GLORIOUS GARNETS

AMETHYST: GEM OF ROYALTY

(Not Your Grandmother’s Ring) (PX) — If the name “garnet” reminds you of the red or brown stone in your grandmother’s ring, you’re in for a pleasant surprise. Garnet is actually the group name for a family of gemstones that come in every color except blue. They’re beautiful, durable, and most garnets are affordable. Best of all, more jewelry designers and manufacturers have discovered the joys of garnet, so you can find garnet jewelry at most price levels. “In all garnets, the brighter the color and the larger the gem, the more it costs,” says Lynn Ramsey, president of the Jewelry Information Center, a New York-based trade association. The majority of garnets come in sizes smaller than 10 carats, but a few family members grow much bigger. The name “garnet” comes from the Roman word granatus, meaning “seed,” as the gems were thought to resemble pomegranate seeds. The most common garnets are the red to red-brown varieties that people know best. Since ancient times, the red variety, called pyrope (from the Greek word for “fire”), often was confused with rubies and red spinels. Red garnets can show almost as much fire as rubies. Until the 18th century, garnets often were worn by soldiers to heal wounds and stop blood flow, as red stones were thought to influence the blood. They also were said to promote true love, warn of danger by changing color, and protect the wearer’s home from fire and lightning. Yellow, orange and brown garnets carry exotic names like almandite, topazolite, hessonite, spessartite, malaya and mandarinite. Yellow-orange to brown almandites are most common, and light yellow topazolites are rarest, but new finds in Africa and Asia have made all yellow, gold and orange garnets more available. Malaya garnets, whose name derives from a Bantu word meaning “deceiver,” can have the striking orangy-pink color of rare padparadscha sapphires or the gold of citrine. Garnets in all these colors were believed to stimulate energy, increase sexual vitality and promote compatibility in lovers. If you prefer spring or summer greens, tsavorite garnets from Africa come in clear light greens to rich dark greens and are more

Yellow-green to midgreen demantoid garnets are mostly found in antique jewelry. “Demantoid garnet is not widely mined today, so it is hard to find, but the color is exquisite,” says Owen Bordelon, of New Orleans, former president of the American Gem Trade Association. A translucent green garnet, misnamed “Transvaal Jade,” looks like light to medium milky green jade with tiny black spots. Called hydrogrossular garnet, it often has been used as an affordable jade substitute. Mothers in medieval Europe used to hang this garnet above their baby’s cradle for good health and sweet dreams. Green gemstones also were said to bring prosperity, calm the nerves and protect wearers from emotional stress. The pink to reddish-purple colors are in rhodolite garnets, the largest transparent species. Available in sizes as big as a grapefruit, rhodolites recently were found more widely in Africa. Deep purple-pink varieties are the most expensive. The lighter, sparkling bright pinks can resemble pink sapphires. They were believed to attract romance and cure broken hearts. Though garnets are tough, like all gemstones, special care must be taken, as some varieties can chip, according to Ramsey. “For jewels worn often, like rings, look for settings that protect the gem with metal,” she says. Also avoid steaming, abrupt temperature changes and acids, because they might damage gems. Ultrasound or warm water with mild detergent is recommended for cleaning. As a January birthstone, Aquarius zodiac stone and the second wedding anniversary gem, garnet provides a versatile family of affordable gems that can be enjoyed year-round.

(PX) — The royal purple amethyst has one of the most interesting histories of any gemstone. Ever since mankind first discovered amethyst around 3000 B.C., this accessible gemstone has been believed to possess a wide variety of amuletic qualities and properties. The ancient Egyptians believed amethyst could keep a person from being poisoned. In medieval times, amethyst often was put under one’s pillow to cure insomnia and bring pleasant dreams. Medieval churchmen used amethyst rings and jewels to promote divine revelations and wisdom, since amethyst was considered a symbol of Christian love and sacrifice. Amethyst also was said to enhance courage and creativity, promote intuition, psychic development and even self-esteem, deflect anger, and protect the wearer against evil. Through the ages, this lovely purple member of the quartz family has been used for everything from love charms to symbols of royalty. Yet, for all its noble traditions, amethyst is a surprisingly affordable gem. “Though the most prized colors of amethyst are still relatively rare, especially in larger sizes, there are plenty of equally beautiful amethysts available in smaller sizes and lighter purples that are affordable enough for any budget,” explains Lynn Ramsey, president of the Jewelry Information Center. Indeed, amethyst can be found in colors ranging from a pastel lavender to a dark purple that is almost black. The darkest amethysts occasionally are heat-treated to lighten their color, but light to medium purples usually are left in their natural colors. “Amethysts that are heat-treated retain their color remarkably well, but it’s still wise to keep any amethysts away from strong heat and steam cleaning,” advises Douglas K. Hucker, executive director of the American Gem Trade Association. Heat-treating is a stable and accepted process, which has been used by the jewelry industry for thousands of years, says Hucker. However, when buying any colored gemstone, ask if the stone is of natural origin or if it has been treated in any way to enhance its beauty. One of the most prized colors of amethyst is a deep, pure purple with flashes of red fire that used to be called “Siberian amethyst” after

Used throughout the ages, amethyst is beautiful, durable and very affordable. Designer Barbara Westwood used a 10carat cushion-shaped amethyst in this 18K yellow gold ring. the Siberian deposits from which this particular color came. Deposits in Uruguay and Africa have made the darker colors of amethyst more available, but most amethyst used for jewelry is in the medium-purple range generally associated with the gem. Occasionally, amethyst in milky pastel colors or layered with white quartz is used in jewelry or carved into sculptures. Amethyst can be found in sizes ranging from very tiny accent stones to finely polished gems of more than 1,000 carats, the latter found mostly in private collections and museums. Gems for jewelry are usually between half a carat, popular for earrings, and 10 carats most often seen as the center stone in rings pendants and bracelets. Even 20- to 40-carat amethysts in the medium to lighter colors are still affordable enough for fine jewelry. Many jewelry designers and gem carvers like to use amethyst because it is easy to cut and polishes so beautifully. Award-winning American gem carvers like Steve Walters of Ramona, CA, and Michael Dyber of Rumsay NH, create magnificent free-form gems designed for jewelry and even larger sculptures, because amethyst is so easy to obtain in large sizes and a wide variety of pleasing colors. Traditionally associated with royalty and luxury, amethyst has become the February birthstone in this century. Amethyst is tough and durable, wears well, and gives modern men and women the look of royalty at very affordable prices.

Heart Health Managing High Blood Pressure In Winter (NAPSA)-Fall and winter months can bring busy schedules and seasonal illnesses that make it difficult to manage high blood pressure (HBP). The good news is there are simple, practical steps you can take to manage the condition yearround and enhance your health. By managing your blood pressure, you can lower your risk of heart attack, heart failure, stroke, peripheral artery disease and kidney disease. Here are 10 tips from the American Heart Association to assist you in maintaining a healthy blood pressure level. 1. Stay informed. It’s estimated that nearly 20 percent of those with HBP are unaware of their condition. This symptomless disease could leave you with substantial health problems. If you don’t know if you have it, see a health care professional to be tested. 2. Take your prescriptions. If you are on prescription medication for high blood pressure, take it regularly and consult your health care provider before taking any over-thecounter medications or supplements. Use a labeled pillbox to help you keep track of your medicines during the busy fall and winter months. 3. Eat a healthy diet. Aim to eat a diet that’s rich in fruits, vegetables, whole-grain and high-fiber foods, and fat-free and low-fat dairy products, and reduce sugar and sodium. If your holiday meal traditions aren’t as healthy as you’d like, modify ingredients or add a healthy new dish to the menu. 4. Get 30 minutes of physical activity most days of the week. Exercise not only helps control your blood pressure, it also helps you manage your weight, strengthen your heart

and manage stress. When the temperature drops, find safe, indoor places to exercise. 5. Maintain a healthy weight. If you are overweight, a little weight loss can result in a lot of health gains. Even a small weight loss-10 pounds-can help to reduce blood pressure. 6. Avoid sudden exertion. People who are outdoors in cold weather should avoid sudden exertion, like lifting a heavy shovel full of snow. Even walking through heavy, wet snow or snowdrifts can strain a person’s heart. 7. Avoid tobacco smoke. Smoking cigarettes increases blood pressure, decreases exercise tolerance and increases the tendency for blood to clot. Make quitting a resolution for the holidays-and stick with it! 8. Stay well. Some illnesses, like influenza, pose added risks for people with heart disease. Wash your hands regularly, and make sure your doctor knows about any medicines or supplements you’re taking in order to make the best treatment decisions. Patients with heart disease should receive the flu vaccine. 9. Read labels on cold medicines. Winter colds may have you reaching for remedies at the drugstore. You should always read the labels on over-the-counter (OTC) medications, especially if you have blood pressure greater than 120/80 mmHg. People with high blood pressure should be aware that decongestants may raise blood pressure or interfere with the effectiveness of some prescribed blood pressure medications. Check the sodium content, too. Some OTC medicines contain more than 1,500 mg-a whole day’s allowance. 10. If you drink, limit alcohol. Men should limit alcohol to no more than two drinks per day and

women to one drink per day. Drinking too much alcohol can raise your blood pressure. Your doctor may advise you to reduce the amount of alcohol you drink. Learn more online at www.heart.org/HBP. Merck Consumer Care, maker of Coricidin(r) HBP, is a sponsor of the American Heart Association’s High Blood Pressure website.

ARIES – Mar 21/Apr 20

Now may be the time to try something new, Aries. You are not one to shy away from anything, but right now you're a bit apprehensive about things. Take a leap of faith.

Aries, enjoy some well-deserved time off. Life has taken on a hectic pace of late, but some much-needed time to rest, relax and recharge has finally arrived.

Aries, though you are eager to plow through your to-do list, certain plans may have to be postponed due to circumstances beyond your control. Go with the flow.

Aries, your tendency to say what you feel can come across as being impolite. Many, however, appreciate your honesty and unwillingness to mince words.

TAURUS – April 21/May 21

Taurus, many people look to you as a leader, and they are wise to do so. You are especially trustworthy, and you will be asked to solve a few problems this week.

GEMINI – May 22/Jun 21

Gemini, there won't be much time to enjoy recreational activities this week, so you may have to find a new way to let loose. Rest assured there will be more time for fun down the road.

CANCER – June 22/Jul 22

Cancer, a new opportunity comes your way but you're not quite sure if you're ready for such drastic changes. Take your time before making a final decision.

LEO – July 23/August 23

Leo, no matter how hard you try, some people just can't see things from your point of view. Don't take this personally, as everyone is entitled to their own opinions.

VIRGO – Aug 24/Sept 22

Virgo, sometimes it seems like you have all of the answers, while at other times, you might not know how to approach a situation. Take some time to analyze your approach.

LIBRA – Sept 23/Oct 23

Feeling homesick, Libra? If so, make some post-holiday plans to visit with friends or family you didn't get a chance to see during the holidays. Enjoy this time spent with loved ones.

SCORPIO – Oct 24/Nov 22

Scorpio, you like to stay busy. But you sometimes feel overwhelmed with all that you have to do. Stop biting off more than you can chew and take things one task at a time.

SAGITTARIUS – Nov 23/Dec 21

Sagittarius, now is a good time to make resolutions and reconnect with distant friends. It is good to rekindle relationships and commit to spending more time with friends and family.

CAPRICORN – Dec 22/Jan 20

TAURUS – April 21/May 21 Taurus, hidden feelings come to the surface, and this will prove a pleasant surprise. Let things play out this week, and you will get some peace.

GEMINI – May 22/Jun 21 Gemini, your friends are up to something and they want it to remain a surprise. Keep your distance, and don't let your curiosity get the better of you.

CANCER – June 22/Jul 22 A temporary situation at work may alter your plans for a few days, Cancer. But don't let changes stop you from scheduling some down time with your friends.

LEO – July 23/August 23 Leo, think things through before swinging into action. Run your ideas by someone close, and consider all of your options. This will ensure you make the best decision.

VIRGO – Aug 24/Sept 22 Your confidence about the future is a byproduct of the past, Virgo. You have learned from past mistakes and are ready to forge ahead and turn your hard work into results.

LIBRA – Sept 23/Oct 23 Libra, now is the time to address some relationship issues that you have been avoiding. Deal with them in a straightforward way, and you will glad you did.

SCORPIO – Oct 24/Nov 22

Gemini, attention to detail this week will prevent delays down the road. Keep this mind when tending to personal as well as professional matters.

CANCER – June 22/Jul 22 You may find your mind wandering this week, Cancer. You cannot seem to focus on the tasks at hand, but work hard to limit distractions and get your work done.

LEO – July 23/August 23 Leo, respect a loved one's decision to keep a certain matter private. There's not much you can do other than offer your support and respect.

VIRGO – Aug 24/Sept 22 Virgo, carefully schedule your time this week. You cannot afford to get behind in work or miss any important appointments. Stay focused and leave some time free for the unexpected.

LIBRA – Sept 23/Oct 23 Libra, you are drawn to creative endeavors these days and have less patience for tasks that are not nearly as fun. Find a healthy balance between the two.

SAGITTARIUS – Nov 23/Dec 21

Sagittarius, while you may be anxious about the future, make sure you enjoy the here and now and not wish the present away too soon. New friends come into your life.

CAPRICORN – Dec 22/Jan 20

Aquarius, although you have many friends, you recently have only spent time with a select few. This week is a great time to reach out to those friends you haven't seen in awhile.

Aquarius, do your best to hold up your end of a bargain with a loved one. If you are struggling, simply ask for more time or help to ensure that everyone comes out a winner.

Your competitive juices will be flowing this week, Pisces. Enjoy the competitive atmosphere but don't take things too far.

GEMINI – May 22/Jun 21

SCORPIO – Oct 24/Nov 22

Capricorn, react swiftly to stressful situations, but do so with a clear head and conscience. Once a situation has been resolved, take some time to recharge your batteries.

PISCES – Feb 19/Mar20

Taurus, uncover the source of a disagreement with a friend and try to come to a resolution before the disagreement escalates. Handling things promptly will pay off.

A demanding schedule makes it impossible for you to be bored this week, Scorpio. However, if you desire a little time to decompress, you can fit it into your schedule.

After time away for the holidays, getting back into a routine can be challenging, Capricorn. But you like to stick to a schedule, and getting back on track is the way to do it.

AQUARIUS – Jan 21/Feb 18

TAURUS – April 21/May 21

AQUARIUS – Jan 21/Feb 18

PISCES – Feb 19/Mar20 Pisces, your foremost priority is to further your position at work. Rely on your strong work ethic and attention to detail.

Scorpio, expect to serve as a mediator for your loved ones this week. The issue that arises is relatively small, but your calm demeanor and cool head will be needed. Sagittarius, you may be floundering a little in the romance department this week. Stick to what your intuition is telling you, and you will come out just fine.

CAPRICORN – Dec 22/Jan 20 Capricorn, you are focused on your work, but distractions beyond your control figure to prove frustrating. Try to remain as patient as possible, and everything will work itself out.

AQUARIUS – Jan 21/Feb 18 Aquarius, take a breather and stop to give some careful thought to your recent experiences and your expectations going forward. You will benefit from this reflection in the long run.

PISCES – Feb 19/Mar20 Pisces, expect some valuable insight on your future to arrive in the next few days. It won't be difficult to set plans in motion.

FOR ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY

TAURUS – April 21/May 21

A loved one needs some help, Taurus. This week you will have to figure out a way to assist this person and still tend to your own pressing affairs.

GEMINI – May 22/Jun 21

Gemini, focus your energy on someone important. This may be a friend, family member or even a romantic partner. Brush up on your relationship skills in the meantime.

CANCER – June 22/Jul 22

You have a natural charm that immediately puts others at ease, Cancer. If you are wooing a client, they will be putty in your hands. Just open your mouth, and you will win them over.

LEO – July 23/August 23

Leo, your stubbornness comes into play this week, and it could cause a rift with friends or colleagues. Try to see their point of view, and put off any serious disputes for another time.

VIRGO – Aug 24/Sept 22

Virgo, spend a little time this week plotting your next getaway. You tend to be happiest when you're on the move and exploring. Everyone needs an escape now and then.

LIBRA – Sept 23/Oct 23

Enjoy some local culture this week, Libra. Take in a concert, an art show or a theater performance. Just enjoy anything that will educate and entertain at the same time.

SCORPIO – Oct 24/Nov 22

Scorpio, you may find that someone you thought was weak is much stronger than they appeared. This person may not need as much of your assistance as you initally thought.

SAGITTARIUS – Nov 23/Dec 21

Sagittarius, analyze any problems you may have by breaking them down into smaller tasks. Then you can tackle one thing at a time and come to a happy resolution.

CAPRICORN – Dec 22/Jan 20

Capricorn, your children or the youngsters in your life will be the center of your universe this week. Make the most of this time and enjoy kids' carefree natures.

AQUARIUS – Jan 21/Feb 18

This week may be a little boring, Aquarius. Make the most of your down time, as you could use a few slow days to recharge your batteries and plan your next move.

PISCES – Feb 19/Mar20

You are bubbling with energy, Pisces. Make the most of this energy by exercising, partying or taking a day trip.
