Often times going back and forth across a room to get a trash bag is a waste of a person’s time, and energy. By allowing the trash can to work like a wipes dispenser it will decrease the amount of time spent doing household chores. Every time a standard polyethylene garbage bag is pulled out from the bottom of  a wastebasket another one will emerge. The Built-in Trash Bag Dispenser would benefit anyone who owns a trash can. This invention would be most appreciated in homes, buildings, and restaurants. Which is where the most municipal solid waste is produced. Constructing a trash can that dispenses its own garbage bags would enable people to quickly replace trash bags throughout their homes. . Better.. . Thomas Bus Oct 4, 2011. .

Peter Watson\'s hugely ambitious and stimulating history of ideas from deep antiquity to the present day—from the invention of writing, mathematics, science, and philosophy to the rise of such concepts as the law, sacrifice, democracy, and the soul—offers an illuminated path to a greater understanding of our world and ourselves. It all starts with a rolling suitcase. Though the wheel was invented some five thousand years ago, and the suitcase in the nineteenth century, it wasn’t until the 1970s that someone successfully married the two. What was the hold up? For writer and journalist Katrine Marçal, the answer is both shocking and simple: because “real men” carried their bags, no matter how heavy.  Mother of Invention is a fascinating and eye-opening examination of business, technology, and innovation through a feminist lens. Because it wasn’t just the suitcase. Drawing on examples from electric cars to bra seamstresses to tech billionaires, Marçal shows how gender bias stifles the economy and holds us back, delaying innovations, sometimes by hundreds of years, and distorting our understanding of our history. While we talk about the Iron Age and the Bronze Age, we might as well talk about the “Ceramic Age” or the “Flax Age,” since these technologies were just as important. But inventions associated with women are not considered to be technology in the same way. The Benefits of Reading Books It’s no secret that this world we live in can be pretty stressful sometimes.
