Silver and black are perfect together in these hammered silver open oval earrings. The textured ovals are slightly curved and frame elongated beads of inky black onyx. Big enough to get noticed, but still comfortably lightweight, these earrings are a chic accent for every day. They dangle from sterling silver ear wires finished with beaded tips.

I was walking through the hardware store the other day and saw something new—a hammer. OK, it's not new but the S2 and V5 hammers from Vaughn certainly look different. I mean they have been designed, the kind of design that catches your eye as you walk through the super store aisles and makes you crank your head back, to confirm what you just saw. But that's not what is so impressive about thes

Hello people I haven't written one of these in a long time so welcome back to another Juice observation.I want to talk about all of you people who like to drink way too much.I don't understand drinking what's the appeal of being so messed up that you don't even remember having sex with some stranger on your friend's couch.I don't know about you but that doesn't sound like a good time to me.I alway

Uniquely designed necklace is enough for you to make this beauty lingers on your neck :-)

Not that we condone such behavior! Of course, the mantra of the eco conscsious is to "reduce." So drinking in excess is clearly in violation of that mantra. However, we are human and our nature is to err, and St. Paddy's Day is around the corner, so let's be real. If you plan to cocktail it up a bit, consider some organic alternatives.At this point in time, organic liquor, wine and beer is not found abundantly in stores, bars or restaurants. If you are headed out, an eco eatery will most likely have the largest assortment of libations from which to choose. City dwellers will have many options here. Rural/suburban dwellers should continue their "in house"drinking. These folks can either plan ahead and order online or hit the Whole Food/Wild Oats and sample some of their organic beer select

I absolutely love the “realness” of these types of pictures. It’s getting to the point where I’m more aroused by this stuff than by porn. What the hell is happening to me? I’m getting really scared that pictures of really drunk girls turn me on this much. Wait. What? There’s zero wrong with me. But I will say this: I miss that life dearly. To get into the last three years of my life would be something too long, and too deep to discuss. However, I can tell you I’ve been a happy little man. I truly have. My lady treats me well and even lets me watch porn while she blows me. That’s more than I can say for most guys. But this? These pictures? They make me realize what life USED to be like. When life didn’t matter. When life was so foggy you’d let a picture like this slip and be viewed by thousands of people over the internet. I couldn’t be any further from that reality if I tried. Let’s examine th

By: Anthony Travis With demand far outstripping supply when it comes to old hammered coins, getting the best price can often be a real challenge for avid collectors and those that are buying hammered coins with a view to selling them and making a profit. Whatever your intention after you have bought your hammered coin, ensuring that you get the best deal is essential.Getting a fair price is obviously imperative for buyers, however no more so than ensuring that they do not get ripped off by buying something which is either not authentic or not as valuable as their initial research or presumptions would suggest. That is why you always need to go to measures to ensuring that you are buying the real deal. Often collectors and dealer will have experience in this area and will know what to look out for. If you do not, then you need to be seriously considering the trustworthiness of your source. You should ask them about the origins of the piece, how it came into their hands, if they offer a

Finally Fred Thompson had a chance to distinguish himself from the pact. He did!! After many months of on the edge of jumping into the race, Thompson, former senator and actor, who positioned himself as a conservative Washington outsider, debuted in his first debate.October 9 became a red letter day, when Thompson would again try to show that he had what it takes to sufficiently impress the faith community, after a lackluster start in September. But again, according to the polls, he failed to muster much excitement. An apparent false start? Predicted as unstoppable he was somehow to edge Rudy out of the race, but thus far, this has merely been wishful thinking. Fred Thompson in a survey (Campaigns and Elections), after the debate scored, as the worse performer among the group. A mixed review saw someone who was neither witty, sharp tongued or a wacko, but his less than eloquent delivery, has shattered expectations. He was not hammered, but made no headlines. The buzz-- he shows no grit

By: Anthony Travis When it comes to evaluating the price of hammered coins it is much more challenging than it is for other items that are still manufactured today. That is why both buyers and sellers have to be extra vigilant in ensuring that they buy and sell for a fair price. If you are considering selling or buying hammered coins, make sure that you seek professional advice before doing so and that you do not simply jump in at the first offer. Before you buy and sell hammered silver coins, or hammered gold coins for that matter, you firstly have to consider how much they are worth to you. If the market suggests a price that is much lower than what it is worth to you, then buy rather than sell. If the market suggests a price that is much higher than what it is worth to you, then sell rather than buy. Although that may seem simple, there are also other factors to consider. One thing you have to be careful about is ensuring the item you are buying, or selling, is authentic. If you are

A mild day on Wall Street quickly became a major selloff for yet another day. After being up about 138 points, the Dow Jones reversed the move to end down over 146 points to 13,211. Prices for Crude Oil appeared to be the culprit, subduing a rally for much of the day. The September oil contract was up $1.38 to $78.21 per barrel. After crossing the $78 mark, many investors became worried about the pressure on stocks, and the selloff ensued. News about a lending company’s need to liquidate assets also weighed on market sentiment. Once again, the worry over sub-prime was introduced. Many banks and lenders were hit hard today. Goldman Sachs (GS) continued to fall because of this very issue, down more than 7 points to $188.40 per share. The market appears to be suffering from irrational periods of heavy market selling. Therefore, investors should consistently be looking for opportunities to get into companies that have sold off unfairly. Disclosure: Long Goldman Sachs (GS)

Well, I guess Christmas came a little early this year… for the shorts. I mentioned before that it was quite likely that Dendreon (DNDN) would fall as May 15 came closer, but I certainly didn’t expect today’s premarket ravaging. DNDN opened at $7.20 today, down almost 60% from yesterday’s close of $17.74. While this isn’t necessarily the end of the line for Dendreon, this certainly strikes a harsh blow to Provenge’s short term prospects. Despite the positive recommendation from an advisory panel that caused DNDN’s skyrocket a few weeks ago, it appears that the FDA is not ready to approve the release of Provenge. It isn’t clear at the moment what the FDA is requiring but the issuance of an approval letter implies that additional trials will be required. Dendreon is in the process of running more trials, but results aren’t expected until 2010 at the earliest. This is definitely the worst case scenario for Short interest in DNDN rose f

Akamai Technologies (AKAM) is the top provider of media content and delivery for the entire internet. By improving the speed and system for audiences, Akamai delivers a better a quality product at a faster pace. Ultimately, this unique business model and recent success appears to be overlooked, as the 1st quarter results are plummeting Akamai shares in the after hours. Revenue jumped 53 percent to $139.3 million. Net income for the first quarter rose to $19.2 million, or 11 cents per diluted share, compared with the year-earlier quarter’s $11.5 million, or 7 cents per diluted share. Average estimates on Wall Street were $0.11, which was in-line. The street was also looking for revenue at $138.8 million, which was was below actual results. Despite the in-line to above average results, Akamai shares fell more than 10 percent in trading today to $48.97 per share. The reasoning behind the most recent drop is still unclear, and the earnings are hardly negative in any sense. It’

Remember this excellent ad sponsored by the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence ? Well. One week after its publication, the ShootFirstLaw.org website is down... or should I say it's been Hammered down ?I would then pay a well deserve tribute to a former NRA president, Marion P. Hammer, now head of Unified Sportsmen of Florida and the main lobbyist behind this amazing law signed by Jeb Bush last april ("44" proudly declared the so called "Castle Doctrine" a "good, common sense, anti-crime issue").The crime is to let these gangsters run the country. The Far West is heading further to the extreme right and still no sheriff in sight.And where on Earth are the Dems ? They should be the ones shooting on sight : consider what a Rove could do with all the material this excuse for an administration delivers every day, how come no Dove is able to expose it ?

Oh, the dreaded secondary offering...I'm watching for a blow off bottom but it's not quite there yet. Given the action late last week after earnings came out, I would LOVE it if bottoms around $19. We shall see.Disclaimer: This is not a recommendation to anyone to buy anything.
