Introduction: A bottom end of town satire translation by Stephen Gripes from the Book of Alf, called “A little known version of history…spiritual not academic” ‘Cause academia read too many of their own books, funny books…you know, with no missing punctuation gizmo’s & spelling mistakes in them. So this is a special colloquial translation with spelling mistakes & missing gizmo’s for my friends in the bottom end of town and to lighten things up in the top end of town. If this does not do the trick, then take a trip to the Dentist and have a dose of laughing gas and re-read it, but not in the chair. You might end up minus a few teeth and a whopping big bill instead, like I did. And no, I’m not signing up with anyone. Least of all Hollydude & Co; they are in deep you know what with God. Along with days-of-our-rotten-product-created lives from the good ole U.S. of A. for upsetting Upstairs afternoon tea break and picture show treats. Plus, driving the primordial gods to the booze. With their commercial television programs, products, promo’s, bling, self-congrats and awards for their primordial concentrated gifts in the human being, that everyone goes potty over & worships. Anyways, I’ve also found the missing ancient manuscripts from the book “The Celestine Potholes”. You know, the manuscsripts that got lost in South America, or was it India? Anyways, it was addressed to J. Redsfields to translate, but I don’t know him…I’ve never met him, although I have read his book about ‘The Celestine Potholes’. Anyways, the Newspapers, Boobs @ Abs Magazine and other Comic Books would not publish my translation, ‘cause I’m not famous with my boobs and abs. The Commercial Television stations don’t want a bar of it, ‘cause it aint got no products in it. The BBC said to send it to the ABC for spelling corrections & syntax first, The Guverment said I’ve gotta become a Politician before they will read it and Science don’t understand it the way I’ve written it –neither do I. So the best place for it is on the Garbo-net…sorry, I mean the Internet. So if someone out there that understands my translations…and can read my rotten bottom end of town writing & spelling, then please let me know. p.s. Don’t know whether it’s important or not, but there’s something really weirdo at the bottom of this ancient manuscript, it says (i times d) plus the square root of (m) plus (LN times CM) equals H this-way-Albert”. Must be something to do with Albert Stein –or was it Joe Stein? Maybe it was Eff Stein, anyway some Stein –have included it in case it helps Academia and Hollywood…not forgetting the Pentagon either, as they know everyfing what is going on in the world first from the late night show on the commercial television. Plus, it says what’s faster than the speed of light?…the speed of thought of course…and that’s really weirdo. `Cause every one knows that the speed of light is the fastest thing in the Universe. At least that’s what it says in all the funny science books that I pinched, sorry, I mean borrowed from the library. You know, E equals MC squared or somefing, not T equals PP squared to infinity, like what Alfiewhatsitallabout says in his articles. Anyways, youse got the brains, so work it out and post me back the answer…so I can get some sleep. p.p.s. There’s a load more here –manuscripts that is. So I’ll go a paste a few up on some notice-boards down town, just to keep the ‘speed of thought’ ball rolling while youse sort it all out (and my ‘orrible spelling) and I can translate the rest of the manuscripts into good English and good American…for the Pentagon. Plus, the one I’m on at the moment don’t make sense at all –so I’ll have to go and see the ‘Boss’ about it on the way –after my tea break that is. Signed the thinker…you know, that unemployed Greek bloke on the dole? Counter signed concerned Citizen…no, confused citizen Stephen son of Alf @ www.alfsworldgripes.com Right here we go… Once upon a time long long ago, during the ‘golden age’ of the ancient world and before money, politicians, celebrities and Hollybug were invented and things went to pot, mankind once lived in harmony with Nature, the animals and themselves…hard to believe eh? So too, a special ceremony was always performed at the equinoxes, i.e. the four seasons junction points. A spiritual ceremony to acknowledge the divinity of the Laws of Nature, that structure and evolve everything in Creation and create order out of chaos in life. In addition, when the females of Royal lineage of the rulers of those days…who were very nice people by the way –not like in Hollynud and Co, became fertile and ready for motherhood, it was considered an honour to seek the initial act of copulation from the deities…this is where it gets interesting. Q:Who were the deities? A: They were the physical manifestation of the Gods of Heaven.Q: Wow! so how did they get here then? `Cause this ain’t heaven, except for all the Media created winners living it up in the top end of town You know, that live in the television & movies, newspapers and I-love-me glossy magazines full of saturated products, boobs & abs and skinny fashion models on a catwalk trip to product la la land. A: Well they didn’t get here in space ships, flying saucers, teacups or the pen of science fiction writers on Prozac –sorry about that, I couldn’t resist it. No, they manifested through the spiritual workings of the divinity of the Laws of Nature. Spiritual laws that were in total harmony with a human being…but not all human beings, but evolved spiritual human beings. Who had reached the age of 21 and were functioning out of their spiritual bodies as well as their physical one’s. Anyways, in this sacrifice of a [...]

Comments OffAntique Book Prices
Antique book prices are determined by a number of factors. Collecting antique books has become a popular hobby not only because of the potential profit when selling them, but because of the desire to read them and learn about the history behind them. What makes a Book Antique? Books do not become antiques simply because they’ve reached a particular age. Many books from the 1900s have minimal value. First editions are usually antique because they were written by famous authors before becoming famous. Four top priorities in making a book an antique and determining antique book prices are: #1 – Importance of Material The contents of a first edition book make it more valuable. The following types of books are considered to be “important” and can increase the value of a book: * Historical or other literary volumes * Initial reports of scientific discoveries or inventions * Illustrated books that give a new interpretation of text * Books of popular artists complete with their illustrations * Banned, censored or suppressed publications Others factors that make a book important include: * Special binding – for example; leather bound or gold leafed * Autograph * Inscription * Comments in the margins made by a famous individual #2 – Rarity A rare book is basically a book that becomes a rarity when the demand exceeds the supply. Therefore, if there are more people looking for a particular book then there are copies, this will make the book rare. People tend to think the following are rare, when in fact they are likely not: * Bibles – Because Bibles are so common and can be found in most stores, most copies of the Bible are not rare. However, there are some editions of the Bible that are rare. These include the earliest printed Bibles that date back to the 15th and 16th centuries. * Encyclopedias – Many people think that encyclopedias are antique. This is generally not the case because of the amount of copies that are created. There are only a few exceptions to this rule. The 1911 edition of Encyclopedia Britannica could be an exception. Also, sets of encyclopedias that were published before 1800 may have some market value. However, you will want the complete set. * Old Textbooks – because these are usually second-hand or used books, they are not generally considered to be rare. Two exceptions are early American primers in great condition and textbooks printed before 1850. The Eclectic Readers of William Holmes McGuffey are also popular amongst antique book collectors. The edition and condition of each book will affect the antique book price. Now, you can dedicate your time looking for more valuable books rather than the not-so-rare books listed above. #3 – Demand Demand and rarity are linked closely. If an edition is over a hundred years old but there are more copies available than people searching for them, it is not an antique. #4 – Condition The state of the book has a huge impact on the antique book price value. If the book is of important material, is rare and has a high demand then it may be on the possible antique list. However, it must still be in a decent condition to raise the value. Three degrees of condition are: * Mint * Good * Poor Mint condition is when the book looks as perfect as it did the day it was released over 100 years ago. Good condition is when it is almost perfect. Pages are still intact, but are not as crisp due to being used. There should not be any defects. Poor condition is when the book has been used and there could be a tear in a page or on the binder. They are even considered to be poor when the pages have yellowed. Maintaining the Condition of Antique Books Once you start collecting rare books, you will want to ensure they keep their value. Books can become damaged by environmental factors that may not even enter your mind. Here are just a few: * Light * Temperature * Humidity It cannot be stressed enough how important it is to keep your antique books in a dry, cool and evenly maintained environment. Books should not be exposed to direct lighting. Humidity and temperature fluctuations can cause damage to sensitive books. Do Not Store Books in the Following Locations: * Basements * Garages * Attics These locations are generally too wet/damp, too hot, or simply fluctuate in their humidity or temperature. Other Suggestions for the Storage of Antique Books: * Do not wrap plastic around books. This will decrease the circulation of air, causing mold or mildew to grow. Plastics will also degrade over the years which may result in the plastic fusing together with the book. * Never wrap books in newspaper or store them in a cardboard box. There is acid in the cardboard, as well as in newspaper. This will damage the books. * Never use adhesive tape to repair pages that are torn. This type of tape will yellow with age and leave a residue. There are protective coverings available for storing fragile books. * Do not place larger books, like art portfolios or atlases upright on the shelf. This may cause the book to slump and curve. Storing them flat on the shelf will prevent this from occurring. It is important to know antique book prices to ensure you are not being scammed into paying more than what the book is worth. It is also good to know the true value of a book so that you are not undercharging if you do intend to sell it.
Bush’s War Became Obama’s war
This small heralded paperback masterpiece of only 216 pages carries greater knowledge and understanding to anyone who has not already come to the sad conclusion that the USA has turned into a dangerous empire. I want you to know that, after reading Tom Engelhardt’s book, to read those books recently published with similar views such as Chalmer Johnson’s “Dismantling The Empire: America’s Last Best Hope” and Andrew Bacevich’s “. Three million people were killed in Vietnam, hundreds of thousands in Cambodia and now hundreds of thousands in the Afghanistan and Iraq Wars, including many women and children. Such civilian losses are commonly referred to as “Collateral Damage” by our military. From its first line, author Tom Engelhardt sets the motif for his tragic recitation: “”War is Peace” was one of the memorable slogans on the facade of the Ministry of Truth or Minitrue in “Newspeak” the language invented by George Orwell in 1948 for his dystopian novel, “1984″”. Readers who are looking to find out the goals and aspirations of Washington, or any imperial empire, will learn much about the workings of the world in this book. Engelhardt writes much about America’s “empire of bases” or “neo-colonies”, both the terms of Chalmers Johnson. Colonization and gunboat diplomacy may seem like outdated notions of the 18th and 19th century, but they live today, albeit in a more clandestine sense. One basic thing I love about the writings, were how down to earth they were. Englehardt unapologetically admits to being influenced by American mainstream culture. This is obvious throughout, as references to many works of fiction such as “Terminator” and “G.I. Joe” appear throughout the book. It humanizes Tom as more than a superior intellectual. It is important to remember how the American conscious has shaped us through Hollywood and the media from the day of birth.
