New Online Shop Delivers Customized Apparel
Toronto (ContentDesk) August 4, 2005 -- Paper Moose (www.papermoose.com), caters to people who are looking beyond the cookie cutter trend by offering customers the ability to create their own unique apparel items.Created and designed by native Torontonian Monica Reyes, Paper Moose features designs that range from cute whimsical designs such as a sushi monster to the more offbeat designs -- a menacing knife wielding Venus fly trap plant being a prime example. With the company's no "one-size fits all" mentality, sizes up to 2XL are available on the site.
"Having customized apparel really gives customers a chance to get what they want." Reyes said. "Nothing makes an item feel more personal than being able to have a hand in the way it's created."Along with offering apparel, Paper Moose also provides a service where others can try their hand at silk-screening by getting their own design on a mini-frame.
Mini-frames allow the full exploration of silk-screening without the mess of creating the screen.Reyes has plans to expand the site with a non-apparel line as well as give people an opportunity to showcase their designs on shirts.
"I think everyone should be able to wear their own design.
It's like fridge art, except on your shirt.".

Few places, especially any as vaguely defined as "The Silk Road," are as steeped in picturesque myth as this collection of ancient trade routes from the Far East to Europe. Dusty trails, smelly camels, dangerous bandits, treacherous mountain passes - it just doesn't get any better than this.I love music that evokes visions of places, and I have long enjoyed Alexander Borodin's marvelous "In the Steppes of Central Asia" for its European-oriented musical image of the route. Now, with the Silk Road Project (www.silkroadproject.org), cellist Yo-Yo Ma and his ensemble give us the Asian translation, which is closer to the source. The Project, on tour with an eclectic mix of musicians from East and West, performed a collection of new and traditional works from...

History Of Mulberry Trees, ?Morus Alba,? ?Morus Rubrum,? And ?Morus Nigra?
Mulberry trees were well known in the ancient civilizations of the world. They were famous fruit trees, because of the delicious berry fruits that were abundantly produced by fast growing trees-loaded with huge green leaves that were eaten by livestock, along with the berries, and the leaves were used in the Orient to fatten silkworms for the silk trade. General Oglethorpe, in 1733, imported 500 white mulberry trees to Fort Frederica in Georgia to encourage silk production at the English colony of Georgia.
William Bartram, the famous early American explorer and botanist, described his encounter with mulberry trees near Mobile, Alabama, in his book, Travels, in the year 1773.
Prince's Nursery in 1774 offered for sale 500 white mulberry trees, ?Morus alba' and 1000 black mulberry trees, ?Morus nigra,' at Flushing, New York. Documents show that America's first President, George Washington, bought fruit from this nursery.
Mulberry trees were planted...
