Designed and crafted in Japan, the Debutante necklace - presented for the first time at the Queen Charlotte's Ball at the Savoy Hotel in September last year - is now available to purchase online from Mikimoto's UK website.
The Mikimoto Debutante Feather and Pearl necklace conveys the innocent and ethereal quality of the Debutante featuring an18k White gold feather detachable clasp with diamonds on a classic strand of the finest Akoya pearls with a pave diamond ball.

True Monetary Value of iPhones and Smartphones is Deceptively High
2012-07-12
In a world in which people have become entirely dependant on their iPhones and Smartphones for personal and professional use, it goes hand in hand that they take their essential gadgetry for granted. It is fair to suggest that most users would feel like they had lost limbs if their iPhones or Smartphones became damaged, were lost, or stolen; especially those that have not had their mobile phones insured. It is often an acknowledgement of their gadget dependency, coupled with the consequent urgency for repairs or replacements should the unexpected happen, that prompts users ...
Communities Fining People for Distracted Walking
2012-07-12
How many people have tripped or had other minor accidents because they were engrossed in their cellphones?
For example, a 45-year-old woman recently fell into Lake Michigan when she walked off a pier while texting. She had to be rescued from the lake. In another example of how dangerous cellphone distraction can be, a California woman was killed after she crossed the street and ignored a red light because she was talking on her cellphone.
An Ohio State University study found that there were 1,000 emergency room visits across the nation due to pedestrian cellphone ...
Changes to Maryland Drug Laws Mean Smaller Penalties for Misdemeanor Pot Possession
2012-07-12
In October 2012, change is coming to criminal courts across the state of Maryland. That change is in the form of substantially lessened penalties for misdemeanor marijuana possession. A bill signed into law by Governor O'Malley in May will hopefully dislodge the bottleneck of cases clogging courtrooms by reducing the penalties for minor drug offenses and the way those cases are handled.
The Current Law
Maryland's current marijuana possession law is one of the toughest in the country. Possession of even a small amount of pot -- less than 10 grams (one-third of an ounce) ...
Families of Victims Get $15 Million in Florida Drunk-Driving Lawsuit
2012-07-12
As you head north from the Tampa-St. Petersburg metro area up the beautiful Florida Gulf Coast, past the pristine Clearwater beaches and Tarpon Springs, you come to the city of Hudson, currently in its evolution from Southern historical roots and rural farmland, to modern planned communities.
Christmas Day 2007 in Hudson turned into a nightmare. Lives were lost and the lives of surviving family members shattered when David Belniak drove his pickup at an estimated 86 mph on busy north-south artery U.S. Highway 19 into a stopped Chevrolet Tahoe with four passengers.

FMCSA Proposes HOS Clarification for Oilfield Drivers
2012-07-12
The boom of the oil industry in recent years has been a mixed blessing. On one hand, it has brought employment opportunities for many unskilled workers--some jobs paying up to $2,000 per week--and increased tax revenues for local coffers.
On the other hand, however, this prosperity has come at a price. Unfortunately, it has increased the number of oil field service trucks on the road and put workers in danger.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), between 2003 and 2008, 648 oilfield workers were killed and nearly a third of the fatalities ...
Report Finds Hundreds of Nursing Homes Repeatedly Receive Low Ratings
2012-07-12
Choosing a nursing home for a vulnerable or elderly loved one can be very difficult. Many families struggle with the decision to use a facility in the first place, and are then disheartened by media reports of nursing home abuse and neglect.
No one wants to discover that their loved ones were placed in a facility that has dirty equipment and bed linens, employs unlicensed caregivers or mistreats its residents. Unfortunately, a recent USA Today report states that over 600 of the nation's working nursing homes fit this description.
The report focuses on ratings issued ...
Protecting the Whistleblower
2012-07-12
In a high profile case, Japanese camera maker Olympus recently settled a whistleblower claim brought in British employment court by its former CEO Michael Woodford, its first foreign CEO, for his wrongful dismissal from the company. Woodford, who lives in England, was abruptly fired in October 2011 by Olympus a couple of weeks into his tenure after he raised questions about corruption in the company.
In June 2012, the corporate board approved a settlement worth more than $15 million. Woodford's whistle blowing ultimately exposed $1.7 billion in accounting irregularities ...
