"Let your used clothes get a second life..." That what the sign says on the bin. It's good stewardship, and good practice of community, to share the clothes with which we're finished. The volume of used clothing collected, each day, by the Salvation Army, Goodwill Industries, and other groups, testifies to our agreement on that.
But, where do we buy our clothes? Does it make a difference when we buy used clothing from non-profits who re-sell them? I buy much of my clothing, and clothes for my family from the Salvation Army Thrift Store, down the road. And, I'm always impressed with the quality. So much clothing is donated that they can afford to sell only the best.
When I make a purchase from Goodwill, the Salvation Army, or a similar organization, am I also contributing to community? Am I making a difference?
This is my second Polaroid shot with my Polaroid OneStep closeup camera. It is a shot of a AeroStat above one of the towers of a castle ruin that Alexander the Great built in Gardiz Afghanistan, which is now on FOB Good.
Left to right: Edward Cox, Patrician Nixon Cox, Julie Nixon Eisenhower, David Eisenhower at the Republican Party Convention in Miami, Fl., August 21-23, 1972.
The header “Miami Means Fight Back” contrasts the demeanor of President Richard Nixon’s children with the ongoing war in Indochina and the clashes outside the Republican Convention held in Miami, Fl., August 21-23, 1972. The photo appeared in the Montgomery Spark, Vol. 2, No. 1, September 6, 1972.
The protests at the GOP convention marked one of the last confrontations of the Vietnam War era.
Five months later, the last major national demonstration against the war took place at Nixon’s second Inauguration in January, 1973.

I have to research this for work. Weird. We might be making a virtual museum. I never thought I'd have to make a buff fonz guy and call it Yoshi Weezles and call it "work".
My second shot with my Rochester Optical 8x10 "Ideal" View Camera and a "Turner-Reich" Anastigmat f/6.8 Series II No. 5 lens made by the Gundlach-Manhattan Optical Company in a Bausch & Lomb shutter. The photograph was shot on Ilford Multigrade IV RC Deluxe Resin Coated VC Variable Contrast 8x10" Black & White Enlarging Paper. The paper was trimmed slightly so it's really about 8x9.8", this was necessary to get it to fit in the glass plate holder for the camera. Two sheets of book binding board simulated the thickness of a glass plate to try and get the distance between the lens and the paper close to being correct.
Shot with the lens wide open at f/6.8, and at 1/10th of a second shutter speed.
I scanned the resulting negative image and flipped it in Photoshop.

After hearing so much about this place, I created my avatar last night. I mentioned it to my director just as our youth svcs. librarian was reading the latest SLJ, with Teen Second Life on the cover, and I am charged with giving a demo in a week! This is my first visit to a library (in Cybrary City), but no one was around. I'll have to try again tomorrow.
