Who invented the donut hole?

Who invented the donut hole?


The hole in the doughnut was invented by a 16-year-old sailor named Hanson Gregory. In 1916, the Washington Post interviewed Gregory, the man who claimed to have invented the modern donut back in 1847. Gregory was tired of eating greasy and undercooked donuts with raw dough on the insides.

While penguins are certainly found in large numbers on the Seventh Continent, that’s not the only place you’ll ever see them. Many penguin species make their homes in South America, Africa and Australia instead.  The African penguin, for instance, lives on the Penguin Islands off the coast of Namibia and South Africa. The little penguin, the smallest species of penguin, is from Australia and New Zealand.
And the Galapagos penguin can be found on the Galapagos Islands, in the Pacific Ocean west of Ecuador. Because these islands straddle the equator, these particular birds are the only wild penguins that may live at least part of the time in the Northern Hemisphere.

If you were standing on the Moon, you would always see the Earth in exactly the same position, while the stars and the Sun moved around in the sky. The Moon takes 27.3 days to complete an orbit around the Earth. And this the same amount of time that it takes to turn once on its axis.
