Chrysoprase is one of the rarest and most valuable forms of chalcedony, which is a cryptocrystalline variety of quartz. ...

It is coloured green by traces of nickel and its name derives from the Greek words chrysos, meaning gold, and prasos, meaning leek. In its finest form, this bright green ornamental gemstone has a glowing, ethereal quality. Chrysoprase possesses a soft translucence similar to an opal and an intense colour rivalling that of imperial Burmese jade; however, don’t be fooled, as it is a distinctly different mineral with unique properties.

  Blogging is a good way to get a personal interest in front of others to enjoy or to provoke a feeling or emotion. Blogging can allow for creative expression and depending on your work ethics, can also be beautifully designed. Google Blogger and WordPress are platforms that beginners and those who are advanced can promote ideas, merchants, products, and more. Blogging should be completed with fresh original content and should be done regularly to keep your audience interested and have the desire to return to your blog or website. Try to write your content by composing in email or make a Microsoft word document that is dated with your post title so that you have a record in case a website or blog is no longer available. You want to always have your content to be able to recreate or update. You can also post via email with Blogger of WordPress with the email you have established for posting within your blog site and set emails to draft copies so that you can check for typos bef

I wrote an article on Ezinearticles about blogging as a technique to brand and gain more credibility. Today, time management is the important topic because it takes time to blog and brand. I personally have number one, started carrying a notebook everywhere I go. I can create on the go with my notebook and post it to my blog immediately with my laptop or smart phone. Saturday I am taking my notebook to Chicago with me and I will be able to create my original content while traveling. Where do I get my content? I write about what I am doing each day to achieve success. For example, the 2nd thing to create time is to combine similar activities. I went to a book fair and spent $ 5 getting a creative looking notebook to blog. I enjoyed the book fair and did something for my business. Third, just actively find the time to brand, blog, write articles, advertise, and market. Create your time by carrying a notebook, combining activities, and actively finding time.

I spent today handing out my business cards that list my blog which has a link to Fifth Avenue Collections Jewelry, which is my home based business.  While passing out my cards, I saw a vendor at Summit City in Milwaukee Wisconsin.  I spoke with the vendor because she was in a high traffic area and I wanted to know how to model/market that same idea of selling as a jewellery vendor.  I was so excited and as I was leaving the building, I bumped into a security guard who was able to give me a business card to the manager for Summit City.  I did call and left a message and I am excited about this new business network prospect.  If I was not actively promoting my busines and blog,  I would not have met the vendor which lead to a manager.  My motto is to promote, promote, promote.  I also know that original content is key to keeping my blog active.  Alot of people don't understand the importance of blogging and how it helps your business and can increase your cash flow.  I think I will
