Just wanted to let everyone know of an upcoming Huggies deal at Walgreens. The week of March 8 through the 14th, if you purchase $25 of participating Huggies products, you will recieve a $10 Register Reward (also known as RR) towards your next purchase. Register Rewards can be used on just about anything but there are exclusions, usually alcohol, tobacco, etc. So the Huggies Jumbo packs of diapers or training pants are on sale for $10 and the Huggies wipes 184 ct or 232 ct are on sale for $6. So the best deal I can come up with is this:
Huggies Jumbo packs x 2 = $20 ($10 each)
Huggies wipes x 1 = $6
Total for all is $26
Print out 2 of the $5 Huggies coupons on the right hand side coupon bar located here on this blog, use both of those.
Total is now $16. If you have a $.50 wipes coupon, you can use it as well, but I don't have that coupon. So you will end up paying $16 OOP (Out of Pocket) but you will recieve a Register Reward for $10, so essentially, you are paying $6 for 2 packs of Huggies diapers, as well as a large pack of wipes. Great time to stock up!!

Medieval Jewelry Put on Display
Medieval Jewelry is one of the oldest forms of body adornment. The beads with a history of 100,000 year-old made from Nassarius shells are thought to be the oldest known medieval jewelry. In the ancient world gold was the preferred metal for making jewelry. It was rare, did not tarnish and best of all it was malleable, so it could be worked fairly easily.
It is reported that two priceless hoards of medieval jewelry and coins have gone on display in the UK for the first time.
It is reported that two priceless hoards of medieval jewelry and coins have gone on display in the UK for the first time.Among those precious finds, some can be traced to the 14th Century. Three of the earliest known examples of Jewish wedding rings have been displayed at London's Wallace Collection.
As for the origin of those items, experts say they were buried by families when there was Black Death in Europe. Stephen Duffy, of the Wallace Collection, in Manchester Square, said the items were "very rare and unusual survivors from the medieval period".
One part of the display was found in the walls of a house in Colmar, France in 1863, while the lager part was found later than the first one, in 1998 at Erfurt, Germany. She said: "It is impossible to put a value on such unique objects."
Karin Sczech, German archaeologist and curator of the exhibition said: "It is impossible to put a value on such unique objects."As well as being precious stones and materials, the items have great cultural and historical significance.

Diamond Grade-How to Grade Diamonds
From chemistry point of view, diamond is a mineral and is the hardest substance that already known by human being in the world. It is composed of carbon. Its earliest record dates back to some 3000 years ago in India. Diamonds have always been associated with mystical power and great beauty throughout the history. Recently they are endowed with another meaning-the symbol of power and wealth.
If you are going to spend a substantial amount of money on a diamond, it is necessary to learn diamond grade and how diamonds are graded.
Diamonds are available in varying colors, sizes and qualities. Naturally their colors rang from very clear fine whites to pinks, bright yellows, greens and browns. The majority of diamonds used in jewelry today are white diamonds.
The value of a white diamond is determined by what are commonly referred to as the 4Cs. The 4Cs are the Diamond's Cut, Color, Clarity and Carat. Each of the 4Cs is important and the most valuable Diamonds are those that possess the best of all four measurements.
Clarity is the term used to describe the size and number of flaws known as inclusions in a diamond. The most brilliant diamond always has the fewest inclusions. So the fewer inclusions diamonds have the more valuable they are.
Diamond color grades start at D and continue through the alphabet. Truly colorless stones, graded D, are extremely rare and very valuable. The closer a diamond is to being colorless, the rarer and more valuable it is.
Carat is comparatively common term to us. The weight of a diamond is measured in carats, which is easily for us to understand. The larger the diamond (and therefore the rarer) the more expensive per carat it will be.
While nature determines a diamond's color, clarity, and carat weight, the hand of a master craftsman is needed to release its fire and beauty. The cut gives each diamond its unique sparkle and brilliance by allowing the maximum amount of light to enter and reflect back out of the diamond.
To find the best Diamond that fits within your price range it essentially comes down to a compromise between the 4Cs and your consideration of which factors are most important to you. If you really want a larger stone on a limited budget you could decide to purchase a stone which is graded slightly lower in terms of clarity and color.

Jewelry Temptation-How much is the necklace worth
Now, let's read a story - Jewelry Temptation first, and then we will know that how much is the necklace worth.
"Necklace", wrote by French writer Mobosang, is the world literature in the short story of rare works. The heroine Mathilde, is the wife of a small staff of the Ministry of Education. She dressed plainly because she could not dress well, but she was unhappy as if she had really fallen from a higher station; however，she suffered ceaselessly, feeling herself born to enjoy all delicacies and all luxuries. When a chance comes, her husband and she were invited to an upper class ball; she borrowed a beautiful diamond necklace to attend it. Her vanity was fully satisfied that night. But unfortunately, after the ball she found that she had lost the necklace.
Then she borrowed a large amount of money and spent 36,000 francs to buy a new necklace, with the appearance of the one she had borrowed. Of course, when she "returned" the necklace, she didn't tell her friend the truth. After that, Mathilde and her husband lived an extremely destitute life for 10 years and finally repaid the debt.
However, how much is the necklace worth? Later, she accidentally met her friend, whom she had borrowed the necklace from, and knew that the necklace she had lost was a fake, worth no more than 500 francs.

In the story, when the heroine discovered the necklace, her heart throbbed with an immoderate desire. Her hands trembled as she took it. She fastened it round her throat, outside her high-necked waist, and was lost in ecstasy at her reflection in the mirror." We can feel that how a diamond necklace can tempt a woman.
In fact, jewellery always has great temptation to women, no matter necklaces, earrings or bracelets. Any woman, anywhere, at anytime, can be attracted by any jewelry. So if you love a woman, the best gift for her will be beautiful jewelry.

How to tell if your pearl necklace or earring is real or fake?
My colleagues and i love pearl jewelry very much, sometimes we will talk about how to tell if our pearl necklaces or earrings are real or fake, i will list our methods to distinguish between real pearls and fakes. I hope they will be helpful to you too.
First, real pearl necklaces or earrings feel rough or gritty, but fake pearls feel smooth.
In order to test them, we can rub two pearls gently together, if the surfaces are glassy smooth, these pearl necklaces or earrings are probably artificial. However, if the surfaces are texture, these pearl necklaces or earrings are probably genuine. Another funny test is to test by rubbing a real or fake pearl against your tooth. If the pearl is made of plastic or glass, it will feel smooth. If the pear is real, we can see natural texture on the pearl necklace or earring.
Second, if the pearl necklace or earring is sold at an unbelivable price, i think we need to test it more carefully, as we all know, there are no pies dropping from the sky.
Third, imitation pearl necklaces or earrings are usally made by glass or plastic beads, the coating will chip over time. So we can check pearl necklaces or earrings near holes drilled trough them for tiny chips or flakes. If you see some chips, your pearl necklaces or earrings may be fake.
Fourth, real pearls can be either natural or cultured. Natural pearls are usually irregularly shaped and not very attractive, so the naturally round pearls are precious. However, the majority of perfectly shaped pearls are cultured.
At last, if you have better methods to test if pearl necklace or earring is real or not, please share with us! Good luck!

Top New Face Model Hilary Rowland Biography
Hilary Rowland is described by those who`ve met her as "one of those self-described `serial entrepreneurs` who`s started fifty businesses, none of which you`ve ever heard of." Perhaps the most prominent of those is "Hilary Magazine"—a vital publication she calls the first ever online women`s magazine (sample 2006 story: "A Childhood Trapped Inside the Playboy Mansion").She`s further described as a "world champion name dropper," something that seems to be borne out by, for example, her Twitter feed. Look, she calls Richard Branson by his firstie!
According to her own bio, she also started newfaces.com, a model portfolio site. Where she has her own profile because she is, in addition to being an internet entrepreneur, an actual model!
Nothing wrong with modeling, of course. What irks people about Rowland is that they say she`s an outrageous self promoting, name dropping, celebrity-hounding model disguised as an internet entrepreneur. And, apparently, a bore. According to one acquaintance, she was at a party for internet types, and her method of socializing was to start reeling off her own resume starting at age 17, running up to the present day. When someone else walked in and joined the conversation, she`d stop, go back to the beginning, and give her whole self presentation over again.
And where do her flaws manifest themselves most thoroughly? On her Facebook page, of course! There, her armada of friends can access her "hanging with friends" album, where she most casually lets you know about her good times spent with her close, personal superstar friends.
She makes the rounds of various do-gooder tech entrepreneur events, which are all more or less cocktail parties disguised as charity events. Her full-fledged embrace of this world strikes some as her worst quality of all: self congratulatory self promotion dressed up as futuristic world-saving. At the Mexico Summit, says one source, "they handed shoes out to little brown kids...in between cocktails."
These internet types are catty! It would obviously be wrong to think that you had a full picture of Hilary Rowland without spending some time with her in person. But it was time for us to bring her to your attention. The cozying up to internet millionaires; the posing as a new media entrepreneur; the shameless self promotion, name dropping, and provocative poses; she reminds us of an old friend.
