This is a construction scene of a road being built on a cliff, and it's frightening.I'm a total novice when it comes to construction, so I can't really explain it well.When I look at this construction site, I begin to feel an indescribable anxiety about common sense regarding structural mechanics, and even safety.A total of seven shots of the construction work.The photo in No. 5 looks like a completed concrete road, but I wonder how those thin rods can support the upper structure. I wonder if the concrete structure is made by drilling holes in the rock and inserting rebar. Still... something seems strange.Besides, why would they need to build a concrete road on such a rock face?Something's wrong. Dear workers, safety measures = 0 (zero) Anyway, it's strange.But... however...In places where they somehow manage to do something like this, There is something to learn!

Life for the President and their family is far from ordinary, governed by protocols that shape everything from their daily routines to personal freedoms. It’s a life of prestige, yes—but also one of constant scrutiny, tradition, and carefully monitored boundaries. Food Expenses For the Family of the President.Despite access to top-notch culinary staff and a kitchen that rivals fine dining establishments, the presidential family must pay for their personal groceries from the president’s salary, except for official state dinners.Outside of dining with global dignitaries, the presidential family covers its own meal expenses, a surprising fact considering the opulence of its available resources.
