The Many Uses Of Activated Charcoal

You won’t only find activated charcoal in pharmacies or people’s medicine cabinets. Many of us may already know how well it works in removing toxins from our digestive systems. But did you know that it can also purify your home’s air? Why not buy a packet from your local hardware store? Just remember that this variety is not for human consumption, but is to be left in a muslin bag in those dank corners of the house. It not only has the ability to remove bacteria from the air (and other contaminants to which many of us are allergic) but at the same time leave your house smelling sweeter. And the sweetest part? You’ve probably saved some money. How amazing is that?

Jeans Rivets

If you’re a lover of the timeless quality that denim seems to possess, you may have been wondering what the actual purpose of those random extra metallic buttons is. Contrary to what you may believe, these odd seeming buttons are actually quite important. Not only were they attached purposefully, but they are also actually called rivets, and not buttons. They play a crucial role in ensuring that your denim jeans last longer as they strengthen their seams, preventing wear and tear. Levi Strauss, the pioneer of the denim revolution, came up with the idea after countless mine workers commented that their jeans simply did not last long enough.
