U.S. Jewelers Confident Despite Rising Fuel Prices.
Figures released today by the U.S. Commerce Department show total retail sales for September increased from a year ago, despite rising fuel prices and the economic impacts of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita.
Sales of goods, which include non-general merchandise categories such as autos, gasoline stations and restaurants, rose 0.2 percent seasonally adjusted from August and increased 7.1 percent unadjusted year-over-year.
According to the National Retail Federation (NRF), retail industry sales for September, excluding automobiles, gas stations, and restaurants, rose 7 percent unadjusted over last year and increased 0.8 percent seasonally adjusted from August. The gains, which led third quarter sales to rise 6.4 percent over 2004, were stronger than NRF had forecast.
With the approach of the all important Holiday Shopping season, U.S. Jewelers are confident of a strong season, notwithstanding the increase in fuel prices and the rising prices of Gold, Platinum, and Silver.

This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like 'Mixview' that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you're listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of "neighbors" will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune "Social" is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.

For what its worth, the layout is absolutely remarkable. You know the best way to balance writing and images/videos. Nevertheless, I cant get over how little you in fact bring to light here. I feel that everyones said the same thing that youve said over and over once again. Dont you feel its time for something far more?

The next time I read a blog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as considerably as this one. I mean, I know it was my choice to read, but I really thought youd have some thing fascinating to say. All I hear is really a bunch of whining about some thing that you simply could fix in the event you werent too busy searching for attention.

I can't WAIT to read far more of this. I mean, you just know so significantly about this. So considerably of it Ive in no way even thought of. You positive did put a brand new twist on some thing that Ive heard so considerably about. I dont believe Ive in fact read anything that does this subject as good justice as you just did.

Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It's very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.
