Back and forth
Speaking of waste batteries, it can be a big pollution! Within a month of landfill treatment, the metal shell of the waste battery will be corroded and perforated, and the harmful substances in the waste battery will enter a soil and water body, causing pollution to the environment. According to environmental experts test, if six tons of household waste mixed with a mercury-containing battery, when the waste landfill, the concentration of mercury in the soil will exceed the safety standard, it will not be able to grow vegetables; If the waste battery is mixed with household waste into the incineration plant, mercury, cadmium and other metals in it will be vaporized and discharged into the atmosphere at high temperature, which will pollute the atmosphere and affect human health. If a waste battery is put into the water, the water within a few kilometers will be toxic and undrinkable. Therefore, we should learn to collect and dispose of waste batteries. In my life, I often collect some waste batteries, such as: No. 5 battery, mobile phone battery, No. 7 battery and so on. I often put them into envelopes and put them into the bookcase in the living room. Puzzled by my actions, my grandmother would often say, "Hang Hang, what are you collecting these batteries for? "Is it green?" "Go green! If you study well!" Although my grandmother objected, I persisted, and if there were any old batteries, I still put them in envelopes and put them in the bookcase. In this way, I collected for two months, finally can dispose of these waste batteries. Today, we came to RT-Mart shopping mall, in a corner of the counter, there is a plastic box, which is specially collected waste batteries. I put the dozens of waste batteries into the box, I was very happy, because I found a home for the waste batteries. I really hope that if everyone collected and disposed of waste batteries like me, the land and water would not be polluted, and they would be greener and bluer.....

My family has a cat
My family has a cat, it is very lovable, so named "Bobo". Bobo's head is round and small, like a small ball. It has a pair of watery eyes, shining in the sun, like two shining black pearls. Its nose is very sensitive, even if it is miles away from a piece of meat, it can smell the fragrance. Bobo's back is as black as a fluffy crow, under the belly is white, white as snow, the two colors together, let a person feel it is so innocent and lovely. Bobo has developed limbs and can run as fast as a cheetah. Its claws are very sharp, if make more effort, will draw on the floor were bad Lai Lei ビ bobo's tail is long and straight, straight like a rocket was about to take off. Look! It is swinging its rocket-like tail to the mother who just got off work, and raised its forelimbs to her mother to hug. Bobo is a picky eater and loves meat. When it eats, it first touches and sniffs with its nose, then opens its huge mouth, snaps a bite, and devoutly eats. No wonder it's so fat. Bobo likes both the sun and a crowded place. Every time the sun shines, it will own runway balcony, find a good position, stretch the head and feet, close your eyes from time to time, enjoy the warmth of the sun, a comfortable and comfortable look, people can not help but laugh. If the sunlight moves, it moves with the light. You see, how clever he is! When there are guests in the house, he likes to join in. He will climb on top of you, kick you in the side with his legs, ask you to take your hand out for him to lick, or look at you and ask you to talk to him. If it's fun enough, it'll climb on your shoulder and play with your hair. However, when it plays tired, will walk back to their own small bed, lie down on the quilt, into the sweet sleep...

Rick Henry Christopher's Jazz Art

Some of these pieces are based on photographs, others are based on drawings, some are based on a few splashings of color. Then I go to work on the computer putting them through various apps. I've created more than 75 pieces. In this article I am sharing six.

Music 🎶
My first ever experience of music was Northern Soul. I would be around 9 years old in the “Care System “ as my mum couldn’t cope with us. My sister and I went to Holly House in the hills far away from “home.”It was pretty alright when you got used to the routine you had to follow. They had a converted Garage as a dance disco common room. And this was my real first memory of soul and Jazz. You can’t hurry love by the supremes was my favorite, as I had met a boy ( I know 9! I was infatuated) All my childhood if anything happened with my mum going out and us not knowing where or when she was to return would be a “Grunt “ from my stepfather that she had run away with a blackman. So I had been brought up to believe Black people were Bad. I had never met a black person until I went to Holly House and when I was dancing and singing to my track You can’t hurry Love , I swear my feet left the ground at one point. Northern soul and Jazz you couldn’t pull me away from it.
