However, if you use a retinoid at night, it won't make your skin any more sensitive to UV radiation. The following morning, just put on your usual amount of clean sunscreen, and you'll be protected.

Viking refers to a procedure in which exhausted rowers aboard a ship turned up their seats to the fresh rowers in Old Norse. The title usually refers to a man who works aboard a ship. Another suggestion is that the title is derived from the Norse phrase for a sea-mile. Even though it makes the connection between man and the water, this idea is less widely recognized among academics. The phrase, which has Old English roots, refers to a poem from the 9th century about pirates and raids from Scandinavia.

During WWII, bright red lipstick surged back into vogue for an unexpected purpose. Adolf Hitler reputedly despised red lipstick, among other reasons. In the 1940s, women crowded the industries on the battlefields wearing red lipstick as a symbol of patriotism and bravery. The Marines pushed this trend a step further by making 'Montezuma Red' lipstick required for female Marines. Montezuma is a line from the Marine song commemorating the Halls of Montezuma, a fight in which US Marines participated during the Mexican War. The color red symbolized the American flag and grew to symbolize strength.

We all recall the tragic incident in which Steve Irwin, a well-known television personality and conservationist, was tragically punctured in the heart by a stingray in 2006. The sting of a stingray typically results in excruciating pain and a high risk of infection at the wound site. Stingrays have long, thin tails with one to three venomous barbs attached. The majority of stingray injuries in the United States, between 1,500 and 2,000 per year, involve the legs or feet, according to the National Capital Poison Control Center.

In the 12th and 13th centuries, a large and powerful Kingdom flourished in the plains of central Myanmar. Kings built a succession of ancient temples and pagodas, which became a center for Theravada Buddhism. This was also the birthplace of the dominance of Burmese culture and language in modern-day Myanmar.

Visiting the temples in modern-day Bagan is one of the top things people do when they visit the country. You can see more than 2000 religious monuments in a very tiny area and experience the best sunset of your life.

Consider the following scenario: a racist man is exposed to Agent Orange-style gas while serving in Vietnam. When he is under stress, he transforms into a black superhero dressed as a Harlem Globetrotter, and neither identity remembers the other. After Marvel's success with Black Panther and Luke Cage, DC's first idea was to create something similar. Perhaps it is a relief that DC chose Black Lightning instead.

Players were never able to advance the ball. Instead, each player was required to toss it from where he caught it. The first team credited with advancing the ball by dribbling did so at Yale in 1897, and the official allowed for dribbling, initially only one per possession, was implemented four years later. The slam dunk, another major basketball technique, was outlawed from the 1967-1968 season until the 1976-1977 season.

Although we are accustomed to seeing spider silk in the form of webs, did you know that it is actually a liquid? When the silk is exposed to air, it hardens, allowing them to create and build their webs.

The Earth has seen a number of mass extinctions. When the previous one occurred 66 million years ago, dinosaurs were extinct. The scientific community agrees that it occurred as a result of the effects of a 10-kilometer asteroid hitting the Yucatan Peninsula. Upon impact, a 180 km crater was left. Due to the chemical makeup of the soil, it is thought that an asteroid, not a comet, killed the dinosaurs.

Victoria and Albert’s first child, Princess Victoria, was born nine months after their wedding. But little Vicky wasn’t an only child for long. A year later, she had a baby brother for company, and within 17 years, the royal household boasted nine children: four boys and five girls.

When skin loses moisture, it loses suppleness, which can lead to wrinkles. Moisturizers aid by retaining liquid or water from the skin's deepest layers.

Particle physics is notoriously complicated, and one example is that the Higgs boson may not exist in a single flavor. Scientists use the term "flavor" to describe distinct variants of the same type of particle. Depending on the theoretical model, there might be five or more varieties of Higgs bosons with various masses.

There are numerous references to this phenomenon when looking deeper into the online crochet community. This completely surprised me because I try to live simply and am generally turned off by consuming more than is necessary. According to a practical joke, crochet hooks ought to be labeled "Caution, use of these may cause yarn addiction!" I think I've got it under control by this point, mostly because I've run out of room and have a closet full of yarn—referred to in the needlecraft community as a stash.

Although Santa Claus is a one-of-a-kind Christmas persona, many actors dress up as the festive figure each year to earn additional money. Mall Santas earn roughly $30 per hour during the holidays, but can earn up to $100 per hour for their services. However, Dan Greenleaf, a professional freelance Santa who owns his own booking agency, told CNBC that the "average hourly mid-range is roughly $150" when he's booked to attend parties, houses, or other events. And if you're very skilled at saying "ho, ho, ho," you might earn $500 per hour. Greenleaf even claims that one of his Santas was promised $1,200 by a Manhattan customer for only one hour on Christmas Day!

With over 500 million copies sold, Don Quixote is the best-selling novel of all time. The novel by Miguel de Cervantes, about a man who becomes obsessed with tales of knights and decides to become one, is the one that gave us the phrase "tilting at Windmills" to describe a noble but futile endeavour. Since its publication in 1612, Don Quixote's misadventures as he travels across the Spanish countryside seeking to right wrongs and uplift downtrodden peoples have entertained generations of readers. Don Quixote is also regarded as one of the first novels ever written.

We also learned that Swiggy is doing its part to help keep its employees safe and protected from the ongoing dangers of the pandemic. The company announced in 2021 that it would pay for the costs involved with the vaccination for its delivery partners. In response to the need for vaccination sites to accomplish this lofty goal, Swiggy set up a Health Hub to provide access to the vaccination clinics across Chennai, Tamil Nadu in March. The hope is that the vaccination of the workers who partner with Swiggy to get deliveries made would help to slow the spread of the disease throughout India, and to help the country return to a more normal state of business operations.
