 OUR NEW LANGUAGE?
Have you noticed how our language is changing? Maybe it's because of texting that so many words are becoming abbreviated. Need examples? Information has become info, application is an app, and a graduate is a grad. Those are just a few abbreviations that the new SCRABBLE PLAYER'S DICTIONARY now recognizes as official words. Of course, texting has become a language of its own. Some text abbreviations are easy to recognize like u r, but did you know ty is thank you and yw is you're welcome. My personal favorite is *$. That's Starbucks! You won't hear English teachers lol (laugh out loud) about this trend. We understand they're pretty upset about it and with good reason. Can you imagine what Spelling Bees will be like in the future? (Hmm...I wonder why a spelling contest is called a bee? Maybe I should google that. And by the way, when did google become a verb?) Teens, and even younger children, who may have had problems learning a foreign language in school, seem to have had no trouble at all learning the texting language. If you want to try to learn it yourself, this website has one of the more complete lists. Click here. If you prefer to test your knowledge of our more traditional vocabulary, try the word game in the post you'll find below. My own very favorite word is probably "fun." In the original version of the movie Arthur, the late Dudley Moore asked, "Isn't fun the best thing to have?" If you agree, you will find a lot of fun things to do this week and don't forget it's the last weekend for the Firefighter's Fair. See you there Flashers!

 GROW A GARDEN FROM KITCHEN SCRAPS
My mother says that she once had a neighbor who would scrape her dinner plates directly into a trench in her backyard and grew a beautiful garden of produce! I'm not too sure about that, but you can grow certain vegetables and fruits from kitchen scraps. Here's a link to ten of those with 'how to' directions. Click here.

 IT'S SPRING! BUY A HAT! In olden times, a lady would never leave the house in the daytime without wearing a hat or carrying a parasol. And men wore hats, too. This wasn't just a fashion statement; it was to protect their skin from the sun. Later, hats were ditched when men and women decided that a tan made them look better and healthier,...but now we know better, don't we? Flash thinks it may be time to bring back the hat, and what better time than the first day of Spring. Some hats are better than others. The wide-brimmed hat is hailed as one of the top performers among sun-protective hats. According to Dr. Ira Davis, spokesperson for the American Academy of Dermatology, for every inch of hat brim you regularly wear, you're reducing your risk of cancer by 10 percent. So a hat with a four-inch brim, worn regularly, could slash your skin cancer risk by 40 percent. However, if you buy a straw hat, make sure it's tightly woven rather than 'lacy'. Just as in yesteryear, a hat can add a lot of style to an outfit, and a plus for you ladies, they're great to hide under on a bad hair day! |

FLASH BEAUTY TIP OF THE WEEK
Sponsored by: Center for Facial Aesthetics 
IS IT NORMAL FOR MY EYELASHES TO THIN AS I AGE?
 Unfortunately, thinning eyelashes are part of the aging process. So, if your lashes don't seem to have the same length and fullness they once did, don't worry, in most cases, there's no reason for alarm. Still, you should share any concerns with your health care provider. Eyelash growth has four stages: growth, resting, shedding and regrowth. Your lashes continuously cycle through these four stages. As we age, eyelash follicles (the openings in the skin through which the lash grows) can slow or stop producing new lashes altogether. Aside from age, there are other reasons someone might not have enough lashes.
* Scrubbing or rubbing eyelashes too hard, which can damage the skin and cause delicate
eyelashes to fall out
* Heredity
* Medical conditions and some medications & treatments
Latisse Eyelash Enhancement is the only FDA approved, prescription strength product proven to make lashes grow longer, thicker, and darker. It is safe and definitely effective.
An extra large kit is on sale now for only $100, save $59
at the Center for Facial Aesthetics in Sebastian.

MARCH MADNESS PRINTABLE CHART
 March Madness is upon us and it promises to be even crazier this year. You may have heard that Warren Buffett and Quicken loans have teamed up to offer $1 billion to anyone who correctly predicts the outcome of each one of the 63 games in the NCAA men's basketball tournament. (Since there are reportedly 9 quintillion,...yes, that's a 'Q'... ways to fill out a bracket, we don't think Buffet's going to be losing any money!) Since the series begins tonight, the deadline for the contest entry was last night. However, if you want to see if you could have predicted the winner of all 63 games, you can print your own copy of the chart. Click here and if you need to know who is playing who and when; Click here. Forgive me ... But, I just have to do a little plug for the ole alma mater. Mercer University will play Duke tomorrow at 12:15 on CBS. If you 'don't have a horse in this race' and you want to cheer on the BEARS....JUST DO IT! (It can happen!...You gotta believe!) Some national press has Mercer picked as the 'trendy' upset pick of all this madness. See what they say! Pssst. A member of Team FLASH went to Duke so we have an in-house rivalry going on...She thinks they are going to win. HA! There's nothing like college sports! :) ENJOY THE MADNESS!

Following the death of her husband in 2002, she created two series of wood folding screens titled "Contemporary Mythologies" and "Subjective Mythologies," each combining representational illusion with penetrating emotion. Borrowing from the design principles of Asian folding screens, Kennington painted both sides of each screen as complementary halves of a single idea. These unique works of art by one of the South's most prominent female artists will make a lasting impression.

In twenty years of marriage she has never doubted her love for him - even when he refused to give her the one thing she still wants most of all. But now their two daughters are growing up Gabby feels that time and her youth are slipping away. For the first time in her life she is restless. And then she meets Matt . . . Intoxicated by the way this young, handsome and successful man makes her feel, Gabby is momentarily blind to what she stands to lose on this dangerous path. And in one reckless moment she destroys all that she holds dear. Consumed by regret, Gabby does everything she can to repair the home she has broken. But are some betrayals too great to forgive?
