WaxWrap.com – Sustainable Food Storage

Have you ever noticed how much plastic goes into preserving the food you buy and consume? Wouldn’t it be great if you could contribute to reducing the amount of plastic garbage that pollutes our planet while still keeping your food fresh?

Introducing Waxwrap.com, your one-stop shop for environmentally friendly, sustainable food storage!

According to the website The Spruce Eats, beeswax wrap is quickly becoming a popular approach to reducing the amount of waste households produce when preserving groceries and prepared food. Unlike disposable plastic wrap products which have one use, beeswax wrap can be used over and over again, thereby greatly reducing the used plastic wraps and freezer bags which end up in our oceans and elsewhere, endangering our diverse yet fragile ecosystems.

WaxWrap.com, Sustainable Food Wraps

Waxwrap.com has created an attractive selection of eco-friendly accessories such as beeswax wrap products, intentionally designed will both the wellness of their customers and the planet in mind. Their dedication to making a difference in plastic waste reduction is illustrated in stories such as the one they share on their site about Ally Mitchell and his inspiration for the creation of Ocean Plastic Pots, plant pots that are made from 100% rope and fishing net.

You can reduce plastic waste in your kitchen while still keeping your food fresh, thereby taking care of the people and the planet that you love. Visit Waxwrap.com today!

Website Review: Lifesplayer.com

(This is a paid review of the website Lifesplayer.com.)

Have you ever seen the movie, The Matrix, or its sequels? Perhaps you have pondered the likelihood that its premise might be close to the literal truth? Lifesplayer.com is a website that will introduce you to the idea that the life you live might be a fabrication created for the entertainment of one or more superior beings. With links exploring everything from the types of “characters” people have to the meaning they seek to find, visitors will be given every opportunity to question the veracity of their own reality.

Video games have become incredibly sophisticated, as Lifesplayer.com demonstrates with stills of a game called Flight Simulator 2020. With such sophistication only promising to increase, how simple is it to start questioning the reality of everyday life? This site encourages exploration of this topic in the context of Christianity, near death experiences, and concepts of an afterlife. Visitors who browse the entirety of the site will have food for thought on a topic that could change the way they approach life forever. And before you leave, there is even the option to purchase a souvenir shirt. When it comes to Lifesplayer.com, you can definitely prepare yourself to say, “been there, thought that, got the t-shirt!”

An Invitation to Peruse Pickford Studios

Pickford StudiosIf you seek to be not only informed, but intrigued, not just enlightened, but also entertained, not merely educated, but profoundly edified, then look no further than the writers of Pickford Studios who dwell at http://www.moviesforyourmind.net. Meet Mickey McClain, an eccentric Scotsman who travels extensively, but is quite content to keep the details of his many adventures to himself (with a fortunate exception or two).  Mickey’s editor, Evalyn Ryman-Stimme, is a political activist with the peculiar family tradition of being on the periphery of the defining historical moments of the times (a la Forest Gump). Author Meg Langford, the clever and articulate wearer of many hats, is arguably the brains and imagination behind the whole outfit.

Together the crew at Pickford Studios brings you an array of enjoyable titles.  Follow the adventures of the fattest crime fighter in the world or bask in vicarious enjoyment of the fry cook’s revenge.  Delve into the research of Meg Langford as she examines the history of lynching, directs a critical eye towards the late Jerry Falwell’s Liberty University, and tells a cautionary tale regarding the discovery of a dark side of American life. In addition to the diverse selection of fiction and nonfiction books for sale, readers can enjoy light-hearted blog posts providing everything from evidence of the existence of unicorns to good-natured rips on the Weather Channel.  More serious fare is offered on the Pickford Word where visitors can digest the opinions of this site’s authors on current events and social issues of the day.  All this, plus poetry and more await the curious readers who accept this invitation to check out http://www.moviesforyourmind.net!

Website Review: Moneylend.net

moneylenderdotnetThere often comes a time in life when financial need requires you to seek out a short term loan.  Sometimes there is nowhere to turn, or if there is, any number of reasons can leave you hesitant to involve family members in your financial trouble.  I have discovered a website where you can both get advice and research your best options for the money you need: Moneylend.net.

Moneylend.net has a blog which may give you the advice you are looking for when you need it most.  Featuring articles like “8 Reasons Why You Should NOT Borrow Money from Friends & Family” and “5 Top Misunderstandings about Payday Loans,” this blog’s advice contained within these and future articles will ensure you have considered all the options and a variety of perspectives.

Information on the particular services Moneylend.net offers can be found in the FAQ section and on a separate page dedicated to describing in detail the types and terms of loans which may be of interest to you.  But the best feature of all is the comparison service, where you can put in the amount you wish to borrow and the state where you live and get instant results of state-licensed lenders near you, complete with terms you can compare to ensure you get the best deal.

I entered $200 and my state and instantly received a list of ten different businesses where I could acquire a short term loan in that amount.  Moneylend.net tells me the type of lender, whether they require good credit, the fees they charge, and other information I would need to make an informed decision about borrowing.  And the site promises to add new state-licensed lenders to the database as the information becomes available!

Website Review: Feedandteach.org

FeedandTeach.org is the website of Feed and Teach Charity Organization, a new Irvine, California, based group whose mission is to improve the living conditions and educational opportunities of children in Afghanistan.  In addition to this primary mission, this organization also seeks to aggressively extend its humanitarian aid to improve other dire conditions in this war-ravaged county.  The website they are building exhibits touching photographs of people in Afghanistan and volunteers who seek to aid them.  With many noble goals and a plan for achieving them, it will be exciting to watch this fledgling charity and root for the overwhelming success of their stated mission.

FeedandTeach.org is passionate about helping those children in Afghanistan who have been so negatively affected by continuous war.  Naming Afghanistan as the 5th poorest country in the world, this organization laments the suffering in a country where more than two million people have been killed and many more injured in what is claimed to be the longest war in modern history.  In addition to helping children receive food and education, FeedandTeach.org reaches out to women in Afghanistan who suffer from abuse and violence.  They also would like to implement water projects to improve sanitation and give more people in Afghanistan access to safe drinking water.

Invoking the old proverb: “Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day.  Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime,” FeedandTeach.org speaks optimistically about a better future for the citizens of Afghanistan.  Their primary mission to give children in Afghanistan the opportunity for a quality education is their attempt to “teach a country to fish.”  For $30 a month, Feed and Teach offers donors the long-term opportunity to sponsor a child in Afghanistan and help FeedandTeach.org carry out that mission.  Visit them for yourself at http://www.FeedandTeach.org

Website Review: ACRIS Services for Safe Work Method Statements

I recently visited an amazing site, http://www.swms.info, and learned where you can go in Australia to acquire a safe work method statement for your business.  You know, the procedure you have in place for high-risk activity that identifies potential hazards in order to keep workers safe, whether it is working from heights, in tight spaces, etc.  The company is ACRIS Services.  Their site is easy to navigate, has clear pictures of products with clear pricing and verified payment options.  You will notice immediately that they have an impressive collection of free products!  Whether these products suit your particular need, or if they serve only to demonstrate the quality of their merchandise, you will be impressed.  ACRIS Services actually has the documentation you purchase put together by former workplace health and safety inspectors.  These guys know what to look for!

If you want to talk specifics, it is not hard to get in touch with a real person.  I was able to find contact information easily, and they even have a newsletter to keep clients informed.  The General Manager of ACRIS Business Group, Russ Stephens, oversees all operations, and he has a direct link to his LinkedIn profile on his website.  I chatted with the guy, and he seems really down to earth.  ACRIS Services really seems like a pleasant, knowledgeable group of people to work with.

If you need a safe work method statement for your business in Australia, I am sure ACRIS Services can help you find what you need.  With clear product information, easy website navigation, and friendly, available customer service, there is no excuse not to give them a look.  They even offer access to their entire document library for one low annual fee!  You can find ACRIS Services on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube, Facebook, or at their website, http://www.swms.info.
