When I was at Kent State, I convinced the librarian to let me into the 12th floor of their library. You have to have a key and are only allowed to touch the books with gloves and tongs. Its a rare book collection. I told her I was an student and needed to see these Russian books for a Russain history class, to look at the type of art from the time period on the bindings, and she believed me. I didn't touch them though, they were so old I was afraid I might break them.

Oregon Coast
The Oregon Coast is a region of the U.S. state of Oregon. It runs generally north-south along the Pacific Ocean, forming the western border of the state; the region is bounded to the east by the Oregon Coast Range. The Oregon Coast stretches approximately 363 miles (584 km) from the Columbia River in the north to the Oregon–California state border in the south. The Oregon Coast is not a specific geological, environmental, or political entity but, instead, includes the entire coastline of Oregon, including the Columbia River Estuary.
1967's Oregon Beach Bill allows free beach access to everyone. This bill allows private beach landowners to retain certain beach land rights, but it removes the property tax obligation of the beach landowner. In exchange, the beach landowner grants an easement passage to pedestrians. The Beach Bill grants a public access easement on the beach that cannot be taken away by the landowner nor can the landowner build on the beach.[1]
Traditionally, the Oregon Coast is regarded as three distinct sub-regions,[2] each with its own local features and regional history. While there are no legal or objective boundaries, most Oregonians consider the three regions to be:
The North Coast, which stretches from the Columbia River to Neskowin.[3]
The Central Coast, which stretches from Lincoln City to Florence.[4]
The South Coast, which stretches from Reedsport to the Oregon–California border.[5]
The largest city along the Oregon Coast is Coos Bay—population 16,000[6]—in Coos County on the South Coast. U.S. Route 101 is the primary highway from Astoria to Brookings, and is known for its scenic overlooks of the Pacific Ocean. There are over 80 state parks and recreation areas along the Oregon Coast. However, there are only a few highways that cross the coast mountains from the interior to the coast. This has led to highways US-20, US-30, US-26, SR-18 and SR-22, all serving the Willamette Valley / Portland area to the North and Central Coasts as being considered some of the worst in terms of traffic,[7] a conclusion disputed by the Oregon Department of Transportation. Highways SR-18 and US-20 are considered two of the most dangerous roads in the state.[8]
The Oregon Coast includes Clatsop County, Tillamook County, Lincoln County, western Lane County, western Douglas County, Coos County, and Curry County.

I have always loved books. The smell, feel, and weight is intoxicating to me.
While doing some dusting, I decided to take a few photos of some of the ones on my shelf. (I have boxes and trunks full!) It seems like whenever I take one down, I have to read through at least several pages of it again and the cleaning/dusting task tends to get set aside until I remember it again..

Codex Seraphinianus,[1] originally published in 1981, is an illustrated encyclopedia of an imaginary world, created by the Italian artist, architect, and industrial designer Luigi Serafini during thirty months, from 1976 to 1978.[2] The book is approximately 360 pages long (depending on edition), and written in a strange, generally unintelligible alphabet.[3]
Originally published in Italy, the book has since been released in several countries.[4]
It is believed that this book is in the public domain but this has not been confirmed.
Published in 1996, it's a bit out of date now as with most encyclopedias.
It wiil do for me though, mostly interested in the 50's through to the 70's.

Chandeliers is a drinking game that is a spinoff of Quarters. It moves a lot faster than Quarters, since there are a lot more targets to hit. The game involves a lot of beer as it gets consumed very quickly.
