      Recycled Weapons Calls For Peace After Long War
      After more than 30 years of civil war, ending in 1998, the Cambodian government has collected and destroyed more than 160,000 weapons across the country. In the name of peace some of those weapons were donated to the PAPC. The PAPC (Peace Art Project Cambodia) is a project that was created in November of 2003 by British artist Sasha Constable and Neil Wilford, small weapons specialist with the European Union. In the name of peace the weapons were recycled (sculpted, forged or welded) into amazing works of art such as: chairs, tables, bikes, animals and various other sculptures by student artists from the Royal University of Fine Arts in Phnom Penh. Isn't there something twisted about sitting on furniture made of guns? Or making art out of AK-47's? What do you think?Personally I'd like to

      I love summer weather and a recycled horse
      It has been b-e-a-utiful outside lately and I am loving it. It’s amazing how quiet the house gets when the weather gets warmer All the playing outside has been thoroughly wearing the boys out. Also something I love. We also got our first chance to see a ball game here. We took the boys to see the Red Wings Friday night and had a great time. I haven’t had much to say on here as of late, but I hope to have some more blogging ideas in the coming weeks. I certainly have lots of pictures to share. These are all the pics I’ve taken of the boys over the last week or so, including pics from the ball game Friday night. There’s a lot, so I’ll post them after the jump.

      Recycled plastic material
      Have you ever heard of HDPE? HDPE (short for High Density Polyethylene) is a commonly used plastic which can be recycled. "HDPE Scrap" is the collected material which is then sold to be recycled.Virgin HDPE Granules is the pure and freshly made form of HDPE. Unlike scrap HDPE, which has been used for various applications prior to being recycled, Virgin HDPE has never been used for any applications whatsoever. It can easily be recognized by the translucent quality of the pellets or granules, and is regarded as being the most pure and highest quality HDPE product available on the market.So why use Virgin HDPE?

      Save The Environment & Use Recycled Printer Ink Cartridges
      The business of manufacturing printer inks and printer ink cartridges is a multimillion-dollar industry. Most people who own computers also own printers and make use of printer ink cartridges. Hundreds of millions of printer ink cartridges were sold in Europe and the United States in the last two years alone. The question is: where do all these empty printer ink cartridges go? Ideally, used printer ink cartridges should find their way to special recycling centers where the materials these cartridges were made of are retrieved for future use. Unfortunately, only 25% of all those millions of cartridges consumed every year go that way. Empty Printer Ink Cartridges Can Contribute to Pollution Empty printer ink cartridges are non-biodegradable products. This means that if these cartridges end
