I don't know if anyone has heard of this old trick, but here is something to help you with fake jewlery. You know how fake jewelry loves to give us a nice green tint on our skin or give us allergic reactions, well this is a trick to help stop that from happening. Clear nail polish. All you need is a coat of clear nail polish over your jewelry. This prevents the green tinting from leaving the jewelry and any other reactions. The only thing is, you need to keep reapplying a coat as needed, the nail polish will come off eventually.

RAM: Random-Access Memory
Goes with the article: Speed Modification with RAM, Page Filing & Visual Settings
RAM is the short term for Random Access Memory. This is basically the limit of how many processes your computer can handle at once. RAM is measured in mega-bytes. To see your RAM, press ALT + CTRL + DEL all at once, this opens up a process called Task Manager (if not, task manager should be a choice in the series of choices it posts). At the bottom right of this window, there should be an amount. That amount is the total RAM and page file you have on your system. (*Note: If you want to know more about page files, go to the link above.)
Ram Sizes
I hope this better explains why your computer is slow or why processes are so limited.
256MB-This is the smallest amount of RAM computers have anymore. This little bit is good if you just want your computer to turn on and perform very small tasks such as opening a web page or playing a music.
512MB-The next largest amount of RAM computers have. This allows you to have a little more room to do what you want. With this, you can play games on your computer that do not take up much memory. Still, with this amount of space, you can't play music, a game and have web pages open without those processes to start running slowly.
1GB-The most popular size of RAM for obvious reasons. This one allows you to have your background processes such as firewalls and anti-virus or anti-spyware to be running AND allow you to play games via your internet browser or however you wish.
2GB-Next most popular but that much more expensive. This RAM is typically for multimedia-based computers and those who are running many processes at once.
*Note: RAM goes all the way up to 8GB but they are the same as the 2GB definition.
Purchasing RAM
After hearing so much about this RAM, you're probably thinking, well hey! Where can I get some of this? Well, there are a lot of factors that go in with purchasing the correct RAM for your computer. I will write about it in a later article but for now you can research it on your own. Don't purchase until you have all the information you need! Not just any RAM will work with just any computer.
In Conclusion
RAM is the amount of processes your computer can handle at once. If you're looking to speed up your computer, that is an issue relating towards your processor. You still can help the processes you want to complete by closing out others that are not necessary.

Very Helpful Natural Remedy: Green Tea
Green tea.. This stuff helps with so very much!! Green tea is known to help with not only colds and allergies, but it boosts your immune system, your metabolism, help nourish your skin, boost energy levels and so much more! Green tea is packed with anti-oxidants, almost 200 a serving. For those who do not enjoy drinking water, this may be a considerable alternative. The best part about the green tea is that, you only would have to drink one eight-ounce glass to see some effects (but you may have as many as you want, there is no limit). It is recommended to have at least two eight-ounce glasses though, to see very pleasant effects. Another benefit about green tea is, its all natural and inexpensive.

Aloe Vera Face Treatment
So, I just tried a new face treatment made out of aloe vera. As it turns out, it works, but not very well. This treatment does work as a very cheap replacement to buying face wash, but in all honesty, you could buy other face washes for not very much money that work quite a bit better. If you do wish to try this treatment for yourself, the steps go as follow.
Aloe Vera Face Treatment
*Note: Remember to test the aloe on your skin in case you get a reaction!!
1) You cut an aloe "leaf" from the bottom of the plant. Cut it along the middle.
2) Take the two sides, flip the side with the sharp edges to the bottom. Be careful not to hurt yourself!!
3) Cut along the gooey liquid, scraping the goo over with a knife, as you collect it, rub it gently on your face.
4) Allow it to set for a minute to three, but not much longer!
5) Start to work water into the goo, the goo should be stuck to your face at this point.
6) Keep rubbing the goo off gently with water until you think its mostly off.
7) Get a towel and rub off the rest. Don't rub your face too hard!
Your skin should feel a little softer and clean in a few minutes. You will soon see why its not that great, unless you really need a remedy that is soft on your skin.
