Revel Body®: the world's first sonic vibrator.
The Indiegogo campaign is nearly over. We have been heartened and humbled by the overwhelming response to our campaign to deliver a better vibrator. Your comments and support are so welcome and appreciated. Thank you. We wouldn't be here, on the figurative eve of launching the Revel Body® sonic vibrator™, without you.
The Need it Now supporters should be seeing their product soon and I will have more insight into the balance of our production and delivery schedule before long. Full disclosure, our packaging supplier was having difficulty meeting requirements and we have engaged another, hence the production delay. The good news is that the product itself is awesome and I am expecting to see equal quality in the delivery package as well.
As always, you can reach me directly at email@example.com. Partnering with you as been a pleasure!
Warm regards,
If you would like to shop for the current version of the Revel Body please visit our shop page.

We hope that our work and your support will significantly improve the lives of people around the world. Thank you for joining us in this journey.
Revolutionary Technology for an Underserved Industry
At Revel Body, we believe sexual wellbeing is core to human health and happiness. We also believe in having a little fun. Introducing the Revel Body sonic vibrator™, a first of its kind and a game changer in the sexual wellness industry.
We focused on this industry because it is large and its products under serve the many consumers who rely on it. We decided to innovate on vibration motor technology when we observed that all of the existing battery-powered vibrators use the same vibrating motors and that these motors operate in a very small fraction of the range that people can feel. Additionally, they are the cause of many of the complaints that users have with existing products; noise, reliability, poor battery life, etc.
Competitors in this industry compete on price, packaging, branding, colors, shapes and ornamentation, but they do not compete on the primary function of these devices: vibration. Almost all companies in this industry pay lip service to having quiet, powerful vibration but in reality they use the same class of vibration motors and have very similar vibration performance.
Given this perspective, we focused on developing technology to provide much better sensation by expanding the range and power of vibration. We also worked to eliminate the many problems that are caused by the existing motor technology.
TrueSonic® Technology
One technology which seemed promising was resonating motor technology, the same motors that power sonic toothbrushes. They are linear resonating motors which are very efficient, can be very quiet, and are extremely reliable and simple to manufacture. But, they have a major drawback; they typically only operate at a single resonating frequency.
Having software development backgrounds, we were very focused on testing with real consumers. From our initial tests-which were wildly successful (our first three prototypes were preferred over several premium vibrators by our test group)-we observed that everyone likes different vibration (from slow and thumpy to fast and buzzy, and low power to strong) and people like to be able to adjust vibration over time. It was clear that resonating motor technology was a great alternative, but we needed a way to make the motor adjustable to run at different speeds.
After several years of research and development, we created TrueSonic technology - enabling the first adjustable linear resonating motor. There was two parts to this problem; first to figure out a way to adjust the system so that the resonant peak would shift (meaning motor would resonate at a different speed), then to develop embedded electronics and software to determine speed and to run the device at that speed. This development led to the granting of our core and fundamental patent for a continuously adjustable resonating motor, which could have applications in a variety of industries.
While everyone else uses the same motor, we have already developed three. We expect to provide a long line of sonic-powered massagers for women, men and couples. We will work with other companies, in this industry and others, to allow them to use our motor technology.
The motor in our first product consists of only a small handful of components and only a single moving part. The TrueSonic motor is simple and elegant, but the physics are complex. Sophisticated embedded electronics and software that are only recently available and affordable enable this motor to operate and be manufactured at a reasonable cost.
Our Revel Body sonic vibrator, powered by TrueSonic technology, will provide superior sensation over standard existing battery-powered vibrators1 including:
- 50% more power, but don't worry you don't have to use all of that power. 2
- 200% greater sensation range3
- 90% less noise4
In the graph below, which shows our pre-production motor performance compared to other premium products, notice the massive increase in range of speed from slow and thumpy to fast and buzzy. Also note the significantly higher power. Competing products have so little power that you can barely feel them, the Revel Body has the capability to deliver customzed vibration and signifantly more power to allow you to experience much better sensation.
The Revel Body Sonic Vibrator
As we developed and tested our motor and started focusing on designing a form for our first device we had many discussions with users about existing devices and the issues associated with them, including:
- Ergonomics – many consumers complain of sore elbows, wrists and hands from having to hold small and awkward shapes.
- Vibration to the hand – most vibrators shake the hand as much as they shake what you are trying to vibrate. This leads to numb or sore hands.
- Embarrassing Forms – we heard many stories of people being embarrassed by their vibrator as they went through TSA or when a child found a device and brought it out during a family party.
- Humiliating Branding and Packaging – unfortunately many brands cling to a pornographic branding metaphor that can be degrading and humiliating to the consumers who use their products. There is enough pressure to be sexy in this world already.
- Toxic Materials – there are many out there that other brands use including phthalates, nickel, lead, etc. We will never include these materials in our products. We use only inert and safe materials like body-safe silicone.
- Intuitive Controls – many products are confusing to impossible to control. We focused on building simple and easy-to-use controls.
The Revel Body is inspired by a shape that most people are accustomed to holding, a tennis ball. With our form, the user's hand is open, relaxed and comfortable. It is easy to control and modulate pressure. Pressure on fingers and joints is minimized. With existing devices you have to press hard to get sensation. With our new motor, you just hold the device and let it do the work. Even if you use the same pressure with our device, you get about 80% less vibration to your hand because of the unique way the motor operates.
The design of the Revel Body is meant to be elegant, clean and modern. We wanted a form that people could display on their nightstand. While the Revel Body was designed as a sexual vibrator, it is also a great body massager. It is equally good at sexual sensation as it is at soothing sore muscles. With the clean design, our consumers can choose to call it a sexual vibrator or a body massager.
The USB powered Revel Body is designed to work anywhere in the world. We will offer some great accessories including interchangeable tips with different shapes, textures and sensations.
We think that our Revel Body Sonic Vibrator will disrupt this industry and make a lot of people happy in the process. It outperforms all other products we have tested in the lab on every performance measurement. We hope that this product will be a success in the market, and that it willl force other brands in the industry to better serve consumers.

In the midst of a blizzard of negative campaign commercials, congressional candidate Charles Djou is running a positive spot that we think is the best ad of the season.
Yes, we know folks on Maui can't vote for or against Djou - he is running for the U.S. House seat in District 1. We are in District 2.
In any event, Djou points out in the commercial that when he was serving in the military in Afghanistan there were no Republican or Democrat soldiers - just American soldiers.
He pledged that if he is elected to Congress, he will bring that same mindset to Washington - not a Democrat or Republican approach to our problems, but an American one.
The bipartisanship shown in this commercial is exactly what this country needs. The structural problems of the federal budget are certainly every bit as challenging and threatening as a war. Our legislators need to view themselves as warriors fighting a common enemy - out of control deficits.
So, as we are subjected to one final week of mudslinging, let's hope that those elected Tuesday take a Djou-like approach to the federal budget. The other party is not the enemy. Stop looking for political advantages and start looking for real solutions.
Work together to strengthen America.

This is where I get piss, why can't people let this dude live his life? I will agree, he has lip sychn some of his act, but how can somebody sing and dance at the same time, when you all know damn well that it is very hard to do. Chris is very talent person and has alot to look forward too. So what made me mad is when Pink made a statement about somebody career, when clearly her career is on the egde to crash. When the last time she made a CD or hit? Let me answer, 6yrs ago. Pink is just hating because nobody pay her ass any attention. Stalking this dude is not going to make it any better. Pink wouldn't never comment on anything about Chris, if he wouldn't had that issues with Rihanna 4yrs ago. Shit, if she going to make comments on people job, make sure she call out names of other's too.
Dont kid yourself, the "Rihanna incident" has been a career boon for him. He may have had a harder time fending off Trey Songz, Jeremih & all the other young guys who have come for his crown, if his name wasnt constantly in the news. ANY PUBLICITY IS GOOD PUBLICITY.
In anycase, he may have lost some fans but he gained a whole new crop. Starting with those who hated Rihanna to the sympathy-crowd. Not to mention his old stans just grow more fanatic when he is attacked. Beating Rihannna was actually good for his career - believe!
And I agree with some of the other comments. He isn't the only one who lip syncs. So, WHY oh WHY is everyone ganging up on him? Because of what he had done to Rhianna in the past. If we are going to bash him (Pink, Carey Hart, Miranda f*cking Lambert, Joe JOnas, etc.), then why don't we bash other artists who do it to? I don't see any one of you haters bringing up their names. Let's all make a list so Pally and some of the others can go on their HWG page and bash them?
Usually I love your comments, you always state your point simply but eloquently. I just think you have it wrong today.
Chris Brown is obviously still a very deeply flawed individual but thats hardly the point Pink is making. She is merely suggesting that people who making a living singing - should SING. Thats a very reasonable expectation. Usher, Neyo, Timberlake & the late great MJ managed to both sing and dance. Why cant this guy?
You are the reason why women who are abused can't get through or passed their situations. Yes, he beat Rhianna. Was he in the wrong? Yes. But two people can make a wrong and sometimes, yes in abusive situations like these. We don't know what was said that night or what really happened. Bottom line is, he shouldnt have laid his hands on her. But he has and still is paying the price for it. He has lost a lot of fans and a lot of respect from various artists, a lot of which still won't talk to him. So, since it didn't happen to YOU I'm assuming unless Rhianna now goes by a different name, I suggest you and everyone else move the f*ck passed this foolishness and let her and Chris Brown live their lives. Let her get on with hers. I'm sure she hates it when the media brings it up so why should we continue to do the same thing? Keep your mouth closed and move on.

I do not own an ipad, but am considering it as I've heard so many people say "It's the best thing I ever owned". I want to do three main things, and I need to know "can I do this?", and "what is the best free or paid app for it?".
1) While I'm in the library, plug in a USB drive that contains my 10,000 excel files and open them so I can see what data I need to research that day. Laptop is possible, but very bulky and much less convenient. What I want to do is read only.
2) While I'm talking to a client in a sales meeting, draw out a sketch a la white board, and have an app that converts that sketch (however roughly) to a Visio.
3) While I'm teaching a kid math, write on the ipad like it's paper (multiple pages even cuz I write large...), save the graphics and notes along with the audio of our session, and then a) e-mail them to the kid later, and b) save them (converting my scrawl into math type would be primo) so I can collect them one day into a "this is how I teach these subjects in math" book.
Maybe this is too advanced, but I need to know if for $600 I can do these things please.
Thanks very much for the help!

Not arguing any of that, but the very best learning experience would be in game right? 3-5 minutes in the 3rd, couple in the 4th would only have helped in his overall development...and ultimately ours.

King Cake
Categories: All, Cakes, Desserts, Holiday, Recipes
Tags: , Allergy Friendly, Dairy Free, GFCF, King Cake, Mardi Gras
After the Twelfth Night of Christmas, a culinary tradition begins in the South that most folks only associate with Mardi Gras Day in New Orleans – the colorful King Cake. Biblical tradition holds that kings visited the baby Jesus by traveling for 12 days to reach him on what we now call "Epiphany." Beginning at Epiphany and lasting only until Mardi Gras day, the tradition of a King Cake in the Southern United States has evolved from what was brought by European settlers in the 1700s to what we now recognize as one of the preeminent symbols of the revelry of Mardi Gras.
Today, King Cakes are used to select Mardi Gras Kings and Queens as well as to celebrate the season in households and at parties across the country. King Cakes have many looks, the most classic being a crown shaped pastry dotted with the sugared colors of Carnival: purple, gold and green. Some have fillings, others do not, though they all house a hidden trinket like a plastic (formerly porcelain) baby. The trinket hidden inside each cake adds to its popularity, although the uninitiated often fail to recognize that finding the trinket inside your piece of cake may come not only with privileges (good fortune and/or becoming the King or Queen of the ball) but just as often with responsibilities (bringing the next cake!). King Cake was served at my baby shower by my daughter's marraine (her Godmother, to you un-cajun-ites!), and I served King Cake at the baby shower I hosted for my daughter's marraine (mah-rehn) in return.
Until now, I was unable to enjoy anything but the tiny plastic baby trinket I found in my King Cake, as I had never had a gluten-free version. This cinnamon-roll-like creation is fast becoming a family favorite here, as the first one I made was devoured in a single evening! You'll love it too!
King Cake
Pastry Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup warm water (110 F)
- 1 Tbs. granulated cane sugar
- 2 1/4 tsp. (1 packet) highly active, fast rise yeast (e.g. Red Star® Quick Rise Instant Gluten-Free Yeast)
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter or non-dairy alternative (e.g. Earth Balance® Buttery Sticks)
- 3 Tbs. granulated cane sugar
- 1/4 cup warm milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 2 large eggs (room temperature)
- 3 cups Jules Gluten Free™ All-Purpose Flour
- 1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg
- 2 tsp. gluten-free baking powder
- 1/2 tsp. salt (1/4 tsp. salt if using non-dairy alternative)
- 2 Tbs. milk (dairy or non-dairy) for brushing on pastry before baking
Filling Ingredients:
- 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup Jules Gluten Free™ All Purpose Flour
- 1 apple, peeled and chopped (optional)
- 2/3 cup chopped pecans (optional)
- 4 Tbs. butter or non-dairy alternative (e.g. Earth Balance® Buttery Sticks)
Icing Ingredients:
- 1 cup confectioner's sugar
- 1-2 Tbs. milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1/4 tsp. pure almond extract (optional)
- colored sugar (purple, gold and green)
Prepare the filling by tossing the chopped apples together with the Jules Gluten Free™ All Purpose Flour, brown sugar and cinnamon. In a separate bowl, melt the 4 tablespoons butter, and set both bowls aside.
In a small bowl, combine the warm water, 1 tablespoon sugar and yeast; stir and set aside to proof. If the mixture is not bubbly and doubled in volume after 5-10 minutes, toss out and start again with fresh yeast.
In a large mixing bowl, blend the remaining 3 tablespoons sugar and butter until light and fluffy. Add the milk and eggs and beat until well-integrated. Add only 2 cups of Jules Gluten Free™ All Purpose Flour, salt, baking powder and nutmeg and mix well. Stir in the proofed yeast-sugar-water mixture, then add the remaining 1 cup Jules Gluten Free™ All Purpose Flour. Beat another 1-2 minutes, until the dough is clumping together and is not too sticky.
Prepare a large baking sheet by lining with parchment paper. Turn the dough out onto a silicone pastry mat or onto a clean counter dusted lightly with Jules Gluten Free™ All Purpose Flour (be sure to have enough counter space, at least 30 inches wide). Roll the dough out to an elongated rectangle 24-30 inches long by 9-10 inches wide. Brush on the melted butter, coating the entire rectangle. Sprinkle the filling mixture on top of the melted butter, spreading to the ends of the rectangle, but leaving 1/2-1 inch without toppings on each of the long sides of the rectangle.
Using a bench scraper or a spatula, gently peel up one of the long sides of the rectangle and begin rolling it as you would a jelly roll. Once the entire pastry is rolled upon itself until no pastry remains unrolled, a 24-30 inch long roll will remain. Gently pull the two ends of the roll together to form a circle or oval. Dabbing the ends of the pastry with water, join the ends together to close the circle. Gently transfer the ring to the parchment-lined baking sheet, or transfer the ring on the silicone baking mat to the baking sheet.
Brush the milk on top of the exposed pastry, then using a large sharp knife, make a cut in the top of the pastry every 2 inches to expose one layer of the roll. Spray a sheet of wax paper with cooking oil, then cover the cake and let rise in a warm spot for 20-30 minutes like a warming drawer or an oven heated to 200º F then turned off.
Preheat oven to 350º F (static) or 325º F (convection).
Remove the wax paper from the cake and bake for 20-25 minutes. Remove to a wire rack to cool. While cooling, mix icing ingredients and drizzle over the cake. Sprinkle colored sugar on top of wet icing, alternating colors between each cut in the top of the cake. Once cooled, insert a pecan or toy baby into the underside of the cake to hide it. Serve when fully cooled.

This was a delicious recipe. I was quite surprised how easy the dough was to work with and didn't take very long at all to make this gem. Another keeper! Thanks so much!
Jules said: on March 10, 2011
So glad you loved it! King Cake just looks hard (which is half the fun!), but even if you mess it up a bit, you just cover it with glaze and sanding sugar so no one can tell! ; )
Becki said: on September 3, 2011
Your recipe looks and sounds delicious (and perfect for me to make to send for my son and a classmate with food allergies. Could Ener-G Egg Substitute be used in your recipe in place of the Eggs? Thank you so much.
Jules said: on February 10, 2012
Becki – my apologies, somehow I missed seeing your question! Regarding the eggs, in this recipe I think I would prefer using the flaxseed meal + water egg sub instead of Ener-G. I tend to love Ener-G in cookies, but not so much in cakes or breads. Hope that helps!
Andrea said: on January 6, 2012
Thank you for sharing this recipe! I'm a new orleanian that's moved out of state. I've been making king cakes myself since I moved away, but have never really been all that pleased with my cakes. now I have a newborn that's lactose intolerant so I was seeking a dairy free recipe and found yours. I just made it to kick off the 2012 season and am so impressed! I think it's my best cake yet! So happy!
Jules said: on January 6, 2012
Andrea that's fantastic! So glad you loved the recipe and that it suited you New Orleans roots & your family's dietary needs!!!
Ashley said: on January 12, 2012
I have never heard of Jules. Could I substitute Bob's Red Mill All-purpose Gluten free flour?
Jules said: on January 13, 2012
Ashley, Bob's gluten-free flour is quite different from my blend. For starters, it doesn't contain any binding agents to hold the final product together (like xanthan gum) and it is made with bean flours that can leave a funky aftertaste in delicate baked goods like this cake. You could use it in this recipe if you added your own xanthan gum, but it still wouldn't come out looking or tasting just like this one. If you want to read more about my flour, click here! It allows you to make a regular wheat flour recipe without having to add expensive gums and without leaving any aftertaste or grit. I hope you get to make this cake – it's so fun!
Jennifer said: on February 8, 2013
Does your flour use GMO free ingredients? Especially the corn, rice and potato.
Jules said: on February 8, 2013
Hi Jennifer – my All Purpose Flour is GMO-Free at this time.
BECKY said: on February 11, 2013
Ashley, Once you use Jule's flour, you will never use Bob's red Mill again. You use it in any recipe the same as wheat flour and the taste is unbelievable!

Hi Jules:
I just used this recipe for a project with my kids and it was very tasty and turned out really cute! Love your blog.
Warm regards,

Jules said: on February 17, 2012
Sherri – so glad you're ready to start experimenting and bringing old favorites back into your new gluten-free life! Happy I can help with good recipes! Enjoy this one!!!
Karen said: on February 15, 2012
Hi Jules! I love your flour and every recipe of yours that I try always turns out just wonderful. Can't wait to try this one soon, as soon I get over the bronchitis I have that is. In your directions, you state to use the melted butter for the TOPPING, to be brushed on the dough once it is rolled out into a rectangle. Do you mean the butter for the FILLING? I was a little confused at first! Thanks!
Jules said: on February 17, 2012
Hi Karen – so sorry you're feeling bad! Bronchitis is NO fun! Hope you're feeling up to many things soon, including making this recipe!
I'll go back and look at the recipe – topping and filling are the same thing, but you make a good point, I'll change to make the term the same so there's no confusion. Thanks for pointing that out!
Brie said: on February 19, 2012
Hi! I attempted this recipe this morning and my dough was very dry, I couldn't roll it. Can I use water or milk (this was my test run, I have another to make tomorrow!) To make the dough more pliable?
Thanks Jules! I have 4 bags of your flour at my house so I love these recipes (especially this one, being the Tulane Alumna I am!)
Jules said: on February 20, 2012
Hi Brie – I'm sorry the dough was dry for you. Absolutely, you can use water or milk – dairy or non-dairy – (preferred) to get the dough where you need it to be. Hopefully round two will work out great for you! Happy Mardi Gras!
Rachel said: on February 20, 2012
I made this yesterday for my Celiac group meeting and they gobbled it up! Everyone was raving about how wonderful it was. Thanks for sharing.
Jules said: on February 20, 2012
That's fantastic, Rachel! So glad you made it (and so nice of you to share!)

Loved the king cake! I was so happy that my two girls could enjoy this treat again! I made it twice, once with your flour and once without. It was much, much better with your flour! I am from New Orleans so I know what I am talking about. My daughter informed me that I cant wait a whole year before I make it again!
Jules said: on March 2, 2012
Carol – I am so happy that your family has been loving this recipe!!! And very cool that you tried the recipe with another flour and that you had better results with mine! Woot woot! Laissez les bon temps rouler!
Berni Foster said: on February 11, 2013
Well, this was interesting. I find that often gluten free doughs are very fragile but I stumbled upon a way to make it easier to work with. As I was out of chicken eggs, I used 1 extremely large duck egg (a friend has a flock). This made the dough stiffer and easier to work with. Also, I dusted the parchment paper with flour, rolled (pressed actually) the dough out on it, trimmed it, and then lifted one end and used it to roll the dough onto itself. Once it was formed, I just lifted the dough and parchment together onto the baking sheet and voila! I've also made this with the cream cheese filling. When I do that. I actually form the ring, then overturn a very large, greased Pyrex casserole dish over it and then flip the cake into the dish to cook. That way, there are no cream cheese explosions. Thanks Jules!
Jules said: on February 11, 2013
Brilliant, Bernice! Thanks for sharing those tips! Enjoy that King Cake!!!
Alexis said: on February 12, 2013
Hi Jules!
Do you have any advice for storing this overnight so it is fresh in the morning?-
Jules said: on February 12, 2013
I've just wrapped it tightly and stored at room temperature. If you find it is not soft enough, you can quickly microwave it the next day, but it should be good for a day or two, at least. Enjoy!
Dawn said: on January 24, 2014

Dear Jules,
Thank you so much for making this recipe. I tried several years ago and it needed help to say the least. Your recipe is wonderful.

How wonderful, Chris! Thanks so much for letting me know! I'm so glad you didn't give up and now you have delicious King Cake back in your life!
Michelle said: on March 4, 2014
This sounded so exciting! I really wanted to try this customary King's Cake! However, I have allergies to nightshades as well as gluten. I noticed that your all purpose flour is made with potato starch. Do you happen to have anything for those of us with a double allergy?
Jules Shepard said: on March 4, 2014
Hi Michelle, do you have my book, Free for All Cooking? In it, I give homemade flour blend recipes for successful baking without gluten or nightshades. I'd recommend checking that out and then using recipes like this one for King Cake!

Nothing wrong with Fairley feeling that way if he honestly does, but it's a shame that he's dumb enough to state it publicly to a sportswriter. Decent DT, but he's a largely clueless person in general and continues to prove as much.
Nick Fairley: Lions will play in Super Bowl next season
It's hard to go anywhere but up after the 4-12 season the Detroit Lions had last year. But Nick Fairley, the team's defensive tackle, thinks the Lions will see such a vast improvement over the course of one year that he expects a Super Bowl appearance next season.
In a report Thursday from Detroit News columnist Terry Foster, Fairley is quoted as saying the team is going to the Super Bowl next year and people should expect big things from the team:
"I expect big things. I am going to say we are going to the Super Bowl because I am competitive and that is what I want for the team, and it is one of the goals. I am sure we are going to take it game by game and day by day…I expect big things. We picked up some good guys in the draft. It is going to be up to us (players) to getting the chemistry up to where we can play off each other. We are going to do some big things this year. Those are our expectations."
Despite the high expectations, the Lions are already dealing with disappointing news for one of those draft picks. The team's second-round pick Darius Slay is missing this week's rookie minicamp after undergoing arthroscopic knee surgery earlier in May to repair a torn meniscus. He is expected to miss the rest of the offseason workout schedule but should be ready to go when training camp officially opens in July.

Your busy schedule may not leave much time for horsing around, but that doesn't mean you have to completely rein in your inner stallion. Put some giddy-up back in your step with this Adventure: an afternoon of horseback riding and wine tasting at one of Chicagoland's most beautiful horse farms and forest preserves.
We'll start by hoofing it over to 640 North Wells Street, where our equine experts will be chomping at the bit to help us board a premier bus from Limos Alive and make the short drive to Forest View Farms in Tinley Park. Located next to the Cook County Forest Preserve, Forest View has been offering horseback riding lessons and other horse-related activities to the Chicago area for more than 50 years. Once we arrive, half the group will head out for a one-hour horseback trail ride, while the other half leaves on a 30- to 40-minute hike along the forest preserve's pristine trails.
The groups will then switch places before meeting back at the pavilion for the mane event: a wine tasting provided by Aged 2 Perfection in a pavilion on the farm. There, we'll dine on a catered hot meal provided by Frankie's Catering, including a chicken entrée, side dish, salad, and dessert. With bellies full and cheeks rosy, we'll re-board the bus back to the city, satisfied at having reined in our previously unbridled passion for riding. This is one Adventure that may make us literally say, "whoa!"

Looking to buy a static caravan at coast
Profile | Posted by | Options | Post Date |
RStar | Report | 14 Jan 2013 16:53 |
:-D probably Lincolnshire coast as its nearest to us in the midlands, I cant wait. I was wondering if renting the caravan out is likely to cover the site fees for the year? It'll be a 3 bedroom van, not brand new but in good condition. |
Guinevere | Report | 14 Jan 2013 17:02 |
The site owner usually wants a cut of any renting. |
Researching: |
RStar | Report | 14 Jan 2013 17:07 |
Thanks Gwynne. Im looking at some reliable holiday parks/sites at the minute. Did you have trouble with anyone wrecking the place when you rented it out? Ive thought of charging a deposit, but then we'd have to go up every time someone vacates to inspect the caravan. Suppose we would anyway though to make sure its ok! I dont want us to get into anything we cant sustain really. |
LollyWithSprinklez | Report | 14 Jan 2013 17:22 |
Hope it all works out for you, but think it unlikely you will recoup the site fees the best rental period is probably when you will be wanting to use the static yourself. |
LollyWithSprinklez | Report | 14 Jan 2013 17:33 |
Sorry I was still typing when you posted, I think you are right about the deposit there is bound to be some little damage at some point (never heard of anything major) |
JustGinnie | Report | 14 Jan 2013 17:58 |
I agree that you would have to rent out the van most of the school hols (peak time) to cover the site fees but if you plan to use it yourself a lot then you may be able to make a little towards the fees off peak which would help a bit. |
RStar | Report | 14 Jan 2013 17:58 |
Thanks Lolly. It would be brilliant to have one to escape to, I suppose money is the factor :-( as with everything. Um, we'll have a think about it. xxx |
Libby | Report | 14 Jan 2013 18:05 |
We rented a static caravan out one year to cover the site fees because we were unable to make as much use out of it personally as we usually did .... became self employed and our insurance company stated we had to always be on the premises overnight. |

Purple **^*Sparkly*^** Diamond | Report | 15 Jan 2013 07:32 |
There was something on tv recently, think it was Rip off Britain about holidays, where the people weren't allowed to rent out the van as it was too old, part of the Caravan park's policy. That meant they had to give it up as they couldn't afford the fees without rentals to help out. |
Guinevere | Report | 15 Jan 2013 08:05 |
If you have realistic expectations you'll be fine. They are money pits, though, and you have to realise that before you buy. Every year there was something that needed to be repaired. |
Researching: |
Purple **^*Sparkly*^** Diamond | Report | 15 Jan 2013 18:41 |
Gwynne, that's what I was trying to say, it works out cheaper to rent a place and you can usually find somewhere at short notice who will do a discount because of the late booking, and there is none of the worry or responsibility. We had a small caravan at a local coastal park but it had to be stored there all winter and that cost lots as well as the fact that we couldn't always use it as much as we wanted due to o.h.'s job commitments. We didn't rent it out as it was tiny and we left our things in there. Ended up having to move it to store elsewhere and then didn't use it so sold it for peanuts, well it only cost £500 anyway, we bought it off a neighbour after he let us use it one time. |

Marshall sat on a stool outside the Wichita State locker room and tried to explain the euphoria. "They have a great program, but today they had to beat us," he said. "…Nobody in our program comes from basketball royalty. We're all blue-collar. We're hard-hat and steel-toed workers.… I'm just along for the ride."
Wichita State reminds me a lot of that eclectic cast of characters I followed at Winthrop. The Wichita players are just better at basketball.
The Winthrop kids had nicknames such as "Fish Tank," "Money" and "Bubbles." They had a freshman forward from Nigeria named Ey Effiong and a string-bean guard, Robbie Waldrop, who scored six points against Auburn despite a life-threatening swollen spleen.
Wichita State's roster also includes a player from Nigeria, 7-foot senior center Ehimen Orukpe. He was part of the defensive swarm that helped hold Gonzaga to 35.6% shooting.
Ron Baker, a mop-top freshman guard, missed 21 games this season because of a foot injury. He hit four three-pointers against Gonzaga and finished with 16 points. Carl Hall, a tough but undersized forward, wears goggles. Tekele Cotton is the team's lock-down defender.
The real character is senior guard Malcolm Armstead, a transfer from Oregon. With only one year of eligibility left, Armstead phoned Wichita State and said he wanted to be a Shocker. Marshall told him he didn't have a scholarship to offer. Armstead took out loans to pay his own way.
"He's probably still in debt to this day," Marshall said.
Armstead had to sit out last year under NCAA transfer rules but has made the most of his senior moment. Fairly quiet off the court, he can't stop jabbering on it.
During one game this season, Marshall couldn't get Armstead's attention because he was busy talking to the opposing team's guard.
"I finally said, 'Malcolm, I'm trying to get your attention and you're talking to this other kid. What are you telling him?'" Marshall recalled. "He goes, 'Well, Coach, I had just taken the ball from him and I was telling him he can't dribble the ball so high. It's not going to work.' And I'm going, 'Why are you doing that to the opposition?' And he says, 'Well, he's a nice kid and I want to see him do well.' "
The opening line from my 1999 story was, "What a week it was with Winthrop."
Fourteen years later it's been updated to, "What a weekend it was with Wichita."
At the end of a midweek practice before the NCAA tournament in 1999, first-year Winthrop coach Marshall gathered his team together and said, "Get ready to make history."
It didn't happen to Winthrop then, but it could happen to Wichita now.

I think it's disturbing that Obama is only meeting with the Asian Pacific Islander caucus now, several months after he began working on his re-election campaign rather than in the first few years when there could have been a stronger difference made on behalf of minorities. Frankly, the GOP has not done a very good job at reaching out to Asian Americans either. Despite the fact that APIA's are the fastest growing minority in the United States, our voice is still relatively ignored in the immigration reform.
This is part of why we need to organize more, get more active and raise our voices as a community. And waiting til now is total vote pandering. but then again, watch my surprise…. :-|

Miss Fortune
Talk13this wiki
For the character, see Miss Fortune (character). |
Miss Fortune | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Just when your enemies think they have the upper hand, Miss Fortune appears to turn their world upside down. Appearing only in V.A.T.S., she has the ability to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
"— in-game description, Fallout: New VegasMiss Fortune is a perk in Fallout: New Vegas.
With this perk, Miss Fortune will appear 10% of the time in V.A.T.S. to attack enemies. To trigger an appearance, the player must complete a series of attacks in V.A.T.S. without killing their opponent.
Unlike the Mysterious Stranger, Miss Fortune's attacks deal low damage to an area, aiming to cripple and knockdown enemies rather than kill them outright.
Miss Fortune's gun triggers the game to create a "fortune" percentage for your target.
If their fortune is less than 35:
- They're knocked down for 10 seconds.
- Any of the following will detonate if they're in the inventory and are at least 1 game unit further away from the player character than the max splash damage range, with an appropriate explosion:
- Incendiary grenade; creates a 40mm incendiary explosion.
- Frag grenade, dynamite, or bottlecap mine; creates a 40mm explosion.
- Plasma grenades or mines; creates a plasma grenade explosion.
- Pulse grenades or mines; creates a pulse grenade explosion.
If their fortune is between 35 and 65:
- Any of the grenades explosives before will detonate, as well as:
- Flamer, incinerator, or heavy incinerator; creates a 40mm incendiary explosion.
- Grenade launcher, grenade rifle, grenade machinegun, missile launcher, or Securitron missile launcher; creates a 40mm explosion.
- Recharger pistol, recharger rifle, plasma pistol, plasma rifle, multiplas rifle, plasma caster, or Plasma Defender; creates a plasma grenade explosion.
- Pulse gun; creates both a plasma and a pulse grenade explosion.
- If any of these detonate, the weapon will be broken and the NPC's right arm will be crippled. If none of the weapons are present, a "cripples" percentage is set instead:
- Less than 10 cripples the head.
- 10 - 25 cripples the left arm.
- 25 - 40 cripples the right arm.
- 40 - 55 cripples the left leg.
- 55 - 70 cripples the right leg.
- Above 70 cripples the torso.
- If all limbs are crippled beforehand, the target is paralyzed.
If their fortune is above 65, only the limb crippling is applied. Remember, this is all determined per shot, and Miss Fortune will more than likely empty her revolver for all 6 shots in a VATS attack!
- The Mysterious Stranger perk is functionally similar.
- Both the Miss Fortune and Mysterious Stranger perks can be chosen by the player, but they cannot appear together in the same V.A.T.S. sequence as they share the same trigger.
- It is possible to get a challenge complete, Miss Fortunate Son (or Daughter), where the Mysterious Stranger and Miss Fortune appear a certain amount of times, increasing the probability for them to appear in combat much more often.
Sometimes when she appears, your AP Sequence will continue even after delivering your attack, leaving you unable to defend yourself. [verified]

text: Bout's situation has created political tension for Thailand. Russia has shown strong support for Bout, claiming that he is an innocent businessman, while the US is seeking to prosecute him for supporting terrorism. Last week, Thai Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva [official website, in Thai; BBC profile] said that, although the case must work its way through the court system, he will make the final decision [AP report] as to whether Bout will be extradited to the US. The August appeals court decision overturned a 2009 decision by the Bangkok Criminal Court, refusing to extradite [JURIST report] Bout on the basis that the accusations made by the US were not cognizable under Thai law. The appeals court ruled that the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) [GlobalSecurity backgrounder], the group Bout is accused of supporting, is a cognizable terrorist group [Guardian report] under Thai law and that Thailand is obligated to honor its extradition treaties with the US. Lawyers for Bout argued that his safety would be in jeopardy in the US and that he would be unable to receive a fair trial. If convicted in a US court, Bout could be sentenced to life in prison.

Cystocele (Fallen Bladder) (cont.)In this ArticleWhat causes a cystocele?
A cystocele may result from muscle straining while giving birth. Other kinds of How is a cystocele diagnosed?A doctor may be able to diagnose a grade 2 or grade 3 cystocele from a description of symptoms and from physical examination of the vagina because the fallen part of the bladder will be visible. A voiding cystourethrogram is a test that involves taking x-rays of the bladder during urination. This x-ray shows the shape of the bladder and lets the doctor see any problems that might block the normal flow of urine. Other tests may be needed to find or rule out problems in other parts of the urinary system. How is a cystocele treated?
Comment on this
Treatment options range from no treatment for a mild cystocele to surgery for a serious cystocele. If a cystocele is not bothersome, the doctor may only recommend avoiding heavy lifting or straining that could cause the cystocele to worsen. If symptoms are moderately bothersome, the doctor may recommend a Large cystoceles may require surgery to move and keep the bladder in a more normal position. This operation may be performed by a gynecologist, a urologist, or a urogynecologist. The most common procedure for cystocele repair is for the surgeon to make an incision in the wall of the vagina and repair the area to tighten the layers of tissue that separate the organs, creating more support for the bladder. The patient may stay in the hospital for several days and take 4 to 6 weeks to recover fully. Patient CommentsViewers share their comments

14 Things That Were True The Last Time The Chicago Blackhawks Lost A Hockey Game
A lot has changed in the 318 days since Chicago's last loss
The Blackhawks defeated the Wild last night to improve to 20-0-3. The last time Chicago's hockey team knew what it felt like to lose a game in regulation was Apr. 23, 2012, when it suffered a season-ending defeat to the Coyotes in the Western Conference quarterfinals.
That was 318 days ago.
Lots of things have changed since then. Here are 14 of them.
1. No one knew what "Gangnam Style" was.
That's because the viral hit was still nearly three months away from being released.
2. Snoop Dogg was still Snoop Dogg.
The one-time rapper didn't become Snoop Lion until the end of July.
3. The Dallas Mavericks (currently 26-33) were the reigning NBA champions …
Remember that?
4. … and LeBron was still a serial choker.
Remember that?
5. The only Hurricane Sandy anyone knew came in the last 10 minutes of Grease.
One was electrifying; the other not so much.
6. Twinkies still existed.
Now you can only find them on eBay.
7. Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes were still married.
TomKat called it quits in June after six years.
8. The current Heisman Trophy holder was more than four months away from playing his first college football game.
Now Johnny Football is a household name.
9. Desperate Housewives was still on the air.
The last episode of the long-running ABC dramedy aired in May.
10. "47 percent" recalled Chris Dudley's career free-throw percentage (give or take) and not a Mitt Romney misstep.
The presidential candidate's infamous remark, which was tabbed as the year's best quote on Yale University's annual list, made national headlines in September.
11. Andy Roddick was still an active pro tennis player.
He announced his retirement in September after 13 years on tour.
12. Andy Samberg was still an active Saturday Night Live cast member.
He bid farewell in May after seven years on the NBC show.
13. Augusta National had no female members.
The exclusive club finally admitted two women to its membership roll in August.
14. There was a pope.
The February resignation of Benedict XVI has left the Catholic Church without a pontiff for the first time in nearly a decade.

March 11, 2014
Posted Monday, July 30, 2012 --- 5:20 p.m.
MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- Mercedes Benz has paid the $618,000 the Wisconsin Supreme Court says it owed in a lemon law case after the victorious attorney sought garnishment of earnings from six Mercedes Benz dealers in the state.
Attorney Vince Megna says the payment from Mercedes Benz was hand-delivered on Monday. That was 11 days after Megna filed the garnishment action in court because the car company had not yet paid the court-ordered judgment in May.
The ruling grew out of a 2005 case involving a Waukesha businessman who bought a defective $56,000 Mercedes-Benz, but the company argued it wasn't liable because the owner didn't provide information needed to grant a refund.
The Supreme Court disagreed and ordered the payment.
Megna says additional unpaid attorneys' fees will likely eclipse $235,000.

In St. Louis, MO
St. Louis, Mo., June 1, 2012 – The Better Business Bureau (BBB) is warning consumers about a series of ads for an "amazing" TV antenna that allows viewers to "get rid of cable and satellite bills." The company running the ads is part of Ohio-based Arthur Middleton Capital Holdings, whose newspaper and magazine advertorials have come under increasing BBB criticism.The BBB warns that the full-page Clear-Cast antenna ads – which have run locally in recent weeks in the Parade magazine insert of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch and in the main section of the Belleville News-Democrat – have the capacity to mislead the public. Earlier this month, the BBB in Canton, Ohio, issued a news alert on the advertising, saying concerns were serious enough to warrant an "F" grade by the BBB, the lowest grade possible."After testing the product, the BBB found it did not perform as it is claimed in the ad," the Canton, Ohio, BBB concluded. "Additionally, BBB inquiries indicate that because the headline claims that consumers can eliminate cable or satellite bills, consumers are under the impression they will receive the same type of channeling as with their current provider, which the BBB found is not the case. Consumers continue to contact the BBB and state they are also confused as to what they are actually getting."Clear-Cast antennas are manufactured by Brilliant Built Technologies, a subsidiary of Universal Media Syndicate, Inc., of Canton. Universal Media Syndicate is a part of Arthur Middleton Capital Holdings, a company that has marketed products ranging from portable electric heaters to dietary aids to uncut sheets of U.S. $1 and $2 bills.Michelle Corey, BBB president and CEO, said the Clear-Cast ads are only the latest of Arthur Middleton marketing campaigns that have raised BBB concerns."Despite several meetings between the BBB and Arthur Middleton officials, this company apparently feels that it is necessary to stretch the limits of ethical advertising in order to sell its products," Corey said.

Nearly a year later, the BBB issued an alert noting "significant and ongoing concerns" over advertisements run in the St. Louis area and elsewhere by Arthur Middleton businesses. The most recent Clear-Cast ad shows a photo of workers boxing antennas for shipment. "Consumers dump cable and satellite for invention that pulls in free TV with no bills," says the ad. The ad says that the invention is a "razor-thin indoor digital HDTV antenna that delivers picture-perfect reception without a cable or Internet connection, without a satellite dish and without any monthly bills. Just plug it in to your TV and pull in up to 953 free TV shows with crystal clear digital picture and no monthly bills ever."The antennas cost $47 each, plus postage. The BBB says its research found that 90 percent of callers surveyed believed the company was offering 953 channels, not 953 shows as was stated in the ad. BBB concerns included the use of the word "free" in its ads, the company's claims of advanced technology and claims comparing its antennas to cable or satellite TV. Even though the ads include a statement that the antennas will not receive cable or satellite, the BBB feels these types of ads are inherently misleading. When considering using TV antennas versus cable or satellite TV, the BBB recommends the following:
