    Dunder Mifflin Paper Company, Inc. is a fictional paper sales company featured in the American television series The Office. It is analogous to Wernham Hogg in the British original of the series, and Papiers Jennings and Cogirep in the French Canadian and French adaptations respectively. Originally, the company was completely fictitious, but eventually, the brand was used to sell products at Staples and other office supply outlets.Two websites were created to support the fictional company, one with the image of a public website, and one meant to look like the corporations intranet. NBC sold branded merchandise at its NBC Universal Store website. Its logo was prominently displayed in several locations in downtown Scranton, Pennsylvania, where the show is set. Scranton has been associated internationally with Dunder Mifflin due to the shows international reach. In a 2008 St. Patricks Day speech in the suburb of Dickson City, then-Taoiseach, or prime minister of Ireland, Bertie Ahern made a reference to the citys fictional branch office.

    A man posted on an elevation near the sea, who, by concerted signals, directs the fishermen when a shoal of fish is in sight. Synonymous with conder (which see). Also, the hot fountains in the sea near Iceland, where many of them issue from the land.

    The tongue is a muscular organ in the mouth of a typical tetrapod. It manipulates food for mastication and swallowing as part of the digestive process, and is the primary organ of taste. The tongues upper surface (dorsum) is covered by taste buds housed in numerous lingual papillae. It is sensitive and kept moist by saliva and is richly supplied with nerves and blood vessels. The tongue also serves as a natural means of cleaning the teeth. A major function of the tongue is the enabling of speech in humans and vocalization in other animals. The human tongue is divided into two parts, an oral part at the front and a pharyngeal part at the back. The left and right sides are also separated along most of its length by a vertical section of fibrous tissue (the lingual septum) that results in a groove, the median sulcus, on the tongues surface. There are two groups of muscles of the tongue. The four intrinsic muscles alter the shape of the tongue and are not attached to bone. The four paired extrinsic muscles change the position of the tongue and are anchored to bone.

    Thrifting refers to the act of shopping at second-hand stores, consignment shops, flea markets, garage sales, or other similar venues to find used or previously owned items at affordable prices. It often involves seeking out unique or vintage items, as well as clothing and accessories that are no longer in production. Thrifting is popular for its sustainable nature, as it promotes recycling and reusing instead of purchasing new products. It is also seen as a way to save money and express individual style through unique finds.
