Who should I ask for help for this recycling project?
Who should I ask for help for this recycling project?
Ok, so at my high school we have about well A LOT of students and we throw away about 1,500 milk and orange juice cartons away DAILY! I want to try to recycle these and give them to a paper factory or something so the can make it into paper that we could use or something like that. Who should I ask. I've looked everyone but I can't find a paper factory anywhere. Can someone please help me! And just in case you need to know I live in Memphis, Tennessee so anywhere around that area would be grand! Please help me as soon as you can!

I would suggest you call the City of Memphis Solid Waste Management. Note #1: Milk and orange juice cartons are not just cardboard. They are lined with polyethylene (a type of plastic) to keep the liquids inside. As a result it may be more difficult to recycle them into paper. Note #2: Rather than recycling, why doesn't your school try to reduce waste in the first place? They could buy milk and orange juice in big 10-gallon jugs rather than little 0.5-gallon cartons. Then there would be a lot less packaging in the first place.

Dream Interpretation? Please Answer!?
Dream Interpretation? Please Answer!?
Well last night I was watching Police Women Of Memphis Tennessee. In my dream I was in the mall with all my friends and I was debating on whether I should talk/keep a friendship with one of my other friends. (who was not at the table) I just shrugged and went onto a different subject. Then all the sudden I was at my aunts house which was 3 houses down from mine. I was outside in the drive way by the mailbox with some boy on a bike. All the sudden I saw my garage door open and these kids my around my age were taking things in boxes in my driveway. Inside my driveway the boxes held my parents things and stuff from my room. I realized they were robbing my family. The kid next to me asked if I am going to stop them since they are from my school and I know who they are. But I wait a minute until I start walking over to my house. Their was a girl on my street and she happened to help the robbers. She saw me and grabbed my my dads baseball bat and tried to hit me. I pushed her out of the way and walked into my house. The kids there were stunned and just froze. I looked around and everything was tipped over and my dog was outside with a laundry basket over him. Everything was trashed and they didn't know what to do. I called the police but they did not arrive for a while. I started to yell at the kids and said words that if I were to repeat I would be grounded for a month and spanked till im raw. Still screaming the police came in and looked at the crime scene. I called my grandma and told her what had happened and she says that she is sending my brother back from her house in Florida. I walked up stairs and got my video camera and started taping. I tilted the camera to the criminals. They put their heads down in shame as they were put into custody. I turned the camera off and said (This will be great on the school website) I smiled and then woke up. I don't understand it at all. None of this made sense. And please nothing stupid or rude. Thanks. :)

Another really great website is www.dreammoods.com, I use it for all of my dreams. Just type in what you want interpreted, i.e. mall, definition, To dream that you are at the mall, represents your attempts in making a favorable impression on someone. You are trying to establish your identity and sense of self. The mall is also symbolic of materialism and the need to keep up with the trends, fads, and/or the latest technology.Hope it helps.

Will my truancy charges be cleared? or what?
Will my truancy charges be cleared? or what?
Hi. Last thursday I had two essays to write for AP English, I decided to not do them and to skip the next day. None of my friends wanted to skip that day, so I was on my own. I parked on a new neighborhoods street and slept all day. I was woken up around 12 by the Shelby County Sheriffs Department, charged with truancy, given a juvenile summons, and taken to my school. I was given three days of out-of-school-suspension. I am a straight A student, in AP and honors classes. I am rank 22 of my class of 600, havea 4.4 weighted GPA, 25 ACT. Actively volunteer in my community. And I also hold a job at Schnucks grocery store working 25 hours a week. I also play rugby for a local club team. Last year i had ~15 excused absences from school. I have no past charges of any kind. Now, I give you my life story to ask you this: If i bring say my report cards and work attendance report and argue that "I am a good kid, that made a really stupid mistake," do i have a likely chance of the charges being dropped? If not, what punishment should I expect, for me and my mother. Btw, I live in memphis, tennessee. Ive tried searching for similar cases/scenarios but i have been unsuccessful, thanks in advanced. Should I ask my teachers and choaches to write me umm.. recommendations or something similar that are in my favor? @patticharron "The fact that nobody skipped with you is irrelevant. I find it interesting that you include these details." It was just part of me setting the scenario. I dont think ill bring a lawyer. . I see your standpoint somewhat, however, I do not see it being negative to show a good report card. Of course i wont brag as much as i happened to do in this question. I asked the officer at my school, he said to bring my report card. I asked my coach whom is a TBI agent, and he said to bring the report card. These people are part of the law enforcement, so their judgement/opinions seems to be more reliable. If you dont mind me asking, do you have some sort of qualifications/past experiences for me to go with your suggestion?

I always find it interesting when someone posts about something incredibly idiotic s/he did and then follows this with a long list of his/her credits, accomplishments, accolades and lack of a criminal past. Get a lawyer. Go to Court and plead stupidity. Instead of pointing out what a great kid you are, focus on the fact that you made an inordinately stupid decision. The fact that nobody skipped with you is irrelevant. I find it interesting that you include these details. Here's the short version of what you did: I made a stupid decision to skip school because I had not done my work. I don't know what got into me. I behaved badly and I regret my decisions. That's what I recommend you tell the Referee or Judge. Do NOT point out what a "good kid" you are. That is a judgment call and it is not for you to make. Stick to the facts, which include your stupid behavior. I am very familiar with the Memphis Public School System. Given what the judge sees day in and day out, I think you have a good chance of skating on this one. However, if s/he is fed up by the time it's your turn, that's another story. If you go with a lawyer, your case will be heard earlier. If you go on your own, you will sit until the end.

What do I do if I lost a library book?
What do I do if I lost a library book?
I recently checked out two library books- 'Warriors don't Cry', and 'Farewell to Manzanar'. I live in Memphis, Tennessee. I am 12 years old, and I have lost the book 'Warriors don't cry'! I go to Craigmont Middle, and if I left it there, there is no hope for me getting it back! (You can forget about it!) I also think that I left it in my Auntie's car. I also could have left it over my grandmother's house. (I walk there every day after school). But, today was different. As we were walking, we just so happened to see my auntie about to turn the corner, so we called for her, and she gave us a ride there. It is a possibility that I left it at school in my 6th period class. I JUST CAN"T REMEMBER WHERE I PUT THE DARN THING!!!!! Will I have to pay EXTRA money when I pay for it if I don't find it? Will the library put me on probation for losing a book? WHAT SHOULD I DO!!!?????????

The books usually only cost 10.00 or so.

In our library it wasn't a big deal. They just asked us to donate some other kids' books. Or they might make you pay for them. Don't worry about. It's not a big deal.
3
Libraries are surprisingly cool about it. They'll ask you to pay the replacement cost of the book, with identical binding if it was a special library copy. And if you should find it, or someone else does and turns it in, they'll give you back your money. (Save the receipt.) You won't get any kind of 'black mark' on your record, no probation, no borrowing limitations. Stuff happens, and you've taken responsibility for the loss.
4
Since you're 12, I'm sure they'll let you off easy. Usually they just ask you to replace the book, or to donate some other books of equal value. Us growed ups are usually asked to pay a fine, but I'm sure you won't be.

ugh youll just have to pay for it :( sorries

First tell your mother about it and if you have the checkout slip, bring that with you when you go to the library. I don't know how the library is run in Memphis, but in my library where I work, we would put it in our computer on "trace" this way there will be no added late fees on the book and when you find it, you would just have to pay a small fine. If you can't find, lets say in four weeks you would have to pay or the book. Don't worry you won't be on probation for losing the book. Hope you find your book.
