my blood bag…

Blood bags are manufactured by a process known as calendering or blow casing. Extrusion is used to manufacture the PVC used in the production of medical tubing.

 Bloodletting (or blood-letting) is the withdrawal of often considerable quantities of blood from a patient to cure or prevent illness and disease. Bloodletting was based on an ancient system of medicine in which blood and other bodily fluid were considered to be “humors” the proper balance of which maintained health. It was the most common medical practice performed by doctors from antiquity up to the late 19th century, a time span of almost 2,000 years.

World Ocean Day 2011 @ Manila Ocean Park Philippines

World Oceans Day, which had been unofficially celebrated every June 8 since its original proposal in 1992 by Canada at the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, was officially recognized by the United Nations in 2008. Since then it has been coordinated internationally by The Ocean Project and the World Ocean Network with greater success and global participation each year.

Purpose: World Oceans Day is an opportunity every year to honor the world’s ocean, celebrate the products the ocean provides such as seafood as well as marine life itself foraquariums, pets, and also a time to appreciate its own intrinsic value. The ocean also provides sea-lanes for international trade. Global pollution and over-consumptionof fish have resulted in drastically dwindling population of the majority of species.
