JA New York Debuts Carl Blackburn’s Neo Classics
(ContentDesk) April 26, 2006 -- For the past several months visitors to Carl Blackburns online home have been tantalized by sketches and sneak previews of the jewelry designers new couture line of diamond jewelry. At last the vintage-inspired California jeweler has emerged from his studios to announce the unveiling of his Neo Classics" 2007 collection of handcrafted jewelry creations at the JA New York Summer Show, July 30th August 2nd.Overflowing with regal and feminine touches that recall an earlier age when refinement and elegance prevailed, the collection bridges the gap between time-honored jewelry design and the contemporary joie de vivre of the 21st century woman. Crafted in various combinations of platinum and 18K white, yellow, and rose gold, each diamond-set piece displays the Old World hallmarks that have come to symbolize the Carl Blackburn brand. Blackburns signature hand-milgraining, hand-engraving, and fine filigree work have been taken to luxurious new heights, and are often harmonized by a Victorian-style open-work mesh that is remarkably contemporary.While the creation of his latest line has been a demanding experience for the purpose-driven designer, Blackburn has no plans of slowing down anytime soon. The avid outdoorsman continues to seek out inspiration in the natural world around him (as well as in the jewelry archives of the past), while also contributing his voice to the international magazines of the Solitaire Media Group, from where he has emerged a global voice for sustainable luxury and handcraftsmanship. Our lives are a series of plateaus, says Blackburn.

Investors Put Their Money Where Their Faith Is
It came as no surprise Friday when shares of A.G. Media Group (OTC:AMGJ.PK) soared 80% above Thursday's closing price. Christian Traders - http://christiantraders.com, the internet's fastest growing faith-based online investment community, first alerted members to A.G. Media last fall and has since conducted several live interviews with management via the international radio show "Prosperity for God's People".Christian investors are faced with a daunting task. While all investors understand the financial necessity of planning for retirement, their children's education, and of course the inevitable rainy day, many of the best investment opportunities directly conflict with the morals and values of Christian men and women.

London before the War to End all Wars
At the start of the 20th century, London was a larger, busier place than it had ever been before. One could buy fresh fish from Billingsgate, meat from Smithfield Market, flowers and vegetables from Covent Garden, clocks from Clerkenwell Road, diamonds from Hatton Garden; all kinds of goods were readily available.
As a thriving centre of trade London had become very much the centre of the world's largest empire. Giant liners traversed the oceans; electric lighting was beginning to appear, and horseless carriages could occasionally be seen on the streets. Many of the things destined to play a major part in twentieth-century life were here already.
But at the same time for most people there was little difference between this London and the city of fifty years previously. Victoria was still on the throne; there was still dire poverty, and those who were without work had to survive on charity and scavenging.

Starter Failure: Now What?
Your vehicle's electrical system is equipped with an alternator, a battery, fuses, a starter, wires, and related parts. If your car is having difficulty starting and you have ruled out the alternator, battery, and fuses, as well as have checked all of the connections, it is likely that the starter is bad and it will need to be replaced. What type of starter should you purchase? The answer may very well depend on your budget.1. Reliably rebuilt...or not. You can find bargain priced starters if you decide to purchase one that has been rebuilt. True, the quality may be suspect, but the price cannot be beat...except at a junk yard.
Remember: you get what you pay for!2. Junk yard jewels. I have a buddy who likes to go to the junk yard to find replacement parts for his vehicles. He doesn't always find what he wants, but he has been able to pull several starters off from some of the junkers. Some work, some don't while others may work for awhile and then crap out a few...
