What's not new about it? CPU? Gpu? Camera? Screen? Ram? Battery? Ffc? You're right nm.
u r basing ur comment purely on what the software is and phones looks which is definitely subjective.
28. arsenaljimenez (Posts: 185; Member since: 03 May 2012)
When did I say it wasn't new?
But those things that they upgraded were expected, and necessary to catch up with the competition but are nothing special, especially the screen size, and the design(pretty much the same as the older iphones).
That's why I said you would think it would drop by looking at it

Right said mate..

Aapl actually took longer than I had thought it would, I figured it would have spiked much higher the day of the key note. It's climbing, but it's taking a long time.
Hadn't paid attention to Google but it's great to see them doing well also. They've come a long way, great job.

Well, no. Apple needed Bill Gates and Microsoft to bail them out, or there would probably be no Apple now.

thats the mindset of a true "dictator" bro......good job

Apple is a company that is not going anywhere any time soon... for the pleasure of many and displeasure of a few
12. good2great (Posts: 1042; Member since: 22 Feb 2012)
i have to commend you Gallito... you've kept you're composure through it all... even though apple has the leg up to brag right now. yet you don't troll...
hey what version iphone you're going with?
i never owned a white phone so i'm going with the white/32GB version i have a feeling they aren't gonna make black EarPods the white cords in the black phone just looks too tacky to me...

15. luxzy801 (Posts: 140; Member since: 16 Jun 2010)
I gotta agree with you on this one gallitoking; even if apple drops off from public view or interest, there will always be die hards that will always buy Macs. Just like in the 90's, Microsoft was rockin the OS and manufacturers left and right and little ol' Apple was in the corner making enough off of its die hards to survive.
So, in point, Apple is one of the companies that would always exist, mainly because other companies need them so they wont get sued by the government (ie: Microsoft's Anti-Monopoly case in which they paid Apple to stay up and be competitive)
17. gallitoking (Posts: 4721; Member since: 17 May 2011)
16gb white iphone 5.. for the same reason. like the white earphones..
21. downphoenix (Posts: 3165; Member since: 19 Jun 2010)
Gallitoking, Im disappointed you're only getting a 16GB, that's not enough to prove your apple fandom.
32. Lucas777 (Posts: 2137; Member since: 06 Jan 2011)
"stupid sony fan… smh" ya sound familiar?
and a dictator mindset is displeasure of many, pleasure of a few… any basic study of history shows that

steve jobs was a dictator bro so go figure......
43. clevername (Posts: 1436; Member since: 11 Jul 2008)
He was a CEO and business man. He made his employees and customers happy(of course there are exceptions, and mean apple employees only) . Far from a dictator. Don't confuse his business tactics with a ruler that cares little for human life and less for human rights.
45. XPERIA-KNIGHT (unregistered)
word to the wise.....you dont have to make people suffer like hitler, mussalini etc.... to be a "dictator" it simply means you dictate and "determine" what peoples choices are by influence and power.........apple is doing both and steve jobs made sure it went that way........so gallitokings comment was very much so in sync with the way apple thinks....... make the world think they have the best device out and make them feel happy but at the same time......make them pay outrageous amounts for it....make the operating sytem limited and restricted......tell them what browser they should use and other things like that........thats dictating wheter you like or not........steve jobs said him self "you never let people decide what they want when deciding on a phone" meaning he felt like he knew what you want and it doesnt matter what you think you want personally because you are going to buy what i give you any way...........DICTATOR
49. Lucas777 (Posts: 2137; Member since: 06 Jan 2011)
one fundemental problem with your argument: NOBODY IS FORCING PEOPLE TO BUY AN IPHONE
this is not fascist italy, nazi germany, or communist soviet union.. there are other options… and as android fans so like to say, they are arguably better options
People get an iphone because they LIKE it… people were forced to like nazism and fascism because there was no other choice… nobody likes communism though-- there are a range of smartphones to choice from, as opposed to governments to choose from
50. luxzy801 (Posts: 140; Member since: 16 Jun 2010)
The reason why Gates bailed out Apple is because the US Government slapped a monopoly charge and found them guilty of Monopolizing the industry and forced Microsoft to allow the competition to have an advantage. And yes, you are right, if all this would not have happened, there would be no Apple.
51. XPERIA-KNIGHT (unregistered)
controlling the media would be the same bro becuase if its all you see all the time then the choices will be little to none as people are not as smart as they think they are, people make choices off of their feelings and what "appeals" to the eye most of the time and thats why apples iphone is.... more "beautiful" than it is in depth in the operating system.......the whole idea of the "I" phone and its ecosystem is to be in union with each other and pretty much leave people no choice no matter how much better the other options are........once you are hooked into the apple ecosystem you wouldnt be able to leave if you wanted too because of all the money and time you done invested into it.......and hey why would you want to? beacause everyone else has it so it must be right......right? wrong apple is making decisions for you and making money off you.........and doing so with money.....influence (media) .......and i some cases bullying (court room)
55. Lucas777 (Posts: 2137; Member since: 06 Jan 2011)
so your telling me that the 60% of people who own an android phone dont matter?
i am not sure whether you are mentally unstable or fall for apple advertising yourself…
there are other options and nobody is forcing people to buy an iphone. but they do because they like/want it. period.
57. XPERIA-KNIGHT (unregistered)
i understand its deeper than you may perceive so ill try to not preach to you but apple is indeed striving to be a strong dictator of this world......it is no coincidence that they are growing larger and larger each and every year........they are striving for "legal" control over you and everyone else on this planet......but will they succeed? i think one can only remain at the top for so long until being brought low.........just ask julius ceasar.........peace lucas nice chattin with you
59. gallitoking (Posts: 4721; Member since: 17 May 2011)
Xperia calm down man.. dont think too much.. I just said Apple is not going anywhere me being happy is a plus but doesnt depend on Apple I do have a life you know

Serious question: What would make you happy?
A million bucks? A nose job? A house on the beach? Admittedly, any of those things would indeed make you happy for a while, but none of them are likely the magic elixir that would lead to a life of happiness.
While looking around the Mayo Clinic website, I discovered an article titled How To Be Happy: Tips For Cultivating Contentment. That grabbed my attention. A recipe for happiness? Like a cookbook? From one of the country's foremost and trusted medical sources?
According to that article, only 10 percent of the variation in people's reports of happiness can be explained by the differences in their circumstances. What does that mean?
It means that the perky-nosed person living in the beach house with a million bucks isn't necessarily any happier than you or me. True, that's a bit hard to believe. But, as it turns out, happiness is mostly due to a person's personality and perspective. The thoughts and behaviors that help form that personality can be nurtured and developed.
If that last statement is true, it means you could actually put yourself on a path to happiness - even without a new nose. You can work at it, practice and actually become happier. It's not something you can decide to do instantaneously, but you can definitely move up the happiness continuum if you decide to. Metaphorically, it's like exercising a muscle. The more you work at it, the stronger the muscle becomes.
First, it's a good idea to figure out what makes happy people so darn…happy. According the Mayo article, happiness is built on several pillars. The characteristics of happy people:
Wouldn't it be great if you could just flip those switches and become happy? After all, happy people are more productive, less stressed, and unless you're Woody Allen, more fun to be around.
No, it's not that easy. Remember the muscle analogy. Just because you decide it should be stronger doesn't improve its strength until you do the work.
Let's look at those pillars, one step at a time. Use this as your recipe for happiness.
Family and friends are the people who support you even when the going gets rough. Realize their importance to you and tell them so. Treat them well and support them when they need it. When it comes to friends and family, expect more from yourself in the relationship than you get. Don't worry; it'll even out. Work at it, and you'll build a strong framework that can withstand strong winds.
When you have a choice in who you spend time with, remember what you already know: When you're around cantankerous, grouchy, negative people, you start feeling lousy. And when you're around positive people with an upbeat attitude, you smile and feel better.
Personally, I like to make a distinction here. There are people who take a rather blithe approach to the world, as if simply everything is always wonderful. If you're that person, how will you ever solve problems, right wrongs and create positive change? How will you ever grow? There's nothing wrong with identifying a problem, then taking a positive approach to solving it.
That statement doesn't mean you shouldn't work toward new goals and strive to enrich your life. But be thankful for the place you live, the people you know, even the coffee you're sipping. Really taste your food when you're at dinner. Concentrate on how the warm water feels in the shower. When the clouds break, look at how the light edges the clouds and how the sky turns that amazing, unbelievable blue. That color still knocks me out every time I see it. Does that sound too much like Pollyanna? I don't think it's living a delusion. I think it's being aware. Too often, we forget to be amazed.
This one requires a reality check in my opinion. Sometimes lousy things happen, and sometimes they're really bad. Pretending they're not isn't optimism. It's avoidance. But when things are just bopping along during your day-to-day existence, you have the ability to look at your day through whatever lens you choose.
I remember a time in my own life when I'd spill coffee on myself and blurt something like "This is going to be a crummy day!" Guess what? I was right nearly every single time. Finally, I learned that it works both ways. It really does. And even when things don't go the way you want, it's rarely something that's going to dramatically affect your life.
Work at it, and remind yourself to stay positive when you start to slip. Eventually, optimism sticks.
That task probably sounds more grandiose and intimidating than it should. Sure, some people devote their life to a cause, and that's great. But this might simply mean setting a goal and reaching it. Grow a garden. Stay in touch with long distance friends. Become proficient in a newly learned skill, like playing the guitar.
It might be tough to identify just what will help you move forward here. The Mayo clinic site recommends that you ask these questions in order to start forming a plan:
Look for opportunities to savor what's happening today. Don't wait for tomorrow.
Try to avoid dwelling on the past or worrying about the future, which is easier said than done. Work toward the future, of course, but don't lose sight of today, and enjoy it fully if you can.
Remember, changing your outlook takes time and effort. Anything worth doing does. In my book, working toward becoming happier is definitely worth the effort, especially since every step in the process outlined here feels far better than the alternative.
What would make you happy? We'd love to know your recipe for happiness in the comments below.

Now well forgotten, Travis Blaylock however experienced during the 1950s some commercial success under the name Harmonica Slim, which even earned him to be the only Harmonica Slim on the market, forcing James Moore to abandon his Harmonica Slim nickname for Slim Harpo and Richard Riggins (who would make several very good disks for Fedora under this nickname later on) keeps his true surname. Travis Leonard Blaylock was born December 21, 1934 in Douglassville, a village of the Texas-Arkansas border, a border that his parents crossed a few years later to settle in the largest city of Texarkana. It was around the age of twelve that Travis Blaylock began playing the harmonica under the influence of several neighbors and the records of John Lee "Sonny Boy" Williamson. He sang and played with a local gospel group, the Sunny South Gospel Singers. He was a close friend with guitarist Martin Fulson (brother of Lowell) and they soon formed a small group who hosted a weekly radio show on station KCMC of Texarkana. In 1949, Travis moved to Los Angeles and integrated very quickly the important and very perennial scene of blues and R & B of that time, even becoming a part time member of the band of Lowell Fulson who included pianist Lloyd Glenn at that time. He recorded as a harmonica player with several West Coast sessions prior to founding, under the name Harmonica Slim, a small blues band which often included superb piano playing by Lloyd Glenn. During the 50's, Slim recorded a dozen titles between 1954 and 1960 that happily mixed Texas Country blues with arrangements much more sophisticated in the mould of the current R & B California sounds. "Mary Helen" and especially "You better believe it" (entering the Top 100 R & B) were small hits that allowed Harmonica Slim to be part of the great R & B tours crisscrossing the United States, in the company of Lowell Fulson, Percy Mayfield, T-Bone Walker, Ray Charles, Pee Wee Crayton and B.B. King. But the 1960s were lean years to Slim who had to take a job in the factory to make a living. At the end of the decade, T-Bone Walker brought Slim to producer Bob Thiele, who agreed to record a whole album for his label Bluestime in the company of jazz and R & B musicians like saxophonist Plas Johnson. Curiously enough, Thiele , (who recorded several times George Smith) found the style of Harmonica Slim too rural and "primitive" and decided to replace his blowing parts by those of Smith a much more urban and jazzy harpman that Slim. This album, quite unknown to most, and very rare to these days, has many qualities. After the death of his father in 1971, Harmonica Slim returned to care for his mother at Texarkana. He worked in a gas station while playing regularly with the local band of guitarist Nelson Carson. He recorded with them for Louis Guida in 1975-76, unfortunately those sessions remained unpublished. After the death of his mother, Harmonica Slim gave up the blues for good and was reborn Travis Blaylock, turned definitively to the gospel and the religion. He even become a Reverend of the local Baptist Church until he died on June 16, 1984 in Texarkana. The compilation that I propose today brings together his complete recorded works with the exception of two titles ("Buddah" and "You") that I have not been able to get. As always, if anyone has them, a copy would be welcome and would allow the "complete recordings" be more… complete! – Gérard HERZHAFT
NB: Depuis la publication de cet article, plusieurs d'entre vous m'ont contacté en me donnant d'autres titres de Harmonica Slim qui ne se trouveraient pas dans cette "intégrale". Mais en fait, tous ces morceaux proviennent non pas de Travis Blaylock mais d'autres Harmonica Slim, en particulier Richard Riggins. Il y a deux autres musiciens au moins qui ont enregistré sous ce sobriquet: l'un dans les années 60 pour Blue Horizon, l'autre quelques titres live en 1985 en compagnie de Boogie Bill Webb. Ni l'un ni l'autre n'ont de rapport avec Blaylock qui est décédé en 1984 comme l'atteste la photo de sa pierre tombale.
Since I posted this article, several readers have written to me giving tracks by Harmonica Slim that are not in this "complete recording works". Unfortunately, those are by other bluesmen taking the same nickname, particularly Richard Riggins who recorded quite extensively under this moniker during the 1990's. At least two other musicians have recorded under the Harmonica Slim nickname, (one for Blue Horizon, the other in 1985 three tracks live in New Orleans with Boogie Bill Webb). Neither of them are our man. Travis Blaylock died in 1984, leaving only one unissued session made by Louis Guida in Texarkana in 1972. All the rest (minus two titles that I don't own) are on this homemade record.

New Clew, also Clue, Kloo, Kliew, Klue, Clew Indian Reserve, is a locality and First Nations reserve of the Haida people, located on the north shore of Louise Island, which is located in Cumshewa Inlet in the Queen Charlotte Islands of the North Coast of British Columbia, Canada.
New Clew is believed to be the site of the historically important Haida village of Tanu or Tlanú, a National Historic Site of Canada[1] which has been cited by anthropologist Wilson Duff as being "of historical importance". "Kloo" is the word in the Skidegate dialect of the Haida language for "canoe".
Across the inlet from New Clew is Cumshewa, which is near the site of another historical village, Djí-gua.
"...Kloo (Tlanú)... would seem to be a very modern town. In recent times the people of this town moved to a place where the so-called "Kloo Oil Works" were built, not far from the old site of Djí-gua, but after living there a few years, passed on the Skidegate." (Stanton, J.R., The Haida; Jesup Expedition, vol 5, pt 1, 1905, pp.96-97)

"We'd written it into the script and always knew we were going to have to come up with it," Marling says. "But it was so hard to get that movie made, we kind of kept forgetting. We had 25 people, 17 locations, and no money. I'd wake up in the morning and come out of the shower in my bathrobe, and there would be a fleet of interns in the living room and someone making omelets for everyone. And every day we'd say, 'We have to get to that handshake today.' Then it was literally the night before we were to shoot the scene where the handshake first appears, and we realized we had forgotten. So Zal and I watched all these YouTube videos of handshakes—there are some amazing ones, they're like performance pieces. We sort of borrowed what we needed and came up with things from our own experience and came up with it. We would all practice on set; it became a fun bonding experience."

New Delhi, Feb 14 (PTI) Former Telecom Minister A Rajawas remanded today to CBI custody for 3 more days forinterrogation on his alleged role in 2G spectrum allocationscam along with Swam Telecom-promoter Shahid Usman Balwa whosecustody was extended by rpt by four days.
The court remanded the Raja and Balwa to CBI''s custodytill February 17 saying the crime is "enormous".
Special Judge O P Saini extended Raja''s custody,ignoring his allegation that CBI was being driven by politicalmotive instead of probing the case against him.
"What is the purpose of police custody? (It''s not clear)whether they (CBI) want it for unearthing the conspiracy orhave political motive. CBI should not make it a political gameand they should investigate only," Raja''s counsel Ramesh Guptacontended before the court, opposing CBI''s plea for extensionof his client''s custody.
However, the judge said "the crime is enormous in natureand its investigation is time-consuming. Accordingly,considering the enormity of the crime, complex and complicatednature of the investigation, voluminous documents involved inthe case, I find that the prayer for further custodialinterrogation of the accused persons is justified.
The 47-year-old DMK leader, who has been facing anintense grilling by CBI sleuths for the last 11 days at theagency headquarters, opposed CBI''s plea saying "no new factshave come on record during the previous police custodyremand."
"There is no justification for extension of policecustody remand," contended Gupta.
Seeking extension of remand, senior public prosecutorAkhilesh, said both the accused were confronted with eachother during the custodial interrogation but they were"evasive in their replies". (more) PTI ABA RAX

Like its better known cousin, summer savory, winter savory is most often used as a culinary herb, imparting a spicy, peppery flavor to dishes in which it is used. Easy to grow, the hardy perennial makes an excellent companion plant for most other herbs. Its aromatic scent repels harmful insects and pests while attracting bees and other pollinators. Winter savory has a stronger, sharper flavor than its summer cousin, but it still blends well with thyme, sage and rosemary as well as most mints. While its most popular uses are culinary, winter savory has often been used for medicinal purposes over the course of history.
Carvacrol, a position isomer of thymol (30 to 45%), p-cymene (max. 30%), y-terpinene, a-pinene (8%), dipentene, borneol, 1-linalool, terpineol and 1-carvone
Parts Used
All aerial parts
Typical Preparations
Dried, or fresh whole leaves in food, as a warming tea and in personal care preparations.
Whether used for its medicinal properties or to flavor food, winter savory has been around since before the days of the Romans. Its sharp, spicy-peppery tang makes it a favorite flavoring for pork, beef and poultry, and a popular addition to soups and salads.

text: Hello! I'm having this weird problem. After about each second/third reboot one of my 6 hard drives become read only. It usually happen to a random drive (though, so far drive where W7 is installed never had that disease, yet) . I can't change any files on that drive and even right click option "New" is missing too (meaning I can't create new folders, files, etc.) The drive stays read only until I run check disk with "automatic fix file system errors" enabled. (UPDATE: it worked only once, after that I had to clear up readonly attribute with diskpart shell command) I don't recall ever seeing W7 do scan disk at startup, but I've seen XP doing that, but XP does it usually to one HDD, because of one faulty program I'm using on it. So, I'm not sure if W7 even has that scan at boot feature at all...If for some reason it decided mark a hdd as "dirty", then why not scan it at boot as XP does? Just yesterday I fresh installed W7, and today a HDD that I haven't use (and no programs are using it) become read only. I think it's some kind of a bug in OS itself, because it happens so random... Any ideas what could cause this and most importantly how to make it stop it? Thank you.

Operation Surgeon
Operation Surgeon was a British post-Second World War programme to exploit German aeronautics and deny German technical skills to the Soviet Union.
A list of 1,500 German scientists and technicians was drawn up. Policy was to forcibly remove "whether they liked it or not" the scientists from Germany to lessen the risk of them falling into enemy hands.[1]
It was feared that if they were allowed to remain in Germany they might enable the Soviet Union to "achieve a long range bomber force superior to any other in the world".[2]
Of the removed scientists in the years 1946-1947, 100 chose to work for the UK.
Many of the listed scientists had already at the inception of the operation offered their services to British Commonwealth countries, Sweden, Switzerland, Brazil and South America, and regarded working for the Soviet Union as a last resort if stopped from working in Germany and unable to find employment elsewhere in the west.
British records of the operation were made public in 2006.

Customer Reviews
- Good but could be a little better Review by Extreme 1
Very long so you can get it deep, fits easily and feels good. Vibration is felt but needs to be stronger.
(Posted on 4/10/17)
- Holy cow! Review by EDraven
Extra long? How about extra wide too!
I'm an amatuer and this thing is intimidating! I don't know if I can use it, or even want to try it!
I'll let you know...
I put a battery in and the vibrations aren't that strong.
(Posted on 3/17/17)
- Needs a curve Review by StuffedRod
A great setup, vibration is strong, only drawback for me is not being able to insert fully, the tip needs a 15 degree curve to allow full insertion past prostate and into bladder, in my opinion
(Posted on 3/3/17)
- High quality NOT for beginners Review by AJ
Excellent quality but I didn't realize just how wide it was. To wide for my use. I'd love to see a 5-7mm in this length. Item description should mention that it is wide
(Posted on 2/3/17)
- Great sound Review by GILLES
This product is great and high quality....
The vibration is a little weak to my taste I will have preferred stronger or adjustment in intensity ....
(Posted on 1/10/17)
- Nice Review by Ed
Works well , plenty long enough, wish it was thicker 9 or 10mm, and vibrated harder.
(Posted on 12/28/16)
- Very good quality Review by Elvis5
Very pleased with the quality
(Posted on 12/25/16)
- Wow Review by EZBuddy
I have been using the 7mm vibrating sound for a while, but I wanted to step up my game a bit. This sound is incredible. I have to take it easier, as the 10mm tip doesn't want to slide in as easily, but if I relax and take it easy I get it to slide past the opening. There are several great things about this sound. The first is that the vibration is much faster than my other sound. The second thing is the length. I can't quite get it in all the way, as I end up hitting my prostate, but when I do I have a pulsating cum like never before.
Definitely worth it!
(Posted on 12/25/16)
- Awesome toy. Review by Brat45
I love this sound. It fits great and the vibrations are amazing!
(Posted on 12/24/16)
- This is AMAZING Review by Goin' Deep
I think this is the best sound that I've purchased. I was a little fearful about the 10mm bead... the biggest I've been able to get in was a 9mm. Don't know if it's actually smaller than 10mm or I've stretched even more. Anyway, I used lots of lube and got it in. I waited to go as deep as I could before I turned on the vibrator. Like many of the reviews, I wish the vibration was a little stronger. I was taking it in and out for a couple of minutes, then I went as deep as I could. It felt so amazing. Within minutes I couldn't hold back any longer. Amazing orgasm!
(Posted on 10/26/16)
- Great Stretcher Review by John
This is the best ever stretcher that I have used. I highly recommend this stretcher.

- extra long sound Review by fish
Excellent product and quality, extra long to hit the spot that feels great!
(Posted on 9/10/16)
- Wow Review by cajkaren
Feels great when inserted all the way. I wish the vibration was more intense but other wise no complints
(Posted on 9/6/16)
- Good Product for Beginner Review by Tim
It's a good product for beginner! It was a little scary to insert that long rod into my penis at first, but I learned to manipulate very fast. The only issues I have are that (1) I got infection a couple times, and (2) I want it go get deeper after it passes through the prostate area... can I?
Like everyone comments, not that I want it wider, including the tip, and stronger vibration.
I love to leave it in my penis and take a nap! Haha.
(Posted on 9/3/16)
- 50/50 Review by Dick
It is what I wanted, however very little vibration. Only a slight humming sound.
(Posted on 8/23/16)
- Great product Review by Steph
I have love this item apart from the screw on off it a bit loose & with vigorous handling it can turn off at that crucial moment . Felt the vibrations all of the way in and out then staying in. Vibrator works good but would like the vibrations more intense and the tip to be a little larger.
(Posted on 8/21/16)
- good vibrations Review by pieater
I have gotten this all in except about 3 inches. Felt the vibrations all of the way in and out then staying in. Vibrator works good but would like the vibrations more intense. All in all very good

- best ever Review by usaboy
This is the best ever ball weight and stretcher. It's very very comfortable to wear. It's easy to put on and off with the one screw. I highly recommend this stretcher.
(Posted on 7/2/16)
- WOW Review by wanting more
This sound id absolutely amazing. I haven't been doing this very long but am advancing at a decent pace. This gives me thrills in places I didn't experience before. I hope to find more like this at the Chain Gang. Thanks.

- SUPER ITEM Review by max
A buddy purchased this after I introduced him to sounding. WAY TOO BIG FOR HIM!! So i have it now and this has opened up, and keeps the strictures open for a nice even stream now, BPH and scar tissue! However I uses it almost every day as the vibes are just mind numbing in every spot it touches. The 10mm end is the right size for me and while in the prostate sends chills up and down my penis. The bladder 'door' gets very excited as well and I can use this in those 2 spots for hours! If you can get 10mm in this is the item for you! the tighter the better, just use lube to get through the tip. Vibes could be stronger but I also supplement it with an external vibrator to enhance the feelings.
(Posted on 5/6/16)
- Very well done. Review by SoundSong
This product is a very well done unit. The level of finish is top drawer. Vibration can always be better, there just isn't too much anywhere. My only wish is that there were more diameter transition at the tip. That transition inside the prostrate is what works for me. Still, 5 stars! Length is perfect!
(Posted on 3/15/16)
- Good buy Review by David
As expected, the product has the look and feel of a medical instrument. The probe end is threaded on. Is a larger diameter available? The vibration intensity is fine, allows you to keep track of how deep you're going. Is a stronger vibe available? Thought I'd feel more when passing through the prostate.
(Posted on 3/12/16)
- very good Review by farmboy110
I am a beginner with urethra toys and was able to use most of it. Have had to be tubed in the hospital a couple of times, so maybe that is why it fit. One question is, can you go into the bladder with the end or would the end be too much?.
(Posted on 2/21/16)
- Fantastic addition Review by Don
This is a great addition to my sounding! The 10mm fills you completely and while the vibrator isn't intense, it's very stimulating when left on for several minutes. Like everything else I've gotten from thechaingang, the workmanship is top notch. The on off switch is a great feature!!
(Posted on 2/4/16)

Great tool, awsome, scared me! I took my time , now need to work on taking more.

- A long Pleasure... Review by Metalman
The incredible look of the vibrating sound really took me back ! Being a newby to the urethral play I guess I didn't know what to expect ...
But I figured what the heck Russ must know what works ... So I gave it a try and oh boy ! It's really working for me !
My mistress will certainly be interested in our new devise, she always keeps me in Line ... Thank You ,

- Best sound ever! Review by BigRed
Take it as deep as you can. Cleans up easy so you can share with a friend! Take turnes watching how long you can take it before you shoot your load###
(Posted on 11/20/15)
- Worth It! Review by CG
This sound definitely is worth the price. Excellent quality as always from Chain Gang. Don't let the length throw you off. If you don't want the length, don't use all of it but work your way up, carefully.
This one is Not recommended for newbies. Wait until you know your internal map thoroughly.
BTW folks, CG are my real initials, don't confuse with Chain Gang, please. They would never stoop to writing their own reviews. They don't have to because the quality of their products speaks for itself.
Russ, do you think you could maybe work on getting better vibrations out of these pieces? I mean really muckle down on this problem, because it is a problem. I now own all three of your vibrating sounds and love them as I do, the vibration is always only so-so. Maybe putting more of the weight off centre somehow or changing to a more dense material for the weight, or even BOTH! Yeah, that would be good.
We are already working on that, the Firecracker is a double battery one though if you need more vibration.
(Posted on 10/2/15)
- Incredible feeling Review by Dusty
First time ever with a vibarating sound it was a feeling like nothing else. The vibarating could stand to be a little stronger but then again this is the first one I've ever had.

This thing is a beast length wise. I took it as far as I can and still had an
inch or so before the battery housing to go. The vibrator could be a bit
stronger but it still feels amazing

Not for the faint of heard , experence a must would love more power and vibration

- Wow! Review by Onewildryd
This toy is amazing. It's definitely not for a beginner but man it's fun to play with. Watching it disappear inch by inch into my dick was so intense and once it reached about the 8" mark the vibrations it put out seemed to reach my entire groin. I would totally recommend anyone who like serious urethral play to buy this item. You won't be disappointed.

- Exquisite!!! Review by Sounder
Have been using Sounds for a few years now and wanted to move up from my 12" long (9" insert-able) vibrating sound. When this one arrived it looked huge compared to my old one. Cleaned it, lubed up, and went o stuffing. It took a little doing to get the large end inside my urethra but once I got past that first inch My cock gobbled up as much of the length it could without going inside my bladder. What an awesome feeling and it wasn't long before the vibration and my girlfriends hand had me cumming. I believe I have just found my favorite new Sound. I highly recommend for regular Sounder's but not for beginners
(Posted on 2/22/15)
- Sensory overload Review by Dubaiboi
Totally awesome! I'm been Sounding for decades so the length isn't an issue. I like going for deep penetration. I can even E-Stim with it as a single pole source at the same time. Sensory overload! :)

- Everything as expected Review by Marc
Good, quick service. Good follow up. Product exceeds all it's reviewed to be. Truly not a beginner's toy (oomph!). Once past the meatus, ooo-la-la.

- excited to get started. Review by grumpi
As I have a penile implant, thereby unable to access the urethra. I do believe that with some expansion "work" i would be able to get this beautiful toy for what it is intended for..In your opinion, of the expansion products you offer, what would you suggest? It would have to be something that could be worn around the clock for the best end result. I am really looking forward to this experience. Outside vibration just doesn!t cut it.
(Posted on 9/7/14)
- Good and deep Review by Midwest Sounder
Vibration is more like a humming. Length is more than enough and diameter is nice if you are not new to sounding. Great feelings and hours of enjoyment. Good advice, it's not a race, tame your time and it will blow your mind.

- Great product, could be even better Review by Raffi
The quality and length are the best things about this unit. The vibes are decent enough for my tastes. There are a few things that I feel could be improved upon, though...
1. I think that a tapered tip like on a typical Dittel sound would be great for getting this monster started without negatively affecting the experience.
2. It would be great if there was a smaller version offered as well. As others have said, the diameter is big and it isn't for beginners, but even if you have some experience with sounding, you don't always want to be at the biggest diameter you can fit (at least not everyone does) so a smaller version that you don't have to work at would be nice to have, at least when you want a "quick fix".
3. Ship it in a box! Mine came in a padded envelope earlier this month and just like the others, it had poked a hole through the envelope on one end. Had it been a longer trip, I fear it would have worn the hole a bit bigger and actually fallen out.
Other than those things, pretty nice piece!
(Posted on 5/29/14)
- Love it! Review by Anon
Be careful! This isn't a "Race"! Go slow & enjoy this will, "Rock Ur World" & curl your toes! One of my best toys! As usual the Chain Gang's service is the best!

All I want to do is lay around,drink Margaritas and play with my new toy.Every inch of this thing warms my heart, soul and a couple other parts.The first time using it, got the angle just right, it slid in to the bottom, tingling things I never knew I had. For those that can't seem to make it work just right, changing angle can really make the difference.
Have fun and be safe.

- Nice Vibrations Review by LP
This thing is awesome. I really like the length of this vibrating sound, it goes places the short ones don`t. The quality and finish are great. I would also like to add that the delivery was ok, but would like to point out when receiving my purchase I notice that the paper shipping envelope your company uses from the post office was riped open on one end, and my vibrating sound and other items were hanging out of the paper envelope.Seems to me things of this nature binging as heavy and long as they were you should have shipped them in a postal box .Not to happy about this shipping method for these types of things, they can easily be lost in transit.
You are correct and we will try to insure that the sounds can be packed better in the future. We are looking into getting larger boxes without having to increase your shipping cost right now.

I love the topic of mentorship. I especially love the topic of protégé ship (man, that really ought to be a word).
I find that most of us – especially my fellow guys – are not highly skilled at tapping into wiser minds. I believe this is primarily due to pride and ego, and as a result, we make the wrong assumptions about mentorship that keep us from diving in.
Here are four ways we often misunderstand mentorship.
We expect the mentor to be perfect in every sense.
We know this fantastic strategy guy at work. He can think outside the box, synthesize gobs of information into simple paths forward, and present to management like a champ.
However, he's not usually on time for meetings. So, instead of diving in and learning his approach to strategy, we just write him off as a slacker and keep our distance.
This "throw the baby out with the bathwater" approach is usually a defense mechanism employed by pride. So we justify only being able to learn from those who are unblemished. And, who does this leave as a potential mentor? Exactly. No one.
Having a mentor does offer one very important lesson: we learn that the "mentor-messiah" is a myth. Let's approach capable leaders to learn instead of only being willing to learn from those who appear flawless.
We assume the relationship must last forever.
When approaching a mentor, you aren't creating a lifelong pact. You don't have to be attached to this person until death do you part.
Your engagement may be for three years or only three lunches. When you sense the relationship has run its course, it's perfectly fine to back off. Do not continue to meet just for meeting's sake.
We fear we must follow every recommendation.
Sometimes we believe that we are signing over our entire life to the mentor. Whatever she says, we must do, and without objection. Otherwise, we become a mindless pawn the Grandmaster moves around at will.
This one is delicate because there is some level of truth to it. It is unproductive and prevents development if we try to find a mentor just to validate what we are already thinking.
We are not signing over our marriage, career, or house to someone just because they are good at what they do. We must submit to their counsel with prayerful consideration, especially when it impacts major life decisions.
Strike the right balance. Gain solid input but do not check your brain at the door.
We wait around until the mentor selects us.
I strongly believe we have the responsibility to chase the mentor, not the other way around. This is not playground team selection. Do not sit on the sidelines and cry, "He didn't pick me!"
Chase the gifted leaders. Get on their calendars. Submit yourself to their input and schedule.
Great mentors usually materialize when the protégé approaches.
Let's rid ourselves of these flawed assumptions regarding mentorship. We have wise guys and gals all around us who we can approach to learn and grow, if only we will ask.

At this time all tickets are maintained in the inventory database, so what you are asking is not easily accomplished.

First 6ish weeks in Sheffield
... Botanical Gardens and the nearby Sheffield General Cemetery. Avery was pumped for the cemetery because she studies mortuary archaeology. It has actually been closed since the 70's and is quite overgrown with headstones knocked over and such, but made for an interesting experience. The British apparently don't like to think about death much and tend to put cemeteries on the outskirts of town. Later that weekend, we happened across a cultural fest and grabbed some authentic dutch ...

We stopped for a bite to eat at the services and arrived at Jemima's at 00.30am we had now been travelling for 24 hours and we were shattered, so we took ourselves off to ...

My general advice to them was to provide solutions to the problem not just to identify the problem and walk away. If i inspired 1 out of the 20 to do that then maybe one day they will help :) I like to think i may have gotten through to a few more.

I cleaned out the attic and started lime pointing in the living area as the plaster work was so rotten I had removed it with a garden spade!! Andy came across in ...

You need a lawyer and a hope of micro-fishSee question
Just been aproved for VA Pension. I am getting ready to apply for retirement. I get to keep both?
At 62 your disability payment from SSD will be higher than an early retirement election. VA benefits can also be recovered along with SSD. Dont try for early retirement (SS Speaking) if you are already getting SSD for your disability. Saddle up and Rde it out with SSD and VA benefits.See question
I will be 66 years old and will apply for Social Security and will also apply for Social Security for my husband to receive half of my benefit, He recently returned to the Philippines to live there. He has an immigrant visa to stay in the US but...

your decision is coming...it can take 30-90 days depending on your judge. If you do some work (not recommended at this late stage) keep it under 20 hours and under 1000 for the month. Otherwise you 'could" really screw things up. A little work and a little pay while you are waiting can be "off-set" from your retro recovery...but it sure won't look good cowboySee question
the father of two children has never worked at all due to illness, he now gets a small ssd check but my kids get nothing. why? and is there any programs to help now or with college? i have never gotten child support.
If he never worked, he is probably getting SSI not SSD (unless he is going under a disabled parent SS #. Kids of a disabled individual are entitled to benefits as well...under certain circumstances. often, the benefits are awarded to the biological children of a disabled parent, exclusive of his benefit!. You need to take your children info (birth certificate, SS card etc) to SS office and see if they qualify. Also, consult with a Family lawyer if you want child support deducted from your husbands meager benefits.See question
accident was 2004 head injury well documented. work has changed and I can't continue. dizzy balance problems.
You have the right to apply for SSD if you are unable to work and that disability has lasted or is expected to last over a year. An employer cant apply for you...you should talk to Both a Work Comp lawyer and a social security lawyer.See question
My child gets auxilliary benefits from my SS work record and am curious to know how these benefits will effect CS. I am the custodial parent. Will these benefits be added to my income? Will it offset the NCPs financial obligation?
Shouldn't affect a non custodial parent's obligation to support his kid, nor the amount previously set by a Family court of law. Child support is not "your income". Alimony is your income, but child support is the Child's money.See question
I am 22yrs old. My father died in 1993, parents not married and he did not sign my birth certificate. My half brother(diff mothers) recieved survivor benefits until he was 18, his mother filed for him, father signed birth certificate. My question ...
You can "apply" for them...retro will probably not apply being that you have not applied. Your success in this endeavor will prove difficult though. You should apply, see why you are denied and bring that denial to a lawyer for review and consult. success unlikely for many reasons, but you have a right to apply and try my friend.See question
I am collecting unemployed right now, but i am also 33 weeks pregnant. I was told by unemployment that 6 weeks before my due date i must file for temporary disability, which is next week. and unemployment told me that i can no longer claim my week...
There is a form of 'temp diss' but it is rarely issued and is more like welfare than SS. Unless you are speaking of a private or work issued short term dissability policy. If this is the case, you paid for the STD/LTD policy and should atempt to use it. SSI/SSD is really a "total dissability" benefit and is not usually considered "short term dissability coverage".See question

Other Coverages
Promotional Indemnity – Prize Insurance
Most people are familiar with half-court basketball shots and hole-in-one contests but these don't even scratch the surface of the creative ways that your school can increase its revenue. You can also partner with a sponsor which can offset the cost of insurance while increasing the sponsor's visibility, helping you to further enhance this critical relationship.
Event Cancellation Coverage
As Hurricane Katrina showed, one devastating occurrence can have a financial impact for years to come. Whether it's the Final 4, a conference tournament, or an institution's complete sporting season, significant dollars are at stake should such a catastrophic event cause the cancellation or postponement of your event(s). Expenses, and in some cases gross revenue, can be included under this cover to address the unexpected which seems to occur more often than ever these days. In addition to hurricanes, perils such as communicable disease and terrorist acts can be included in this protection.
Weather Coverage
Have you ever had an outdoor event impacted by rain? How much money did it cost the school? Did you know that you can protect against poor weather during your outdoor events? Rain insurance provides just such peace of mind as this coverage reimburses the institution if the insured amount of rain falls during the insured hours of the event. Simple as that! Don't let your next fundraiser be at risk.
Incentive Bonus
Many institutions include incentive bonuses in their coach's contracts to help motivate and maximize a team's performance. Did you know that these bonuses are often insurable? The bonuses themselves are typically a liability on the school's balance sheet until the season is completed. Insurance coverage removes these liabilities and frees cash for the marketing – or other – department to spend in a more productive manner. This protection also stabilizes the maximum amount of financial obligation to be incurred by the school, making a successful season a truly 'win-win' scenario.
