Buttons on clothes

Western clothes have buttons right for men. This is convenient because the majority of men are right-handed. It's easier for them to use the right hand when buttoning up. Why, then, do women's clothes have buttons on the left, even though most women are also right-handed? Is this a kind of discrimination? In fact, there is a reason why women's buttons are on that side. In the past, buttons were quite expensive and only very rich people could afford them. Women in such wealthy families had servants who dressed them. Therefore, to make it easier for the servants, buttons were put on the left.

Plant's secret power

　In August of 1771, Joseph Priestley put a small branchof the mint into a transparent closed space with a candle that burned out the air until it soon went out. After 27days, he lit the extinguished candle again and it burned perfectly well in the air that previously would not support it. So Priestley proved that plants somehow change the composition of the air. In another celebrated experiment from 1772, Priestley kept a mouse in a jar of air until it collapsed.

This move was strongly opposed by Ukraine and other countries around the world, who saw it as a violation of Ukraine's sovereignty. Since then, the conflict between the two countries has escalated, with fighting breaking out in eastern Ukraine between Ukrainian government forces and Russian-backed separatists. This has resulted in the deaths of thousands of people and the displacement of many more. The international community has been working to find a peaceful solution to the conflict, but so far, no lasting agreement has been reached. Both sides accuse the other of aggression and blame each other for the ongoing conflict. Despite the tensions between the two countries, there are s...

A Difference of gesture

Physical gesture may have different meaning in different cultures, and misunderstanding these signal can sometimes be embarrassing. I once had an experience which I have never forgotten. Some years ago, I took some foreign students to Kyoto. I counted them with the index finger, which is common in Japan. But one of them became quiet and looked puzzled. When I asked him what was the matter, he replied. "In my country, we count people with our eyes. We only use our finger to count pigs." 　Also, he uses gesture while speech. ↓ She often show this gesture. Pointing someone isn't good gesture depending on country.
