SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) — State Sen. Matt Murphy is absent from legislative proceedings a day after he was injured in the annual lawmaker softball game in Springfield.
A Senate Republican spokeswoman, Patty Schuh, says it appears Murphy dislocated his kneecap and he's going to have an MRI. Republican Sen. Pamela Althoff says he may require surgery.
The Palatine Republican was hit with a ball in the leg during the fifth inning at a Springfield park. The game was temporarily halted and an ambulance took him from the scene.
The game is a tradition that matches up lawmakers from the House and Senate.

Yoga Coordinator for Life Time Athletic
Retiring from a professional athletic career with a desire to find something to fill the void of track and field, Stephen via the coaxing of a close yogini friend versed in the Jivamukti method, decided to take a yoga class. Having come from the athletic scene that was driven by competition, he went into class with the same approach and soon realized that this was not yoga. While visiting family in New York, Stephen made his way to Union Square, home of Jivamukti Yoga School, the "Mothership", and after attending his first open class he was hooked. A fire was ignited within him as he began to practice the Jivamukti method daily and instantly resonated with the integral approach that the method offers: combining asana with shastra (scripture), bhakti (devotion), nada (music), ahimsa...

The Little Car that Could by Crissy, Central California on 10/07/2003. Trim: 1997 Mitsubishi Mirage DE coupe, Owned 6 years.
Pros: Great gas mileage, very reliable transportation.
Cons: Not to be picky, but I don't like the way the passenger seat, when lifted into the forward position, must be puched all the way back before it locks into place.
Overall review: Excellent car. 109,000 miles and so far so good. This car has been cross country three times, in four fender benders and literally pushed to its limits. I have never had a single problem with this car. I bought the cheapest one available and there is probably not a better car for the price. I mean, I could have wound up with a Metro! Can't say enough good things about it.

Francesco (Franco) Battiato (born 23 March 1945 in Riposto, Sicily) is an Italian singer-songwriter, composer, filmmaker and, under the pseudonym Süphan Barzani, also a painter. Battiato's songs contain esoteric, philosophical and religious themes.
He is and has been for decades one of the most popular pop singer-songwriters in Italy. His unique sound, song-crafting and especially his lyrics, often containing philosophical, religious, and culturally exotic references, as wells as tackling or painting universal themes about the human condition - unusual subjects for pop songs - earned him a unique spot on Italy's music scene, and the nickname of "Il Maestro" ('The Master', or 'The Teacher').
Especially, but not only, at the beginning of his career, in the 70s and early 80s, his work was standing out sharply against the rest of Italian pop scene with sarcastic, provocative, and dark attitude and lyrics attacking ignorance, lack of professionalism, and the common expectations of popular audiences, including his own public.

Marine Husband and Wife reunite in Afghanistan.
CAMP LEATHERNECK, Afghanistan — She couldn't stop smiling at him, even when he wasn't looking.
Both of them were soaking up the last few moments together before they'd go their separate ways again. They couldn't even kiss or hold each other's hand, much less hug. But when the crowd left, she snuck in a kiss on his cheek, and all he could do was sigh.
This is why I hate senseless war.

Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli alleged Wednesday that he is the latest victim of the ongoing scandal at the Internal Revenue Service and that the agency is withholding millions of dollars owed to the state as a political punishment.
The accusations stem from a $1.5 billion settlement that Virginia and the Justice Department reached last year with Abbott Laboratories, which pleaded guilty to unlawfully promoting the prescription drug Depakote for uses not approved by the Food and Drug Administration. Virginia should have received $125 million for the role it played in investigating the pharmaceutical giant, according to the Attorney General's Office.
A year later, the IRS still has not released that money, Cuccinelli said. And the outspoken conservative and Republican candidate for governor said his past battles with President Obama's administration could be a reason.
The IRS is already under fire for targeting conservative groups like the Tea Party and delaying their requests for tax-exempt status.
"There's incompetence or there's malevolence," Cuccinelli said. "The level of incompetence here is so astoundingly high that it does become hard to believe that even a federal agency like the IRS is capable of that."
But the Treasury Department, in a letter dated Wednesday obtained by The Washington Examiner, noted that the federal government had ongoing discussions about the money with Cuccinelli's office and corresponded as recently as May 24.
In the letter, the department agreed to turn over $10 million to Virginia immediately and more than $100 million more once Cuccinelli provides a list of projects the money would fund, prompting Cuccinelli to claim victory Wednesday evening.
Treasury officials wrote that because Virginia's piece of the pot was so large -- three times the budget for Cuccinelli's office -- policy required them to "ensure that funds are used for appropriate purposes and in a fiscally responsible manner." Department rules say the money must go toward public safety.
Virginia Democrats called Cuccinelli's press conference Wednesday "a de facto campaign event" and charged that Cuccinelli should have shown such determination in pursuing Star Scientific, a supplement-maker with political ties to Cuccinelli. The Republican owned stock in the company, which sued the state over unpaid taxes, and accepted gifts from its CEO, Jonnie Williams, many of which went unreported for several years.

BOWLING GREEN, Kentucky (WLMI) Andy Burns blasted a three-run homer in a five-run third inning to propel the Lansing Lugnuts to an 8-3 series-opening victory over the Bowling Green Hot Rods on a sweltering Thursday night at Bowling Green Ballpark.
With the temperature over 100 degrees, the Lugnuts sent ten batters to the plate in the third inning to send Hot Rods' starter Parker Markel (Loss, 2-5) to the showers.
That was plenty of offense for Lugnuts starter Noah Syndergaard (Win, 4-2), who allowed just one run over five innings while striking out six and walking two.
Phil Brua (Save, 1) tossed the final four innings out of the bullpen in his Lugnuts debut. The sidearming right-hander allowed two runs on six hits while striking out four.
The Lugnuts offense posted 13 hits and all nine starters reached base at least once. Kevin Pillar was 3-for-5 with a double, two runs scored, a double, an RBI and a stolen base; Chris Hawkins broke out of an 0-for-19 slump with two hits in four at-bats with an RBI and a run scored; and Kevin Patterson went 2-for-5 with two RBIs and a double.
The second game of the three-game series begins at 8:05 p.m. ET on June 29th. Lansing sends Anthony DeSclafani (6-1, 2.72) to the mound opposite Hot Rods righty Roberto Gomez (7-2, 2.67).
Lansing will return home on Wednesday, July 4th for a 7:05 p.m. game against the Great Lakes Loons. The opener of a three-game homestand will feature LAFCU Fireworks. Tickets are available for purchase online at www.lansinglugnuts.com, at the stadium box office, and by calling 517-485-4500.

Table lamps
Table lamps let you fine-tune the atmosphere of a room in more ways than one. They give you additional light where you need it while also adding a bit of personality. Ours are available in a wide selection of styles to add a little extra colour, texture and light to your home, whilst not forgetting those all important lampshades too.

Table lamps to brighten up your life
Welcome to our table lamps, they come in lots of styles, sizes and materials. Winters are long and dark in Sweden, so we love lamps and light. Maybe that's why we have such a big choice - from modern table lamps made completely of glass, to more traditional ones with handmade paper shades. As well as adding general background light and smoothing out harsh contrasts, table lamps add a lot to the look of a room - even when they're switched off. Many of our table lamps have built-in dimmer switches, so you can adjust the amount of light depending on the atmosphere you want to create.
Find what matches your table lamps too
Many of our table lamps are part of a lighting series, so you can get other lights - like floor lamps or ceiling lights - that coordinate exactly. Check out our VÄTE or KROBY series. Talking about coordination, we also have lots of furniture that your table lamp will match too. Of course, you need a mix of lighting to get the right light for all the different things you do throughout your home. So it could be useful to look at our other lights too - like pendant lamps and wall lamps. When you buy table lamps or other lamps, check if bulbs are included. If not, don't worry - we sell these as well!

For all you lovers out there, past and present, hopeful and broken hearted, MxM has a rock n' roll valentine. A little ear candy preview of our upcoming EP Vivat Veritas, "Call To Arms."
It sounds best snuggled up next to your sweetheart in the garage.
Yeah, we know it's cold, but rock and roll is a harsh yet fulfilling mistress, so we'll be playing this year's Motown Winter Blast on Friday February 8th. Head on over to the Fathead Stage at 6 PM to see us debut a new song and a few of our favorite covers. It's free and we'll all huddle together for warmth.
Man, it sure is a good week for graphics at MxM Manor. First that ace sticker design yesterday and now this?!
On Friday, January 18th - Assuming the Mayans were wrong - us little Matchsters will be joining our pals Teenage Octopus, The Finer Things, and Bochnasty at The Blind Pig in Ann Arbor for a night of FUN! MUSIC! DRANKZ! And - for real this time! - NEW MERCH!
How can you say no? The poster has MUPPETS!
Presenting the new official MxM logo, design courtesy of Ryan Lynch (though to us he's always @RyanExport) at Gunslinger Design. THANK YOU 4eva.
Be the first to get your hands on these hella fine stickers at our next show with Teenage Octopus, The Finer Things, and Bochnasty at The Blind Pig in Ann Arbor.
Stay tuned and get updates by RSVP'ing to the Facebook event!
There are a lot of awful things about living in the Midwest. With winter right around the corner, all of us Michigan transplants are in a particularly dour mood about the state we call home at the moment. Sure, the weather here's no Nashville and the seafood can't hold a candle to Boston but we do have something other than that special water tower to call our "claim to fame" around these parts - We've also got an amazing music scene.
Sure, there's us, Match by Match, a duo that's kinda sounding like the freak love child of The Black Keys and The Civil Wars! (If you ask us! We'd link you to our new album but…. Y'know.) And there's also miss Amber V., our behind the scenes glamor gal manager and merch babe, who's been spending a lot more time than usual behind the computer lately demoing the scratch tracks for her Wizard of Oz inspired EP! She says it's a pop record but someone on the internet compared it to a choir of creepy kids singing Aphex Twins in a field so listen at your own risk.
The cacophony of the musical Midwest keeps on keepin' on once we skeedaddle past Match by Match Manor's doors. Here's a list of our top five fave Michigan acts (plus one bonus Chicago choogler) that always keep us movin' and groovin' 'round these parts. It isn't often that we leave the house to brave the arctic tundra but a show from any of these guys or dolls can usually do it -
Despite their age and despite the fact that one-third of the Ypsi trio lives in the D these days, Lighting Love still manages to be the strangest teens of all. There is something very adolescent about Lightning Love's music, and yet simultaneously, something deeply sad and upsetting. Their music is the sound of a girl (Leah Deihl) grappling with adulthood, while wholly unequipped emotionally to process mature relationships. It's something sweetly-damaged, yet not bitter, like pop music that's fallen down the stairs drunk. Their new record, (the utterly superb) Blonde Album, is pure power-pop joy which, combined with the lack of sneering irony, keeps them in rotation constantly at MxM Manor.
Us and NK go way back. For one, he is ubiquitous. For months after our arrival in Michigan, it felt like we were seeing new posters for Nathan K shows every few days. The man plays shows with a borderline compulsive zeal but never more than him, a guitar, and an endlessly complicated stack of loop pedals piled in front of him. There's a certain confidence and unshakeable faith in his approach that smooths out the rough edges of his voice and musical aesthetic. It's uncanny, watching him turn an awkward melody into something beautiful and swelling. His new record is a moody, engrossing affair and showcases the depth of his songwriting.
There is only so much that we can continue to say about Matt Jones to inspire people to love him as much as we do. He is extremely tall. He plays guitar like his fingers are dancing on ecstasy. He sings like a beautiful, heavenly angel. He has an uncomfortable obsession with the Civil War. His songs are gut-wrenching, the emotional equivalent of waking up in your car after a bender and trying not to think of the terrible things you might have done the night before or why you're covered in blood, or why the blood doesn't seem to be your own. We'd call him a "singular talent," except that he really belongs alongside dudes like Neil Young.
(Bonus Amber V. appearance at the end of that music video, ya'll! And that was before she managed us! Small world!)
We've been smitten with these electropranksters since their Ordinare EP, but "Must Land Running" is the jam of the millennium. I doesn't hurt they've added another one of our picks to their ranks (aforementioned Michi-bro Nathan K on guitar), but they seem to be having a good time mixing together the goofy, the poignant and the joyous with great, ridiculous results.
Now these scrappy boys are a new favorite of ours. Despite being a drop in an unending fountain of folk-influenced music that infects the midwest, The Hand in the Ocean does it with more flair, panache, and eccentricity than most. Three guys, one banjo, one guitar, and (increasingly with each passing show) great songwriting. They're masters of the bitter-sweet: Tearing, uncontrolled snarls give way to soft, expert harmonies. Gray says they're the heir to the theatrical, whiskey-soaked throne of Tom Waits. Amber says they're like the murder baby of the demented carnival of Man Man and the possessed gospel stomp of early Timber Timbre. Either way, the entire Manor approves.
Archie Powell and the Exports
(Oh, c'mon, you saw this one coming.)
Archie and the boys are HANDS DOWN one of the tightest, most well-oiled rock machines there is. Besides having unbelievably well-written tracks, unexpected philosophical lyrics, and a frontman who seems to be the reincarnation of This Year's Model-era Elvis Costello (yes, we know Elvis Costello isn't dead but it's one of them "metaphors"), the band consistently delivers a raucous, tuneful live show every time that make their flaw-free album sound like it was recorded in-person. No joke! Sometimes, it actually is just nerdy what huge fans of AP&E we are here. Great Ideas In Action hasn't left the turntable since we bought the vinyl when the band came to visit last month. We are all just pilgrims under the wheels of this power-pop juggernaut.

New flag eyed to champion cause of addicts in recovery
John Sweeney, left, and Marty Boldin, who both serve on the board of Hope for New Hampshire Recovery, hold the recovery flag in the Hall of Flags at the Statehouse on Friday. (COURTESY)
That's how Marty Boldin pitched his latest idea to John Sweeney, who serves with him on the board of Hope for New Hampshire Recovery. Both men have been in recovery for many years.
Boldin called Sweeney, a Derry artist who coaches others who are new to recovery, and asked whether he would design a flag. Sweeney didn't hesitate.
Hassan applauded the group's efforts.
"Hopefully, it will take off," he said. "We want to have a symbol out there to let people know they're not alone and that ... recovery is spoken where that flag is flown."
"Wouldn't it be a really great thing for restaurants and employers to have out there so that when people go to work, they're not afraid to tell their bosses they're in sobriety?'' he said. "Or that the reason they don't want to go to the Christmas party where everyone's getting snockered isn't because they're anti-social but because it isn't consistent with their lifestyle."
Sweeney has been clean and sober for 14 years. He reached out for help, he said, when he realized alcohol abuse "was literally killing me."
The Hope for New Hampshire Recovery board has another near-term goal: creation of the state's first recovery center, in Manchester.
Boldin envisions a place where people in early stages of recovery would find support and resources to help them stay sober, seek employment and build connections. He'd like to see the center host sober entertainment events, such as open mike nights, as well as education, training and other support services.
And while the board hopes to seek out any federal or state funding that could be available, Boldin said the plan is to make such centers, which he hopes will open in other cities as well as Manchester, self-sustaining. "At the end of the day, we want to make sure that these places, when they open, are able to pay their own rent and are not dependent on the winds of political favor," he said.
"I'm 26 years clean and sober, and I'm a trusted public servant who affects positively the life of thousands of Manchester youth every year because I live a clean and sober lifestyle," Boldin said. "And I understand not only professionally but personally the kinds of processes that people need to go through to get sober."

For the first time we're hearing from a woman caught up in a statewide operation to nab people selling animals illegally on the Internet.
Twenty-one-year-old Charley Ragland's Ford Mustang is pretty hard to miss -- aside from the cherry red color, the large "snake life" bumper sticker pretty much sums it up.
It's also the best way to sum her up.
She owns 14 snakes, which isn't a problem.
"I don't have anything restricted. I don't have anything venomous," Ragland said, but she admits she tried to sell five of them online on Craigslist.
"I was open and honest," she added.
She quickly found a buyer, but the trouble is it's illegal in the state of Florida to sell snakes without a license.
"All five guys came around my car, and I think they were surprised that it was little girl that had five snakes," Ragland said.
She was one of 33 people cited in Florida, part of Florida Fish and Wildlife's "Operation Wild Web."
"This was a joint effort from some other federal and state agencies in here in Florida, the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission Internet Crimes Unit was looking for folks who were selling different types of species without a proper permit," said FWC Community Relations Coordinator Katie Purcell.
Ragland says she tried to get the permits, but had little luck doing so.
Kathy Ragland, Charley's mom, says her daughter is no criminal mastermind and that this is nothing more than a mix up.
"She did a lot of research on how to take care of them, she's done a very good job on habitat and on the care and everything just dropped it on the license," Kathy said
Charley says the ordeal has been a learning experience.
"It just makes it all the more serious," Ragland said.
She has filled out the proper paperwork to sell in the future and has hired an attorney for the case. She is likely to pay a fine.
Ragland says she might now consider a career with FWC, along with helping educate others about the law.
"I want to get into it even more and make it a bigger business," Ragland said.

my owl pattern used in a very very cute jumper. my friend lindsey's son (from Lovecake.ca). how cute does he look???
I want one of these sweaters for my little boys.
This is Special Needs week, and I would like to take the time to talk about this very amazing little boy.
This is my brother Lyndon. He is 10 years old and suffers from Sturge-Weber Syndrome, Glaucoma, Sensory Integration, and a hard-to-pronounce disorder which makes everything that he says sound different inside his head from what is coming out of his mouth.
He is one of the strongest people I know. He has surgery at least 2-3 times a year, he has gotten poked with so many needles he should be a sponge by now, and he gets picked on and teased on a regular basis in school and still hasn't lost faith in people.
He now represents our state in the Special Olympics for horseback riding, hockey, basketball, figure skating, bowling, track and field, cheerleading, and probably even more that I'm missing. He is so proud of each of his gold medals, and I'm even more proud of him for earning them.
This last quarter he was on the honor roll at school. My mom cried because everyone always told her that she'd never see that from him.
I want you to be aware, that there are brilliant, funny, caring, and beautiful people in the world, and even though they may look or talk a little different, doesn't make them any less brilliant or beautiful.
My brother looks like a normal kid, but the way he speaks is a little different. It doesn't make his thoughts any more wonderful or the words he's saying any more thoughtful to him than anyone else. And his speech doesn't stop him from calling me beautiful or a princess every chance he gets. ♥
The use of the "r-word" is one that I can't tolerate because I've seen people call my brother that to his face, and I've seen how it hurts him. When someone calls him stupid, he looks at me and says, "Ashey, am I stupid?" Until you have had a sweet little boy look at you with hurt eyes and ask you such a question, you may never understand the impact your words have on people.
Please, at least make a conscious effort to try to see everyone for who they actually are, and not how they look or sound. There may be great people out there like my brother that you would never meet or know because you were skeptical about them.
These people are so loving and nurturing- much more so than they have a right to be. If other people treated me in such ways, I would turn into a cold person, but they don't. That's what makes someone with a special need truly special. Not their disorder, but the size of their spirit.
This Photo Is Banans of the Day: Sometimes you gotta let those hard-to-reach bananas go.
Well This Is Something You Don't See Every Day of the Day: Bringing today's unofficial theme of tats and tots full circle is a 13-year-old kid from Russia whose tattoo artist dad covered his arm with a sleeve's worth of ink.
How young is too young?
Definitely too young!
Let this be my baby-owl-child.
uwaaa! so pretty!
by su blackwell
i want this O:
This. WANT.
tiltyourhead: omgggg, sooo cute!
If this kid can smile, so can you.
Look at this boy's wide smile, if you think you have no need to smile, think about this photo, and think about this brave smiling boy.
This is a lesson for everyone just SMILE :)
It's so awesome that this little boy is so happy and smiling. At the same time it breaks my heart because it makes me think of my own 3 sweet boys. It makes me want to take them in my arms and never let go. I want to cherish every moment of life with them. SMILE and be HAPPY!

A.John Seekircher, owner
of Seekircher Steel Window Repair in Peekskill,
N.Y., responds: The best solution I've found
to this tricky problem is a magnetic storm window
offered by New York Window (347/538-2075), a
fabricator/supplier that specializes in the repair
and restoration of commercial and residential metal
In some cases, the company's magnetic storm
windows can be mounted directly on the interior
side of a casement window sash, so they won't
interfere with the window's operation.
Where a handle or window operator interferes
with this kind of installation, the company will
fabricate an auxiliary track that can be mounted to
the existing window; the magnetic storm then mounts
to the track.
The window is easy to remove and satisfies code
and egress issues.
It has a narrow 7/8-inch-wide profile and an
integral bellows (similar to the gasket found on a
refrigerator door) to account for atmospheric
pressure differentials, and it can be fitted with
acrylic, laminated, or tempered glass in various
Costs start at about $10 to $12 per square foot.
As you might guess, accurate dimensioning of the
existing window is important for these
custom-fabricated storm units.
The windows accommodate a couple of different
types of screens. There is a magnetic screen that
can be snapped into place on the same track. On
larger windows, a wicketlike opening built into the
screen can be used to access the window's operator,
while on smaller windows the screens can simply be
removed and replaced to open or close the
Prices for screens start at about $100 for a
typical 3x5 window.
For high-end applications, the company also
offers a rollaway screen; prices for a 3x5 window
start at about $225 or so.

Born in Pativilca, Peru, Acuña played in local bands from the age of ten, and moved to Lima as a teenager. At the age of eighteen he joined the band of Perez Prado, and in 1967 he moved to Puerto Rico. In 1974 Acuña moved to Las Vegas, working with artists such as Elvis Presley and Diana Ross, and the following year he joined the jazz-fusion group Weather Report, appearing on the albums Black Market and Heavy Weather. Acuña left Weather Report in 1978, and became a session musician in California, recording and playing live with (amongst many others) Paul McCartney, Joni Mitchell, Ella Fitzgerald, Elvis Presley, Jim Walker, Chick Corea, Whitney Houston, Plácido Domingo, Phil Keaggy, Sergeant Petter, Sam Phillips, former Weather Report bandmates Wayne Shorter and Joe Zawinul, Herbie Hancock, Carlos Santana, Antonio Carlos Jobim, Beck, Roberta Flack, U2, Al Jarreau and Don Moen (singer).

In the 1980s Acuña also recorded and toured with the Christian jazz band Koinonia, which featured session musicians Abraham Laboriel, Justo Almario, Hadley Hockensmith, Harlan Rogers, and Bill Maxwell. He played on Willy DeVille's Crow Jane Alley album and in 1987 he teamed up with Elvis Presley's TCB Band for the Roy Orbison TV special "A Black and White Night". He played percussion on Blondie's number one hit "The Tide Is High".
He has also worked as an educator at University of California, Los Angeles and Berklee College of Music.

Saif Ali Khan celebrates his 44th birthday today
Bollywood's Prince Charming, the debonair Saif Ali Khan, was, in the 90s, seen by many as a spent force. His name repeatedly featured on lists of failed star kids. But in the last decade, he's fought his way back and won in the end. Saif honed his acting skills, toned his body, and bounced back - to do better roles in better films.
Saif Ali Khan is now counted among the most bankable stars in Bollywood. With films like 'Omkara' (2006), 'Agent Vinod' (2012), Race 2 (2013) and 'Go Goa Gone' (2013), he transformed into B-Town's hottest property. However, the Nawab also holds the title of 'King of Romantic Comedy' after starring in hit rom-coms such as 'Kal Ho Na Ho' (2003), 'Hum Tum' (2004), 'Salaam Namaste' (2005), and 'Love Aaj Kal' (2009).
Here's a pictorial fact file on Saif Ali Khan, who turns 44 today.

An up-to-date look at free software and its makers
Create virtual 3D worlds with Worldforge, and launch Windows programs with the Wine-derived ReactOS.
The preparations for GPLv3, the first major change to the GNU General Public License since 1991, have made good progress over the past few weeks. The core issues, such as how GPL handles software patents, caused some discussion. And important decisions remain in other core areas. In a posting to the debian-project mailing list [1], Debian developer Florian Weimer suggested that the Debian Project become actively involved in discussions focusing on the new license. And there will be ample opportunity to do so, as soon as the FSF throws its first draft into the ring for discussion. Worldforge Worldforge [2] gives users a programming environment for creating fantastic 3D worlds. You can use Worldforge to create online role-playing games similar to the popular commercial game, Ultima Online. Each player slips into the role of a character who has to make his or her way through a computer-simulated world (see Figure 1). The players are free to interact, although they do have to keep to the rules for the virtual world.

UNDATED (WSAU) -- Wisconsin's Department of Natural Resources is joining a public and private effort to increase a certain type of recycling.
Cynthia Moore is the DNR's recycling specialist. She says they are stepping up awareness so more people will recycle plastic bags and films. "Most people are aware that they can recycle plastic bags, and we're trying to get the awareness out that not only can you recycle plastic bags, but there are many other types of plastic film and wrapping that you can recycle."
Moore believes part of the solution to getting more of these products recycled is making collection easier. "We're encouraging people to recycle, and we're also encouraging local retailers and other business operations to serve as drop off collection points."
Wisconsinites have been receptive to other types of recycling efforts, and Moore believes people will do a better job with bags and films if they just know what to collect and where to take it. "We've seen that when you get the word out, people do participate. I think in Wisconsin, we have a strong recycling ethic, and people are usually very willing and happy to recycle if it's easy and convenient."
Part of the new effort is to educate individuals and businesses about the types of plastics that are recyclable. Moore says if it stretches, it's probably recyclable. "Wrap for tissue paper, dry cleaning bags, bread bags, clean dry produce bags, so there are a lot of bags and a lot of wrap that you encounter every day that is very recyclable. The important thing though, is that it's clean and dry, and preferably does not have adhesive labels on it."
Moore says the key is to have clean and dry materials collected, since contaminated products have a low value and are difficult to work with. She says to keep other types of plastics separate, such as plastic bottles.
Along with shopping bags and food bags, most shrink wrap film and bubble wrap is recyclable as long as it's clean. Many businesses already collect the bags and films. The DNR website has more information about recycling.
The American Chemistry Council's Flexible Film Recycling Group and the GreenBlue Sustainable Packaging Coalition are working with the DNR to expand this area of recycling. Moore says a five week pilot program in southeast Wisconsin utilizing more collection points and a radio information campaign was very successful.
