Thai fashion designer Rungrot Chankrachang regularly takes delivery of thousands of discarded reusable shopping bags and, like intrepid travellers, these bags have a story to tell — a story that apparently only he can hear. Made somewhere in Europe, with the aim of saving the blue planet from plastic waste, these reusable bags ironically become trash themselves, either because they have been replaced or their place of origin, say Germany, where they are transported to poorer countries as a charity offering or simply to be disposed of. Armed with sewing machines, a team of tailors and bucket-loads of creativity, Rungrot cuts these discarded, dull-looking bags into small pieces and stitches them together to create a unique patchwork of colours, which is then used to create a stunning piece of haute couture. We go for reusable shopping bags to cut down on plastic waste, it makes us proud and gives us a pleasant sense of sustainability on our trip to the grocery stores. Irony and a touch of humour are the tools Rungrot uses to make his patchwork shirts, trousers, dresses and even jackets. He studied architecture at a vocational college, but found needle and thread far more inspiring ghettos.

Founded by Javier Goyeneche in , it uses breakthrough technology to create clothing and accessories made entirely from recycled materials, much of it fished out from the sea. Produced under the UTO Upcycling the Oceans Thailand brand, the pillow has been designed to ensure that every square inch of the recycled fabric — made from plastic bottles — is meaningful. Practical and portable, users can unzip it to remove the folded blanket inside. Created by Flying Squirrel Outfitters and NoNo Bags, it is shaped like a bottle hinting at giving new life to the plastic bottles we unthinkingly throw away. While plastic has changed the world, improving and adding convenience to modern lives, its very durability is proving a major problem.
It marks Ricch and Mustard's second collaboration, following the Grammy -nominated " Ballin ' ". Roddy chooses to spoil his lover while serenading her with memorable hook and witty verses".

When out on a date with a Mormon guy or girl, be very decent, courteous, and well-mannered.

If you want him - he is part of a medical school package right now, and likely will be for some time to come.

Trying to maintain a long-distance relationship with someone at home or attempting to date someone you meet while on mission are both distractions. It's gonna end regardless not trying to be a dick, but that is what is going to happen eventuallyso be smart and cut your losses before it gets harder. Additionally, you need to take stock of your beliefs and acknowledge they may change overtime. I think that if these two really care about each other that she should be told to take a moment and ask herself how she would feel if they break up over this and years later she finally researches her religion. They must refrain not only from sex, but also passionate kissing or similar physical contact, or any act that arouses such feelings.
