Tips on recycling your favorite holiday decorations | Red Satin Ribbon

Also on the list was the end of a comb, some toilet paper, floam (playdoh), a papioca ball, a toy mouse, popcorn, a leaf, a tampon and a googly eye.

Each group ran their design by their teachers, Don Brown at Seymour and Carrie Adler at Trinity. They could base their design on this year’s National Red Ribbon Week theme, “Life Is Your Journey, Travel Drug-Free,” or use some other drug-free message. Red Ribbon Week starts Tuesday and runs through Oct. 31.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M.— Wrapping paper, boxes, and tissue are in abundance in nearly every home following the holidays. But did you know some of it isn’t recyclable?

By this time it was dark enough to turn on the star and see how it looked. Refusing to turn around, I walked all the way down the driveway before looking at it. As I turned and saw it for the first time, I was filled with exhilaration and pride. Tears were welling in my eyes as a proud smile came over my face. Gleaming streams of light from the star seemed to touch the surface of my eyes. I had never had the kind of feeling that I had at that moment. The star, a material Christmas decoration, had become not only a sentimental symbol of Christmas, but also an admiring and loving tribute to Ronnie.

I called Maxine that Tuesday night and told her that Santa Claus came by my house and brought them a surprise. When I got to their home, they both were like little children, all excited. I helped them move some of their furniture in their living room for that two-foot Christmas tree. This brought so much joy to them, and it sure brought joy to me. Maxine even said that she was going to put her candles in the windows.

As for the new offerings in the La D de Dior Satine lineup they come in the form of watches that have either a black or white mother-of-pearl dial.

Since Cast Away in 2000, he’s released seven major movies. Only two of them have led the box office in their first weeks (Beowulf and A Christmas Carol, whose biggest competition was Michael Jackson’s This Is It); two have been massive flops (The Walk and Welcome to Marwen); aside from Flight, all of them have needed the international markets to turn a profit (well, until Marwen, which will almost definitely lose money); and on average they’ve scored about 61 percent on Rotten Tomatoes, with Marwen on the low end of the scale at 26 percent. Zemeckis is making medium-reviewed movies that barely have an audience, and Marwen is a remarkable nadir. I still don’t know what he was going for, and no matter how many questions I ask, I never will.
