Prehistoric peoples' diets consisted of raw meats, roots, leaves, and other foraged foods. To cut up these tough foods, as well as catch, dismember, and consume them, strong teeth were required. Having extra teeth was a huge benefit, especially when there was no dentist nearby to keep teeth healthy. People have evolved since then, and we now have a more refined menu.

Herophilus, an ancient Greek surgeon, was the first to formally refer to the pancreas as a gland in about 300 BCE. The name "pankreas," which means "all flesh," was given to the organ about 400 years later by another Greek anatomist and surgeon by the name of Ruphos. This may have been due to the absence of bone or cartilage in the organ. (Pancreata or pancreases, by the way, are the plural forms of the word pancreas.) Later, in the 16th century, the term "sweetbreads" was used to describe a dish of cooked calf or lamb pancreas. That name may have been derived from the Old English word braed, which means "flesh."

Niagara Falls generates a lot of electricity and erected its first hydroelectric station on the Niagara River in 1881. Today, it generates approximately one-fourth of the electricity for the state of New York and the Canadian province of Ontario, and various hydroelectric facilities in and near Niagara Falls provide electricity for both America and Canada. In the summer, hydroelectric stations divert less water, allowing tourists to view a larger water flow. Because less water falls across Niagara Falls at night, power generation input rises.
