Mommy, Where Do Diners Come From?
Submitted as: John Tang
From lunch wagons to stone edifices, here’s a quick history of the structure you may be sitting in.
With a giddyup and a creak of wooden wheels, an enterprising Rhode Islander named Walter Scott launched the fast-food era in the late 1800’s. Factory workers in Providence lined up at his lunch wagon, and soon the meals-on-wheels concept spread through New England and south to New York and New Jersey. At some point the wheels came off, the horses went to the glue factory, utilities were connected, signs went up, and the aromas of coffee and frying bacon drew people into the cozy confines of the first diners.(read

"green" Manufacturing Of Industrial Scales
Submitted as: Larry Tang
There are a wide range of standard industrial weighing scales that serve many requirements. Large loads are accurately weighed on floor scales. Often, forklifts are used to place pallets or totes of material on the scales. Platform sizes may range from a standard pallet size of 4’ x 4’ up to as large as 12’ x 8’ for very large loads. The weight information may be used to determine the shipping weight. Or for incoming purposes, it can verify that the proper quantity of material has been received. Communication options allow this weight data to be directed to a printer, if necessary, to provide a hard copy. Or the data may be entered into a company’s computer system for database or billing purposes.(read

An adult may be told to take 2 aspirin. A child should only take one. And a baby may be given a special dosage of baby aspirin. This may not be a very exact system. One adult may weigh only 98 lb. Another may weigh more than 300 lb. Occasionally, a doctor may choose to vary the dosage based on the size of the patient.(read

Creating Environmental Consciousness
Submitted as: Larry Tang
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) warns consumers to evaluate carefully environmental claims, such as degradable, recyclable, environment friendly, environmentally safe, on product labels or in advertising. As such, almost all the products that fill up the shelves claim to be "eco friendly", but it seems like this has become a catch-phrase. For instance, if a label says "recycled," FTC recommends checking the percentage of the product or package that is recycled, because unless the product or package contains 100 percent recycled materials, the label must indicate how much of it is recycled.(read
