- For my 10th Anniversary my husband said I could get a antique wedding ring like I had always wanted. I spent months searching online for the perfect one. I viewed many rings on the Gesner website but I was very nervous about buying an antique ring online. However, the staff at Gesner was very helpful, friendly and professional. The response from the company was always prompt either by email or phone. I was so pleased with the high level of customer service! Then I received the ring and it was more beautiful than what it looked like in the pictures. I am so pleased with my ring and look forward to wearing it for many years to come. I would highly recommend Gesner Estate Jewelry!!! If you are nervous about buying online just call them, the staff is amazing! I also want to personally thank Erik who was very knowledgeable and helpful through the whole process with me. Furthermore with his professionalism is what made me choose Gesner! Review by Valerie P. (Posted on 8/15/2012)
- I purchased a beautiful Art Deco emerald engagement ring from Gesner in September 2013. I could not have been more delighted with the outstanding customer service provided. Communication and delivery was super fast. The ring was exactly as described. They are an extremely honest and trustworthy company. I recommend Gesner Jewelers wholeheartedly and without reservation. Review by Tim Hall (Posted on 11/26/2013)
- My boyfriend and I had been searching for a long time for an antique engagement ring but were unable to find anything that quite fit the bill. We live in Michigan and just happened to stumble upon the Gesner website. After a simple search, we found two rings that we absolutely loved. We were nervous about ordering something without seeing it but after working with Erik via email, he helped us decide between the two and put our minds at ease. The ring arrived today and it is even more beautiful that we had thought. We could not be happier! Review by Jacqueline (Posted on 7/11/2013)
- Elaine, Ken, and Shanel were a superb help to me...in helping make such beautiful gifts for my fiance, mother and mother-in-law! I thank you very much and look forward to seeing you again. Review by George S. (Posted on 2/22/2012)
- Great customer service! The staff is so friendly and knowledgeable! Review by Mary S. (Posted on 2/22/2012)
- I ordered a ring online from Gesner's website. Due to me not being from the states, there were some issues with the Paypal payment, and when I contacted Gesner they were very helpful. The actual item I bought was stunning, and the description of the item was accurate. I also got a nice gift box and a certificate. I very much recommend Gesner Estate Jewelry. Review by Martin A. (Posted on 7/25/2014)
- I have been beyond impressed with the wonderful buying experiences I've had with Gesner Estate Jewelry! When I recently purchased a ring from them, I was disappointed to find that the gorgeous ring just looked too big on my small hand. They were wonderful about the return and went above and beyond to help me find a 1 carat art deco that would look more appropriate. I am beyond thrilled with the beautiful ring they ended up helping me find. It is PERFECT. I can't stop staring at it! They promptly refunded the difference between the two rings and had the new one on my finger in two days. I also recently had another ring I purchased from them re-sized. Not only do you get their wonderful customer service, you also get free ring sizing as long as you own the ring! For all of these reasons, I will always shop at Gesner first when in the market for a new piece. Thank you! Review by Michelle P. (Posted on 1/16/2014)
- The sales staff was extremely helpful in helping me purchase the ideal diamond engagement ring. My soon to be wife is elated! Review by Anthony Z. (Posted on 2/22/2012)
- I found an amazing engagement ring & wedding band with the help of Sherrie. We loved working with her and Frank as well. Every time we would go into the store, everyone was so helpful and cheerful which made the experience so great. We will highly recommend your store to everyone! I am a very satisfied and happy customer. Review by Kennan L. (Posted on 2/22/2012)
Having purchased a beautiful Art Deco diamond ring from Australia I could not be happier, the ring is as described, came with a valuation certificate and is stunning. The communication during the purchase was amazing. Recommended to all.

Trillaphon: Comrade Tentacles and the Commie Love-In Experience Invade Brooklynmerica.
Hydrogen: Beneath the inevitable sickeningly happy ending is a really terrific moral: if only we killed all the whalers, no boat would ever sink again! Hooray!
Trillaphon: I thought the moral was that you should never believe anyone who says that a bunch of people died when the Titanic sank and instead an armada of magic talking whales miracling everyone away to safety they just sort of drowned or froze to death, and you should also probably call that person a liar and publicly humiliate them with your illuminating Titanic knowledge.
Hydrogen: Of course, apparently nobody ever dies in a shipwreck, so who gives a fuck really?
Trillaphon: Whiskers the Mouse died. He gave a fuck. He gave a fuck like you wouldn't even believe. A fuck you couldn't possibly understand. And that's why he's a hero for all ratkind, and how this bottle of bourbon got into my hand.
Hydrogen: He's giving a fuck with the rat baby Jesus now.
Trillaphon: Amen.
Trillaphon: Okay, so, the idea here is that dolphins and rats and shit are all so intelligent that they can plan, orchestrate, and execute elaborate intelligence and counter-espionage operations, organize literal fleets of the largest and most powerful animals on earth etc...
Trillaphon: ...yet the entire premise is 'oh no, the poor helpless whales are going to get hunted by the mean greedy men whose entire life we could destroy in a second with a couple gerbil squeaks to radio in an airstrike of 90 ton death seagulls'.
Hydrogen: Alright, I'm changing my answer, that's the real moral of the movie.

Yesterday the Landmarks Preservation Commission approved plans for townhouses on Pearl Street in Dumbo. The LPC sent the plans back to the drawing board in February. Since then, developers Alloy Development reduced the building's height by a floor. Curbed attended the hearing, where one commissioner said, "I think it's a little landmark in the making." According to Curbed, the five townhouses will each have "four bedrooms, three baths, 20-foot parlor floor ceilings, fireplaces, skylit rooms throughout, and roof terraces." Alloy will begin demolishing the existing garage at the site in a few months. A rendering of the proposed houses can be seen at center right in the photo above.

How did those preservationists and architects get appointed to the LPC when their understanding of good practice is so inferior to Ben's? Maybe they bribed someone or it was nespotism or something.
More solid middle-class housing for families in that mid-range two to five million dollars a year bracket.
Hopefully they will be more attractive in person. They do look quite ugly in the rendering which in my experience is almost always nicer than the real buildings.
This building will have a noise issue being right next to the bridge. Im sure it will be whisper quiet inside but you'll never be able to open your windows without hearing the roar of a train every 5 – 10 minutes.
The LPC has a specific mandate. They cannot regulate all aspects of new design in historic districts; they can only assess the impact on the area – usually through massing and material selection. I think it looks quite nice, sort of like the Enrique Norten building in Park Slope. I'm not surprised the architects on the Commission liked it.
m926bk hit the nail on the head; LPC was looking at height and scale issues. While I'm not swooning over this design, this area has a history as an industrial zone there is a lot more leeway in materials and designs that they will approve. If this had been proposed for a brownstone neighborhood they would have been repeatedly raked over the coals. Still, we know there will be some contemporary-design buildings built; which is often better than a grim pastiche of past styles that pop-up elsewhere.

'A big balancing act' for AID Upstate
AID Upstate began its work in 1987, "back in the day when people were calling and saying, 'Somebody ate off my plate. Do I need to get new silverware?'" said executive director Andy Hall.
Suddenly, more and more gay men who were sick began showing up at the Greenville County health department.
In response, the health department teamed with a nursing home to help the men meet end-of-life needs such as counseling and drawing up powers of attorney. They also took it upon themselves to educate the public about HIV.
Superstitions have faded, and more money is available to help those with HIV. But strict rules control how government money is spent.
For example, money allocated for medicines can't be used to transport people to a doctor's office or pharmacy. It can't be used to provide food to maintain a proper nutritional balance or to help someone who has become homeless find a place to live.
"It has limited us from being quite as holistic," Hall said.
The rules improve accountability and challenge the organization to find other sources of financing, but they also create a blizzard of paperwork.
"It's a big balancing act for me. If we lose the funding, then everybody suffers," Hall said. "But if we have all the documentation we need but no one is served, then we haven't done anything either."

Range Hood with this Rangetop?
We're a few weeks until tear out and I realized we haven't figured out the range hood yet.
Money is getting tighter, so I'm curious what you folks think of this Cavaliere hood.
The rangetop mfr recommends a 850 CFM hood, this one is 900 CFM with 4 speeds, and the sone rating indicates it's quiet. We like the style.
We only have room for a 36" so I'm glad the baffle filter surface is so wide.
Here's the rangetop: http://www.dacor.com/Our-Products/Categories/Cooktops/Distinctive-Gas-Rangetops.aspx
Here's the possible hood: http://www.cavalierehoods.com/products/Cavaliere-AP238%252dPS31%252d36-Wall-Mount-Range-Hood.html#!prettyPhoto[pp_gal]/2/
43db to 68db is the sound rating on this. The two low speeds won't be that noisy. Setting 3 will be around 62 db, that is hard to talk around but won't impede your body language. 68db is loud, but not mind numbing.
In my experience, all hoods are quiet on low and 900 cfm should be quiet. The extraction and size are also good for this rangetop.
That being said, any hood with 6 inch duct will be noisy IMO
Thanks for your comments aprince. We're looking forward to a decent cooktop. We think most anything will be an improvement over our current worn out microwave hood and 30 year old electric cooktop,
Agreed on "anything would be an improvement on the OTR microwave hood". The match between the hood and the cooktop looks good - on a practical note make sure that the ducting and external ventcap is installed to the highest standard. Excessive noise from range hoods is generally as a result of bad ducting - to small, to many bends or restricted due to installation short cuts.
Here is a link that might be useful: Range Hood Ducting
Good point jackals. Our GC crawled into the attic a few weeks ago to look at several things and said the roof vent on our one level home is in an optimum location: almost a direct line to the range hood. It'll have a very slight angle, but no turns.

Firstdraft Inc, Sydney's Longest Running Non-profit Artist Collective, Gets Acommodation Grant
City of Sydney Council has approved an Accommodation Grant for the Riley Street Depot in Woolloomooloo to become a new artist studio space.
The three year accommodation grant has been awarded to Firstdraft Inc, Sydney's longest running non-profit artist collective. The City will work closely with Firstdraft to activate the new artist studio space as soon as possible, with a program likely to include artist residencies, workshops, exhibitions, markets and open studio days.
Lord Mayor Clover Moore MP said: "Providing space for art in the inner city is vital to Sydney as a global city and cultural capital. Encouraging creative industries and cultural activity has social and economic benefits for Sydney, and is all part of our vision for Sustainable Sydney 2030."
"The City invests significantly in cultural activity through a grants program, providing significantly more space for community organisations than any other Council in NSW," Ms Moore said.
On Monday night Council also approved an Accommodation Grant for use of the Cook and Philip community room by Catholic Care Sydney's Alive Program, which provides assistance to highly disadvantaged homeless youth.
City of Sydney's Accommodation Grants Program currently supports 68 organisations in 47 buildings and is worth over two million dollars in revenue forgone.
Fifteen of those organisations are arts based including PACT Youth Theatre, Gallery 4A, Tom Bass Sculpture School Studio, and Darlinghurst Theatre Company.

Asians muscling into social media world
Monday 27 September 2010
Asians are muscling their way into traditionally Western-dominated social media networks such as Facebook, Twitter and Internet blogs, prompting major players to sit up and take notice.
With more than 220 million bloggers in China alone and nearly three out of five people in Singapore having a Facebook account, Asia is presenting a huge commercial opportunity for online advertising.
Social media guru Thomas Crampton, Asia-Pacific director of Ogilvy Public Relations' global social media team, said regional users were jumping on the social media bandwagon at a faster rate than the rest of the world.
"Asia is... the most exciting part of the world for what's going on in social media," he told AFP on the sidelines of a social media forum in Singapore.
Facebook launched an Asian sales office in Singapore this month in order to to be better placed to sell ads to companies aiming for the region's consumers.
"The Asian market's a very, very big market for us," said Blake Chandlee, Facebook's commercial director for regions outside North America and western Europe. "It's an enormous opportunity for us."
Chandlee said Asia was the fastest-growing among Facebook's geographical markets, or "theatres", despite restrictions on access in China.
Crampton said the growing number of Asians connected to the Internet was a key driver behind the region's social media craze.
A report in July by research firm Nielsen said that "while the US pioneered much of the early Web 2.0 and social media innovation, Asia is playing no small role in shaping - and in some cases leading - the new social media landscape."
The report added that "Asian social media adoption rates have surpassed Western adoption rates".
As of December 2009, China had 221 million bloggers or more than twice the number in the United States, it added.
Crampton noted that Facebook's ranking of leading markets showed Indonesia was already a close third behind the United States and Britain in monthly active subscribers - and poised to take second spot within months.
Facebook refuses to give regional or country breakdowns, saying only that it has more than 500 million users worldwide.
Data from market research firm Inside Network estimated that monthly active Asia-Pacific users of Facebook numbered 117 million, or more than 20 percent of the global figure.
In June this year Asians also "tweeted" the most on micro-blogging platform Twitter, outpacing the United States, according to data from Internet research company Semiocast.
"Twitter users in Asia, mainly located in Japan, Indonesia and South Korea, account for 37 percent of tweets," said Semiocast, which studied 2.9 million tweets over a period of 24 hours on June 22.
It said US-generated tweets now account for only 25 percent of messages on Twitter, down from 30 percent in March.
Asia-Pacific users are also creating social media content "to an extent that is unheard of almost anywhere in the world," Crampton added.
Data from research firm Forrester showed Chinese, South Korean, Japanese and Australians creating video, music and text content for social media at a much higher rate than Americans did last year.
And despite China's ban on Facebook and Twitter, the nation still boasts the largest number of social media users in any country thanks to locally-developed substitutes, the Hong Kong-based Crampton said.
"What has happened as a result is that domestic players have arrived, and these domestic players are the rough equivalents of what is happening internationally," he added.
He cited Chinese video-sharing website YouKu and social networking site Qzone as "being one hundred percent replacements" for foreign sites such as YouTube and Facebook.

Bears WR 'heard' of players using Viagra to gain edge
WR 'heard' of players using Viagra to gain edge
Posted: Thursday, November 29, 2012
Associated Press
Bears wide receiver Brandon Marshall says he has heard of players using Viagra in an effort to gain an edge on the field.
Marshall made the comment Wednesday when he was asked about a growing number of suspensions tied to amphetamines, including the ADHD drug Adderall.
Marshall said he didn't know much about Adderall, but then suggested Viagra, which is used to treat impotence in men, could be seen by players as a way to boost their energy.
"I know guys, it's such competitive league and guys try anything just to get that edge," he said. "I've heard of guys using Viagra, seriously, because the blood, it's supposed to thin . I don't know. Some crazy stuff. It's kind of scary with some of these chemicals that are in some of these things, so you have to be careful."
Marshall said he doesn't take medication "of any sort" and noted that the NFL's drug policy is strict.
"Any time you take anything over the counter, if you don't approve it with your training room, you can get popped," he said. "Some of it's fair, but some of it kind of puts you in a tough spot as a professional athlete. Because the only thing you'll see is getting busted for PEDs, but it could be something over the counter for a little sickness. You just have to be on top of your Ps and Qs.
NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said Viagra is not a banned substance and declined further comment.
Since the start of last season, more than 10 players suspended for failing drug tests have publicly blamed it on taking Adderall, a stimulant experts say could provide a competitive advantage by increasing concentration and possibly aggression.
But an impotence drug? Bears offensive coordinator Mike Tice seemed surprised by Marshall's comment.
"Viagra?" he said. "I've never heard of such a thing. He's making that up. He's got to be making that up. You've got to be kidding me."

Sounds like bs to me. I think Marshall is just trying to include Viagara as one of his sposnors by dropping their name.

Dazu is a city famed for its grand scale rock carvings - and, when it's says grand scale that's exactly what it means - but there's not a lot else there to see.

Almost everything you buy has at the very least, outer, middle and singular packaging like those Russian nesting dolls.

This morning we took a bus to the Dazu Rock Carvings near the village of Baodingshan ( about three hours by slow bus (traffic) west of Chongqing. The Dazu Rock Carvings are a series of Chinese Buddhist rock sculptures and carvings, dating back to the 7th century AD, depicting and influenced by Tibetan schooled Buddhism, Confucian philosophy and Taoist beliefs. The Dazu Rock Carvings are a magnificent set of Buddhist sculptures carved directly into the stone cliffs ...

Maria Duval - Regarding the Ring of Re

I received the same letter,same picture today.My skepticism led me to investigate.
This is the only site that came up for the supposed Ring of Re. I have found nothing in Egyptian history about it.
Also, if it was so lucky, how did she get in such a wreck in the first place?
I totally agree with the other reviews. If all these famous people think so highly of this ring, why do we not hear about it from them?
Surely if it brought them so much luck, they would want to share that information with others, wouldn't they?I am also a single mom and will not waste my money on such a scam.117dde59 review #131623
Starry Sep 27, 2012
My Uncle used to be lucky in everything. Then Maria Duval sent him this letter for the Ring of Re. The personalized portion of the letter stated the problems he WAS having ay that moment so he sent for a ring only he paid $40.00 for it.
Well his luck had never been so bad. He is losing his life's work, his home, everything pretty much acquired in 85 years of living. I tried to get him to chuck it but he still believes. He just shrugs and says, " But without the ring, maybe things would be much worse? Who knows? I will keep it. "
Plus he can't figure out how she knew his specific problems.
But how can we deal with people of superstition like that?
Sure she has more money than she can handle. She probably has money from one of her men, and all the many people she got money from.
I just got one today. It actually sounds threatening. " If you feel so lucky that you do not order this ring for $7.00 + 30 days guarantee I will not cash your check, what makes you believe that your good luck will stay with you? "
So what? I don't believe in this so that makes me feel lucky? Um no. Since October 2011 to this day still, my luck has been very bad, much worse than before. But I'm still not going to buy her ring of Re.
So is it a threat she will take my ' Good Luck ' away? lol! Too funny! My Father always taught me having bad luck was better than having no luck at all for out of all bad luck comes good luck if you are... willing to look and see it. That is good enough for me. I do not need to research it. But I DID want to see what it looked like however, lol!

I'm so sorry to hear about your illness. May God bless you. I did recieve both letters. I believe in psychic abilities, but this woman is taking advantage of people big time. I had a bad feeling about her, and no one like this, sending out letters in the mail or otherwise, will ever get my money. Best wishes for you. You have my prayers.

as hard as it is this day and time why would someone want to take advantage of someone. I recieved the letter a few days ago and i tell u no lie, I was going to borrow the money to order the ring but something told me to look up any information about this person or organization, im glad did thanks guys0 0 Reply

I agree with Michael, prayer will keep one much safer. I found this strange as I received this letter a few days after an attempted scam from Nevada also, or at least that is where he said he was located. This man ask me if I was believer, stated how strong his faith was. When I researched his "International Winners Corp" and found it to be a hugh scam, I told him my findings. This really faithful man's final words to me were "have a nice f-----g day". Wonder if he sold my name to this woman?0 0 Reply

i received this letter today 6-22-11 and i also did research looking for info on the RING OF RE. nothing at all. plus im almost done reading the bible and there is no mention of it in there.
im a partially psychic person. everyone has the capabilities for that and each person is developed in the stages that they have learned in, as far as life teaching.
and as i was reading the letter from DESTINY/marie duval, i was receiving some energy from further down the page, which wasnt where i was reading yet. so i decided to see what was pulling me, and there was an ENLARGED picture of the design on the ring of re. and i realized, even as i am writing, that the power itself is in the design and placement. its basically ENERGY. so if you are dwelling on negative thoughts, then it will be magnified, and vice versa.
i believe, if you draw this EXACT design on anything, it will have the same power. the larger the better
im no nut case, and i dont like these scams either. for crying out loud, the least they could do was make the rings out of stainless steel or silver so that the jewelry would be able to be worn daily as a fashion statement.

Sent $20.00 for 2 rings and $10.00 for some kind of good luck something or other on 4/3/2011- during the black moon. Has anyone ever gotten anything out of this? Has anyone ever gotten their money back? I have cancer and 3 months left to live. I thought what do I have to lose I am going to die. No change in my luck yet. I am still poor and I am still going to die. The only question I really have is how did this woman get my address? How did she know I was broke? How did she know I was going to die? What the *** is this sh**?0 0 Reply

If you have a real gift of sight, that comes from God and their is no cost for that. It is said in the Bible that you don't put a price on God's gifts.0 0 Reply

This letter, this woman, this "good luck" *** is just that, ***! Oh my gosh! I can't believe people actually send in their money and buy these things. Talismans and rings that are ADJUSTABLE (meaning they are bendy and cheap) and all this garbage. My Ring of Re would only cost me $25 according to the letter I got today. So, who else got screwed with the $45 bit and now I'm getting a discount???!!! Oh man0 0 Reply

I agree with llasua If she was wearing the ring how did she get in such an accident. I received the picture and letter today and personally I think this ring is just another scam to get your money. I have two young kids and a husband who travels a lot The 45.00 requested by her. I would rather use for food and clothes for me my husband and kids. At least I know the outcome of my expenses. Also How do we know this woman
didn't just walk outside her door one day and took a picture of a car that was in a similar accident trying to push it off as her own. Why waste your time on such Bull**** if you or someone you know receive this letter I advise you to just tear it up and throw it away.
