As white as they come

White gold is not silver. People often times refer to white gold as silver since it appear and feel like the latter. Partly it is true, since in reality white gold is an alloy of gold and another white metal usually silver or palladium.

The combination of silver or palladium eliminates the yellow gold look and creates the rather white silver appearance. But even if it is an alloy, white gold is still measured in Karats just like ordinary gold. Other white metals used to combine with gold include nickel and platinum.

Each metal used to combine with gold yield varying properties. A nickel based gold alloy, for example, creates a strong and hard metal which makes it ideal to be used for rings and pins. While, white gold-palladium alloys are relatively softer and flexible which make them great for gemstone settings.

However, the disadvantage of using white gold-nickel alloy in body jewelry is that is could cause various skin reactions since nickel is not bio-compatible. Some may have very mild reactions to the metal with only mild itchiness and skin rashes. However, these reactions might turn uglier if they lead to infections. It is therefore best to consider your body chemistry first before buying any type of body jewelry.

Nevertheless, white gold is quite popular as body jewelry. You could find white gold gemstone rings, ladies jewelry, nipple and navel rings, nose studs, earrings and tongue piercing. The reliability of the material has been proven. A lot of people compare white gold to platinum especially when both are used in body jewelry.

Platinum is better as far as jewelry is concerned since it is more abrasive resistant than any other metal available. It has a real white color unlike white gold which is actually a grey steel-like color. Platinum is heavier than gold and last longer. However, the most disadvantageous part in platinum based body jewelry is the costs. Whether you believe it or not, pure platinum costs a lot more than gold.

Actually, white gold was created exclusively for jewelry precisely to find less costly alternative for platinum. It was in the 1920s when the alloy was first manufactured for the jewelry and gem industry.

Today, the alloy is a well established material for body jewelry and has its own fashion sense and value. White gold is often used as settings for diamonds and other gemstones enhancing their appeal. Like what was mentioned earlier, white gold is also measured by means of karats. However, white gold can only be produced up to 21 karat.

Now when hear a higher karat white gold, it doesn't mean the gold is whiter. White gold is a combination of gold and other metals. The color is affected by the properties of the metals we add to gold and not the amount of gold. Basically, white gold can be either nickel-whites or palladium-whites.

The main difference of which is that nickel-white gold have a colder white color wherein the palladium whites' color is a little warmer. Also it is very hard to achieve a good nickel white unlike with palladium whites which tends to be softer thus easier to process. Because of the price of palladium, however, palladium whites are a little more expensive.

When buying white-gold, always remember that majority of white gold on the North American market are nickel-whites. The problem with nickel is that around 12-15% of people are allergic to the metal. Skin contact with nickel can cause red skin rash or irritation.

Red Hot Chilli Papper

Grief that has not even completely lost. There is still an ask why the same failure occur again. One family that we can learn is that we really will not be able to fight nature. We must be consistent with it.

Although careful calculation and prediction of the nature of this nature is already a consideration, but only, the more powerful.

Still be in memory, the planting season ago, the failure to harvest sweet corn near number 68. And now, we can only return stroke chest, when chili is expected to provide a little fun, the price slide down like a game in Niagara Fantasy.

Cost of one kilogram harvest chili only has a thousand rupiah. So, if it costs a thousand in place, whether enough money to cover the cost of land, seed, fertilizer, maintenance, and labor costs for planting?

Hmmm, it seems, thus most of the farmers in this country. Now, we feel alone.

Not jaded, brother I finally choose to offer directly to the market near the house. Fair, the behavior can be three thousand. But I must offer one by one to all the traders until all vegetables chili out of stock. And at most only one trader 15 to 30 pons only.

At home, mama behind several kilo. Once distributed to some neighbors, the rest was still much too. Be we eat every day all-round cooking chili. From fried rice, chilli, having a speech impediment, fish, squid, chicken, canned tuna the chili!

Still would like to recommend a dish that can chilli in it?

I want studied may belong to any posts with Blogger friend was legitimate-legal aja, asal plek not awake-awake .

Well, the end of years ago I duty to make any posts with the theme:
" Impressions 2007, things have been done during 2007, both the good and the bad."
But I relate very busy during the leave nearly 20an days, now that is my new . Hopefully still remaining cake batter stored in refrigerator.

I make most of their lives based on a summary chronology of time, I tried a little different.

1. Job.
This is one of the best I can in years ago. Many achievements that actually far from my reverie. Although the boss usual course, sometimes my friends also considered.
2. Love.
I spelled the with the family years ago. That is usually used once a year can family, years ago at least once a week we . Even in a week to two or three times I go home.
Of course we can not all get in the same time. When the relationship with the family the better, relationships with friends are so few. I rarely appear in the viva-ray events with my friends. But I try to keep in touch as closely as possible through the intimate telephone and.
Couples? Aja want to know ...
3. Money.
I get a little practice with the financial savings put aside. I'm not much, but at least the desire to continue shopping can be a little.
The end of this year I failed in business. Purpose careful not to get profit with investing with friends in the field of agriculture (planting chilli and watermelon), but total failure. Isn'T fortunately, back investment.

Love Or Property

Even though the same work, the income received is greater than the Maya who is capable of Ali, spouse. Indeed, there is no certainty, and discussion of a quite intense, both of them concerning the future. That they share each other know that they love each other.

Hare gene, it begituan still afraid? Perhaps it is the first time you have in mind. Or: Nggak problem is, women more advanced!

But there are many problems arise, the most obvious example is most of the artists that we divorce, when her husband is considered not able to "lead" economic family. Apart from the possibility of other problems outside of it. Because the family economic problems that can present more complex again.
