Glamorinky Friday #15

In celebration of Black Friday your task for the 15th Glamorinky game is to find out what the black stone beads above are called. I have been working with different equipment lately and the photo is lacking - what you can't see is that each bead has a naturally occurring 4-rayed star glowing on its surface. Since my picture stinks I made it so this week's game isn't photo-dependent. Here's the deal: the answer has three words, and I mention two of them in this paragraph. The third word you need to Google your way to the answer is also in this paragraph.

Players have from Friday November 24, 2006 until midnight Eastern Standard Time on Sunday November 26, 2006 to participate by clicking on the word "comment" at the bottom of this post. Just like last week, I am going to keep all of the answers hidden over the weekend, then publish them once the game is over. To confirm your answer has been accepted look at the top of the page after you click "submit" - if you have successfully posted it will read, "Your comment has been saved and will be visible after blog owner approval".

On Monday November 27th I will draw a name to receive a prize made with one or more of the beads shown above. I do not notify winners, you must come back to this blog to see if you won.
