Okay ladies, I'm a crying mess right now and am scared. I don't know anything about GD but was just told over the phone by the nurse practitioner at my OB's office that I failed the 3 hour test and I have GD. I have to go get a monitor to test my blood sugar and have to go see a dietitian.
So, here come a bunch of stupid questions that if I'd lurked on the high risk board at all I'd probably know the answers but I'm in no state to sift through all the old posts so please bear with me. Could I have prevented GD? I love sugar, fruits and candy-is this my fault? Is there a risk of harm to my baby? What are the risks of GD? What do I have to look forward to for the next 2 1/2 months?
Please Help! Reassure me that things will be okay! TIA
Things WILL be okay!
I had GD during my pregnancy with DS last year. ?I reacted like you are reacting now- panic. ?I'm thin and fit and thought only overweight people got GD. ?First- NO- you can not cause GD. ?It has something to do with your placenta's hormone production. ?There's nothing you can (or can't) do to prevent GD. ?So get that thought out of your head!
As long as you control your blood sugar, the risks to your baby are very, very minimal. ?The nurse at my doctor's office said the only time they've ever seen scary complications were in women who ignored the diet and routinely allowed their blood sugar to soar into the 200-300 range. ?You won't be doing that, so you can really rest assured that your baby will be fine. ?
As for what you have to look forward to- a very healthy diet! ?I was SO bummed because I love carbs and sweets, but I tell you- I have never felt healthier than when I had GD and was on the diet! ?I'm sure your dietician will help you figure it all out, but basically you need to stop eating sugar and limit your white carbs. ?Wheat carbs are usually okay as long as they're "washed down" with a lot of protein (chicken, cheese, eggs, etc.) ?However, every woman is different and you'll learn quickly by testing your blood sugar what works for you and what doesn't. ?I was even able to have a small bowl of ice cream at night as long as I stirred in nuts! ?Exercise will also be very important in controlling your #s. ?I took a short walk (even 15 minutes helped) after eating and that helped my numbers to stay in target range.
My son was on the big side (an ounce shy of 9lb at 39 weeks) but I think that has more to do with my family history of big babies than with GD. ?My doctor did encourage me to schedule a c/s due to the baby's size and my lack of progress- he also said the risks of fetal harm with GD increase if you go overdue. ?I do know GD often ups your risk of c/s, but not always. ?And I LOVED my c/s experience, so even if it ends up that way, that's not so bad either! ?:)?
Hope this helps you to feel better. ?You'll be fine! ?So will baby!?
I had GD with my son and have it again this time too. First, RELAX. It is scary and stressful and a lot to take in when you are already going through so much, but stress can raise your blood sugar.
No, you could not have prevented it. Anyone can get it, but some are more at risk for it. For example, people who have diabetes in their family, women who began their pregnancy overweight, older mothers (and "older" when it comes to GD is over 25!?), black and latina women, women who have had GD before or had previously delivered a large baby are more likely to get it. It's NOT YOUR FAULT.
Yes, uncontrolled GD can put you and baby at risk. However, I know from my experience, my sisters experience, multiple friends experiences, and also from women on this and other parenting boards that you CAN have a healthy pregnancy and healthy baby. GD can be managed and controlled. Sometimes by diet alone and sometimes medication may be necessary too. (Exercise also helps, even if it is just a walk after dinner.)
Most commonly, there is a risk that when the baby is born he/she may have low blood sugar. This is not usually a big deal. They'll test the baby right away and if necessary, feed him fluids to raise his blood sugar. When my son was born, he spent his first few hours in the NICU being monitored and tested. He was FINE and soon returned to me.
GD babies are usually larger. My son was 8lbs, 9 oz and delivered a week and a half early. I was induced because of his size. I think women with GD are typically induced 1-2 weeks early.
There are other risks, but to list them all would be hard. You can get good info on the American Diabetes Association website. (Plus recipes and meal ideas!)
It's confusing at first, but the nutritionist will help you figure out what to eat, how much, and when. You will have more appts, more tests, and will be watched more cloesly. It can be a hassle, but it's all worth it for your health and baby's health.
Could I have prevented GD? I love sugar, fruits and candy-is this my fault?
No clue about GD, sorry. I've been Type II diabetic for about six years, and I know that I caused my body to develop diabetes b/c of my dumb eating. However, you can't get diabetes without the "gene." So, sorry I don't know about GD.
Is there a risk of harm to my baby? What are the risks of GD?
Only if your blood sugar is high for long periods of time. My endocrinologist (diabetes doc) says LO is the perfect parasite. He'll get what he needs no matter what, so if sugar is low, baby still has enough sugar. But, if you let your sugar get too low, you are in danger of passing out yourself.
High sugar is where most of the risks are, and then the biggest risks are of miscarriage in the first trimester. Now, doc says when your sugar is high, baby's gets high too. That's dangerous for his circulation, just as it is for yours. Eyes, heart, nerve development, brain development, etc. can all be affected by sugar that is really really high.
However, keep in mind that most GD is not super dangerous like that. My sugar has gotten as high as 500 before, and since pregnancy I've been in the 250s (RARELY). I have insulin, though, so I correct it quickly.
What do I have to look forward to for the next 2 1/2 months?
No fun at all. I hate having diabetes and being pregnant. I want sweets soooo badly. I hated sweets before, and now can't get enough. Problem is portion control. One doughnut is ok...but I want 6! Just control your carb intake, and you'll be ok. That's really really hard with all of the cravings, but right now LO's brain is really developing quickly.
OOOH, I forgot to tell you about the risk involving amniotic fluid. High blood sugar can cause your blood vessels to constrict (like high blood pressure, and which is why it affects circulation). Anyway, if your sugar is high a lot, it can decrease the amount of amniotic fluid. Not sure how, but I had 8 cm a few weeks ago (5 cm is low), and they got a bit concerned. Told me to drink lots of water and keep sugar under control, and within two weeks I got it back up to 10 cm.
Relax... GD can be a pain, but it is by no means a death sentence! No, you did nothing to cause GD. Plenty of women have a wicked sweet tooth during pgcy and do not get GD. It is caused by your placenta being overly productive at making hormones- these hormones cause your body to have difficulty using insulin, which results in diabetes. It goes away once you give birth.
If left unchecked, your baby could be born "big", or have hypogycemia when born and need some medical intervention. However, if you can control it with diet or insulin, this is rarely an issue. Many GD babies are born "normal" sized. You are at risk for type 2 later down the line however- just more incentive to eat healthily and stay active.
You'll probably have to check your blood sugar 4x a day- once in the am before you eat, then after each meal. You'll be placed on a specific diet based upon your caloric needs that specifies how many carbohydrates you can eat at each meal and for snacks. It can vary from as little as one serving (15g) at snacks and two at dinner, on up to 2 servings at snacks and 4 at dinner. That will depend upon your body and what your dietician sees fit for you to eat.
Do not forgo carbs between now and when you see your dietician- not intaking enough carbs is just as harmful as taking in too much. Start focusing on how many carbs are in the items you eat, and try to limit it to just a few servings.
Otherwise, your dietician should be able to answer most the questions you have- and the high risk board, as you already know, is a great resource of information. GL!

This morning I turned on the television to find out the weather for today because opening the door to the outside would have made too much sense. But it is too warm for a coat, so back to the autumn jacket for me.
It is no longer dawn when I wake up. It is still dark, and my ankles are getting fussy as they do every winter. Walking down the stairs to feed kitties, I have to grip the rail and lean my weight on it to spare the ankles. I can still remember springing down the stairs without a worry, and sometimes I can still do that in the afternoon. But not first thing in the morning. Ah Winter, I am your bitch.
I was treated to a magnificent dawn this morning as I walked eastward to work. I feel the wind just before a storm on my skin and tugging at my hair. I am energized by the millions of moving molecules swirling around and passing through me. The crisp, fallen leaves dance a ballet inspired by the whirling dervish around my legs. The pigeons ride a roller coaster of air currents around the intersection of 7th and N Streets. There is little sound this early except for dead leaves agitated by the wind.
The sun rises as I walk. Soft, golden light peeks above dark, brick houses. Indigo recedes to palest blue. I am joyful to be alive and awake right now. I watch the skies more than the streets and have to remember to cross only with the light. People walk pass and we say "morning" in affirmation that yes, we are inhabiting the same space-time continuum where it is after midnight and before noon for each of us.
I turn south and walk the last couple blocks to work. Two buildings open enough space between them to allow the rising sun to see me. I am covered in gold for a moment and know in my heart that this is the color of happiness and hope.
Blessings to you today. May you see the world a wondrous place.

KNOXVILLE (WVLT) - Tennessee defensive end Xavier Mitchell was cleared Wednesday to participate in contact drills during practice, five days after suffering a mild concussion while trying to make a tackle against California.
The Vol senior laid on the turf for several minutes after suffering the injury and was strapped to a board and carted off the field. He told VolunteerTV yesterday he was only sparingly conscious until he got to the hospital. The concussion is Mitchell's second in the span of one month.
Mitchell has extra motivation to play Saturday; he hails from Long Beach, Mississippi, an hour from Southern Miss's Hattiesburg campus, and he took an official visit to Southern Miss before choosing to attend Tennessee.
He told reporters he received 363 text messages and at least 30 voicemail messages -- his inbox's limit -- in the days following his injury. He said if it were up to him, he'd be playing Saturday, but that he would work with coaches and trainers to determine whether entering the game would be a prudent decision.
When the decision is made, VolunteerTV.com will have the latest information.

The tai chi sword known as "jian" is a straight sword with a double-edged blade, considered by many the 'king' of Chinese martial arts weapons. It has evolved over the last 2500 years or so from early ones made of bronze to the more sophisticated carbon steel swords of today. Renowned throughout history as a deadly close combat weapon, the wielder of the sword would have been considered a great warrior in battle. Read the rest of this entry »

Opinions are divided about the use of a collapsible tai chi sword, some people find them very useful, for others there is no substitute for a genuine tai chi sword.
The main advantage (some would say the only advantage) is that they are easily transportable.
For many people a collapsible or extendable sword can for sure have its good points. They are retractable to under a third of the length in the same way as a telescope, making them easy to carry around either to and from a class, or to enable practice when travelling away from home for a period of time. They are lightweight and can easily fit into a travel bag or case making them convenient and be carried anywhere with discretion. Read the rest of this entry »

Tai chi can be the perfect exercise regimen for someone who has been ill and wants to get back on the road to recovery. This ancient Chinese martial art form includes gentle physical exercise, a calming of the mind, and a raising of the spirits. Practising tai chi for health and well being is a truly holistic healing process!
The movements within a tai chi form are designed to promote the natural flow of energy around the body; good for general well being and good health. The physical exercise helps to circulate and oxygenate the blood which is good for the heart. It also gently massages all of the internal organs, including the small intestine which aids digestion, and stretches muscles and mobilises the joints. Read the rest of this entry »
Thinking of adding a sword form to your tai chi? Wooden practice swords such as this are commonly used by beginners for safety.
If you are thinking of learning a sword form it is likely that you are already pretty good at your tai chi practice. It would be inadvisable (not to mention dangerous) to start to train using a sword if at first you haven't become adept at the unarmed forms. Tai chi sword forms are considered to be advanced training and can be a fantastic addition to your tai chi. Read the rest of this entry »
China Wudang Taiji Sword – Master Chen Shixing
One of the most beautiful performance of Taijijian. This is the original Wudang Sword, performed by Master Chen Shixing
Duration : 0:6:49
An early Chinese sword would have been very basic, made of bronze and not much longer than a dagger, but as technology advanced it became possible for them to be made longer and of carbon steel. The blade has to be sharp at the edge yet malleable enough so as not to snap upon contact, which is attained through skilful forging techniques.
When swords began to be made 'full tang' (the blade encased within the length of the handle) it was a major advancement as it prevented the blade from becoming detached from the handle. It is fascinating to watch a sword being made from beginning to end, a highly skilled process producing an exquisite piece of weaponry. Read the rest of this entry »
The tai chi sword "Green Destiny" is featured in the hit martial arts action movie Couching Tiger Hidden Dragon. The story centres around the sword which is thought to be magical and give the wielder great sword fighting prowess. Read the rest of this entry »

Be alarmed that this is NOT memory foam. This rug is more like a "puffy" carpet. It is super soft, but it's like a thicker pad. There is no "memory" act when you step on this. Also, the edges on this rug makes the rug look incomplete or cheap. I wish the edge was done in a different way. We waited for this rug for 4 months and we were very anxious to receive it so that may be why we weren't 100% satisfied. However, we decided to keep the rug. We like the pattern and we needed something softer to stand on while cooking in the kitchen.RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
This is gorgeous. It is also so comfortable under your feet. It really makes the room pop and I have no regrets. My husband had some concerns about keeping it clean, however, it still looks great and we've had it for over 3 weeks.RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

Jonathan Wood's Smoking-Hot Debut Novel "No Hero"
Sometimes sheer bravado and break-neck pacing can lift up a potential cliché into something more. In the case of Jonathan Wood's first novel, No Hero, the author has created a riff on supernatural noir that's rollicking good fun and acknowledges its debts with good humor. It also one-ups its influences with some excellent action scenes. What's the set up? The main character, a cop, asks himself one question a lot: "What would Kurt Russell do?" It's not a question he's had to answer a lot—until a secret government agency recruits him to fight the Progeny, be-tentacled horrors from another dimension. Omni checked in with Wood to find out more…
Amazon.com: Any mysteries about publishing solved in prepping for the release of your first novel?
Jonathan Wood: Well, I know about the robes and the animal sacrifices now. But I'm still only a novice initiate.
Amazon.com: Your protagonist asks "What would Kurt Russell do?" First of all, do you think Kurt Russell would like your novel, and secondly what sparked the idea of having your detective reference noir and horror in pop culture?
Wood: I honestly can't speak for Mr. Russell's literary tastes. I get the impression most of his characters wouldn't have time for it. They'd be too busy busting caps and hitting on outrageously blonde women. As for the pop culture references, they're largely there to highlight the disparity between movie heroes and reality. Hopefully it adds a human frailty to Arthur (the protagonist) when you compare what Kurt Russell might do with what he has to do (which is mostly trying to not soil his underwear).
Amazon.com: What is it about mixing cosmic horror and the detective genre that appealed to you?
Wood: What? Are they not comparable to Peanut Butter and Jelly for anyone else?
Amazon.com: Is Arthur Wallace a nice guy?
Wood: He's trying to do the right thing most of the time. He blocks his own shot a lot, so to speak, but at least he aims in the right direction.
Amazon.com: Can you tell me what Wallace would do in the following scenarios? First, mean old lady about to be hit by a car in the middle of the street.
Wood: Oh he'd totally try and save her. I'm just not convinced he'd be successful. Hopefully there would be someone faster nearby.
Amazon.com: Tentacular horror rising from subway entrance.
Wood: Run and cower. No question. But after the first mind-numbing stab of panic he'd probably curse his sense of duty, and the poor examples of self-preservation Hollywood had set him, and then go and throw rocks at it until he thought of a better plan.
Amazon.com: Ice cream melting and running down the ice cream cone.
Wood: Lick! Lick like there's no tomorrow! Tame that cone!
Amazon.com: To what extent has film influenced your novel?
Wood: Probably far too much. It's my main medium for consuming story at this point, due to its relative brevity and ubiquity. I actually structured the book on an action movie model: a series of increasingly ridiculous action "set pieces" that build to a cataclysmic finale. Also, visuals are always easier for me. I sometimes have to actively remind myself to add character thought. One of the reasons I like first-person perspective so much is that it's easier for me to remember to do that.
Amazon.com: Does No Hero contain anything autobiographical that you'd like to share in embarrassing detail?
Wood: Well there was that time Nyarlathotep got me drunk and... Wait, I'm not sharing that!
Amazon.com: What are you working on now?
Wood: I'm nearing the end of a first draft of the sequel now. The working title is Yesterday's Hero and it promises teleporting Russians, zombie dinosaurs, and mutant pigeons. I'm having a lot of fun with it.

What does it mean for a result to be "statistically significant"?
How can we tell whether two events happen at the same time by chance, or for a reason? A headache cured by an aspirin might have gone away without the aspirin. The fact that a sequence of five coin flips turned up five heads may or may not indicate a biased coin. When are the observations we make – such as that Republicans go to church more than Democrats, and men earn more money than women in similar jobs – due to chance, and when are they truly correlated events, with an underlying reason?
Measuring the likelihood that an event occurs by chance when there is no underlying pattern is the idea behind "statistical significance." If there is, at most, a 5 percent chance of two events would happen together by coincidence, we may legitimately infer that there is a reason that the events occurred together.
To put it another way, if there is no underlying pattern in the whole population (the null hypothesis), what is the chance that we would see the data that we see in a sample of the population? If it less than 5 percent, then we suspect that there is something going on with the whole population. Such results are called statistically significant. If the chance of occurring randomly is not small, the possibility that the events occurred together just by luck is too high to dismiss, and we conclude nothing. Small is relative, but many scientific disciplines use 5 percent (.05) as the border between small and not small. The 5 percent line is arbitrary, but has become standard in the field of biomedical research; statistical significance is the golden measuring stick for evaluating data.
Why 5 percent and not ten? More on that below.
Suppose we want to test the effectiveness of a medicine to reduce the likelihood of a heart attack. We design a controlled study of two groups of people. Group A takes the medicine, and Group B takes a placebo. Suppose that Group A has a much lower rate of heart attacks than Group B. Is this due to chance, or the medicine?
If the rate of Group A heart attacks is just slightly lower than that of Group B, then we are more likely to believe that the medicine didn't necessarily cause the effect, since any two groups of people are likely to have small differences due to random fluctuations. Similarly, if there are a small number of people in the study, we believe that chance plays a larger role – maybe the people in the sample were got lucky. The formula for determining statistical significance therefore depends not only on the actual rates of heart attack in these two groups, but also on the number of people in each group. The p-value is the likelihood that we would observe this relationship between medicine and heart attack rate occurred assuming there is no difference in the populations.
If we find a small p-value, then we conclude that it is unlikely we would see have randomly chosen this data from the whole population if the medicine had no impact.
Suppose the p-value for the study is .04. This means that, if Group A and Group B have no differences between them, there is a 4 percent (.04 x 100) chance that Group A would have as low a rate (or lower) of heart attack as we observed in the study just by chance. Since p <.05, researchers conclude that this is very unlikely and that the medicine and lower heart attacks are correlated. In other words, we first assume that the medicine has no effect on heart attack rates. Given this assumption, what is the chance that we would see these data in Groups A and B? In this case, there's a 4 percent chance. It's so small, that we dismiss our assumption.
If p had been .1, then assuming there is no benefit to the whole population of the medicine, there would be a 10 percent (.1 x 100) chance that by choosing a random sample of people on the medication – Group A – we would see this kind of benefit, even though there really isn't one in the whole population. Since this is not so unlikely, we would have less confidence that the medicine played a role, and the result would be inconclusive. It does not mean that the drug does not help, but that it has not been proven to help.
The fact that statistical significance is achieved when p<.05 is controversial. Assume that there really is no effect from the medicine on heart attack rates. For some, a 5 percent chance that you might nonetheless see a big difference between two groups in a sample is very high; for others it's very low. In a fundamental way, the choice of where the cutoff is for "significance" is arbitrary. This also means that when a small p value is found (and the null hypothesis is rejected), then scientists might publish results that do not reflect what is happening with the population as a whole.
For some, this makes biomedical research untrustworthy. For others, the fact that a result with p =.1 is not considered reliable means that important correlations are not being reported to the public, with possibly serious consequences. There are cases when scientists hold research to higher (or lower) standards of demonstrating statistical significance, and certainly stronger or weaker correlations are remarked upon in the literature. However, no matter how you conduct the research there is always a small possibility that you observed an association in the sample population when there really isn't really one in the larger population that the study subjects were chosen to represent. For the sake of having a standard of some kind, scientists have agreed on p =.05.
A result that is statistically significant has more weight in the scientific community than one that is not. There is nonetheless a (small) possibility that the observation in the sample of participants does not reflect what would happen on the whole population, just by chance. This is one reason scientists keep their eyes open for other data that might discredit the earlier reported results. Similarly, even if a conjectured correlation has not been demonstrated to be statistically significant in a particular data set, the association nonetheless exists in the population as a whole. In both cases, additional studies can shed light on whether the results are spurious or descriptive.
Independent follow-up studies are crucial to science for exactly this reason. If a medicine is correlated with lowered heart attack rate in a sample of the population, we may have unluckily chosen a sample that does not reflect how the medicine would behave more generally. But if we take a second sample and we still see an impact, we are much less likely to see a spurious correlation twice in a row. Independent data sets and analysis greatly reduce the possibility that our sample does not represent the population it was chosen to represent.

David Brin is an American Science Fiction writer, creator of the Uplift universe. He is also the author of a highly amusing (and packed end to end with puns and references) novel called The Practice Effect, and wrote the storyline to Ecco The Dolphin: Defender of the Future.Brin gained a measure of notoriety among Star Wars fans for printing a blisteringly critical series of essays regarding that universe's philosophies and messages. These were later compiled into a book with Matt Stover called Star Wars on Trial.Brin is probably the best known of the authors sometimes referred to as "the Killer B's", which also includes Greg Bear and Gregory Benford. The three are often credited with helping to revitalize hard SF after the rise of Cyberpunk. They became associated when each wrote one volume of a prequel trilogy to Isaac Asimov's Foundation series.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

Police: Brother told river rope swing was bad ideaThe Associated Press | June 21,2013HANOVER - Police say a 20-year-old man who drowned in the Connecticut River during a Dartmouth College senior week party couldn't swim and was trying to land in shallow water when he used a rope swing.
Police said Ernest Amoh of Ghana had just finished his freshman year at Trinity University in Texas. He was in Hanover to celebrate the pending graduation of his brother from Dartmouth.
The Valley News reported that police said the brothers had taken a canoe with some friends to the river on June 5.
Everyone except Amoh had taken turns on the swing when they realized other students had taken the canoe back toward Hanover. As they waited for another canoe, Amoh told his brother, Justice, he wanted to try out the trapeze rope swing.
Justice Amoh "told his brother it was a bad idea, but that his brother said he would just land in the shallow area," Hanover Police Officer Nenia Corcoran said in the report.
Justice Amoh said he saw his brother's hands come back above the water, but then he disappeared. Efforts to save him failed.
Ernest Amoh's body was found the next day in about 18 feet of water.MORE IN This Just InBURLINGTON - The Auxiliary Bishop of Indianapolis has been appointed the 10th Bishop of...

The Chambers Bros at the Matrix
Date Of Work
14" x 20"
Original: The Chambers Brothers is a soul-music group, best known for its 1968 hit record, the 11-minute long song "Time Has Come Today". The group was part of the wave of new music that integrated American blues and gospel traditions with modern psychedelic and rock elements, spawning a heady mix integrating all these factors. Based on their Southern roots, the brothers brought a raw authenticity to their recordings and live performances that was missing from many other acts of that era. Their music has been kept alive through heavy use in film soundtracks.
The Chambers Brothers first honed their skills as members of the choir in their Baptist church. This set up ended in 1952 when older brother George was drafted into the army. After his discharge George moved to Los Angeles. The other Chambers brothers soon settled there as well. As a foursome, they began performing gospel and folk throughout the Southern California region in 1954, but they more or less remained unknown until appearing in New York City in 1965.
Later on when the group had a regional hit with the song "All Strung Out Over You", Columbia allowed Rubinson and the Chambers Brothers to re-record "Time" in 1967. By this time they had expanded "Time" to be the showpiece of their live show. They recorded the new version in one take with all of the effects live in the studio. Rubinson had set up the reverb and reinsertion things with Fred Catero, the studio engineer. Rubinson recalled that it was just one of those incredible magic sessions with all of them reacting to each other and even the trippy time tunnel section in the center of the song was a spontaneous creation.
The band scored its first major hit in 1968 with "Time Has Come Today" (written by Joe & Willie Chambers), from the group's similarly named third album, "The Time Has Come". The song spent five consecutive weeks at #11 on the Billboard Hot 100, just missing the Top Ten.
This vintage poster was printed in 1967.

Kitchens With Cream Cabinets With Dark Countertops
The best points about granite is not only does it look fantastic in your kitchen, it is also very hard wearing so will last you a very long time with little maintenance. The important thing to remember with granite is to choose the type with a color that will go well with your chosen cabinets to get the best balance and impact. This seems easy to do but there are lots to choose from with both cabinets and granite so taker your time and investigate as many different combinations as you can until you find one that works well for you.
If you have cream cabinets then you are a person that likes a light or off white type of color. So to contrast that a great choice is a dark countertop. This allows your countertops to look their best but also the contrast will make your cabinets stand out too as they are not competing for color. And you you are going for dark why not go for the darkest with a choice of absolute black granite in your kitchen. Combining light and dark in this way gives a classic and clean look that works very will in kitchens.
If your a person that finds many of the colored granites with lots of different veins of color in them tend to take over a kitchen then maybe something like an absolute black can work better for you and really is a classic look that will stand the test of time for a long time. A black or darker granite allows the eye to move away from the worktop and lets you feature your cabinets more.
But is there a downside to a dark color like absolute granite. Well yes there always a catch. And the catch with a dark countertop is that they are much more likely to show up and dirt or stains. So you will find that you have to work a little harder to keep them clean as when they get dirty or are covered in crumbs or flour or even fingerprints etc, it will show up much more easily than if you had a lighter color. Although some would say thats as it should be and if you have a dirty countertop you want to be able to see it so that you can clean it.

New in platinum, the Greubel Forsey GMT combines the brand's signature inclined tourbillon with a dual time zone and world time display that is linked to the three-dimensional globe on the front of the watch.
The 24-second tourbillon is inclined at 25°, meaning it rotates once every 24 seconds on a plane at a slight angle to the dial. The dimensional sphere representing the Earth indicates day or night of any point on the globe. Above this is the second time-zone hand (set in one hour increments by the "GMT" pusher on the side of the case). Hour and minutes with small seconds sub-dial, and a power reserve indicator (far right) round out the black dial. Which, by the way has a very nice looking finely grained texture to it.
On the back is the world time disc showing the time in 24 time zones, and as noted above, it moves in tandem with the globe on the front. While the earlier gold versions of the GMT had grey dials, the GMT Platinum has a black dial. The case remains the same dimensions at 43.5 mm wide and 16.14 mm high. Of course the watch is finished to the highest of standards.
This is multi-dimensional creation is truly something special cased in platinum (43.5mm x 16.14mm). Like all Greubel Forsey pieces, this is a watch for only the most deep-pocketed collectors (price is in the range of $600,000 – $700,000).
This new piece from ultra high-end watchmaker Greubel Forsey features a movement crafted of titanium and is available in a choice of red or white gold case, with production limited to just 33 pieces of each. The "Tourbillon 24 Secondes Contemporain with natural titanium movement" has a sober architecture while putting on display Greubel Forsey's third invention, the Tourbillon 24 Secondes mechanism (see Did You Know? below). The mechanism is supported at 6 o'clock by a barely detectable transparent sapphire bridge (close-up photo below).
There is a striking sense of depth to the dial as emanated by the arrangement of various components: the twelve o'clock stands out for being not only the sole numeral (in red or white gold) but also for being raised, descending separately from the raised sapphire chapter ring; the 'floating' tourbillon; and the long central tripod for the hour and minute hands.
Color elements also play an important design role — darker details on the display such as the power reserve indicator at 4 o'clock, small seconds at 9 o'clock or the 24 seconds tourbillon at 6 o'clock contrast with the light grey of the natural titanium movement and integrated titanium bridges.
On the back of the watch, three NAC-treated anthracite bridges can be seen through the sapphire crystal display back. Greubel Forsey's expertise in extremely fine hand-finishing should not go unnoticed: mirror-polished bevels (many of which feature internal angles), mirror-polished countersinks, straight-graining and snailed decoration on the mainspring barrel. GF also points out that there are also discrete nods to tradition on this contemporary timepiece, for example the domed olive jewels and heat blued screws, which pay elegant homage to master watchmakers of the nineteenth century.
In this closeup, you can see the movement bridges in nickel silver with ruthenium plating which gives them a much darker shade of grey:
Fine specimens of high watchmaking, no doubt! Price will about $450,000, give or take.

Did You Know?
The Tourbillon 24 Secondes is Greubel Forsey's third fundamental invention, a highly-efficient, fast‐rotating – 24‐second revolution – tourbillon cage inclined at 25°, which minimises negative effects of gravity on the oscillator, particularly in stable positions.
SIHH 2013…In addition to its Art Piece 1, Greubel Forsey presents a second new piece at SIHH 2013, the Greubel Forsey Double Tourbillon Technique Black. Of note, this is the first black timepiece in Greubel Forsey collection (excluding some special, one-off pieces), and it is also the first in the GF collection to have a a titanium case and rubber strap. Prior Double Tourbillon Technique pieces were offered in red and white gold.
The Double Tourbillon Technique Black features a unique, open-architecture in an entirely original and innovative interpretation of Greubel Forsey's first fundamental invention (2004), the Double Tourbillon 30°. GF notes that "This construction allows for superior chronometric performance, a minimum volume/maximum balance diameter ratio as well as enabling the beautifully finished mechanism to be fully appreciated." The Double Tourbillon 30° mechanism sits at 6 o'clock, with the unobstructed configuration of the open movement allowing full appreciation of the duo of tourbillons, one rotating inside the other.
Hours and minutes are displayed by luminous, open-worked signature Greubel Forsey hands against a transparent sapphire crystal ring, providing full visual access and luminosity to additional depths of the open dial. The red-tipped, four-pointed, sapphire crystal indicator 6 o'clock rotates in four minutes above the double tourbillon, and indicates 0-60 seconds along a quadrant.
I caught a sneak peek at this piece back in October, but the full reveal of the Greubel Forsey Art Piece 1 (done in collaboration with out-of-this-world talented microsculptor Willard Wigan) was not meant to be. Now here it is, though it is still presented by Greubel Forsey as a "work in progress.". The quick premise is that there is a microsculpture in the left side of the watch. The crown looking device on the left is actually a magnifying glass of sorts — perhaps microscope is a better term — so that you can see the microsculpture that Willard Wigan has created inside of the Art Piece 1. The magnification is 23x and due to the nano-nature of Wigan's work, this is the only way to appreciate Wigan's microsculpture. Refer back to my original preview for more background on Wigan and the jaw-dropping mind blowing work that he does. And now to see if encapsulated in a Greubel Forsey timepiece — well, this is really something special. Note also that Greubel Forsey have decided to include their first fundamental invention — the Double Tourbillon 30° — in the Art Piece 1.
Above it is magnified 23x. Do you see the microsculpture in the watch case (below)???

The Carnaby arches will also be dressed with the Stones' iconic tongue and lips logo. The outdoor installation tells a visual story from the band's creation in the 1960s to the present day.
The installations will launch on 8th November 2012 and will be in place until 6th January 2013. In addition there will be a Rolling Stones pop up shop on Carnaby Street. This will be a curated space that will sell limited edition apparel and prints, plus the band's new greatest hits collection GRRR!, released on 12th November. A limited edition canvas shopping bag will also be available for Carnaby shoppers.
The Rolling Stones/ Carnaby relationship began in the 1960s, when the band would often frequent the shops on Carnaby Street, and just round the corner on Broadwick Street where they rehearsed for their first live shows.
'We are delighted to be working with the most famous band in the world. They have been instrumental in defining popular culture and epitomise the essence of Carnaby's music heritage'.
Simon Quayle, Director, Shaftesbury
Carnaby is London's most exciting destination for shopping and leisure, with a unique mix of global fashion brands, independent stores, unusual boutiques and award winning restaurants. No other area in London can boast such a distinctive heritage for fashion, music and youth culture.

Liverpool moved to within three points of the top of the Barclays Under-21 Premier League as they put five unanswered goals past Tottenham Hotspur, while Arsenal overcame Wolverhampton Wanderers under the watchful eye of Arsene Wenger at Emirates Stadium and West Bromwich Albion won a seven-goal thriller at Reading.
There were five different goalscorers at St Helens's Langtree Park on Monday night as Liverpool routed Tottenham Hotspur. Alex Inglethorpe's side were in outstanding form as Adam Morgan, Cameron Brannagan and Ryan McLaughlin ensured the Reds raced into a 3-0 half-time lead. Brad Smith and Joao Carlos Teixeira then produced two stunning efforts after the break to round off an impressive night's work for the hosts.
Morgan opened the scoring in the 25th minute from 12 yards after a foul on McLaughlin by Dominic Ball resulted in a penalty. Aly Cissokho, making his first appearance for the club he joined in the summer since injuring his ankle in August, produced a slide-rule pass for Brannagan to finish coolly past Jonathan Miles. Liverpool were rampant and McLaughlin made it 3-0 after excellent approach play from Smith, who was also back from injury. The one-way-traffic continued after the break as Smith marked his first match since 14 January with a curler from the edge of the area and substitute Teixeira scored within seconds of coming on by pouncing on a defensive mix-up and producing a deft finish.

Arsenal maintained their unbeaten start to the season with a 2-1 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers at Emirates Stadium on Monday. With 2, 250 people in attendance, including Arsenal's first-team manager Arsene Wenger, the Gunners came out on top thanks to goals by Ryo Miyaichi and Austin Lipman. Manager Steve Gatting made four changes to the side that shared a goalless draw with Fulham last week. Miyaichi gave the hosts the lead on 19 minutes, turning Thomas Eisfeld's corner past Jon Flatt, before the visitors levelled on the stroke of half-time when Tim Jakobsson appeared unmarked to steer Kristian Kostma's strike past Damien Martinez.
In an open second half the Gunners produced the winner as Miyaichi picked out substitute Lipman, the scorer of two goals in the 4-1 win over Napoli in the UEFA Youth League last week, to unleash a swerving 73rd-minute effort.

West Brom were on the wrong end of the same scoreline against Newcastle United last week, but this time emerged triumphant from a seven-goal thriller with Reading at Hogwood Park. Jake Taylor, fresh from a cameo performance for the first team at Burnley at the weekend, gave the Royals the lead with the first of two goals after just five minutes, while Gozie Ugwu doubled the hosts' lead three minutes later with his fifth goal of the campaign. But Albion were level midway through the half thanks to a strike by Matej Vydra and a Kemar Roofe header.
In an open half Reading again took the lead, on 27 minutes, when Taylor curled a free-kick in off a post, but, with just 10 minutes remaining, the visitors equalised again, through substitute Joe Ward, and with eight minutes later Alex Jones kept his cool to score the winner from the penalty spot.

Ibou Touray scored a last-gasp winner to earn Everton a narrow victory over Blackburn at Ewood Park and move Alan Stubbs's charges to within three points of the top. Eric Kinder's young side had battled back from going a goal down when Darragh Lenihan scored his first Rovers goal midway through the second half to cancel out Conor Grant's spectacular opening strike for the Blues. Touray had the last laugh when scrambling the ball in from a corner kick.
Blackburn report | Everton report
David Moberg Karlsson was on target as Sunderland salvaged a point against Aston Villa at Tamworth. The Black Cats deployed a strong side including El-Hadji Ba, Duncan Watmore, Connor Wickham and Moberg Karlsson but fell behind on the half-hour when Riccardo Calder converted Andras Stieber's corner. The visitors levelled on 62 minutes when Moberg Karlsson was the first to the rebound after George Honeyman's shot had hit a post.
Jeff Schlupp scored twice as Leicester also left it late to secure a 2-1 success against Stoke City at King Power Stadium. It took just six minutes for Steve Beaglehole's side to take the lead as Schlupp raced on to Tom Hopper's flick-on to rifle in the opening goal and although James Alabi pulled the visitors level with an opportunistic strike from close range after the break, Schlupp had the last laugh with a late second.
Leicester report | Stoke report
Middlesbrough put on their best display of the season as they overcame a strong Southampton side at Hartlepool United's Victoria Park. Richard Smallwood gave the hosts the lead with a thumping sixth-minute volley, before Saints levelled through Omar Rowe's firm angled strike past Dimi Konstantopoulos midway through the first period. Boro rallied and produced two goals early in the second half as Luke Williams finished off the good work of Emmanuel Ledesma, before the Argentinian forward crowned a fine performance with a goal following a one-two with Smallwood.
Middlesbrough report | Southampton report
Striker Adam Campbell scored his first goal of the campaign as Newcastle came from behind to earn a point against Bolton Wanderers at Northumberland FA. Willie Donachie and Peter Beardsley's charges fell behind when Tom Youngs scored from close range two minutes after the interval, but responded on 72 minutes when Gabriel Obertan raced down the left and cut the ball back for Campbell to level.
