POOR old De Beers is being harassed on all sides.
Though the diamond giant claims everything is tickety-boo with resurgent sales, chairman Julian Ogilvie Thompson warns of 'the likely increases in the flow of rough diamonds from Angola and the US stockpile, and uncertainty over possible leakages of Russian goods'.
All very ominous but cynics are also remarking on the coincidence that the £150 million recently raised on the capital markets equates neatly with the cost of the current final dividend payout.

I go to a website called the Happiness project. Today they had the article below. Hopefully, you love your job much more than I do mine but you might still benefit from a tip or two.

Comedian Mark Russell was at a recent event in Chicago, Illinois, when he found himself sitting next to Valerie Jarrett, an adviser to President-elect Barack Obama.
Russell asked her whether President Bush's staff members were going to remove all the Os from their computer keyboards, alluding to the 2001 incident in which President Clinton's departing staff removed Ws from some White House computers.
Jarrett said no, but that didn't stop Russell from speculating what really happened when President Bush's daughters, Barbara and Jenna, gave Obama's two daughters a tour of the White House recently.

It was a total switch, selling away my Victorian antiques and rich accessories used in my old home in Scotland to move to Finland, and an ultra-modern, ultra-white flat flooded with light.
I decided to go from "very serious business" furniture to something that felt light, fresh and fun.
With a very tight budget in these first months after the cost of moving, I have had to be creative with what I kept and what I can afford to buy.

Okay, I'm 100% fashion impaired and I don't belong to any of the "Fashion/Outfit" groups on Sugar for that very reason, so I'm posting this publicly here in hopes that someone with taste might be able to help me out.
I'm going out tonight to an event that I had thought to be reasonably casual, but have recently learned that many people are dressing up and I thought maybe I should too. So I tossed the jeans and light sweater I had planned on wearing back into the closet and pulled out some skirts.

All the opposite of its horrible useless little sistah the blender, the Kitchen Aid stand mixer is awesome! I make mashed potatoes, cookies, muffins, etc. Just throw everything in and it does all the work for you.
