Print Workshop: Hand-Printing Techniques and Truly Original Projects

This is a book for low budgets and high ambition. Read it and you will learn how to put images of things onto other things. You will start by rolling up your sleeves. Your shirt will be stained anyways. At some point, you will harness the power of the sun.
 
Go ahead, look inside. You will see that you do not need a fancy studio to print a T-shirt or a picnic blanket. There is no specialized machine required to print anything you want in any room you want. A mural, a dartboard, a deck of cards, these are all possible.
 
In a week or a month, you will wake up to find you know words like acetate and substrate. You will be comfortable talking about ink and shopping at military supply stores. Perhaps most important of all, you will be printing images of things onto other things.

The event features eight Project Runway winners and all-stars, some of which appear in the current season of the wildly popular TV show Project Runway All Stars.

“This is a rare opportunity for the public and Project Runway fans to enjoy this one-night only event and see eight of their favorite Project Runway stars up close and personal along the runway,” says Susan Stein, co-producer of the event and fashion editor of Palm Springs Life.

At Fashion Week El Paseo, The Stars of Project Runway will feature Michael Costello and Mondo Guerra, who helped set the event’s attendance records with their appearance in 2011. This year, six other Project Runway winners and all-stars join them for a night of cutting-edge fashion in their own runway shows.

The Stars of Project Runway Stars feature new collections by the following designers:

Michael Costello appeared in Season 8 of Project Runway and is now among the Project Runway All Stars. He began creating designs when he was only 4 years old. At 14, he designed his first couture collection, earning him a review and listing in Vogue magazine’s article, “Los Angeles’ Hidden Talent.” At 16, following his tenure at the Fashion Institute of Design Merchandising in Los Angeles, he took a one-year internship with Bob Mackie. Costello is now recognized for his own show-stopping red carpet gowns.

Mondo Guerra’s innovative style and bold designs won him praise as a runner-up in Season 8 of Project Runway and joining the elite Project Runway All Stars. Based in Denver, Guerra gained recognition for his early Technicolor collections. His Project Runway creations consistently placed him in the top three ranking, and he claimed victory for three consecutive challenges. The judges praised him for impeccable construction and styling, masterful mixing of prints, and fearless use of color.

Mila Hermanovski was selected from thousands of applicants in 2009 to compete in Project Runway, Season 7. She earned a finalist spot and showed a Fall 2010 collection at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York. Her collection was extremely well received by critics and potential consumers alike.

Heidi Klum is a client and the New York Post hailed it “Visionary.” Drummond has worked in all facets of stage, screen, and runway.

Kara Janx, a Season 2 finalist, has seen her career skyrocket and is now in the new season of Project Runway All Stars. Her designs reflect her degree in architecture and an innate sense of color. Her women’s collections include her killer kimono dresses in a multitude of unexpected color combos along with superb dresses and chic tops. The South-African designer, now a resident of New York, launched her bridal line in Spring 2011.

Leading Florida Importer Announces Online Launch of Newly Branded Cell Phone Website, iMobifone.com

Man on iMobifone

Boca Raton, Florida (PRWEB) November 24, 2011

Dovtel, LLC., is announcing the official online launch of their newly launched website, iMobifone.com. With the company’s home office in Boca Raton, Florida, iMobifone.com serves cell phone clients in the continental U.S. market who are concerned about the destruction of healthy brain cells by radiation being emitted by cellular phones. According to a recent report by a panel of experts from the World Health Organization (WHO), the panel determined that an increased risk of glioma, a malignant form of brain cancer, appears associated with wireless phone use.

After reviewing dozens of studies that explored a possible link between cancer and the ubiquitous hand-held phones, the experts classified cell phones as “possibly carcinogenic to humans” and placed them in the same category as the pesticide DDT and gasoline engine exhaust.

According to the company’s public relations department, it is estimated that 5 billion cell phones are in use. “The number of users is large and growing, particularly among young adults and children,” they stated. “As fathers ourselves, let alone avid cell phone users, we discovered that children’s skulls and scalps are thinner. So the radiation can penetrate deeper into the brain of children and young adults. Their cells are dividing at a faster rate, so the impact of radiation can be much larger. The challenge was to come up with a newer handset that would not only solve the radiation problem, but offer a handset device into the marketplace that was cool to use, hip and fun.”

It appears that iMobifone handsets, with their stylish retro look and feel, are fast becoming accepted as a necessary accessory to any mobile phone. Available in nine different colors, and adaptable to almost every brand and type of mobile phone, these classic handsets have been clinically tested to screen out 96% of emitted radiation, therefore no longer posing a hazardous threat to cell phone users worldwide. Instructions that come with the iMobifone have been printed in four different languages, including Spanish, French, German, and Italian.

The company further stated, “Perhaps that is why we’re seeing so many celebrities beginning to use extended handsets with their cell phones, not only for the retro look and protection from unnecessary radiation, but also for the pure comfort and convenience of holding a classic phone in one’s hand without fumbling with small cell phone units. And today, with so many people no longer purchasing land lines, the iMobifone is also the perfect home telephone when connected to your favorite cell phone.”

The company’s website is currently giving away a free adjustable belt holder to keep your iMobifone handy and ready to take calls in an instant. You can check for more information online at the website to see pictures, surprise celebrity videos and testimonials of handsets in use. Visit http://www.iMobifone.com.
