    Englishmen migrated to the New World because they wanted independence, political freedom, and economic opportunity. The Spanish came as conquerors; the resulting political system was entirely autocratic and solely devoted to the furthering of the motherland. Spain gave its colonies little self-rule. Instead, Spanish rulers dictated all the policies of its New World territories. The English and Spanish both wanted to explore and find new territories too politically and economically control.…

    We don't know much about washing clothes because we tend to do it like Mom did—we haven't just studied the problem very well. In addition, there's a bewildering array of fabric types that we have to take care of, from 100 percent pure cotton to washable silk and even washable, breathable polyester. Rather than learning how to wash each of these, we adopt a sort of middle-of-the-road approach—spray some stain remover on it before throwing it in; maybe pour in some fabric softener; wash it in warm water (Americans seem to be allergic to hot-water washing); rely on the detergent to have a lot of bleaches, color brighteners, and whiteners; give it a cold rinse; and hope for the best.…

    A clothesline or washing line is a piece of rope or wire that people use to hang wet clothes to dry. [Merriam Webster] It may any type of rope, string, cord, or twine that has been stretched between two points generally outside, above the level of the ground. Clothing that have been washed is hung along the line to dry, using clothes pegs or clothespins. Washing lines are attached either from a post or a wall, and are frequently located in back gardens, or on balconies. Longer washing lines often have poles holding up sections in the middle due to the weight of the clothing. The use of the clothesline is dependent upon fair weather and as the powered clothes dryer has become more affordable and included in home automation. However, due to various concerns, pro-environment groups welcome the use of the clothes line. Zoning regulations may prohibit their use as clothes lines are sometimes associated with poverty or considered not aesthetics. More elaborate rotary washing lines save space and are typically retractable and square or triangular in shape, with multiple lines being used. These can be folded up when not in use, although there is a hazard of getting fingers caught in the folded up version, so there is usually a safety button involved.…
