Are Cardigans Cool?Written by Mark Shenton
Are Cardigans Cool? How can something that our Parents wear be cool? Hold on a minute, there is even a better question. How can something our Grandparents wear be cool? It seems that wool cardigans have been around forever as this article about history of wool cardigans will tell you. So why are we still wearing them?The truth is that if cardigans have survived as long as they have there must be something about them that we like. Cardigans Looks It seems that just as old saying goes “there is someone out there for everyone”, there is also a cardigan out there for everybody. The older man will fall in love with a fisherman’s cardigan or maybe a nice Woolovers one for golf course. His wife will pop down to shops in a Marks & Spencer special and as for his children, his daughter will probably be out down pub in a trendy tight fitting little cardigan from Gap and his son will be posing down another pub in an expensive Armani number. So as far as looks are concerned, cardigan has passed test of time with flying colours.
| | Soft Hair And Skin Au NaturelleWritten by Gerard Bulger
Just picture this, your walking down beach front, its a warm sunny day, a light breeze in from sea is gently blowing through your hair gives it more waves than ocean. People look at you, men admire your hair and women are jealous, some ask how come your hair is so soft and shiny. At same time they notice how baby soft your skin looks, you look at them with a knowing smile and tell them your secret, 'I use Urine Therapy' you say. Hold on, stop boat, get nose clip out, 'you use urine therapy' they say, 'yes, it's amazing' with that you gently glide into sunset with your hair bouncing for joy. Ok, its seems a little like a hair spray commercial, that is all except urine therapy part, but its true, your OWN urine is one of natures gifts.First of all lets dispense with a few myths about natures finest. Urine smells !! Well actually urine does smell, about 20 minutes after leaving body a certain amount of oxidation takes place and a ammonia like smell occurs, but its harmless and good ventilation or aroma oil keeps smell down. Urine is poisonous !! Well actually its not, 95% of urine is water, 2.5% consists of urea and remaining 2.5% is a mixture of minerals, salt, hormones and enzymes. Toxic substances are being removed from body through liver, intestines, skin and through out-breath. Medical researchers have discovered that many of elements of blood that are found in urine have enormous medicinal value, and when reintroduced to body, they boost body's immune defenses and stimulate healing in a way that nothing else does. I'm not going to try and convince you about purity of urine, if you do a search on net with 'urine therapy' there are many pages describing to process through body that creates good wholesome urine. In fact its only in last 50 years that urine has gone out of fashion, it has been highly praised through out history as a natural substance that has many healing properties. One of biggest users of urine has been cosmetic industry, traditionally produced by horses, it is used as a skin moisturizer. It is only since rise of pharmaceutical industry that use of urine as a general medicine has ceased, well in West, it is still highly prized in Far East. Nothing to do with fact that pharmaceutical companies can't make a profit from it no doubt.
