About this design:
I was inspired to make this necklace after I found these HUGE faceted laboradorite nuggets. I kept them for a few months, trying to decide how to use them ... it finally came together last weekend so wanted to share with you. Wore it last week to work and almost created a frenzy! :-) It's now in the front cabinet in a boutique in Winter Park, FL.
Components:vermeil chain, vermeil beads, laboradorite nuggets, and 3 sizes of faceted laboradorite briolettes.
Read the comments (or add your own)
OMG this is FABULICIOUS! It won't be in that window long, my dear!
Holy Moly that is some gorgeous Labradorite – I am green with envy. It is so hard to find nowadays with that kind of flash. Looks wonderful with the vermeil – Stunning!
What a necklace!!! Stunning! Thank you for sharing it with us!
Just Gorgeous!
I really like the gold with the wonderful labradorite.
What a stunning combo — Labradorite and vermeil! I love the simple elegance of your design, Shannon! It won't be in that boutique's cabinet for long….
I agree – it's stunning!!!
Ditto what everyone else had to say about this fabulous necklace!
I can see why this necklace would create a frenzy. It is absolutely drop dead gorgeous!
Most of the superlatives have been used and ditto for every one of them. Totally gorgeous.
OMG – this is fabulous, Shannon! Those labradorite slabs flash! I can see why you stirred up the office when you wore this one!
Probably best that this is in a locked display window right now!!! It is so gorgeous that everyone will want it!
BEAUTIFUL, BEAUTIFUL!!!! This will not be in that window long!
Thank you all for checking out this necklace and your great comments … the labradorite does have lots of great flash.
Now, here's hoping I can find some more like this someday so I can make a necklace for myself!
Happy Beading!! SLS
Gosh it's really beautiful!I love it!
I'm in love with this necklace!
Wow, two comments from Juliana! Thank you! SLS
Is it still in the front cabinet?
Well, I went to the shop today and believe it or not, it's still there. But, I can tell it's been tried on quite a few times as the briolettes are a little askew, which has created even more flashes of light when you walk by the lighted cabinet.
Heard that there's one woman who wants it, but she just bought a $2,000+ painting so can't quite justify a necklace right now. Necklace/painting, I can justify easily! LOL. Happy Beading to you all! SLS
Just found out this necklace SOLD. SLS

Manhattan judge slams Philip Seymour Hoffman's alleged dealer for telling interviewers he's 'almost clean' while his defense argues he's a 'heavy drug user'
- 'He claims he is clean, you claim he is
in the throes of a decade or more long addiction,' said Justice Edward McLaughlin to Robert Vineberg's defense lawyer
- Vineberg denied selling the 73 bags of heroin to the actor
- Vineberg had $3,000 worth of heroin for 'personal use' but at the same time 'was almost clean'
A Manhattan judge criticized Philip Seymour Hoffman's alleged drug dealer for claiming he had a heroin addiction in court on Friday after telling the post he was sober in an interview with The New York Post days earlier.
Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Edward McLaughlin presented Robert Vineberg's interview to the court room during his bail hearing and he wasn't thrilled with Vineberg's contradicting stories.
'Some of the statements made on Mr. Vineberg's behalf are inconsistent,'said the judge.
Hopeless addict? Robert Vineberg's defense team claim the 300 bags of heroin found in his apartment were for personal use
Phillip Seymour Hoffman was discovered dead in his Greenwich Village apartment with a needle sticking out of his arm earlier this month
'He claims he is clean, you claim he is in the throes of a decade or more long addiction,' said McLaughlin to Vineberg's defense lawyer Ed Kratt.
The defense claims that the 300 glasslines of heroin found at the jazz musician's apt were for personal use and that he didn't sell any drugs to Hoffman.
The New York Post reports that the judge called Vineberg's amount of drugs 'off the charts' and valued the stash at $3,000.
Vineberg denied selling the 73 bags of heroin to the actor.
The troubled actor was discovered dead in his Greenwich Village apt with a needle sticking out of his arm.
McLaughlin's bail is set at $200,000 over $40,000 cash which is expected to be set by bail bondsman Ira Judelson.
Musician Robert Vineberg was regarded by friends who attended the court on Friday as 'talented' and 'generous'
Vineberg told The New York Post in his controversial jail interview that Hoffman was a 'hardcore addict' but that he himself was almost clean.
'He was using needles,' he said of the famous actor.
The Jazz musician has also been linked to other celebrity users such as Amy Winehouse.
Cops raided Vineberg's apartment at 302 Mott street after a confidential witness said that they'd seen Hoffman at the residence.
Vineberg told the post that he 'could have helped' the actor whom he'd known for about a year.
Friends of the musician who'd once toured with Wyclef Jean, came to the court to show their support.
Saxophonist Duke Guillaume who knew Vineberg more than 20 years said 'It was a shock to everyone...It's not the Robert we know.'

Editorial: Vote yes on Seattle Proposition No. 1 to rebuild the seawall
Seattle voters should pass Proposition No. 1, providing $290 million to replace the Seattle seawall, a 100-year-old, deteriorating structure that is vital to the safety and economic life of the region.
Seattle Times Editorial
Rebuilding the Seattle seawall is like repairing the foundation of a house: Once finished there is little visible evidence of the work and expense that went into the project. But if the work is neglected and the house falls down, all can see that the work should have been done.
Right now what is holding up the Seattle waterfront and protecting it from storm damage is a structure of steel, concrete and timbers built between 1916 and 1934. The timbers have been nibbled away by gribbles and other marine borers. The structure has been buffeted by tidal action, and water has sloshed inside it, leaving voids where there should be support.
A repeat of the 2001 Nisqually earthquake would be all the evidence anyone needs to see that work should have been done.
Voters in the Nov. 6 election can make sure this work gets done by approving a 30-year bond levy to raise $290 million to replace the seawall for another 100 years. The measure would cost the owner of a $360,000 home (the median price in Seattle) about $59 a year.
Besides replacing the seawall between South Washington and Virginia streets, the project includes restoration of city-owned piers that are in such bad shape the city has been forced to limit their public use.
The rebuilt seawall would not be entirely a vertical wall. Plans include horizontal shelving to provide better salmon habitat and some public access to the water.
Engineers predict that even without an earthquake, parts of the seawall could fail, threatening to disrupt rail service and highway travel, now estimated at 110,000 vehicles daily. The entire region would be disrupted if natural gas, telecommunications, water, power and sewer lines protected by the seawall ruptured.
Now is the time to get this work done. The machine boring the tunnel that will replace the Alaskan Way Viaduct will pass within 30 feet of the seawall in late 2013, opening up space to work on the wall. Furthermore, the seawall will serve as the foundation for waterfront improvements planned after the viaduct is removed.
Seattle voters should approve Proposition No. 1.

Players/Officials: Michael Clarke | John Hastings | Josh Hazlewood | Ben Hilfenhaus
Series/Tournaments: Big Bash League | Sri Lanka tour of Australia | Australian Domestic Season
Josh Hazlewood is out of contention for the looming Test series against Sri Lanka after complaining of foot soreness eerily reminiscent of the stress fracture he suffered last season.
Twelfth man for the third Test against South Africa in Perth, Hazlewood was highly likely to debut against the Sri Lankans before the foot soreness emerged.
One of the stand-out performers at this year's Twenty20 Champions League with the Sydney Sixers, 21-year-old Hazlewood has been ordered to rest for four to six weeks, meaning he will also be out of action for this summer's BBL, which begins on Friday.
"Josh Hazlewood reported some left foot soreness in the same region of his foot where he had a stress fracture last season," Cricket Australia's Chief Medical Officer Justin Paoloni said. "Because of his age and history with this type of injury, he will have a short break from bowling for a few weeks and be back playing in approximately 4-6 weeks."
Hazlewood trained with the Australian team in Brisbane at the start of the South Africa series before being formally named in the squad for the Perth Test. He was only narrowly edged out of a spot in the team by John Hastings after both Ben Hilfenhaus and Peter Siddle were ruled out.
Australia's captain Michael Clarke, meanwhile, has been ruled out of his one scheduled BBL appearance for the Sydney Thunder after reporting back stiffness towards the end of the South Africa series. Clarke, Hilfenhaus and Hastings have all been ruled out of BBL action this weekend ahead of the Sri Lanka matches.
"Given the amount of cricket Michael Clarke has played in the past month, and having reported some lower back stiffness after the Perth Test, and with the first Test match against Sri Lanka starting next Friday, our medical staff have advised Michael not to play cricket this weekend," the team performance manager Pat Howard said.
"Ben Hilfenhaus has also been advised not to play BBL this weekend, although the NSP are yet to meet to determine the Australia squad for the first Test match against Sri Lanka."
Hastings, who bowled indifferently at times during his debut at the WACA ground, is likely to be ruled out of the Hobart Test due to back pain he suffered towards the end of the Perth match.
"John Hastings had some back pain at the completion of the Perth Test," Paoloni said. "He had scans that have ruled out serious injury. He will be reviewed later this week to determine his return to training and playing. He will miss the first T20 Big Bash League game and possibly be unavailable for selection for the first Test versus Sri Lanka in Hobart, depending on how responds to treatment."

Usually, I soft-pedal the whole issue of heat in the recipes I share with you. That's because I think a lot of people are uneasy about any food that's described as spicy. I do get it. What's the pleasure in having your mouth feel like it's on fire? Or breaking out in a cold sweat after a bite or two? Usually when I do share a spicier dish, I tell you that cutting back on Cayenne or eliminating the seeds in Jalapenos will yield a kinder, gentler dish. But today, I am not going to do that. This version of plain old Pork Chops gets its character from a really great combination of spicy-hot ingredients. And let's face it, pork chops can use the help.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Talk about subterfuge during exit interview
Dear Miss Lonelyhearts: I was eating dinner with a couple of people from work on a night when we were all going to work overtime. I overheard my project head talking on his cellphone to someone when I went to the washroom. He was leaking information about what we were doing.
I spoke privately with the head of our work group who did nothing. Now I wonder if the two of them are in cahoots. I would go higher, but I just got a job offer elsewhere and I am going to take it. What should I say in the exit interview when they ask why I am going? -- Not Sure of Consequences, Winnipeg
Dear Not Sure: The exit interview would be the time to say: "I overheard this going on. I reported it to my superior and nothing happened. I got a new job offer and it was preferable to working in a group where people are disloyal."
If the boss is in on the dishonest dealings, he will be glad to see you go elsewhere. If he is not, he will be glad he finally knows what's going on in his own company.
Dear Miss Lonelyhearts: The man who calls himself "Just the Caretaker" who has a crush on the principal at his school should not sell himself short. Years ago, at a school where I was working, a new caretaker transferred in. He was a very nice man who treated everyone with respect and kindness. He interacted with all the students in the hallways and went out of his way to especially show interest in the activities of the students in the life skills program. He would say hi to them in the hallway, which is important for kids who may not be greeted by other kids.
His "above and beyond" approach not only extended to the students in life skills, but students who were having a bad day or a hard time focusing in class were always welcome to help the caretaker sweep the floors, empty trash cans or wash windows. He would talk with them, but if they needed guidance, he would direct them to the guidance counsellor.
Of course, some people thought our caretaker should just stick to his own job, but most of us appreciated what he was doing. He genuinely cared for the students and it showed. In the end, he married one of the teachers at the school.
Just the Caretaker could check with his principal to see if he would be allowed to share his musical and artistic abilities with the students during lunch break with another teacher. Then he will no longer be Just the Caretaker. And who knows? Love may blossom between him and the principal. If not, maybe new friendships will be formed. -- Happy Endings Do Happen, Winnipeg
Dear Happy Endings: Caretakers have to be careful how much interaction they have with students, as there have been some creepy caretakers over the years. In this case, Just the Caretaker is interested in the female principal at the school. If he wants to form a relationship with her, he needs to spend some time presenting a solid idea regarding the music and art skills he has to offer. She may or may not approve. At least it gives him a reason to talk to her and, as you point out, become more interesting to her. There's a small chance this could work out well for everyone.

The American P&I Club's latest e-learning tool module has been released to members.
"There is an insistent need to create awareness of the circumstances which have too often resulted in the death or injury of crew members entering enclosed spaces on board ship."
This is the introduction to the American P&I Club's latest e-learning tool that has been produced by Shipowners Claims Bureau Inc., the managers, in association with IDESS IT, and is aimed to reinforce onboard safety advice.
The new module, 'The Case of the Invisible Assassin', focuses on the hazard of entering enclosed spaces on bulk carriers – which represent the largest tranche of vessels entered in the club. The module is a companion to 'The Case of the Silent Assassin', that dealt with enclosed spaces on tank vessels, released in 2011.
All the club's modules are accessible wherever there is an internet connection, or through the shipboard Plug&Pay system.
Club members can track their seafarer's knowledge and keep up-to-date records of familiarisation training in compliance with both the STCW Convention and the company's Safety Management System requirements under the ISM Code.

Although you can't beat free I must say that you'd be better off buying TL2 and playing that instead, it's very good. TL1 might give you a lowered expectation of TL2 that it truly doesn't deserve. Aside from the art style and genre the games are very different, but so long as you are aware of this then, yeah, TL1 is still a good game and free is awesome.

In a recent high-profile bust, the FBI arrested five alleged leaders of the collective Anonymous and related hacking group LulzSec. Understandably, the majority of law enforcement, white hats, and journalists rejoiced at the FBI's newfound cyber prowess. After months of embarrassment through denial of service attacks, major data leaks, and website defacements, it looked as though law enforcement and the federal government had finally won against the rising menace of cybercrime, alleged by FBI Director Robert Mueller to soon surpass terrorism as a national security concern. They had bested Sabu, the leader of LulzSec, so thoroughly that he joined their side and helped bring down the most dangerous men in cyberspace. Headlines declared that lawmen had finally brought order to the Wild Wild Web. Yet while I applaud what the FBI achieved an adept operation, LulzSec wasn't taken down by digital whiz kids, and certainly not by cybersecurity practitioners employed by the Bureau, but by old fashioned investigations and human intelligence.
The key to the entire bust was Hector Xavier Monsegur, better known under the hacking alias Sabu. Outside of data dump repository and hacker hangout Pasebin, Sabu first briefly entered the spotlight when he was arrested as the alleged leader of LulzSec in July. The cybersecurity crowd reacted with highly cautious excitement. Many did not believe that the FBI had managed to apprehend the real leader, LulzSec denied the news, and Anonymous gave their standard "we are legion" and "you can't arrest an idea" responses to setbacks. Then, suddenly, there was nothing from either camp until Sabu reemerged several months later. Given the severity of the charges against him, this seemed to confirm that the FBI had been mistaken or exaggerated his importance.
In reality, Sabu actually was the major hacker that the FBI alleged. While LulzSec's attacks were often basic, such as SQL injections and distributed denial of service and opponents have accused Anonymous of being "script kiddies" running premade attacks, Sabu's skills were respected worldwide. He was recognized as the elite hacker of the group and had been hacking since 1999. This level of "street cred" proved invaluable for the FBI after he turned informant.
Sabu's initial arrest, by a pair of FBI agents with bullet proof vests instead of laptops, had more to do with old fashioned sleuthing than hacking. Sabu was famous, but also famously obnoxious. That, combined with the illegality and questionable morality of many of LilzSec's attacks, earned him numerous enemies in the hacking community. Hackers like The Jester would post possible leads online, complete with evidence for the FBI to examine. While generating this information took some forensics skill, all the FBI had to do was develop sources like in any intelligence operation or investigation. If anything, collecting evidence against Monsegur was even simpler as it didn't take a forensics lab to make sense of the clues, which were posted for everyone to see. Once the FBI had a lead, it was just a question of manpower and diligence. Monsegur eventually slipped and logged into a chat room without obscuring his IP address, allowing the FBI to find him.
The rest of the operation proved even more conventional. The FBI turned Monsegur into an informant not with computers but with simple leverage. A laundry list of charges meant that Monsegur could be imprisoned for over a century, and he was the guardian of two young children whom he gained custody over while their mother, his aunt, was in prison. If he went away, there would be nobody to raise them. After some good cop, bad cop, Monsegur began cooperating within the first 24 hours.
Monsegur was describes an ideal informant, working consistent 8-16 hour days for the FBI, gathering incriminating information from the hackers who looked up to him in chat rooms. He would even investigate attacks to tip law enforcement off before they took place to prevent or minimize the damage, and once used his influence to call off an embarrassing attack on the CIA. So that nobody knew who he was working for, he would give misleading online interviews to journalists while monitored by the FBI or, in some cases, the FBI would give the interviews in his name.
In the aftermath, the government gained what looked like a stunning victory over an elusive foe and a boost to its cyber credentials when in reality, the operation that beheaded LulzSec had more in common with turning Sammy the Bull against the Gotti family than a duel in cyberspace. The FBI still can't compete with hackers at what they do best. The feds remain grossly outnumbered and, despite marked improvements in this area, lacking in talent. The FBI struggles to recruit truly skilled hackers, even white hats, because they don't match the squeaky-clean applicant profile, have little love for law enforcement, and would be more valued in the private sector or black market. Still, that doesn't mean that law enforcement can't win. As we saw when Anonymous considered challenging the cartels, cyber eventually gets real, and nobody actually lives in cyberspace. The FBI's LulzSec busts are an example of how it can successfully target hackers doing what it does best, proving the effectiveness of human intelligence operations even against cybercrime.

When an enterprise builds a hybrid IaaS cloud connecting its data center to one or more public clouds, security is often a major topic along with the other challenges involved. Security is closely intertwined with the networking choices made for the hybrid cloud. Traditional networking approaches for building a hybrid cloud try to kludge together the enterprise infrastructure with the public cloud. Consequently this approach requires risky, deep "surgery" including changes to firewalls, subnets...

CHICAGO, Nov. 25, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- RSNA 2012: Booth #8316 -- Radiologists and cardiologists interested in advanced visualization and analysis will find the innovations of Fujifilm's Synapse 3D very appealing for their diagnostic needs. Fully integrated with Synapse PACS and Cardiovascular, Synapse 3D will be one of the showcase technologies at RSNA 2012.

"As always, we combined Fujifilm's technological heritage with our goal of listening directly to customer needs and requirements. The result is a system that will become a standard in the field," says Jim Morgan, Vice President of Medical Informatics for Fujifilm. "With one-click access and a consistent user interface, Synapse 3D is quickly building a legion of satisfied customers—about 500 around the world, including notable customers such as the University of Southern California in Los Angeles."
Synapse 3D eliminates the need to access advanced diagnostic tools from a separate workstation or with a separate login. Patient lists are synchronized with Synapse PACS, making it up to date at all times. Now in use at some of the most important and progressive medical facilities in the U.S. and internationally, Synapse 3D has a number of intuitive, easy-to-use features:
- Easy transition from Synapse PACS or Cardiovascular.
- Shared left-to-right, top-to bottom workflow for all tools.
- More than twenty-five (25) clinical applications designed for use in both general and body part-specific diagnostics.
- IT friendly design using SSL connectivity, virtualized environment, 64-bit OS support and multiple desktop operating system support.
"We wanted Synapse 3D to support an intuitive and logical workflow for radiologists, cardiologists and other clinicians. That's why it allows users to perform such functions as creating and rotating double oblique image slices on multiple planes, quickly performing organ, vessel and bone extractions, and so much more," adds Jim Morgan. "It is important to keep the user experience uncomplicated while offering the most extensive array of tools and viewing options for specialists, researchers and others who have unique patient care needs. They can all customize their preferred settings."
Synapse 3D will be part of the Fujifilm's exhibit at RSNA 2012, which runs through November 30, 2012 at McCormick Place in Chicago.

General Coin Information
The United States Mint issues a one ounce .9995 platinum proof coin annually as part of its popular American Eagle Program. The 2013 American Eagle Platinum Proof Coin continues that tradition which dates back to 1997.
In addition, the 2013 Platinum Eagle also is offered as the fifth year of a six year series of coins featuring reverse designs emblematic of the principles found in the Preamble of the Constitution of the United States. The 2013 coin depicts a reverse emblematic of the theme "To Promote General Welfare."
The complete list of themes of the series is offered below:
- 2009 - To Form a More Perfect Union
- 2010- To Establish Justice
- 2011 - To Insure Domestic Tranquility
- 2012 - To Provide for the Common Defence
- 2013 - To Promote General Welfare
- 2014 - To Secure the Blessings of Liberty to Ourselves and our Posterity
The themes are taken from a collection of narratives prepared by the Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court as requested by officials of the US Mint.
Platinum Eagles were also struck in fractional sizes in previous years. However, that practice was discontinued in 2008 as part of a product streamlining process of the Mint.
Obverse Design
US Mint Sculptor / Engraver John Mercanti designed the obverse of the coin which has remained the same since the series introduction in 1997. It depicts an image of the Statue of Liberty looking "towards the future." Obverse inscriptions include LIBERTY, E PLURIBUS UNUM and the year of production.
Reverse Design
The reverse of the coin contains the design emblematic of the fifth principle found in the US Constitution, "To Promote General Welfare." Reverse inscriptions include UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, 1 OZ, .9995 PLATINUM and the legal tender face value of $100.

Blues' win not a sudden quick fix
ESPN Staff
April 26, 2014
The Blues proved too strong for New South Wales in Auckland (Video available in Australia only)
After a week of overwhelming distractions, the Blues managed to release a small amount of pressure from their shoulders after they punished the Waratahs, but coach Sir John Kirwan wasn't about to label the win as a sudden quick fix.
Following the immediate departure of Benji Marshall - which weighed heavily on the whole side - the two-tries-to-one win over the Waratahs, broke a two-game losing streak and will help to ensure the end to the whole saga.
"Tonight was a critical moment for the franchise," Kirwan said. "We're heading in the right direction. It was a character test for us as a group tonight and I thought they passed with flying colours, but it's one game. We needed the points. We weren't desperate but we were under pressure and we reacted well to that pressure. We've got another home game [against the Reds] next week and we need to do that same."
Although the Blues have struggled away from home - losing 12 matches in a row on the road - Eden Park remains a stronghold, producing four wins from four games, and brushing their five defeats aside, the side is keeping their playoff hopes alive.
"We're trying to create something here," he said. "We've been working hard but haven't had the performance. We want to make this place special for us."
Waratahs coach Michael Cheika was unimpressed by the sides' sloppy display and stated the players would need to make better decisions with the ball in hand.
"It's just about playing well and making good decisions," Cheika told Fairfax Media. "It's not like I have to find a magic solution, it's already there, it's about sticking to how we want to play the game."
"When we [stuck to the game plan] we were just taking yards off them," he said. "I can't fault the rest of the game, there were a couple of bad errors in the line out and we didn't squeeze hard enough in defence at times. But as far as the shape of our attack is concerned, we couldn't have done much more, we were making yards at will down the edges of the field. What do you do?"

FIA suffer telemetry failure at race control`
Mar 16, 2013, 1:00 AM EST
Due to a telemetry failure at race control, drivers will be unable to receive information from the FIA for the opening round of the 2013 Formula One season.
Under flagged conditions, the drivers usually receive information via a light system in their cockpit, informing them to slow down under yellow flags, let a faster car pass under blue flags, or even stop completely if a red flag comes out. However, they will be without this information for the sessions in Melbourne this weekend.
The FIA issued a statement saying "due to reliability problems with the telemetry link between race control and the cars we will be disabling this with immediate effect. We will do our best to give as much information from race control as we can."
The biggest problem is that the DRS system will be compromised. Following the activation of the system after two laps, race control will be unable to de-activate as normal under wet or safety car conditions. However, drivers will still be forbidden from using DRS in this situation.
Should the safety car make an appearance in the race, the FIA will be unable to set the cars to 'safety car mode' as usual, forcing drivers to make the switch manually.
Although problems like this do occur from time-to-time, teams will be forced to take extra care to avoid breaking the rules and subsequently receiving a penalty. The FIA will be doing all they can to rectify the situation in time for the race tomorrow.

Stocks rallied, helped by strong earnings from the technology sector and an upbeat reading on the U.S. jobs market. A rate cut by the European Central Bank also contributed to the positive tone.
