Seems to me there are an unlimited number of “rabbit” type vibrators on the market. The thumper is a rabbit vibrator and clitoral stimulator. I’ve found it interesting that the “rabbit” or clitoral stimulator is a little different is the various vibrators. You have the rabbit ears, the dolphin nose, butterfly wings, elephant trunk, eager beaver, and any other shape the manufacturers use So – here is my question ladies… What helps you decide which clitoral stimulator you want on your vibe? Here is a theory, does the type of clitoral stimulation you want — harder, softer, fluttery, etc – help you decide which vibe you’d prefer?

Okay – enough theory, let’s move on to the facts. This is a gorgeous purple toy – and everyone who reads all my reviews, knows purple is my favorite color It is a silicone toy, so it has that great smooth, luscious feel. The shaft of the vibrator is 1 1/4″ wide and 5″ long. Its not huge, but it is a nice size. There i a smooth swirl built into the shaft and the tip is tilted toward the G-spot. Yes, ladies, it has clitoral and G-spot stimulation. For people who aren’t familiar with the rotating shaft tip — you have 3 vibrations in the shaft and 4 speeds in the rotation — so many variations.

The power and vibration buttons all work very easy. When you are holding the vibrator in front of you – the lower button is for power. Push that and the lights come on – this is so handy in the dark The middle button control the shaft vibration and the top button controls the rotation of the tip.Quite a few of vibes with the rotating tip are noisy – but this unit is very quiet.

If you like dual stimulation and rabbit vibes – I think you will definitely enjoy this vibe. I always recommend being creative and experiment with the vibrator to see what works best for you. The various speeds and rotation give plenty of options to get started. If you’re playing alone or with a partner, remember that you can move the vibrator any way you want. Close your eye and think — if the rabbit ears were your fingers, how would you move them? And, have fun with it

If you’re playing with your partner – let them play with the vibrator in a variety of way to stimulate various places on your body. If you really want to experiment on yourself or your partner – you may want to turn the vibrator around. Have you used the vibrator anally and used the rabbit ears to tickle your “million dollar spot”? This can work for men or women – and the rotating tip can massage the male G-spot… Give it a try and let me know how it works for you…

Master Sexpert Tips -

• Use plenty of lube for clitoral, vaginal, G-spot or especially anal massage
• Be creative – this toy has the usual “rabbit” shape, but you can still turn it and use at slightly different angles to see which feel better for you. Let your partner try many variations (you have 6 vibrations, pulses etc to use) and let him/her know what you like better. Then use it on them
• Be sure to thoroughly clean all toys before and after you use them. This is really easy with toy cleaner or soap and hot water.
• What about using this type on your man – on his perineum (test his sensitivity), on his scrotum and on his shaft — use your imagination and watch his reactions to see if he likes it.
• Depending on the size of an anal vibrator that you or your man or woman enjoy – you could use plenty of lube and use this for anal stimulation – and wouldn’t he love that rabbit tickler on his perineum while his G-spot i being stimulated. Since you have the toy to use, you could also give him oral sex at the same time… I will mention to be sure that you use plenty of lube – the shaft is a little wider and that may be uncomfortable for some people to use anally, especially if you’re new to anal play.
• If you are a woman and you have enjoyed G-spot massage before, or if you want to try it — this is a nice toy for an intense G-spot orgasm ladies. (Don’t forget to go to the bathroom before you start.)
• G-spot tip – even though this can make it easy, you still need to know where the G-spot is located. If your partner is using their finger to massage your G-spot, they need to lay their hand with the palm up, insert their finger(s) in your vagina and reach inside a couple of inches. They need to move their forefinger in a “come hither” way and they will be very close to the G-spot. When stimulated, it feels like a small patch of corduroy – that is the area to stimulate. With this toy, you need to move it so that the “stimulator” tip reaches that spot. Even if you have to “play” to reach the right spot, you will be stimulated. If you feel like you have to go to the bathroom – you’re in the right area — don’t stop now… go for it. Now – you want to stimulate that area with the vibrator.

• For people and especially for women who are new to G-spot stimulation — it feels like you need to pee, when the G-spot is stimulated – use the bathroom before starting your exploration and stimulation. Don’t stop because of this feeling, its just an indication that you’re on the verge of sheer bliss — go with that feeling…
• Use plenty of lube (Moist Lube or Moist Gel is a great choice) for anal massage. You may prefer the gel since it is a thicker consistency, but you can try several types to see which is better for you. Click the product names for my reviews for each and a list of all the Moist varieties.
• Be creative – this toy has a great shape, so turn it and use at different angles to see which feel better for you. Let your partner try many variations and let him/her know what you like better. Then use it on them

Civil Rights Leaders Make Emergency Phone Call Appeal to the Senior 11^th Circuit District Federal Appeals Court Judges to Stop Davis Execution

Los Angeles Urban Policy Roundtable President Earl Ofari Hutchinson and other civil rights leaders on Wednesday Morning, September 21, will make an 11^th hour direct phone call appeal to Chief of the 11^th Federal District Court in Atlanta, Georgia Joel F. Dubina and five other senior judges on the 11^th District Federal Appeals Court to grant an emergency stay of the scheduled execution of Troy Davis. The court has jurisdiction over appeals cases in Georgia, Alabama, and Florida.

The rights leaders asked for the emergency stay to allow Davis’s attorneys to file a new legal brief in the case. Federal Appeals judges have granted emergency stays of scheduled executions in a number of cases in the past to allow more time to review evidence in a capital case. L.A. Urban Policy Roundtable Political Affairs Director Pedro Baez personally called each of the judges on behalf of the civil rights leader’s coalition and asked for a stay of Davis’s scheduled execution.

“We have asked the federal judges in the 11^th District Court for an 11^th hour stay of Davis’s scheduled execution, “ says Hutchinson,” There is more than enough doubt about his guilt to warrant a stay for further review of the case. Davis’s fate now rests squarely in the judges hands.”

Here are the 11^th District Court Senior Judges the Los Angeles Urban Policy Roundtable called.

Chief Judge Joel F. Dubina

Judge James C. Hill

Judge Peter T. Fay

Judge Phyllis A. Kravitch

Judge R. Lanier Anderson

Judge Emmett Ripley Cox

Are you looking for the newest useful app for your phone? Then you should take a look at Google Wallet. Do you think its a good idea?

43 Things You Should Know About Google Wallet May 28, 2011 http://www.WebProNews.com Would you use Google Wallet to store all of your credit card information? Let us know what you think

43 Things You Should Know About Google Wallet Chris Crum | Staff Writer For Consumers and Businesses This week, Google introduced Google Wallet, which could either be representative of the future of how we pay for things and organize our daily lives or a massive bust. Time will tell. In the meantime, we’ve compiled a great deal of information about the product, and what’s known about it before its true launch. Share your thoughts about Google Wallet with us in the comments. Here is what you need to know about google Wallet: 1. Google Wallet stores virtual versions of credit cards and coupons on a phone. 2. It will also store loyalty and gift cards in the future. 3. Google Wallet is a free app. 4. Google Wallet is separate from Google Checkout, and can be thought of as the brick-and-mortar counterpart to the online payment nature of Google Checkout 5. Google Wallet uses Near Field Communication to allow consumers to make contactless payments. 6. Google Wallet is currently field testing, but will become available to consumers this summer. 7. At first, Google Wallet will only be available on the Nexus S 4G by Google from Sprint, but Google will expand it to other devices/platforms in time. 8. Citi, MasterCard, First Data, and Sprint are launch partners for Google Wallet. 9. Google is also partnering with point of sale systems companies, including Verifone, Hypercom, Ingenico, and ViVOTech, to “introduce rich interaction between Google Wallet and the point of sale.” New Compete Data Shows Value in Facebook Pages Watch the Video Now 10. Google says it continues to partner with issuing banks, payment networks, point of sale systems, semiconductor companies, mobile handset manufacturers, mobile operators and merchants on Google Wallet-related elements. 11. Google is being sued by PayPal, who had two executives leave for Google. More on this here. 12. If you want to be notified about Google Wallet availability and product updates, you can give Google your email address here. 13. Google Wallet will support Citi PayPass eligible MasterCard credit cards and the Google prepaid card upon launch, but will support more in the future. 14. Users can pay with Google Wallet anywhere MasterCard PayPass is accepted. 15. Users can tap their phones on the merchant’s PayPass terminal to transmit payment details. 16. You don’t have to have a network connection to make a payment. 17. You can’t use Google Wallet if your phone battery is dead. 18. Currently, when a user adds their Citi MasterCard to Google Wallet, they can immediately spend up to $100, but to access their full line of credit, they’ll have to wait for Citi to send an activation code to enter into Google Wallet. 19. Google has very ambitious goals for Google Wallet, saying one day it may store your boarding passes, ID, and even keys. 20. Google Wallet will sync to your Google Offers (Google’s recently launched Groupon competitor, which it also intends to integrate into other Google products like Search, Latitude, Maps, and Shopper. 21. According to reports, there will be stickers that customers can put on any device that can hold the information for one card, and when tapped on an NFC device, would work with Google to handle payments. Security and Privacy Concerns 22. If your phone with Google Wallet is lost or stolen, Google says you should contact your credit card company for assistance, and that you should report your phone lost/stolen and basically take the same precautions you would have anyway. 23. Google Wallet will allow you to remove all cards from your phone by resetting it (which also removes all transaction data). 24. Google says it protects your payment credentials by storing them in a chip called the “Secure Element” that is contained within the Nexus S 4G, and is isolated from the phone’s main OS and hardware. Google does not say how this will be addressed with other devices. That’s probably for the manufacturers to determine. 25. Google does enforce a PIN number. 26. In terms of the possibility of a malicious app accessing your credit card, Google says, “Both the Android platform and the Secure Element are designed to prevent this from happening. Android enforces strict access policies so that malicious applications wouldn’t have access to data stored by Google Wallet. Even Google Wallet itself has very limited access to the Secure Element, and cannot read or write data from its memory. There are multiple levels of protection for data stored on the Secure Element and it is protected at the hardware level from snooping or tampering.” 27. Note that malware did infect Android apps as recently as March. 28. Google’s response to the possibility of someone getting close to your phone to read sensitive data, is, “The NFC antenna in your phone is only activated when the screen is powered on, and even if the antenna is on and in proximity of a reader, payment credentials can only be transmitted from the Secure Element to a payment terminal if you first enter your Google Wallet PIN.” 29. As far as being held liable for unauthorized transactions on credit cards store on Google Wallet, Google says the same rules apply as plastic cards. 30. Google says it does not “currently” receive data about products you purchase using Google Wallet. 31. Google Wallet does record locally on the phone the time of transaction and the credentials used to pay. There is an option to turn on a feature to record your location. 32. Google enables you to clear your transaction history from the main menu of the app. What Businesses Need to Know 33. To accept contactless payments, Google says your terminal must be ISO 14443 or 18092 standard (they will normally contain the universal contactless symbol). 34. You’ll need First Data’s latest systems to be able to accept Google Wallet (in addition to other contactless payments). 35. Merchants interested in participating can call First Data at 888-265-8147 (you can also request a call back here). 36. Merchants pay card-present rates for transactions made via Google Wallet (as opposed to card-not-present rates) 37. There are no additional charges. 38. Google does not take a cut of transaction fees through Google Wallet. 39. Businesses can request to become “SingleTap” merchants, where consumers can pay, redeem offers, and earn loyalty points. Merchants can integrate gift cards into Google Wallet. 40. Current SingleTap merchants include: American Eagle, Bloomingdales, The Container Store, Duane Reade, Einstein Bros. Bagels, Foot Locker, Guess, Jamba Juice, Macy’s, Noah’s, Peet’s Coffe & Tea, RadioShack, Subway, Toys R Us, and Walgreens. 41. Current Tap and Pay merchants include Coca Cola, CVS, Jack in the Box, Sports Authority, and Sunoco. 42. Merchants can always send questions about Google Wallet to the company at wallet-b2b@google.com. 43. Google says it will remain an “open commerce ecosystem” by supporting many payment instruments with the goal of creating virtual versions of all the plastic cards that exist today, establishing APIs that issuing banks can develop for, and APIs to enable transfer of offers, loyalty programs, receipts, etc. at the point of sale, and spreading Google Wallet to more mobile devices and platforms. “In terms of iPhone, RIM, Microsoft — we will partner with everyone,” Google VP of Commerce Stephanie Tilenius (named in the PayPal suit) is quoted as saying. Questions There are still plenty of unanswered questions. Rachel King at ZDNet posts some good ones, such as what happens when the battery dies? ATM cash advances? International travel? Google is clearly very serious about the future of this app (see those aspirations mentioned earlier). I’m guessing some of these things will be addressed in time. Do you think Google Wallet is a good idea? Tell us what you think.

In 1979, Canadians Chris Haney and Scott Abbott (along with business partners Ed Werner and John Haney) decided to create a game that combined their love of all things trivia and their basic competitive nature. Their company, Horn-Abbott, funded the initial production run of 1,000 pieces and sold them to retailers for $15.00 in 1981. At the time, $15.00 was by far the most expensive wholesale price for a board game. But a downright bargain when you consider the first pieces cost $75.00 each to manufacture. To the retailer’s surprise the game was a hit even at the heady price of $30.00 at retail.

Realizing that they lacked the funding to bring the game to its full potential, Horn-Abbott licensed Trivial Pursuit to Canadian game manufacturer Chieftain Products. Chieftain had a major hit in Canada in 1981 and contacted their American partner Selchow and Righter. Amazingly, Selchow and Righter analyzed the game and found that it was: a) too expensive to manufacture, b) it took over an hour to play, c) the best players had to have impressive knowledge of trivial subjects and d) they assumed adults didn’t play board games. Selchow and Righter passed, but Chieftain was persistent and in 1982 the game was introduced to America at the New York Toy Fair.

Initial sales were worrisome. However, through a solid PR campaign and great word of mouth, sales skyrocketed. Sales peaked in 1984 at 20,000,000 games in North America alone. It was the best of times and the worst of times for Selchow and Righter because in 1986, facing huge debt brought on by an abundance of inventory, Selchow and Righter was sold to Coleco. In 1989, Coleco filed for bankruptcy and the rights to Trivial Pursuit were acquired by Parker Brothers. Today Chris Haney and Scott Abbott’s little game has been made into over 30 “Editions.” It’s available in 26 countries, been translated into 17 different languages and has sold approximately 100,000,000 copies since its inception. Not bad for a game that almost wasn’t.

Believe it or not, the original Etch-A-Sketch was operated with a joystick. It’s true. The invention was the brainchild of Andre Cassagnes, a French electrician tinkering in his garage. Conceived in 1950, the drawing toy made use of a joystick, glass and aluminum powder. Dubbed the Telecran, the toy was renamed L’Ecran Magique, and made its debut at a European Toy Fair in 1959. Fascinated by the invention, American Henry Winzeler, founder and president of the Ohio Art Toy Company, licensed L’Ecran Magique and introduced it to America in 1960.

Amongst Winzeler’s innovations were replacing the joystick with two white knobs in the left and right corners of the screen. The idea was to make the toy look like the hot new adult toy…television.

As for how the knobs work, the two Etch-A-Sketch handles control a stylus that’s attached to strings. The stylus is designed to move up and down and left and right “etching” an image in the Aluminum powder that clings to the glass with static electricity. Amazingly, clever Etch-A-Sketch artists can maneuver the stylus to make what looks like curves and angles creating some spectacular pictures. In fact, the Ohio Art Etch-A-Sketch Gallery actually contains a “Hall of Fame.”

In 1943, Richard James, a naval engineer, invented the Slinky. A spring fell off of his workbench and began to “walk” across the floor. He figured he could make a toy out of it; his wife Betty agreed and she came up with the name Slinky. Introduced in 1945, Slinky sales soared (say that three times fast), but Richard James grew bored.

Despite his success, by 1960 Richard James was suffering from a serious mid-life crisis. But instead of falling for fast cars, dyed hair and liposuction, Richard James went a different route, and became involved with a Bolivian religious cult. He gave generously to the religious order and left his wife, six children and the company to move to Bolivia.

Stuck with the debts left by her husband and a company that desperately needed her leadership, Betty James took over as the head of James Industries. A marketing savant, Betty James was responsible for additions to the Slinky line including Slinky Jr., Plastic Slinky, Slinky Dog, Slinky Pets, Crazy Slinky Eyes and Neon Slinky. It was great for boys and girls around the world that Betty James didn’t suffer a midlife crisis. In 2001, she was inducted into the Toy Industry Hall of Fame, and perhaps even more laudably, her Slinky dog was forever immortalized in Disney’s Toy Story movies.

Standing beside his father, Frank Lloyd Wright and watching the construction of the Imperial Hotel in Tokyo, John Lloyd Wright was inspired. Interlocking beams in the hotel’s basement were designed to handle the little “earthquake problem” that the hotel could encounter. John Lloyd thought, “what if children had a toy version of those beams, shaped like notched tree trunks to build little log homes”?

The architect’s son followed through on his inspiration and the John Lloyd Wright Company manufactured and sold Lincoln Logs from the Merchandise Mart in Chicago. The sets even came with instructions on how to build Uncle Tom’s Cabin as well as Abe Lincoln’s log cabin. Introduced in 1916, the Lincoln Log construction and figure sets came in two sizes available for $2 or $3 dollars.

But here’s the strangest part: the naming of the toy wasn’t a tribute to Honest Abe. It’s a homage to his father. Here’s the scoop: Frank Lloyd Wright was born Frank Lincoln Wright, but he legally changed his name when his parents split. So, Lloyd Jones was his mother’s maiden name and Frank’s name change was to honor her.In any case, whichever Lincoln the toy was honoring, we’re pretty sure Honest Abe would have gotten a kick out of the little logs.
