Gifts For Mom - 2009

Dancing To The Music in My Head by Sanjaya Malakar - Great songs on CD. India, Pop, kind of sassy mixed tunes, especially songs #1 and #3. Sanjaya is a hero to many for doing what others have been scared to do...and what some couldn't even attempt (but think they can). If we all had to endure even 24 hours, much less what must seem like endless time of the sheer stupidity of nay-sayers and could still come out with a smile and our passion for singing (and doing it ever so well), intact, as Sanjaya has managed to do, the world would be a much healthier and happier place. TOTALLY AWESOME!

Why Positive Thinkers Have The Power: How to Use the Powerful Three-Word Motto to Achieve Greater Peace of Mind by, Ken Bossone - For ten years Ken Bossone, president of the World Positive Thinkers club, has been researching and writing about what the main ingredient is that all winners possess. Ken wanted to find out and write about what drove winners on in the face of defeat and adversity. Was it what they did or thought? Was it goals? Having goals is nothing new. Man has achieved goals since the beginning of time. Was it hard work? Everyone knows you must work hard to achieve goals. After all, the only thing that sits its way to success is a hen. Was it intelligence? Many brilliant people wind up on skid row, as Ken has interviewed them there. Was it wealth? Many wealthy people are unhappy and wind up committing suicide. And so the search went on. Then one night Ken watched a middleweight championship boxing match between Sugar Ray Leonard and his opponent, and after hearing the words Leonard's opponent uttered Ken realized the words were the key to the secret. It hit Ken like a lightning bolt.

The Frederica Collection is inspired by an eclectic mix of 18th century flourish and French Art Nouveau. "Frederica", a fictional courtesan, lived well and dressed the part. Mixing elements of haute couture and estate jewels exudes high society discretion juxtaposed with the decadance of Paris after dark. Moonstone, crystal, topaz, cubic zirconia, pearl, brass, and sterling silver are the components mixed and manipulated to create a line that consists of necklaces, earrings, pins, and bracelets. The breadth of the collection lies in its supreme femininity and subtlety, accentuating the woman, not the accessory. Earrings range in size from chandelier proportion to a simple stud. The neckline can be adorned with a delicate deco star or dripping with Hollywood sparkle. The choice is yours with Frederica and Lee Angel.
