lacquer coating agate RUINS quality!
By jewel-maven
from montreal, quebec
Hope Mr. Albert reads this review.....This is my 2nd purchase from the Alchemia line and both times the gem got coated with the lacquer which Mr. Albert said the metal was coated in. So now it is obvious to me that this coating is put onto the items AFTER the gemstones are set....not a good result at all. In this case of the agate ring, the slice agate now looks like a slab of PLASTIC...cheap looking. In the 1st item I bought, which was a large blister pearl pendent, I noticed this coating over the pearl, and from very close up I did not like it (also it didn't feel like a genuine pearl anymore-too sleek) however it still remained an attractive pc. of jewellery so I kept it. In this case, this coating has ruined the look of the sliced agate and I don't know whether I should return it to TSC as this option has become very expensive since we now pay to return.............or keep the ring and try somehow to remove the coating. I really hope Charles Albert sees this review and re-thinks his coating method, because his line of jewellery is very chic, but if the gems are being visually affected negatively by this coating, he should be aware of it AND CHANGE IT!
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Disappointed by colour
By Aim
from Toronto
I SO wanted to love this ring. The advertised colour is gorgeous - sea green. Unfortunately, the ring that I received is much duller and the colour is muted. I realize that it all depends on the cut of the stone, but the slice I received is not at all as spectacular as the one advertised and I'm disappointed to have to send it back.

Are Antidepressants Killers?
Byron's Comments:
Another reason to avoid antidepressants.
Study Title:Antidepressant Use and Risk of Incident Cardiovascular Morbidity and Mortality Among Postmenopausal Women in the Women's Health Initiative Study
Study Abstract:
Background Antidepressants are commonly prescribed medications, but their effect on cardiovascular morbidity and mortality remains unclear.
Methods Prospective cohort study of 136 293 community-dwelling postmenopausal women in the Women's Health Initiative (WHI). Women taking no antidepressants at study entry and who had at least 1 follow-up visit were included. Cardiovascular morbidity and all-cause mortality for women with new antidepressant use at follow-up (n = 5496) were compared with those characteristics for women taking no antidepressants at follow-up (mean follow-up, 5.9 years).
Results Antidepressant use was not associated with coronary heart disease (CHD). Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) use was associated with increased stroke risk (hazard ratio [HR],1.45, [95% CI, 1.08-1.97]) and all-cause mortality (HR,1.32 [95% CI, 1.10-1.59]). Annualized rates per 1000 person-years of stroke with no antidepressant use and SSRI use were 2.99 and 4.16, respectively, and death rates were 7.79 and 12.77. Tricyclic antidepressant (TCA) use was associated with increased risk of all-cause mortality (HR,1.67 [95% CI, 1.33-2.09]; annualized rate, 14.14 deaths per 1000 person-years). There were no significant differences between SSRI and TCA use in risk of any outcomes. In analyses by stroke type, SSRI use was associated with incident hemorrhagic stroke (HR, 2.12 [95% CI, 1.10-4.07]) and fatal stroke (HR, 2.10 [95% CI, 1.15-3.81]).
Conclusions In postmenopausal women, there were no significant differences between SSRI and TCA use in risk of CHD, stroke, or mortality. Antidepressants were not associated with risk of CHD. Tricyclic antidepressants and SSRIs may be associated with increased risk of mortality, and SSRIs with increased risk of hemorrhagic and fatal stroke, although absolute event risks are low. These findings must be weighed against quality of life and established risks of cardiovascular disease and mortality associated with untreated depression.

Portland, OR (Sports Network) - The Bucks finished with six players in double figures, including Drew Gooden, who poured in 19 points to lead Milwaukee to a 116-87 blowout of the Portland Trail Blazers at the Rose Garden on Tuesday.
Carlos Delfino tallied 16 points, while Mike Dunleavy, Beno Udrih and Brandon Jennings netted 15 points apiece for the Bucks. Monta Ellis finished with 14 points and nine assists as Milwaukee notched its sixth consecutive victory.
LaMarcus Aldridge and Wesley Matthews scored 21 points apiece and pulled down 12 and nine rebounds, respectively. Raymond Felton finished with 18 points to go with nine assists for Portland, which has now dropped four of its last five.
"Too many crooked numbers up here on the stat sheet," remarked Portland interim head coach Kaleb Canales, who was making his home debut. "We didn't do a good job defensively tonight. You have to give them credit. They are a hot team and they played like they've been playing and we didn't take them out of their game."
Gooden and Dunleavy hit back-to-back three-pointers to cap the scoring in the first frame, as the Bucks to a 25-23 edge into the second.
Milwaukee opened the second on an 11-1 surge that Matthews finally quelled with a triple to bring the margin to 36-27.
The visitors quickly responded as Delfino sank consecutive treys and later added a layup to close out a 12-5 run to extend the lead to 48-32 with four minutes left in the second.
Gooden would finish the first half with 17 points, three rebounds and two assists to give the Bucks a 54-43 lead heading into the locker room.
With the lead down to nine and over eight minutes left in the third, Ellis connected on a three-point try, sparking a 13-0 surge that Jennings would cap with a triple of his own to give the Bucks a comfortable 71-49 lead just before the midway point of the third frame.
"We passed the ball well, we shot the ball well and played pretty good defense," said Bucks head coach Scott Skiles. "Our only issue was rebounding, but we were able to build a big enough lead, pull away and really take control."
The difference stood at 18, 82-64, after three, and the Bucks scored the first eight of the fourth quarter to put any thoughts of a comeback to rest, as the visitors cruised the rest of the way for the double-digit victory.

He needs her for his clan. He wants her for himself. Can he have both?
Toran Lathan never expected to become Laird, and he never expected to meet a woman like Aileanna Shaw. Her healing ability is just what his people need, but Toran cannot resist her beauty. Yet will loving him destroy her ability to heal?
Aileanna Shaw has a healing touch - and a special talent she must keep secret. Stolen from her home by a marauding army, she's kidnapped again by the Highland Laird she heals. Is she a prize of war or the prize of his heart?
While Toran battles the invading lowland army, he also battles his desire for Aileanna. And Aileanna must decide if she can trust her secrets to this fierce warrior who needs her talent but wants her love.

"A captivating hero and heroine and a deft plot make this a must-[listen] historical romance." (New York Times best-selling author Rebecca York)
~~~"HOPEFUL ROMANTIC"~~~ *** Love Audio Books....Especially Historical Romances *** ~~ "Reviews Should Never Contain Spoilers ~~
"No Surprises."
I actually liked the "talented healer" storyline of this book. The Heroine, Aileanna, is a strong woman who has the power to heal and is sought after by other clans because of her ability. The Hero, Toran, is a powerful Laird who not only notices Aileanna's "talent" but her beauty. Although I found this story and the characters interesting it unfortunately is low on excitement and high on predictability. It had glimpses of adventure throughout the book but lacked an inspiring impact.
If you like simple highland romances without surprises (or many twists and turns) then you will probably enjoy this book.
It took forever! I kept waiting for the story to pick up the pace, something, towards the end anything to move the book along.
Wow. Did a good job with pronunciations.
Unabridged is always better
Don't waste your time.
Hot, real, interesting!
A big thumbs up on the narration, all the characters were so distinct! Very enjoyable to listen to.
"Great story"
Yes, it's written well, fluent and never boring
None, it's a book on its own
A sexy voice
It spellbound me
