Costume Jewelry Rings

Jewelry can complete any look – whether it be a costume for a party you are attending or an outfit you are wearing at work. Most people these days can now accessorize as much as they want to because they can buy wholesale costume jewelry. Fashion jewelry comes complete with necklaces, headpieces, earrings, bracelets and costume jewelry rings. Most have cubic zirconia studs and rhinestone jewelry in replacement of diamonds.

Most people might prefer buying earrings and necklaces but rings, specifically cocktail rings, are coming back as a fashion trend.

 

Cocktail rings are large rings that are designed to make a big statement due to their dramatic designs.

1. Go for a mix of different gems and colors when picking out designs for the cocktail rings.

2. Use multiple textures and metals. The goal of a cocktail ring is to let it stand out.

3. The best way to shop for cocktail rings is to go large.

4. Remember that cocktail rings aren’t designed to be elegant or simple accessories which will blend into the outfit you are wearing. On the contrary, cocktail rings are intended to be bold, large and scream out for the attention of those around you.

Here is a classic example:

How To Care for Pomegranate Trees

My friend wants to grow a fruit tree in her backyard and she has been doing her research on which types would grow best in our climate. Since we live in a tropical country that only has two seasons – summer (hot and humid) and rainy, she has decided to grow Pomegranate trees. Fig trees are also as flexible but pomegranate trees bear fruit that everyone in her family loves. They have bought the seedling trees and will be planting soon.

If you are interested in growing them, here are some points you need to remember:

Temperature
Pomegranate trees are best suited in areas offering hot summers.

Light
They are best suited to tropical areas and need to be planted in a location that gives them direct sunlight. They need an entire day of sun exposure to more likely produce edible fruit. Trees grown in shade still bear fruits, but they tend to be smaller and taste bitter.

Soil
What is great about pomegranate trees is that they can grow in any type of soil as long as they have good drainage. Deep loam is the soil of preference though.

Water
They can live in semi-dry conditions. You need to soak it with water every two to four weeks during dry season.

Industrial Safety Boots

The industrial workplace has set a lot of safety standards and security procedures to ensure that the workers are safe and the company is protected from liabilities.

 

For example, workers in construction sites need to be in complete safety gear when working on and off site. They should be provided with safety boots or steel toe boots, a hard hat helmet, gloves and safety glasses. Sometimes, wide width boots are given too.

 

In fact, The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) states that employees who work in industrial environments, such as construction sites or manufacturing plants, must wear steel-toe shoes or boots to protect their feet from hazards. Some footwear even has built-in metatarsal protection. Shoes with rubber soles provide the extra grip needed to prevent an employee from slipping in rainy or wet conditions.

In special cases, knee-high boots offer employees extra protection. They are used when workers must wade into water or would venture into extreme heat like a fire. These boots will protect their feet from getting wet in water or getting burned in fire. Soldiers and firefighters wear these kinds of boots.

In an office environment, boots are not required and employees cannot prevent their women employees from wearing heels. It is now their responsibility to have signs when there is a wet or slippery floor or warning signs that there is an uneven flooring that is an accident hazard.

Caring For Your Cellphone Batteries

Almost everyone these days own at least one cellphone. Most of the time, people own multiple cellphones – and the rate they change phones these days are more often. Given the numerous upgrades technology has given to mobile phones and how affordable some has become, no wonder our environment is taking a blow with all the electronic waste we turn out per year.

Like motorcycle batteries and discount batteries, one should care for their cell phone batteries. There are ways to make them last longer and proper ways of disposing them too.

1. Follow manufacturers’ instructions. It might be exciting to use your phone immediately after purchasing but it is essential to follow instructions when it comes to the initial charging of your battery.
2. Clean. Use a cotton swab and alcohol to gently clean the contacts, or the small prongs, of your battery.

3. Keep them cool. Never leave them under direct sunlight. It needs to be stored at a temperature between 60-78F.

4. Unplug battery after charging. Do not let it stay connected to a charger after it has been fully charged for long periods of time.

5. Dispose properly and responsibly. Recycle batteries no longer in use or are broken. Search for a local dealer in your area that collects used and broken cellphone batteries for recycling.
