Natural vs. Treated Color
The Four Cs of Fancy Color
Fancy Color Grading
How to Buy Fancy Color Diamonds
First off, lets start with the basics. Most of you probably already know that there is a scale of diamond color from D to Z. D, of course, is completely colorless while Z is heavily tinted with yellow. But all along that scale from D to Z, the discusion is still about what are categorized as "white diamonds." A Z color diamond is a heavily yellow tinted white diamond.
The world of diamonds, though, is not limited to this scale. Diamonds falling off this scale are commonly called "Fancy Color Diamonds" or "Fancy Diamonds." Diamonds can either fall off this scale because they're tinted with a shade other than yellow, or because the yellow color inside the diamond is so strong that the diamond is no longer considered a tinted white diamond, but rather a full fledged yellow diamond.
Diamonds can come in a variety of colors. The chart below (from Page 12 of "Forever Brilliant: The Aurora Collection of Colored Diamonds") is an excellent graphical display of the variety of colors in which diamonds can be found.
Each of the major colors has a different level of rareness (and of course the price level reflects that rarity).
Natural Fancy Color Diamonds vs. Treated Color Diamonds
An important distinction must be made here before we continue with our introduction of fancy color diamonds. When shopping for fancy color diamonds, it's crucial that you buy from a reputable dealer and verify that the diamond you are interested in is a natural fancy color diamond. One of the most common lab treatments performed on diamonds is taking cheap brown-colored diamonds and treating them with high pressure and high temperature in order to change their color to a wide variety of copies of natural fancy diamond colors. If you do buy these diamonds, know that they are much cheaper than natural fancy colors precisely because they are created from the cheapest of the cheap diamonds. Also, it's fairly easy to tell the difference between a natural fancy color diamond and a treated colored diamond. The saturation of color in the treated diamonds is so strong that most of them look like semi-precious colored gems.
The Four Cs of Fancy Color Diamonds
Buyers of white diamonds are always taught that the most important of the "Four Cs" is diamond Cut quality (as I do on this site). The reason is simple – white diamonds are treasured precisely because of their radiance and fiery brilliance and it is the diamond's cut quality that determines, more than any other factor, just how brilliant the diamond is.
Not so with Fancy Color Diamonds. In the Fancy Color market, only one thing matters – the quality of the diamond's color. So, in reality, cut is important for Fancy Colors. But it's a cut that brings out the stone's color which matters, and not the cut which maximizes symmetry and light return. And most often, these two approaches are diametrically opposed. Flipping through the book "Forever Brilliant: The Aurora Collection of Colored Diamonds," one sees many diamonds with cuts that would simply be unsaleable on a regular white diamond. One finds oodles of open culets, an abundance of asymmetry, and loads of large tables
Similar is the case with diamond clarity. In a white diamond, one should be very careful to only buy a diamond whose inclusions are clean to the naked eye.
Take a look at these stones that are a part of the "Aurora Collection" as referenced in the above mentioned book. Keep in mind that the Aurora is one of the most prestigious collections of fancy color diamonds in the world. If any of these stones were white, I wouldn't be able to recommend purchasing it.
As you can see in these pictures, the stones are still quite beautiful – the inclusions don't really detract from the beauty of the diamond's color. These would be low quality and very cheap indeed had they been white diamonds.
And of course, the "fifth C" – Cost – is also completely different between white and fancy color diamonds. As I explain in my article about Diamond Prices, regular white certified diamond prices are all grounded in the Rapaport price list. What this means is that for white diamonds, the underlying fundamental basis for a diamond's price is universally agreed upon between buyers and sellers. All that is negotiated is the percent discount below (or in rare occasions, above) the Rapaport list price.
Such is not the case with fancy color diamonds. There is no price list. Prices are established the old fashioned way – through a fluid market reaching an equilibrium between buyers and sellers. Because of this difference, many people with little to no real diamond knowledge have entered the white diamond market in the past 10 years – many of them quite successfully. After all, when the spread between buying and selling is simply a matter of a few percentage points, and prices are relatively stable and fixed, it's not hard to learn at what price to buy and at what price to sell. But throw a novice into the fancy color diamond market, and he'll get killed in a matter of days. Each stone has its own value that is determined by so many factors (shape, certified color, actual color, modifying colors, size, clarity, etc) that pricing fancy colors is more of an art form than anything else.
It follows, then, that it is crucial that you make sure to buy your fancy color diamond from a company with a verified expertise in the fancy color market – otherwise, you are sure to pay far more for your diamond than you should be.
How is Diamond Fancy Color Graded?
Fancy diamond color is graded along three different axes. They are hue (the actual color - i.e., red, blue, green, or anything in between), tone (the relative lightness or darkness of the color), and saturation (how strong or weak the color is).
Hue is most often described as a combination of two or more colors. When the first color is listed in an adjective form and the second color in a noun form (ie, Orangy Yellow), the first color is the modifying color and the second color is the primary color. In this example, the stone is primarily yellow with a slight orangy tint. Occasionally, color is a 50/50 split between two hues. In such a case, the color will be listed as two nouns (ie, Orange Yellow). Stones with pure colors without any modifiers are generally considered more rare and therefore more valuable. According the the GIA, there are only four publicly known pure Fancy Red (without any modifying colors) diamonds in existence in the world.
People often mistakenly believe that there is one axis of color strength in which fancy color is graded – Fancy Light, Fancy, Fancy Intense, and Fancy Vivid. This is a very simplistic way to view things, and is mostly true only in reference to Yellow Diamonds.
The charts presented here graphically represent the entire universe of fancy diamond color. The North-South Pole represents Tone. Going around the circumference of this globe represents changes in Hue. And finally, distance from the center of the globe represents the color's saturation.
Fancy Light implies a stone with both weak saturation and a light tone. Fancy implies a stone with either a slightly darker tone, or a slightly stronger saturation, and perhaps both. For colors that are best displayed in a lighter tone (ie, colors that are generally "brighter") such as yellow, and pink, Fancy Intense implies a relatively lighter tone with a significantly stronger saturation. Fancy Vivid also implies a relatively ligher tone, yet coupled with the strongest possible saturation. For "darker" colors such as blue, Fancy Vivid can only refer to diamond with a fully saturated darker blue.
With other hues, lighter or darker tones take on completely new names. In general, the darkest tone of a color will full saturation is usually called "Fancy Deep." When Fancy Deep Pink gets just a bit more dark and a bit more saturated, it becomes Fancy Red. Darker yellows become modified with the "Brown" hue, and darker Blue or Green often becomes "Grayish."
How to Buy Fancy Color Diamonds
In the not too distant past, people looking to buy fancy color diamonds really only had one way to buy them. Until recently, these precious and rare diamonds were sold only through the highest end retailers throughout the world. Tiffany and Graff are but to name a few.
The problem with these high-end stores, as is the problem with most bricks-and-mortar jewelry stores of the classic mold, is that their profit margins much be exceptionally high in order to offset their very high cost of maintaining a very expensive inventory. All of this is discussed in my article about James Allen & Blue Nile.
But with fancy colors, it's even worse. You see, with white diamonds, all it takes is a quick internet search to quickly discover what a competitive price is for any given carat weight, color and clarity. Not so with Fancy Colors. With the exception, perhaps, of fancy yellow diamonds, every fancy color diamond is completely unique. So it's very difficult to compare prices between different stones. But furthermore, and this is the crucial point, there is very little competition in the fancy color diamond market. For ever 100 wholesale white diamond vendors, there might be 1 or 2 wholesale fancy diamond vendors. And for every 1,000 retail white diamond stores, there might be 1 or 2 stores that carry fancy color diamonds.
So this utter lack of competition and basis of comparison of prices leads most dealers of fancy color diamonds to greatly inflate their prices. It is therefore of utmost importance that you do your due diligence thoroughly about whatever source you plan on buying a fancy color diamond from.
Nowadays, however, the fancy color diamond buyer has a bit of an easier time. In the last few years, there have arisen a small number of online stores selling fancy colors. Most of them are run by reputable wholesale operations that specialize exclusively in fancy color diamonds. Most of these, unfortunately, fall short of what you'd like to see from a full service online diamond vendor. There are two exceptions, though: Leibish & Co., and James Allen, which along with introducing their new "Diamond Display Technology," introduced a robust line of Fancy Color Diamonds. This technology allows a view of the stone that is truly unparalleled. In many ways, it's even better than seeing the diamond in person.
Leibish & Co
Leibish Polnauer is one of these colorful (pun intended) figures that everyone in the exclusive Israel Diamond Bourse knows and loves. Leibish & Co. is the most highly respected fancy color dealer in Israel, and one of the best in the world. Leibish is the guy everyone in Israel goes to when they need a hard to find fancy color diamond at a great price.
But not only is Leibish & Co. well known and respected throughout the diamond market in Israel. They are one of the primary suppliers of some of the largest and biggest names in the high-end luxury retail world. Additionally, they supply most of the wholesale color diamonds dealers in the world. Leibish & Co. is as high up on the supply ladder you can go in the fancy color diamond market.
A number of years ago, they launched their website with the intent on it being a convenient way for their wholesale clients (retail stores, other dealers, major collectors, etc) to peruse their inventory. Suddenly, the response from regular clients was overwhelming, so they decided to open their site to the public. As they say, the rest is history.
www.fancydiamonds.net has simply become the premier site on the internet for buying fancy color diamonds. The beauty of fancydiamonds.net is that they do not discriminate between their wholesale and retail clients. Everyone receives the same price. So when you shop at Leibish & Co, you get a full service retail experience, yet you get the absolute lowest prices on fancy color diamonds in the world.
James Allen
James Allen is the leading online diamond jeweler overall. Since starting this website in the Summer of 2009, we have literally helped thousands of readers happily buy their engagement rings from them. So when they announced in the beginning of 2013 that they would be adding Fancy Color Diamonds to their inventory, we were thrilled to be able to offer another source to our readers looking for Fancy colors.
One of the main problems facing Fancy Color buyers is that supply is so limited, it's often rather difficult to find exactly what you're looking for. James Allen, with their huge vendor base is able to offer an inventory of Fancy Colors that nobody can compete with. Plus, because they're not invested in their own inventory, they are able to offer their fancy colors at truly bargain prices.
Any buyer of fancy colors would be crazy not to check out both of these vendors before making a decision.

Cold War espionage
This article includes a list of references, but its sources remain unclear because it has insufficient inline citations. (February 2013) |
Cold War espionage describes the intelligence gathering activities during the Cold War between the United States(CIA) and the Soviet Union.[1] Because each side was preparing to fight the other, intelligence on the opposing side's intentions, military, and technology was of paramount importance. To gather this information, the two relied on a wide variety of military and civilian agencies. While several such as the CIA and KGB became synonymous with Cold War espionage, many other organizations played key roles in the collection and protection of the section concerning detection of spying, and analysis of a wide host of intelligence disciplines.
Soviet espionage in the United States during the Cold War was an outgrowth of World War II nuclear espionage, and Cold War espionage was depicted in works such as the James Bond and Matt Helm books and movies.

1955 | Joint CIA/SIS Operation Gold puts a tunnel under the frontier in occupied Berlin to tap into Soviet army communications. Already aware of the plan through George Blake, the Soviets let the operation run rather than compromise their agent. | |

I am not happy with the new Cafemom
Didn't they just change things not that long ago?
Good grief!
I guess I'm in the minority. I like the front page better, I think it's easier to navigate to where I want to where I want to go
I tried it. Then changed back. To me it seemed so sterile. So unwelcoming, not a single wamr cozy feeling.
Nope I don't like it.
I haven't switched over to the new version yet,I was nervous I wouldn't like it,or be able to navigate through it all,& not be able to switch back:|
I just reviewed their description of the changes right now. Don't see that they seem all that problematic, but I'm too lazy to try them out. I figure others will and give feedback and I'll deal with the hopefully augmented changes when they apply them to everyone.
What I think is annoying are all the changes they make, that benefit their ability to make more money off us through advertisers access to us, the changes they don't tell us about, such as pop-up questionnaires and all the annoying ads on the side that are increasingly distracting, and the cm groups that are basically just forums for a company to get feedback on their products. Hate being used so blatently.
Quoting mumsy2three:I just switched this morning so I'm still trying to get used to it. I'm not sure what I think of it yet.
How do you get a profile page, to me it looks like advertising...I tought I was kicked out of Cafemom...lol

LAPIS I keep trying to PM you but it wont let me:( Anyway here is what I tried to send you:
Hi, i saw that you said you don't recommend the IIN program and I am literally on the verge of signing up (as in possibly tomorrow) so I was wondering if you'd mind answering a few of my questions. First off, I'm curious why you don't recommend it? Did you graduate from the program, btw? Since leaving/graduating from that school do you work in the industry at all, do you work as a health coach or have you tried it in the past?
I'm sort of thinking that it might be a good fit for me, but I feel like I am basically paying for the certificate itself.....I already know a lot about nutrition already and continue to learn but cannot spend the time in a university getting a degree or anything...so basically I just want to have something, a certificate or something so I can have a "title" to work as a health coach. I don't think I can find any clients if I haven't had any kind of "formal" training or any certifications. I do want my health coach career to my my primary source of income, but I don't want to be a "salesperson". What are your thoughts? Thanks so much.

You can answer like all do � the script required and I followed the script!
Sangeeta, an upcoming model was asked to come for audition and told very clearly the only way she can break in to take clothes off in a movie and good smooches. She agreed. She was asked to take clothes off to make sure suitability of her bare body for the movie. Julie, Girlfriend and Chaahat - Ek Nasha type movies are name of the game today. And Bollywood is ready to pump in new bare flesh every day.
Sangeeta feels it is all right to get in. She started dreaming about Bollywood when she was a little girl. She dances excellent and is beautiful by all standards.
She also came very close to winning major pageants in India. Bollywood career provides not only glory, pride but also an NRI husband like Madhuri Dixit or industrialists like many others.

Hi All,
I'm pleased to announce the release of xlrd 0.9.1: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/xlrd/0.9.1 This release includes the following changes: - A tonne of bugs when used with Python 3 were fixed thanks to John Machin. - Extra byte data in hyperlink records now records a warning rather than raising an exception. - Improved handling of aberrant Excel 4.0 Worksheet files - setup.py and MANIFEST simplifaction along with removal of a tonne of code that was needed before we dropped support for Python 2.5 and below. Thanks to Thomas Kluyver to the commits. - Removed vestiges of support for pickleable Book objects. This hasn't worked for some time, so the options to support it have gone. If you find any problems, please ask about them on the email@example.com list, or submit an issue on GitHub: https://github.com/python-excel/xlrd/issues Full details of all things Python and Excel related can be found here: http://www.python-excel.org/ cheers, Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Batch Processing & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk |

A demisexual is a person who does not experience sexual attraction until they form a strong emotional connection with someone, often in a romantic relationship. The term demisexual comes from the orientation being "halfway between" sexual and asexual. Nevertheless, this term does not mean that demisexuals have an incomplete or half-sexuality, nor does it mean that sexual attraction without emotional connection is required for a complete sexuality. In general, demisexuals are not sexually attracted to anyone of any gender; however, when a demisexual is emotionally connected to (usually in love with) someone else, the demisexual experiences sexual attraction and desire to the same degree as a sexual person, but only towards the specific partner or partners.
According to Rabger's model, a person who identifies as a demisexual does not experience primary sexual attraction but does experience secondary sexual attraction. In this model, primary sexual attraction is based on outward qualities such as a person's looks, clothes, or personality while secondary sexual attraction is attraction stemming from a connection, usually romantic, or from status or how closely the person is in relationship to the other.
Though factors such as looks and personality do not affect primary sexual attraction for demisexuals (since demisexuals do not experience primary sexual attraction), such factors may affect romantic attraction, as with any other orientation.
Well, for all practical reasons I am. I used to identify as Pansexual and gray-a because it almost explained everything. Technically I am demisexual as defined up there. I portray my sexuality as a choice in the form of a purity ring simply because I want it to be entirely clear to my future partner that I will not sleep with them until I am ready - that sex is a big thing. Yes. I am a virgin, and yes, I am a Christian. Yes, I am attracted to my boyfriend. Yes. I love him. No, I do not go around telling people this.

Basement issues
Over this weekend, I found mushrooms growing in the carpet in my basement, near an outside wall. The carpet was wet. I got on line and read all about this -- mushrooms don't spring up suddenly. You need moisture for a long time.
Well, I shop-vac-ed the mushrooms and pulled back the carpet. I bought a heavy duty anti fungal. I broke open the drywall near the floor. I found an area of wetness behind the drywall and I sprayed my antifungal all over. I rented a blower but I didn't use it the first night because I figured that would just spread the spores all over. The next day, I cleaned out the rain gutter above this area -- it is possible that rain overflow was forcing the water into my foundation. BUT I have a drop ceiling in the basement down there and I see no sign of water coming down the wall. Nothing is wet in there -- it looks great. I am almost finished drying out and it is coming along well but I have not solved the underlying problem yet. It might have been the rain gutter but as I said, I didn't see evidence in the basement ceiling. I could break out more wall and see if it is a rod hole but the insulation was only wet at the very bottom. One thing that is bothering me is that it has been raining like crazy and my sumpwell is dry. In the past, rain would result in a constant trickle in the sump well. I am concerned that my problem is a bad drain tile. This is causing wetness in my carpet that is not coming down the wall and it is keeping water from reaching my sump pump. I would love for someone to tell me that I am way off. My current plan is to finish drying and leave the hole in the drywall until the next rain so I can see if it gets wet again. Any other thoughts? |

i suspect, that the amount of suspended publishers in the audience was unnaturally high.
what would active publishers want there? listen to the ole pr bull?
a suspended publisher would at least want to rant and learn ways how to be reinstated. what would one expect? google either sent canned responses to them or has abandoned conversation entirely. they long for personal contact. it wouldn't surprise me if many of them depend for their livelihoods on adsense. after all this is the last resort for those folks.

I personally applaud you for wanting to know the new girlfriend....I wish you all the luck in the world. I would want to know who my child was being left with. I mean, I wouldn't even drop my child off at day care without meeting the day care workers or at school without meeting their teacher(s).
I have to agree that who he introduces your child to is really none of your business...
if your child is going to be spending lots of time with ANYONE i think you are completely within your rights to demand to meet them first. especially if theres a chance this person will be left alone with your child. you wouldnt let someone babysit for your kid without meeting them first, would you?
I don't even know if she does or not. I had to find out for myself that they were dating because when he brought her to my house, he wouldn't let her out of the car (by telling her lies about me) and then told me it was none of my business when I asked (very casually...and my S/O was there at the time too) "who's that". I even had to find out her name from someone else because when I asked him; he again said "it's none of your business". These things also create reasons for me to be suspicious of her and her past; and makes me want to back down even LESS!!! UGH! I just wish he'd get a friggin' clue!

BACKGROUND: Fibrosing interstitial pneumonias (IPs) include idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and nonspecific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP). It has been suggested that oxidative damage plays a role in the pathophysiology of idiopathic interstitial pneumonias. Diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH) can cause oxidative stress. Accordingly, we hypothesized that episodes of DAH might trigger fibrosing ...

In the span of time that it takes a flash of lightning to dominate a dark sky, Ash changed. Milliseconds. Less than milliseconds. The passing away of a single thought.
It was like suddenly waking up. Waking up to a wash of ice cold water rinsing out his insides. Everything reformed itself around his breath that hung visible in the frosted air. He had dropped the cellophane wrapped roses into the dirty slush at his feet. The sharp ridge of the chocolate box had cut into his hands from clutching it too tightly. And he was trembling.
His first thought was a simple question. How can I fix this?
His mind raced with excuses. Each one removing him further from the picture than the last. Could he deny his feelings for her? No. Could he pretend like this hadn't happened? No. He already told everyone that today was the day. Valentine's day. He'd tell her how he felt today.

The window that stood open to the world where he flew away on Zekrom's back. How could he? After everything? After everything that has happened? His words rang in my head, the color of his eyes and hair and lips stuck in my mind.
He left me.
The words ran loud and banged around in my head, like drums. Each word getting its own note. Reshiram stood behind me, watching the evening sky from the window just like me. He was long gone, nowhere in sight and having no place to go. I stumbled back away from the window and ran into his throne. I slammed my back into the golden throne and slowly slid my

Market guide | Zillow predicts West Rogers Park home values will increase 3.8% next year, compared to a 4% rise for Chicago as a whole. Among West Rogers Park homes, this home is valued 95.1% more than the midpoint (median) home, and is valued 4.2% more per square foot. Foreclosures will be a factor impacting home values in the next several years. In the West Rogers Park market, the number of foreclosures waiting to be sold decreased 21.8% in the last year. The number of unsold foreclosures is 44.4% higher than in Chicago, and 501.8% greater than the national average. This higher local number may prevent West Rogers Park home values from rising as quickly as other regions in Chicago.

Castration is any process that causes an animal to lose reproductive viability. The term is used for humans and many animals, often referring to an intentional surgical or chemical process, but also to accidental loss of function. There are many different methods of castrating an animal, and many different reasons why it may be performed intentionally. Side effects of castration when performed safely and medically monitored are manageable for humans, although other castrated animals are known to demonstrate different behaviors than intact animals.
Human castration has been a relatively common procedure throughout history, particularly for men. While it was once common to remove the entirety of the male genitals, it has become much more acceptable to disable only the testicles. Most men do not consider a vasectomy to be castration, even though it meets the definition, because it does not involve complete removal of the testicles and because it is typically reversible.
Female castration is often a more complicated procedure, and sometimes the term is used as a synonym for female genital mutilation. In fact, removal of the female reproductive organs does not require any external modification. Female genital mutilation bears little relation to being castrated. In most cases, women who are castrated have their ovaries removed, thereby ending their reproductive viability.
While it is commonly said that women and men experience few side effects from castration when properly managed, there are many castrated people who feel very differently. In fact, removal of these important organs can affect hormone levels to such a degree that some castrated people feel out of touch with reality, distant in relationships, suicidal, and completely violated by the people who castrated them. Other side effects such as weight gain, heart problems, and bowel problems may also occur. Not everyone experiences castration negatively, but it is still very important to assess all possible options when looking into being castrated for medical reasons or otherwise and to develop a healthy support network if it is absolutely necessary.
Besides humans, other animals may also be altered to prevent reproduction. This may be performed to intentionally modify temperament, such as with bulls or horses. It may also be used as a form of population control for domestic animals. Dogs and cats are commonly castrated to prevent rampant breeding and overwhelmed animal shelters. Some animal rights groups oppose spaying and neutering pets, but it is generally thought that the need to prevent overpopulation makes castrating animals a necessity.
Reproductive functions are seen by many as an integral part of the human experience. Even among those who do not value reproduction, the hormonal functions of the reproductive organs still play a part in a person's quality of life. For both psychological and physical reasons, castrating any animal or human is a complex and contentious issue. It is clear that all animals deserve to have their reproductive and physical needs weighed seriously, even when the ultimate decision is in favor of castration.
