    CHINA CHINA BANS SOME EXPORTS TO NORTH KOREA
    September 24, 2013 - China

    China has announced that they are banning the export of some materials and technologies to North Korea that could potentially aid in the development of nuclear weapons. The move is important because China is North Korea's only ally and is making a somewhat firm statement against the country in favor of cooperating with the international community and the United Nations.

    TIME RECORDER
    September 24, 1889 - U.S.A.

    Alexander Dey patented the dial time recorder. This style of time clock was first manufactured by the Dey Company and then as Industrial Time Recorders (ITR) after 1907. It used a dial that employees were required to point to their assigned number, and press to record the time of arrival and departure. The numbers of the employees and times were recorded on a sheet of paper wrapped around a drum.

    about Eyesight Myth and Fact

    Myth: Staring at a computer screen all day is harmful to the eyes. Fact: Spending the day staring at a screen can tire or strain your eyes, but it will not hurt them. Make sure lighting doesn't create a glare on your screen. When spending long periods at your keyboard, take a break now and then to rest your eyes to reduce fatigue. Also, don't forget to blink. Your eyes need to stay lubricated to feel comfortable.
