- To the trustees of the Mof­fat Library in Washingtonville who are working on plans to restore the building and to the members of the community for their support. Damage from storms several years ago forced the 127-year-old building to close and books and items were relocated to a tem­porary home. But the library, one of the most charming in the area and certainly the most attractive building in Washing­tonville, deserves to occupy its historic place in the heart of the community. If all goes well, and all the money that is necessary can be found, the books and the patrons should be back where they belong in a few years. - To Ellenville Elementary School for teaching students about two of the other Rs – recycling and raising funds. Ellenville is one of thousands of schools across the country earning money by collect­ing and recycling the drink pouches they use at home and in the lunchroom. So far, they have earned more than $1,200 for the school through the Ter­raCycle and Capri Sun’s Drink Pouch Brigade. While it is true that this program is good for the company because it encour­ages students to buy this brand, there is nothing stopping others from launching similar re­wards programs to encourage recycling and promote their own products. - To the SUNY New Paltz 3-D printing program, formally known as the Hudson Valley Advanced Manufacturing Cen­ter, for putting new technology to use in a very dramatic way. Using about $20 in materials, one of the center’s MakerBot tabletop 3-D printers created a prosthetic hand for a local 6-year-old who was born with­out fingers on his left hand. The technique holds great promise because while such prosthet­ics can cost tens of thousands of dollars and children can outgrow them quickly, the 3-D printers can quickly and inexpensively make them as needed. - To St. Luke’s Cornwall Hospital for earning the “Most Wired” award from Hospitals & Health Networks magazine, the only hospital in the Hudson Valley to receive the distinc­tion. The hospital was recog­nized for its electronic data sharing and its participation in the New York State Patient Portal as well as the use of technology to reduce medical errors. - To the passersby who acted quickly to rescue a baby ac­cidentally locked inside a car and to the others who have reported some not-so-acciden­tal cases, ones where parents have left children inside hot cars on hot days despite all of the warning about the dangers involved. If parents know no better or do not care enough, they deserve to be reported and the children deserve to be rescued. - To Kittatinny Canoes, its employees and the hundreds of volunteers who paddled out from Matamoras, Pa., last week and helped pull up piles of trash from Barryville to Dingmans Ferry, Pa., during the 25th annual On and Under the Delaware River Cleanup. Since 1990, the annual effort has removed 440 tons of trash from the river, including 8,547 tires and 8,544 pounds of alu­minum cans. - To Boice Brothers Dairy of Kingston and all of its hungry helpers who set a record for creating the world’s longest sundae, a concoction of vanilla ice cream, sprinkles, chocolate sauce and whipped cream more than 1,600 feet long.

Have you ever wondered what happened to the garbage we throw away . Well we all know it goes to the dump and to cause landfill . There is a company who is doing amazing things with some of the products we throw away and makes awesome products to help the environment. Terracycle is a company that recycles our fruit pouches chip bags ect to keep them out of the dump.You can donate your used products at any terracycle drop of spot or you can collect them and mail them back to Terracycle you can find their labels on the site you print it off and put it on your package and mail it that’s it . I think that is pretty amazing of a company to take of empty products and turn them into something that we can use other than their original purpose. They have several different products for pets, gardens,school supplies and many more. Terracycle products can be found several retailers such as Wal-Mart Target,on-line. I received a Capri Sun lunch bag to review. I was so excited when I got my Capri Lunch bag, I couldn’t wait to try it out and to see what people had to say. I pulled my Capri Sun Lunch bag out of the box and I quickly fell in love. I couldn’t believe that Capri sun pouches could be made into a lunch box. I checked out the stitching that was used on the lunch box and it is of very high quality.You can see how well the stitching is done on the outline of the bag and where the handles are attached as well. A great product. I took my Capri Sun Lunch box to a family function to carry what I like to drink. When I arrived everyone that I seen couldn’t help but comment on the Capri bag. They asked if I had mad it and I told everyone no . They couldn’t believe that it was made from  real Capri sun pouches. I told them about the company and showed them the website . Everyone was so impressed with what the company does that they are looking into collecting pouches and chip bags to send in. I was very impressed with my family and wanted to help .

Möglich ist das Sammelprogramm durch die Mundhygienespezialisten elmex, meridol und Colgate und das Umweltunternehmen TerraCycle, mit dem Ziel, Ressourcen zu schonen und die umweltfreundliche Entsorgung von Zahnpflegeprodukten zu ermöglichen.

 

7月21日（月・祝）海の日、安倍昭恵・首相夫人が中心となり「海の日に美しい海岸で楽しむBBQ大会」が、岩手県気仙沼市の気仙沼大島で開催された。大快晴のなか、東京などから約100人、現地からおよそ200人の参加者が集まって海をたのしんだ。

Das Team der Zahnarztpraxis Dr. Hoffmann/Dr. Glinz in Mauer bei Heidelberg beteiligt sich an den Recyclingprogrammmen von Terracycle, bei denen Abfall recycelt wird, der bisher nicht recycelt werden konnte. Alle können alte Stifte und Zahnpflegeutensilien (Zahnbürsten, Zahncremetuben, Zahnseidedöschen...) in der Praxis abgeben.
