“The Saturn V is the ideal icon to represent a big dream. This rocket was designed and built as a collaboration of nearly half-a-million people and allowed our human species to venture beyond our world and stand on ANOTHER - SURELY one of the biggest dreams of all time. ENABLING THE DREAMS of young people to touch this mighty rocket sends a powerful message in conjunction with creating an educational curriculum to engage students to embrace the power of learning through many important subjects”
-Neil deGrasse Tyson, Director of the Hayden Planetarium, New York

When my sister saw this post, she asked, "What kind of diet are you on?" All three canisters originally had chocolate in them. Yes, I ate/drank them all single-handedly. New year's resolution: lose holiday pounds.
Rather than throw out your old toothbrush, reuse it and give it new life as something else...it's called recycling!

Governor of Florida Jeb Bush at TurboCam, Barrington, New Hampshire on August 7th by Michael Vadon Part 1 of 4
CONCORD, N.H. —Less than a day after the first debate of the GOP primary, former Florida governor Jeb Bush is back in New Hampshire campaigning.
Less than a day after the first debate of the GOP primary, former Florida governor Jeb Bush is back in New Hampshire campaigning.
At a town hall Friday night in Barrington, Bush spoke about how he won't campaign with anger and instead spoke a lot about policy.
He started his day at Brown's Lobster Pound in Seabrook. After greeting voters -- trying a lobster roll -- Bush told reporters he plans to campaign hard on and off the debate stage between now and the primaries.
"I think I did fine (in the debate). I am who I am," Bush said.
He's declining to criticize his Republican rivals, including Donald Trump, who refused to pledge support to the party's eventual nominee. Instead, Bush says he's focused on sharing his record as governor with voters and letting people get to know who he is.
"So you take advantage of opportunities when you have them, speak from your heart," Bush said. "I don't view this debating as question of winning or losing. It's the cumulative effect of shaping peoples opinion of who you are over the long haul."
Bush said Democrats' attacks against him show he is the candidate they fear most.
"Let me think why they would be. Because maybe it's because they consider me the biggest threat," Bush said.

John Ellis "Jeb" Bush (born February 11, 1953) is an American businessman and politician who served as the 43rd Governor of Florida from 1999 to 2007.
Bush is the second son of former President George H. W. Bush and former First Lady Barbara Bush, and the younger brother of former President George W. Bush, grandson of the late Prescott Sheldon Bush, American Banker and United States Senator from Connecticut. He grew up in Houston, Texas. He graduated from the Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts and attended the University of Texas, where he earned a degree in Latin American affairs. Following his father's successful run for Vice President in 1980, he moved to Florida and pursued a career in real estate development. In 1986, Bush was named Florida's Secretary of Commerce, a position he held until his resignation in 1988 to help his father's successful campaign for the Presidency.
In 1994, Bush made his first run for office, narrowly losing the election for governor by less than two percentage points to the incumbent Lawton Chiles. Bush ran again in 1998 and defeated Lieutenant Governor Buddy MacKay with 55 percent of the vote. He ran for reelection in 2002 and won with 56 percent to become Florida's first two-term Republican governor. During his eight years as governor, Bush was credited with initiating environmental improvements, such as conservation in the Everglades, supporting caps for medical malpractice litigation, moving Medicaid recipients to private systems, and instituting reforms to the state education system, including the issuance of vouchers and promoting school choice.
Bush is a candidate for the Republican nomination in the 2016 presidential election.

Tarsha and Trent of the Community Artists Collective run one of the most successful community gardens in the Houston area. More than likely, these concrete blocks were destined for a landfill before Satterfield and Pontikes Construction Co. donated them to the Reuse Warehouse. The blocks make excellent raised beds.
This was a great way to use reuse some of the trash we generate. Since all the trash goes into $3.00 trash bags, less is a good thing.
I have been working on making some reusable bags. I like this one because it has long handles and is a heavy upholstery fabric that some one gave me. It's lined and about 16" x 16".
Here are my entries for ReUse Project 3. This project is asking people to reuse anything they can get their hands on for a bit of artistic doodling, and the results will be shown in an abandoned building in Israel.
A Bronze Age ditch was reused as a cemetery site in the Late Romano-British period. Here a number of graves were cut into the soft,silty fills of the ditch and bodies were laid to rest there. However, in most cases the original grave cut was revisited and later bodies placed in the same space after the earlier burials had been moved out of the way. In all cases the bones from earlier burials had been carefully moved and replaced within the graves once the new burial had been deposited. Here we can see the excavation of two skulls lying side by side in a grave.

Pacific View Elementary School was closed a number of years ago due to changing demographics in its coastal Encinitas neighborhood. It's been vacant - and deteriorating - ever since, as the school district and community debate the site's future.

Final test firing of reusable solid rocket motor FSM-17 on Feb. 25 in Promontory, Utah.
From the NASA news release about the test:
NASA's Space Shuttle Program conducted the final test firing of a reusable solid rocket motor Feb. 25 in Promontory, Utah.
The flight support motor, or FSM-17, burned for approximately 123 seconds – the same time each reusable solid rocket motor burns during an actual space shuttle launch. Preliminary indications show all test objectives were met. After final test data are analyzed, results for each objective will be published in a NASA report.
ATK Launch Systems, a unit of Alliant Techsystems Inc., in Promontory, north of Salt Lake City, manufactures and tests the solid rocket motors.
The test – the 52nd conducted for NASA by ATK – marks the closure of a test program that has spanned more than three decades. The first test was in July 1977. The ATK-built motors have successfully launched the space shuttle into orbit 129 times.
"Today's test was a great deal more than the successful conclusion to a series of highly successful NASA/ATK-sponsored static tests that began more than three decades ago," said David Beaman, Reusable Solid Rocket Booster project manager at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala. The project, part of the Space Shuttle Propulsion Office, is responsible for motor design, development, manufacturing, assembly, testing and flight performance.
"These tests have built a base of engineering knowledge that continued engineering development of the reusable solid rocket motor system and the continued safe and successful launch of space shuttles," Beaman said. "They have provided an engineering model and lessons learned for additional applications in future launch systems."
The final test was conducted to ensure the safe flight of the four remaining space shuttle missions. A total of 43 design objectives were measured through 258 instrument channels during the two-minute static firing. The flight motor tested represents motors that will be used for all remaining space shuttle launches.
The space shuttle's reusable solid rocket motor is the largest solid rocket motor ever flown, the only one rated for human flight and the first designed for reuse. Each shuttle launch requires the boost of two reusable solid rocket motors to lift the 4.5-million-pound shuttle vehicle.
During space shuttle flights, solid rocket motors provide 80 percent of the thrust during the first two minutes of flight. Each motor, the primary component of the shuttle's twin solid rocket boosters, generates an average thrust of 2.6 million pounds and is just over 126 feet long and 12 feet in diameter.

Tsatsyn Denj Deerstones on the bluffs North of the Tamir River in association with many later monuments. Many of the deerstones were reused as walls in Square tombs. Recent excavations by the Monaco mission under the direction of Jerome Magail have reerected many of these and we were able to see 43 in the area (two have been moved to Ulaan Baatar) Originally, the valley must have been lined with hundreds of deerstones with several on every point in the bluffs. While the exact meaning of deerstones is still debated, they are clearly totemic markers with shamanic content, symbolizing simultaneously a stylized human form, the sacred cosmos and the fertilizing phallus. The Forest God in the Japanese Manga film "Princess Mononoke" give a good idea of what the deerstone represent. They are not grave markers, though some are associated with (later?/contemporary?) Khirig Sur (kurgan) burials. Almost all have highly stylized bird-reindeer with open beaks and baroque horns, flying between earth and heaven, which also represent tattoos or embroidery, a belt which also represents the earth, suns that double as ears, a line of dots that demarcate both the heavens and the glans of the penis, and an enigmatic sporran--which may be a shield or shamanic cloak or bag. Weapons (sword, bow--sometimes drawn, with arrow--, quiver or bow case, axe, dagger) are also common. Most deerstones were erected on South-facing bluffs overlooking rivers, as here over the Tamir, where they would be both visible and in position to influence the fertility of the valley. Today, each family has its deerstone or group of deerstones, which they usually protect (though one family was using theirs as the roof of a dog house). Bronze Age (recently dates have crept earlier to roughly 1300 BC - 700 BC). When I first came to Mongolia in the 1990s, deerstones were considered rare. That situation has since changed radically. The later builders of Square Tombs loved deerstones for their sacred power and would drag them a long way to use as the walls and covers of their tombs (as many as 11 deerstones per tomb). As a result, now that Square Tombs are being excavated regularly, more than 700 deerstones are known. I'd estimate at least 2000 deertsones survive in Mongolia in Square Tombs. This large number indicates that they may hae been clan specific and that they were erected at fairly frequent intervals (e.g. after an eclipse or on the death of a ruler).

what do you do with those images you take accidentally, when your camera goes off inadvertently? Or those shots that are blurry or just plain look bad? Do you just delete them? Well, don't "waste" those bytes and pixels anymore! Reduce, reuse and recycle!
With a few clicks in Photoshop, you can make something out of nothing, reclaiming those otherwise wasted pixels and turning it into a work of art!
Okay, so it's NOT really a work of art, but you can still make use of what otherwise might have been deemed a throwaway shot. Here, my camera went off by accident. The original frame is a much wider shot angled oddly and naturally not well focused. I rotated, cropped, played with some levels and filters in Photoshop and "saved" an otherwise wasted frame! ^^

Genanvendelse af tidligere industri i Bordeaux. Mellem bygningerne var caféer, spisesteder og masser af liv. I bygningerne foregik alle mulige aktiviteter. Et meget levende sted.
Five doors went in to this bookshelf, desk, storage, folding bed project. The end door is held in place by friction. Two bolts press into a piece of wood in the ceiling. I used ideas from the book Nomadic Furniture. The three shelves were cut lengthwise from one door and mounted to the wall on strips of lumber cut to fit inside the open side of the cut up door pieces. That was an idea I saw in Handyman Magazine. The top shelf was open on both sides so I cut a piece of molding to cover it. Then patched all the door hinge cut-outs and lock holes.
