Every wonder what to do with those CDs that didn’t duplicate correctly? This.
This is the part when I get serious about the environment. CDs are considered to be plastic #7, a catch-all category for many different types of products. Typically, materials made of this type of plastic cannot go into curbside recycling programs. The plastic casing on tapes is the same kind of plastic, and the tape inside is not typically recyclable. Check out these 10 reuse ideas for CDs idea in case you can’t make your own gun.

Captain Beefheart’s Major Label Run Is Something We Might Never See Again
In 1970, Warner Bros. Records had an unusual philosophy: they’d sign artists and, instead of wanting a hit single immediately, they’d develop them over several albums. This way, James Taylor, Joni Mitchell, Little Feat, and Randy Newman got big career boosts. They also took a chance on Captain Beefheart, and although neither a hit single nor a hit album resulted, some very interesting music did. Fresh Air rock historian Ed Ward has the story.

Tylenol’s ‘Modern Family’ Ad Shows What It Means To Be A Family (And The Ad Won’t Be What You Think)
When were you first considered a family? We believe that family is not about who you love, but how.
Johnson & Johnson’s Tylenol today breaks a new #HowWeFamily campaign that celebrates the diversity of modern families — depicting gay, lesbian, immigrant and biracial families in a 30-second spot from J. Walter Thompson, New York.
“Because we’re a family brand, because we’re an iconic American brand, and we want to continue to serve families into the future, I think it’s important that we reflect what that family is today,” Manoj Raghunandanan, Senior Director of Marketing for Johnson and Johnson’s McNeil Consumer Healthcare, told Advertising Age.

HE NAMED ME MALALA Trailer Is Here
HE NAMED ME MALALA is an intimate portrait of Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Malala Yousafzai, who was targeted by the Taliban and severely wounded by a gunshot when returning home on her school bus in Pakistan’s Swat Valley. The then 15-year-old (she turns 18 this July) was singled out, along with her father, for advocating for girls’ education, and the attack on her sparked an outcry from supporters around the world. She miraculously survived and is now a leading campaigner for girls’ education globally as co-founder of the Malala Fund.
The documentary was directed by Davis Guggenheim, who previously helmed An Inconvenient Truth and Waiting for “Superman”. Filmmakers are asking that people “pledge to see the film” before He Named Me Malala arrives in theatres this October.
Introducing toc, a vertical record player
‘toc’ was created by industrial designer roy harpaz, with two main aspects in mind: easy use with a clean and simple design. It works with a linear tracking system to capture the good old analog sound and of course allows for easy operation via remote control – but also via LED touch buttons on the front panel. users can easily skip between tracks, thanks to a sensor that scans the tracks on each vinyl inserted.

The Best Response To A Scammer I Have Ever Seen
Scammers are increasingly more common these days. Unfortunately for one guy, his phone was hacked and his contacts replaced with the hackers information in a mean attempt to give them iTunes gift card credits in exchange for phone back. I wish I could have done with this guy did. So brilliant.
