Without knowing it, you probably experience the Coriolis Effect every day while going through your normal routines.
Whether you are in the northern hemisphere or the southern hemisphere, water flowing in large volume circulates in a certain direction due to the motion and axis of the earth.
This affects water, clouds, wind. Generally, because of the small volume, it doesn’t affect water in sinks, bath tubs, or toilets.
But doesn’t it affect toilets also?
No, generally the flow in toilets is determined by the physical valve structure of the flush routine which “forces” the water in a certain direction.

“You’re essentially putting Russia first,” said Chris Ford, 26, a Republican in Dallas, tweaking a president who already had only his “lukewarm” support, as of this week. “It’s hard to see how that’s putting America first.” [1]

Beacons are the process by which you can share your location to other Internet and cell phone users. Advertisers may want to display coupons when users are near their restaurant.
