I got in a hurry and did the same thing one day. I haven’t been able to restore it since. I have tried the method that others have recommended and have had no success… The thing is at least you can do a disk clean up and delete or retrieve any files that you put in there. Just start the disk clean up and highlight the recycle bin and view files…

The Expert answers:

I am not sure I understand. Is you start is still on your screen or is it gone also? If start is there you can go into programs then accessories then system tools and then do a disk clean up. It will delete files from you recycle bin. If start is missing also try Ctrl ALT and Deld and see if it does not pop up.

The Expert answers:

Here’s what you need to do if you have Windows Vista, if you have XP or Windows 7 then it may be slightly different.

Control Panel > Appearance and Personalization > Personalization

On the left, under tasks, you should see ‘Change desktop icons’. Click that.

Now tick ‘Recycle Bin’

EDIT: Ok, try this:

1. Right-click an empty area of your desktop
2. Select Properties
3. Click the Desktop tab
4. Click the Customize button
5. Click Restore Default
6. Exit all windows and restart your computer

If it still doesn’t work then edit your question again. 🙂

HOW DID U DELETE YOUR RECYCLE BIN!?
Any way i will help
download tweakui
it will restore it

The Expert answers:

If you´re deleting something from a disc that´s not C:/ then you can´t change it.
If you´re deleting something from C:/ Disc then go to the recycle bin and right click, then go to it´s properties. There will be an option to disable the recycle bin.

Hope it helped.

EDIT: Don´t download what the other guy posted, it may be a spyware or malware virus.
I mean, enabling the bin folder is easy enough to don´t need any other programs…

The Expert answers:

If you want to see the total size of the items in your recycle bin, open My Computer and open C: Make sure that “Show hidden files” is checked in the Folder Options in the Tools menu. Then mouse over the folder called RECYCLER. This contains all files deleted on that drive, and will give you the total size of all items in the recycle bin unless you have more than one hard drive.

The Expert answers:

Its not impossible,you need a software which i am too lazy to look for you,
you see when you clear your recycle bin you’re not deleting anything hahahaha you’re just making file invisible or forgetting the original location of the file,there are software that can help you see these invisible items but it will only work if you deleted the things recently for example my recycle bin is full and so i clear it item A can still be recovered and when i clear again item B can still be recovered but item A is lost forever

btw there are also software that can act as an extension of your recycle bin and make sure you cant find anything you have already deleted even recent objects

now,can you explain more elaborately why psp is nerdier than a phone?i mean it can practicly do everything the phone can better but doesnt look that cool……so is that it?

The Expert answers:

I don’t use tin or punch metal but I use copper in my jewelry making. You can buy copper at a metal recycle yard, I get scraps of copper flashing and wire. In my area, they charge about $4/lb. For usable copper at the recycle yard. You can also use electrical wire, like romex, if you strip the insulation off.

Copper melts over 1900 degrees so you need a torch to solder it.There are lots of utube videos to watch to see the technique. I use a regular plumbers torch, about $15 at a hardware store. You also need flux and solder. I spray on liquid flux for nonferrous metal, copper wire solder or silver solder (jewelry grade) from Santa Fe Jewelry Supply here:

http://www.sfjssantafe.com/baseitems.php?Gid=MB003&DepId=metals&ItemSet=Copper&r=type

After solder, you need to soak in pickle, which is an acid solution. The best source is PH Down (or PH Minus) from a pool supply. It is sodium bisulfate, which is the same as Sparex pickle from a jewelry supply but cheaper.

Then you will need tools to finish the metal. Various files, hammers, punches, stamps are fun to experiment with but you don’t need them all at once and they can be scavenged at garage sales and flea merkets. Polishing can be done with a dremmel and muslin wheel. I use White Diamond and Zam polishing compounds.

Have Fun! HTH!

Since, today computers are being used extensively in every field its better to find the uses for them and computers are being discarded heavyly.

The Expert answers:

It stays in your computer, but gets written over.

Think of it like a tape recorder. If you tape something on it, then go to tape again, it will bring you to the available (empty) place. Then if you want to delete something, you actually record “NOTHING’ over the spot. So it becomes blank and empty.

This is how computer forensics can still find things on a computer that you think are deleted. If the place it was stored is not written over again, they can still retrieve it.

As a user, we dont get to put the stuff in a certain place, the computer does that.

There are hundreds of links to the regulations that apply to business and industry.

Env Regs: RCRA, CWA, CAA

The cost: Start at approx $5,000 per permit. How many permits required depend on the industry and business. This cost can easily hit $100K per year in the blink of an eye for a plant with 300-500 employees.

If the business is a RCRA generator (a photography developer), then they will have to comply with all RCRA laws. It is not an easy process. An auto body repair shop will have RCRA and air permits (if they have a paint booth).

An industry will have to comply with Title V air permits if they are a huge discharger (much more than $5K per year).

New Problems: Industrial Hygiene in the work space (mold).

New Jobs: Environmental Coordinator or consultant for industry.

Industry trends: Looks like there will be a push to reduce emissions to air. Other trends include waste minimization.

Your best advice should be to hire a QUALIFIED professional environmental consultant to perform an environmental audit of your business to see what you lack.

Not everyone’s priorities. The symbols are there so those of us who care can take advantage of them. It’s like you going to school. If you want a good education, you can get it. If it’s as low on your priorities as recycling is, practice saying, “Would you like fries with that?”

The Expert answers:

I worked in plastic molding factory’s for a few years . Well it’s not a big issue to most people to see the symbol but the molds are small the same size as the bottle or object and it cost like $150,000 dollars to make a mold the more detail in the metal mold the more money it costs.

So, now you have a bunch of empty factories and jobless people and you have to have them pay more in taxes to recycle.

Economically, recycling is terrible.

The Expert answers:

When you do not recycle then all those things get put into landfills. There are several reasons why this can damage the air.
For one thing if you recycle a plastic bottle then that means less plastic has to me created from scratch. Which means less harmful gasses and other by products of the production process get released. Plastic is made from oil we are already hearing about the shortages of oil left on our planet.

When items go to landfills they also overtime will release harmful gasses into the air, soil, and possible ground water.

I have been to landfills only twice in my lifetime and I hope I never have to go back. I am not talking about the nice little trash collection sites – I am talking about the large landfills full of all sorts of items that could have been recycled which would have saved that land for other uses.
Recycling also provides jobs.

I believe it should be mandatory. People can learn to recycle effectively. The natural resources we have are declining.
Recycling will give more folks jobs in the long run, think about it.

Recycling gives us less trash filling up landfills, another declining precious commodity–land.

Yes. In answer to your question–yes, it should be mandatory.

The Expert answers:

It starts with money.

You can give incentives to those that are low carbon (lower tax rates, tax breaks, cash incentives) and/or penalize those that are high carbon (fines, higher tax penalties).

Then, there is an incentive for people/companies to put in the effort to become low carbon. Even if it is just to save money. This money is used to pay for the labor required to make those changes.

Imagine if we just threw our garbage on the streets and we were talking about getting out of this mess. There are jobs created to clean the existing mess, jobs created at treatment/landfill/recycling centers, engineering jobs created to come up with new innovations and lower cost solutions, as well as jobs created within each company to handle their own garbage.

This situation is one we are facing today. A lot of work will be required to make changes in every industry to become lower carbon and to manage and regulate carbon emissions. It is just a matter of funding those jobs.

At a craft fair, I saw a vendor used recycled barn wood to woodburn a portrait on. He did custom jobs by taking a photo and transferring it to the wood. If there are artists in your area, one of them may be able to use the woodburning technique or paint/etch his portrait (or him and your grandmother) onto a piece of the wood.
That would be a very personal gift!

If he likes fishing or something, you could mount a favorite item (fishing lure, old reel, etc.) on a piece. Paint the edges black or gray because where you cut it the wood will be very light colored. My grandfather loved poems. It would have been good to decoupage his favorite poem to the wood. Or a family heirloom doily.

The Expert answers:

In my view, the first sentence is fine, and I’m something of a pedant where grammar is concerned.

The only problem I see is that it’s not clear whether “her sister” refers to the daughter or to Mrs. Richardson. Most people would infer that that the daughter is meant, and this is probably the case. To make the sentence slightly clearer, you could place a comma after “daughter,” but this is a situation in which a comma is not absolutely required.

You could also remove the repeated “in”: “very much like her sister in appearance and temperament.”

Then there’s the issue of whether “family” should be singular or plural. Experts do not agree.

In the second sentence, you need parallel construction: “reusing them is another”.

The problem with these exercises is that many good writers do not follow the rules to the letter, because their meaning is generally obvious. However, you need to learn those rules in order to break them effectively.

The Expert answers:

I think there should be a law on recycling at least the basics. Plastic bottles, cans, glass and paper. If everyone would at least just recycle those we would be in good shape. It would be nice if everyone did what you said too.

Because not everyone recycles, its is becoming a big problem for the world as a whole. Though it still seems to be okay when you look around and don’t see a recycling bin nearby, you apologize to the earth and get on with your day. Recycling is becoming a big part of essential everyday life. Many organizations concentrate strictly on teaching the youth of our nation alone to recycle every time they dispose of a recyclable object. This is mainly because so many adults of today do not bother to recycle because they were not taught it to be that important as a child. But the meaning of recycling to so many today mean to put something in green, plastic bin. But it means so much more than just that.

Can you start it off from there?

The Conveyor belt will transfer the material from the truck. The large magnests will pick out the bits of steel because it is magnetic. Then, the conveyor belt will go into the first water tank and all the plastic will float to the top because the plastic is less dense than water. Then the skimmers will skim it out. The conveyor will move it to the sugar water tank and the glass will float to the top because glass is only 1.4 density and the water is 1.5 density. The skimmers will skim off the glass and the remaining product is the Aluminum.

The Expert answers:

We should recycle because the world has limited resources and by reusing them we won’t run out as quickly- it reduces the need for more raw materials. Also because if we didn’t , the landfills would keep filling up and where would we put all the garbage?!!?

“Recycling hotline opens in Shanghai

“Residents in four districts in Shanghai now can call 400-620-9500 for garbage recycling, the first time such a hotline has appeared in China, Labor Daily reported on Monday.

“The hotline, run by New Jinhua Rubbish Recycling Center, offers services to residents in districts of Changning, Putuo, Hongkou and Luwan, the report said.

“The service includes picking up old appliances such as TVs and washing machines, as well as glass bottles and newspapers.

“People can also call 6234-8790 to order the service.

“Both hotlines only provide services in Chinese.

“Clients can also call 5218-0366 if they have complaints about the service, the report said.

“The hotline is expected to expand its network to Yangpu and Xuhui districts in the first half of this year, the report said.”

Recyclables put out for collection are the property of the city, or whoever the recycling authority is, the moment they are put out for pick-up.

I get recycling, but I prefer re-purposing. I have a large piece of art that would earn you an easy A if you have creative tendencies…it’s a huge shadow box-style frame (maybe a 4’x3′ frame) with a really beautiful art piece that is made entirely of “garbage”…it’s gauze, cotton, and the like…built up in a 3-D effect (like a carved oriental rug) and dyed accordingly…mostly it’s floral, because that what the style I decorated in at the time I bought it, and while I don’t use it anymore (it’s been over 20 years since I got it), I don’t toss it because I still think it’s really cool. Imagine what you could do with crushed or cut aluminum cans and similar materials…art made out of recycled materials sells for big money…maybe think about a yard sculpture from recycled aluminum or something like that? No only would you get an A for creativity and thinking outside the box, you might start a new career for yourself!

The Expert answers:

I live in East Riding of Yorkshire England and I asked our local council this question 6 months ago because their literature on what to put in the blue recycling bins said items must be tied in carrier bags.

The Council eventually agreed that it is a none sense to buy bags just to put recyclable waste in. So we haven’t used plastic bags for the last 6 months in either of our recyclable/non recyclable item bins. We have never had a problem with food smells as we compost peelings and avoid food waste.

Ask your local council, they may not object to you not using plastic bags. They probably haven’t really thought about the issue yet.

The Expert answers:

Another way to reuse these is to use them the way that you used them when you first received them : go shopping again! Plastic bags do not decompose so a plastic bag 10 years after when you first used it is still the same plastic bag.
The easiest way is to use them all for shopping again when you go to the grocery store again or when you go buy clothing again.
Using them as garbage bags is also not a bad idea.

In the cycle of being environmentally friendly there are three steps,
REDUCE
REUSE
Recycle

I suggest that you first try to reduce the number of plastic bags that you require, this can be through steps such as using canvas bags for shopping, (canvas bags hold more and wont rip under a heavy load)
if you happen to forget to bring your canvas bags to the store the next best thing for those bags is to reuse them, either at the store again or as trash bags as you are doing now.
The final step is that if you don’t need them as garbage bags, and you have canvas bags for shopping, then you can recycle them. Safeway, Giant, and other grocers take these plastic bags and recycle them to make new bags.

I strongly encourage you to REDUCE your need for plastic bags by making the step towards canvas bags, some grocers even take a few cents off of your next grocery bill when you bring your own canvas bags.

No i don’t do it but many people should. Didn’t they say that plastic bags can last like 100 years or more as garbage. Besides the world wouldn’t let you shoplift with all the security available, especially walmart though it’s not impossible but you are not buying a cloth bag for that anyway. Really, who cares about what people think you are doing the right thing and sometimes it don’t seem like but you know you are. So Thanks for not using those plastic bags.

To resolve this issue in Windows Vista, follow these steps:
1. Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
2. Click Appearance and Personalization, click Personalization, and then click Change desktop icons.
3. Click to select the Recycle Bin check box, and then click OK.

Hey if you used a specific program to delete the recycle bin that would be helpful to know.

The Expert answers:

The actual Recycle Bin, if you did delete it from Windows Explorer, should regenerate when you restart the machine. If you’ve just lost the icon from the desktop, here’s how to get that back:

For Vista (and maybe W7):

1.Right-click on the desktop and select Personalize.
2.Click the Change Desktop Icons entry in the left pane.
3.Check the Recycle Bin checkbox.
4.Click OK.

That should do it for Vista. With Windows XP:

There may be a more direct way, but here’s the only one I know of:

1.Download and install a freebie from Microsoft called TweakUI (see below for the URL). Install it on the desktop. It happens to be a nice tool, by the way.
2.Run it.
3.Click the Desktop entry on the left.
4.On the right, a series of check boxes for desktop icons should appear. The Recycle Bin should be one of them. Click it.
5.Click OK.

That should do it for XP.

The Expert answers:

Many electronics contain lead, which is not only a potentially deadly substance to people, but also to the environment. Many are shipped illegally to Asian countries where they are melted down or disposed of improperly. I recently watched a show which showed the dangers of improper disposal of electronics, and it showed where many electronic products are ‘recycled’, which was pretty much a hell hole of toxic waste. Plus, children are doing most of the ‘recycling’ and dying from lead poisoning they receive from working with it everyday. In fact, they showed a disgusting stream of lead and chemicals and one of the workers said, “This is where the children swim and play”. So, environmentally and humanly harmful!

The Expert answers:

Reuse the major parts, drives, RAM etc. Reclaim lead and gold from the boards.

If you are really savy you can argue that B is not an advantage. It would shock people to find out how much energy it takes to recycle (transportation and melting down and chemicals used to get rid of contaminants) About the only item that is recycled on a wide scale bases that is efficient to recycle is aluminum. But the greenies don’t want to hear about it.

My guess is D the answer the teacher wants. D doesn’t make sense.

The Expert answers:

Only about 20% of Americans think global warming isn’t happening. Those are the Americans most out of touch with reality.

There’s another relatively small percentage of people who think that humans aren’t causing global warming. Most of them are uninformed or misinformed on the issue, and only believe this is the case because they want it to be true, so they accept the misinformation without question.

My thought is that the current global warming is primarily caused by humans, as illustrated in this climate model plot:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Climate_Change_Attribution.png

The evidence that humans are the primary cause is overwhelming, and most climate science experts agree on this.

If we take no action, in 20 years we’ll be starting to see some of the worst effects take hold. Droughts, heat waves, water shortages, coral reefs dying, etc. Etc.
