Diamond-Covered Mercedes SL
It seems unlikely that there is a car with more bling on it than this Mercedes SL, spotted at an auto show overseas. From a distance, it almost appears that the car is coated in glitter, but it is actually covered in diamonds. I won't speculate on the value, but you can bet that this isn't a car just anyone will turn up in.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhItR2xMQbFg05idp8tcuJ7vFGdaV9KWSaIC6P4QCKbbHCHLpyiJgaD4DswJwM4cn0ZWzuZYpOnbvnE2SqI4TfLKS-SAF2cD_4c86GEWhzwZJ3AS47_bJxp6ZTC83Hj_E9ZUkywqdvBLmL0/s320/main+diamond+ring.jpg)

The Independent Career Woman
The idea was to go with the new wave of feminist thinking stressing upon women's independence wish – married or not, you still have to wear diamonds in your ring to reassess your leading position alongside men! It's a sort of impulse for the women who are generically tired of the role of housewives and feel they can do better with their lives. So, the left hand ring stands for the labors that marriage brings along - while the right hand ring reads as the careless, joyful side of life.
NEW YORK/LONDON (Reuters) - Gold ended 1 percent lower on Wednesday as the dollar climbed, oil prices feel and U.S. stocks rose, denting the precious metal’s appeal.
Gold’s decline was “pretty much forex related, and oil is coming down,” said senior Commerzbank trader Michael Kempinski. “We need to see come stronger commodities in general, and a stronger euro, to push gold higher again.”
The dollar rose to its highest level in a month against major currencies, pressuring bullion prices. Gold tends to move in the opposite direction of the U.S. currency, as it is often bought as an alternative investment.

The William Goldberg Diamond Corporation, famous for outstanding stones like the Premier Rose and the Guinea Star, cut this gem from a 13.90-carat rough. They transformed the piece into a spectacular red diamond weighing 5.11 carats. The GIA states, "It is the largest Fancy Red, natural color diamond that we have graded as of the date the report was issued." The stone is a triangular brilliant, sometimes refered to as a trillion or a trilliant cut. It was cut sometime in the mid-1990s, so its history is still relatively uneventful. Sometime around 2001 or 2002 the stone was purchased by Moussaieff Jewellers Ltd. The firm, while it has no website as of yet, is renowned for multi-million dollar pieces of jewelry and has locations in the United States as well as abroad.

A new carmaker has a plan for cheap, environmentally friendly cars to be built all over the country
An air-powered car? It may be available sooner than you think at a price tag that will hardly be a budget buster. The vehicle may not run like a speed racer on back road highways, but developer Zero Pollution Motors is betting consumers will be willing to fork over $20,000 for a vehicle that can motor around all day on nothing but air and a splash of salad oil, alcohol or possibly a pint of gasoline.Monday, November 3, 2008

They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Don't tell that to Chicago-based image consultant Martha Weir. "If beauty boils down to personal taste," she asks, "why are America's sex symbols Britney Spears, Jessica Simpson, and who-knows-how-many-other look-alikes?"
