... the bus. In this early morning, there are already some people on this bus. Some of them hurrying to school, some of them hurrying to their work, but everyone at least could have their seat. I started to read my book and worried about the quiz I would have that day. Suddenly, an invisible power pulled my attention to a couple whom had just gotten on the bus. Maybe because they were the only two that was standing in this bus or maybe because I felt tired of my book, I felt enjoy by watching them. Therefore, I started to observe them. They were around their twenties, possibly on their way to school because of the books in their hands. The boy looked handsom ...
... logic is a man made tool, it can be used to understand an event controlled or created by man, and cannot understand something that is one hundred percent natural.

... But John also knew about a type of bridge that could solve all the problems. It was called a suspension bridge. Every suspension bridge is different, but they all work in the same way. The roadway doesn’t rest on supports. Instead it hangs in the air, suspended from thick cables. Only two towers are needed to hold up the cables, and they can be placed far apart to keep the river open for boat traffic. Finally in 1867 The New York Bridge Company made John A. Roebling engineer. In just three months he produced all drawings, cross sections, location plans, preliminary surveys, estimated cost, took sounding, and wrote his proposal. In June of 1869 John finis ...
... for the tribe was simple, it went something like this: Fight until the problem is solved, don’t fight simply for the sake of killing some one, to do so would be dishonorable. This style of battle highlighted the fact that the Sioux people were not savage killers, but simply fighters for peace. The reason that this tactic did not work on the whites was because the white man’s ethic of fighting was no where near the ethics of the Sioux. White man believed that they had a given right to annihilate anyone they wanted. This is why the tactics of the Sioux people were not successful when it came to fighting off the whites of the time. Sitting Bull, was i ...
... needed to operate this equipment will be reduced. The building and repair of highways and maintenance require a large consumption of energy, not only in the operation of equipment, but also in the manufacture and transportation of the required materials. An increase in the percentage of people telecommuting to work will decrease the need for expanded highways and associated road maintenance.

The office building has heating, cooling, and lighting needs, and the materials to build it and maintain it requ ...

... dogs, cats do not bark or make loud noises. Most cats dont even meow very often. They are generally content to lead a quiet existence. Cats also don't often have "accidents." Mother cats train their kittens to use the litter box, and most cats will use it without fail from that time on. Even stray cats generally understand the concept when shown the box and will use it regularly. Cats do have claws, and owners must make provisions for this. A tall scratching post in a favorite cat area of the house will usually keep the cat content to leave the furniture alone. As a last resort, of course, cats can be declawed.

Other than displaying the sender’s number, it can display time and date - big deal. Some newer pagers are able to display text messages.
