Help with identification of ring?
Okay, so I was given a family heirloom, which is a ring, with 12 tiny clear stones that look like diamonds dotted all round the circumference. The middle band of the ring is a yellow-tinged silver, and has the 12 clear stones dotted around it, with this pattern between each stone: >||<
Imagine the > is filled in. The designs either side of the middle band are quite hard to explain, rich gold in colour - it is 2 zigzags, when one zigzag dips down the other raises up. The middle band takes up pretty much all the ring, with the side zigzags being very small in width. I have taken 2 clear photos of this ring from different angles, and here they are:
Hallmarks: 'FG', no border, just FG in capital letters. A hallmark too small for me to see inside of, it kind of looks like a christmas cracker with one end missing, a bit like this but much more cracker-shaped <===
And then two squares, clearly 2 seperate squares but very close to each other, almost like a sideways hourglass but square shape (twisted together in the middle, kinda)
Please can somebody help me identify what this ring is, what time period is it from (ie 1950s etc.), how much it is worth and what the hallmarks mean etc. etc.
Thanks for the help!

I have tried taking a picture of this ring, but as I do not have a camera I was forced to use my phone, which produces a very very blurry image, so although you can't see specific features, you get a general feel of what it's like:
Hallmarks/stamps/whatever they're called: 'FG', no border, no nothing, just FG in capital letters. A hallmark too small for me to see inside of, it kind of looks like a christmas cracker with one end missing, a bit like this but much more cracker-shaped <===

1 AnswerLyrics10 years agoBig black spider under bed, I have arachnophobia?
I have a very small room, and my single bed takes up around half of it... I also have a lot of stuff like bags and boxes under my bed, and I was on the floor poking around them when a (in my opinion) huge black spider with skinny, jointed legs but a large abdomen and head, came crawling lightning fast across the carpet under my bed. Having a phobia of spiders, I screamed, ran and shut the door behind me. I think it might be a male house spider, but I'm not sure. I read somewhere that female spiders have fatter legs, but this one's legs were not too thin and not too fat.... What should I do???????? By the way, I am NOT going back in there...

1 AnswerOther - Internet10 years agoGateway Laptop HDMI Output doesn't seem to work?
I have a Gateway MD2614u, which I have very recently installed Windows Vista SP2 onto. It came with pretty much nothing, and I had to install the WLAN driver onto it via a USB. I also have a BENQ w500 projector. Before I performed a clean install of Windows Vista (Home Premium, 32 bit), the HDMI cable was connected from my laptop to the projector and it worked fine. When I plug it in now, it just says 'HDMI - No Signal'. Also the speaker system that plugs into a headphone socket thing won't pick that up either. I tried with another laptop and it all works perfectly - what should I do? Please note I only yesterday downloaded the new OS
2 AnswersLaptops & Notebooks10 years agoEvery time I plug my Gateway laptop into power, the blue screen of death comes up after a few minutes?
I have a Gateway laptop with Windows Vista installed, and the laptop is fine when the power is not plugged in (running off battery) except for crashes here and there. I regularly use a projector plus a HDMI cable with the laptop, but if I plug in power a blue screen comes up with something about a crash dump. I am not very good with computers, and sometimes it can take a few minutes, but the blue screen is pretty much guaranteed... Please can someone help me?

1 AnswerMovies1 decade agoI have just chipped my tooth (I live in UK)?
Foam was coming out of my beer bottle really fast so I ducked down to put my mouth over it and chipped my front tooth. It feels like a lot of the back bit of it has gone too, but the bit that chipped off looks relatively small (about a quarter of the size). I have kept the chip and I (please don't laugh :/) put it on ice just in case. Can the dentist glue it on or something? If not how much is it to get a replacement bit of tooth? I am 15 by the way...
Thanks

2 AnswersWords & Wordplay1 decade agoWake Induced Lucid Dream help?
(a.k.a WILD) I have learned all about Lucid Dreaming (LD) and WILD. I have tried twice doing WILD and every time I get a clear focus on the 'dream' it fades away. Both these times I was waiting for half an hour, following the usual procedure. I have kept a dream journal since yesterday, and recorded down a dream as soon as I woke up (it definitely was not an LD). Should I give up WILD and just go for the pot luck LD while I sleep? And yes I do make reality checks in the day :)
