Oops – didn't get his posted intime for Thrifty Thursday, so Frugal Friday it is!
One big time hobby of mine is reading. I love to read, and of course the cheapest way to do that is with the library. But I also love to give, loan, pass-on and collect books. So for me the best think is buying used books.
There are a lot of ways to get used books. Englewood has a few used book stores, and there is also always the web. Amazon.com has almost any imaginable book, and often times it can be found in "like new" condition for a fraction of the cover price. BarnesandNoble.com has this feature too.
I usually try to catch the library's used book sale as well, but my favorite place to get used books is Goodwill (and ARC, DAV, etc.). Though you may have to do some searching, at Goodwill, the paperbacks are always $.99 and hardcovers are $1.99, unless you go on a day where their colored tag is 50% off.
Off the top of my head, I can think of more than twenty books that I've paid less than $2.00 for. Some have been quick paperback reads that I have passed on to others, some have been parenting books, hiking guides, or books I've needed to complete my childbirth education certification. I've gotten a few novels for Rick and even books as a gift.
I belong to a book exchange club where every month you pass on a book you've enjoyed to another club member. It great because I get to read a new book each month that I know a friend has enjoyed. And because I have a great stash of books, I don't mind the minor investment of passing on a book I bought at the Goodwill (plus I get to keep in touch with friends -some in other states even- in a different and creative way).
Used books are such a great way to save money and build your reading library. Books have so much life in them!

[T]he Holocaust transformed our whole way of thinking about war and heroism. War is no longer a proving ground for heroism in the same way it used to be. Instead, war now is something that we must avoid at all costs—because genocides often take place under the cover of war. We are no longer all potential soldiers (though we are that too), but we are all potential victims of the traumas war creates. This, at least, is one important development in the way Western populations envision war, even if it does not always predominate in the thinking of our political leaders.
Carolyn J. Dean, Interview of February 01, 2011
The dominant premise in evolution and economics is that a person is being loyal to natural law if he or she attends to self's interest and welfare before being concerned with the needs and demands of family or community. The public does not realize that this statement is not an established scientific principle but an ethical preference. Nonetheless, this belief has created a moral confusion among North Americans and Europeans because the evolution of our species was accompanied by the disposition to worry about kin and the collectives to which one belongs.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The vast majority of feature-length silent films made in America have been lost due to decay and neglect over the past 100 years, allowing an original 20th century art form to all but disappear, according to a study released Wednesday.
The Library of Congress conducted the first comprehensive survey of silent films over the past two years and found 70 percent are believed to be lost. Of the nearly 11,000 silent feature films made in America between 1912 and 1930, the survey found only 14 percent still exist in their original format. About 11 percent of the films that survive only exist as foreign versions or on lower-quality formats.
During the rise of silent films between 1912 and 1929 — before network radio or television — going to the movies became the most popular form of entertainment. Movie theater attendance in United States averaged 46 million admissions per week in the 1920s in a country of 116 million people, according to the report.
Historian and archivist David Pierce, who conducted the study for the library, said few defunct art forms have the resonance of silent films.
"It's a lost style of storytelling, and the best of the films are as effective with audiences today as they were when they were initially released," he said. "When you take away dialogue from a narrative story, it actually puts quite a challenge upon the creative people involved to tell the story entirely in a visual fashion. And it's that limitation, I think, which makes the films so effective."
Notable films now considered lost include "Cleopatra" from 1917, "The Great Gatsby" from 1926, Lon Chaney's "London After Midnight" from 1927 and "The Patriot" from 1928.
Films featuring early stars, including Buster Keaton, Charlie Chaplin and Mary Pickford still exist. The Museum of Modern Art in New York City, the Library of Congress and other archives have been preserving early films for decades. But the study notes that for every classic that survives, a half dozen have been lost.
Nitrate film stock's vulnerability to fire and deterioration contributed to the losses, along with the movie industry's practice of neglecting or destroying prints and negatives, Pierce wrote.
Of the major film studios, MGM stood out for its early work to preserve silent films. The studio also held "Gone with the Wind" and "The Wizard of Oz" in its collection and found ongoing commercial value in old films with theatrical rereleases and TV distribution, Pierce said. So the studio invested in its film library, unlike any other, and saved 113 silent films it produced or distributed. MGM also gave prints and negatives to archives, primarily the George Eastman House in Rochester, N.Y. Now, 68 percent of the studio's silent films still survive.
At the same time, Paramount Pictures, the early dominant movie studio, stands out for how few of its 1,222 silent-era features survive. The study noted Paramount had no preservation program until the 1980s, and now only 29 percent of its silent-era titles or fragments can be located.
Few if any other films will be found in movie studio vaults, Pierce wrote. Preservationists are now looking to foreign archives and private collections to identify any other remaining films that might be saved.
Librarian of Congress James Billington wrote in the report that the nation has already lost much of the creative record from an era that brought American movies to the heights of cinematic achievement.
"The loss of American silent-era feature films constitutes an alarming and irretrievable loss to our nation's cultural record," he wrote.
