The use of hemp paper for use in bags or newsprint.

A bag is provide for receiving and holding contents at least as heavy and bulky as a portion of a large animal carcass. The bag may configured to be carried by a person and may including a containing portion defining a closed end, an open end opposite the closed end, and a side portion interconnecting the closed end and the open end. The open end may be configured for operation between a holding configuration for holding the carcass portion in the bag and a passing configuration for passing the carcass portion through the open end. The bag may further include a closure mechanism adjacent the open end for selectively closing the open end to provide the holding configuration and opening the open end to provide the passing configuration. The bag may also define a midline between the open end and closed end and further include a handling structure positioned on the closed end side of the midline.

A convertible beverage container package having an integrated cooler compartment is provided that is sized to contain a number of cans in a box shape during transit, storage, and sale and which can be converted to a portable cooler configured to receive ice for cooling the cans contained therein. The shape of the convertible beverage container package allows a compact package for storage and transport, which can be selectively expanded to receive ice. In some cases, the received ice may surround two or more sides of the beverage cans. In one case, the shape of the convertible beverage container package may direct ice inside the package to contact the canned beverages on at least three sides.
