How to Shave With Olive Oil


Shave With Olive Oil
As many as 62 percent of people claim to have sensitive skin at one stage or other. Sensitive skin can react poorly to the chemicals in commercial shaving creams and lotions; they can be strong enough to dry out and irritate sensitive skin, leaving you feeling uncomfortable and even more sensitive.
One solution is to turn to using olive oil; it's handy in the pantry, affordable, and it is a natural lubricant that not only makes it easier to shave your skin but it will also leave your skin smooth and soft. All-natural, budget-savvy, and moisturizing all-in-one, olive oil is a shaving solution you have got to try!

What do you call this phenomenon?

Let there be light

We see things everyday that do not correspond to our memory dictionary. And if someone asks as to describe an occurring pehenmoenon, we find ourselves at loss of words for a description. 

If someone asks us what does the phenomenon of the sun rays peeping out of clouds as above or from behind a mountains is called, we would simply call it sun rays - as simple as that. But is this the correct word to describe the phenomenon? Certainly not.

In fact the rays peeping through the clouds or from behind a mountain or an object are called the Crepuscular rays. Some also call these the God's rays. But Crepuscular rays is the correct word. Crepuscular rays appear to diverge outward from behind the clouds or obscuring object.

Although seen diverging out, the light rays are in fact parallel, but these appear to diverge out or converge towards the source, sun in this case, due to perspective, the same way as the rail tracks or a road is seen to be converging in the distance. Crepuscular rays are often red or yellow in appearance because blue light from the sun is selectively scattered out of the beam by air molecules.

How, What, When and Why?


Hobbies and pastimes are generally mind and body relaxing, like sitting by a lake and fishing or reading an interesting book. But there are some who want to dig in something mind boggling, challenging and informative. Their quest for How, What and Why makes them dig deeper into the apparent and find out the hidden secrets. This is what I call How, What and Why hobby.

The How Stuff Works is a famous and one of the most read website to answer the many Hows. Like for instance, one would like to know How a fluorescent bulb glows or How a lead pencil is made. Or one may would like to know How deep is th Pacific Sea or How far is the nearest star after the sun. and still How to find a boy or girl friend (most frequent asked question from fortune tellers). The quest for Hows is very long, but very few attempt to find the answer to the How as it requires extra strain on one’s brain to dig in for an answer.

Likewise the What and Why. Why dogs bark at night or the wolves howl at night? Do these creatures converse with each other or do they just howl or bark to shed away their loneliness? Why do we shed tears while peeling or cutting onions or what is wrong with the people, or What are your strengths and weaknesses type questions in an interview. And finally What is this blog post all about?

Interesting, isn’t it to dig for what apparently there is no answer. In my future posts, I will post the many Hows, Whats and Whys and may be give a clue to their answers. I like setting a bit of mind boggling posts as it adds an informative pastime and hobby.

And wait, we can also add When to the list too, like When was the last time you were really happy? Shouldn't we?
