About Girls Purity Rings

About 5 years ago, a company named Tungsten Jewelry Designs designed a set of girl purity rings that would forever change the tungsten carbide  jewelry industry. They created ceramic rings called true love waits rings and they have been selling like crazy. Many people think of these as simple girls purity rings but we’ve even seen a huge trend towards guys purity rings. It’s really crazy if you think about how quickly a market can come and go, but purity rings have stayed and are still going strong.

Over the last 15 years, there’s a ceramic jewelry trend that has taken the nation by storm. This new trend is called purity rings. For many years, we’ve seen different jewelry fads come and go. It’s very typically in the jewelry industry to have to deal with these changing trends that consumers constantly dictate. One of the most surprising trends of them all have been the success of websites that sell purity rings. Typical websites in today’s growing internet market don’t sell purity rings, but have put a lot more focus in selling other types of jewelry. Within that timeframe, we’ve learned that girls purity rings have become very popular among internet retailers. We’re not really sure exactly how the trend started, but there are a few ideas floating around on blogs.

I conducted interviews with many different websites that wholesale and retails tungsten purity rings and have learned that their number one selling rings are the purity rings for girls. It’s really great to see a piece of jewelry selling so well in today’s tough economy. The owners of these websites were very nice to me and presented me with great sales figures that showed the growing trend of purity rings. One interesting aspect about their business is that they all cater towards a special ministry and without those ministries they wouldn’t exist. Most of the owners I spoke with are very happy with the growth and would love for it to continue to grow so they can spread their ministry.

Royal matrimonial ceremony: The Crown and the Ring - a command performance

In a series of extracts from the new book The wedding Ring and the Crown, we look back at some great royal weddings of the past, and wait in hope  that of Prince William and Kate Middleton.
The concept of a public royal wedding is an ancient one but, until recent times, the most the public could expect to see was a bridal procession. A public wedding usually meant a court wedding following by feasting, but many royal nuptials were private, low-key affairs. All that changed with the advent of the camera, newsreels and television. The media opportunities of the 20th century not only enabled people to witness the ceremony but saw the royal wedding become the embodiment – for better or worse – of the national fairy story.promise rings

The actual power of the monarchy might have declined, but its emblematic significance has never been more apparent. A Royal family event has come to feel like an event in our own family. Now, we all expect to be guests at a royal wedding.-online tungsten jewelry stores

There is an element of bread and circuses in this – give the public a good show and it will take their minds off the ills of society – but it is certainly a boost to tourism and trade. Few other events have such power to unite us as a nation or to give us a sense of being part of a wider family. As Walter Bagehot famously wrote: 'A princely marriage is the brilliant edition of a universal fact, and as such rivets mankind.’ Now The History Girls – the acclaimed historical biographers and academics, Alison Weir, Kate Williams, Sarah Gristwood and Tracy Boorman – have brought royal weddings to life in words and pictures, from 1066 to today. Now, in three exclusive extracts from The Ring and the Crown, the authors consider two 'fairytale’ weddings, more than 30 years apart, that had very different outcomes and explain why the hard lessons learnt will influence Prince William and Kate Middleton’s life together.

Burma earthquake hits faded drug area,65 pepole was killed

Tungsten rings whosale and retails attention:

Burma earthquake caused buildings to sway hundreds of miles away. The economic impact of the Burma earthquake is limited as Golden Triangle opium production has declined.

The earthquake that struck Burma Thursday night hit one of its more remote regions, once known as the world's premier producer of opium and its derivative, heroin.(episode:black tungsten rings)
The extent of damage within the tightly controlled country, officially called Myanmar, was hard to assess. It's economic impact will be limited because aside from agriculture and limited tourism, the only other industry of note in the so-called Golden Triangle is opium, and that has been in decline for more than a decade.

Homes and at least one bridge were damaged in several Burmese villages along the borders with Thailand and Laos, according to the Associated Press, which quoted residents' reports. Residents in neighboring Vietnam and Thailand also felt the tremors as far away as Hanoi and Bangkok. One woman in northern Thailand died after a brick wall fell on her.

The epicenter of the Burma earthquake occurred in its easternmost and largest province, Shan, which borders Thailand, Laos, and China. It was centered between Tachileik (a Burmese on the border with Thailand) and Kyaing Tong, a center of tourism for the small number of foreign tourists who visit the country each year.

Aside from tourism and agriculture, the rural region inside one of Asia's poorest countries does not boast much industry. Its biggest claim to fame is the Golden Triangle, which once produced the bulk of the world's opium and heroin but has since ceded that dubious distinction.

"When it comes to heroin, Burma has been much reduced in recent years," says Ethan Nadelmann, executive director of the Drug Policy Alliance, a drug policy advocacy organization based in New York. "It has really been displaced by Afghanistan."

What remains of the drug industry serves Asia, he says. Illegal though it may be, the industry would feel the same effect as legitimate manufacturers would. Sales would be interrupted if Burma's already poor roads were damaged. Damage to the drug refineries could also affect production.(episode:wholesale tungsten carbide jewelry)

In recent years, China has intervened by sponsoring large-scale crop-substitution programs, especially large rubber plantations. No word yet on how they fared in the quake and the two aftershocks.
50 killed in Burma earthquake

The 6.8 magnitude earthquake that hit Burma yesterday has killed 50 people and injured 40, with the death toll expected to rise slightly, a local administration official said today.(episode:tungsten rings)

"Total death toll has now reached nearly 50 and the number of the injured is about 40 while over 100 buildings were destroyed," he said.

The quake was centred 111 km north of the Thai town of Chiang Rai. One person was confirmed dead in Thailand.

The theft occurred sometime between 10 p.m. on March 2 and 8 a.m. on March 3, according to Malibu/Lost Hills Sheriff’s deputies.

The victim told authorities that she waited two weeks to report the theft because she was hoping the ring would turn up in the course of her search.

The victim said she had a habit of placing the tungsten ring on top of the chest of drawers in the closet of her bedroom every night.

There was no one else that had access to her bedroom, she added.

There was no sign of any forced entry, according to deputies.

Oh~NY Times quartet tell of ordeal during detention in Libya

Tungstenringsmall.com attention:
The four New York Times journalists released after six days in detention in Libya have been telling of their ordeal.

Reporter Anthony Shadid, who is the paper's Beirut bureau chief, wrote a joint piece for his newspaper along with photographers Lynsey Addario and Tyler Hicks, and videographer Stephen Farrell.(episode:orange tungsten ring for girls)

After being captured by forces loyal to Colonel Gaddafi at a checkpoint in Ajdabiya they were beaten and their hands and legs were bound.

Addario was punched in the face, Farrell and Hicks were hit, and Shadid was headbutted. It was the beginning of regular beatings.

Sometimes they were treated well until they were handed over to a rougher group. Hicks was threatened with beheading. Then they were blindfolded and driven to Gaddafi's home town of Surt.

"The next afternoon," they wrote, "was perhaps the worst beating. As we stood on the tarmac in Surt, waiting for a military plane to Tripoli, Tyler was slapped and punched, and Anthony was hit with the butt of a gun to the head. We were blindfolded and bound another time with plastic handcuffs, and Lynsey was groped again."(episode:tungsten carbide ring for men)

They were flown to Tripoli and could hear people arguing about their fate. They spent four days in relatively benign circumstances before being released into the han ds of Turkish diplomats.

In a separate article, Addario told of being continually sexually assaulted while in captivity. Soon after the four were detained, one man grabbed her breasts, "the beginning of a pattern of disturbing behaviour."

She said: "There was a lot of groping. Every man who came in contact with us basically felt every inch of my body short of what was under my clothes."

Addario, a Pulitzer prize-winner, told of an occasion when a man caressed her head in a sick, tender way while saying: "You're going to die tonight. You're going to die tonight".
