gems

A 1980s flea market find turns out to be a 26-carat diamond.
Still riding the high from my 26th birthday this past week, I wanted to share the second release from my GEMS remix series. I love Terius Nash, so I went through the all of my CDs and decided to remix one of my favorites "Luv Songs" and flipped it into club-friendly jam that's safe for sultry body rolls.
Gemstones are more than just pretty ornaments. These natural, Earth-based beauties also have the power to heal, protect, relax and clarify. Certain gemstones are particularly beneficial for each zodiac sign. Look up yours below:
Clam chowder. Clam bake. Clam up. Tight as a clam. As happy as a clam. OK, but you don't normally associate the filter-feeding, plankton-feasting bivalve mollusc -- you probably won't use that term either -- with gems. Oysters, yes, but clams?
The hills and mountains around the world are filled with rare and beautiful mineral gemstones, some of which are more rare and valuable than diamonds.
