Not long before, I saw a film called the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants'. It was shown in 2005 by Warner Bros. The film was major acted by four girls, and told the stories about kinship, friendship and love between them. The movie was adapted from a best-seller novel by Ann Brashares. The four girls knew each other since they were born, because their mothers acquaint with each other when they were pregnant during the same period. So the girls grow up together, and they share everything liking own sisters. In the summer of the girls' sixteen, the friends have to face separation at first time. They are unwilling to part, so they decided to go shopping before the sepatation. In a second-hand store, the good friends find a magical jeans accidentally. What is surprising is that the jean suits everyone of them regardless their variation in size. The surprised girls bought the jean and treated the magic jean as an object that contact with each other. They make it a rule that every one can dress the jean in a week and then deliver it to another in the month. With sending the jean by post, the girl should write a letter telling the next girl about her story in the past week. Four young girls spend an admiring summer holidays dressing the same flying paints. To the four good friends, communication is an easy thing before. But in the summer holidays, it is not so easy to contact with each other as the new condition and change. Sometime their information is lost or misunderstand. However when it comes to the most important thing, they will always find the friends who know them best, as well as find a way to share their experience, their moods and their humor. After the special summer, the four intimate friends realize the powerful friendship than ever. With the magic jean, some of them know the valuable of affection, some of them have love courage, some of them more determined to practice aspiration and ideal,and some of them more strong to face the lost. The difficulties of growing up turn to great because of good friends. The magic is not the pants, but there is someone company with you. It would be easy to say that the pants changed everything that summer.But looking back now,I feel like their lives changed because they had to. And that the real magic of the pants was in bearing all witness to all of this and in somehow holding them together when it felt like nothing would ever be the same again.Some things never would be,but they knew now that no matter how far they tralelled on ourtheir separate paths, somehow they would always find their way back to each other.Hand with that, we could get through any thing.To us,who we were and who we are and who we'll be.To the pants and the sister-hood, and this moment, and the rest of their lives, together and apart.(read entire article)

The Origin Of Jeans    Submitted as: kelly
The history of blue jeans actually goes back to 16th Century Europe. It's amazing that a product developed 500 years ago fuels today's multi-million dollar denim industry. Who would have thought back in Genoa in the 1500's that the material worn by Genovese sailors in their everyday pants would evolve to become the textile and fashion industry phenomenon that denim is today. The story goes that "jean" derives from the word Genoa. It refers to the material that sailors from Genoa used in their pants. This was a coarse cotton wool and linen blend. It originally came from Italy, and is evidence of the custom of naming a material for its place of origin. By the late 16th century, jean was already being produced in Lancashire, England. The composition eventually evolved to 100% cotton by the 18th century. On the other hand, the origin of the term "denim" can be traced to late 16th century in France, where a fabric known as "serge de Nimes" (Twill from Nimes) was very popular. Some doubt remains as to whether the contraction "denim" actually came from this French fabric or another twill called "nim", also used in France at the time. "Serge de Nimes" was a blend of silk and wool, which leads some historians to doubt if this was truly the origin of modern day denim. Either way, the history of jeans goes this far back in history. Both fabrics grew in popularity, denim being the stronger and more expensive of the two. The major difference between them was that denim was woven with one colored thread (the warp) and the other white (the weft), while jean was woven with two colored threads. By the late 19th century, weavers in America were making twills in the same fashion as the European denim, adapting to the more readily available and locally produced cotton fibers. The material had a reputation for being very strong and not wearing out quickly, in spite of many washes. Jean and denim remained two very different fabrics, and were used for different types of clothing. Denim was used mainly for workers clothes and jean for lighter clothes that did not have such high durability requirements. Now denim is everywhere. Denim is back on designer's catwalks, on accessories, home collections, and designer jeans by the hundreds of labels. Price barriers have been broken. Washes and finishes, embellishments, destroyed and distressed jeans, ultra low rise jeans, … the palette available to designers offers limitless possibilities, and the market appears to never bottom out. Now jeans are a very popular form of casual dress around the world, and have been so for decades. The history of jean continues.(read entire article)

Through The Western Novels To See Cowboy's Image    Submitted as: kelly
At the end of 18 century, when the beginning of the United State founded, American population mainly congregated in the Appalachian mountains edom. People known very little to the west, they though of mysterious mountains, atrocious beast and savage aborigines in the west. The west was completely barren in people's imagination. But before long, with the discovery of Kentucky, more and more Americans across the mountains and moved to the Midwest where is rich of land and settled down. This is the background of the western literature appear. Trace to the source of the earliest western novelist, James Fenimore Cooper is the founder undoubtedly. Between the 1920s to 1940s, Cooper published five novels in succession, which reflect the story that occurred in the continuously expanded process in the western frontier. In the later western novels, the footprint of pioneer turned to more and more widely. They lived a vagrant life. They not only rejected the the modern civilization of eastern, but also felt tired to the western life. In a word, they hated all the bound. As to speak, the pioneer novels concern about the pursuit of people yearning for a better life. A kind of novel is special performance of this topic, that's gold rush novel. In the development of western novel, the most significant breakthrough is the emergence of cowboy image. The novelist put the situation of western spirit facing urbanization, modernization and industrialization repose to the cowboy who are fearless, brave the wind and dew, rove all over the world. Cowboy is incarnated as free, they are completely given the ideal color. Along with the cowboy be stereotypes are gunner and drunken man. It is generally acknowledged, cowboy's absurb behavior reflect the unusually intuition and deep understanding of life, compared with the eastern urban youth. It is a glorious tradition in the western novels that compare the individual cowboys to their pedantic opponent. Not a few novels depict that the ‘urban folks' found them meet rejection everywhere. The beautification of cowboy is the necessary of romanticism. In the author's world, the wild free men are always more superior and decent than breeding outstanding dude. The earliest writer who written cowboy fiction was William H. Bushnell, in the 1960s. In his 《The Hermit of the Colorado Hills》, he created the prototype image of cowboy- a man wears leather chaps and thigh boots, as well as a pistol, and ride a red horse.

American Presidents And The Western Cowboy    Submitted as: kelly
Some interesting facts about cowboys are that they may play cards with people in drawing room, while they never have drink, either mint drinks. If they want to smoke, they only like pipe smoking and cigars, yet never smoke cigarettes. Besides, they are very conservative in matters of sex. Cowboy never shot in the back or the dark place, only in any possible way to kill or injure sentry guard unless they are captured. Independent, free, rebellious, straightforward, heroic, natural and unrestrained, as well as rigorous, intelligent, love adventure, brave and ambitious are the traditianal images of cowboy. William Savage, a historian of American, said that it is hard to imagine, if do not have this image of cowboy, what will the American culture, whether the vulgar or elegant like to be? It is too hard to find another image to replace them. Spaceman, gunner and superman once made a noise in the world, but they all could not take the image of cowboy down. The spirit of cowboy suits the early American Portland spirit to a large extent.People are reluctant to leave the western cowboy culture. In my submission, that is a reaction that people self-examine and escape from the material age. It is interesting that there is some kind of relation between American president and western cowboy or jeans. The former U.S. President Jimmy Carter ran for presidency wearing a pair of jeans in the race. After Carter president, a genuinely American cowboy boy Reagan ran for presidency too. The image of cowboy President shows a simple and unadorned presence of civilian politicians for him. Reagan is rated as the President of the United States who is richest in Americans temperament and star power. He turns to be an example followed by successors. President Bush is a promoter of cowboy's image too. Mr. Bush spent a long time in Texas, where the cowboy culture is popular. Once he won support with a friendly image of cowboy President. Critics suspected that Mr Bush, who was the governor of Texas and a presidential candidate at that time, wanted a place to act the cowboy for the benefit of the press. Although he was ridiculed by some media as reckless a cowboy of Texas, but Bush did not care it at all. His favorite way to receive foreign leaders was invite them to his own ranch in Texas. He likes showing his pasture to his guest, even barbecues Texas steak for his guest personally. Before long, the president Obama worn a pair of loose jeans to take part in the baseball all-star game at saint Louis. The fashion industry regards it as ‘mom jeans'. Obama said in his own defense, he hate shopping, and he thinks that these loose jeans are very comfortable. ‘I have to apologize for those who expect to see a in tight jeans handsome President', Obama said.(read entire article)
