generation of these prying pecksniffs is checking for guns. They assume it's a government-mandated duty for them to smell for guns in the house, like a dog sniffing luggage at the airport. Their modus operandi, when alone with a child, is to ask them: "Is there a gun in the house? Do your friends next door have a gun? What kind of movies do you watch at home? Is your father a hunter?" Does that sound like a sneaky Bolshevik spy to you? It does to me.
The California state legislature has gone so far as to pass a bill that will mandate pediatricians to ask probing questions regarding gun ownership and exposure to violence. It will be mind control as predicted in the book, 1984.
Rusty Selix, executive director of the Mental Health Association in California-an organization in support of the bill-told WorldNetDaily that the bill was never intended to assess risk factors for violence. "That's not what we were doing," Selix said. "But we can see how someone would take it that way." (Thanks, Rusty you're a great help.)
However you take it, violence risk factors are a primary and recurring subject with the AAP. Their publication, "The Role of the Pediatrician in Youth Violence Prevention in Clinical Practice" outlines specific measures to be taken by pediatricians in violence prevention, including advocacy of gun-control proposals. According to the academy, the publication "establishes an agenda for making this a routine part of pediatric practice."
That's the bottom line for these sneaky snoopers-and don't forget it. Doctors, especially pediatricians, are the front line shock troops in the confiscation of all guns from American homes.
It's ironic, really, when you consider that more people are accidentally killed by doctors than are accidentally killed by guns. In fact, doctors are approximately 9,000 times more dangerous than gun owners are. We need a new bumper sticker:
Dr. Jack Swanson, a member of the Pediatric Practice Action Group, said: "Pediatrics is all about supervising health care and providing anticipatory guidance to help children grow and mature physically, socially and safely." I thought that was the job of the parents, but I guess I was wrong.
Writing this article brought me to further revelations about the true scope of the gun-confiscation problem. I found that the pediatricians are only the cutting edge of an all-out attack by medical organizations across the board.
Most doctors know nothing about guns and so are unqualified to enter this arena. They are no more qualified than a carpenter attempting to perform orthopedic surgery. The physicians and medical organizations howling for gun restriction have a political agenda. Unfortunately, the truth of the matter is that those doctors who are knowledgeable in the handling of firearms, and appreciate their importance to public health as well as safety for the family, do not have a voice in the American Medical Association, the National Medical Association, the American Academy of Family Practice, the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American College of Physicians, the Center for Disease Control, or the Physicians for Social Responsibility (PSR). All of these powerful organizations have explicit anti-gun agendas and are arrayed against your right to defend your family in your own home.
Neil Brooks, MD, president of the American Academy of Family Practice, noted that "in a nation with 38 million children between ages 10 and 17 years, the shootings at a handful of schools, from an epidemiologic standpoint, are exceedingly rare events. But [the shootings] caught the public's attention and may help us get to other kids who will act out in other ways," he said. "It may also help people better understand the trauma kids are going through and may help us avoid these problems."
At least he got part of it right: "Shootings at a handful of schools, from an epidemiologic standpoint, are exceedingly rare events." However, doctors, being human, react irrationally and inappropriately. With the phalanx of money and power behind them, they will probably prevail.
The medical campaign against home security-and that is precisely what it amounts to-is being conducted with the efficiency of a German Panzer division. It is awesome in its scope and terrifying in its implications: it will bring about the complete unshackling of the beast of uncontrollable government-welcome to the United Soviet States of Amerika-the USSA, compliments of America's caring medical community.
Action to take:
(1) Don't use a pediatrician. Take your children to a common sense, gun-toting GP. If he needs a pediatrician, which won't be often, he'll call one.
(2) If you insist on using one of these pediatric mouthpieces of the federal government, tell him to keep his politics to himself or you will sue him for intellectual child abuse.
The best way to fight these medical commissars is to get them out of your children's lives and keep their prying eyes out of your home. They are more dangerous to your family than hepatitis or germ warfare. RH

Our royalty policy varies depending on how the book is sold, and it can be complicated to explain, so ideally this is a conversation we have in real life, but since authors are (rightly) interested in the details of royalties, here is a rough description:
* If you buy the book directly from Piscataqua Press and sell it independently, you keep all the profit.
Example: If the retail price of the book is $15, and you spent $7 to have the book made by Piscataqua Press, then you profit the full $8 from the sale.
* If the book sells in RiverRun Bookstore, you make 70% of the bookstore profit.
Example: If the retail price of the book is $15, and it cost RiverRun $7 to have the book made by Piscataqua Press, then you profit $8 times .70 or $5.60.
* If the book sells online, you receive 70% of the net profit, we receive the other 30%. The net profit is the retail price of the book less printer, shipping, and vendor fees (Amazon, the distributor, etc.). Six months after the publication of the book, you will receive your first royalty. This will continue quarterly from that point on.
Example: A $15 paperback novel that is 250-300 pages would typically end with a $3 payment to the author. ($15 retail less 20% to distributor=$12 less $7.50 to the printer= $4.50 less 30% to Piscataqua Press= $3.15) This is just an estimate.
*Ebooks work the same way as selling a book online, but without the printing or shipping costs. We take the net profit sent to us quarterly by the sales outlet (kindle/nook) and split it with you 70/30

TOX® PRESSOTECHNIK has already been represented in the Czech Republic and Mexico, but under the leadership of the German headquarter and the subsidiary in the USA.
With the launch of the new wholly-owned subsidiaries in Mexico on 1 January 2018 and the Czech Republic on 1 July 2018, TOX® PRESSOTECHNIK's Worldwide Sales and Service Network is now further expanded. This means that the specialist for drive, press and connection technology is now present in 20 countries with its own competence centres and subsidiaries and with representations in more than 20 countries.
Founded in 1978, the group now employs more than 1,300 people. With three complementary divisions, the company is successful in the metal processing industry worldwide. The Components division comprises pneumohydraulic and electromechanical drives, controls and software. The press range and manual, machine and robot tongs form the Systems division. In addition to clinching, riveting and fastener insertion technologies, assembly and testing methods are also offered.
Martin Knörle, as one of three managing directors responsible for Finance, Administration and Human Resources, on the philosophy of internationalization: "Right from the start we have relied on a decentralized sales and service structure. In principle, only local personnel are employed in all local companies, including management. Depending on the market situation, we initially start with Sales & Service for the local market and successively supplement this offering with engineering and production services. As a result, independent engineering and mechanical engineering companies develop, which in turn fall back on the production services of our main plant in Weingarten and on the components and machines produced in the Taicang (China) plant".
The Czech subsidiary, which also serves the Slovak market, will also act as an "extended workbench" for the German plant to secure the necessary production capacities in the coming years.
Currently, 15 employees are already working at the new location in Saltillo in northern Mexico and 15 at the location in Brno in the Czech Republic. With decentralization, TOX® PRESSOTECHNIK guarantees practical market proximity and thus customer focus. And decentralized production ensures prompt delivery and supply on site.

Happy December everyone! I can't believe it's the most wonderful time of the year, already! Yeesh, September, October and November flew by in what seems like a matter of minutes. It looks like I missed my blog's three month anniversary, too. Whoops. What's the customary three month gift- socks? Oh well. I'll save up for something good on our six month, that's the big one. I'm officially giving in to everything Christmas, and have been listening to "Christmas Wrapping" by The Waitresses non-stop. It's my favorite holiday song of all time! (Tied for second fave are "Dominick The Donkey" by Lou Monte and "The Christmas Song" by Alvin and the Chipmuks. Obvi.) I've also been drinking hot cocoa like chocolate addict- this morning I actually mixed it with my coffee. I like it so much better than my usual creamer and sugar. For some reason, I envision Christmas Elves living off of this shit. Yes, I'm a grown ass woman (girl) who still spends a fair amount of time wishing she could visit the North Pole. What? It looks magical! Have you seen Elf?! Come on, now.
All of this Christmas spirit has me in the mood to do some Christmas decorating, baking and serious shopping. I'm trying to resist the urge to go totally Christmas crazy, so instead I've put together a few of my favorite Holiday posts from around the blog and etsy world. So much fun!
Emma at Food Coma has me salivating over these Chocolate Peppermint Cake Pops. How yummy do they look? They're chocolate on the inside and white cocolate on the outside, sprinkled with candy canes. Hello, Christmas crack! These are definitely being added to my list of Holiday treats to make before December 25th.
Kaylah at The Dainty Squid posted tons of pretty Christmas decorations that made me wish I had an unlimited budget with which to decorate this year. Reindeer lights are an invention I've never seen before, but somehow can't imagine my life without. That's Christmas in one single little strand, right there. I need to own these. It's what Santa would want.
Katie's Pencil Box posted this adorable Christmas Lyrics Glitter Banner DIY! I can't say I have any faith in myself when it comes to getting this one done. You never know, though. It looks simple enough. But I wouldn't hold your breath. Still- how freaking cute?! And I love the lyrics. When you add in glitter to the mix, it almost gets too awesome. I love it.
The Veda House posted a few pictures from the Mimenga paper shop, and I'm totally swooning. Their creative products would put a smile on anyone's face this Christmas. They would make amazing stocking stuffers, too! I just love the crisp design so much. I want to decorate my life with it.
Rich Neely Designs on Etsy is my newest addition to my Christmas wishlist. He designs iPod docking stations made from gorgeous one of a kind vintage books, and new books. His shop is sold out for Christmas, but I wouldn't mind a belated Christmas gift if this was it. *Hint hint!*
Bonnie at Flashes of Style posted some pretty pictures of Austin, TX that have me in love. This gorgeous shot of the record store made me miss collecting vinyl. I haven't purchased any since my return to the Midwest becuase I'm trying to save money. But there are so many records I need to own. Guess what's getting added to the Christmas list? Lots and lots of vinyl!
SRSLY LIZ posted this adorable grraphic, along with the song "Hell on Heels" by the Pisol Annies earlier this week, and I have been listening to them ever since. (In between my holiday music, obviously.) Even though it's not technically Christmas related, I couldn't help but post about this. Seriuosly, I have listened to their album at least 10 times through since Tuesday. It's embarrassing. I CAN'T STOP! They're twangy, girl country with a ton of attitude. Anyone who sings a song about a "trailer for sale" is alright in my book. If you have any interest in country music, or good music in general- check them out!

Wordful Wednesday - Creative Talking
Notice the dog staring at me like I'm some sort of freak!
The other day I was trying to play the good wife and bake some cookies. There I was, minding my own business, using my hands to form cookie balls. No sooner than I got my hands full of dough, I received a phone call from my daughter.
Rather than miss the call by taking time to wash my hands, I took the short route and laid my head on the phone while it was set atop the washer. It was hands-free talkin', baby! And pretty ingenious, if I do say so myself.
My hubby thought it was an opportune time to take a pic of me at an inopportune moment. Whatevs! I got my talkin' done and was able to carry on with the cookies afterwards.

Flytec V001 Cool Looking Inexpensive Scale RTR Boat
Posted by
| Oct 11, 2019 @ 03:46 PM | 2,738 Views
I was looking for an RC boat with a scale appearance that was both inexpensive, relatively slow, and easy to drive for the youngens when they come over to visit. The
Flytec V001 RTR
caught my eye, and so far it seems like it's just about perfect for what I wanted it for. It looks fantastic, and should look very realistic when running once I find a suitable driver figure. It could stand to be a little bit faster, but it'll probably be just right for inexperienced visitors, and my grandson as soon as he's old enough to start playing with RC models.
The boat does not have a servo for steering, instead it uses differential thrust to make left and right turns. When you steer one motor slows down, and the other motor speeds up to move the boat in your chosen direction. Because of this there is some speed lost when making turns, but it makes it very easy for kids to control the boat. All in all I'm pretty impressed with the boat, especially considering its cost of less than $40 shipped.
Here are a few pics of the boat. I will get some running video posted shortly. Feel free to ask any questions you might have, and happy sailing!

Eachine Tyro109 DIY 5 Inch Kit Build
Posted by
| Aug 25, 2019 @ 09:35 AM | 2,980 Views
Let the new build begin. I hear the Eachine Tyro machines are a pretty good value in a 5 inch kit, so figured I'd build one and see for myself.
They spec out fairly nicely, and at the
current price of $109 in the USA warehouse if it performs half decent it'll be hard to beat for a budget 5 inch quad.
Package Includes:
1 x 210mm frame kit
2 x 2206 2400KV brushless motor CW
2 x 2206 2400KV brushless motor CCW
1 x 4 IN 1 30A BLHeli_S ESC
1 x Customized F4 flight controller
1 x Caddx Turbo Eos2 1200tvl
1 x XF5804 5.8G 40CH 0mw/25mw/200mw/600mw switchable VTX
2 x Battery strap
1x Antenna
2x 5040 four-blade propeller CW
2 x 5040 four-blade propeller CCW
Will post updates as the build progresses.
Made some progress today. Frame went together perfectly.
Build is complete. Flight video coming soon.
I wasn't a big fan of the flight characteristics of the Tyro109 frame. It is just a little too "floaty" for my liking, and flying style. Decided to move all of the components over to a GEPRC GEP-VX5 frame. Hoping to get in a maiden this afternoon. Flight video coming as soon as weather permits.

TransTec Tiny Attack 66 66mm 1s Brushless Micro Tiny Whoop FPV Racer Review
Posted by
| Apr 14, 2019 @ 06:47 PM | 17,901 Views
My new
TransTec Tiny Attack 66
66mm 1S brushless Tiny Whoop has arrived! I am very excited about this little guy. I am hoping it will be an excellent micro for indoor, and outdoor use in confined areas.
Hoping to get in a few flights with it this afternoon. Here are a few pics. More pics, info, and flight video coming ASAP. It's worth noting that regardless of which color version you purchase, you will receive all 3 canopies, and all 3 different colors of prop guards, so don't pay more for a specific color. The package also includes a lead with connector for the receiver, so aside from soldering the lead to the contacts on your RX, there really is no soldering required to get the quad up and flying.
Quick outdoor video using a GNB 450mah battery. This thing is a riot! More video and info coming soon

JJRC Q65 RTR 1/10 Scale Willys MB Military Jeep Review
Posted by
| Feb 10, 2019 @ 12:47 PM | 28,358 Views
Scale realism? Digital proportional throttle, and steering? 4WD and Ready To Run? All for under $50? YEP!
All of the above!
The new JJRC Q65 Jedi is one sweet looking 1/10 scale military Jeep, and it is now available
for only $38.99 with free priority shipping.
This little Jeep doesn't just look good, but it performs well too. As mentioned above you get full proportional control, which as we all know makes the driving experience worlds better than on/off throttle, and lock to lock steering. The package includes everything you need to be up and running except for 2 AA batteries for the transmitter.
Check out the pics, and stay tuned for more info, and some running video in the snow. Don't hesitate to ask any questions you might have.
Happy RC'ing!!
Quick run out on the snow and ice. So nice to have proportional controls with these inexpensive rigs.

JJRC JJPRO X7 Brushless GPS 1080P RTF Review
Posted by
| Dec 01, 2018 @ 05:04 PM | 45,374 Views
JJRC JJPRO X7 Brushless GPS Drone Review
The new JJRC JJPRO X7 Brushless GPS Ready To Fly (RTF) RC Drone with 1080P HD camera and transmitter controlled gimbal has finally arrived
I will start by saying that the quality of this model far exceeds my expectations. It has a look and feel to it that I wasn't expecting at this price point. The maiden flight went very well. All controls function exactly as they should. The drone is incredibly stable, and smooth. GPS hold is accurate and works perfectly, as does the GPS return to home function. You don't have to worry about losing this one, because with the press of a button, it will come right back to you and land itself as demonstrated in the video below.
One thing to take note of. If you want to fly this via the WiFi FPV with your smart phone or tablet, or view the live feed from the on board camera, you will need a 5G compatible device. Unfortunately my phone is not 5G capable, so I am only able to fly this LOS (line of sight) I am sure that in the very near future most phones will support 5G, and many of you probably already have phones that do.
Please be aware though that if your phone does not support 5G WiFi, there are a host of features that you won't be able to enable, or use. However, for those of you that just want a good flying brushless drone with GPS, and long flight times, this is certainly a model worthy of your consideration as it is a very good flying drone, with excellent range.
This awesome new

Tianqu Visuo XS812 RTF GPS Drone Review
Posted by
| Nov 03, 2018 @ 09:32 AM | 47,188 Views
The new Tianqu Visuo XS812 GPS drone with HD camera has arrived!
EDIT-11/21/2018 This excellent quadcopter is available
for $78.99 during the early Black Friday sales going on now
This is an excellent value in ready to fly drones with GPS position hold, and return to home. The package includes everything you need to start flying your new quadcopter, and capture HD pictures, and video. Not only is the camera WiFi enabled, so you can use your phone, or tablet to see what the drone sees in real time, but the camera module also has a micro SD card slot allowing you to record your flights in higher quality than if you're just saving to your mobile device.
The GPS function is incredibly accurate, and does a great job of maintaining height, and position while shooting pics, or vid. You also get GPS return to home, so with the quick press of a button the drone will return and land itself within inches of where you took off from. A great feature which helps keep the pilot from losing the drone in the event that you lose orientation, or if you just want to bring it back without having to pilot it yourself.
Just like the other Tianqu Visuo quadcopters that came before it, the XS812 is a folding design making it very easy to travel with and store. When unfolded you still have a decent sized 250mm drone that is easy to fly, and large enough to still see at a distance. The XS812 is an excellent model for beginners just looking to get into the hobby, or for those that are

Eachine E015 3 in 1 Tiny Whoop RC Drone, Boat & Hovercraft/Tiny Whoover Review
Posted by
| Oct 31, 2018 @ 04:12 PM | 45,688 Views
At last my
Eachine E015
3 in 1 has arrived! I have been anxiously awaiting this product. I expect it to be a lot of fun since it can be used in multiple configurations, and on a wide variety of surfaces. Rather than just another Tiny Whoop drone, in this box you get the parts necessary to turn your drone into a boat, or a hovercraft/Tiny Whoov.
I received the yellow version with two batteries, but this package is also available in red and with one, two, or three batteries. The price only varies a little bit with the extra batteries so I highly recommend getting the package with at least two batteries.
If you already have a bunch of Eachine E010, E011, FuriBee F36, JJRC H36 etc batteries, then you're in luck because they will all work with this E015. The E015 batteries are 220mah 35c so they are slightly higher capacity than the E010, H36, F36 original batteries.
In the box you also get a manual, a couple spare props, one CW and one CCW, along with a USB charger, screwdriver, and prop removal tool. All in all this is quite an interesting multi purpose RC vehicle available
for under $30
Check out the pics and stay tuned for running video demonstrations in each configuration. I have batteries charging now so I'll start getting some video ASAP.
As always please don't hesitate to ask any questions you might have. Happy RC'ing!!
Running video demonstrating all 3 modes. Really having a lot of fun with this little thing

HTRC H4AC Duo Compact Dual Channel LiPo Balance Charger
Posted by
| Oct 16, 2018 @ 04:49 PM | 46,506 Views
HTRC H4AC Duo
2s-4s Dual Output LiPo Balance Charger Review
Are you looking for an affordable, compact, and easy to use LiPo balance charger, capable of charging two batteries at once? If so then this little H4AC might be just what you want.
This charger is about as easy to use as they come. Simply plug a battery into channel 1, or channel 2, or both, plug your balance connector into the appropriate port, and hit the start button. The charger will then begin charging your battery, or batteries, and the display will show the voltage of each individual cell being charged. It's as simple as that.
Each channel has a fixed output of 2A, so the charger is best suited for 1100-2400mah 2s-4s batteries. I have used it several times now on my Tattu 75c 1050mah 4s batteries, and it has been working flawlessly. Cells have been consistently finishing within .01v of each other on the chargers display, as well as when I use my cell checker/balancer which has always been accurate for me.
The fact that this little guy has a built in power supply makes it perfect for those that don't already own a 12v DC power supply. It is also quite small, so it takes up very little desktop, or bench space, and is super easy to travel with. You can see in the picture below just how small it is next to one of my 65mm Tiny Whoop Drones. Priced under $30 and Amazon Prime eligible, this is an excellent option for anyone on a tight budget, or as a backup/travel charger.
Don't hesitate to ask any

Skystars S225/STX225 5s 5 Inch FPV Racer Kit Build/Review
Posted by
| Oct 01, 2018 @ 01:21 PM | 56,368 Views
EDIT 12/11/2019 Now back in stock, and available
for $119.99 during the Christmas sales at Banggood.
Flight Controller PDF Manual/Pin Out Diagram
Thanks to member GCRC
The new Skystars S225/STX225 DIY Kit is now available. Looks to me like it is going to be an excellent value in the 5 inch FPV racer category. Specs look really good, and I am liking that we are seeing more and more of these quads available in kit form.
My kit arrived a couple days ago, and I finally got a chance to snap a few pics. Hoping to get started on the build this afternoon, and will post more pics as I make progress.
Build is complete. Added a bunch more pics below. Please don't hesitate to ask any questions, or request pics of something I missed. Flight video coming soon. Also added some large zoomable images of the F405 AIO Flight Controller (FC) pinout to aid in wiring for anyone else doing this build. Some of the print on my board was pretty faint and the pics helped me locate the necessary solder pads.
Managed a quick test flight today. Flies very smooth, and has a lot more punch, and speed than I was expecting, especially on 5042 high efficiency props. Should be really impressive on some 5152 props.
EDIT-11-13-2018 Spares are now showing up at Gearbest
Frames are available
for $21.44
Motors are available
for $8.24 each
ESC's are available
for $6.99
I will update if/when more show up.

My Journey With A Creality Ender 3 3D Printer
Posted by
| Aug 31, 2018 @ 04:05 PM | 48,255 Views
EDIT-12/04/2019 Banggood USA warehouse
Ender 3 Pro
$188 with free shipping.
Banggood USA warehouse
Ender 3 Standard
$162 with free shipping.
All orders over $99 are currently shipping free from the BG USA warehouse, so ignore any shown shipping charges on the product page. They will disappear once in your cart.
After using the Creality Ender 2 3D printer for nearly a year, and being very happy with the overall performance, and quality of the printer, it was time for an upgrade.
See my time with the excellent Ender 2
I wanted a new printer that would be of at least equal, if not greater quality than my Ender 2, and something that had a larger build area, but still had a heated build plate, yet remained affordable. Enter the Ender 3. The Ender 3 is one of the new printers for 2018 from Creality3D. This printer has a 220mm x 220mm x 250mm print area, a heated build plate, the popular MK10 extruder, and arrives with most of the assembly completed for you. I had mine from the box, to ready to print, in just over an hour.
I just built my Ender 3 yesterday, and have only done a few prints on it so far, but I am very happy to say that it has exceeded my expectations. I am amazed that such a nice printer can be had for under $200
This will be more of a log than a review, as I will share my prints, and experiences with the printer over the course of the next few months. My Ender 2 proved to be a very reliable machine. I did hundreds of prints, and for nearly

Eachine EX2H Brushless RTF Drone & 1080p Camera Review
Posted by
| Aug 29, 2018 @ 11:40 AM | 47,861 Views
Eachine has been bringing some excellent RC models to the market over the past few years. Some of their drones have been really big hits with beginners, and expert pilots alike. Today we are going to be taking a look at one of their new offerings the EX2H.
The EX2H is a complete ready to fly package that includes the brushless drone with 1806 1800kv motors, 2.4ghz radio transmitter with weak signal, and low battery telemtery, 7.4v 2s 1800mah LiPo battery, charger, and a 1080p HD camera for taking aerial videos, and pictures. You also get a set of prop guards, a set of spare props, and an 8gb micro SD card for the camera. The only thing you will need to get up and flying are 4 AA batteries for the radio.
Many of you will recognize the style, and design of this quadcopter, as it is very similar to the MJX Bugs series of multi rotors. It may even be a rebrand of an MJX model. Regardless, it is a very nice drone, that has a high quality look, and feel to it.
The EX2H is a very stable flyer that performs well in altitude hold mode, or in pro mode (no altitude hold). There is a switch on the transmitter that makes it very easy to select which mode you want to fly in. There is also two different speed rates, that can be used by pressing a button on the transmitter. In high speed mode the quad is quite sporty and capable of some pretty fast speeds, and makes it capable of flying in some pretty windy conditions.
Whether you are a beginner pilot, a pilot looking to take

Lula Toys 8807HD-G RTF Mini Review. Awesome $24 Beginners Camera Drone with WiFi FPV.
The 8807HD-G is a folding drone with a style, and appearance heavily inspired by the DJI Mavic. This great flying package offers WiFi FPV, Voice Control, and G-Sensor Mode.

When unfolded you still have a decent 250mm size drone that is incredibly stable, and very easy to learn how to fly with. Thanks to its 3 different speed modes it is also a drone that you can grow with as your piloting skills improve.
Check out the pics and stay tuned for flight video, and footage from the on board camera coming soon.

FuriBee Apis Florea 66mm Brushless FPV Racer
Posted by
| Jul 05, 2018 @ 03:51 PM | 48,565 Views
FuriBee Apis Florea 66 66mm Brushless Micro FPV Racing Drone Review.
My Apis Florea kit has arrived. I have been anxiously awaiting this little quad since I first noticed it on Gearbest. I was shocked that a kit with these specs could be available for only $54.99
Click me
to order.
Here is a quick run down of the specs
Model: apis florea
Brushless motor: 1104 7000KV
Brushless ESC: 4-in-1 BLHeli - S 6A (2S LiPo)
ESC support: DShot150 / DShot300 / DShot600
Camera: 800TVL FPV camera CMOS sensor
Video transmitter: 5.8GHz 40CH 25mW
Flight controller: OMNIBUS 1 - 2S F3, with OSD, STM32F303CCT6, MPU6000
Firmware of flight controller: BetaFlight 3.1.7
I have edited the above specs because there were some errors in the specs listed in the product description. The two biggest differences are that this kit includes 7000kv motors, and not 6000kv like the description states. The second difference is that the ESC is only 2s capable, and will not run on a 1s battery. Other than those two things, everything else seems to be as described.
Check out the pics of what is included in the kit, and stay tuned for build pics, and flight video.
Don't hesitate to ask any questions you might have.
Happy Flying!!

JJRC S1 Pentium Mini Self Righting RC Boat Review
Posted by
| Jun 17, 2018 @ 09:23 AM | 47,652 Views
The new S1 Pentium from JJRC is one of the mini self righting boats in their S series which includes three very affordable 14 inch boats of different styles. The S1 is currently available for only $36.99
Click me
to order.
The Pentium with its red, and white color scheme, immediately jumped out at me as a great looking little boat for running in pools, ponds, and other small bodies of water.
These little water cooled boats are powered by a 370 motor, and a 7.4v 600mah LiIo battery. They have fully digital proportional throttle, and steering, and the steering duties are handled by a micro 3 wire servo. As the title suggests these boats are also self righting, so there is no need to rescue a capsized vessel. Simply apply a quick blip of forward to reverse throttle, and the boat will roll itself upright, ready for more action.
All three models, S1, S2, and S3 are complete ready to run packages, that include everything needed to run your boat, except for 4 AA batteries for the radio transmitter. For safety, these boats also feature a low battery warning beep, and a weak signal warning beep that sends the warning back to the radio so that you know when you're getting out of range, or the battery is getting low.
Check out the pictures, and videos. Please don't hesitate to ask any questions. Stay tuned for running video coming soon.
Happy Boating!!

Helifar H106 RTR Self Righting Boat Review
Posted by
| Jun 08, 2018 @ 02:28 PM | 47,863 Views
Helifar H106
is a new ready to run, self righting 14 inch boat from a company best known for their FPV Racing Drones. The RTR package includes the boat, radio transmitter, two 7.4v 600mah batteries, and a USB charger.
Click me
to order.
For a limited time use coupon code RCDeal57 at checkout and get this package for $50.99
My H106 just arrived. First impressions are good. The little boat has a nice feel to it, and I really like the sleek appearance. The instruction manual is quite detailed, and covers everything needed to run, and maintain the boat. The package includes two batteries, as stated in the product description, and they also include a spare prop.
According to the manual there is also some telemetry functions. The boat is supposed to send battery voltage, and radio signal strength information back to the radio. I will check these features out as soon as I get it in the water. Here are some pics. More info and running video coming shortly.
First run. Range is surprisingly good.

Helifar X140 Pro 3 Inch FPV Racing Drone Mini Review.
Posted by
| May 22, 2018 @ 04:29 PM | 52,774 Views
EDIT-5/26/2018 Frsky BNF is now on sale for $149
The new
X140 Pro
arrived on my door step today. I've been very excited about getting this one since I really like the original FuriBee X140, which this is supposed to be an improvement on. For those that haven't heard yet, it appears as though FuriBee will be changing their brand name to Helifar.
Anyway, this little racer is built on a 145mm stretched X frame with 4mm arms. The quad is equipped with an F4 flight controller, a Blheli-32 25A 4 in 1 2-4s ESC running Dshot 1200, a 25/100/200mw VTX with Pit Mode, a 600TVL CCD FPV camera, and 1408 3800kv motors. The product desciption on the Gearbest page states 3600kv motors, but mine are clearly marked 3800kv (See pics)
You also get a buzzer, a programmable LED, and 8 Racekraft 3041 4 blade props.
Many of you may have already seen
Andy RC's review on YouTube
, and he didn't like the stock props. He switched them out for some Gemfan Flash 3052 props and the quad performed much better. I will also be trying it with both. The Gemfan 3052 have been my favorite 3 inch prop since their release.
This little racer is available as an
Frsky BNF
, a
Flysky BNF
, or as a
PNP model
ready for your choice of receiver.
Check out the pictures, and flight videos, and stay tuned for more info coming soon.
First flight, completely stock on stock props.

TomTom has released the Spark as the successor of the MultiSport and Run watches. The new Spark model (also called Runner 2) also comes with an optional features like a built in HR monitor and a Music player using a bluetooth headset.
The SUunto Ambit 3 is a complete multisports watch. In this review I tap into the basic features.
Looking for buying inspiration for yourself or somebody else? Have a look at these gift ideas for swimmers, runners, cyclists and triathletes.
So Wahoo Fitness released the Tickr series with the Tickr, the Tickr Run, and the Tickr X. All of these chest strap heart rate monitors have dual functionality, in means that they support both ANT+ and Bluetooth.
The TomTom MultiSport Cardio has a nifty feature that it measures your heart rate on your wrist. It uses green LED lights and a sensor to measure the blood flow and by that determine your heart rate.
First off, the Ambit 3 is available in Peak and Sport edition, I'll use the Sport edition for this comparison as I feel it's the better option for a triathlete. The Peak is the better watch, but if you swim, bike and run (or any of those by itself), the Sport edition is all you need.

text: At a performance in Cologne last week, British singer Patrick Wolf showed just how mad he gets when roadies disrespec' him by trying to pull the plug on his overrunning set. Cue a barrage of smack-talking (not easy to carry off when you're wearing a Union Jack jumpsuit) and the slightly half-hearted hurling of some of the less expensive pieces of kit - mic stands, piano stools - most of which seemed to travel only as far as his own violinist. The artful way in which she dodges them suggests that she may have had a bit of practice. Watch and learn, Sir Elton, watch and learn.

It's Personal
When it comes to transportation, it's personal. Whether we realize it or not, transportation affects the lives of each of us. It's much more than driving or using public transit. It's about your child's soccer shoes ordered online with the expectation of delivery, or the groceries you need to grab on the way home. It's the connections that keep businesses up and running. Transportation not only moves us, it makes the movement of goods and services possible.
It's our connection to work, safety and economic growth.
MoDOT Director Kevin Keith presented the personal side of transportation today at the 2011 Missouri Conference on Transportation. Missouri organizations like the Farm Bureau, State Highway Patrol, Transportation Alliance and the Chamber of Commerce and Industry gathered to discuss meeting the demands of a diverse population, ensuring economic growth and global competitiveness.
Keith pointed out that it really comes down to two choices. Door number one opens to the choice of doing nothing - Missourians lose the transportation gains we've made, such as smooth roads and fewer fatalities than seen in the last 50 years. We watch roads and bridges get worse, and find ourselves with the inability to attract and retain vital businesses.
Or, there's door number two. That door opens to finding a way to invest in infrastructure -- building better roads, and providing literal and figurative bridges to improve our economy.
It's a challenge in today's political and economical environment, but a plan of action is needed.
Which door will you choose?

Selena Gomez at Teen Choice Awards 2012
Teen Choice Awards: Selena Gomez
Birthday girl Selena Gomez is pretty in pink on tonight's red carpet. The actress chose a hot-pink fit-and-flare Dsquared2 dress and a pair of nude Herve Leger sky-high, ankle-strap stilettos to finish her look. We love that Selena balanced the high-wattage hue and sexy footwear with long, simply straight hair, natural makeup, and minimal jewelry. Clearly, Selena's celebrating in style tonight, no?

By: Tuesday and Friday
Senior Molly Dee and junior Caroline Hoffer combined for 31 points to help lead the Lady Cardinals to the state title at the Penmen Fieldhouse. Senior Meghan Cramb punctuated an excellent career by scoring 12 points in the title game.
For Sue Thomas' Bedford squad the most important task to do in the first half of this game would be to take care of the ball and limit turnovers. The last time these 2 teams played at Bedford the Lady Bulldogs committed too many turnovers and were blown out by BG.
"We had 15 days off from our last regular season game to our first playoff game and it actually helped us" Thomas said. "We had a couple of players who got healthy during that time and we had some really good competitive practices that helped prep us for the playoffs. It definitely helped us to put in a good team performance in the title game."
Even though Bedford was down by 10 at half 32 to 22 they had some life and it didn't seem this would be like a rollover game like the last time these 2 teams played. With just over 2 minutes left in the 3rd quarter a layup by BG freshman Erin Carney gave the Cardinals their biggest lead of the game. It was time for Bedford to circle the wagons and they did by going on an 8 to 2 run to get them within 7 at 42 to 35 at the end of the 3rd.
Bedford started out the 4th quarter with 2 Laniyan lay ups in the first minute to make it 42 to 39 BG and it was Game On!! For the next 2 minutes the 2 teams traded baskets and it brought us to the most crucial point of the game. With 4:13 left BG held a tenuous 48 to 44 lead. For the next 2 minutes Bedford had ample opportunities to cut the BG lead even further, but failed to capitalize. With 2:25 left BG ran an inbounds play to free up one of their senior leaders and the smallest player on the court, BG frosh Erin Carney put in a layup among what seemed like a sea of sequoia trees to put BG up 50 to 44. This was the pivotal play of the game.
For the next 2 minutes BG held the ball and waited for Bedford to foul as Bedford only had 3 team fouls at this point. Carney and Dee canned 1 ft each to give BG some breathing room and all that was left was for the BG faithful to count down the clock to claim their 2nd title in a row.
Bedford graduates a lot in the senior trio of Laniyan, Blake and Meservey. That is a lot of points, rebounds, defense and heart to replace next season for the Sue Thomas squad.
BG graduates a lot also. 4 of their 5 starters are seniors. The difference for BG is that they received quality minutes and contributions form freshmen off the bench. Freshmen Hannah Muchmore, Addison Smith and Erin Carney didn't play like a typical freshmen and combined with returning junior Caroline Hoffer they will probably make BG the pre-season #1 for next season. With 2 titles in a row under their belt and a solid foundation in place for the next few years for the Brad Kreick BG basketball program, it might be time to start discussion if this BG program can come close to replicating the 5 titles in a row the Winnacunnet program won from 2007 to 2001.

I'm taking a time out from "mommy blogging" today to say Happy Anniversary to my husband. We are celebrating 4 years of marriage today!
We got married on Memorial Day weekend in 2011 - May 28, to be exact. We didn't plan it this way, but having our anniversary fall on/near Memorial Day has worked out well for us, as we've made it tradition to celebrate our anniversary not with gifts, but with trips!
Our first year we went to Santa Barbara. Next to Savannah and last year to Puerto Rico (I was 10 weeks preggo for that trip). This year, we went to Key West.
We weren't sure what this year's anniversary would look like due to Liam's arrival. But after much debate and conversation as we decided our destination. we felt that in the end, bring Liam would be too much for everyone. For starters, I'd have to travel with him alone to meet Bryan in Florida. Second, Florida is hot, and at 5 months old, our little one isn't "supposed" to really be in the sun much. Not to mention he was sweating his cute little buns off at a recent Cubs game and I felt so miserable, I didn't want him to be hot for a whole 5 days. Third, being that he's still a young babe and we're just coming out of a nasty sleep regression, we didn't want to A) completely mess up the schedule that's been working for us or B) be confined to our hotel in order to keep to said schedule.
Plus, sometimes it's nice to have time together without the baby. Like, really nice.
I was so sad, scared, anxious, guilty and ALL OF THE FEELS before we left, but getting out the door was the hardest part. We left him with Gigi (my mom) and we trust her, and any family member, to no end. Since we don't live in the same state as our families, they jump at the chance to watch him. Once we were together in Florida, of course we missed him. But we knew we'd made the right choice in leaving him with Gigi and aimed not to spend our whole vacation focused on missing our babe.
Where we stayed: Sheraton Suites Key West and The Westin Key West Resort & Marina. (Thank you, Starwood Points!) We splurged with points staying at The Westin, and I will say that it was not worth the points used. A nice hotel, but in retrospect, the Sheraton was just as nice.
What we did: On Friday, we drove down to Key West from Miami. We got settled at our hotel, then spent some time by the pool having drinks before showering and heading to Duval Street for (more) drinks and dinner.
If you've never been to Key West, Duval Street is basically like Bourbon Street, River Street or Beale Street - it's just bar after bar after shop after restaurant after bar. And you can have "to go" drinks! So we spent much of our vacation spending time visiting the many hidden gems on Duval! Bryan had a list of places we wanted to go, so we spread them out over our time on the Island.
Smallest Bar in Key West: Literally just has a counter to order drinks, and one stool.
The Original Margaritaville
Key West is also known for the Sunset Celebration in Mallory Square, so we went down there every night to watch the Sunset. So lively with street performers and entertainment like live music!
On Saturday, we rented bikes from the hotel and biked our way around the Island. We stopped at Casa Marina, posh hotel (it's a Waldorf property) where Bryan stayed on a business trip and had drinks/watched the rich folk interact. We also stopped at the Southernmost Point of the USA! Super cool, but really it's just a photo opp.
Gorgeous pool view from Casa Marina
Next we biked to Fort Zachary Taylor and hit up a beach down there. Then it was back to the hotel to shower and head to dinner on the water!
On Sunday, we were supposed to get up early to go snorkeling on a boat tour, but we were too tired and just wanted to sleep in! (We were without baby, remember!) So we spent the first part of the day by the pool and just relaxed, then we showered and headed back down to Duval to hit some of the spots we hadn't been yet.
We went to two different wine bars (above) that were both awesome!
Sunday night, it was back to the Sunset Celebration and out for more food and drinks! So really, we spent most of the trip int he sunshine, drinking and eating. Not too bad, you know?
It was so nice to be excited to come home, too. Normally at the end of vacay, you're bummed, but now we have our sweet boy to come home to. Before we left, it was super hard to make the decision to leave him behind, but we know it was the best choice. Plus we came back as better, refreshed parents.
How was your Memorial Day?

Data models
What actually are data models, as in an object, relational, network and hierarchical data model? Can you tell me their basic features, their advantages and disadvantages?
This question is a little outside my scope as it relates more to data structures than storage.
Of the four you mention, I do not think the "network data model" is very useful. There is too much ambiguity to the idea.
The object data model implies such things as inheritance for objects that have child parent relationships.
The relational data model is based on the relationship between data in tables made up of rows and columns. Advanced descriptions of the relational model discuss normalization of the data to ensure there is no redundancy and possibility for inconsistent (stale) data.
The hierarchical data model implies relationships of data in a database that is accessed through defined hierarchies, as opposed to tables.

Deciding how to trade Bear Stearns and other financial giants on a day when the bottom seems to be falling out of the sector depends largely on your investment goals.
Long-term investors are in a better position to weather the storm of doubt that has come with the move by the Federal Reserve and JP Morgan Chase to provide emergency fundingto prop up Bear Stearns, analysts say. Bear said its liquidity had deteriorated rapidly in the past 24 hours, and its shares have lost nearly half their value today.

Research Project
Grant-in-Aid for General Scientific Research (C)
We analyzed the molecular mechanism for the Ig multiple isotype expression using a transgenic mouse model system. Though most of the endogenous mu chain expression was excluded by the expression of the human rearranged mu transgene in TG.SA mouse, a significant portion of splenic B lymphocytes could express the transgenic human IgM and endogenous mouse IgG simultaneously after stimulation with LPS and IL-4. The FACS-purified population of the human IgM^+/mouse IgG^+ cells expressed mRNA which consisted of properly spliced sequences of the transgenic V_HDJ_H and the endogenous mouse C_<gamma> genes (trans-mRNA), together with the transgenic human mu mRNA and germline transcripts of the mouse C_<gamma> gene, without apparent rearrangement of the transgene. We also found that a lymphoma tumor, derived from the TG.SA mouse, expressed the trans-mRNA and the transgenic mu mRNA without DNA rearrangement in either the transgene or the endogenous mouse switch region. We further investigated regulation of trans-mRNA expression. Regulated expression of trans-mRNA was similar to but slightly different from that of class switching. All the endogenous isotypes that are the targets of class switching were expressed in the trans-mRNA after appropriate stimulation. We could also detect trans-mRNA expression in another transgenic mouse line which carries a rearranged mouse V_HDJ_H-C_<mu> gene. These results indicate that trans-mRNA synthesis is not restricted to either a particular transgenic line or an isotype, but is a general mechanism to express a second isotype with the V_H regions of rearranged mu chain transgenes. These findings strongly support that the trans-splicing can account for the Ig multiple isotype expression.

Know Before You Go
If you approach the marker from the front of the building you will not be able to see it as the gate is locked, but to the left of the building is a parking lot. Pull into the parking lot and drive all the way around to the other side of the building. If you park there you can walk up to the entrance on the other side of the fence and gate and see the marker. This is private property and there is video surveillance. If there isn't an event and plenty of parking and you are respectful, nobody ever seems to mind.

\Those who are ready to build an outside kitchen should look at outside kitchen designs pictures. They should get a feel for the kitchens others have built and then decide how they would like theirs to look. They might want to take a few elements from one kitchen and a few from another so that theirs will be built to best fit them. They will enjoy working outside in the little kitchen if they pick out everything that they want for it.
They can make the kitchen be all that they want as long as they keep their budget in mind. They should think about it in regard to the outside kitchen designs pictures, and they should figure out which pieces they can add while sticking with it. When they figure things out well they will be able to make a great looking kitchen even while not spending too much money for it.

Oboe, Bassoon, english horn, clarinet, saxophone, recorder.
All the above can be mic'd pretty much the same as the sound emanates from the whole instrument. A ribbon works quite well on these instruments as the sound can have an edge to it that the ribbon can tame down. A condenser mic can work just as well. Place in front of the instrument about 2′ aimed towards the middle of the instrument.
Flutes, Piccolo: because the sound comes from the whole of the instrument mic-ing just the end or the mouth area will not give you the proper sound. Use a omni condenser placed above the instrument about 2′.
What are you favorite techniques for recording woodwinds?

Universal Tube and Rollform Equipment Corporation, a maker of tube manufacturing machines, is suing video-sharing giant YouTube because of its similarly sounding web name. Universal Tube's website, utube.com, has been knocked offline several times from people who misspelled youtube.com's website.
Universal Tube has filed the lawsuit in United State District Court and is asking YouTube to stop using YouTube.com or pay for utube.com to switch over to a new name. Universal Tube doesn't think it has to change their name because utube.com was registered in 1996 which is almost a decade before YouTube.com's 2005 February registration.
The small 17 employee Universal Tube says that its website received 68 million hits in August which is much than what it usually gets. A quick look at utube.com's Alexa traffic ranking shows a spike in traffic over the last two months.
Utube.com is currently offline at the time of this article.

Some say jewelry is just an accessory but according to Cheeky Couture, jewelry is a way of life. Cheeky Couture is a designer line of cubic zirconium (CZ) and crystal jewelry based out of Indianapolis.
Since its founding in 2004, Cheeky Couture has become a staple line in many of Indianapolis' and surrounding area boutiques. With twenty-five locations nationwide, the company has grown tremendously with much thanks to social media and devoted personal stylists, says Lisa Miller, VP of Sales and Marketing. "Our stylists carry the line because they're passionate about our jewelry, it's unique and fun – they sell it because they love it," Miller said.
Miller and Cheeky founder Angie Belttari-Parker aren't just two women selling bracelets and earrings, they're pure jewelry enthusiasts. The mission of Cheeky Couture is to inspire women to look and feel their absolute best. Miller and Parker believe this is when women will be their most confident self.
Price points range from $12 to $125 which Miller says is important to keep the line accessible but they also work to achieve a balance between keeping the prices reasonable while continuing to offer one-of-a-kind collections.
Future goals for Cheeky Couture include expanding into a physical storefront location and adding a line of upscale lingerie as early as February of 2011.
In the meantime, they plan to continue their expansion to more boutiques, salons, and spas throughout Indianapolis and the rest of the country.
Cheeky Couture has long been a cheerleader to the Indianapolis fashion scene and an active supporter of many members of the fashion arts community. I applaud them for recognizing the importance of encouraging creativity and kinship in an industry that often falls short in offering accolades for its peers.
Perhaps it's time for more of us to "get our cheeky on."

As my new growth gets longer my wash days are getting simpler. This week I introduced my hair to new a protein product.
- Pre-poo'd by an overnight deep condition like last week (yes, I might be hooked) using the Eden BodyWorks Jojoba Deep Conditioner
- Cleansed using a moisturizing shampoo that I massaged only onto my scalp
- Treated my hair with Aphogee 2 Minute Keratin Reconstructor which I left on for about five minutes and rinse out with my green tea, apple cider vinegar mix
- Conditioned with Suave Natural Infusions Moisturizing Conditioner for about five minutes
- T-shirt dried for an hour
- Applied Nothing But Melted Shea Butter to my damp hair in sections and then tension dried with my blow dryer and finished off with coconut oil
- That night I cross wrapped my hair to get it smooth
The next day I clean, smooth, moisturized hair that I styled using the headband tuck. For the rest of the week, I'm alternating between buns, braids, and half ponytails.
This was my first time using the Aphogee 2 Minute Keratin Reconstructor and I really liked it. My hair feels stronger, softer and heavier. I haven't decided whether I'll use it every wash day or every other wash day.

London 2012 faces loss of £40m sponsorship
London 2012 is in danger of losing backing valued at about £40 million after the disclosure yesterday that one of its biggest sponsors, Nortel, the telecommunications equipment firm, has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy.
The announcement of Nortel's financial woes came a day after B&Q, the DIY chain, said that it was not going to renew its Olympic sponsorship programme, which gave funding to promising athletes. However, London 2012 was able to buck the trend by revealing a new sponsor, Adecco, the recruitment company, which will supervise recruitment within the London Organising Committee of the Olympic Games (Locog) for the next three-and-a-half years.
Adecco is categorised as a tier-two sponsor and its support will be worth about £20 million. However, Locog is still in a…

It is hard to believe that over a week has already passed since Stampin' Up! Europe hosted its first Onstage Live event. Thankfully we were amongst the lucky ones to have our weekend of fun in Brussels and are grateful that it was not this past weekend when it would have left many of us in turmoil just like the poor residents and tourists in Brussels now. Thoughts are with all those affected both there and in Paris.
It was a memorable weekend in more ways than one and I loved spending time with some of my team, friends and fellow demonstrators. As I mentioned in my Stampin' Up! UK spring catalogue post I was honoured to have been asked to share a product spotlight with other demonstrators and you can see me mic'd up in the top picture. Above is a picture of myself and Annette attending the Manager's Reception onboard a boat with live jazz trio and an interesting, but delicious meal.
An opportunity for which I have my dedicated team and wonderful customers to thank for their support and friendship in helping me to grow my Stampin' Up! business. Thank you all.
We two, along with my lovely friend Mikaela, walked the stage together for our annual sales achievement. We later celebrated our successes and friendships later with a meal in a fun restaurant. Lizzie celebrated her birthday earlier in the week and was surprised by the whole restaurant singing Happy Birthday to her.

Day 2 of our Osaka trip ended on an extremely fun (and shagged) note. Yes, we woke early to reach Universal Studios Japan (USJ) by 8.30am, which we had already encountered a snaking queue all the way out of the park.
Universal Studios Japan (USJ)
While we were here, we also took the opportunity to check out the Shingeki no Kyojin (Attack of the Titans) exhibition, where we were able to take many awesome photos with the life-sized 3D models. It was extremely fun as we also joined in the USS parade and we danced and chased the parade cars around USJ. It was a great day, every one was having fun. #AwesomeUSJTrip
More on USJ in a separate post (coming soon)
After a whole day of partying (sort-of), we head to the world's laziest egg cafe: Gudetama Cafe. This Sanrio character cafe has a couple of branches in Japan but Osaka's branch is the latest addition. Once we plonked into the cushy seats, we took 10 minutes to regain our senses before we actually placed an order.
The food was pretty alright, and even as we were so tired, we had a blast taking all those pictures of the laziest character on planet Earth.

Susie Steiner's novel has been described as a police procedural, and it is that. Set in the UK, the main protagonist is Detective Sergeant Manon Bradshaw, who works in Cambridgeshire. She is working on a case of a missing twenty-something woman Edith Hind who has disappeared. Her parents are both doctors, and are well connected and can make trouble for the local police if they don't find their daughter. But she may have come to harm, so the police look for clues everywhere, and uncover a great deal about Edith's life. Readers learn a lot about Manon's life too: she is 39 years old, and can't find a boyfriend. Instead she goes on a lot of dates, sleeps with the men, and never sees them again. This is far from hedonism: she is unhappy and is scared about her approaching forties. Her level of existential discomfort is reminiscent of Henning Mankell's Kurt Wallander, who is driven to devote his life to solving crime even though the work destroys his personal life.
What sets this apart from standard procedurals, however, is the quality of the writing. The narrative focus switches between the major female characters, and although each has unlikeable characteristics, we see how they try to make sense of their lives and the tensions threatening to pull them apart. It's a remarkably perceptive and thoughtful novel that raises issues of gender, class and race. It provides a better picture of life in Britain than most supposedly "literary" novels. And the prose writing is so spare it is poetic -- not in a high minded, alienating way, but rather it draws you in with its slightly unusual turns of phrase and its startling economies. The unabridged audiobook is performed by Juanita McMahon, who brings the book to life with a wonderful reading.

aloysia virgata, Butterflies, Host Plants, nectar plants, New Orleans, roses and Gargoyles Gardenscapes, sweet almond bush, sweet alyssum
This is the type of news article I like to see … positive and helpful to our world: Michigan park plants 400k milkweed seeds to help Monarchs.
When planting a butterfly garden it's important to have both host and nectar plants. A "host" is the plant caterpillars eat, and "nectar" is the plant butterflies get nectar from. Milkweed is one of the few plants that is both a host and nectar plant.
In the New Orleans area we have some butterflies who don't migrate during the winter. That's why we should plan our butterfly garden to have nectar plants growing and blooming year round. On my little balcony I have Sweet Almond Bush, Aloysia virgata,
and Sweet Alyssum, Lobularia maritima,
both of which bloom through the winter and provide nectar for butterflies and other beneficial insects. Plus their blooms are very fragrant, and that makes me very happy.
Happy digging in the dirt …
