Life in Trash
A place forsaken by men but not by God, a place of waste but also of profit. A place where most would think hope has abandoned....most but not all. Few find this place a paradise to feed their families.
This is from my series of the children whose life evolves in one's trash.

Could a wind turbine that sucks water out of the air supply enough water for the whole world?
A wind-driven device could provide an unlimited water supply by harvesting water from the air, says its Australian inventor.
But critics are asking if it's too good to be true.
Dr Max Whisson, a retired medical specialist turned inventor, says he has designed a highly efficient wind turbine that can run a refrigeration system to cool air and condense moisture from it.more

This 12" nylon spatula was used to flip a pancake that bore the image of Jesus Christ! The pancake is gone (I was hungry), but this authentic spatula is available for sale.The lucky winner will receive this "holy spatula" that probably has some divine residue on it from sliding under the Jesus pancake.
Look closely at the middle photo, and you can see that it bears some mysterious symbols, possibly some kind of sacred message. I'm no religious scholar, but I'm sure this had some kind of spiritual significance.
You can see in the third photo that this Jesus spatula is also dishwasher safe.
Is every pancake you cook with this holy utensil going to sport the face of our Savior? Who knows? But it's already flipped one, and that's more than you can say for the vast majority of spatulas you buy anywhere else.
Bid with confidence, and you may become the owner, the caretaker, if you will, of this one-of-a-kind spiritual spatula.
I would be happy to answer any questions you may have about the spatula or the since-digested Jesus pancake. Thank you for looking, and may God bless.

It has a multiplicity of meanings.
Because it is simple. –and that is one reason.
As a message it has been hyper-simplified; it is synthetic.
A Symbol utilizing symbolisms,
An Icon, or.. an expression with an iconography synthesized to the point that might seem meaningless - with no point.
Useless and absurd. –that is what it is.
The scene is said to have been painted by a person with a rare mental disorder. One psychiatry professor discovered a feature in this eerie painting that reveals the patient's disorder, but today we are not sure what feature holds the key to solving the mystery.
