The romans first adapted the idea of a flushing toilet during the Hellenistic era from the Greek empire. They expanded on the idea of a toilet, changed its design and familiarities. Rome’s population was only exponentially growing, and with very little progress in their sanitation system at first, the waste…

In the future, decisions to acquire an animal may arise. Bringing home a loving pet has two options adoption from a shelter or rescue, or purchasing an animal from a breeder or a pet shop. Although a breeder may have plenty of purebreds, adopting should be the preferred option. When one chooses a specific animal like a cat or dog from a shelter, information about the chosen animal may not be known prior to adopting, like the breed and unknown health problems. Saving the life of an animal from a…

As the population increase during the nineteenth century, the need for housing grew especially for the working class. Lots 25 X 100 feet that were designed for single row houses were extended reaching 5 floor or up to six. These crowded dwellings, called tenements (equivalent to Latin Tene (re) to hold), were occupied mostly by immigrants. Typically they staying 4 families per floor, with 10 to 12 members per family and 2 to 3 rooms per family. These tenements lacked basic services such as…

Your palms are sweating as you lean over the toilet. Eyes closed, breath wavering you raise your fingers to your mouth. Mouth open, shaking fingers move toward the back of the throat where they press down against it. Leaning forward as the contents of the stomach empty into the toilet, you are dry heaving now. This is not the first time today this has happened, in fact, it is going to happen numerous times more. Why? Because you are bulimic. According to Medical News Today, over forty percent of…

“She barely made it into the stall, threw all her stuff on the floor, damn the laptop, and fixed herself so she could sit on the commode.” Cheryl, the main character, held her stomachache from work to library because she thought she could get away with it.

In "Strange Encounters of the Restroom Kind", Deartra D.…

special toilets designed to use less water in flush and usage of renewed water. So, my dream city would be like this: Everyone use electrical equipment judiciously. Electricity would be produced from Solar, Wind, and Tidal & Hydroelectric energy. Everyone would use jute and paper bags and won’t do unnecessary shopping. Every bit of paper would be recycled. Cars would run on hydrogen, battery and car pool would persist. Cycles would be preferred more. Toilets would…

The Heart of Prejudice Prejudice is a two-headed serpent. When prejudice exists, it is never one-sided, and it is driven by fear. In The Heart of a Samurai, by Margi Preus, one sees the dual-sided fears that create prejudice. Fears of unfamiliar customs, differences in religion, and personal appearance issues created prejudices exhibited by the Japanese and the “barbarians”. The Japanese people called Americans the “foreign devils—the barbarians” (4). Fear was created in the Japanese because…

If I was a pilgrim on the Mayflower I would be scared, Because of all the death and sickness on the boat. I would also be happy because of the new world. Also nevus of all the dangers in the new world. If I had to sign the contract I would be okay with it. I mean it would not be so hard. I would just sign my name and get it done. If others were fighting about the contract I would say, “ it is okay, you just have to sign”. The thing I would be scared of is what rules. The 1st rule…

I visited Harmons and first looked at toilet paper, but that was too confusing. There are too many variables ranging from different sizes to different numbers of plys to different strengths. So I settled on Purina Dog Chow. 8.8lbs. @ $10.79 = 1.23 18.5lbs @ $13.59 = .73 42lbs @$34.49 = .82 As you can see this brand of dog food did not follow the logic of larger is cheaper. The large 42-pound bag actually costs more per unit than the mid-size bag. I believe in many instances the smaller size…
