Sterling silver, also called fine silver, is a beautifully lustrous cool-toned precious metal favored in fine jewelry among other products. The most reflective of all metals (excluding mercury), sterling silver looks stunning by itself and brings out the best hues in an array of colorful gemstones.
Sterling silver can be polished to a higher sheen than platinum. In fact, Ag, the chemical symbol for silver, comes from a word that means "white and shining." The surface of silver can boast that shiny, polished appearance, or can be brushed, satin, matte, sandblasted, antiqued or oxidized (chemically blackened).
In order to be called sterling silver, a metal must be made up of a minimum of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% alloy (meaning other metals), including but not limited to copper and nickel. The alloy is added to pure silver to make the metal more durable, tougher and harder. Sterling silver is designated a fineness of "925." Pieces with sterling silver may be marked "sterling."
Finishes on Sterling Silver Finishing, or plating, is a common treatment with sterling silver. Popular types of plating are rhodium plating, gold plating and anti-tarnish plating. Plating is used to extend the life and sheen of the jewelry. After sizing or buffing a piece of jewelry with a machine, it must be re-plated to restore the finish.
Caring for Sterling Silver Sterling silver becomes tarnished as the result of a natural chemical process that occurs when sterling silver is exposed to chemicals in the air, rubber, wool and latex. Humidity also plays a role in accelerating tarnishing. It's easy to keep your sterling silver sparkling, though, by taking a few steps to prevent tarnish and other wear and tear.
With its uniquely mystical appearance, quartz was the "rock crystal" used in ancient times to make crystal balls. It was believed to attract energy and is still considered to be spiritual today. The gemstone was once believed to be a compact form of ice. In fact, the Greeks originally named quartz "krystallos," meaning ice, but this terminology soon applied to any type of crystal.
Often identified by its six-sided prism shape, quartz is the most common mineral on Earth, found in nearly every environment throughout the globe. With a ranking of 7.0 on the Mohs Scale, it is a component of almost every rock type and occurs in virtually every color imaginable. Quartz has a great amount varieties that are well-known by other names, including amethyst, citrine, ametrine, rock crystal, agate, druzy, chalcedony, tigers eye and many more. There are also several varieties that hold the name "quartz," including rose quartz, smokey quartz and rutilated quartz.
The pale pink color of quartz is known as rose quartz, the traditional gift for couples celebrating their 2nd anniversary. It is a delicate powder pink color that ranges from transparent to translucent. Transparent rose quartz is quite rare and is usually so pale that it does not show much color, except in large sizes. The translucent quality of rose quartz is much more common and is used for jewelry and carvings.
Rose quartz is probably one of the most prized stones for its mystical properties. Known as the "Heart Stone," it is believed to have incredible powers to balance emotions and open the heart. Folklore says rose quartz can comfort brokenhearted people, bringing healing and clarity to the heart and allowing the wearer to learn to trust again. The stone is also said to foster happiness and the joy of life by bringing about contentment in love and filling one with optimism, tenderness and gentleness.
In addition to helping with romantic love, rose quartz is believed to enhance all other forms of love as well, including self-love, platonic and maternal. Its loving, nurturing energy is said to take away fears, resentment and anger and replace them with feelings of higher self-esteem and confidence. This soothing stone is also thought to balance emotions and heal emotional wounds. It is said to be especially powerful in times of stress or loss, bringing peace and calm to the wearer.
Ranging in color from nearly black to smoky brown, smoky quartz is transparent and owes its warm earthen hue to exposure to natural radioactivity. Care must be taken since its rich color will fade in the sun. Spelled either "smoky" or "smokey," this variety of quartz is often incorrectly called "smoky topaz."
Smoky quartz is believed to help dissolve negative energy, release stress and relieve depression. It is said to be a mild sedative with a relaxing effect that calms, soothes and restores balance and harmony. Folklore says the gem can embrace dark areas with light and love and therefore clear and cleanse the body both physically and emotionally. Smoky quartz is thought to be a warm, friendly and down-to-earth gem.
Rutilated quartz is a type of transparent rock crystal that contains long, fine needles of rutile crystals (titanium dioxide). These highly valued inclusions form a landscape of shining gold needles in an array of patterns that is breathtakingly beautiful. These golden inclusions are also known as Venus hair, Cupid's darts and fleches d'amour ("arrows of love"). There is a less well-known variety called tourmalinated quartz that, instead of golden rutile, forms black or dark green tourmaline crystals.
Although rutilated quartz is usually cut as a cabochon, it can be a difficult stone to attain a smooth surface without pits. This is because rutile ranks a 6.0 on the Mohs Scale, while quartz ranks 7.0. The difference in hardness between the two materials, and because of the way rutile forms inside, causes problems when cutting. Each final cut piece is unique, with no two being exactly alike. Modern folklore says rutilated quartz brings forth each person's strengths, originality and ability to relate to others.

WACH FOX News Center covers stories around the Midlands and across the state 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
COLUMBIA (WACH, AP) -- It is an appearance seven months in the making, but the day has finally arrived. The latest addition to Riverbanks Zoo's koala exhibit is leaving its mothers pouch and saying hello, and you could have the opportunity to name it.
According to the zoo the baby koala was born last October to parents Jimmie and Lottie. After playing peek-a-boo for a few weeks the joey is venturing out but will remain very close with mom for several more months.
"Koala joeys start out about the size of a jelly bean and will on average spend six to seven months nursing and developing in their mother's pouch before they are ready to begin exploring the outside world – typically one limb at a time or by poking their head out on occasion," said John Davis, curator of mammals at Riverbanks Zoo and Garden.
In the videos above Tyler Ryan got a sneak peek at the koala joey during Good Day Columbia's Wild Wednesday last month.
This birth marks the fourth offspring for Jimmie and the sixth for Lottie. Jimmie came to Riverbanks from the Los Angeles Zoo in 2008. Lottie came to Riverbanks from Australia in 2003.
The joey is still nameless because guests attending the Zoo's annual fundraiser will have an opportunity to bid on naming the koala joey as part of a silent auction during the event on Friday, September 28. Additional details will be available at www.riverbanks.org.

December 8, 2013
WASHINGTON (AP) - While the "fiscal cliff" dominates political conversation in Washington, some Republicans and business groups see signs of a "regulatory cliff" that they say could be just as damaging to the economy.
In recent weeks, the administration has proposed rules to deal with runoff from logging roads, require data recorders in cars and trucks and implement the new health care law.
The rules had been sidetracked during the presidential campaign as the White House sought to quiet Republican charges that President Barack Obama was an overzealous regulator who is killing U.S. jobs.
Oklahoma Republican Sen. James Inhofe says Obama has spent the past year "punting" on a slew of regulations that will be unleashed in a second term.
Environmental groups say fears of a second-term regulatory deluge are overstated.

Today: "Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle." which I believe is a variation of "Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle." by Plato
The time has come to end my journaling here, for I wish to write about health and fitness related subject matter, and non-anonymously. However, I truly enjoy reading the recovery blogs and will continue to do so, I'll be around.
This has been a good year in many ways, and many challenges have been provided to keep things interesting. I still struggle with some hip and back issues, but have a pain management plan that includes core work (much!), yoga, prolotherapy, platelet rich plasma treatments; but while continuing to work out. I've chosen to live life doing the things I love, although on a reduced scale (no marathons). I am off the prescription pain meds, and still able to stay active.
Gosh, it has been such a treat to blog and meet and learn from other recovery folks during the last three plus years. I'm connected to many with email, phone numbers, and Facebook. Each year we even have a Fantasy Football league, where I usually do pretty well for not actually watching any football games.
While my journals here will end, I am still on a recovery journey. I think the early years of sobriety provide the greatest challenges and opportunities for change, with a tapering as the years go by. This seems to be my experience, sort of a steep learning curve that continues to go up, but at a slower pace. Regardless, much work remains.
And I am not sure if it is my age, or the tragic news of childhood friends passing during the past year, but I seem to be more and more focused on my own mortality lately. There is a quote that I remember from the 'old party days', and here I offer a variation:
"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body...but rather to skid in sideways, running or walking shoes in one hand - yoga mat in the other, body and mind thoroughly challenged, but totally taken care of... screaming WOO~HOO - What a Ride!"

Though this rug is a little more expensive than what you may find in some stores - I believe it is a good value. I am using it indoors in a high-traffic area, and it is holding up nicely. It is not a rug that I would use in the middle of a living area where kids or pets would lay on it, because it isn't soft. However, it is an indoor/outdoor rug, so it is not expected to be soft. So far, I haven't had any problems with dirt or stains, but from reading other reviews, I don't think I will.
It is an outdoor rug so dont have too many expectations about it- not wowed by it but it was fine i had 2 others before this that i did not like the lines are pixleated not clean straight lines which is fine for me it met my exepectations- i wanted a rug i can rub out a coffee spill from and that did not have white in it (to withstand dirt from shoes) and i like the modern chevron color
I was disappointed in the overall look. I ordered the grey and that color was true to the picture but the other color described as beige was more a tan and much darker than pictured. The size of the zig zag was twice the width of the picture. I ordered the 5 x 8 size and it might have looked better in a larger rug size. Overall it just didn't work for me but Overstock gave me full credit on my account and paid to ship it back. Luckily I found another rug from them and used my credits towards that purchase. They are the best in customer service!
Per previous reviews, yes the pattern on the rug is pixilated but this is not a wool nor high grade rug. It is a great casual piece with low pile for a high traffic area. I have it in my living room under the large ottoman which serves as a great accent piece and a high traffic debris/dirt catcher. I love it as a contemporary piece for my casual cottage theme and have ordered a second one for the family room/sitting area.
It's what you see online. Perfect for outside. Time will tell how well it lasts.
Seriously, its just okay. Not thrilled with my purchase. I will never buy another rug online! You just can't tell what you are getting. I was expecting something better after reading the reviews. It's very cheap and flimsy.
We've had the rug for a few months now and still love it! I'm really surprised how soft this rug is considering it is an inside/outside rug. We have small children so we are crawling around on the rug frequently. It also is very easy to clean up spills, which is one of the reasons we purchased it. The only thing I wish was different is that the beige color on the rug is darker than it appears in the picture online. I wish it was a bit lighter, but overall still love the look and feel.

Every step you take toward eating more fruits and veggies helps you and your family stay healthy. Since eating fruits and vegetables may reduce your family's risk of many diseases, the Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend eating more fruits and vegetables than any other food group.
Fruits and vegetables can be great sources of the following important nutrients:
Fiber: Diets rich in dietary fiber have been shown to provide a number of health benefits, including decreased risk of coronary heart disease.
Magnesium: Supports normal muscle and nerve function, a steady heart rhythm and a healthy immune system.
Folate: Healthful diets with adequate folate may reduce a woman's risk of having a child with a brain or spinal cord defect.
Potassium: Diets rich in potassium may help to maintain a healthy blood pressure.
Vitamin A: Keeps eyes and skin healthy and helps protect against infections.
Vitamin C: Helps heal cuts and wounds and keeps teeth and gums healthy.
Aim for Variety Every fruit and vegetable has a unique nutritional "fingerprint." When striving for good nutrition, aim for variety. All forms of fruits and veggies are healthy options - fresh, frozen, canned, dried and 100% juice. To get the broadest range of nutrients, all colors are important - red, green, yellow, blue, purple, white and orange.

"The Hunt"
"The Hunt" is a painting I am currently in the process of completing in the next day or so. It is of a Leopard coming from behind the bushes, and getting ready to pounce on his prey. I will admit, the spots, the position of this animal, and the leering look on his face have all been a very big challenge. Stay tuned, this painting should be completed by Friday.

I am addressing multiple comments that have been posted here...
Jim has no one to blame but his self. He was given more than a single opportunity to get his act together.
The past and current administration holds employees accountable, as they should, and as the public expects, for misconduct. It would be a lot easier just to sweep problems under the rug or tranfser a problem to another secton or unit, but what message does that send to the vast majority of dedicated, hard working employees? When a deputy receives found property, it is to be documented and submitted into the property room. He knew better than to store it in his gear bag. That's just dumb, lazy and ripe with unethical intent. A pattern that, for whatever reason, Jim had fallen into. It's not surprising that he believes his problems to be the fault of everyone else.
Concerning comments about experience and leadership, being the constitutionally, elected sheriff, especially of a county of this size, involves a WHOLE lot more than just being the top cop. Accountability, leadership and managerial experience is imperative. The sheriff must understand managing a multi-million dollar budget, leading over 200 employees and the many constitutional responsibilities that comes with such an important, historical and respected position. The Vanderburgh County Sheriff's Office has a long, established record of grooming people for this Office, such as Chief Deputy Wedding. His experience in command and executive leadership far exceeds that of any known or rumored candidate. He seeks the position because he cares about the Office where he has spent a large part of his life. He has risen through the ranks, taking on additional responsibility and accountability with each promotion. He has taken a career path that is natural progression to serve as our next sheriff.
Are you kidding me. Wedding couldn't even manage a traffic grant of 10 deputies. Oh yes he was in charge of the stats, the hours and who worked it. Now you say that he can lead the agency? I'm sure he can as long as Eric tells him what to do.

Overcoming My Fears with Faith
Last year our pastor, Ryan Bell, invited members of our church to participate in a ten-week dialogue with Muslims from a local mosque. He explained that we'd be working with curriculum from a program called Standing Together, which provided videos, questions and conversation topics for our bi-monthly interfaith meetings. We'd meet both at our place of worship and at theirs. I was interested but unsure. Fear and excitement began churning in my mind. Slowly they simmered, creating a concoction I hoped might prove palatable. I guess I could check it out, I thought to myself, show up to a meeting or two, maybe make a friend.
Our church is, in large part, made up of young creative types whose rather scattered work and leisure activities often make it hard for us to coordinate a decent potluck. We tend to revel in our postmodern ability to be and do a little of this and that and lean against the borders of traditional Biblical interpretation and practice. And it's served us well attitudinally. Among Adventist churches, we're known for our openness—everyone is welcome at "The Purple Church"—but it's been less helpful when crafting or engaging in events that require our consistency. Our pastor was clear, this was not an activity for the flaky. He pulled out the big guns—employed use of the dreaded "c-word" (commitment), and so I was faced with a decision: all or nothing.
I love learning. I love friendships. I love dialogue. So my trepidation about joining the Standing Together conversation was, on the surface, slightly out of character. But people and fears alike are trees, they take time to grow and they're complicated—a network of leaves, branches and roots shaped by their environment: the creatures that build their homes there, the gusting wind and sunlight, the consistency of the soil, the shade from other taller, vegetation. My mind was soaring with the possibilities: What if I don't know enough about my own faith to dialogue about it with others? What if this conversation makes me doubt my own beliefs? What if I don't like the people in the other group? What if I don't make all the meetings and make our church look bad?
My doubts showed me my tree, the shape and size of it and, most importantly, where it was planted. Thus far, I'd managed to keep my leaves neatly within our purple, mid-century church walls. But the sun and fresh air were calling—would I stay in the nursery? If only I could have some reassurance that I'd come out unscathed, leaves bright green and branches intact.
In the first century the Apostle Paul reminded early Christians in Corinth that while we live here on earth in our bodily "tent" (appropriate language from Paul, the tentmaker from Tarsus), "we walk by faith, not by sight." We follow God where he is leading us without knowing the end result. I found myself in a crisis of faith, asking for sight—for assurance, for guarantees about myself and about the future, and God grew silent in my prayers, the doors left open for my step of faith. And I took it, with a group of roughly twenty-five people, Christian and Muslim, willing to cast aside their sight, to walk blind into the unknown armed with a hope that what we already had in common—a desire for peace and understanding—would be enough guide us through and into the center of our fear.
Finding Allies
Our meetings began, first at our church, then at the mosque. The curriculum guided us through questions about death and judgment, Jesus and Mohammed, pilgrimage, baptism and more. The topics created some conflict, but to my surprise, it didn't arise frequently between the Muslim and Christian participants. Instead, it arose more often between Christian and Christian, Muslim and Muslim. Questions like What is the gospel? produced an array of conflicting answers on our end, leaving our Muslim friends scratching their heads. Both parties struggled internally with the interpretation and application of scripture: Should it be read in context? Is violence permitted or encouraged? How should women be involved in ministry? Verses were frequently cited, but consensus on how they should be applied was rarely achieved.
Week in and week out this exercise taught me something very important: Muslims, like Christians, are not all same. Not in the way they act, not in what they believe, not in how they interpret their texts. Our consensus-less dialogue had left little room for stereotypes. And that exposed another important truth: breaking down stereotypes happens in community. We can read widely, pray deeply and think sincerely, but until we have put faces on our "others," we're going to have hard time combating what we see in the media and the ideas we've grown up with, whether we're conscious of them or not.
What's more, we found common ground on unexpected topics. We felt frustrated with the rise of extremist text interpretation and practice in our respective traditions. We vented about the dilemmas of belonging to religions that were commonly characterized by the actions of their most negative adherents. We talked about our struggles to reclaim love and peace as central to our understanding of our sacred texts. And before I knew it, I'd found allies. Our Muslim friends knew well what it was like to live between a rock and a hard place, facing adversity from the outside world and from within their own tradition as they advocated for a moderate, contemporary, love-based Islam. It felt like we were struggling together to live out the best, most generous versions of our faith traditions.
Expanding My Faith
One of my early concerns about committing to the meetings was a fear that my own beliefs might be threatened, or in some way unraveled. In my fear, I'd only considered a worse-case scenario: me sitting up late at night, a Bible in one hand and Quran in the other, desperately flipping pages, vainly attempting to discern which book was true, in which parts, and if they were compatible. But I had forgotten a core principle of my own Christian beliefs: Jesus is truth, God is truth. Truth is not a book (though truths can be found there), not a belief (though they can lead us to truth), but a being.
Truth is living and dynamic because it's the Spirit of God. Wherever it's found, God is found too. For those of us who believe this, it's not a principle that's to be taken lightly. If we're wise, we won't prance around absorbing anyone and anything claiming truth. In Christianity, we test claims of truth. We believe we can discern truth in a variety of ways: by living in community, by comparing the truth we find to our scriptures, by staying connected with God's spirit. So while experiencing truth as a Christian is not a free-for-all, it's also not something that can only be experienced within our own religious system, because we believe that God is everywhere. And if God is everywhere and God is truth, then truth is everywhere. Our new Muslim friends demonstrated this principle to me with ostensible ease.
We asked our interfaith partners some tough questions: Would Christians be a part of God's final plan? If God knows the number of your days, why would he let some people die and go to hell before they decided to follow him? Our Muslim friends would discuss our questions, several would answer us, but when they came to a point that was utterly confusing, they would all agree saying, We don't know. Allah is good. He will take care of it.
I very rarely hear Christians say I don't know when asked about things that can't be proven or easily comprehended, like the afterlife. We tend to lack trust and humility in that area. Instead of believing that God will take care of us we become insistent on the details—we insert certainty into the uncertain. We trust the certainty of how instead of the certainty of who and in so doing, rob ourselves of our faith in God's character, which we profess is ultimately good, compassionate, all-knowing and loving.
Returning again to the Apostle Paul's metaphor, we are often guilty of demanding sight in regards to matters such as life after death. Our Muslim friends, in contrast, were showing me an example of living by faith: throwing one's hands up and saying, I don't know, but I know God and I know his good character, and he will take care of us all.Their belief challenged me and it changed me, allowing me to release myself and others into God's care. Engaging with them had, in fact, expanded my understanding of faith, not diminished it. So much for keeping my tree intact. My size and shape were changing. But to my surprise, where I expected tattered leaves and broken branches, I found tiny blossoms instead—it just took some pruning from hands on the outside.
An Experience of Love
A few months after our meetings ended, I sat with a melting iced latte in my hand, brewed at one of Silver Lake's infamously trendy coffee spots. Across the table from me my bright-eyed girlfriend was recounting the events of her day. She works as a child nutrition specialist for the Los Angeles Regional Foodbank and spends most of her time helping schools with their lunch programs. We'd decided that day to celebrate our birthdays—both in the month of October—with a coffee date. As we mused about our own childhood cafeteria memories and the joys of drinking chocolate milk directly from the carton, I couldn't help but remember—at that point with some amusement—my apprehension about joining the Standing Together conversation. It was the place where my bright-eyed friend and I met. She was a member of the Muslim group. Looking back I can see that purpose of my Standing Together journey was not to somehow reconcile Christianity with Islam or to compare their various merits, but rather to exercise and experience love—the foundation of my faith and the essence of God. The Apostle John writes that, "Perfect love casts out fear." And fear was hard to find that day between sips of java—quietly evaporating in the warm sunlight of friendship.

The new year is quickly approaching and with that come New Year's resolution I know -- to break -- back up for all of you who made them last year didn't follow them but.
Have you got one -- two.
But how about making more money how about that resolution Jefferies let's bring -- -- investor place dot com editor he's taken a look at some of the most popular resolutions.
That's a portfolio plays have you to go without -- to come up -- -- Well you know I was kind of looking at ways to make more money in the new year that's an idea I've never really been one effort for New Year's resolutions and -- my ever been like my ice cream I -- sick of sitting welcomed in the decision I've.
So you know you can make money on these trades and maybe you can feel better about the fact you're helping other people what their resolutions -- -- lies we tell ourselves in -- -- anymore ice -- and -- -- and just buy some of these stocks you can about -- about.
Right that -- spend less than but I like the flip side of that which is make more money at least on certain stock picks that you have come up with which I think is very clever.
-- pick for each resolution and we can start with one of the most obvious resolutions and that is to improve our diet.
And -- to eat more helpfully and what's your pick for that.
Well I think that you know there's lot of fad diets and some like that out there about you know if you think about how food in general just a secular trend didn't.
Eating stuff that's more organic it's better for them they want premium stuff especially if they're eating out less on in these tough economic times -- -- do that whole foods is kind of a natural place for me.
-- got a five year growth rate of 20% its earnings and revenue or appear every year all the way back through the recessions this is -- company that hasn't -- The recent downturn in earnings it's also done very very well in the past -- years -- when others haven't when you look at grocery stores in general the margins are very thin.
But whole foods actually has pretty hot hefty margins because that's prepared food is cuts and premium products so if you wanna play that angle I think this is -- the -- at.
And -- think just saying that they were able to lower a few of their items in price and have still managed to keep those margins healthy.
Yeah that's what happens when I mean we still an apple when you when your top dog in the -- business and it really helps even if you should just a little bit off you still hadn't shoulders about the competitors accompanying.
The -- here Kroger -- the number two most popular resolutions gotta be fitness get more fit work out more what's your pick for that one.
Again I.
Actually it.
-- Porter just that the breaking news on my deactivate if I had not yet have a maximum news -- here but I really like Under -- because.
It's been able to erode some of that market share that Nike has not just in -- premium performance apparel stuff for.
-- I -- here in the Washington DC area it's right up the road in Baltimore and on arms and really good job of kind of diversifying into regular casual apparel polo stuff like that.
I think it's a big brand again the growth speaks for itself -- 1% growth rate.
Or earnings and revenue continued up you every year so I really like momentum behind us stock New Year's some people look for a new job what's your new jobs out there -- Well I I think Linkedin is one of the few stories we've seen from the IPO market the last couple years it's actually legit.
I mean it doubled on its first day -- trading almost.
-- stuck there hasn't evaporated -- some of those other stocks we've talked about like Groupon and FaceBook and Zynga so this is -- stock and that's because its customers are real kids is how people look for jobs I mean people don't look at hot jobs anymore to get stuff I mean hotjobs -- classified but I think -- is kind of -- -- the future.
-- I think that companies like monster and hotjobs should look out hotjobs on my Yahoo! should look out.
Hotjobs killed classifieds and it's true and then of course is that -- an old newspaper -- -- but again you know and it's true Jeff because the -- something -- hot that like that we it was at the Palm Pilot where's that now it was a hottest thing and now it's not hardly even in existence I think.
And taking more vacations using your vacation days in the new year.
Yeah I love Priceline I mean I think these -- my travel socks at the way people book travel consumers businesses.
-- -- -- hotels rental cars the thing that I really like about price sizing and you got this organic growth story there a year every year profits revenue continued to move up but it's not just.
This odd growth story that they have the positioning is really good for consumers right now everybody wants the deal they allow people to shop around they had a great -- -- -- that -- Expedia to that right.
Yeah and Expedia -- -- the music -- decides that the same -- about the little bit frothy I I have to admit.
Like -- whole foods with Under -- some -- -- growth he plays -- little propaganda -- side.
Especially Expedia which is that huge run this here.
But I mean if you look at international growth story these guys is not just the -- I think Priceline -- in something like 99 countries right now so.
You shouldn't just look to you know what your friends neighbors are -- -- hobby -- travel let's face -- we all look online I mean there's also big growth abroad for these companies and I think there's some good momentum there for people patented.
We loved the piece you did that's why we brought you want but he's got a whole bunch more we know those aren't the only resolution so go on our FaceBook dot com slash after the bell -- And we've got the rest of Jeff reads picks for the New Year's resolutions Jefferies investor -- dot com he's the editor thanks got a much.
Virginia David over -- -- Well the clock is ticking a way to these budget cuts and big tax hikes for everybody can progress of the White House.

I still remember being a kid and spending hot summer days at my Grandma's non air-conditioned house sketching away. Drawing cars that looked like houses and horses that looked like aliens. I was just stoked to have a pencil and paper. She was a pastel artist and specialized in landscapes and portraits. I learned a lot from her. I learned how to use my "artistic license", how to spray a pastel painting with fixatif so the chalk didn't end up on your hands, your parents furniture, your cat etc. How there was never any TRUE black in a painting because subtle dark colors gave the piece so much more life, and to always treat compositions as if your eye was walking around the page. Hmm. For some reason this last tip always has stuck with me as one of my most important criteria for creating art.
**Doesn't it seem like art and design is full of a lot of rules? When I was in high school it was the rule of not letting out-of-control classmates trash your art projects. In college, it was a collection of principles that form almost everything I know about design now: complimentary colors, spatial tension, the delicate balance of positive and negative space, (and NOT farting in confined spaces like the computer lab). It's important to know the rules, that way you know which ones to follow, which ones to bend and which ones to break effectively.
Well boys and girls, let's take a look at a practical example. We will use the Kipahulu Bamboo Forest Print… [+]

Recipe by sugarplease
"This is an easy, quick, and inexpensive salad to make. Two cans of black-eyed peas, cherry tomatoes, purple onion, and Italian dressing!"
Watch video tips and tricks
2 (15 ounce) cans black-eyed peas, rinsed and drained
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1/2 small red onion, cut into slivers
1/2 cup light Italian-style salad dressing
This was super quick, easy and inexpensive but that's about it. The semi-mushy canned B-EPs just didn't hold up with the firmer textures of the tomatoes and onion. Maybe it would work better with, say, garbanzo beans? Thanks anyway!
I add chopped avacado and instead of Italian dressing I use Catalina.

Guess Which NBA Legend Has An Incredibly Stylish Daughter?
It's common knowledge that Magic Johnson is a Lakers basketball legend, but we bet you don't know that his daughter, Elisa Johnson, has serious game in the style department. We discovered the college freshman via her Instagram account, where she posts a steady stream of Rihanna-esque outfits peppered with a healthy dose of Givenchy.
Browse through her pictures to get a peek at her edgy street sensibility, and to gain the pleasure of knowing you discovered her back when—because we have a hunch this girl is on the brink of blowing up.
- Photo credit: Elisa Johnson
While Johnson is no stranger to designer items, you can also count on her for an introduction to incredible indie design, like Rik Villa's signature paisley pieces.

You know you've got style when you can make runs in your tights look good.

Croc-embossed creepers and gold ankle cuffs are totally on point.

Just when you try to pigeonhole Johnson's style, she'll surprise you with an effortlessly executed girly ensemble.
- Photo credit: Elisa Johnson
While her outfits are stunning, you'd be remiss to ignore Johnson's impressive jewelry. Her Celine chain choker makes a regular cameo.

Givenchy sweatshirts are the calling card of street style savants.
- Photo credit: Elisa Johnson
Forgive us for dwelling on her likeness to Rihanna, but the resemblance of Johnson in her Herve Leger bikini is striking.

Who says a tank dress has to be simple? Take it to the next level with a pile of gold accessories.
- Photo credit: Elisa Johnson
From the handful of rings to the cobalt snakeskin Celine bag, this may be the ultimate accessory shot.
- Photo credit: Elisa Johnson
Note to self: sneakers, skinnies, and a devastatingly cool t-shirt (Givenchy in Johnson's case) make a perfectly cool off-duty ensemble.
Alexander Wang Croc Embossed Boxer Short ($425)
Topshop The Collection Starring Kate Bosworth Aviator Sunglasses ($24) in Lilac
Givenchy American Dream Printed Vest ($319)
ASOS Jumbo ID Necklace ($27)
Purified X George Cox Creeper 1 L Snake Shoe ($601)
Herve Leger Erika Bikini ($335)

President Obama announced he'll ask Congress for more than $1 billion in additional funding, to extend an education grant program. He made the announcement at Graham Road Elementary School in Falls Church, Virginia.
Sixth graders Annie Thach and Tessa Bowles say they were excited and nervous when President Obama walked into the room.
"I was like 'oh my gosh'! I was actually so nervous when he shook my hand; I couldn't get the question out of my mouth," one said.
Lydia Seyoum says he also talked about why school was so important.
"He told us it was important to stick to our education so we could have a better future," says Seyoum.
The Race To The Top grants are meant to encourage states to improve education through different methods, including collecting data on how well students are doing in school, linking teacher performance with student scores and creating more charter schools. If the additional money is approved, local school districts will be able to compete as well.
D.C. and Virginia, along with 39 other states, have applied for a portion of the money. Maryland will apply during the second round in April. U.S. Department of Education says the process will be extremely competitive and not all states who apply will receive funding.
