WE THE PUBLIC OWNS THE AIRWAVES, SO WHY DID WE LET CORPORATIONS GREEDY GRAB AND CONTROL AND DOMINATE THE LAME STREAM MEDIA??

Bookish: Upcycled & Repurposed Books and Pages

I have always loved books, and have to admit I am a "book collector!" I don't just love to read books though - I love the feel of a book in my hands - it's heft, the texture of it's pages, the gilt of the artwork and lettering on an antique pressed cover...and of course, since learning to read in childhood, the thought of what wonderful secrets could be hidden inside. 
I love books.

But what about altering and repurposing books? 
Years ago the thought would never have entered my mind because my books - they were sacred to me. But after years of going to used book sales and increasing my collection to the point of ridiculousness - I mean, I had books that I bought for $1 whose pages were loose and falling out but they had fabulous antique Art Nouveau covers -  it was at this point I realized, there was no actual monetary value in this damaged book - the only value it had was sentimental value to me, due to its cover art. To most anyone else, it would have been considered trash.  This is the perfect example of a book worthy of recycling into something completely new. Check out these examples of recycled, repurposed and upcycled books and book pages and I think you'll agree that art can indeed be created from an old, damaged book.

i carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my heart)i am never without it(anywhere
i go you go,my dear;and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)
                                                      i fear
no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want
no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you
here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart
i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)

Mike Maloney - Debt Collapse & $20,000/oz Gold

Debt Collapse - $20,000 Gold - Mike Maloney On Gold and Silver & Economics .a must see for anyone holding any form on 'currency'! Mike Maloney inspired me to start a Gold & Silver Collection to preserve my wealth! Priceless information Thank you for your awesome wisdom Mike!! Your saving millions of people's financial futures! I bought his book in 2008...bought my first round of PM's after finishing. Since then, I have read it two more times. There is such an incredible amount of information...like many others, I feel indebted to this man for offering his knowledge.I figured that ounces of gold that the US government has to the True Money Supply is $23,734 per ounce.I don't think of the bank balances as money the same as notes and coins because if if the actual reserves aren't there, the bank defaults on withdrawal obligations. What fractional reserve does is increase the velocity of money. It increases the supply of credit and it's really bad.Inflation is not even a problem for people who understands that today's money is WORTHLESS, you DO NOT under ANY circumstance save MONEY, you invest money in value (eg. gold, stocks, real-estate and whatnot). The only money you should have is to cover your cash-flow,

Gold & Silver - The Greatest Wealth Transfer in History

From 1880 to 1914 the world was on the Gold Standard. From 1914-1944 the world had a mix of fixed asset currency countries and fiat countries. From 1944-1971 we had the Bretton Woods System. From 1971 until today we have had the Dollar Standard. We are starting to see some cracks in the current system. Get "Guide to investing in Gold and Silver" by Mike Maloney and read it as fast as possible! Always do your own due diligence but buy whatever physical silver you can afford NOW! You also need a few months supply of canned foods and water. There is so much preperation needed. Times are getting very bad very quickly in my opinion.

Why would anyone want U.S. dollar or Bonds right now.There is NO financial solution, they're only hope is for the FED to print more dollars which is deflation in dollar value & in inflation of all items. What's backing the dollar? NOTHING! There is NO GOLD the FED has admitted. The only thing the U.S. has propping up the dollar is OIL that's why there on a crusade all over the middle east & Africa. This is why there going to invade IRAN at the cost of nuclear war.

May your coming year be filled with magic and dreams and good madness. I hope you read some fine books and kiss someone who thinks you're wonderful, and don't forget to make some art - write or draw or build or sing or live as only you can. And I hope, somewhere in the next year, you surprise yourself. 
-Neil Gaiman
