Halloween decorations carry haunting message of forced labor
http://www.oregonlive.com/happy-valley/index.ssf/2012/12/hallow
The letter came in a box of Halloween decorations purchased at Kmart, but
for a year Julie Keith never knew. It gathered dust in her storage, a
haunting plea for help hidden among artificial skeletons, tombstones and
spider webs.
Keith, a 42-year-old vehicle donation manager at a southeast Portland

April 30, 2015 - 1:05 PM
By RYAN VAN VELZER, Associated Press
PHOENIX (AP) — Vexed by the litter caught in cactus and shrubs, one Arizona
city banned plastic bags on Earth Day last year. Two others considered
similar bans as part of a growing trend around the country to outlaw the
single-use of plastic bags at checkout counters.
Those efforts are now in limbo after Arizona lawmakers voted this month to

Structural Insulated Sheathing,一种是STYROFOAM™ Brand DURAMATE™
Plus Insulation。那个SIS似乎网上看用的人家还挺多的,虽然手按上去板会弯,但是里
面的那层似乎还是挺结实的,手指按不太出痕迹。另外的很多地方装的是duramate，感
觉就是泡沫塑料,手指随便一扳就扳下一块，指甲随便一压就刻出很深的划痕迹，估计
手指一捅就能把这sheathing捅穿了。房子的大部分区域,wood frame外面就是一片
duramate包上tyvek wrap，vinyl siding就是外墙了,感觉这种外墙完全没有任何强度
啊，这样弄出来的房子不就象帐篷一样的,结果这里人号称一拳打穿的drywall还是整个
