    Examples of use:

    Finding a cookie and storing it in a variable �
    var name = Cookie.get("name");

    Setting a cookie that expires tomorrow �
    Cookie.set('visits', 1, new Date(new Date().getTime() + (24*60*1000)));

    Removing the above cookie �
    Cookie.remove('visits');




    Cookie.set('key','value',60); //expires 60 seconds from now
    Cookie.get('key'); //returns false if not found else the value stored in key
    Cookie.unset('key'); //removes key
