           With many shops closed due to pandemic restrictions, Black Friday 2020 might have looked different from the frantic buying sprees of years past. But one thing remained the same: the relentless pace of fast fashion. Environmentalists criticized one UK retailer for selling a dress for 8p online. What are the costs of making garments so cheap? Well, consider an item of clothing we’re all likely to wear at some point – the t-shirt. Like the 8p dress, t-shirts belong to an industry responsible for 10% of global CO₂ emissions. Depending on the brand of t-shirt you’re wearing, you could be contributing to these emissions and a long list of other environmental and social harms. But to understand these impacts, we must explore the supply chain that creates them. Most t-shirts are made from cotton, which is grown in 80 countries by 25 million farmers who produced a total of 25.9 million tonnes of fiber between 2018 and 2019. Conventional cotton farming con...

CAAJU Music Box       Have you ever wondered when music began? Why did music begin? As I ponder this question, my conclusion considers that the earliest melodic strains were reproduced to mimic the ambient music of nature. Our society has become so restless and busy that we miss out on nature's sweetest sounds. I've always loved the music! Music can quiet the soul and calm the spirit. My earliest fascination with a music box came when I was just a little girl. A ballerina music box was given to me when I was six years old.

I would watch her twirl effortlessly as the music flowed from the base. These cute adorable boxes are one of life's little unexpected treasures! A wooden or porcelain box simply adorned is opened, the music begins and memories flood! Sometimes a new memory is made. Such is the ca...

Yet whether you opt for plain, striped or checked shirts, few men realise that the simple pleasure of putting on a crisp cotton shirt is something that has been enjoyed for at least the last seven thousand years. The cotton shirt as we know it is a relatively new arrival on the men's fashion scene, but shreds of this favored fabric have been found in Mexico dating back to the dawn of history - around 5000 B.C. A continent away, cotton fragments have also been found in the Indus Valley of Pakistan dating back at least five thousand years.

Then, in the 1200s, craftsmen forged metal waffle plates that looked like honeycombs. Dutch cooks were making "wafels" before the colonists boarded the Mayflower. Over time, the word wafel became waffle. French and Belgian cooks had their own version of the waffle. Cornelius Swartwout invented the American waffle maker in 1869. A ring was removed from the top of the wood stove and the maker inserted it. One side of the waffle was cooked, the maker was flipped, and the other side was cooke...
