I can understand the reasons of any monk to be reluctant to show any code that is the result of many hours of hard work and I'm sure that the other monks think the same; in any case your reply sheds a lot of light on the subject and I think it points the OP in the right direction. In short, excelent advice, very illustrative to me, thank you.

Day 12 - Rest Day
Capri ended in a sunburn on my shoulders and a big hole in our budget. It was well worth it though. We spent the day inside the air conditioned apartment ... Sleeping, reading ... Only went out for some shopping and will go out later for some food at our fave restaurant ...
Day 7 - Pompeii
... filming for his next book. Train ride was great, got to see sites we'd never seen and this great band started playing great Italian tunes which really made the trip special. Toni was sitting taking in the sites when this English women stuck her face right into Toni's and said EXCUSE Me!!

The hotel is about a 20 minute drive from Sorrento and we will use a local mini bus to go back down the hill. A clear day forecast with a top of 27 so the sunscreen will be needed.

At each spot he would first explain about the site in Italian and then repeat in English - always gaining our attention with the most pompous British "Hello". It got old but he was humorous and provided some giggles for the group.

Hulk Hogan, Heather Clem, Bubba the Love Sponge, Gawker sex tape: Motion for tape removal denied
TAMPA - Hulk Hogan's attempt to strong arm gossip website Gawker.com into taking down the sex tape that has caused a media frenzy over the last few weeks has been denied by a federal judge.
Hogan, whose real name is Terry Bollea, filed suits against Heather Clem, Bubba the Love Sponge and Gawker Media last week after a sex tape featuring the former pro-wrestler was posted on Gawker's site. (http://bit.ly/QIx49H )
A motion for Temporary Restraining Order was filed to try and force Gawker to remove the video.
The tape showed Hogan having sex with Heather Clem, who is the ex-wife of Hogan's former best friend and radio personality, DJ Bubba the Love Sponge, in 2006.
Bollea said he was taped having sex with his former friend's wife without his knowledge nor his consent.
Bollea claims Bubba leaked the tape to Gawker Media, and he is now suing Bubba for $15,000 and Gawker for $100 million.
The judge said Bollea failed to show how the tape would cause him irreparable damage.
Another hearing has been set for November 8.

Sheyla and Sara (the waitresses) were very friendly to me, great service!!!! I met Federico at the front desk, he was nice to me and showed me how to get to Kmart (there is one really close to the hotel) The room was very clean and comfortable beds.

Trustworthy reviews are our priority. Businesses can't pay to change or remove reviews.
From the moment I met with Marian and Christine, I knew they were who I wanted to work with for my floral needs. I met with many floral companies, but clicked with them immediately. They are very easy to work with and very accommodating. I went through my vision and showed them some ideas on our first meeting. They showed me some concepts and helped me pull it all together. The initial bid was fantastic! Unfortunately, we had to cut the budget unexpectedly, so I went back to them a few weeks later and they were very nice and accommodating in helping me pull my budget down without sacrificing my vision and "cheaping" it out. They discussed flowers options that would save me money and spent time with me to make sure that I was happy with the end result. The day of the wedding, they had already set up everything by the time I arrive (I didn't even get to say hi) and it was GORGEOUS! They did a great job pulling everything together and making sure it was all perfect for me. I would highly recommend them to anyone for their floral needs. They are an absolute joy to work with and did absolutely everything they promised. Thank you Marian and Christine!
WOW! Our flowers were gorgeous! They exceeded my expectations. The ladies at Antebellum were creative, responsive, professional, and produced stunning arrangements and ceremony and reception floral decor. We had a budget issue, and Marian and Christine were understanding and helped us with an alternate proposal that provided us with three different price points and options to choose from. Overall, wonderful experience!
i absolutely loved working with Marian and Christine. These two lady's are a joy to work with. The work they done for my wedding ceremony and reception was outstanding. They are very prompt, courteous and they're work surely speaks volumes. Thank you for a great experience.
Marian and Christine are very very friendly, they always assist me with the warmest smile.
For my bouquet, I told them I love rose, hydrangea and orchid. And I like ivory and pink and I also mentioned to them that I wanted the bouquet to look romantic. Well, I have no idea what kind of magic did they use, but my bouquet was wayyyyy prettier than what I imagined. I was sooo in love with my bouquet and everybody keeps telling me that my bouquet is so pretty.
The bridesmaid's bouquets, the boutonnieres and the corsages were so pretty too. My bridesmaids told me that they kept trying to hold the bouquet all the time just because it was too pretty.
Antebellum Design, LLC in Dallas, Texas was the best! They provided the most beautiful flowers and professional service. Thank you for making our daughter\'s wedding more beautiful that we could ever have imagined! You cannot go wrong with this vendor at all. \r\n\r\nCheri Thompson
Marian was wonderful to work with. The flowers were the most beautiful I have ever seen and they were exactly what we discussed I wanted. She came in way under our budget so we were able to order extra flowers. They were one time professional and even set out extra decorations that I brought and wanted to have with there flowers. They assisted with the clean up at my venue and gave me no stress on my big day. They are also very nice to work with, Marian knows her flowers.
Workign with Antebellum was an absolute joy. From the first meeting to the actual wedding! They listened to my daughter's vision and provided exactly what she expected. Marian and her team were professional, kind, and even hand delivered the bridal portrait bouqet to the house. Sincerely, Anne
Rehearsal Dinner out of town. Worked with florist via email. Arrangements were beautiful and exactly what we wanted. Marian worked with us to come within budget.
ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS VENDOR! Both Marian and Christine were extremely easy and flexible to work with. They made my daughter's vision of her dream wedding become a reality! The flowers they chose were gorgeous! They were priced in the same range as most other floral vendors. Great to work with!!
Absolutely amazing vendor! Would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a florist! Explained my ideas and vision and they completely exceeded expectations! I didn't have to worry about anything at all!
Marian did SUCH a great job at my wedding helping everything come together perfectly. The flowers were absolutely gorgeous and went perfectly with the look that we wanted. Antebellum was great when preparing for the wedding and listening to the style that I liked and making suggestions/edits of what would look best and it all turned out perfectly. They were so nice to work with and really have a great eye for design.
From the moment I walked into Antebellum months before my wedding until the day everything came together on my wedding day, they were there making sure everything was EXACTLY how I wanted it. At first, I didn't really know what I wanted. I barely knew what colors I was going to be using. The ladies at Antebellum didn't skip a beat. They showed me designs, tried to get me thinking, and promised me that we could keep changing everything up until the last few weeks. Thank goodness for that! Less than a month before the wedding, I felt like I completely changed everything I wanted except for the colors. I decided I didn't want certain flowers, I wanted more greenery, I totally changed my bouquet from perfectly shaped to crazy loose and I was so afraid I was too late. I walked into the shop and told them what I was thinking. Marian and Christine were SO excited that I knew what I wanted that they didn't care that I was changing it up on them! They are so great about making sure every bride gets what she wants for her dream day. I couldn't be more happy with the way everything turned out. My floral was AAAAAAAAMAZING. I couldn't rate Antebellum any higher on the scale or I would have. I recommend them 100%.
My daughter and I interviewed several florists to use for her wedding. We had a palette and an idea of the types of flowers and "look" in mind; Marian at Antebellum Designs took those ideas and developed a design idea that was far above and beyond our expectations. She educated us on the seasonal availability of our preferred flowers and gave us choices of backups in case those flowers were not available.
The finished product was breathtakingly beautiful! When Marian delivered the flowers to the venue, I cried. Antebellum Designs will be my "go to" florist from now on.
This vendor listened to our needs, changed the proposal as many times as we changed or tweaked our requests. They were amazingly flexible, budget conscientious very responsive. Communicating with them was easy and everything was beautiful.
Marian and Christine were pleasures to work with! They helped turn my dream wedding into a fantasy. For the majority of the planning process, I lived out of town, but they were always so prompt in returning calls and emails and alleviating all of my concerns. They sat with me and went through what everything was going to look like, and they worked with me on price. They helped me stay under my price point and were always coming up with ideas on how to make everything even more beautiful while bringing down cost. At the wedding itself, all the guests commented on how beautiful all of our flowers and decor were. The flowers photographed beautifully and I still love looking at them in pictures.. I would recommend Antebellum Design to all my friends, and I look forward to using them for future events.
If I could give Marian & Christine 10 stars for professionalism & flexibility I would! They were absolutely wonderful to work with through the whole process, including my last minute change to move the ceremony & reception indoors due to weather. We received countless compliments on the flowers. My personal favorite was the heart-stopping arrangement of pink orchids at the entry. The colors were vibrant and the flowers were ultra-fresh. We were still able to enjoy them after we returned from the wedding! I can't say enough about how pleased I am!

When should we use the Singleton pattern and why?
The Singleton pattern is about to ensure a class has only one instance, and provide a global point of access to it.
Singleton pattern should be used when you want to enforce only one instance of a class be created in your app. This could be because:
Then designing such class as singleton make sense. For more refer singleton design pattern explained with c# .net example
More here...
Think of everything where more than one instance would be an error (inconsistence). THis could be an Application object (root object for a app) or a application wide securityManager etc. The singleton is just a way to enforce that at class can only have one instance.
When you don't want to create multiple instances of same type you need to go for singleton. But the same can be achieved if you use Static Classes. So the point here is it's not the only one instance but the control over instance creation, thus avoiding unneccessary consumption of precious resources.
As said the intention of a singleton pattern is to ensure that a single instance of a class is instantiated.
The singleton pattern is considered as one of the "bad" patterns in the GOF pattern catalog since the singleton leads to coupling in code and makes (unit) testing of code hard. The latter point is not 100% true in (most) dynamic/loosely typed languages because you can monkey patch code.
Let's take a look at coupling: Every code piece that uses the Singleton is coupled directly to the implementation of the Singleton. This is hard/impossible to mock and since Singletons are often used for infrastructure services like a database access layer the unit that you want to test is coupled to the concrete implementation of the database access layer. But for a unit test you do not want to hit the database, you want to have some mock data access layer. You end up in a situation where you ask yourself why you used the singleton pattern.
I'd recommend the singleton pattern only for "simple" software but as we all know software has a tendency to grow. To start simple and end complex after some years.
When only one instance from a class that is needed in the system.Since it has only one instance, so you can rigidly decide how the users can get access to it.
When you just need one instance from a class. One of the best example is the logger. You just need an instance of it.
When you want a bunch of different objects to be able to make reference to one single object. Maybe they want to all use the same PhysicsEngineDude or something... You don't want different objects having different physics models when they live in the same world!
If you have a situation when exactly one object is needed to coordinate actions across the system, then you can use this pattern. A good example of this is the Facade, that is, Facades can be implemented as singletons because often one Facade object is needed across the system.
But in general, it's usually a bad practice and should be avoided, one big reason is it greatly inhibits extensibility.
In theory: when you need to restrict the instantiation of an object to one instance. In practice: never.

I like to keep my personal and professional relationships separate. Since my FB is personal, I wouldn't have any coworkers or people that I employ in a professional capacity.
Children: You spend the first 2 years of their life teaching them to walk and talk, and the next 16 telling them to sit down and shut up.
Hmm Good thoughts...

As a teacher I say no. I dont even have a fb but if I did I would not want students parents as my friends.
Like pp said teachers are constantly being watched like hawks and it is hard to live a normal life. Its like the famous with paparazzi :) haha Honestly though I feel like I dont want to leave my house in too revealing a top, or too tight pants, etc because Im always worried of running into a student or their parents. Not that I usually wear revealing clothes but Im very chest heavy and it is a pain in the butt for work to always wear crew neck tshirts under every top to not be out there and then I have to do it during my day to day too. Ugh!
Sorry kind of went off on a tanget. Being a teacher is hard.

Does the massager come with straps that attach to it?

I think it's a great deal for the money. Would definitely recommend this model for someone looking for a vibration plate. I feel energized after using it and have been sleeping better....

Comparable to more expensive brands
This machine's vibration seems to be just as strong as any of the more expensive brands. However, because it lacks an arm rest, it does not target the upper body as much. You would have to shift and re balance your weight to feel the vibration in the upper half of the body. Although compact in size, it is a bit heavy and bulky. Aside from that, I would buy again.Read More
Great product
I've been using at least once a day if not twice and noticed toning in my legs almost immediately. I've seen some slight toning of my arms and stomach muscles. I wish I knew more about how to target these two areas, if anyone has any suggestions I'd love to hear them.Read More
only have had it five min so far so good
not knowing what to say i have had this only 5 min. but it got here fast in one piece box had some damage but so far the crazy thing turns on and it is quiet bigger then i thought but that is fine bout to give the one week test any way long story short i am happy with overstock and my purchase.Read More
good value
I had been using a full body massager at a local spa. They were charging $50 a session! This duplicates the machine exactly and for only pennies a day!!! It is also compact and easy to use. I'm so happy I found it.Read More
vibrating 'massage' machine
The first one I ordered arrived damaged, and Overstock was excellent to deal with as far as returning even this heavy, cumbersome item. Customer service was extremely helpful & sent UPS back to retrieve the broken item (the UPS driver was far less delightful...). That said, the item itself may very well be helpful to others, but I have to rate it based on my own personal experience, which has been a pretty negative one. This little machine really, really hurt my lower back.... to the point where I was seriously worried that I might end up in the ER if I used it again. The first time I thought it was just a coincidence, but the 2nd time it was actually worse - I could barely get myself out of bed, stand up, or walk the following day. I'm a regular exerciser that work outs every day, but apparently my lower back was not strong enough to handle a mid-to-higher speed on this little devil-machine. Use with caution, especially anyone that's ever had any sort of a back issue. Can I just say, ouch!?!Read More
So Glad I Bought It
This is really one of the best buys I've made in a long time. It relieves muscle pain, improves tone, and de-stresses. I was really skeptical & couldn't imagine how it would live up to what I've been reading online, especially since this is one of the cheapest models available. It's well made and I'm am so pleased. I had problems with chronic muscle pain and this is the only thing that has helped. It's so refreshing to use. Leaves me feeling clear-headed afterward as well. I don't know if it helps with weight loss, but for toning, it's incredible.Read More
Very Pleased with Mini Crazy Fit Massager
Three years ago I sat down cross legged to grease a zerk on my tractor and something popped in my lower back. I made numerous visits to chiropractors and massage therapists but nothing helped. It didn't bother much in the daytime but at night I could sleep only four or five hours and then my back would require me to get upl and move around. After getting on a whole body machine at a trade show and getting much relief I decided I needed one of these. I bought this one so I can take it in my motor home as we go south for the winters. The only pain now is when I first get up in the morning and just a few minutes on the Crazy Fit takes it away. I am no longer bothered with the lower back pain at night. The whole body vibration machine is a God send to me! There are 20 speeds and I get the best relief at number 10. I have used it for about a month now. Overstock had the best price I could find. $*** with free shipping.Read More
Helped my weak knee muscles.
I love this machine. My knees, which have been weak and unstable since I had a sports injury about 5 years ago, have been greatly helped after only a few uses. I have a sedentary office job and don't get much activity, and this "workout" has really produced noticeable results. If you're already in shape, I'm not sure you'd notice, but I have been a couch potato for 5 years. It is enervating and easy, and so quiet I can easily watch tv while using it. When my feet really hurt, it's great to just sit on a chair and rest my feet on it while it gives me a great feet/ankle/calf massage. I highly recommend this machine. Very sturdy and very quiet. It is also very heavy, so plan to keep it where you don't have to move it much.Read More
Questions & Answers
Hello Ladydi, this item does not feature straps. Thank you for shopping with us.
What brand is this and how high does the speed go?
Hello Ladydi, we are unable to disclose the manufacturer of some of our products; however, Overstock.com stands behind every product we sell. When necessary we can contact suppliers if a product issue arises. This massager has 16 speeds at runs at a frequency range of approximately 5.92 to 13.92 Hz. Thank you for shopping with us.
Why did you choose this product?
read it helps with circulation hoping it works
It has great reviews and I've wanted one for a long time. Hope it lives up to the hype.
I've wanted a vibration massager since first learning about them a few years ago. But until last week, I had never tried one. I haven't tried this particular one, but wanted a portable unit. All of the units I found on line had good reviews but my Overstock email for $20 off sealed the deal. Combined with the Club O rewards and a store credit the price became ridiculously low. So excited to give it a try. Thanks Overstock!
PT recommended it
Does this have auto programs that vary the speed?
Hello tedgwathmey, this does not have auto programs, this does have various different speeds though. Thanks for shopping with us!
What electricity current does it require? We are 220v here.
Hello madjaz1, the input power for this product is 110v. Hope this information was helpful. Thank you for shopping with us!
Is there a weight limit? Do you use this item standing or sitting?
You can stand or sit on the machine for usage. The weight limit for those standing on the unit is 250 pounds. If planning to sit and only rest legs on the machine, you can obviously be over the weight limit, as only part of their body will be on the machine. Thank you in assisting with our product.
How strong is the motor in the mini crazy fit massager?
We do not have exact information regarding the size of the motor but will be happy to research it.
hz? Are they adjustable?
The speed is adjustable.
What is the weight on this machine? I am traveling abroad for 2 months and want to make sure it will fit in my luggage and not go over the allowed weight. Thanks
Thank you for your inquiry. Since the shipping weight is 48 pounds, the actual weight would be just a few pounds less. Please feel free to contact us again with any further questions.

Brazil's Straw Hat project helps women leave abusive situations
A look at Switzerland's entrenched gun culture
19 Mar 2013 23:53 GMT | Politics, US & Canada, Latin America, Cuba, United States
The number of detainees on hunger strike at Guantanamo has nearly doubled since last week, with at least two prisoners hospitalised due to dehydration, officials at the military prison said.
Captain Robert Durand, Guantanamo communications director, confirmed on Tuesday that 24 prisoners were on hunger strike, up from 15 since March 11, AFP reported.
However, he rejected claims that the majority of detainees were involved in a more widespread protest.
"Today, Tuesday, March 19, 2013, we have 24 hunger strikers, with eight on internal feed," he said. "The reports of hunger-strike-related deteriorating health and detainees losing massive amounts of weight are simply untrue."
In recent weeks, lawyers returned from the US base in Cuba where the prison is located with accounts of clients weak from hunger and an angry standoff with guards.
The military had said no more than a handful of prisoners met the definition of being on hunger strike, which includes missing nine consecutive meals.
That figure rose to 14 on Friday, and then grew by seven over the weekend.
It has become the largest and most sustained protest at Guantanamo in several years, but Durand insisted there is no evidence to support reports of a strike involving most of the 166 men held there.
"The detainees certainly have the support of one another," Durand said on Monday. "But if it was 166, I would tell you it was 166. I don't have a reason to lowball or pad the numbers.''
'Detainees desperate'
A prisoner from Yemen, Yasein Esmail, told his attorney that he lost about 15 kg after striking for 29 days and was struggling to keep his balance, according to notes taken by the lawyer, Washington-based David Remes, during a March 5 visit.
"Many of the detainees are desperate," Esmail told Remes. "They feel like they're living in graves."
Omah Farah, from the Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR), said several prisoners in Camp 6 where there are 130 prisoners had lost between 18 and 22 kg and most had lost between 9 and 13 kg.
Farah accused camp authorities of seeking to downplay the strike, which began on February 6 to protest searches carried out by prison guards.
Detainees have accused guards of "desecrating" Qurans during the searches.
Camp officials have strongly denied any mistreatment of the religious books.
'Attracting attention'
Another apparent factor in the protest is the fact that the US has largely stopped transferring and releasing prisoners because of security restrictions imposed by Congress and the administration of President Barack Obama.
Durand said there had been no changes in the way searches are conducted.
He said Qurans are searched for contraband by Muslim translators, not guards, and are treated in a respectful way.
The protest is simply a way to attract attention, he said.
"They have sort of fallen out of the public view and most of the legal issues have been settled," Durand said. "If you want to burst back into the media then you have to start complaining about either Quran abuse or detainee abuse or deteriorating conditions."

Happiness is the perfect shade of blush!
Gorgeous isn't it? It's on the top of my must have list! Just the name makes me wriggle in excitement!
Bare Minerals Fruit Cocktail Blush
As promised a video blog of some of my stash 😉
Ok That's it for now! I'll be back tomorrow with the rest of my stash 😉 Four videos in one day should keep you guys plenty busy!!!!!!!
Ah snowcake…
How I love thee! Let me count the ways!
You smell so sweet and lovely! Truly if innocence were to smell it would be the sweet scent of snowcake!
I've stocked piled. When I say stock piled, I MEAN stocked piled, snowcake perfume when it was released as a Limited Edition fragrance two years ago! I've enough snowcake perfume to last me three lifetimes 😉
If every someone were to ask me if I had a signature scent this would be what I'd choose! It's such a gorgeous blend of cherries and almond and vanilla and just yummmmmmm!
Every year around November snowcake pops up on Lush's website and for about a blessed month of good cheer we are able to purchase her and stow her away for the many months she is not available for purchase!
What Lush Says About Her:
If we didn't bring out a new batch of Snowcake every Christmas we'd probably be chased all the way to the North Pole by irate Lush customers. This almond scented, creamy smooth, gloriously luxurious body soap is such a favorite that we were forced into making a hand cream with the same perfume (Smitten, since you asked). If you've not tried it before, don't miss your chance. Once Christmas has passed it won't be back until next year.
More of what Lush has to say about her (excuse me why I comfort myself with their words):
Snowcake, rich and creamy with a scent of perfumed marzipan, is getting to be an essential in the Lush Christmas tradition. It's back again for the Christmas holidays but if you're one of our devoted Snowcake fans, make sure you get enough to last all year. It's beautifully calming and soothing; rose and styrax are gentle and softening for your skin; just what you need when you're feeling tired and emotional (I must say I'm feeling very emotional and she's quite the comfort).
What I say about her:
I'm not the only person that goes absolutely wild for this creamy bar of soap! She has quite the cult following! Last year (and this year again) we were briefly introduced to her in body powder form! Again, I have stocked pile enough body powder to last me into the next 50 years of my life!
At this point you are probably wondering why I am going on and on about her!
This morning, I sadly cut into my last chunk of snowcake soap! Quite depressing moment! I need a hug! I normally buy an entire slab every single year and it lasts me well into November but this year I gave so much away to friends that I have none left for myself! Oh sadness! Woe! Sigh!
What shall I do with myself until November? I have to make the chunk I have at the moment last well into the summer and fall! I cut my last slab into two pieces and tucked some away to take with me to the UK! I refuse to use it before that!
Such agony….pain…..sadness….cue the music!
I'll make do.
I'll temporarily amuse myself with Smitten until I can purchase my beloved again!
It's going to be a long, hard road but I can do it!
The good news is I still have about 10 Christmas Pud Bath Bombs and about 10 Snow Festival Bubble Bar Slices so at least I can bath in Snowcake! Weeeeeeeeeee!
I can use a hug anyway though…keep 'em coming people!
What does one do when sadness beckons and sleep eludes them?
Blog about beauty of course!
The following entry is from a blog I did ages ago on Live Journal but I've revamped it for My Space! At the moment I am not feeling my normal self so I'm entitled to a mark up and edit of this very blog. It gives me something to do with my mind less it wander into my heart.
Givenchy. Ah the posh richness of Givenchy's color collections! I guess I can rightly be called a newbie to Givenchy's make-up line as I really only started collecting it this past fall. A friend brought me a blush as a gift and this started my downward spiral into the expensive habit of tracking down and purchasing new Givenchy palettes! Yes I do curse her everyday after!
Givenchy's line is probably one of the only make-up lines I've seen sell out so quickly! It's not sold in many places and it's difficult to track down the items when they do finally pop up somewhere! I'm fool enough to call every Sephora from 42nd Street to Times Square trying to locate one palette! Online you say? Impossible! Sells out in a snap!
The spring line was probably my favorite thus far!
The Arty line is bright, bold, and colorful as all hell! I'd love to say that I have the entire collection but I somehow mustered up enough willpower to puchase the blush and the eye palette only! It seemed too ridiculous to actually spend all that kind of money on the entire line! Maybe when I win the lotto! I'll whisper this really low but I also didn't spend the money on it because I just felt I wasn't in the same league as the collection! Hell you have to be drop dead, outstanding gorgeous to wear make-up this lovely and I'm not entirely in that catagory! (Jesus I hope no one important is reading this! I won't mention any names but he's likely going to bloody snuff me out for saying that I am not gorgeous! Lucky am I he thinks so ya? Ok ok ok back to the make-up).
Since fall I've come across some great palettes they have done but by far this has been the best of the lot!
If you have some spare change rattling around in your pockets and you really want to purchase something different, I highly recommend either the Arty Blush or the Arty Eye palette! Or both! Oh my! These are too amazing products that Givenchy has outdone themselves on!
My tiny lot from the Arty Color Collection:
Cheers to Givenchy! High hopes we see new, exciting colors come the winter!
It should take me till that time to find the newest palette released for the summer!
I'm off to put out signs in the neighborhood! "Have you seen this palette?" Reward offered for any information regarding its where abouts!
There's nothing I love more than tasty lipbalms!
When I want something sweet and tasty for my lips I look no further then Vintage Sister's website! Truly the site is a feast for the lips!
I can't really recall how long I've been purchasing balms from Vintage Sister but it's been quite a few years and I'm never disappointed in the quality, selection, and customer service!
During Season change and Holidays they offer a tin of lip balm trios and this summer like any other year they are offering a cute tin of yummie treats for your lips!
This year's trio is entitled Bahama Mama and includes Blue Hawaii, Island Delight, and Strawberry Daiquiri! Oooooo! My lips are tingling already!
If you aren't interested in any of the tasty summer treats you might want to try a few of my personal favorites!
Mmmm tastes just like the real thing without the calories of course!
Sadly it's not available year round but it'll be back for Halloween and Thank God for that! I'm running way low!
Possibly my favorite of all my Vintage Sister balms! I'm always reaching for this!
Such a classic one!
Sounds twisted but it's yummie as sin!
At $3.95 each you can afford to enjoy all the flavors and $12 for a tin of trios will get you a nice healthy indulgence for your lips!
Vintage Sister isn't all about balms! They do some very cute bath and body items as well! Personally I haven't tried anything but the balms and believe me they are worth it plus your husband or boyfriend will thank you 😉

This is lovely soup! Which, I have to admit worried me a little because of the lack of garlic. Actually, nothing seems missing, so I will make this without garlic next time, too. I substituted a hefty Japanese scallion for the leek, didn't have green beans, but did add a little green bell pepper. I also had to use dried basil instead of fresh. But I'm delighted with the outcome. Thank you very much for sharing this recipe with us. I also should have added that I used homemade turky stock.

Oklahoma: A state of various cultures
Long before Oklahoma became a state, it was a land of cultural diversity, but the cultures represented were few. Much has changed over the past five or so centuries. Now, Oklahoma is home to nearly 4 million people who claim hundreds of cultures, latest available U.S. Census figures show.
The largest culture representations in Oklahoma include: white, American Indian, black, Hispanic, English, Irish, German, Italian, Asian Indian, Vietnamese, Scottish, French, Dutch and Middle Eastern. There are many more that have some representation within the state. The largest population gains in Oklahoma are in the Hispanic population, which increased nearly 70 percent from 2000 to 2009, census officials said. This population has surpassed the growth of non-Hispanic populations in nearly every county and overall statewide, according to new census estimates. In Oklahoma County, the Hispanic population increased 67 percent. For many counties in Oklahoma, the overall population has decreased, while the Hispanic population has increased. "Oklahoma is a good place to live and raise a family" said David Castillo, executive director for the Greater Oklahoma City Hispanic Chamber of Commerce. "The Latino community in central Oklahoma is thriving," Castillo said. The number of Hispanic Youths in Oklahoma has increased by more than 32 percent since 2000, while the numbers of non-Hispanic youth has decreased by 2.6 percent. By 2020, it is estimated, at least a quarter of Oklahoma's children will be Hispanic. "When I was growing up in grade school there was only a handful of Hispanic," said Castillo "You had to speak English back then." The land now called Oklahoma was sparsely populated during the 1500s to 1700s. There were American Indian tribes who roamed the Prairie, European explorers looking for undiscovered riches, traders and trappers, and those who simply chose to live in the wild. The Indian population grew when tribes were forced into the area by white settlers. Many people settled in Oklahoma illegally after it was designated "Indian Territory" for the relocated tribes. The government opened up the western parts of the territory by holding six land runs between 1889 and 1895. People known as "Boomers" wanted the rich lands to be opened up for settlement by non-Indians. As a result, this attracted settlers from throughout the nation and from other countries like Poland, Germany and Ireland. During and after the Civil War, there were more blacks making their way to the frontier. Cultural Awareness Oklahoma KnowIt
