Two Jewelry Things

[plumtreeblossom.livejournal.com]

1) This morning I found a silver ring on Francesca Street in the road, a few houses up from First Church. I presume it slipped off someone's finger. It's a Celtic design and a large size (too big even for my thumb). Might it be yours?

2) Does anyone remember Kitty Haas, the wonderful jeweler in Porter Exchange? The store is gone and she seems to have left the business, but does anybody know of a similar jeweler somewhere in the area, specifically one that deals in semi-precious stones rather than the diamond-y stuff? Kitty would have had just what I'm looking for. Any other local jewelers or jewelry makers filling the semi-precious niche these days?

Cellphone Root Service

Is there anyplace/anyone around Somerville that can root an Android Phone? My friend is on me to get my phone rooted, and sent me instructions on how to do it. But my competence for such things is less than zero. I dropped into a couple of places on Broadway, but they seemed to know a lot about jailbreaking (?), but not much about rooting.

Pet Insurance?

[misterthorn.livejournal.com]

Anyone have any experience with pet insurance providers? Or can anyone make an informed recommendation? My vet has pointed me toward VPI and Embrace, but it's hard to find good reviews of these (or anyone else) online.

Thank you!
