Abacus:

The earliest calculator in the world is the Chinese Abacus. The abacus is a tool for adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing. The Abacus has a rectangular frame with beads strung on rods and set up in rows and columns. with a top half an a bottom half. The bottom half is for counting in units of one and the top half for counting units of five. The numbering sequence starts from the right row which are for counting in ones. Moving by row to the left are tens, hundreds and so on all the way up to billions and trillions on the largest abacuses.

This ancient counting tool is still in common use in China today. It is seen in stores and businesses. In shops and stores the workers are more comfortable working with an abacus than a calculator. I once went to purchase some items and watched the sales clerk attempt several times to calculate the total. Finally, she gave up in frustration, picked up an abacus an promptly cam to the correct amount!. It can frequently (that's right frequently) be seen side by side with calculators and computers in an office environment.

Eastern Toilets

Yes, there is a major difference between Eastern and Western toilets. A western toilet is similar to a seat in that it is at a comfortable position for the user to sit on it as they would a chair. It has a lid and after use, waste is flushed away.

Important: Paper is not available in the facility. Users must always bring their own!

Eastern plumbing is usually without traps and as a result odors can be quite strong.

Western toilet are beginning to gain popularity in China, but very slowly. A funny thing can happen when a local person uses a western toilet.
