“Outstanding service. They were extremely careful delivering the extra large container into our driveway.” -- A. L. GARNER
North Valley View Road. From there, non-recyclables are sent to a landfill site in Eagle Point, while glass is trucked up to a company in Portland, where it is crushed, melted and repurposed. As of June, certain plastic bags are being sent to Virginia-based, Trex, which will turn them into decking materials (see below). Paper and hard plastics are sold to manufacturers both in this country and abroad. Jamie explains, “the destination just depends on where the highest demand is, or where the best price can be found.” Much of the manufacturing of plastics is located in China and other Asian countries, so container ships returning to their point of origin are filled with our mixed recycling.That said, Jamie encourages consumers to contemplate the meaning of the slogan “Reduce, Reuse, Recycle,” and emphasize the first two sets of actions. “It is important to remember that the ‘Three Rs’ is a hierarchy. The act of simply tossing something into your mixed recycling cart does not automatically make you a ‘good’ person. You’ve simply out-sourced your problem. If you are truly interested in having an impact, start thinking about ways you can reduce your consumption, and reuse materials whenever possible.”Due to Jamie’s negotiations with Trex, Ashlanders now have a clear, concrete action they can take. Rather than throwing all soft plastics into the combined trash, we can separate our bags, bubble wrap, etc. into two categories of plastic: 1. clear or 2. containing some type of color (see Trex website for a full list of acceptable soft plastics: www.trex.com/recycling/recycling-partnerships/). Ashlanders can then bring these soft plastics down to the Ashland Recycling Center on Water Street at Van Ness (open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Saturday).Ashland resident, author and anthropologist Nina Egert has been a lay environmentalist since the early 1970s.

ANCHORAGE (KTUU) - Two brown bears were shot and killed in Eagle River Monday night by Fish and Game officials after they were repeatedly reported to have gotten into trash in more than one neighborhood. Surveillance video shows two brown bears wandering the Eagle Ridge neighborhood near Eagle River. The bears were shot later that week by Fish and Game. A Fish and Game spokesperson says the two bears were 2 or 3 years old – considered to be sub-adults, and not yet fully grown. The bears were shot at about 11 p.m. Ken Marsh, a spokesperson for the Department of Fish and Game, said. Marsh said in the same neighborhoods, Fish and Game has had to kill three different brown bears that had been getting into trash over the past two years. The two killed this week had been showing signs of becoming aggressive. Brown bears are much more dangerous than black bears when they get into trash,...

Giants. Today we'll tackle the always dysfunctional Washington Redskins.To note, we will not be talking about the positives of any of the Eagles' NFC East rivals, because, well, that's no fun. This will be 100 percent vitriolic. And yes, we'll (try to) torch the Eagles at the end of the series as well, though again, I'm not sure exactly how just yet.1) Bruce Allen is a snake and a bumbling moron“Bruce Allen is the personification of an NFL winner. Our fans know his heritage; we know his abilities. He is the right person to lead our club.”– Redskins owner Dan SnyderThat's what it says on Bruce Allen's bio in big, bold letters on the Redskins' website.Allen was hired to be the Redskins' GM at the tail end of the 2009 season, and he has been the head personnel decision maker ever since, save for the short tenure of Scot McCloughan, who Allen helped oust after two season (2015-2016) with the team. In Allen's eight full seasons with the team, the Redskins' record is 52-75-1. That would be a winning percentage of 0.410.On the "bumbling moron" front, Allen doesn't even know Kirk Cousins' name. [embedded content] I mean, it's not like he just misspoke, or got tongue-tied or something. He called him "Kurt" SIX TIMES, lol.Cousins ultimately bolted in free agency, for nothing more than a likely future compen... ( reasons the Redskins will be a dumpster fire this season)

Credit: Matthew Emmons-USA TODAY Sports (Photo: Matthew Emmons, Matthew Emmons)The Cowboys were embarrassed on their home turf at the hands of the Philadelphia Eagles Sunday night. They can lick their wounds for three days before taking the field again at AT&T Stadium on Thanksgiving Day.Five things to know about the dumpster-fire of a game -- or at least a second half -- Sunday night:It was close… for a halfThe Cowboys actually took a lead into halftime, as they have in three of their five losses this season. The offense had mustered just three field goals, but the defense was pitching a shutout after an opening-drive touchdown by Philadelphia. Cowboys cornerback Anthony Brown dropped an interception that could’ve opened the door to more points for Dallas before the break. Instead, it remained 9-7.But then the second half happened. Thirty Eagles points later, the game was final. Philadelphia gaine... (WFAA)
