Member since June 3 2010 Samuel not so great of a stay. We traveled to Knsas City this past August. We stayed at this hotel found that ussually these hotels are very nice. Check in was great did the speedy checkin, The room had big bed which was great. THE COUCH WAS BIG DAUGHTER DIDNT NEED TO PULL OUT BED IF DIDNT WANT TO THE COUCH WAS SO BIG, the bathroom was ok went in the restoom was spider webs behind door. Breakfast was bad to be such an upscale hotel. The had breads, and otmeal that was it. you could order breakfast which I did the first day. Food was horrible and overpriced for what I got. I went to order something from coffee and the two ladys was standing there for long time talking about the gambling they did the night before. I wouldnt reccemend this hotel.

Member since July 19 2010 Chris Tasty Texmex On the Border is a great place to grab some great texmex. I have no idea what they put in their salsa, but its addictive. And their tortilla chips are HUGE and served toasty warm. Their service is top-notch and their food is so tasty. Next time you're in the mood for something spicy and fund, think On the Border!!
Information About Gold for Gold Jewelry Buyers
One day someone saw a shiny piece of yellow gleaming in a creek bed and picked it up. As they began to play with it, they saw that it could be beaten into almost any shape they wanted it to become. As soon as people began making jewelry to wear for the beauty of it as well as to display their wealth, other people began buying gold jewelry for their own use or to melt it down to make other objects from it.
Gold quickly became a symbol for the powerful and the wealthy due to its unusual beauty and other properties. Gold helped turn money into what it is today and it also helped end the bartering system of days gone by. The portability of this precious metal made it especially popular with gold jewelry buyers since it was easy to hide and also because it was so valuable in small amounts. Much of the early caches of gold were made into the form of jewelry, especially chains. When a person wanted to buy something, they would pay for it with a link from their golden chain.
Over time, gold jewelry buyers realized that a standard measurement needed to be created so that everyone bought and sold their gold the same way almost everywhere they went. While in the beginning gold jewelry buyers used carob seeds to measure out their gold, eventually they all went to what is now known as the 'troy' system. In conjunction with measuring the gold in troy ounces, metallurgists of the day devised a way to measure the purity of the gold. This system used 'carats' which are not to be confused with 'karats' with a 'k'. These 'karats' are used to measure the weight of a gemstone.
Most commonly, gold is marked 24k which is pure gold, 22k, 18k which is the most common for jewelry, and 10k which is less than fifty percent gold. Gold alloys which are less than 10k can not be labeled with a karat amount. Several metals are used for alloying gold. Copper and silver make yellow gold. Silver also makes white gold and so does zinc, nickel and palladium. Copper is used to make pink gold and zinc, silver and copper are used to make green gold. The ratio of gold to the other precious metals determines what the color of the gold will be. Pure gold will always be yellow. Some people are allergic to jewelry that is worn against the skin and that is due to the nickel content in the gold. The person with metal allergies should purchase 24 karat gold since true allergies to pure gold are extremely rare.
