Higher Food Prices Start to Pinch Consumers
As Grocers, Eateries Pass On Increases, People Are Shopping More Carefully, Cutting Back
With the rising cost of milk, eggs, meat and produce contributing to the biggest jump in food prices in 17 years, consumers are starting to feel the pinch.
Some shoppers, already dealing with falling home values and rising fuel costs, are finding creative ways to save, opting for cheaper ingredients and private-label goods and leaning more heavily on discount grocers. And restaurant diners, who have been eating out less frequently, will likely face even higher prices on menus.
For Christmas dinner, Karen Littleton, a 54-year-old freelance writer in San Antonio, says she bought a huge salmon fillet at discount retailer Costco Wholesale Corp. COST -0.42 % rather than an "exquisite fish," such as Chilean sea bass, from a local grocery store.
She says she loves to prepare gourmet dishes, but "I'm using cheaper foods and having to be more imaginative with how I put them together. ... I used to use eight or 10 ingredients in just a sauce, but those days are over."
Rising Food Prices
Have you noticed higher prices at the supermarket? What products in particular have caught your eye? Share your thoughts in an online forum.
Many of the price increases seem small on a per-item basis. The average retail price of a dozen eggs went up 38% to $1.86 in November from a year earlier; a gallon of milk rose 30% to $3.90; and whole-wheat bread rose 12% to $1.78 per pound, meaning a 24-ounce loaf of bread now costs, on average, $2.67. But the costs can add up on a weekly grocery bill. Overall, food prices as measured by the consumer price index rose at a 5.3% seasonally adjusted annual rate through November, compared with a 2.4% rise for all of 2006. That is the biggest increase since 1990.
Food prices are rising for a number of reasons. A growing middle class in Latin America and Asia can afford more meat and milk, which has driven up demand for grain to feed cattle and hogs. A drought in Australia in 2006 reduced the supply of milk available to Asia, further pushing up the cost. Rising global demand for U.S. wheat and poor harvests in other wheat-producing countries caused wheat prices to soar to record levels last year.
Demand for grain-derived ethanol, driven by government incentives, has helped push up corn and soybean prices, which in turn have raised the cost of many products derived from those crops, such as oils and high-fructose corn syrup, a sweetener used in everything from soft drinks to ketchup. To top it off, rising fuel costs are making it more expensive to transport food from the producers to stores and restaurants.
'Everything's Going Up'
"Between weather conditions, fuel charges and labor, everything's going up," says Sandy Levine, vice president of Carnegie Deli in New York, which will be raising prices on several menu items this year. A slice of cheesecake will cost $8.50, up from $8, and coleslaw will cost $4.50 instead of $4. The deli processes its own meat, but with produce, Mr. Levine says, "I can't buy direct. It has to be trucked across the country from California or Florida."
For the past several months, food manufacturers including General Mills Inc. GIS 0.00 % of Minneapolis and Sara Lee Corp. of Downers Grove, Ill., have been passing along their higher costs to retailers, which in turn have been passing them along to consumers. In addition to basics like bread, cereal, cheese and eggs, nonessentials such as chewing gum, chocolate and ice cream also have become more expensive.
Last week, an 18-ounce box of Kellogg's Corn Flakes cost $4.29 at an Albertsons in Lake Havasu City, Ariz. The same box at a nearby Safeway cost $3.79, while it cost $3.43 at a nearby Smith's, a chain owned by Kroger Co. KR 0.34 % Each store offered an in-house brand, which varied in price across the three stores from $1.89 to $2.79. Other private-label goods were priced at a significant discount. A 7.25-ounce box of Kraft Macaroni and Cheese Premium Thick 'n Creamy cost $1.69 at Smith's, while the store-brand competitor made by Kroger cost 49 cents.
Phyllis Hoag, an interior-design consultant shopping last week at a Smith's in Lake Havasu City, said she now plans many of her family's meals around what's on sale. After reviewing the weekly specials, she scooped up six T-bone steaks for $3.99 a pound. "Usually they're $9.99," Ms. Hoag, 47, said as she pushed her cart down the pasta aisle. "I just try to shop with ads and stock my cupboards with dry goods that are on really good deals."
Passing Along Increases
Some large conventional supermarket chains such as Kroger and Safeway Inc., which have passed along most of the price increases in food products, say they haven't felt a negative impact on their sales. "In our view, periods of modest inflation [are] a positive for our business, because inflation tends to improve sales," Kroger CEO David Dillon told analysts in December.
And not all food items have gone up in price: The average price of red delicious apples remained flat, as did the price of malt beverages. But food analysts are predicting that the prices of most food products are likely to continue to rise throughout 2008.
Carol Skusek, a mother of two teenage boys in Temecula, Calif., says she is buying cheaper cuts of meat to pare her grocery bill. "If I buy a chuck roast instead of a rump roast and just cook it longer in some sort of broth, it's just as tender," says Ms. Skusek, 47. She shops at a nearby Stater Bros. grocery store just before it closes at 11 p.m., when butchers often slash the price of meat that is near its sell-by date rather than throw it away. "I recently got hamburger for 99 cents a pound, and it's normally over $3 a pound," she said. She is also shopping more at a discount grocer, WinCo Foods.
That shift appears to be helping Wal-Mart Stores Inc., WMT -0.14 % which recently said its rate of food inflation is lower than that of the rest of the grocery industry. During an earnings conference call in November, Eduardo Castro-Wright, chief executive of Wal-Mart's U.S. business, told investors: "Our grocery business, including pharmacy, was strong throughout the quarter, and Supercenter food sales grew by more than 13%."
Restaurants have had a hard time passing along price increases because consumers already had cut back on dining out due to rising gasoline prices and declining home values.
Burger King Corp. raised its prices 1% in July. McDonald's Corp. MCD -0.44 % said in October it raised prices by about 3.5% during the previous year and will continue to adjust for higher dairy and chicken costs. Some McDonald's franchisees have raised prices of items on the company's Dollar Menu above the $1 mark. At one Chicago restaurant, for example, that menu has been renamed "Dollar Menu & More," and includes a $1.29 double cheeseburger and $1.49 chicken snack wrap.
Angel Crawford, a 49-year-old Chicago resident, says she visits McDonald's every day for breakfast and other meals but has been staying away from the higher-priced items on the Dollar Menu & More section. "I don't buy them because they went up," she says.
$12.99 for Chicken Wings
Wing Zone Franchise Corp., a chain of 103 restaurants in the Southeast, instituted an 8% price increase in August and will try not to raise prices again during the first six months of 2008. "There isn't a single product in our restaurant that hasn't gone up in cost from the vendor," says Wing Zone founder and CEO Matt Friedman.
Now, an order of 20 chicken wings costs $12.99 instead of $11.99 -- and that has cost Mr. Friedman some customers. Between September and December, Wing Zone saw its customer count go down by 2% to 3%.

Quickly and easily add icons to your custom post types. Built for the new dashboard design that should come out with 3.7.
Does the pushpin not describe your custom post type? Here are 361 more icons to choose from. Icons are the GPL-compatible Font Awesome Icons. This is built for the new admin design that should debut with 3.7 (you can use the MP6 Plugin until then).
This is the same icon features that comes with SuperCPT 0.2+, but pulled out of the plugin for those crazy birds who don't use it.
This adds a function you can use,
pti_set_post_type_icon( $post_type, $icon ); to set your post type's icon. For instance,
pti_set_post_type_icon( 'event', 'calendar' );. You can also set the global variable $pti_icons as an array of post type => icon names. Using the global variable is safer, since it doesn't rely on a function (you could of course call
if ( function_exists( 'pti_set_post_type_icons' ) ) to be equally safe using the function).

I can only imagine how unsettling it must have been for you Kazza. To have the guide imply worry, plus having your DS with you... eeesh, my heart goes out to you for those hours you must have been worried.
You know, it's really hard to decide where to travel anymore, isn't it? Herself and I have been dreaming of a safari trip for years. We thought Tanzania would be nice. When we got truly serious, Tanzania (and Kenya, our other thought) both erupted.
Some holidays are age driven. I don't think either of us want to be much older and attempt to do a safari holiday!
I'll bet your DH was beyond relieved to have you both home safe and sound!!!
Now, about that rain! I hope it isn't causing problems.
My DH had no idea - he doesn't turn the TV on when aren't there and because it was a holiday weekend there were no newspapers.Originally Posted by Tink, post: 123906
I rang him when we got to Sydney and he was like "what trouble?" Honestly!

We're hanging on tight, Deb!
Kazza! That is sort of funny, and kind of scary! I guess it's best to be oblivious to the potential for worry, eh? (I'm too much of a worrier to be really comfortable with that statement)!
Oh my gosh. I am so pleased you are home safe and sound. Hope you managed to have a super time.

Woman celebrates 102nd birthday
Anna P. Maslowski, a guest at North Penn Manor in Wilkes-Barre, celebrated her 102nd birthday Wednesday.
She was born in Plymouth, the third of 10 children of Anthony and Anna Valaica, immigrants from Lithuania. Her father was killed in a mining accident when Anna was 11, and her mother supported the family by working as a housekeeper in a boarding home.
Anna attended Plymouth schools and was employed by Heavenly Shoe Co. for 13 years and Atwater Silk Mill for two years. She is a member of St. Robert Bellarmine Parish.
After losing her home in the flood of 1936, Anna resided on Orchard Street, Plymouth, where she lived independently for 70 years until she was almost 100. She then moved to North Penn Manor, Wilkes-Barre, where she holds the distinction of being the first resident to turn 100.
Anna has three children: Anthony Maslowski, Theresa Piazza and Rosaline O'Boyle. She has seven grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren.
Anna enjoys reading the daily newspapers, crocheting and helping her roommates.
"She welcomes everyone with a warm smile that lights up the room and has a genuine interest in staff, residents and visitors," said Doreen Rakowski, activity director. "Anna believes the 'good old days' were a better time. She never owned a dryer and loves the smell of clothes that were hung outside on the clothesline," Rakowski said.
Staff said Anna's secret to good health is a bowl of oatmeal and prunes every day.

Lithos Bar and Restaurant at Oroklini: "British Adore it for the Food and the Daily Events" Top 5 Page for this destination Larnaca Nightlife Tip by greekcypriot
Larnaca Nightlife: 7 reviews and 17 photos
I had a nice outing for dinner at the Lithos bar in Oroklini with friends while in Larnaca and I high recommend it. Due to renovations the Lithos bar and Restaurant is having its daily events in the premises of the Antonis G Hotel next to the swimming pool and bar area these days since the weather is so beautiful on the island. Until the Lithos is fully renovated every activity will be taken at the hotel next door which belongs to the same family.
I was amazed with the crowds of people gathered who are regular customers as the events are on a daily basis. Quiz nights take place every Tuesday. The majority of people coming here are British coming not only from Oroklini but from the whole district of Larnaca as well. The restaurant offers top class entertainment. I had the chance to talk to several guests as I love hearing comments and sharing tips, and everyone spoke highly of not only the people here, the staff, the professional service and real huge portions of its tasty cuisine. I heard not a single bad comment.
There is live music every Friday and Saturday plus music quiz on these days. Quests can win different gifts and these can either be money or various bottles of wine or other spirits. Five different TVs in the restaurant show everything that is going on about sports. English people are great fans of sports so this is the perfect spot to watch a match on huge screens with the company of friends and a glass of beer.
Prices are amazing, and quality the best. The cost of a pint of draft beer is just 2 euro, but I was amazed with the huge portion of ribs which cost 9.50 euro. The cuisine is local and very tasty. The Chicken Kebab costs 7.50, Tuna salad 6.50, Mousaka here costs 8 euro, Afelia 8.50 and a dish of Stifado 9.50 euro.
It is an amazing spot to be and I urge more British and not only to include it in their must visit hot spots in Larnaca! I consider it one of the top amusing Bar Restaurants in the whole district of Larnaca. What more can one expect if he finds everything here - good food, open hearted and friendly people, plus affordable very cheap dishes that don't lose the high quality and freshness.
I would certainly visit it again when in Larnaca when Lithos is fully renovated!

Stuart Mole, Parliamentary Candidate
East Devon Liberal Democrats
Commenting on the Queen's Speech, Leader of the Liberal Democrats Tim Farron said:
"Only one year in and this Conservative majority is running out of steam.
"30 announcements, but 28 have been made before. Weekend prisoners, announced by a weakened Government.
"The Queen's Speech is a stop-gap to give the warring factions of the Tory party a couple of day's respite from the referendum. It does nothing to address the key issues at stake.
"This country's challenges on education, housing, investment, skills, and the environment are either ignored, or offered nothing more than empty rhetoric.
"The Conservatives are continuing their dogmatic assault on civil liberties with the ongoing threat of the snooper's charter and an obsession to tear up the human rights act. We will fight them every step of the way.
"There are enough re-runs on BBC without having to get the Queen to do her own."
Paying tribute to David Rendel, former Liberal Democrat MP for Newbury who passed away last night, Liberal Democrat leader Tim Farron said:
"I am hugely saddened by the loss of David Rendel. He was a committed, selfless individual who I will remember particularly for his unyielding campaigning over so many years. I will miss him.
So much of the debate around Europe has been about financial projections, trading complex cost benefit analyses about what will happen if we stay or leave. And fascinating though that all is, my hunch is that it might not, on its own, clinch the right result.
Because there is much more to this Referendum than the economy, crucial though that is.
Read Tim Farron's speech on June 11, 2016 on why he's voting to remain on June 23rd
Commenting ahead of the publication of reformed EU refugee laws, Liberal Democrat leader Tim Farron said
"Any proposals to strengthen Dublin regulations are welcome but do not alone do enough to confront the humanitarian crisis in Europe.
"It will take time to make Dublin more effective and efficient and this is something we simply don't have. That is why the PM must act now and offer safety to 3,000 vulnerable refugee children who are unaccompanied in Europe. Many Conservative MPs are u-turning on their vote against this last week, and it is time for the PM to join them."
Commenting on reports that new London Mayor Sadiq Khan is expected to announce the introduction of a 'one hour bus ticket' , Liberal Democrat London Assembly Member Caroline Pidgeon said:
"The Liberal Democrats have been campaigning for a One Hour Bus Ticket for the best part of a decade in London. I welcome our policy being adopted by London's new mayor and hope that he will go further and also implement our policy for half price travel for journeys on the transport network before 7.30am."
Today I want to talk about Britain's two most important relationships: with our neighbours in Europe; and our cousins in the United States.
As those descriptions suggest, the two relationships are very different. They are born of different circumstances and have been tested by different pressures. They provoke different emotions in the minds of British citizens. But they are intimately linked.
Ahead of the key vote on Monday on whether the UK should offer sanctuary to 3,000 child refugees, Liberal Democrat leader Tim Farron has written to every MP calling on them to put party politics aside and 'stand up for humanity'.
The Government last week tried to buy off MPs with a proposal to take up to 3,000 additional people including children from Syria and North Africa over four years, but this will not help one of the thousands of children in Europe today.
Commenting on Treasury analysis, which shows that Brexit would cost British households up to £4,300, Leader of the Liberal Democrats Tim Farron said:
"The sheer volume of serious and sobering evidence against turning our backs on Europe is overwhelming. The Treasury assessment today, showing a £4,300 cost to families, gives another stark warning about the impact on every household in Britain.
The Government has agreed a Liberal Democrat amendment to the Housing and Planning Bill, which protects vulnerable tenants from being wrongly evicted.
Under the Housing & Planning Bill, landlords get faster access to a property if they believe the tenant has abandoned it.
The successful amendment requires a landlord to get in touch with a third party such as a charity, local authority or individual who has helped to pay the tenant's deposit. If the landlord gets a response that the tenant has not abandoned the property they can't change the locks and reclaim it.

Archer (アーチャー, Āchā?) is the Archer-class Servant of Tiné Chelc in the False Holy Grail War of Fate/strange fake.
- Main article: History
Archer's True Name is Gilgamesh, the King of Heroes who ruled Uruk and befriended Enkidu. During life, he had a key to the gates of his vault crafted, but he did not utilize it. The key was exceedingly ornate, and about the length and weight of a small survival knife. The jewels ornamented on the key were extremely valuable, both magically and monetarily. The key was filled with some magical energy of unknown origin.[1] Viewing it as a trifle because there were none who would lay a hand upon his treasures, he threw it away.[2] It eventually found its way into the hands of his summoner's ancestor, and while the key was filled with magical energy, he never found the vault. It stayed within his family until Archer's summoner used it to summon him instead of the first skin shed by a snake.
Normally, being summoned in an era where his property was sullied by the consumption society of the early 2000s, Gilgamesh would usually be in a worse mood overall. When learning that is best friend, Enkidu, was summoned did his personality become more stable.
Fate/strange fakeEdit
Archer is summoned by a magus wishing to restore his family's honor, but he is killed by another magus, Tiné Chelc, moments after the summoning is complete and becomes her Servant. After she introduced herself, Tiné then took Archer to meet the many people who wish to serve their king. Archer declared to Tiné that he was initially not interested in participating the War, and he would leisurely wait until a worthy opponent shows up, where he then took out the Potion of youth with the intentions of drinking it. However, as Archer learns that his best friend, Enkidu, was also summoned did he change his mind. After declaring to Tiné that she should rejoice in how she will witness her king fight with all his might, he then gives Tiné the Potion of youth where he declares he will no longer need it.
Gilgamesh has access to the Gate of Babylon and Ea. Orlando Reeve is most worried about his strength, and he plans on using his force to somehow overpower him before he can retaliate. While he is definitely the strongest Servant within the Holy Grail War, it is noted that the Player's ability to summon five Servants at once with all of his Command Spells may be too much for even the King of Heroes.

Here well take a look at how you can manage your email better by having incoming mail automatically moved into separate folders.If you subscribe to daily email news letters they can quickly fill up an inbox. You might want to save them to read or reference at a later time. Keeping these emails in specific folders is a good way to keep organized.
If you get a lot of email a day, this can save a lot of time rather than having to spend an hour once a week moving emails from the Inbox to your categorized folders. Email rules may seem complicated and it can be if you want to do some very sophicated things, but if you simply want to move Johns emails to the John folder automatically, then its a piece of cake.

Sadly, there has never been a war in which there have not been civilian casualties on both sides. When a government, Hamas, uses its own people as human shields to protect instruments of war, it renounces its humanity.
RELATED: Hamas greatest threat to Palestinian civilians
The recently discovered sophisticated network of tunnels was built over a long time. It says to the state of Israel you are illegitimate, have no right to exist and we will never negotiate honestly with you. In such circumstance, without unconditional surrender and national suicide, how can Israel find peace?
Louisville 40207 –
Assuming for the sake of argument that Hamas shoots rockets from U.N. schools (a U.N. official at the latest Gaza school slaughter denied this), in the movies the good guy never shoots the "human shield" to get to the bad guy. Israel urges civilians to flee their homes, seek shelter, or get killed. Do the rabbis who wrote the recent letter have any suggestions other than schools or hospitals? Israel is "investigating" the latest incident. Can't wait to read that report.

I first saw "Wrigley" on the GPSPCA website after searching for months for a small apartment dog. He was a 2.5-year-old non-neutered stray, skinny and not too eager to meet me and our family dog. Even after our first meeting, he was nonplussed to greet our family's Jackrat (Jack Russell/Rat Terrier mix), Daisy. I still knew he was for me. I picked him up the next day, and it has been true love ever since. I changed his name to Todd, and Todd and Daisy have become best friends! Always adopt! They are the best dogs and so grateful to have a family.

A short video of Axl and Stan for our family and friends in Europe who don't see them every day. Axl started learning English 6 months ago when he started pre-school. It's fascinating to see how fast his English gets better. The video is shot with the Panasonic GF-1 and the Lumix 20mm f/1.7 lens that I got for Christmas two years ago.

AP source: Holliday, Cards agree to $120M deal
ST. LOUIS The St. Louis Cardinals persuaded another star player to stick around. This time it was really expensive and took a little longer than anticipated.
Matt Holliday agreed Tuesday to a $120 million, seven-year contract that is baseball's richest deal of the offseason and the biggest in franchise history. Just like Mark McGwire, Jim Edmonds and Scott Rolen before him, the power-hitting outfielder arrived in a trade and decided St. Louis was the best place for him.
The Cardinals announced Tuesday they had agreed with Holliday on a multiyear contract subject to a physical. General manager John Mozeliak said in a text message to The Associated Press that he planned to address the media Thursday once Holliday passes the physical.
His agreement includes $119 million guaranteed over seven seasons plus a $17 million vesting option for 2017 with a $1 million buyout, a person familiar with the deal told the AP. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the team didn't reveal the length of the contract or financial details.
Holliday, who had been the biggest prize in free agency this winter, confirmed he was returning in an interview on ESPN Radio.
"I'm going back to the Cardinals," he said. "I'm excited about it."
St. Louis acquired Holliday from Oakland in July and he helped lead the Cardinals to their first NL Central title since 2006. They sent several top prospects to the Athletics and justified that expense by retaining a player who hit .353 with 13 homers and 55 RBIs in 63 games for St. Louis, which took control of the division race with a 32-11 record after the trade.
"I felt like I wanted to kind of see what's out there and kind of look around and maybe see what other teams are all about," said Holliday, an Oklahoma native. "At the end of the day, playing in St. Louis and playing with the guys I made friends with became something that was very appealing to me."
A three-time All-Star, Holliday was a perfect fit batting cleanup behind star slugger Albert Pujols, though he was the goat in a first-round playoff sweep by the Los Angeles Dodgers after dropping a sinking liner to left field that would have been the final out of Game 2.
Holliday, who turns 30 on Jan. 15, batted .313 overall with 24 homers and 109 RBIs, his fifth .300 season and third 100-RBI year.
"Obviously, with Albert Pujols on the team you have a great opportunity to have a great team," Holliday told ESPN. "Albert is the best player in the history of baseball in my mind. Hopefully between the two of us we can help do our part to win a World Series."
Cardinals pitcher Kyle Lohse said he got the news in text messages between the teammates' wives. Holliday and Lohse have the same agent, Scott Boras.
"That's pretty good, pretty exciting," Lohse told the AP in a telephone interview. "I've been around long enough not to pay too much attention until something gets done, but I know he liked it here and I'm sure he's really happy things worked out."
Holliday's agreement is much bigger than the other two big free-agent deals of the offseason: pitcher John Lackey's $82.5 million, five-year contract with Boston and outfielder Jason Bay's $66 million, four-year contract with the New York Mets, which was finalized earlier Tuesday.
"When you're a little kid growing up hoping to be a professional baseball player and hoping to play in the major leagues, I don't think you ever think about the money," Holliday said. "Now that you look at it, it's a little overwhelming."

If you have the authority to do something, you have the right or power to do it. You are the big cheese. Or, if you know more about a topic than most, you are an authority on that topic.
Giving someone authority grants them the power to make important decisions or have accepted opinions. When you leave your kids with a babysitter, you give her the authority to put them to bed at 7 p.m., no matter how much they insist you let them stay up until midnight. You'll feel more confident leaving the babysitter in charge of bedtime decisions if she's written two books on the subject and is an authority, or renowned expert, on children's sleep habits. Being an authority on children's sleep habits helps your babysitter enforce that 7 p.m. bedtime, but it may not convince the kids.

EM60 Flick is a rechargeable power unit that revolutionizes electrosex play with motion-activated electrical currents and a whopping 24 different intensity levels. Plus, unlike many e-stim toys it boasts 7 patterns and comes with 3 plug in accessories.
Only: $272.95
Product Description
EM60 Flick is a rechargeable power unit that revolutionizes electrosex play with motion-activated electrical currents and a whopping 24 different intensity levels. Plus, unlike many e-stim toys it boasts 7 patterns and comes with 3 plug in accessories.
If you're new to electro-stimulation and want to sample all of the delights it has to offer, this multipack has everything you need to enjoy varied solo or shared play. Delight in the thrill of internal and external tingles, pulsations and tickles with the 3 included accessories.
For direct boner buzzing, slip both adjustable cock loops around your or your partners penis (one at the base and one just under the glans) for full-length tingly bliss. Fancy internal pleasure? Swap the cock rings for the Aura probe and enjoy vaginal or anal stimulation.
Probably one of the simplest yet most versatile accessories are the adhesive pads. For contactless spanking, stick both pads on your partner's behind and plug them into the Flick control unit. Set the maximum intensity to one that suits your lover (so you don't accidentally zap them too hard) and begin flicking your wrist. Depending on how hard and fast you flick will determine the intensity of 'impact'. For shared pleasure, wear one pad each (below the waist) and enjoy shared tingles every time (and everywhere) you touch. Cool huh?
Basic in principle, electrosex toys use the same tech as TENS machines (yep, the ones designed for pain relief), zapping your nerve endings with mild (or intense depending on how you like it) electrical currents. This direct stimulation is far more effective than vibrations and during internal play can even strengthen your kegel muscles.
Explore a full 24 intensity settings that put you in complete control. Whether you like barely-there tickles or hair-raising zaps, this kit does it all. Plus it features 1 constant and 7 patterned functions, each completely customizable, for seriously exciting play.
Kit includes: ElectraStim gift box, EM60 Rechargeable ElectraStim Flick Dual Channel Power Unit, 2 Connecting cables (each with 2 x 2mm connector pins), USB recharging cable, 4 Uni-Polar ElectraPads, 2 Uni-Polar ElectraLoop cock rings, 1 Silicone Noir Aura Multi Probe, 1 x 60ml Tube of Conductive Gel, 1 Sample of water-based lube, 1 Storage bag, 1 Instructional booklet, 1 x 3 year extended warranty
Key Features:
- Full electra-stim kit with 3 attachments exhilarating erotic pleasure

- Twin adjustable cock loops offer pin-point penis arousal
- Adhesive pads are perfect for shared fun and contactless spanking

Hands-free stimulation
Reviewed: May 2, 2016 by Barney50
I have been curious about electro toys for a while, and my girlfriend and I decided we would try it.
They are not cheap, so was a bit hesitant about how good it would be for the price.
I wasn't disappointed. We couldn't wait to try it when it arrived.
This is amazing the loops and pads are easy to attach, and the sensations are mind-blowing.
There are loads of different speeds and pulses to completely blow you away. My girlfriend got very turned on watching me use it on myself. She ended up masturbating herself while I watched.
We both came, and mine was hands-free and out of this world.
We have both used the plug too. I've used it for anal stimulation, while my GF as given me a BJ. If you can afford this toy then please buy one, you won't be sorry.

- The different speeds and sensations. Both the pads and loops feel amazing. Easily charges up.
- Cons
- Had to replace the loops as they tore, but Lovehoney replaced them free.
- Bottom line
- 10 out of 10 unless they can make something better.

Just Buy It, You Won't Regret it
Reviewed: April 28, 2016 by MrGwelshy, a Straight Single Male
The quality of the product is very high and it's very durable, very easy to use, and very easy to setup, easy to clean. Great for solo play and couples play. I've had more fun with this than any other sex toy. Many accessories you can buy to go with this toy. It's the perfect toy to travel with on your holidays.
The loops/ pads/ plug are really soft and comfortable to wear and to insert (plug). As you turn this up you can feel the tingle sensations or the pulsating throbbing feeling travel through your member (very enjoyable) and through the loops.
The pads tend to stimulate a small area but are just as powerful also to the job very well especially combined with a loop.
The plug is great quality, easy to use, but for me, it did not do much. I much prefer the loops and pads, they are better and more powerful in my opinion.
You do need to play with the power/ pattern settings to find what works best for you. Again, full power can be very intense and buzzing. But it can be very painful, so build up to the stronger levels/ patterns! And it can hurt after the big O so just knock the toy off soon as you can!
Great toy, would recommend!
- Pros
- Power and the patterns easy to use and the mind-blowing orgasm!
- Cons
- The cost and the plug was not all that good for me anyways.
- Bottom line
- Awesome, mind-blowing, buzzing! Definitely a must-have in any toy collection.

Don't think about it, get it
Reviewed: January 1, 2016 by janar
Looked at getting one of these for a few months before suggesting to my good women, and having finally plucked up the courage, the order arrived with the speed I have come to expect from Lovehoney.
Once everybody else was out the house I ripped open the plain packaging to find a well boxed item. It was like opening a top class phone. Definitely gave the impression of a quality toy. Put it on to charge with the enclosed cable. (This cable is only about 6 inches, so you might want to get a longer one.) This needs to be via a sub-socket on you PC, or a plug with a sub-socket. The socket on the unit itself is a mini USB, which is different to the micro USB found on most modern phones, so couldn't use my phone charger to charge. Luckily we have another phone chargers where the cable to plugs into the plug. Charging took about three hours, and according to the instructions a full charge will last 6 hours.
The kit included a special lube to help conductivity, but is for external use only, although we didn't find we needed it. For internal use, don't use silicone-based lubes, as they insulate, so water-based lubes only. Also came with a good supply of cleaning wipes.
First to be put into use were the loops. These were easily fitted and adjusted, the cable pins from the main unit just slide into the end of each loop. With some trepidation I switched the unit on. At first felt nothing, but once the power was slowly cranked up you could feel the tingle travel between the two loops. You with need to play with the power and pattern settings to find what works for you. Using the controls is easy and intuitive. When you do find the right combination, it is like nothing I have experienced before. It was like being on the point of no return, but being held at that point. My whole groin seemed to twitch. Didn't bring me to orgasm the first time, but has since.
Next up, she wanted to try the plug. Easily set up, the prongs from the main lead fit snugly into the base. This had an effect far better we could have ever hoped for. The tingling and pulsing brought her to orgasm again and again. The plug does slip out slightly with the force of pulsing muscles, but holding it in place was no hardship. I'm told on the pulse setting; it feels like it's actually thrusting in and out. This is defiantly like no other toy we have used.
Similar results were found by using the pads, these are easily applied and removed, although might want to ensure that when use place the pads you avoid hairs, or shave beforehand. The pads can be reused a number of times.
Another option you can try is the plug and a pad together. This also works wonders. Once again with good results. Fitting a pad to each person is also mind-blowing. Wherever you first make contact the other person the area will tingle and throb. Just make sure you are in contact before switching on, or you get a bit of a zap (nothing to bad).
We haven't tried all the combinations you can do with this kit, but the combinations are two pads together, the two loops together, and the plug by itself. The plug with a loop or a pad. A pad and a loop together. And the plug can be used analy as well. When using two items. They can be used on different people so the fun is shared, whereever you touch.
I wasn't sure about buying this kit, let's face it, it's not cheap. But if you think as each accessory as its own toy, its cost seems more acceptable. If you have been thinking about getting one of these, do it. This is not for those quick spontaneous sessions, but taking you time with produce fantastic mind-blowing results. We are hooked. She's already looking at the 7-inch dildo attachment!
This is the longest review I've have written for anything, but this is no ordinary gadget. In case you haven't got the point: best toy ever.
- Pros
- Earth-shattering orgasms.
- Cons
- Cost. Pins slipped out of loops a few times.
- Bottom line
- Should have bought one sooner.

Oklahoma's private prisons operate in secrecy, advocacy group says
Taxpayers fund the operations of private prisons in Oklahoma, just as they do state and federal ones — but they largely don't have access to the same information and records about those private facilities.
According to a report from Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, private prisons avoid greater public scrutiny because they are not subject to the same federal Freedom of Information Act and state open records law requirements as government-run prisons.
"We find ourselves unable to develop any information about these facilities," said Melanie Sloan, executive director of CREW. "They can hide under the rug civil rights violations, how prisoners might be harmed or have died, or employment issues or understaffing. There's sort of nothing they can't hide."

Man Behind Karine A Arms Ship Sentenced to 20 Years in Jail
Court sentenced Fuad Shubaki to a reduced sentence, taking his advanced age into consideration.
The military court sentenced the man behind Palestinian arms ship "Karine A" to 20 years in prison on Sunday, a month after finding him guilty of arms dealing and establishing connections with a foreign agent.
According to Army Radio Fuad Shubaki, who was in charge of finances in the PA at the time, was also convicted of engaging with external hostile elements, supplying 1,000 tons of weapons for millions of dollars, and of funding terror activity carried out by the Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades.
The military prosecutor requested that the 70-year-old Shubaki, a former aide to Palestinian president Yasser Arafat, be sent to 25 years in prison, citing the severity of his crimes.
The court, however, sentenced Shubaki to a reduced sentence, keeping in mind his advanced age and faltering health.
Shubaki was also received a five-year suspended sentence.
The "Karine A" was captured by Israeli naval commandos in the Red Sea in January 3 2002.
The ship was found to be carrying 50 tons of weaponry destined for the Palestinian Authority, including rockets and missiles that could have reached Ben-Gurion International Airport and major Israeli cities from PA territory.
Israeli leaders argued at the time that the smuggling operation had been initiated by the PA and had been carried out with the consent of Yasser Arafat.
Israel also pointed to the involvement of Iran in the supply of the weapons. Both the PA and Iran denied any involvement.

British singer-actress Sofia Hayat says that in her complaint against her 'Bigg Boss Saath 7' co-inmate Armaan Kohli she hadn't leveled any sexual assault charges.
Armaan, who was evicted on Saturday from 'Bigg Boss Saath 7' house, was arrested from the house Dec 17 for allegedly assaulting Sofia, during her stay in the show. After being released on bail, Armaan re-entered the house only to be voted out.
"I filed a complain against Armaan under three sections, but when the police itself saw the footage, they themselves registered the complaint under two more sections," Sofia, who was evicted from 'Bigg Boss' on December 7, told reporters at Hot Yoga Studio launch here.
"Police added sexual assault to the case... I didn't," she added.
During her stay, Sofia had an argument with Armaan who allegedly ended up hitting her with a mop.
But Sofia wonders why police, who saw the footage, released him so quickly.
"I am not happy with Armaan getting bail so quickly. I don't know why he got free so quickly. My lawyer is looking into it. My point is that if police registered the complaint after seeing the footage and the valid proof, then how did they release Armaan so quickly? I just don't understand it," she added.
The 'Bigg Boss' finale is on December 28 and Gauhar Khan, VJ Andy, Tanisha Mukherjee, Sangram Singh and Ajaz Khan are vying for the big prize.
Asked who did she want to win the reality show, Sofia said: "I want Gauahar (to win the show 'Bigg Boss'. I love her."
"She is a good friend of mine. She is very good at heart. I really miss her a lot. I really love her. Please vote for Gauhar. She has to win this show," she added.

At what age is it okay to feed my infant baby cereal? My in-law says 4 weeks, Dr. says 6 months!

My son is 7 weeks old and would always spit back up his formula and he hardly ever spit up my breastmilk, but i started to notice last week that the formula just wasnt filling him up and he was drinkin 6-8oz every 3 hrs or less. and dr told me to keep him sitting upright and burp constantly and keep him upright for at least 30 min for him to keep formula down then he still would spit up so they told me to try a little bit of rice cereal to thicken up the formula but dont give it to him for each feeding bc it could lead to obsesity. so i give him rice cereal in morning bottle and right before bed and he also sleeps through the whole night because he has a full belly. he's doing great to and finally startin to fill out more than what he was on just formula and it helps his bowel movements.posted 10/12/2012 by DreyaBabe
My son is 6 weeks old now. At four weeks the doctor told me that it was okay to introduce rice cereal in his bottles due to laryngomalasia and acid reflux. I put 3 tablespoons in each four ounce bottle..he seems to eat much better..but it doesnt make him full for any longer in my opinion. I just worry about him gaining too much weight. It varies from each doctor what they will tell you..but the WIC office will not give you cereal until six months because thats when they feel they can digest it properly.posted 09/29/2012 by Rasor07
I started feeding my 3 in a half month old daughter rice 3 days after she was born the milk it self was not filling her she also started off with a 3 level nipple all babies are different I just recently started giving her two scoops of rice in her 6 ounce bottles and she's at a level one mam nipple she was kinda backwards at first but even my doctor tells me nobody knows her like I do and if I feel she needs something more or is ready for something I'm her mom and can do itposted 08/31/2012 by Samma.Jamma92
should i start giving my 8 months old son quaker oatmeal cereal ??posted 06/14/2012 by sanah waqas
My son (5 week old) also has reflux and his pediatrician told us to put some rice cereal in his bottle to make it a little thicker and to help coat his tummy. Unfortunately he is also constipated and have heard that rice cereal can cause this so we switched to oatmeal and haven't really had any more problems. Hope this helpsposted 03/07/2012 by dakotahherrington
My daughter is 4 month and for weeks old now.I started feeding her rice cereal twice a day and she seems interesting to introduce the new food and eating with out any trouble. the first day i started with one tea spoon and now, she is eating one table spoon.posted 11/17/2011 by sarahayalew
I personally would not give a baby "rice cereal" if that is what you are asking, until like 4,6 Months. I would not give a newborn baby, even a month or two anything like that. A lot of people including people I know, give their babies regular food all the time at very young ages like 4months on. A lot of people do not realize like the reflux deal, and also what babies can digest / how it works with their body. I gave my son only formula until 5months, then rice cereal also. Then at 6mo he started eating baby food. I took him off formula when he turned 12mo and started with milk. Gladly he transitioned Just fine. I started giving him real food at like 10.5 months and on. Juice probably at 11mo and on. :Dposted 04/11/2011 by addymilla

I gave my daughter a teaspoon of rice cereal 2 days after she was born!posted 02/28/2011 by abaldwin1211
as a side note, 3 of my boys started cereal at 3 months old (which was the recommended age when my first son was born), 1 started at 2 1/2 months, and my baby (now age 7) who was born with acid reflux, started at 1 1/2 months ON DOCTOR'S ADVICE. Personally i feel before 3 months is too soon, but again, TRUST YOUR BABY TO TELL YOU WHAT HE NEEDS.posted 02/28/2011 by Mamaof5boys
