Facial rosacea, acne affecting the nose.   What Is Rosacea? Rosacea is a skin condition that is characterized by facial redness. It is chronic; hence treatment should be started early. It is a harmless skin condition unless it affects the eyes. In some cases, the condition can have the appearance of pimples. The condition mainly affects Caucasians of Western European descent, but it can affect people of other ethnicities as well. It is common in both sexes and is more prevalent in adults in their 30s to 60s. It mainly starts as erythema on the central face but can also affect the scalp, ears, neck, and chest. Other symptoms include bloodshot, watery eyes, spider-like blood vessels, acne-like skin sores, burning or stinging face, dilation of the superficial facial blood vessels, and a red, lobulated nose in extre...

A dry washer is one of the most important tools for gold prospecting in desert regions, and learning how to set one up correctly can dramatically improve recovery rates. In places like Arizona and Southern California, where water is scarce and the ground stays dry for most of the year, a dry washer allows prospectors to process material efficiently without relying on traditional sluices or wet recovery systems. Although the machine looks simple, its performance depends on careful preparation, proper adjustment, and steady operation. Understanding how airflow, vibration, and material moisture interact is the foundation of successful dry washing.   Setting up a dry washer begins with choosing the right location. Gold settles in specific patterns, and a prospector must read the terrain to find the pay layer. Washes, benches, and old channel paths often hold the best material. Once a productive spot is identified, the dry washer should be placed on level ground so the riffle tray ...

  Updated on December 15, 2024 I've been gold prospecting for 13 years, mainly in the Bradshaw Mountains in Yavapai County, Arizona, where I found over 8 grams of placer. Our finds from gem mining in Temecula Temecula or Bust On vacation to California by way of Temecula in 2010, it was hard to believe that only minutes away lay an area with green rolling hills and citrus groves. Winding dirt roads make their way through nearby agricultural areas, but one will take you to a spot where there are a number of gem mines, nearly all of which are no longer working. But one is still being worked on and is the site of a wonderful activity for vacationers and locals alike. It is the Oceanview Mine of Pala, California. The mine produces matrix specimens, a term referring to the type of gems produced. Among the gems are tourmaline (pink, green, watermelon), aquamarine, citrine, morganite, schorl, and more I don't know the names of. In addition to producing these fine gems, the Oceanview Mi...

  Chief economists across major global institutions are signaling a cautiously stable outlook for the world economy, but beneath that surface they see a growing set of financial pressures tied to public debt, long‑term yields, and the explosive expansion of artificial intelligence. Their latest assessments suggest that AI’s rapid build‑out—fueled heavily by debt markets—is beginning to reshape credit conditions, influence sovereign yields, and introduce new vulnerabilities that policymakers cannot ignore. The World Economic Forum’s September 2026 Chief Economists’ Outlook captures this tension clearly. While headline growth expectations have steadied, economists warn that public debt remains elevated and monetary policy expectations are diverging across regions. At the same time, technology investment has surged to historic levels, with AI companies absorbing an outsized share of both venture capital and investment‑grade corporate debt. Over the past year, roughly two‑thirds of U.S...
