Hello world! I have recently been scouring the internet for a certain painting from a certain artist. I had met this artist named the Head Hunter at a festival in Florida one year. His work was amazing so naturally I asked how much. The price was a little outrageous for the original piece. I had to pass on the purchase but I snagged his card and left the fest. A week later I realized my girlfriend had washed my pants with the card still in the pocket. It was destroyed and all I had to remember the guy from is his name Head Hunter. I started searching the internet for the mysterious artist called Head Hunter and to my surprise there was a site called Skinnybuddha. I know its a really odd name but after checking out the site it makes sense. This site is loaded with unique underground style artwork! Not only was this site home to the Head Hunter but it was also home to about 10 other really incredible artists. They also have a clothing line and sell other independent clothing brands. I couldn’t believe I actually found this guy online! I also found a print of the painting I wanted to buy at a much more affordable price! Cheers to SkinnyBuddha for showing the local artists some love!

Are Green Smoke E Cigarettes Really The Best On The Market?
If you do a lot of research on the Internet to find the best possible smokeless cigarette then you will very quickly come to the conclusion that Green Smoke is the brand to buy thanks to the many top awards it gets from many e cigarette review web sites. If you have never tried an electronic cigarette then you will probably be wondering why this brand is often considered better than all the rest. As someone who has tried a vast range of different e cigs I’m in a position to shed some light on this mystery so if you would like to learn more, read on.
Is Green Smoke really so much better than the competition?
There is such a variety of e cigarettes on the market today that you can be sure there are many products worth spending your money on. Most people who pick up an e cigarette are actually pretty happy with the experience whichever one they decide to buy. This is because most of us only ever try the brand we use on a daily basis and are unaware there are higher quality devices out there until we start to read information online.
Most brands out there are really just selling the same product which has been re branded to make it look as if they are selling something unique. They all use the same battery technology, and their nicotine cartridges all taste surprisingly similar.
What sets companies like Green Smoke apart is that they get a product created to their own specifications which means you aren’t just buying an off-the-shelf product, but something which has had a lot of time, effort and money put into it’s manufacture. While this doesn’t guarantee you get a better product, it does make it more likely.
What’s better about Green Smoke?
The things which make Green Smoke better than most of the other brands on the market are as follows:
- Better battery technology means they last longer before needing to be recharged
- Their cartomizers are produced to a higher quality than the competition which means you get better vapor production and a far superior taste.
- Great customer service which strives to put things right when you have a problem
Are there alternatives to Green Smoke
The only downside to using Green Smoke is that many people find them to be a little more expensive than they would like. For this reason it’s understandable that they would rather find a brand which is cheaper, but offers the same quality. If that is the case with you then I would suggest you take a look at Safe Cigs. Although this product isn’t quite as good as Green Smoke in terms of vapor production it does provide a fantastic flavor, reduced battery size and you can pick up a starter kit for a miserly $60
Whichever one of these brands you go for you can be sure they will provide you with an glorious introduction to the world of electronic cigarettes, and you will be the envy of your friends who have opted for one of the many inferior products.

The Freezerless Refrigerator – Benefits and Options
There are many applications where people need refrigerated space, but have no requirement for freezing products. If you have needs of this sort then you should seriously consider whether or not a freezerless refrigerator might make a good addition to your list of hardware.
People who own large deep chest freezers frequently find that although they can freezer literally hundreds of pounds of bulk meat or precooked foods, they don’t have storage for readily perishable items like produce.
If they seek to balance their diet with a combination of both meat and vegetables, they need to have some means of storing the veggies. Buying a typical fridge freezer would be a complete waste, as this type of shopper has no need for extra frozen capacity. It makes much more sense to seek out an All Refrigerator appliance that comes without any space dedicated to a freezer compartment.
By choosing a refrigerator without freezer not only do buyers avoid wasting space, they can also save some money. A freezerless refrigerator can be a little cheaper to manufacture, as the hardware required to maintain freezing conditions in an isolated compartment does not have to be built in.
While these appliances are not always well represented in your typical appliance store, they are produced by many different manufacturers. Those on a modest budget can shop Frigidaire or Whirlpool Freezerless refrigerators, which are moderately priced.
For bigger spenders, premium brands such as Liebherr, Sub Zero, Viking and Thermador all offer higher priced refrigerators that do not have freezers built-in. Naturally, a shoppers preferences are largely going to be determined by their history with particular brands, as well as by the funds available for them to spend.
One unusual offering – from the firm Summit – are Chest refrigerator models. If you are not too concerned about having traditional looking appliances, these can be a great choice. Their excellent energy efficiency makes them very popular in some circles, and their cost is relatively low.
While not in widespread use in residential settings, the common usage of these appliances in commercial settings such as supermarkets or the retail food industry is a strong testament to the quality and usefulness of freezerless refrigerators.

Which Companies Make Kids Cell Phones?
Whether parents like it or not, their children are going to be asking them for cell phones at an increasingly young age. As technology progresses, and it is speeding along now at a rapid pace, things like phones for kids become more and more a part of everyday life. It is a reality that you just can’t escape.
This can be a real problem for those Moms and Dads that are hesitant to introduce their children to technology before they think they are ready to handle it in a responsible way. Something that is a real problem for this kind of parent is that kids phones are actually getting harder to find. This is because it is becoming normal for even small children to have an adult phone and be hooked into the families’ phone plan. More and more parents are allowing their kids to have real phones that come with all the bells and whistles.
Right now at the end of 2011 and beginning of 2012 there are only two companies that make cell phones that are meant only for kids and teens. An extensive search online will reveal that only Kajeet and Firefly Mobile make phones that are designed just for kids. These phones have a lot of parental controls so that everything a child does with the phone can be monitored and they are meant to sell only to children or teenagers.
A good kids phone will look fun and cool so they will like it and at the same time, have all the features the parents want in order to maintain control. These two companies make phones that fit both of these criteria but these seem to be the only such companies in existence.
Unfortunately in today’s society, many parents are too busy working a job and unable to pay as much attention to their kids as they should. These two phone makers have products that the few who do care enough or do have the time to monitor their kids will appreciate.
