In past articles we have talked about green burials and how they are able to help the environment. Green burials are also helpful for your wallet. By going green you can save yourself from many of the expensive funeral costs. Two ways to go green and save money when paying for a funeral are: 1. skip embalming. 2. seek a cemetery that doesnât require use of a burial liner or a burial vault (natural burial grounds are great for this!) On average if you cut these two expenses you can save around $1,900.
Roadmaster (bicycles) Roadmaster Bicycles were first introduced by the Cleveland Welding Company in 1936.

Invention of pedal driven bicycle? According to the research of his relative James Johnston in the 1890s, Macmillan was the first to invent the pedal-driven bicycle. Johnston, a corn trader and tricyclist, had the firm aim, in his own words to prove that to my native country of Dumfries belongs the honour of being the birthplace of the invention of the bicycle. Macmillan allegedly completed construction of a pedal driven bicycle of wood in 1839 that included iron-rimmed wooden wheels, a steerable wheel in the front and a larger wheel in the rear which was connected to pedals via connecting rods.
