I sell restored vintage lighting. What I love is bringing fixtures back to their original appearance. I dont alter them, add parts, change the colors, or anything. All my lights look like they did when first leaving the factory.If youd like to learn more, please scroll down below the item description. WHY MY RESTORED LIGHTS ARE SPECIAL. A NOTE (or two) ABOUT MY RESTORATIONS. Im very pleased to offer this rather extraordinary, and very high-quality. Of 2-arm Art Deco sconces!
My research on the sconces has proven elusive. I suspect that the sconces are French made and designed. They could be late 1920s. But definitely not later than the early 1950s.
They are, as mentioned, of very high quality, and in a league unlike any other sconces I have to offer and I have some very nice sconces! There is what looks like a. In two places (one place is hidden), and the numbers 34007 on the back.The sconces are, I believe, mostly cast brass. The candle covers that came with the sconces are brass tubes painted white. Most of the paint has flaked off, likely due to the heat of the bulbs. I cannot confirm if these covers are original or not. Please also note the original mounting buttons.
The sconces are 14-inches high, 9-1/2-inches wide, and they project 4-inches. The part of the backplate that would mount over an electrical box is about 2-1/4 wide by 3-1/8 high. So, if you are looking for a pair of truly knock-out, important sconces, this pair may be ideal.Wholly restored and with new wiring, this pair is ready to hang, and comes with all the mounting hardware needed! The fixtures accept candelabra base 60W bulbs.
The silver has been polished. It has not been lacquered. Sadly, the silk shades are not included. Happily, they are commonly available from in places like Home Depot, Restoration Hardware, and Pottery Barn (the latter two on-line even). The only issue is minor.
Two of the cone-shaped cups under the candles have cracks. As these face the rear however, they cannot be seen.
The sockets seem to be original (and in fine shape) with new wiring and paper insulators. The candle covers are new.
The silver plate looks very good (see images) with only minor areas of wear. PLEASE LET ME KNOW WITHIN 24-HOURS HOW YOU WILL BE PAYING.People that own, for example, a Colonial-Revival style home will naturally want Colonial-Revival style vintage fixtures. But a great many pre-WWII homes originally had fixtures quite different than one would imagine. Ive been in classic bungalows with original Art Deco fixtures, and recently I toured a Foursquare with original Spanish-Revival lights. All these fixtures looked very well.
My last home was a large 1915 Colonial-Revival. I filled it full of 1950s fixtures. The fixtures gave the classic house an unexpected zest. It was also common for people to update their homes by changing all the lights. So, your 1905 home may well have had all the lights replaced in the 1920s or 1930s.
If you had these lights in place you wouldnt dream of taking them out. Just make sure the scale is right. They restored a wonderful old home. When they tried to sell the house there was no interest. The market is lousy of course but the realtor said that several potential buyers wished the house still retained its original fixtures.That is when they contacted me. Because I specialize in whole house sets, I was able to supply a matched set of fixtures for every room. The buyers were flabbergasted at the difference.
They had an open house. For above the asking price. Best investment we ever made, they gleefully reported. I do love a happy ending.If the distinction is important to you see the box below for more information: A NOTE (or two) ABOUT MY RESTORATIONS. The Top Ten (plus one)!
Most importantly, I restore vintage fixtures. I do not renovate them.
There is a huge distinction between the two. Please see the box at the bottom of my item description for more information.
My lights are rewired and ready to hang; everything to do so is included. They also come with electrical mounting bars. You will thank me for this; its incredibly hard to find the correct size mounting bars for vintage lights.
Most electricians HATE installing vintage lights. They assume old, scary wiring, fixtures that will not mate with modern electrical boxes, and a whole host of other issues.
But electricians LOVE installing my restored fixtures. I make the whole process effortless. See #2 above, and I also re-wire my fixtures, and ensure there is more wire than really necessary above the canopy to easily connect with your house wires (electricians particularly bless me for this).
I even include the mounting screws and wire nuts! My lights feature original or vintage canopies (the cup that goes against the ceiling). I never use modern canopies as they are not consistent with the scale and proportion of period lighting. A modern canopy is easily recognized.
They are basically flat and quite thin (about an inch thick) whereas vintage canopies are like a cup shape and deeper (usually 3-inches or even twice that). The chain on most vintage lights is corroded and I can rarely re-use it. The problem is that readily available modern chain is thinner, smaller, and not the same shape as vintage chain. Imagine my elation when I found one supplier who still made true vintage-style chain. I use really lovely cloth-covered wire for all visible areas.If this supplier ever goes out of business I will have to shut down. I use new porcelain sockets instead of plastic. If porcelain sockets do not fit, I use new Bakelite sockets. If the fixture has brass sockets with on/off switches, I generally retain these distinctive components but with new paper insulators. When necessary, I forward special instructions on how to hang your vintage fixture. Youll know that if a problem should develop that I wont disappear! Don't Bother Looking Elsewhere.
If you think the photos are pretty, wait'til you see them in person! Exceptional product, service & value.
The 1930's Chandelier was amazing and in superb condition, better than new!!!!! As always, flawless service and beautiful products, carefully packaged. This guy really goes the extra mile. Ross is the best knowledgeable, witty, skilled.
Fast and the best packing I have seen. A real class act great experience start to finish! There aren't enough superlatives to describe quality and service. Fixtures even better than pictured! Always a pleasure, no worries, exceptional lights!!!We are recommending him to all of our friends! REMEMBER when CUSTOMER SERVICE was NO. This GUY still OFFERS IT. THE BEST PACKER in the. Among the most professional and committed sellers out there. It's a pleasure to do business with Ross. I keep coming back to his store. Great light you make everything so easy to install!
The restorations are obviously done with care and expertise it's always perfect. This light KNOCKS ME OUT! Best lighting guy ever; great lights; excellent communication; superstar; thanks. Absolutely first rate in every way.5 stars and then some! Stop what you are doing...
Two words with different meanings, and different results. A vintage light will bring back its original appearance. Renovating a vintage light will alter its original appearance. This can be done by changing its color(s), adding more colors than originally intended, and by combining parts from different fixtures/eras. For me, I simply love the process of restoration.
It seems like magic recreating something that has been near-ruined, eroded, or damaged. When each of my fixtures is restored I get such a thrill! Its like time itself has been reversed!
Now, if I could just apply this process to my aging body/mind! A few things Ive learned.
1 I work hard at respecting original finishes. When a finish is intact but faded, I essentially wash a new finish over the old. Thus, the original finish is still visible but looks wholly refreshed. In short, it simply looks as it did when leaving the factory many decades previous. Or, it's very common that 90% of the original finish is intact.To me, it seems a shame to remove all this just because a tiny portion is lost. So I recreate what is missing. And you can't tell that I did anything. 2 In order to restore a finish, its vital to use the same materials, colors, and techniques that were used originally.
3 Vintage fixtures used color sparingly and few featured more than three colors. 4 The original finish on vintage fixtures is entirely different than can be achieved with modern paints. Modern paints give the effect of a plastic film over the fixture whereas the original finishes were usually like a stain. The effect is quite a bit more subtle. 5 Vintage fixtures also have a subtle sheen, so I never spray on a shiny protective coating.
6 I dont refinish the back of my fixtures. By doing so it is difficult to really know if the fixture is vintage (there are usually paint speckles, scratches, and age marks). Once installed, the back cannot be seen but. Will know that your fixture is indeed vintage. 7 I also dont restore electrical components.Eighty-year-old electrical parts are simply dangerous. So my lights receive high-quality new sockets (usually porcelain), new wiring, and cloth-covered wiring for any visible areas. I do retain turn-key sockets wherever possible (but with new paper insulators). Ive been restoring lighting since I was a teenager in the mid-1970s.
One of my great discoveries was the finish material used by almost all lighting companies prior to World War II. This is a hand-applied and hand-burnished product and I use it on my fixtures that require new finishes. Significantly, the colors are also the same that were used originally. Because of this, I can place a wholly refinished fixture next to one with a mint original finish and you will not be able to see any difference.
Not once have they been able to tell the difference. There are buyers who truly want restored lighting and others who prefer renovated. For the record, I sell restored vintage lighting. Or: Who Is This Guy? As mentioned above, I have been restoring vintage lights since I was a teenager in the mid-1970s.An Interstate highway was being rammed through the city where I lived, and I ran (steps ahead of the bulldozers, and with my shag haircut flying) from one incredible building to another, and from one incredible house to another, and salvaged everything I could. Their garage was soon chock-a-block with what I thought were treasures beyond compare.
And which they knew to be useless flotsam. I did though once overhear my mom say: Well, at least hes not out doing drugs. However, when all their boring lights were systematically replaced with the most stunning lights they had ever seen and all for free, and rewired and restored they soon had second thoughts about the flotsam. I paid for new parts by mowing lawns! A brighter light soon proved too alluring though.
After a few excruciating years, the Gods decided to let up, and I found myself the proud owner of my own architectural design firm. It was the heady 1980s, the city was going through a spectacular revival, and I was overwhelmed quite happily, thank-you with one project after another. I set a record for designing the most apartments in. Today, I usually keep this bit of infamy a secret. Yep, it was a wild time!
Then came the early 1990s crash, and a desire for a calmer life. Beckoned, as surreal as this seemed. The peace I found on the prairie (golly, there really is a prairie) enabled me to get two books published can you tell I like the written word?
The rest, as they say. I do this because its effortless for me and you. Theres no guessing with my lights. You know right away if one of my restored fixtures is right for your budget. No worry that you will lose after waiting quite patiently for X days.
No worry that a Them will abscond with Your light in the last four seconds; the light you have your heart set on. There are likely worse things in life but at the moment I cant think of one.

By Lloyd Alter Lloyd Alter Facebook Twitter Design Editor University of Toronto Lloyd Alter is Design Editor for Treehugger and teaches Sustainable Design at Ryerson University in Toronto. Learn about our editorial process Updated December 11, 2018 05:52AM EST Share Twitter Pinterest Email CC BY 2.0. Escalade at Toronto Auto Show/ Lloyd Alter News Environment Business & Policy Science Animals Home & Design Current Events Treehugger Voices News Archive They need air for those big engines, but it's mostly about design. We do go on about how dangerous American SUVs and pickup trucks are with their big front ends, and how, as the Detroit Free Press reporters noted and were quoted in an earlier post, America's love of SUVs is killing pedestrians. We have quoted Michael Sivak and Brandon Schoettle of UMTRI who concluded that "a pedestrian hit by an LTV (light truck vehicle, which includes minivans, pickup trucks and SUVs) is more than three times more likely to be killed than one hit by a car – less due to the vehicle's greater mass than due to its height and the design of its front end." So why do they look like this? Ram pickup truck/ Lloyd Alter/CC BY 2.0 Jason Torchinsky picks up the torch and writes on Jalopnik that We need to talk about truck design right now before it's too late. He notes that it is just getting worse every year: "Truck grilles are growing at alarming rates, and becoming more and more intricate, Baroque, and confrontational." And it is all about design, rather than any serious question of function. We're in an alarming feedback loop of unhinged design, sales competition, and focus groups that's threatening to suck us all through maws of vast meshes of perforated plastic and into the swirling blades of a radiator fan. Lincoln at Toronto Auto Show/ Lloyd Alter/CC BY 2.0 I learned from Torchinsky that LTVs have to pass a tough SAE J2807 test, "a 100 degree Fahrenheit full-laden slog up the steep grade of the Colorado River's Davis Dam while pulling a trailer and with the AC on full blast." That needs a lot of moving air to keep that radiator cool. But how much? Generously-sized grilles have always been part of truck design—well, at least front-engined, water-cooled truck design—but what we're currently experiencing goes way beyond just having a big grille. The goal of modern truck grilles—especially the larger, Heavy Duty spec trucks—seems to be less about getting the required cooling air and more about creating a massive, brutal face of rage and intimidation. Ram on Toronto Street/ Lloyd Alter/CC BY 2.0 While the visual goal of big trucks has for years been to intimidate, I feel like now we're veering into territory where the desired reaction from seeing a modern truck is short, involuntary emissions of urine right into your underpants. He is right in that sometimes it feels that one is walking by a building rather than a vehicle, they are so tall. I worry about kids, about the aging baby boomers who are shrinking, I worry about the stopping distance on these massive things. Lloyd Alter/CC BY 2.0 I continue to wonder at how people can complain that distracted walking is causing the increase in the number of pedestrian deaths, when the proportion of vehicles sold that are pickups and SUVs is going up so fast that the manufacturers are not even making cars anymore. You get stuck on the grille of one of these monsters and you are dead. Surely that is having a bigger impact on the numbers. For scale, TreeHugger Bonnie with truck in Scottsdale/ Lloyd Alter/CC BY 2.0 We keep saying "driver not car" but vehicle design has a lot to do with it. As I have said before, make trucks and SUVs as safe as cars or get them off the roads.

Many negotiators have constituencies that must formally or informally approve an agreement. Traditionally, it is the responsibility of each negotiator to manage the internal conflicts and constituencies on his or her own side. Far less familiar are the many valuable ways that one side can meet its own interests by helping the other side with the other's "internal," "behind-the-table," or "Level II" constituency challenges. Sebenius (2013) offered a moderately theoretical treatment of this challenge. Moving from theory to practice and from simple to complex, the present paper builds on that work. It illustrates several classes of practical measures that negotiators can use to advance their own interests by focusing on the other side's Level II negotiations. Beyond tailoring the terms of the deal for this purpose (e.g., with "compensation provisions"), one side can help the other, and vice versa, via a number of devices, alone or in combination. These include a) shaping the form of the agreement (e.g. tacit v. explicit, process v. substantive); b) tailoring the form of the negotiating process itself (to send a useful signal to constituencies); c) avoiding (or making) statements that inflame (or mollify) the other side's internal opponents; d) helping the other side attractively frame the deal for Level II acceptability; e) providing the ingredients for the other side to make an acceptance or even "victory speech" about why saying "yes" to the deal you want is smart and in the other side's interests. f) constructive actions at the bargaining table informed by knowledge of the other side's internal conflicts (e.g., not escalating when the other side mainly speaks for domestic purposes); g) having the first side work with the other side to tacitly coordinate outside pressure on the other side's Level II constituents to accept the deal that the first side prefers; and h) in extraordinary cases, by directly negotiating with one's counterparts to design measures that thwart its Level II opponents.

A delightful read for fans of Donna Andrews and Juliet Blackwell, national bestselling author Kate Kingsbury returns with a third installment of her Merry Ghost Inn mysteries. If bed-and-breakfast owners Melanie and Liza, along with their laughing ghost tenant, can't find a real estate developer's killer, their own estate will end up with their next of kin.

Maundy Thursday Reflections
This year's Lenten journey has brought us to Maundy Thursday where we remember how Jesus gathered his disciples in the upper room and gave them the gift of remembrance through the Sacrament of Communion. As I look back over this past year, so much has changed and so much is still unknown. Maundy Thursday 2020 services for us were offered via Zoom from the little chapel at Presbyterian Community Church of the Rockies in Estes Park, Colorado. Maundy Thursday 2021 services will be offered via Zoom from the office and prayer space in our home in Carrollton, Georgia. So much has changed… so much has stayed the same… so much is still unknown.
It is with that unknown in mind that I find myself reflecting on that evening when the Passover meal was transformed by Jesus in the breaking of the bread and the sharing of the cup with his disciples. The account in the gospel of Mark shares the following: And when they had taken their places and were eating, Jesus said, 'Truly I tell you, one of you will betray me, one who is eating with me.' They began to be distressed and to say to him one after another, 'Surely, not I?' He said to them, 'It is one of the twelve, one who is dipping bread into the bowl with me. For the Son of Man goes as it is written of him, but woe to that one by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been better for that one not to have been born. While they were eating, he took a loaf of bread, and after blessing it he broke it, gave it to them, and said, "Take; this is my body." Then he took a cup, and after giving thanks he gave it to them, and all of them drank from it. He said to them, "This is my blood of the new covenant, which is poured out for many." (Mark 14:18-24)
A slow reading (Lectio Divina) of this passage offered me some insights as certain words and phrases shimmered for me. One of you will betray me… one who is eating with me… better for that one not to have been born… Exploring the third phrase (better not to have been born) reminded me of Job and Jeremiah.
Chapter three of the book of Job begins with these words: After this Job opened his mouth and cursed the day of his birth. (Job 3:1) Jeremiah said the following in chapter 15: Woe is me, my mother, that you ever bore me, a man of strife and contention to the whole land! (15:10a) Later in chapter 20 he reiterates this thought by saying: Cursed be the day on which I was born! The day when my mother bore me, let it not be blessed! (20:14) Job and Jeremiah were cursing the day that they had been born out of frustration and pain over what had been happening to them. Yet, the words in Mark 21 the words of condemnation came as a result of what Judas was about to do to Jesus.
If you took this phrase and lifted out of the context of the larger narrative, you would hear Jesus condemning Judas for doing something that he had, according to scripture, been ordained by God to do. If you do that, then the immediate reaction would be hatred. If Jesus had hated Judas, he would have kicked him to the curb immediately. Instead of doing that, Jesus broke the bread and shared the cup with all of his disciples, including Judas. In the gospel of John's account, Jesus even washed the feet of Judas along with the other disciples despite the fact that he knew Judas was going to betray him. What do these actions on the part of Jesus reveal? They reveal the depth of God's reconciling love which Jesus had taught about during his three years of public ministry!
Loving your enemies, praying for those who persecute you… those are some of the more difficult parts of Jesus' Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5:1-7:29) or the much shorter Sermon on the Plain (Luke 6:17-49). Jesus literally carried these two teachings out in the Upper Room and from the Cross. He shared the bread and the cup with Judas. He didn't bar him from the table, he welcomed him to the table.
In the history of my own denomination (Presbyterian Church (USA)) and the larger Reformed family people were barred from receiving communion. The rationale for doing so was found in Romans 11:27-28, Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be answerable for the body and blood of the Lord. Examine yourselves, and only then eat of the bread and drink of the cup. The original context for these words was because of the trouble the young movement had with the observance of the agape meal being turned into some sort of hedonistic and drunken party. These words have been taken by the church in its many forms through the ages to be words of condemnation, punishment, and separation. Yet I still think about the fact that Jesus offered the bread and the cup to the one whom he would have had every right to hate and call his enemy!
In his essay, A Body of Broken Bones, Thomas Merton ponders love and hate. "There are two things which men can do about the pain of disunion with other men. They can love or they can hate." (New Seeds of Contemplation, p. 72) Especially during these times of polarization, hatred, and fear I have been contemplating how Christ-followers can be the embodiment of God's love to this broken world. This is especially crucial during these times where White Christian nationalism continues to rear its ugly head, creating division and hatred based on fear in this country.
Merton continues with his thoughts about Christian love. "The root of Christian love is not the will to love, but the faith that one is loved. The faith that one is loved by God. That faith that one is loved by God although unworthy–or, rather, irrespective of one's worth! In the true Christian vision of God's love, the idea of worthiness loses its significance. Revelation of the mercy of God makes the whole problem of worthiness something almost laughable: the discovery that worthiness is of no special consequence (since no one could ever, by himself, be strictly worthy to be loved with such a love) is a true liberation of the spirit. And until this discovery is made, until this liberation has been brought about by the divine mercy, man is imprisoned in hate." (p. 75)
As we enter into the night where the bread is broken and the cup is passed, my prayer is that we will enter with our eyes and hearts open for something new to consider. For me, that something new is to reflect on the love that Jesus had for Judas and for those who wanted him condemned to death and executed on the cross. As I receive the bread and the cup this night, in my mind's eye I will be seated at the same table as Judas. At that table, may I discover anew the depth of God's love, mercy, and forgiveness. May I indeed find renewal in the depths of my being. Perhaps at the table the prison of isolation, hatred, and fear can be broken open, setting we the captives free. Then we can be freed to love as we are loved by God.

Achilles knows he is fated to die in Troy after he kills Hector. Near the city gates Paris shoots an arrow, guided by Apollo, into Achilles's heel. This is his one vulnerable spot, so it kills him. Thetis dipped the infant Achilles in the River Styx to make him invulnerable, but the water did not cover the foot she used to hold him.
Agamemnon and Menelaus give Achilles's arms to Odysseus, which greatly offends Ajax. He swears to kill Agamemnon and Menelaus, but Athena strikes him with a madness that makes him kill the army's cattle instead. When he returns to his senses, Ajax is so ashamed he kills himself.
The situation looks bleak for the Greeks, and Odysseus captures the Trojan prophet Helenus who tells Odysseus they need Hercules's bow and arrows to defeat the Trojans. These Herculean arms belong to a soldier named Philoctetes, left behind on an island during the voyage from Greece because he had a snakebite that would not heal. Odysseus and a few others go to the island to get Philoctetes. Back at the camp, a physician heals the snakebite, and Philoctetes wounds Paris in battle. Paris asks to be taken to his old lover Oenone, who can heal him. She refuses and watches Paris die, then kills herself.
The siege of Troy continues, so Odysseus hatches a plan to infiltrate the city. He commissions a large wooden horse in which he and some of the Greeks hide. The rest of the army boards their ships and appear to leave while the Trojans discover the wooden horse outside their gates. A soldier named Sinon tells Priam how he was marked for sacrifice to appease Athena and ensure safe passage back to Greece. He tells the Trojans he escaped, and the horse is meant as an alternate offering to Athena. The Trojans take the horse into the city in an attempt to curry Athena's favor, even though a priest named Laocoön and Priam's daughter Cassandra warn against it.
At night, the Greeks hiding in the horse open the gates for the rest of the Greek army. They lay waste to the city, killing citizens and destroying buildings. Achilles's son Neoptolemus (also called Pyrrhus) kills Priam. Aeneas escapes with Aphrodite's help, and Helen returns to Menelaus. Most of the other women, including Hector's wife, Andromache, are taken as slaves. Hector's son Astyanax is taken from his mother and thrown from the city walls.
Even though Achilles makes amends for desecrating Hector's body, he understands that his own fate is sealed. He is destined to die in the Trojan War, which is why his mother takes so many pains to try to protect him. As so many mythological characters learn the hard way, there is no avoiding fate. Achilles dies in a sadly anticlimactic way, shot in the heel by Paris's arrow. Achilles's great legacy in the modern world is having the tendon in the human heel named for him. That the vain and shallow Paris—who is almost universally disliked for causing all this destruction—brings down the mighty Achilles seems like adding insult to injury. However, as Paris is Hector's brother, it is sensible that Paris avenges Hector. Notably, Paris needs Apollo's help to get the job done; he lacks the skill to aim his arrow at such a small and precise target.
The twists of irony and fate are not lost in Paris's story. When Philoctetes wounds him with Hercules's arrow, Paris does not ask for Helen as he is dying. Instead, he wants to see the nymph he loved before Helen, Oenone. The decision may be purely self-serving, as Oenone knows how to save Paris's life. However, the request also indicates that Paris still has feelings for Oenone, which renders his relationship with Helen and the ensuing war completely pointless. Paris is undone by his betrayal of Oenone when she refuses to forgive and forget the way he left her, a fitting end to his part in the story.
The Trojan War ends not with a show of force but a show of extreme cleverness. Once the strong men of the Greek army—Ajax and Achilles—are out of commission, leadership falls to Odysseus and Diomedes. Odysseus devises the plan to introduce the Trojan Horse into the city, allowing a small group of soldiers to open the city gates and initiate a sneak attack. With the war at a stalemate for a decade and both sides weakened in equal measure at this point, the sneak attack is the only way to bring the war to a swift conclusion. The dishonor in this nighttime raid lies not in its sneakiness but in its extreme brutality. Edith Hamilton writes, "it was not fighting, it was butchery." Citizens are killed in their beds. No one is spared. The old King Priam is murdered in front of his family, then his wife and daughters are taken as slaves. Even Hector's son, still small enough for his mother to carry in her arms, is thrown from the city walls. Buildings are burned and towers torn asunder. The absolute destruction is necessary because it prevents survivors from amassing armies later and seeking revenge against the Greeks, but such rampant devastation will not go unpunished.

So you want to talk about fast fashion?
January 21, 2021
Special occasions and the arrival of a new season is always an excuse to purchase new pieces for your already tight-fit wardrobe. Many pay a visit to reputable and generic stores that fan-favorite influencers get sponsored by. The instant gratification of a new outfit is what many of us are addicted to, although I'm sure your last season skirt would still do the trick.
Fast fashion companies appeal to us, they produce on-trend clothing at a price we deem acceptable. Getting bombarded with emails about their "next big sale, that you can't miss." But everything has consequences, so what's so harmful about cheaply priced crop tops and jeans?
You might be wondering, "what even is fast fashion?" Defined as "inexpensive clothing produced rapidly by mass-market retailers in response to the latest trends," fast fashion reels in a substantial amount of money. In the U.S. alone, the fashion industry is valued at approximately 368 billion dollars as of 2019.
On average, fast fashion pieces never get worn more than five times because trends die out so quickly. People buy a large number of inexpensive pieces that are easily damaged and never worn again, instead of purchasing quality pieces from small ethical businesses or buying second-hand. This not only hurts your pockets but causes detrimental effects to our environment.
The consequences of mass consumerism result in a huge increase in the volume of textile waste. Fast fashion uses the cheapest workers, factories and materials they can get. If you took a moment to check your tags, you'd notice the common fiber: polyester. This fiber takes hundreds of years to degrade, yet more than 50% of clothes are made from this material. The footprint is almost three times more carbon dioxide than cotton.
Unfortunately, it doesn't stop at just polyester, on average 70 million trees are logged every year to create another fiber called rayon. In the U.S. alone, clothing landfills occupy more than 125 million cubic yards each year, and most of these clothes are non-biodegradable.
Toxic runoff from these factories seeps into local rivers and lakes, contributing to the contaminated water in many third world countries. The fashion industry comes in as the second-highest polluter of clean water. One cotton t-shirt uses enough drinking water to sustain one human for three years, which is 2,700 liters. While fast fashion contributes to landfill waste, water pollution, and our carbon footprint, it doesn't stop there. Fast fashion has become a human rights issue due to unfair labor practices.
Very few know about the Rana Plaza incident in 2013. Western companies and low wages helped turn Bangladesh into one of the most profitable countries for fast fashion factories. Courts in Bangladesh charged 38 people with murder in connection with the collapse of the Rana Plaza, which contributed to the deaths of 1,135 people and the country's worst industrial disaster. Demands for better safety in the world's second-largest exporter of fashion put pressure on companies working with Bangladesh to act.
Fast fashion impacts consumers themselves, encouraging the "throw-away" culture. More consumers have been calling out the ugly truths concerning the fashion industry, and the number of retailers introducing pseudo-sustainable fashion initiatives, such as in-store recycling schemes. It's been highlighted that only 0.1% of all clothing collected by charities and take-back programs is recycled into a new textile fiber.
Generation Z is helping to combat these issues. 74% of young adults prefer to purchase from "sustainably conscious brands" and are 2.5 times more likely to purchase second-hand clothing, as compared to other generations. The hope would be that the profound environmental crisis would inspire companies to be intersectional in their solutions. Helping to combat the issues that affect us all. This would look like including plus size and any other marginalized communities in the discussion.
I leave you will the followed advice quoted by British designer Vivienne Westwood "buy less, choose well, make it last."

Residential Care Homes – Ensuring Best Love and Care for the Seniors
Today, as I am in my 20's, I can obviously return to the days when I was a simple youngster. From making mud cottages to playing in the nursery, my life was brimming with exercises – generally entertaining and pointless. I actually recall the day when I broke a costly bloom jar in the drawing-room. My mom shouted from the kitchen and as she was going to slap me, my sweet grandma acted the hero. From that point forward, she was consistently next to me; from taking care of teen separations to raising a ruckus around town shopping center, she was my dependable friend.
Unfortunately, as time elapsed by, I became more youthful while she began becoming old. She was dependably excited about family get-together or some other get-together. Notwithstanding, last year, I saw that she slowly lost her energy and favored remaining at home – something surprising and worth taking note. It was then that I conversed with my folks about the fundamental consideration required by her. Since my folks are working and I'm generally occupied with all my work hunting plans, we were unable to consider a choice better than private consideration homes. At first, my great mother wasn't extremely enthused about it, yet we caused her to understand the need of additional consideration and help.
No one at any point wants to move vancouver assisted living out of the solace of their home and go to a spot that seems to be an emergency clinic. Because of private consideration homes, the patients partake in a simple feel, while profiting a wide range of help and extravagance. Especially, on the off chance that any old individual is experiencing cognitive decline or dementia, he/she gets the best treatment in senior consideration homes. They offer a sensation of rest and solace and facilitate their sensation of shift from their own house to a consideration home.
The greatest advantage of these nursing homes is that they bring a reviving and invigorating mood to the table for complete true serenity. The occupants have the freedom to invest energy as they need. While certain individuals love investing energy in the nursery, others love cooking or sewing garments. Regardless of what they do, they benefit the chance to cooperate with others and invest energy in a productive manner. This keeps them blissful and drew in – something vital for individuals residing in these consideration homes.
As individuals become old, they need a great deal of things – care, love, areas of strength for giggling regard and steady commitment to exercises. While we grow up and rush in the race of life, we frequently fail to remember that our elderly folks need some additional consideration, love and backing. Because of private consideration homes, the old individuals from our family carry on with a better and longer life.…

On disliking John Frame
Most recently I've been reading Frame's Doctrine of the Word of God, and it has really brought to the fore where I think things go wrong. For Frame, everything is revelatory of God; everything is a medium of God's word. "Clearly, everything that God has made, and every event that takes place, reveals God in some way" (p. 76). Now, this does not seem ever so clear to me. The logic behind it is that since the word of God is God (this identification is important), and since God is providentially in control of everything, everything is a medium of the word of God. Note that he is absolutely not saying that all things and events, being subject to God's providence, are potentially bearers of God's word; he is saying that in actual fact all things and events are media of God's revelatory word.
This means that Scripture is "one word of God among many" (p. 410), albeit a word which in some way corrects and refines our understanding of the other divine words. Frame is keen on Calvin's analogy - Scripture is like spectacles. Without it, we do not see clearly what is being revealed of God through nature and history; with Scripture, our blurry vision comes into focus and we can see God in all things. Note that "this is not to say that Scripture is more authoritative than the words of God in creation" (p. 411) - this cannot be said, because the word of God is God, and therefore speaks with equal authority wherever it is spoken (and it is spoken everywhere and in everything!) But Scripture does have the role of correcting our understanding and interpretation of God's word spoken in creation and history.
What does this mean for Jesus Christ, whom Frame acknowledges to be the living Word of God, as per John 1? Well, explicit discussion of this doesn't kick in until chapter 42 (on page 304!), because Frame follows a schema of creation-word, verbal-word, person-word. In the end, all that he seems to do with the idea of Christ as Word is to say that he is the mediator of all revelation - because he is the creator God and the Lord of Providence, as well as the teacher par excellence. It is particularly telling that in the next chapter Frame goes on to say that all humans are revelatory of God; Jesus seems to me on this scheme to be just the best of us.
What I really miss here is any sense of the cross in Frame's epistemology. Everything seems to sail on in smooth continuity: God in creation, God in history, God in Jesus, God in Scripture... There is no sense of Jesus as the light shining in the darkness; no sense of the revelation of God as that which decisively contradicts and overturns human wisdom. God is never hidden, he never veils himself. In fact, he is so clearly revealed in everything that Frame maintains not only that people can know about God from creation, but that each and every individual actually does know God. He bases this on an exegesis of Romans 1 which I reject. In Frame, I think it just serves as a powerplay.
And here's the heart of it: I think that what has happened in Frame is that the divine sovereignty has taken over from every other attribute of God. Everything collapses into providence: God's authority and control. It's no coincidence that Frame's multi-volume work is A Theology of Lordship, nor that he makes a slightly bizarre attempt to read concepts of lordship back into the divine name YHWH. It seems to me that for Frame all theology boils down to this: God is in charge. Now that's a truth, but unless it's read through the cross I think it's a truth which is hugely distorted. And I see this not only in Frame but in many of the neo-Reformed across the pond. In the end, it's a theology of glory, and not of the cross.
Oh, also, he says lots of nasty things about Karl Barth, which I understood much better after I read a bit about Van Til and how ridiculous he was.

Hm. I've never read the doctrine of the word of God, but I certainly never saw why Apologetics to the Glory of God was supposed to be any good. I thought it was hopeless - I seem to recall thinking that the idea of a biblical epistemology seemed as bizarre as a biblical meteorology, but it gets passed off as obviously an option. With respect to the lordship approach, I had similar thoughts - would be interested to compare notes with my own suspicions of frame's framing a few years ago apologetics and authorities. Similarly, my friend liam expressed similar dissafection with the spirit of the approach. Tacit rationalism if you ask me, in evangelical clothing.ReplyDelete
PS on a philosophical note, you may be interested in a brief anecdote. I recently had the pleasure of hearing Saul Kripke recently, he commented that back when he was a boy he went to these religious camps, and he recalled hearing statements - presumably influenced by Van Til's presuppositionalism - to the effect that "what people believe is just a matter of presuppositions - what logically follows from a set of basic principles you either accept or you dont by faith". He said even as a 14 year old boy, he thought that just couldn't be the case about logical principles - because unless you had intuitively understood or accepted/adopted principles of logical inference you would not be able to logically derive anything! Ironically, pondering on this insight developed into what is the deepest critique of Quine's scientism I've ever heard. Quine's scientism implied the possible empirical confirmation of logical principles - but Kripke's point was that the explanatory fruitfulness of accepting logical principles as theoretical axioms would be literally zero, unless you had intuitively adopted them.ReplyDelete
