"Nice stay"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Oct 18, 2010
Stopped here while traveling through the area with wife and 18-month old. Probably among the best hotels at this rate tier that I've stayed at. Breakfast was good (waffles, toast, juice, cereal, coffee, biscuts+gravy), room was clean, AC unit was pretty quiet compared to other hotels, staff was kind. Slight odor in the hotel but couldn't quite identify it--perhaps from covering up the smell from smoking rooms? We'd definitely stay here again.

Staff very helpful and niceGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Very Clean"
Located behind another hotel is the only down side of this hotel.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Very Impressed"
The hotel is clean, updated, and warm and inviting! I was very happy staying there, and would do so again. The only thing I was disappointed in, is that I was only there for one night! I forgot my toothbrush, and they gave me one. I had room service which while good, they didn't get my order right. That was really the only thing that was slightly wrong. […] The breakfast the next morning was good although I didn't have time to eat much. I would recommend this hotel with no problem! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"A very pleasant stay"
Extremely hospitable and accomodating staff who made me feel extremely welcomeGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Excellent Hotel"
We stayed at this hotel from 3 days from Thursday- Sunday. We had 2 adjoining rooms that were connected by a doorway. Overall experience with Hilton Garden Inn Joplin was excellent! The staff was quick, helpful, and very courteous. Every staff member we encountered was very pleasant. The interior and exterior of the hotel is immaculate. We had small […] children ranging from 2 - 9 years old and they had a great time especially at the pool and hot tub. The hotel has 4 floor and elevators were quick every time we used them. Check in/out was seamless and couldn't be more efficient. A+ rating on my stay. Definitely recommend. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"Loved the mattress!"
We stayed here for our wedding night - the room was perfectly clean and the bed was so comfortable! SO much so that we are planning to get one of these adjustable mattresses for our home! The buffet for breakfast was nice. Good atmosphere. The property was set a little back from the main road so it was quiet. Would stay here again without question.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"everything is good except the beds"
I think this is a great hotel with one exception. the mattresses are very uncomfortable for me. My girlfriend feels the same way. It could be just us.

"Fantastically friendly and helpful staff"
After an extremely long and trying day I showed up here very early Saturday morning to ask what time my room would be ready. The people at the front desk, Julie and Leighton (?) were so kind and understanding. they found me a vacant room and got me settled in right away. We came down for breakfast and I was amazed at how friendly and caring all the […] staff were. Food was gladly prepared to order, the buffet was clean and well stocked and my coffee cup stayed full. The room was spotless, and the bed was one of the most comfortable beds I've ever slept in. I would strongly recommend this hotel to anyone considering visiting this area. Outstanding job!

"Joplin Hilton Garden Inn on vacation"
Spacious room. Clean and quiet. Except for the air conditioner. Sounded like a humming freight train. I had to look out the window to see if we were near a train track.Genuine Expedia guest review
"An Icy Stay in Joplin"
I arrived on Wed, Feb.20, expecting that the following day would be a normal workday...it wasn't. As all of you will remember, Thurs. Feb 21 saw an ice storm blanket the area. Work was out. The entire hotel staff not only made it in to work themselves under terrible conditions, but did everything they possibly could to make the guests feel comfortable […] & very welcome, especially Rhoda in the restaurant. After that experience, when I'm in the area, I will definitely stay in that hotel. Thanks to your entire staff. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
The ONLY problem I had was a group of people up stairs continued to stomp and slam doors from 8:30pm until a little after 12 midnight. It was ridiculous! The pool appeared to have oil floating on top of the water, as if the filter was not working properly. The rooms were Very clean, Staff was very nice and professional. Room service food was hot and […] fresh. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"just right for business"
The hotel was excellet. Great rooms, seervice was freindly. Only negative was location. Odd location (behind another hotel) and a mile off rangline (main road through Joplin). Overall great.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great hotel, yucky toilet"
Our toilet had not been cleaned when we checked in. Other than that, everything and everyone was great.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Joplin October 6 2012"
Very pleasant. Great breakfast brunch at a reasonable price. The staff was very friendly and helpful.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Wow! No better place to be!!"
We stayed here for the Four States Truck Show and it was a hop and a skip from where we needed to be. ALL of the hotel staff were courteous and willing to help if necessary. The room was nice and accommodating and having a whirl pool tub in the room was a plus!! The best part was definitely the bed!! Each side had a dial to adjust the softness and firmness […] settings and it was undoubtedly the best sleep I've gotten away from home...will definitely be returning here!! Oh and a side note, their breakfast was very tasty!! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Cookies and milk"
My stay was fantastic , the staff were very nice and polite , it felt like they know me as a close friendGenuine Hotels.com guest review
Very happy with our stay, hotel facility was excellent. We were there overnight for the MS150 bicycle ride, and the hotel staff took the initiative to call the manager to see if they could have breakfast at 5:30 for us instead of the normal 7:00 AM so we could eat before we started the second day of our ride at 7:00 that morning. The staff at this Joplin […] location gets a huge GOLD STAR! Very impressive. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Hard to find due to it being behind another hotel."
Staff was great. They had cookies in the lobby for check in. Our room was nice and comfortable, very clean. Enjoyed the indoor pool and work out room. The breakfast buffet was great! We've stayed at this hotel in another city and will always choose this chain if available.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Meets Expectations..."
Very clean, cook-to-order breakfast was good, staff was courteous, close to restaurants, easy to get to the highway, pool was a little cool but very clean.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great hotel, good location"
good visit at hotel. Found cleaning staff in morning noisey.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Cleaning in a Hurry!"
The staff was nice, however, after being in the room for a few hours, I went into the bathroom to find long black hair on the floor and sink. The shower had a used bar of soap in it as well as the shampoo bottle half empty. I was offered a free breakfast for the trouble. I emailed Hilton on this but with know reply. I don't think Paris cares!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Comfortable and clean..."
I've stayed at several Hilton Garden Inns when travelling, and like the consistency in comfort and cleanliness. The room is large, the hvac worked great, and we enjoyed the large 2 person jacuzzi tub as we had upgraded for a minimal price increase. The snack station in the lobby was well stocked and surprisingly affordable. The only detail I liked less […] than other Hilton Garden Inns was the lack of free continental breakfast. While travelling, it's nice to get a quick, hassle-free bite on the way out to the next destination. This particular hotel charges around $10 per person for their breakfast, which was barely better than continental. (Looked like they had eggs and maybe potatoes) But that's a personal preference, and wouldn't stop me from staying again. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
4 women from the office stayed at the hotel they were there for habitat for humanity and work for the week with local people. They had all good thin s to say about it. Very comfortable loved the breakfast . Your staff was so nice and friendly !!!!!!!Thank you for a great stay!Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Hilton Garden: Excellent Accomodations"
Great location (can walk to many restaurants). The room was very comfortable, modern, and clean. Loved the adjustable settings on mattress. Having a fridge and microwave are essential. Staff were attentive. Definitely would stay again.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Wonderful Experience"
Very impressed with every aspect of the the hotel and the stay. Unfortunate that there is another Hotel being built right in front of them, so it is a little hard to see from the road. Would definetily stay there again if I find my self in JoplinGenuine Expedia guest review
"Joplin Hilton Motel"
My wife and I stayed last Sat. night in the Hilton in Joplin,Mo. In the last 10years I have stayed at Hilton Motels in many parts of the United States. I enjoyed the stay at Joplin. The people manning the info dest were polite and very helpful. I was offered free cookies, hot fresh coffee and a general relaxing atmosphere. I would recommend this Hilton […] to friends and upon return to Joplin will probably stay there again. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Hilton Garden Inn - Joplin"
My 10 year old grandaughter had never stayed in a Hotel and I wanted to take her some placle nice that was not real expensive. I picked just the right place. She was in awe and had a wonderful time swimming in November. The resturant was excellent and the staff was great. They made over her and made her first hotel stay one to remember.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"bad stay"
Poor parking, second day someone hit back corner of my new truck, in middle of the day & didn't leave message. When I finally got the desk clerk, they said, gee i guess I could call police have them fill out report, we dont have any outside securty or camers. It was correctley parked by the frount door of Hotel! I had other friends staying in Joplin […] also, Radison and the Dury is nicer facility and better locations. I have always counter on Hilton for quality but after this I wont stay at Hilton again! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Pet-free & restaurant"
I have asthma & must be in a pet free hotel. I didn't have a car so the on site restaurant was essential. The breakfast was expansive with made to order omlettes & eggs as you like them--both perfectly prepared. The pool & workout room were terrific & not busy even though it was spring break. The room was spacious with an adjustable mattress & ergonomic […] chair. Tons of outlets! Micro & 'fridge-- It was surprising how terrific the restaurants were.

Remember Me
Marsha Bradley (right) will soon retire after 40 years of service in the local insurance business. Pictured with Bradley (from left) are coworkers Angela McCausley and Annette McGraw at Yazoo Insurance Agency. By JAMIE PATTERSONManaging EditorMarsha Bradley will retire next month after 40 years of service to the community at Yazoo Insurance Agency. Bradley, a Yazoo County native, has been a familiar face at the local insurance company. She will be greatly missed by the staff and customers she has worked with for the past four decades. "As many wise men would tell you, 'anyone can be replaced,'" said Bill McGraw, company owner. "But no one can replace 40 years of professional excellence. We wish Marsha the best of luck, good health and good fortune in her retirement."-------for the rest of the story see The Yazoo Herald printed edition or subscribe to the Digital Edition.----------
Yazoo resident Mary Houston was glad to see the city tear down a dilapidated home next to her property, but she says the mess left behind has been an even bigger nuisance. By JAMIE PATTERSONManaging EditorA Yazoo City woman said she is disgusted with a vacant lot next to her home that is covered with trash and rats from a recent demolishment. Mary Houston, who lives on Madison Street, said the city has fallen down on its job of cleaning up the remains from a house that was demolished a few weeks ago. "The city is not doing their job," Houston said, looking over the vacant lot. "People need to be aware of this."The house that was formerly located on the lot had been an eyesore for several years. Extensions and other accommodations were made to the property owners in an effort to clean up the property. But city leaders put their foot down a few months ago and ordered for the home to be demolished.-------for the rest of the story see The Yazoo Herald printed edition or subscribe to the Digital Edition.----------
State Sen. Briggs Hopson updated the Yazoo Lions Club Thursday on highlights of this year's Legislative session. He was the guest of Lion Barry Bridgforth.By JAMIE PATTERSONManaging EditorSen. Briggs Hopson visited the Yazoo Lions Club this week to discuss a few changes and other proposals within Legislation. From district lines to education to finances, Hopson covered a wide spectrum during an informative presentation to local club members. RedistrictingOne major change within Yazoo City in the near future is redistricting lines. The county is currently carved up among three state senators, including Hopson, Buck Clarke and Kenneth Wayne Jones. That will change to two senators, District 22 and District 23, in the upcoming elections.The District 23 seat, held by Sen. Jones, will move out of Yazoo County.-------for the rest of the story see The Yazoo Herald printed edition or subscribe to the Digital Edition.----------
Carol Jean Ellis (center) with Peggy Matthews, overseer of Latter Rain in Belzoni, and Mayor McArthur Straughter at the grand opening of Taste-A-Vision on Broadway.By JAMIE PATTERSONManaging EditorThen the Lord answered me and said, Write the vision and make it plain on tablets, that he may run who reads it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, it will not tarry.Habakkuk 2:2-3The Bible verse echoed through the dining room only moments before Carol Jean Ellis welcomed the community into her new restaurant. Working on a vision Ellis says was provided to her by God, it only seemed right to name her new business endeavor, Taste A Vision. Not only is Yazoo's newest business a restaurant, but Ellis uses her eatery as a place to share the Gospel and bring others closer to the Lord. Waiting and watching, she is there for anyone who simply wants to hear the Good News.-------for the rest of the story see The Yazoo Herald printed edition or subscribe to the Digital Edition.----------

The second-oldest member in the United States Senate says he wants another go-round come 2016.
"I'm planning on running for reelection," Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, said in an interview with a local television program that will air Sunday morning.
The six-term Senate Republican told Iowa Public TV that while he's not devoting much time to laying the groundwork for another campaign, he does intend to seek a seventh term. First elected to Congress in 1974, Grassley said his history of public service speaks for itself and that he believes his Hawkeye State constituents will vote for his record, not against his age.
"I'm a firm believer, if you do a good job with what you're doing, people recognize it," Grassley said, "and the future takes care of itself."
Age certainly hasn't blunted the 80-year old's critique of the Obama administration.
Asked what he thought of President Barack Obama's decision not to negotiate on the debt ceiling, Grassley said the president hasn't demonstrated he's willing to be a "real political leader" and work with the GOP. The lawmaker said Obama would sooner come to the bargaining table with Syrian President Bashar al-Assad than with congressional Republicans.
"Every day you hear him on television saying he wants to negotiate with Assad," Grassley said.
The program's moderator, Dean Berg, asked Grassley, "Did I hear you say that President Obama is more likely to talk to foreign dictators than he is Republicans?"
"The answer to that is yes," Grassley answered. "He's not even talking to Democrats in Capitol Hill."
Grassley would be 89 at the end of a seventh term.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein is currently the oldest serving member in the Senate. The California Democrat is 87 days older than Grassley.

Paul McCartney Calls for Meat-Free Mondays
Sir Paul McCartney and his family launched a campaign urging people to reject meat and go vegetarian once a week to help combat climate change.
Together with his daughters Stella and Mary, his son James, and other A-list stars including Yoko Ono, Chris Martin, and Sheryl Crow, the former Beatle wants everyone to give up meat on Mondays.
The aim of the campaign, called Meat Free Monday, is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the world's livestock population, thought to be a major cause of global warming.
According to the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization, meat production is responsible for 18% of greenhouse gas emissions. By simply cutting down your meat intake, the laws of supply and demand kick in and together we can reduce the amount of meat in demand. Thus, lowering production and reducing greenhouse gases! We think this is a really great way to make an easy change that will have an enormous impact on our planet if everyone takes part.
Visit www.supportmfm.org to support the campaign and learn more.

Great work and we actually expanded to bear the lending capacity lower chiefs during but.
Height of the Great Recession we just went through bull a lot of companies -- their doors open because of what we -- through the SBA.
-- his own trumpet music in the background I guess in your present you can.
I -- here and it is that no and it went that was the president calling into a Florida -- -- -- this -- but my next guest is into a hip.
To what the big guys really been up to restaurant owner mark on -- -- His businesses are benefiting from the president's tax policy -- the small business administration.
And I guess he would not necessarily founder pick the president not.
If you heard the same as a pizza -- might drop and I don't know whether Marcos and you're not buying missile.
Feel the love to small business from the press.
Now look beyond I'm not seeing that at the level that it's being described -- my feeling it.
There are a lot of tax credits tax incentives that that are being proposed then and touted.
But at the end of the day to me it's actually quite simple -- if you let the the entrepreneur lowers the small business owners like myself across America.
Keep more of their own money.
They will in turn go out and make the investment sparked -- new businesses that employ the people in our towns and cities all across this country.
But it will be that simple -- -- the president says -- -- -- -- again and again speaker to speaker.
The Democratic Convention last week Marco is that if we go back to the policies like low taxes low work.
Regulations of the Bush Administration.
Will just relive those those those times what would you make about.
What -- sometimes it's it's better for government actually step out of the way and not do anything.
And unity in this you know that's a brilliant point Marco because that number I'm not kidding you.
Sometimes a better part of dollars is nothing.
-- -- -- -- -- Right and it's it's the -- -- that wake up at 5 o'clock in the morning it's the small business owners that works seven days a week.
If you let them keep more of their money they will go out there -- create the opportunity.
Even if you look at specific policies you hear about SBA loan fees -- -- -- borrower if you eliminate those SBA loan fees I promise you -- going to take that savings and I'm gonna go out and do things like maybe by an additional bread machine.
And when I do that.
I actually -- the hire someone to work that machine so that's how you take unemployment don't -- let businesses like myself all across the towns and cities in America.
Keep more of their money they won't go out and make your property investments grow their business partner of businesses and in -- continue to drive horror com.
Well here's -- -- over -- you because you know this business there have far better than I do what's happened on this woman's front.
The argument that I heard the -- with a -- -- -- administration that it lends money when banks aren't.
It's the bulwark of support for guys like you when banks haven't been so thank god for the SBA thank god for this administration.
Doing what it's doing to support it and I guess by extension you.
Does that through.
It is the SBA is crucial what.
A going along that if the SBA it's so important and small businesses like myself -- benefit from -- and G certainly not borrowing from the SBA will -- shouldn't that -- even greater of the focus.
From our politicians our government.
We're making with so much sense -- we're gonna keep your comments on the but the panelist who is what do you most want to see at a governor do you let your druthers I guess -- be.
Cooler on the regulations.
Are cool it on the taxes but we kind of do my own thing.
That and anything that the government does does really needs that needs to be immediate and direct.
So it's not providing 88 tax credit.
That on the seat over a few years if I make -- expenditure it's it's having policies.
-- an incentives in place that are immediate and Iraq.
Parts -- from the if the president -- does get reelected.
Are you worried or do you think you know you've got such a successful and keen business mind you'll overcome anything.
Well you know I I think there's there's the great aspect of of the American dream and the American work ethic is that there.
Regardless of who's in office I will continue to wake up at 5 in the morning and work and so will so many other small businesses.
All across this country.
And we will continue to drive -- but that doesn't mean that we can't.
Continue to look for ways to to improve our situation improve the economic situation to our cities and -- Well put mark on a TV thank you very very much for having.

The Easiest Cheese Cookie Recipe Ever
I used Eesti juust aka 'Estonian cheese' - a cheese similar to the Danish Havarti cheese which is available pretty much everywhere in the world, I believe. But I imagine most semi-hard cheese would work.
Easy Cheese Crisps/Cheese Cookies
(Imelihtsad juustuküpsised)
cheese, coarsely grated
caraway seeds, optional
Take small heaps of grated cheese and place them on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper. Leave about 5 cm/2 inches between cookies, as they spread during baking.
Sprinkle some caraway seeds on each 'crisp', if you wish. I really love the taste of caraway seeds and find the flavour mingles wonderfully with cheese, but you could use cumin seeds or paprika powder or chilli flakes or anything else you like.
Place in the middle of pre-heated 180 C oven and bake for 5-7 minutes, until the cheese has melted and turned slightly golden on the edges. Remove the baking sheet from the oven (overbaked cheese is nasty and bitter, so be careful not to bake the crisps/cookies for too long!) and leave to cool. The cheese crisps harden slightly when cooling.
Serve as an accompaniment to a glass of hõõgvein/mulled wine/glühwein/glögg, or even regular wine or beer.
I bet my dad would appreciate these in the sauna :-)

Sellised juustukrõpsud on väga dekoratiivsed. Ma vahel pidulikumaks puhuks olen teinud mõnest "parmesanilisest" ja soojalt tainarulli peal kaarjaks või muffinipanni põhjadel kausjaks painutanud.

Caruso 30 Molecular Ion Steam Hairsetter
LisaHairBlondeFine or Thin HairWorks Better Than Hot Curlers But Doesn't Last Near As Long As PromisedI first off just have to start by saying that I waited over 3 weeks for my order as one item was back ordered. It was a bit disappointing to be ready to get the product, only to place my order and that they didn't expect it in stock for 2-3 weeks. If it was longer they would cancel my order. I know this doesn't pertain to the product itself, but felt it was part of my experience.
I read all the reviews and thought I'd found my solution for my extremely fine, thin and stock straight hair. I was a bit disapointed.
I love the idea of this product to have curls that last until your "next wash". It claims to set in the curls so strongly that they don't come out until you shampoo.
I have been using the product for about 2 weeks now, and I would still have to use it every day. As with all products my curls come out very cute right when I undo them, but within an hour they have dropped considerably, and within a few hours, only waves are left.
I have extremely fine, thin hair too. And I bought an extra pack of the petite rollers. So my whole head was done in petite and a few small rollers to get tight, springy curls.
The first time I used it, I steamed the rollers way too long and my hair didn't dry nearly in time. When it says 3-4 seconds it means it. If you steam too long you'll have to leave them in forever for the hair to dry underneath and have any curl.
I've tried steaming the shield and not steaming the shield with no difference. I've tried the bigger and smaller rollers and the release of curl happens with all of them. I've tried adding more setting time, using a hair dryer to help "set" the curl all with no difference to the curl disappearing. I even tried the spray styling gel on each lock of hair as I rolled it. Tried hairspray, and no hairspray after. No difference.
My other issue with it is for some reason my hair gets stuck around the foam rollers and can become very tangled and difficult to remove. Changing the amount of hair on the roller didn't seem to help, there still seems to be stray hairs and small locks of hair that become really tangled.
While as I mentioned in my title, the curls last somewhat longer than hot curlers or a curling iron (for me those last 15 minutes) but still not even a whole day. I am a bit disappointed as I really thought this was the product I had been searching for as it had all these great reviews.posted Sep 8, 2013Link to this post -
JudithNYCHairDark BrownRelaxed HairChemically Treated HairBye Bye Heat DamageThis steamer is a lifesaver! Voluminous bouncy curls all day long!! It is easy to use, works quickly (curls usually set in 5-10 mins), and curls last all day. I very rarely use my flat or curling irons anymore, which saves me from heat damage and was a huge selling point for me getting a Caruso. Buy it. You'll fall in love.posted Aug 18, 2013Link to this post

PLUS YOU CAN CREATE DIFFERNT TYPES OF CURLS WITH THE SIMPLE EASY TO FOLLOW INSTRUCTION BOOKLET THAT IS INCLUDED.posted May 10, 2013Link to this post
MindyHairDark BrownNormal HairFine or Thin HairAwesome!You would think these steam rollers don't curl well because they are not hot at all. I have fine hair (a lot) and it's normal/to possibly dry depending on the day but I've been lazy on weekly deep conditioning so this is most likely my fault :D
I have tried them on day old hair, dry hair, and also hair that's still a little wet after the shower and the curls are very curly each time.
Only thing I have to say is if you are looking for more natural curls then you definitely want to use this with longer hair. My hair is a little over shoulder length and I have Shirley Temple hair after leaving them in my hair for 11-12 minutes.
I'm sure there's a way to make the curls more relaxed either leaving the rollers in for a shorter amount of time or separating the curls with your hands (although with my hair when I do this it gets seriously pouffy and frizzy). I don't use any hair products while styling expect for some heat protection spray before blow drying and my hair starts to die down around 7 hours. However I should add I don't care about my hair once it's done. I take naps .. walk in the rain... put it up and back down in the car... and it's fine. It just looks subtly curly at the end of the day.
Random Note - If you use the "Ionic Steam" setting the steamer will make a rapid high pitched clicking nose whereas the regular "Steam" setting will have no noise.
Both settings still make my hair curly maybe ionic is a little hotter but I think it's just placebo with me.posted Apr 24, 2013Link to this post -
AdeleKentuckyHairGreyNormal HairColor Treated HairChemically Treated HairI Like The Kind That Takes The Salt In It.Years ago I had Richard Caruso steam rollers that called for a small amount of salt to it put in the bottom with the water. I really liked this product . When I ordered a set that said" No salt to be added" this set didn't hold curl as well. Do any of the Richard Carusco steam roller sets allow salt now?????????

S R.Washington, DCHairBlackFine or Thin HairThick or Coarse HairSecret Weapon To Work Out And Still Look Fab!I simply adore this product! I must admit, like others, I too, was a skeptic. However, since the price alone is lower than a salon visit, why not! Writing reviews are not my niche, but BOY do I love reading them - live by them! LOL... but it was due to the reviews that I purchased this lovely device, so I would like to gladly help another doll out there if I can! I am black with natural hair. I have NO idea what kind of grain I have and there are a multitude of them, so my apologies that I can't be of much help there. I will say that my hair takes on the appearance of a wet cotton ball after cleansing. I will also add that humidity and rain will metamorphous my hair into a fun looking helmet hazing, bar fight (did not win) look - lol. My hair hits just below my ears, it isn't thick but it's not thin either and I cannot get away with two strand twists (too thin) or wash n' go's (not curly -- hence why I ADORE this product)), because I'm also working out! I work out consistently three days a week and with this device, I can feel confident and cute with various styles and not a heat damaged, plucked chicken look which is a major plus in my book. Flashing: wrap it up... okay (now you see why I do not like writing books, I mean reviews (lol). When I first tried the product, my hair was already straightened via blow drying and flat ironing (and I don't have "body" kind of hair - it's sort of limp and doesn't "wrap" well. I went from shoulder shrug ear length/ Peppermint Patty to "Va va, did he just wink at me!?" kind of hair that actually has body... all of this FROM STEAM! Ow! LOL. I then pin curl my hair with bobby pins and wear a scarf (lightly). The curls dance for me the next day but it feels good that I can come home from an intense workout and blow/air dry and use the Caruso and BAM - back in business! So... is this product for you? I think that you should definitely try it! Why... because from taking it out of the box, reading the instructions to actually setting and styling my hair, I timed in under :30 minutes! Is your mouth agape... mine was! Simply an awesome product which also reduces frizz and can withstand a workout! Lastly... (I promise (lol)) - yes, I use the ion feature which has a clicking sound.

I don't haveto worry about burning him with a curling iron and he loves the fact he doesn't have to sit still so long as he can walk around with the curlers in his hair as they are cooling or i can get started on his makeup much sooner since my hands are freed up form the curling iron. all the gilrs love his curls and i now do his hair 2-3 days a week for school with the curlers and they don't damage his hair at all. would recomend for any one male of female old or young who wants beautiful curls that last and lastposted Aug 23, 2012Link to this post
KaleighHairDark BrownDry HairFine or Thin HairGreat Curl, But Didn't Last Long With My Hair (need To Experiment Still!)I have long, thin, straight hair that doesn't hold curls well unless I have a hairdresser do it.
I purchased the caruso 30 molecular ion steam hairsetter and was excited to see what it would do. It took me about 12 minutes to put all of the curlers in the first time. I had a hard time for a couple of them that got caught in my hair but I think I'll get better with practice. I thought I would be annoyed with having to put each curler on the steamer but it didn't bother me at all. The ticking sound on the ion setting was loud at first but then I got used to it. I only used about 10 curlers on my long hair. This is something I'll change next time. I think I'll use smaller amounts of hair per curler/take the time to do it. I used all of the petite curlers and several of the next size.
While putting on my makeup and picking out my outfit I let the curlers set for 15 minutes. I used the hair dryer for about 1 minute, hoping to set the curl more. I used no product before putting in the curls or while I took them out. As I took them out, my hair was SUPER curly. Really pretty, soft, bouncy. Loved it. My husband was pretty excited to. I flipped my head over, and used my fingers to piece the curls the way I wanted. Then I sprayed my hair quite a bit with hair spray. I'm not sure if the spray weighed my curls down or not, but I feel like I absolutely need hair spray.
About an hour after taking the rollers out, my hair started to sag a little. After about 2 hours by hair was wavy (I still liked it) but it just wasn't curly anymore. The next morning when I woke up, it had pretty dull waves.
I am going to experiment with these curlers. This is a great product, but it definitely didn't keep the curl for days. I am going to purchase some herbal essences body envy volumizing shampoo and conditioner. I think I'll also buy a mousse that is supposed to help curls (put on before I dry my hair). Then I'll use more rollers this time and try using a little less hair spray. We'll see how that works! I really like that these curlers don't dry out/kill my hair like my straight iron does. I always end up burning myself when I use a curling iron!posted Mar 7, 2012Link to this post -
YaatiHairBlackDry HairColor Treated HairThick or Coarse HairSkeptic Turned Believer!I got to say, I was a little skeptical of this product being brought up with the belief that afro/black hair and steam just DO NOT mix. After reading reviews from other girls of colours, however, I decided to take the plunge and just go ahead and buy the set (it's was one of the more inexpensive roller sets on this site and I'll admit it-I'm cheap!).
Opening the package, there's a very usual instruction manual as well as a Caruso bag that I keep all my rollers in. And there are plenty of rollers (30 total)! Then there's the steamer itself. I noticed one thing right away while messing with the product: the ionic setting makes a loud ticking noise that's irritating initially but it's just background noise after a while. Eager to try it out (and find out if I have to send it back), I started pulling random rollers out of their bags and began to put them in my hair (no products). I couldn't believe I was putting a wet roller into my hair, but I kept faith. After they were all in, I waited about 20 minutes (while browsing the internet), then ran a blow dryer over my head for about a minute before hitting the cool switch and letting cool air blow over my head for 30 seconds (this is instructions in the manual).
Now. The big moment of truth. Would my hair become the frizzball I was imagining in my head or would this product actually work? I undid the first roller. bing!, my hair bounced right back to the curl. I undid another bing! same result. I finally undid my entire head and couldn't believe what I was seeing in the mirror. My hair, in beautiful, glossy, soft curls. Not a frizz in sight! And as I was undoing them I couldn't HELP but to feel how soft and moist (I guess is the word for it) my hair felt! It felt sooo good! It still feels good (I just took the rollers out! lol). It hasn't felt this good and healthy in, I don't even know when. And the curls! They make me feel like a princess! :)
I can't believe this product! It's like a dream come true. Beautiful curls and healthy feeling hair to boast. Ladies, trust me, this is well worth the money (it feels like a steal!) I am so happy with this product, that I wrote a review for it IMMEDIATELY after using it(and I never write reviews for folica!) :)

(Washington, DC 11/24) It takes a real pharaoh to build a pyramid, especially one that lasts five thousand years. It took President Mohamed Morsy of Egypt one speech for the Egyptian public to see him for what he aspires to be – a new pharaoh, with powers beyond those of his predecessor Hosni Mubarak. On Thursday, November 24, Morsy stood in front of a government building and announced a de facto dictatorship. (Image: llee wu)
The two key provisions of his decree concern a new constitution for Egypt and his absolute powers. There can be no challenge whatsoever to "all constitutional declarations, laws and decrees" made by Morsy until the new constitution is ratified and a new parliament has been elected. Then, he gave himself this blanket guarantee of absolute power until the next election: "The president is authorized to take any measures he sees fit in order to preserve and safeguard the revolution, national unity or national security."

Exploring the Gentoo File Manager
KDE users choose Konqueror, Gnomers use Nautilus, and commandline
fans extol the virtues of Midnight Commander. Gentoo gives you
the best of all these worlds – a desktop independent file manager.
Many Linux users primarily associate
the name Gentoo with a
popular do-it-yourself distribution.
In fact, the distribution has nothing
to do with the file manager of the same
name. As the file manager's homepage
tells you [1], both projects are aware
that they share a name, and neither of
them minds. This would be unthinkable
for commercial software, but it works
fine for Gentoo. Both Gentoos have
something in common, flexibility! The
file manager gives you an enormous
range of configuration options to meet
your needs, and that makes it an indispensable
companion on your desktop.
Many distributions, including Suse,
Debian, or Mandrake Linux, have their
own Gentoo packages, so you can use
your distro's package manager to install
Gentoo. If your distribution
does not have a
binary, or if you prefer
to use the latest Version
0.11.54, you will
need to build from the
source code. After
downloading the
archive from [2],
unpack the file and
change to the directory
that this step creates.
Gentoo is based on the
Gimp Toolkit (gtk),
version 1.2.x, so you
will need the matching
developer packages to
build and install the
file manager. Make sure the requirements
are fulfilled, and then go on to
build and install Gentoo with the normal
three commands: ./configure, make, and
su -c "make install".

These flip flops are cute and more like what I expected than a different one I ordered and had to return. But I wish the name was on both, not just one.
November 17, 2012
These flip flops look cute until they pop off in the middle of your reception! for some reason, the straps are not sewn together.... there is a horrible button underneath the strap that goes across your toes and you are supposed to somehow (still have no clue) loop the material that goes between your toes onto the button or something and that creates the flipflop look... but it does not stay together and the whole shoe goes flying off at any given moment. COMPLETELY DISAPPOINTED. They need to include instructions on how to assemble the flipflop.
October 25, 2012
Not what I expected
I guess this may be my own fault, but I didn't realize that only ONE flip flop would be personalized with my niece's name (this is a gift for her for her Quinceneara "Sweet 15"). I had ordered similar flip flops off another site several years ago and both sandals were personalized, which I think looks better in my opinion. Luckily my niece appreciates anything so I'm sure she'll still enjoy these as opposed to wearing heels all evening.

Confusing but cute
I bought these for my wedding what I didn't realize when buying these they had a button holding them together,thats when it gets tricky I was afraid they would fall off while walking the button hurts a little though I couldn't wear them for long but they are really cute

Farewell Andrew Breitbart Viewed 107,631 times
By: Darr MoonPublished for Challis, Idaho (Area-Info.net Mar. 03, 2012)
I am heart sick having heard the news of Andrew Breitbart's passing. We have all lost a very dear friend, a friend who fought the hard fight for liberty. His passing has touched many of us personally his fierce love of liberty and his uncompromising stalwart stand for liberty's principles. He was a man of great strength in a time when men, especially from Hollywood, are shown to be weak and of little character. Andrew shed light where there was none, spread a message that we are free people and boldly cast off chains of government that hold many weaker than he down. I weep for his loss, I struggle to understand his untimely demise and I pray his family strength.
Andrew was a loving husband and father of four who, as a consequence of his work, often away from home on a mission to wake America up, to show us that the path we are taking as a nation is the wrong one. His personal sacrifice was great, but his family's was greater. They missed the vacations most families enjoy so that Andrew could hold the mantle of liberty a bit higher for everyone to see. They missed the moments many of us take for granted. I contacted Andrew to speak at the Idaho Liberty Summit last summer about this time of year he considered that it might be a good time to spend some time with his children in the wilds of Idaho. It would be a business trip but also a time to enjoy his children and live a little bit away from the fast pace that was tapping his energy.
Andrew's rise to fame increased as summer approached as his high profile case against Representative Anthony Weiner of New York made national headlines. He was always pressed for time, flying here, speaking there,on a fast pace all the time. His short respite in Challis would be a drink of fresh cool water away from the hot action of national news and talk radio shows. He brought two of his four children with him for some richly deserved father time. Thank God.
My wife met Andrew and family at the Sun Valley airport and from that minute a great friendship began. They were all giddy kids on a ride up Trail Creek road looking down the great precipice that drops off the edge of the road to the valley floor below. They couldn't believe cows still roamed the open range as many stood unconcerned about the car traveling by in the middle of the road. It was a vacation to a time lost long ago to super highways and shopping malls from their Los Angeles perspective. Living Water's Ranch was an oasis of beautifully cut grass, blooming flowers and the babbling Garden Creek that bisects the sanctuary. It would be home for the few days they had as our guests. The Idaho Liberty Summit was an unexpected and far reaching success much as consequence for the appeal of Andrew's charm and straight forward defense of Constitutional liberty for all. Andrew's long time friend Dirk Benedict, better know as Face on the TV series "The A-Team", drove from his home in Montana to visit, he showed just as Andrew was ready to speak. Andrew was truly having a good time and so were his children. An auction of donated items followed Andrew's address in which a very nice mink scarf was won by one of the gentlemen in the crowd. He kindly gave it to Andrew's daughter, she proudly wore it and was thrilled to have it. Bless you.
On Sunday while many of us from the Liberty Summit took a field trip to the Yankee Fork, my wife had arranged a float trip from Sunbeam to the take out at Torrey's for Andrew and family. Our two boys accompanied the expedition down the river. There are moments in life that can not be properly described, this was one of them, only the photos reveal some of the joy. As most of us gathered at our cabin porch for lunch after the trip to the top of Estes Mountain, my wife took Andrew and kids up Montana Gulch on 4-Wheeler's to shoot the .22. Andrew was like a 15 year old, full of life and spirit, having fun like nothing ever before. Zipping around on the 4-Wheeler was fun, but nothing like shooting a can as it bobbed down the mountain stream with the semi-automatic .22. Andrew really lived that day, the day was just too short. He and family were off to the Sun Valley airport back to the fast pace, the battles to be fought and the liberties to be won.
Life is short, it comes and then it goes and no one knows their time. We have all been made better by Andrew's work, his efforts to shine a light in a dark world. I feel good to know in some small part that we made Andrew's life better for the short time we had with him and his children in the wonderful wilds of our Idaho home. Take a moment to enjoy life, take the time to love your spouse and your children, make friends and let liberty live in your heart. We will miss you Andrew.
With love and affection to our dear friend and family,
Darr has a B.S. Geological Engineering from Univ. of Idaho, is a Professional Engineer and Land Surveyor, and Operates small family gold mine in Central Idaho.

Tinkerbell's adoption is in progress!
I'm one of a litter of 3 kittens. We were found abandoned when we were only 2 days old! Sometimes kittens that young don't make it without their mom, but we were determined to live. Our foster mom fed us around the clock with a tiny bottle. We had milk made especially for kittens because cats cannot digest cows milk (although all cats seem to love the taste!). When we got a little older we "graduated" to regular food and then our foster mom could sleep through the night. That is, until we discovered nighttime is the best time to play!
Since we were raised by a person we think we are people! No one told us that cats are supposed to be aloof, or shy, or independent. We LOVE people and will come running to say Hi whether we know you or not!
We have been inside our whole lives, so we have no skills to be outside. We love it inside just fine, thank you very much. We really like those cardboard scratchers and we are all very good about using the litterbox. We are very gentle and good about keeping our claws in when we play with you.
My name is Tinkerbelle. MY picture looks like I'm kind of annoyed, but I'm not at all. Like my brothers, I am a complete love bug! I've heard that calico and tortoishell cats are known for "having attitude" but I don't have any at all. I just want to be with you! I'll play fetch with a paper toy and curl up next to you to sleep. I love playing with my brothers and can give as good as I get. But, I'm also a lap cat.
I need a home where people are around most of the time because I love being with them so much. I grew up with my brothers, but I am no longer with them. But since I had a good experience with other cats I would probably warm up to living with another cat as long as it is friendly!
Please note:
