Does Grier need big run to keep his job?
The USD men's basketball team opens the West Coast Conference Tournament in Las Vegas on Saturday playing the University of San Francisco, and the teams' two previous meetings this year speak volumes about the what-ifs of the Toreros' regular season.
In San Francisco in mid-January, the Dons' Avry Holmes hit a step-back jumper with 0.5 seconds left for the game-winner. Crushing.
Nineteen days later at the Jenny Craig Pavilion, USD blew a 10-point lead in the second half, shooting just 2 of 7 down the stretch while committing three turnovers. Maddening.
Chris Sarbaugh, a key sub at guard, wasn't even suited up for the rematch while serving a one-game suspension for a "non-academic eligibility issue."
And that's the way it's been for the Toreros in their 16-15 season: tantalizing close losses (eight by seven points or fewer), near-wins against powers San Diego State, New Mexico and Gonzaga, and some very poor play in the crunch moments of tight games.
Easily the highlight is a 3-point win over the then-No. 25-ranked Zags two weeks ago.
The Toreros got a first-round bye for the WCC Tournament by finishing sixth in the league standings at 7-11, but the losing record against their closest peers is once again bringing up speculation of whether seventh-year head coach Bill Grier will retain his job.
Last year, the Toreros made a strong run in the WCC Tournament, beating BYU before losing in overtime to St. Mary's in the semifinals. When Athletic Director Ky Snyder announced the return of Grier, he said, "I'm very satisfied the way (the program) is going. I'm confident we can be a postseason team next year."
It has been speculated that Snyder intended that statement to be a quiet, but firm "make the postseason or else" mandate for Grier.
"I still think we have a good opportunity to play in the postseason," Snyder said on Thursday. "There's a lot of basketball to be played."
Beyond the NIT, the other postseason events are the 32-team CollegeInsider.com Postseason Tournament (CIT) and the 16-team College Basketball Invitational (CBI). Snyder said USD would hope to be considered for both.
"This is about making the experience the best we can for the kids," he said.
If the Toreros were to go one-and-done in the WCC, they'd finish with a .500 record – their sixth straight non-winning season.
Snyder would not discuss the job status of Grier, saying the entire team's performance would be evaluated when the season is over. Of USD's results over the past several years, Snyder said, "We've come a long way, but we're not as far as we want to go."
Snyder noted that the team's RPI of 154 is better than it has been since after Grier's first season, but the progress has been mostly incremental. The most recent RPIs, starting with 2010-11: 307, 198, 160.
To be considered by Snyder is that the current cast of Toreros is not what Grier envisioned a year ago. John Sinis opted to remain in his native Greece to play in the pros; fifth-year senior Mike Davis suffered a hand injury that put him out for the season; highly regarded freshman forward Brett Bailey is averaging a far-from-impressive 2.8 points per game.

Originally written on The Football Fan Spot | Last updated 11/13/14
The Miami Dolphins already extended one player heading into a contract year, Cameron Wake, this offseason, but it appears they are not done. According to the Miami Herald, the Dolphins are expected to begin work on an extension with defensive tackle Randy Starks, as well as possibly cornerback/safety Sean Smith and wide receiver Brian Hartline, in the coming weeks. It makes sense that they'd try to extend these players now because, as they announced earlier today, they will be using the franchise tag on Jake Long next offseason if a deal can't be worked out between the Dolphins and their former #1 overall pick before then. Long and the Dolphins are currently far apart on a deal and the Dolphins might feel it would be easier to extend some of their "lesser" players now and deal with Long later, rather than the other way around. It's interesting to note that Reggie Bush, who is also heading into a contract year, was not named in the report. Bush had a strong season for the Dolphins in...

If you want to travel back in time to ancient Rome or Greece, check out our collection of Roman/Greek costumes. You can be a god or goddess; a mortal human warrior; a mythical satyr, minotaur or Cyclops; or a hero like Hercules or Odysseus. You can act out stories from mythology, or make up your own. We have costumes for men, women and kids, along with accessories to add that perfect finishing detail!
Where did those gods & goddesses come from? The Greeks have a lengthy creation story that tells how the Olympian gods came to be. When the Romans conquered Greece in 146 BC they absorbed Greek culture and religion, but added a few touches of their own. That's why most of the gods and goddesses have two names--a Greek name and a Roman one. The Romans also believed that their emperors descended from the gods.
What did the Greeks and Romans wear? Where did the Spartans fit in? Weren't they all pretty much the same? Didn't they all wear togas? No, they weren't the same, and they didn't all wear togas.
Athens and Sparta were the two pre-eminent city-states of ancient Greece, and their citizens wore similar clothing. Men and women alike wore a tunic called a chiton. It was two fabric rectangles--linen in summer, wool in winter--joined over the shoulders and down the sides with pins or clips. A man's chiton was shorter than a woman's, and Spartans' clothing was shorter and skimpier than Athenians'. Spartans often went nude, even in public.
Only Romans, and not all of them, wore togas. It was a privilege, for adult male Roman citizens only. Free-born women and children, as well as slaves and foreigners, just wore a tunic. Married women wore a draped outer garment called a stola over their tunics.
What's the story about soldiers and gladiators? The Spartans were by far the best soldiers of the Greek world. All Spartan boys had military training and all men were expected to serve in the army if needed until they reached age 60. Athens valued intellectual pursuits above warfare, though it did have an excellent navy. Even the Spartans only fought when necessary. The Greeks didn't fight for fun or as a spectator sport. The Romans did.
At its height the Roman Empire had the greatest army the world had ever seen. It was a way that free-born men could earn distinction. But warfare and sport were entirely different things. The gladiators who fought before spectators in the Colosseum were often from the dregs of society. Prisoners of war. Slaves. Criminals. Gladiators could atone for their crimes or win their freedom, IF they survived. The Colosseum was a brutal place. The men (and a few women) who fought there rarely did so by their own choice.
So if you want to re-enact the first Olympic games, a gladiatorial bout, or a session of the Roman Senate, try one of our great costumes!

Today's article will be about the difference between Unheated versus Heated Sapphires, how each type has a different market in the marketplace, the different types of treatments in Sapphires today.
Sapphires, which are the third hardest mineral on the Mohs scale of hardness, are the beautiful gemstones, commonly worn in jewelry. If you talk about unheated and heated Sapphires, then you will come to know that there is a big difference between both the Sapphire categories. The Natural Sapphire, also known as Untreated or Unheated Sapphire, are exceedingly spendy and the range starts from $ 5000 per carat, while the Heated or Heat treated Sapphire price range starts from $ 1 per carat.
In the market, almost 95% of the Sapphires are heat treated. The high treated Sapphire is the lowest is the price. There are different levels of heat treatment which affect the price of Sapphire. If you are a gemstone buyer then you should know how to distinguish between unheated and heated Sapphire. This is a very important skill a buyer should learn. If you do not want to be scammed for what you are buying, then you should check the certification of the treatment and for that you should have knowledge about the certifications.
As you can see in the image above the difference of both Heated and Unheated Sapphire, it is clear that the heat treatment increases the attractiveness of the stone. In the above image you can see the cloud (with nano silk) inclusion in the Natural Sapphire, which become disappeared after the Heat treatment.
Same for the image below, you can clearly see the change in clarity and color after the heat treatment.
The difference between Unheated and Heated Sapphire is like the difference between processed and natural food. Natural food is always healthier than processed food. The heat treated Sapphire lost their effectiveness almost to zero.
Unheated Sapphire
This is true that gemstone market is flooded with the heat treated Sapphires but, it is not impossible to find Unheated Sapphire in the market. Unheated Sapphires are rare and expensive, but available. Our sources of Natural, Unheated Sapphires are Madagascar, Australia, Sri Lanka and Thailand.
The Natural unheated Sapphires are also available in different colors like yellow, white, pink, violet and violet blue. We also deal in Blue Sapphires with large size, over 2 carats, from Madagascar and Australia. The Unheated Sapphire has natural inclusions like finger print inclusions, rutile needles that are fine, intact and intersecting at 60 degrees angle in the same plane or other fine needles at near right angles, intact two phase inclusions, unaltered mineral inclusions, clear or opaque color, color zoning and color banding, etc.
Photo Courtesy: GIA. These "intact" rutile needles clearly show how they are very sharp and this usually means that the Sapphire is unheated, untreated. When these same needles start to expand during heat treatment, the result is much thicker, broader and blur, or dotted looking needles.

Heated Sapphire
Heat-treatment is a common practice to improve the clarity and enhance the color of Sapphire. A Sapphire is "Cooked" in furnaces to temperature between 500 and 1800 degrees Celsius, which is near to the melting point of Sapphire. Some of the treated Sapphires, which are slightly heated, are not cheap. Good ones still cost upward at $ 3000 per carat.
The blue pool reflected light
Other Common Treatments in Sapphires
Some of the other treatments are as follows:
This treatment changes the color of the Sapphire permanently at the molecular level. This treatment is used to provide the colors which are not naturally available. You can see an example in the image below.
Surface Dyes:
This is a temporary treatment which can modify the color of the gem. When a seller wants to pass off an imposter gemstone as a Sapphire, he uses this treatment. Below is the image, which will clear most of the things.
Fracture Fills:
This treatment is used to mask the large and unattractive inclusions and cracks from the stone. This treatment temporarily increases the transparency and clarity. It can also change the color of the stone. Below is the image which will clear your doubts.
Beryllium treatment is used to change and enhance the color of Sapphire. It is devastating and expensive to expose this treatment in Sapphire. You can see an assortment of Sapphire heating with Beryllium. You can see that many of them change from yellow to orange and many remain blue.
Diffusion Treatment:
The most common treatment is the "Diffusion- treatment". This treatment is an artificial enhancement of color and may be impossible to detect without very sophisticated Lab procedures and instruments. To enhance the color of Sapphire, this heat treatment is provided in a reducing and oxidizing atmosphere. In the following image, phases of diffusion treatment are shown.
Below you can see the certificates of Natural Sapphire and Heat Treated Sapphire. You can see in the images that in one certificate it is mentioned that "No indication of Heating" in the Treatment Section and in the other certificate it is mentioned that "Indication of heating", which means that the Sapphire is Natural, but heat treated.
Here is the summary in a table form about the difference between Unheated and Heated sapphires.
|Unheated Sapphire
|Heated Sapphire
|At least 3 times more than Heated
|1/3 of Unheated
Rutile needles: "Intact" & sharp.
Inclusions: Many visible
Rutile needles: "Blurry" & thicker due to expansion
Inclusions: Only some, due to heat treatment
|Light – Medium shades
|Medium – Dark shades
|Usually Small
|Available in different sizes even larger sizes
|Cloudy with natural inclusions
|Almost transparent and without inclusions
|Low shape choices
|High variety of shapes available
The following video will help you to understand about Heated Sapphires.

Buy Loose London Blue Topaz Gemstones at wholesale prices from us
Blue color is all time favorite of many people in every nation. Blue Sapphire, Iolite and Tanzanite are blue colored stones but comes very expensive so it is not easy to afford by every person, on other end lapis lazuli, kynite, fluorite are lower ranged blue stones but these stones are not good for daily use and not elegant enough to carry on daily basis this is the reason why Blue Topaz is becoming so popular all around the world.
It is not doubtable a bit that blue topaz has become one of the top selling gemstone in the jewelry business, since blue topaz comes with good hardness, brilliance and color.
Blue Topaz gemstones come with three shades: London Blue Topaz, Swiss Blue Topaz and Sky Blue Topaz
In Blue Gems, more saturation of color tends to more value because of this reason london blue topaz comes more expensive than swiss and sky.
Properties of London Blue Topaz
Process of London Blue Topaz
Natural Topaz comes in white or brown color and when it heated and irradiated it turns into London Blue Topaz, this process takes years. In a nuclear reactor radiations are imposed on white topaz. Fast neutrons exposed on topaz changes color and later heating is used to lighten the ink color after all that cooling is used to stabilize the color. Whole process takes years and after that it comes in the market for selling.
NavneetGems.com is having our own treatment center for blue topaz

Buy and Source Natural Cambodian Blue Zircon gemstones from a wholesale supplier
Introduction of Blue Zircon gems -
Zircon which comes in many colors like yellow, orange, red, and blue. Blue color is more popular from all of zircon's colors. This stone is not very famous like Tanzanite, Tourmaline, Moonstone and others, some jewelers don't even know about this but others who know; know the real beauty of this stone. It is favorite stone of collectors and they love the blue hue of this stone and more than 80% zircons which have been sold, are blue and in rest 20% all other colors come. According to gemologist and big gemstones selling companies, this stone is going to be famous in upcoming years. . I am graduate gemologist and would like to share my thoughts over this stone, this stone is actually underestimated and not completely recognized in market but recently seeing the increasing demand graph shows that people are gradually knowing the beauty of this fascinating gemstone. In upcoming few years, this is going to be a new history in gemstone industry like Tanzanite.
In the middle ages, zircon was used for good sleep, prosperity and positivity. One who wants to know how the name was discovered so zircon word comes from 'zargun' (Persian word), which means 'gold-colored' but it comes in many colors.
Sometimes buyers take zircon and cubic zirconia same because of almost same names and fact is that cubic zirconia is lab-grown imitation of different stones.
Buy and source Natural Cambodian Blue Zircon gemstones from a wholesale supplier - We have been selling Blue Zircon Gemstones at wholesale prices. Generally it is not easy to source Blue Zircon Gems but in our case it is not like this. We have been manufacturing this in our own factory.
Properties, quality and color of blue zircon gemstones -There are relatively few natural gemstones which come in blue color with good hardness and blue color brilliance. Sapphire, Tanzanite (Violet Blue), Aquamarine (Light Blue), Blue Tourmaline are some stones which come in blue color shade. In irradiated blue gemstones, Blue Topaz (Swiss and London) is also famous for its blue color, BUT without any doubt the most brilliant blue gemstone is Natural Blue Zircon. This stone comes with more refractive index than sapphire, tanzanite and other blue stones. It is found in a big range of colors, including rose, white, orange, blue etc.
Most of the Blue zircons are heat treated and clear with no inclusions but few hundred percent nature zircons come with smoky and cloudy appearance. Who knows the trend, this smokiness made this stone famous in times of Victorians. Blue zircon is heated and that is acceptable in market and no need of any disclosure because everyone know it. Hardness of this stone is 7-7.5 on Mohs scale which attracts jewelers to make rings, pendants and bracelets using this stone. It can split white light into spectral (rainbow) colors and that unique property makes this stone more interesting.
Basically it is produced by heat treatment of Natural brown zircon but all brown zircon stones which are heated do not turn into Blue, only those which are having congenial physical structure change into blue, this is the reason this stone is rare. We have been running our own heat treatment center Thailand to produce this stone.
Only good companies, who have experienced gemstones cutters, are manufacturing this stone because cutters can increases or decrease the market value of this stone. Mostly brilliant cut is famous to bring out the luster and firing, even though they modify brilliant cut in order to make the appearance more better and that modified cut is called 'zircon cut' but it labor cost of this cutting is high.
Why our selling prices are competitive and wholesale for Blue Zircon?
In gemstones business main thing is sourcing and contacts. Cambodia is big source of raw material of this stone and that is near to our country where we have our factory (Thailand) so it becomes very easy for us to source raw material and this way we reduce our manufacturing costing and ultimately our buyers take the advantage of this. Our buying is huge, we buy raw material in big volumes and this makes our buying prices low and it's a simple math if raw material and production costing is low for us then we will sell at very low prices to our customers.
Availability of Natural Blue Zircon at Navneet Gems –
We have all small to big sizes in stock which start from 1 carat and goes up to 10-12 carats per piece. Normally our starting prices for good quality is 50$/carat and goes high according to size, quality and color. Color of every piece is magnificent and drives to top gem quality. We just take few hours to ship you a piece because we have many pieces in stock however we make in order too if need any special design, cut or cutting.
Zircon is heavier than other semi precious stones and that's the reason it looks smaller in size when we compare the weight with other stones. Blue zircon comes has good hardness however it should be kept with care. Most of the dealers keep this stone in soft paper (In India) and gemstone box in other countries.

This article here today will explain the reader if they are lookin how and where to buy Sapphire beads at wholesale prices on the internet with so much complications about the quality, price etc today.
It can be a challenging thing to buy Sapphire Beads online from a wholeseller. It may be difficult because of the following reasons:
The best ways to find an online Sapphire beads seller is to see the credibility of their website, their social networks to understand how people are interacting with them and how they are responding back. The credibility can be checked by seeing what organizations they are affiliated with and to check those websites with the name of the Gemstone company that you have found on the internet. For example: our company's names and websites are located in HKTDC's website under the Alphabetical order of "N" for Navneet Gems and Minerals. Another way to find out is whether their website is looking good or not, well designed means they have spent time and money on it - which is likely to prove they arent a spam. Have a look below at a website that sells Sapphire Beads wholesale, but would you find enough time spent on the design of their upper half of the first page? Guess not.
So these are the factors and ways to decide in choosing your supplier of Blue Sapphire, Pink Sapphire, Multi Sapphire and other colors of Sapphire Beads. Here is some basic information about Sapphire Beads:
Sizes: Sapphire beads wholesale are available in almost all sizes, but mostly the smaller ones. The bigger sized beads are usually lower quality as its more desirable for the manufacturer like us to make those bigger pieces in cut stones or cabochons in order to really get a higher price per carat for it.
Rondell Bead Shape in Blue Sapphire - these are one of the most common shapes to avoid weight loss and make them look like "tyres" which are another name for these beads
Another common shape in Sapphire beads are: Plain beads which are also called as "Cabochon" Beads. These are also very common on Blue, Pink and Multi sapphires as they are all polished well just not facetted.
Prices of Sapphire Beads start as low as 10$ per string (for the lowest quality) and as high as 1,000$ per string, depending on color and quality of the beads and ofcourse Cabochons are less expensive than the Facetted Rondells.
Lengths: Many different lengths of Sapphire beads are available. Some of them are 9", 13" 15" 18" 21", these are all in inches and some companies like us can customize the size of beads to suit the individual customer as we understand each Sapphire beads wearer would require a different length upon their requirements.
Quality: So many different qualities are available in Sapphire beads that its difficult to answer this. But low, medium and high are the three most common qualities available. A, AA and AAA is also sometimes a measure of quality. A beads are usually with inclusions and the color is light, the AA quality of Sapphire beads are darker but still in the medium range and with some or almost no visible inclusions, lastly thet most expensive ones are with no inclusions and are "Dark" or more colored Sapphire beads wholesale. I mean Blue becomes more Blue-er, Pink becomes more "Pink-er" and so on.
If you do trust our website, our content, our words and if you are willing to select us your supplier Sapphire beads wholesale then please get in touch with us and email us at firstname.lastname@example.com on Monday, October 28, 2013 - 11:41
When I started supplying Gemstone Pyramids at wholesale prices around last year, I started to understand the energy in that these Gemstone Pyramids had and what these Crystals, whether it be Massage wands, Magic Wands, Crystal Balls or Double terminated Crystals, all these had. In this page I would like to show you how believing in something like this may change our lives.
Today is October 2013, where this world is turning so fast, faster than ever. People (not us) dont have time for small things and are looking to capture the bigger things in life. In such times, there are lots of negative energies around you which werent there in the early 21st century. Technology has made people into a "techno saviac", I dont know how else to put those that are trapped. We love our phones, we love our lives, we love our money, but we dislike others phones, we dislikes their money. Almost everyone has turned themselves into this, but some self-recoginzable human beings who arent caught in this trap, perhaps you or me who have the time to read these articles of mine. In such a world, its important to be happy, important to have time for small things, important to clear away all those negative energies that we get, either from others or self created.
Such energy sometimes cannot come from within, we need objects to move us. We need cars to make us travel, we need the phone to help us love, we need portable food to make us save time. We need a push, and here is a push for all those people who are either looking a wholesale supplier of Gemstone Pyramids and other related items or who are looking to clear this negative energy by the use of these Magical gemstones, created by nature, and manufactured by human.
How to believe in these Gemstone Pyramids?
Its simple, tell yourself they will change your life. (They may not instantly maybe because of too high a negative energy around you, but eventually will). Tell yourself that these natural gemstones will give you a push towards a new world, a world that doesnt have "any" negative energy at all, may seem hard to believe, but its what you believe happens. This is how you probably are towards say a Rose quartz gemstone Pyramids, this may be your vision, right? (have a look at the below picture of Rose quartz gemstone pyramid)
Most people are only focused on their own lives, not on these small things like Gemstone Pyramids that can change life. But now see my (and perhaps your) vision:
The above image (Photographed by me) was taken when my mind, my heart and my soul were fully engaged into creating this energy which was again "pushed" by these Gemstone Pyramids. These quartz gemstone pyramids come in many types, sizes and shapes.
Different colors of Pyramids and their importance
The reader may wonder why we need so many different types of gemstones. We need them no, but they exist and each gemstone has different powers. If you are reading this, you would be knowing that every substance has energy and everyone transmitts energy, this is the rule of science. Science tells us that energy cannot be created, not destroyed but transmitted - heard of this yeah? Why do you feel energetic when you are getting married? Why do you have tons of energy inside you after getting your first pay check. Its all emotions that create these energy, and emotions come from within, the cells in our body get charged up because of this "transmission" of energy. Sometimes when the energy within isnt as high as we expect it to be, we use these Gemstone Pyramids and the different types of Crystals to provide the balance of emotions right, create positive energy by transmission, bring us good luck and other related things that most Asians (Chinese, Indian, Thai's) and also Americans and Europeans believe in.
Gemstone Pyramids are available in our stores (And generally) in these colors:
The importance of these gemstones vary. First you need to understand the Seven chakras:
This diagram created by our company (I stole it from our IT department), illustrates the different chakras and their meanings. We also have attached a picture of the different parts of the bodies that are related to each chakra, this gives a clear understanding of each part and their relation. You may take time to read this and understand the meaning and importance of it, just dont stop and facebook or tweet, instead share this post and let your friends and others know what you are reading and the importance of the Energy and gemstone related chakras. Spread the word.
These clearly explain that each different body part has a different relation to the chakras. Now this is what I mean, you must be curious why we need different gemstones. This is why. One medicine cannot cure all deseases, same way different gemstones may cure different chakras and energize them in different ways.
To exactly see how to use a "Gemstone Wand" you may check this website: http://crystal-cure.com/article-wands-healing.html, it tells you how to recharge your wands, how to use it, where to use it and some other useful information.
Crystals Crystals Crystals..
The reason why Crystals have always been the most powerful tool to cure someone, something, somewhere. This is the reason why many fans gift these Magical wands to other friends or colleagues or family so they can pass on this positive "white" crystal energy and transmit them on to their friends.
Here are one of the best clicks I have dont of Crystal Massage wands. Oh well, the next time you are massasing your friend, girlfriend, mother buy a Crystal Gemstone wand first and try to use it and ask the user how he or she felt after the massage (but make sure you read about how to massage, there is a great youtube video here of how to massage using these gemstone massage wands, but please dont be as harsh as the person in the video, you can be softer please):
Contact us & Share this post if you liked it
If you are looking to buy, source these Gemstone Pyramids, Gemstone Wands, Tumble Stones, Gemstone Spheres at wholesale or even if you are looking to buy some for your own house or for your own use, you may contact a wholeseller like us and get great prices and savings.
For those who loved reading this post about Gemstones crystals, then please share this post on Social networks, or post a link of this on your blog etc. Thanks.Posted on Sunday, October 27, 2013 - 22:35
Garnet is the most biggest category that exist in the Semi precious category. The different types of garnet gemstones available in todays market vary the most today, October 2013. This page will tell you:
About us
We are Navneet Gems and Minerals, a Thai-Indian company with our headquarters in Thailand which is the biggest hub of quality Gemstones from Asia. Our company is a specialist in providing Garnet gemstones to wholesale customers, Local Jewellers, and retailers in their own countries. Our factories in India produce the lower ranged Garnet, where as expensive like the Tsavorites are produced in our Thailand factory located in the hub of precious gems, Chantaburi.
Understanding the different types of wholesale Garnet loose gemstones in the market today
No one is always getting this right. There always is some confusion and this confusion will persist. That is because there are really way too many names of the different types of garnets available. Thats exactly when we as a wholesale supplier of Garnet come into play to solve some of these confusions.
1) The first type of Garnet and the most common one in terms of scale of production and quantity is Indian Orrisa Garnet.
As the name suggests, it is originated from India (Orissa is the state), and thats where all this Red Indian garnet comes from. This is the reason we produce all our Orrisa garnet from India due to location. The color of the Indian Garnet is rather like red wine, however there are many variations in this Indian garnet itself. In this come the ver dark (almost black) colored Indian garnet which obviously is very less expensive. Here is a picture below of the most common colored Indian garnet, which is like wine. Then there is also a more open color Indian orissa garnet which resembles Mozambique but is usually only available in smaller sizes and sold at the same prices of Mozambique. The prices of Indian Orissa garnet for example for 6x4 Ovals would be 0.30$-0.40$ per carat for a wholesale quantity. (You can compare these prices with other origins of Red garnet). Below is a picture on the left hand side of the "Dark Indian Red Garnet", as it has darker shades of red and some black at the outskirts of the stone. On the right hand side it is the more open color of Red Garnet, which is usually refered as "Indian Red Garnet"
2) The second type of Garnet in the market most commonly available in terms of availabiltiy and price is: Hyderabadi Indian garnet.
These hyderabadi Indian garnet are mostly available in the form of Cabochons as the cut is not highly valued becasue of its orangy color. Ofcourse orange sells less for the Red, right? Common sense that is for us all. Now, if you compare the price of a 6x4 Oval in Mozambique you may get it as low as 0.10$ per carat with minimum inclusions. Thats the different type of price this category of Garnet has to offer. Just a slight change in color and origin gives it a completely different price and look. Indian Hyderabadi garnet are available in both with Inclusions and without inclusions. Here is a picture of how the Indian Hyderabadi Garnet cabochons look like. They are red, but more open orangeish red which give them a lower price tag on these beautiful garnet cabochons.
3) The third most common Garnet is Mozambique Garnet semi precious gemstones.
The best of the best you can say, in terms of its price and its terms of its color. Resembling ruby, Mozamique garnet has almost quadrippled in prices over the past few years and thats a phenomical growth for any gemstone to be having. Wholesale Mozambique garnet is something we used to sell alot past few years but since things have changed and the supply has reduced. Some of the Mozambique garnet sold on the market is actally just good colors of other shades such as the Indian orissa or the Reddish Hyderabadi. An Oval 6x4 in Mozambique garnet at a wholesale price would be 0.50$ for good top shade. Almost double that of other gemstones.
4) The type of Garnet that comes in the last few most common ones are: Hessonite Garnet.
Hessonite garnet cabochons are the most famous for its Orange color, but infact because of that it doesnt enjoy the liberty to high prices. Too much availabilty of Wholesale Loose Hessonite Garnet gemstones, and orange/yellow color making them valued much lower than they should. The pictures below show the beautiful Hessonite garnet in Custones which are more rare, but available with Navneet Gems and Minerals as we and our customer understand the beauty of these gemstones.
About the different shades and qualities of Garnet gems in the gemstone indutry.
The different shades of Red garnet available are outlined in short below:
The importance of Garnet in the Gems and Jewellery industry.
There is barely any gemstone that comes in the between Garnet's ways, it is a gemstone they say that has no competiton. At that price range, at that price, what can you get that gives out the best color in todays market which is red, undoubetdly because of it being the "color of our heart". Ruby, forget it. Todays Red and Pink tourmaline prices forget it. What do you not forget is garnet then, the variety of garnets makes this the most important color and stone in todays market, it was never this important but since people started falling in love again since the late 20th century, this colors importance increased to a point where they couldnt resist wearing jewellery that was red. No matter what happens, red will never go away. Red is the color ladies love to wear, and the men love to gift to the lady of their dreams. In conclusion Garnet will never leave this industry unless one unfortunate day it completely runs out.
The supply and demands (Economics) behind Garnet.
The economics behind every gemstone is different. The Tanzanites we know are ONLY based on the American market dominantly, if the Americans get bored of this stone the demand goes down, the prices struggle and the demand struggles to pick up at all. But Garnet is a completely a different stone. What makes a country like a gemstone? Its color, its shade, its price, its astrological importance and its quality.
Garnet is a gemstone that is used all over the world. The Americans love all stypes of garnets, the expensive Demontoids and the cheaper Hyderabadi Garnets. The dark tone on this gemstone makes it attractive for all white skins and it enhances the look of their faces. Have a look at Miley cyrus wearing Garnet jewellery, doesnt it enhance her look? It jus suits the face so much.
Because of Garnets usage being so global, the elasticities of demand are low, as there are no real substitutes, so what will people use if not this red stone at the price range of 1$ a carat? 2$ a carat? In todays gemstone business, there are only a few really powerful markets that can move a particular gemstone or a particular market etc, these are: The United states of America, China, Russia and Japan. There is no 5th country that is strong enough in terms of gemstone consumption. The Americans love garnet, the Chinese and the Japanese are rather neutral and the Russians are the biggest fan of "Pyrope" Garnet is what they call them, and that is one reason for the demand of Garnets being increased to heights in todays market. If any of these countries increases their consumption, the Garnet gemstone business can be effected in days. Thats the economics behind this.
We have reached many conclusions in this article about Garnet. Firstly, if you are looking to source Garnet then we can be the right supplier, atleast you may give us a try. Secondly, there are lots of things to learn about this Gemstone which is very broad in terms of qualities, price, colors, shades, origins of the different Garnets available in todays market. Lastly, garnet is a gemstone that is consumed almost in all the major countries and thus moving the demand to a different scale or playing around with the economies behind it isnt that easy but countries like USA and Russia have showed their power.
Any questions and querries you may email us at email@example.com on Sunday, October 27, 2013 - 01:08

Response to antiretroviral therapy (ART): comparing women with previous use of zidovudine monotherapy (ZDVm) in pregnancy with ART naïve women

Short-term zidovudine monotherapy (ZDVm) remains an option for some pregnant HIV-positive women not requiring treatment for their own health but may affect treatment responses once antiretroviral therapy (ART) is subsequently started.
Data were obtained by linking two UK studies: the UK Collaborative HIV Cohort (UK CHIC) study and the National Study of HIV in Pregnancy and Childhood (NSHPC). Treatment responses were assessed for 2028 women initiating ART at least one year after HIV-diagnosis. Outcomes were compared using logistic regression, proportional hazards regression or linear regression.
In adjusted analyses, ART-naïve (n = 1937) and ZDVm-experienced (n = 91) women had similar increases in CD4 count and a similar proportion achieving virological suppression; both groups had a low risk of AIDS.
In this setting, antenatal ZDVm exposure did not adversely impact on outcomes once ART was initiated for the woman's health.

You don't need a car with this unit you can walk to everything that Jaco has to offer.
I also have a private driver for transportation to and from the airport as well as adventure activities. I have special discounted prices arrange for my guests for any travel or adventure tours.
My name is Dr. Ken Sorrick and I am a retired school superintendent form Illinois. I was honored in 2011 when the district I worked for named a school after me (Dr. Kenneth Sorrick, Elementary School). As a school superintendent I had the reputation of maintaining high quality and high customer satisfaction. I now strive to maintain that same high quality in all my rental properties. About ten years ago I visited Jaco for the first time and I fell in love with the Country, location of Jaco and its people. I now have many friends in Jaco and I have a personal friend who manages my property when I am in the United States.
Ken Sorrick purchased this condo in 2013
My first visit to Jaco was to a brand new Vista Mar Condo. Since then I have been to Jaco many times and have stayed at every luxury ocean front condo in the Jaco area. The location at Vista Mar is truly the best in all of Jaco.
I also have three other properties all located in the same Vista Mar complex allowing me to service families or a group of friends. I can accommodate a single person or couple wanting the highest luxury condo unit in Jaco or up to 18 people in three units.
I visit Jaco many times a year and I have never been in a better condo than this. The owner made us feel welcome from the start and was super helpful and had only the best amenities in his condo. Great bedding, wifi, kitchen, bathrooms, views, I could go on and on. Walk to everything in town, can't get a better location. This condo is 1st class all the way, as well as the owner himself. I will never stay in another place in Jaco. I highly recommend this condo above all the rest. If you want the best place in Jaco for a great vacation look no further you have found your place.
Does not get any better than this. Everything about this vacation was perfect. The setting and every little detail in the condo was thought of by the owner and put together with perfection. Great to have the ocean and three of your own heated pools to choose from. My wife my son and my nephew we all had the time of our lives. The owner took care of every need from transportation to discounts on Spa treatments. When our day was over you came home to this fabulous condo that had this amazing shower that over looks the ocean. The balcony was spectacular with ocean sunrises and sunsets that are out of this world.
Never in our lives have we ever experience such a beautiful place at such a reasonable and low price. Once we arrived at the condo it was like a dream come true. It is immaculate, with the softest linens that we have ever slept on, professionally decorated with the ocean theme carried throughout the house. The beautiful hand painted mural to the sculpture artwork makes you feel so good when you walk into the condo. The condo has crystal clear sliding glass doors that lead to the largest and most magnificent balconies we have ever seen. We use to go to Key West for sunsets now we are spoiled by the most beautiful sunsets we have ever seen right from the private balcony.
The location is perfect. My husband and two sons would walk out of the condo right to the beach to go surfing and I would head to the quaint downtown area that has shops and restaurants. The pool was great. I spent my time in the private pool while my two boys went to the other pools to meet new friends. There is so much to do and the owner has organized everything so when you walk in you can plan your vacation. He set up our transportation and saved us a lot of money on restaurants and spa treatments. Yes we are coming back but this time for two weeks instead of a week. It is like living a dream that you think only the rich and famous can experience. Lastly you don't need a car.
Vacationing at this condo went far beyond our expectations. The photos and description found on the website, although beautiful, did not do justice to this condo. We were incredibly pleased and surprised by all of the amenities and designer touches. We did not want for anything!
We were very busy during our week's stay. We enjoyed hiking in the mountains, exploring waterfalls and ATV, fishing, gambling and zip-lining. We also spent a lot of time at the beach and pool, of course! We loved coming back to this luxury condo after each of our excursions. To see the ocean, surfers, and the most beautiful sunsets we ever experience from the comfort of our private balcony was like a dream come true.
The owner arranged for transportation to and from the airport and set up all of our excursions at a discount price. He has connections with all the local vendors and the savings almost pays for the lodging. To be in a Foreign country and not have to worry about a thing made this the best vacation our family has ever taken. Highly recommended!
This was the perfect condo for our best vacation ever. We came as three couples and each couple had its own private room, bathroom and balcony. The design of the condo allows for a huge great room were we all gathered to discuss our daily events. The owner arranged to have his own private limo/guide pick us up from the airport.
When we arrived at the condo we were in awe of the beautiful condo and the breath taking views of the pacific ocean. The condo has an 20 foot mural of the ocean that you see when you first enter the unit. Your eyes then go from the mural to the most beautiful ocean view that my husband and I have ever seen. This unit was immaculately clean and decorated with luxury sculptures. The mattresses and linens were best we have ever slept on in all of our years of travel.
During the mornings we would walk the beach, then each afternoon we did a local trip of either Zip-Linning, Fishing, ATV, or hiking. Then in the late afternoon the ladies went to the private pool as the men worked out in the private work out room. At night we went to some fabulous restaurants that the owner recommended and got a discount for us. Two nights we went out dancing to early in the morning.
One thing we never missed was the sunsets from the balcony. The view from his balcony was spectacular. I would highly recommend you staying at this condo. We are coming back next year and this is the only place we will stay.
Outstanding location with a beautiful view of the ocean. It is spacious and exceeded my wildest expectations!!
You can do almost anything in Jaco or just enjoy the beauty of the rainforest and the ocean, or relax by one of three private pools. A must is Zip lining, crocodile river tour, rain forest tram, ATV in the rainforest, volcano visit, and Jaco is known as one of the great surfing locations in the world. Along with this specific rental comes 10% discounts on all adventure tours and spa treatments. This Vista Mar unit is on the ocean front in the heart of Jaco. You can walk to everything including the many five star and native restaurants.

Since he was a little boy, former Starkville Academy player Hunter Bolin has dreamed of playing on a bigger stage.
Recently, Bolin made that dream a reality when he joined on to play for the Mississippi College Choctaws.
"It has been an unreal experience," Bolin said. "Ever since I was young, this was my dream. Now I'm lucky enough to play college baseball. It is just a real blessing. I'm living in the moment and enjoying every minute."
One moment in particular sticks out for Bolin. On Feb. 18, Bolin stepped into the batter's box for the first time as a Choctaw and despite it seeming "surreal," the freshman will never forget how he felt.

Toast Your Nuts in the Microwave
I love toasted nuts. My favorite way to eat them is probably tossed with some brown sugar, salt, and rosemary, but I'm not too picky. I'll happily eat them plain. The problem I have is that it about half the time I try to toast nuts, I burn them.
No longer will I have this problem, for I have discovered the power of the microwave.
I rarely use the microwave for anything other than defrosting or reheating, but every once in a while I run into something that it does remarkably well. One of those things, surprisingly, is toasting nuts (and seeds).
You'll need a small amount of fat for this method. Oil or butter will do. Just thinly coat the nuts with the fat and lay them in a single layer on a microwave-safe plate. A ceramic plate is fine.
Microwave the nuts on high in one minute (or less) increments, stirring in-between. The total cooking time should be between 2 and 4 minutes. Sesame seeds will be done more quickly than whole walnuts. This shouldn't be a surprise.
By the way, I know that you've been snickering, "Heh... He said toasted nuts," the entire time you've been reading this.

text: Japanese GP: Vettel doesn't go bananas but still leads Red Bull rampage at Suzuka 13 October, 2013 Start of the 2013 Japanese Grand Prix at Suzuka Sebastian Vettel took a step closer to his fourth Formula 1 World Championship with a well judged drive to win the Japanese Grand Prix, after out witting teammate Mark Webber and Romain Grosjean, who had set the early pace at Suzuka. After qualifying it was clear that the Red Bull duo would be hard to beat, as they annexed the front row, with Webber on pole for the first time this season and Vettel beside him on the grid. When the red lights went out, however it was Grosjean who made a tremendous start, and scampered into an early lead with Webber recovering and tucking in to second with Vettel in third. It was bad luck for Lewis Hamilton, who started from fourth, and worked his way into second heading into Turn 1. But that was that, as, in getting by Vettel, his rear tyre clipped the Red Bull's front wing and by the time he was in Turn 1 his race was all but over – a puncture putting paid to his afternoon. He recovered to the pits but not long after the damage to the car (caused by the flaying rubber) forced the team to retire the Mercedes. Race winner Sebastian Vettel celebrates win number nine of the season Early on Grosjean appeared to have the pace to keep Webber at bay, helped by a the prohibition on overtaking in place, as marshals retrieved the cars of Jules Bianchi (Marussia) and Giedo van der Garde (Caterham) who crashed in Turn 1. The Lotus driver is growing in stature with every race and provedto be a the thorn in Red Bull's side in a race they were expected to dominate. In the end they got their 1-2 but the Frenchman made them work hard for the prize. Vettel turned a mediocre start in to victory with well judged laps when it mattered, including adhering to a 'do not go bananas' order from his pit wall. He stuck to a patient game plan, going longer than most with his second set of tyres, which enabled him to attack Grosjean effectively and decisively to claim his 35th F1 career victory, his ninth triumph of the season and his fourth win in five years at Suzuka. For a change fans cheered the World Champion, which he acknowledged afterwards on the podium, "First of all I would like to say thanks to all the fans the support we get and the respect is phenomenal. I had a very poor start – I clipped the front wing but after that we were patient and I managed to get past Romain and beat Mark on the tyre strategy. The decision [on the tyres] was made on the first stint because we stayed out longer on the first tyres. It was not easy to make the two-stop work especially in the middle sector but it worked in the end." Suzuka podium: (L to R): Remi Taffin (head of Renault Sport F1 Track Operations), Mark Webber (second), race winner Sebastian Vettel and Romain Grosjean (third) The title is still not his mathematically, but we all know that Vettel is the 2013 F1 World Champion elect, with a landslide victory merely a formality and the Suzuka victory a testament to one of the most impressive campaigns in the history of the sport. Webber also managed his tyres well and in the last stint was able to bolt on the softer (white stripe) Pirelli which gave him the edge as he stalked Grosjean for second place. Credit goes to the Lotus driver who made life difficult for the Australian, but had to succumb eventually during a thrilling period with several cars – a lap down on the leaders – thrown in the mix to spice things up. When the dust settled, it was Webber in second with Grosjean third and for us at Grand Prix247 the 'man of the match' for his sheer tenacity in the face of a brutal Red Bull attack. Webber summed up his afternoon, "It's an amazing circuit. The race today was pretty good, but I'd have liked one more step on the podium but there were different strategies going on. I'm pretty happy with second but you always want a bit more. I got the best from what I could today. In the end we went to a three-stop but we we got back to where we were." Early shower for Jules Bianchi Grosjean reflected, "What a start. Today was a very good race but the the Red Bull caught us but we were the only ones who were able to challenge them. It is always good to come here, the fans are great and it was a great race." Fernando Alonso turned eighth on the grid into fourth place and with it keeping the title fight teetering to the next round. The Ferrari driver said afterwards, "There were some strong people in front of us and the threat from behind with Kimi [Raikkonen], but the race went [well]. Fourth is a good result but we were lucky with Mercedes' problems. It was a good race in terms of points for the Constructors' [title], but we didn't have the pace for podium." "Even if Vettel doesn't finish all of the races I need to win nearly all [of the remaining races], so it's a matter of time [before Vettel will be Champion]. We have different goals now, and today they told me I have the record for the most amount of points in F1 history, so it's a happy day – the leading points scorer in F1 is something great. I know the points system changed, but when someone overtakes me in the points no one will remember the points system change," mused Alonso. Lewis Hamilton suffered a puncture on lap 1 Alonso's 2014 teammate, Kimi Raikkonen was comprehensively outshone by his current Lotus teammate throughout the weekend in Japan. nevertheless the Finn recovered from ninth on the grid to take fifth place. Next up were the Sauber pair of Nico Hulkenberg and Esteban Gutierrez in sixth and seventh respectively, Hulkenberg again mixing it with the top guns and at one stage looking strong for fourth place, slugging it out with Alonso and Raikkonen before his tyres gave up. Gutierrez scored his first Formula 1 World Championship points, and also became the first rookie of 2013 to score points this season in what was an impressive afternoon for Sauber. Nico Rosberg was on the back-foot all afternoon as he was released dangerously into the path of Sergio Perez's McLaren during a pitstop which resulted in a drive through for the Mercedes driver. He worked hard to finish eighth. A final corner altercation (including WWE style contact) between Felipe Massa and Jenson Button decided the final two placings, the pair finishing ninth and tenth respectively – but only just. Fourth world title beckons for Sebastian Vettel Final word to Vettel, surely the soon to be crowned 2013 World Champion, "I would like to enjoy today, I think it was a fantastic race. I love this race, the people are great and make it a special race. It doesn't hurt when you win for the Championship. I've won four times here now, I'm already looking forward to next year. Regarding the Championship, we have good gap but we keep pushing. It looks very good at the stage but it's not over until it's over." (GP247) Subbed by AJN.
