With
the involvement and enthusiasm of people
like you, recycling is back! And so are
thousands upon thousands of recycled
products made from materials that would
otherwise be piling up in our nation's
landfills. It doesn't just make sense. It
makes a huge difference to our environment,
our quality of life and our country's
future.
Why
Recycling Is Important.
As stewards of the environment, we are
responsible for preserving and protecting
our resources for ourselves and for future
generations. Getting
Back to Basics
- Recycling is really just
common sense, and until the “modern era,” it
was a common household activity. Before the
1920s, 70% of U.S. cities ran programs to
recycle certain materials. During World War
II, industry recycled and reused about 25%
of the waste stream. Because of concern for
the environment, recycling is again on the
upswing. The nation's composting and
recycling rate rose from 7.7% of the waste
stream in 1960 to 17% in 1990. It's
currently up to around 33%. Learn more

On a Sad
Note |
|
|
VCO columnist and Founder of the
Entertainment Network passed away last
night. We received this from her
daughter Sherrie today: |
|
|
|
|
I am so sorry to tell you...I don't even
have the words...my mother passed away
last night. She would have wanted me to
tell you because she loved you all so
much. She would have wanted everyone to
come together...everyone to celebrate
her life. She has done so much for this
industry...so much for my whole
family...I don't know how to start a day
without her. I hope you will all
understand if there is a time where the
Network is down for a while...I don't
know the time or the date of the
funeral...when I do I'll let everyone
know. I know you love her very
much....like we do...so nothing more
now. God bless you all at these times.
Keep close to your loved ones...you
never know when the last time will come
and you say I love you for the last
time..... Remember to be kind. If
you need me...I'm there. Love,
Sherie |

The Biggest Lobby of Them All
This extraordinary man Barack Obama with
his presidential victory, has not only made monumental
history by his decisive win, but also did something no
other candidate has ever done. He has amassed the
largest “lobbyist pack” in US history!

Home Cooked Meals
I
am thinking about switching my dogs over
to home cooked meals, but I know they
need supplements added to it. In
addition to bone meal and flax oil, is
there anything else you would recommend
and do you carry any of these
supplements?..... |

This Defining
Moment in History
I joined the movement for change at the Nevada Caucus, I
was leaning toward Hillary Clinton but changed my mind while at the
Caucus. The need for change rang loudly in my ears and I made the
decision to jump on board. It felt great to become involved in the
movement for change...... |

Weekly Insight
It is
written that when the Kotzker Rebbe was on his death
bed, all his students gathered around him and asked,
"Master, please tell us, what was the most important
thing you did in your life?" The Kabbalist thought for a
moment and answered, "What I am doing this very minute."....... |
