Church chandeliers made from bullet casings and cannon parts
Until today I'd never heard of
trench art. From the second link:
Pieces described as ‘trench art’ have the following distinctly different origins:
1. War souvenirs collected by soldiers or non-combatants during the war and during the demobilization period and modified in some way to serve as a remembrance of the war.
2. Souvenirs crafted by soldiers during the war.
3. Souvenirs made for sale to soldiers by other soldiers or civilians during the war.
4. Souvenirs made by prisoners of war in exchange for food, cigarettes or money.
5. Mementoes of the war made by convalescent soldiers.
6. Post-war souvenirs made for tourists visiting the battlefields.
7. Post-war souvenirs made by commercial firms in ‘trench-art style’.

Matt on BoingBoing's podcast. The question remains - will mathowie's voice sound like I imagine?
I imagine he sounds like a cross between Barry White and Barry Gibb.

Twenty-one years ago today
a plane crashed in Gander, Newfoundland. The flight carried
American soldiers heading home for the holidays, returning from a mission in the
Sinai. Called
the worst aviation disaster on Canadian soil, the crash killed the
248 soldiers and 8 crew members aboard. On December 16th, mere days after the crash, President Ronald Reagan gave a
speech at Ft. Campbell, Kentucky, to comfort the victims' families.
As time passed, however, some of the families demanded answers from the US Government regarding the circumstances of the crash. In 1989, Robin Tallon, member of congress from South Carolina, assisted the families' by bringing the matter before
Congress - and also sending a letter to then-Secretary of Defense Dick Cheney (scroll down page). In 1992, a
Time Magazine article addressed forensic evidence which supported the idea of an on-board explosion prior to impact, as well as the flight's connections to
Iran Contra and the terrorist group Islamic Jihad. This article also discusses the
book written on the crash by Les Filotas, a dissenting member of the air safety board. The question was brought forth again in 1993, with
a bill introduced requesting that a commission be formed to further investigate the circumstances of the crash.
As with any disaster with unanswered questions,
conspiracy theories abound.
To this day, many of the questions surrounding Flight 1285
remain unanswered. While the crash may never be fully explained, one certainty remains - for the families whose loved ones never came home for Christmas, the
twelfth day of the twelfth month will
never be forgotten.
