Occupy Wall Street silk-screened T-shirts --
Can someone help me find the woman making silk-screen OWS T-shirts? (People would supply the T's and shed' silk sreen them at Zuccotti Park.)
She's no longer at Zuccotti Park and I'd love to know how to reach her so I can give OWS T's for holiday gifts.

They are EARonic iPhone 4/4s cases with photos of different ears on them. They're fun, goofy, and definitely a conversation starter. Designed by my daughter and somewhat of a hit on the blogosphere. A great stocking stuffer.

For the economy, the ecosystem, and the love of books--shop at a local independent bookstore.

Vintage tablecloths and kitchenware, too. It's a hype-free zone--no best-sellers, no electronics, just convivial customers, one of whom may just have an answer to your nagging culinary question.

I'm a Jersey Shore studio jeweler that listens to WNYC all day, while I make rings, pendants and earrings. I love the beach, where I walk each day and I love the city, where I go several times a month. You'll see both of these loves in my jewelry. My online store is easy to shop from. Since I'm close by, the shipping will be quick. Most important - I was actually able to support WNYC (and got the chico bag and the tote bag) because of sales. Your sales will support next year's contribution.
