Expelling Scientology from the Metaverse

I'm inclined to think there is no "we" behind this video and it is due to one very creative individual - but regardless - given the number of views on YouTube is it a fascinating statement on our society. I wonder if more people are beginning to understand the danger of "cults"?

Make a Profit off your College Bookstore

I have said it once, and I'll say it again - textbook rentals are not the solution to expensive textbooks, but I do have another suggestion.

Buy your used books from Amazon.com or another used book retailer like Half.com, or AbeBooks.com.

At the end of the term sell your books back to your bookstore for a profit. Yep - your bookstore doesn't distinguish between books bought from Amazon or their own bookstore, and since you can buy used books for less than 50% of the retail price - and most bookstore buy them back at the end of the term for 50% of retail, you can actually make a profit!

I did this for several years in college, so it worked at my college at least. Go ahead and try it out. At the least, you'll save money by buying your books online.
