Fr. James V. Schall on reading "Great Books"
2009-11-27 17:30:00 I have no doubt that what are called the “great books†should be read. I read Plato and Aristotle every semester with increasing awe. But the reading of great books does not do the trick, if I might call it that. What does the trick are books that tell the truth. And usually these books are very difficult for a student to come by. They are “notes from the underground,†to steal a phrase from Dostoyevsky. Thus, Another Sort of Learning contains many book lists. Most of the works recommended are relatively short. It is not all that difficult to get at the truth, once you know where to begin. Universities are not a total waste of time, but most graduates earn degrees while remaining confused about the ultimate things. About these latter things, little is to be found in most universities. Still, graduates have their whole lives ahead of them, if they can read.Fr. James V. Schall on "Another Sort of Learning" (The Catholic Thing October 9, 2009 )

2009-11-19 19:44:00 I didn't really see this advertised anywhere, but while searching Amazon for a couple different books, I noticed their Top 100 Bestsellers are heavily discounted at the moment. Most books are between 50-60% off the list price. Many of these books are new releases. You will find books such as: The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown Superfreakonomics by Steven D.

A Better Pencil
2009-09-19 20:07:00 By now the arguments are familiar: Facebook is ruining our social relationships; Google is making us dumber; texting is destroying the English language and now the Internet is melting our brains as we know it. We're facing a crisis, one that could very well corrode the way humans have communicated since we first evolved from apes. What we need, so say these proud Luddites, is to turn our backs on technology and embrace not the keyboard, but the pencil.No! The author of "A Better Pencil" explains why such hysterical hand-wringing is as old as communication itself. Read at Salon

Les Miserables
2009-09-17 10:55:00 Al Masry Al Youm from two weeks published a small report about an Egyptian construction worker who work on a daily basis from one site to another site independently. He is from those workers known in Egypt as ?Fa?ala?. Anyhow what is unique about this worker and deserved to be mentioned in the newspaper is that he is originally teacher , French language teacher who was graduated from university of Asuit !! Oh oui a university graduate !! He worked for a while as a teacher then left teaching because it was not that profitable and enough for decent life , it seems that now the hard life of independent construction worker is better !! This young man is not the only university graduate who took the same hard road , there are millions like him !! I do not know why I remember ?Les Miserables? when I read his story !!

1836 chapel painting revives Holy Grail quest

Regarding Farouk Hosni : Last Argument
2009-09-17 00:52:00 I think I spoke a lot along others online and offline regarding our rejection to Farouk Hosni?s nomination to hold the highest cultural position internationally as the UNSECO?s director general. Of course we have been attacked in the official press as if it were from patriotism and the love of Egypt to say Yes for Farouk Hosni , well it is because we are patriots and we are madly in love with Egypt , we say No to Farouk Hosni. We have been attacked in the official press because we are saying working against the Muslim and Arab candidate in the race despite the fact that candidate did not work for 20 years to preserve our Islamic Arabic heritage. We are saying No because we love our country more than Hosni whom for 20 years worked in successive cabinets for a suppressive regime in a sign for loyalty even the defense and interior ministers did not enjoy for all that time long. One of the things that made me sad is the fact that the controversy regarding anti-Semitism and burni...

Google Books Ties Up With British Company Interead, Amazon Accusing Google
2009-09-04 06:42:00 A British company called Interead (which makes an e-book reader, COOL-ER) has tied up with Google and thus becomes the first e-book store outside the US to partner with Google Books. It will now get to showcase over a million out-of-copyright books scanned by Google on its website Coolerbooks.com which can be accessed for free. According to the press release this makes Coolerbooks.com the largest e-book store in the world. Amazon Inc joins the Google rivals While things are going good for Google that doesn’t mean its lawyers are going to get any less sleepless nights. Amazon.com Inc is openly encouraging the US Supreme Court to reject the settlement that might take place between Google Inc and Authors Guild. The settlement is the result of a lawsuit filed by the Authors Guild 4 years ago on the count of copyright infringement. As a result, Google has agreed to pay USD 125 Million to create a Books Rights Registry. This is a place where authors and publishers can register their wo...

2009-09-04 05:18:00 Questioning the Veil: Open Letters to Muslim Women. By Marnia Lazreg. Princeton University Press; 184 pages; $22.95 and £15.95. Buy from Amazon.com, Amazon.co.ukLONG or short, sternly pinned or silkily draped, the Islamic veil is the most contentious religious symbol today, in the West as much as in the Muslim world. President Barack Obama argues that Western countries should not dictate what Muslim women should wear. France?s President Nicolas Sarkozy, by contrast, recently declared that the burqa, the all-over Islamic covering, is ?not welcome on French soil?. France?s parliament is now considering a ban on wearing the burqa in public. Marnia Lazreg, an Algerian-born professor of sociology at the City University of New York, feels passionately that Muslim women should not wear the veil, as both her mother and grandmother obediently did. She is particularly bothered by the trend of ?reveiling? in the West and Islamic countries, whereby the daughters of women who went unveiled decid...

Make Money Tearing Up Old Books and Magazines and Selling Their Pages on eB
2009-07-21 15:13:00 It's almost five years now since I began tearing up old books and magazines and selling their separate pages on eBay - and making very good profits! In fact those separate pages can fetch much higher prices than I might make selling the complete book on eBay, for reasons I'll tell you about now.The main reason is that many buyers exist, on eBay and elsewhere, for pictures or articles, maps or drawings, how-to guides and advertisements, and so many other products from vintage books and magazines. Some items are for research purposes, some just to read, others are for decorative purposes which framed or unframed look far nicer than any modern day poster or print.We're talking very early publications here, not recent ones, most profitable of all being heavily illustrated books and magazines from Victorian times which can be quite rare today and their contents worth a premium over those from modern day publications.Advertisements, for example, were often created by highly collectible...
