Instead of paresthesia happens when you interfere with sensory nerves, which send information to the brain and spinal cord about things like how fluffy your dog is, or how much pressure you're putting on something, or whether your drink is still cold.  When your limbs find themselves in awkward positions, you are restricting those nerv

Image source: collegeessay.org Back story I watched a public debate on Youtube yesterday. The debate was between Muhammad Hijab and Jay Smith. What I understood from the debate was that victory of a debater does not depend on his strong knowledge and powerful side only. There are some tricks, by following those, a weaker debater can defeat a stronger opponent. I will explain those cunning tricks in the context of the debate by Hijab and Jay, and some other religious debates I watched. The tricks 1. You decide the topic: Just like Jay did, you must throw a topic or a question to your opponent that you can attack most. You may plan the topic before the debate. In the debate between Muhammad Hijab and Jay Smith, Jay threw the topic: the emergence of Islam. 2. Keep attacking vigorously with little or no defense: You know you are on the weak side, but you keep avoiding your weakness and continue attacking the opponent's side/argument. 3. Finish last: The last speaker gets the chance to

  Image source: Youtube Back story A lot of new apps are developed every day by a lot of developers around the world. Whenever I need an app to get a specific work done, I search it and find it in almost no time. I use youtube mostly to listen to islamic lectures and sometimes nasheed. So, I usually need the youtube audio only, not video. But there is no way to turn video off and keep the audio only in the official youtube app. A lot of internet data, battery charge is consumed that way. You cannot play video in the background on your smartphone; if you shut the screen off, the video will be off. These problems were annoying and at last I found an app. The name of the android app is YMUSIC , made by XDA developers. Why is it special to me? As I was deprived of the features while using the official app, I was very happy upon finding the app. It includes all the features I dreamed of before using it. The features are: Only audio is loaded, no video. But you can turn on the video if you w

Image source: questions-1001.blogspot.com The question: Why is the sky blue? Why does it turn red at sunset? Curious mind wants to know. The answer: If you have very little knowledge of science, you have to understand some easy facts first. The facts: 1. Sunlight is a composite ray. This is why we see a rainbow. The white ray of the sun is composed of 7 visible colors (violet, indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange, and red) along with other rays (x-ray, infrared ray, etc.). You can test it yourself with a prism. Image source: youtube.com Image source: rookieparenting.com 2. Light spreads like a wave. So, sunlight is a wave that is composed of different waves or rays. Different waves are of different wavelengths. The shorter the wavelength of a wave is, the more it is scattered by particles (gas, dust, etc.). And the longer the wavelength of a wave is, the less it is scattered by particles. Thus, a wave with a shorter wavelength can pass a longer distance. 3. Blue light waves are shorter
