Steeler restructures---committing cap suicide
It looks like as many as 5-6 Steelers will be restructuring their contracts to get below the 3/12 cap deadline.
The names I've heard taking restructures: Roethlisberger, Timmons, Woodley, and Antonio Brown. James Harrison is likely going to be cut and asked to return at a lesser salary.
IMO, this is the absolute best thing for the rest of the AFC North. The Steelers are no longer a Super Bowl contending team. The core of players that they have still has some good players in it, but they simply do not have the depth or the youth needed to overtake the four elite AFC franchises or the two emerging ones (Cincy and Indy). If they can't get out of the first round of the playoffs/into the playoffs for two straight years when their core was in their late 20s/early 30s, how can they expect to do it now with essentially the same core now two years older? They needed to add better, younger talent around that core, and instead they just keep robbing Peter to pay Paul. By doing this, they are basically anchoring themselves to the same 10-12 aging players, without having the cap room to attract any younger free agents. This philosophy has taken them from SB contenders to non-factor in the short time of two years. Instead of moving on from their aging vets and replacing them with younger, cheaper, higher-upsided talent (a la the Ravens) they have for half a decade now continued to pay these guys over market value to keep them in Pittsburgh. The only way for the Steelers to get back in the mix is to blow up their roster and rebuild around guys like Timmons/Big Ben/DeCastro/Pouncey and hope they are back in the mix by 2014 or 2015. Instead, they are going to pin their hopes of the future to a bunch of overpaid 30 plusers.
All the reports I'm seeing say on ESPN that these restructures will drop the Steelers down to $7.5 million OVER the cap. Frankly, I don't think that's correct, unless these restructures were enormous. Prior to any restructures, the Steelers were $23 million over the cap by my calculations. That would be roughly $4-5 million per restructure saved on 2013 just to get them down to $7 million. My guess is that the people who are giving these cap calculations weren't factoring in RFA tenders.
More details below.
Re: Steeler restructures---committing cap suicide
This offseason seems like a ton of restructures so far. It looks like teams are hedging their bets that the cap will go up drastically in 2015.
Dallas, Pitt, etc.
A lot of these guys just signed a deal last year and are already being restructured. Crazy.

I'll believe that PIT is dead when I'm reading the autopsy.

Re: Steeler restructures---committing cap suicide
Cap problems are always overstated. The Saints just did a bunch of restructures also to clear cap room.

Re: Steeler restructures---committing cap suicide
The Steelers do this every year. Eventually they are going to get near the end of Ben's contract and end up with a crazy guaranteed number on a declining player. They must feel that they can win now and are willing to sacrifice the future to make it happen.He Who Dares.....Wins

Re: Steeler restructures---committing cap suicide
this is pretty much a proven method of not staying competitive year in year out. Its a proven method however to be a SB contender two out of every 3 years, which seems to be their priority. rather than be a playoff team every year (us) theyd rather put all their eggs in one basket every 3 years. Cant say it doesnt work for them, but i think its catching up now and this is likely to be a year of back to back non-playoffs which may change their tune.-JAB
Re: Steeler restructures---committing cap suicide
I'm usually of the opinion that reports of the Steelers' demise are generally overstated, however, aging stars with draft picks that haven't exactly panned out along with a cap problem of this magnitude doesn't exactly spell success.
Re: Steeler restructures---committing cap suicide
I've never seen an organization so desperate to keep an aging, mediocre team together as the Steelers.

Re: Steeler restructures---committing cap suicide
Read their message boards, the fans aren't happy about the players, their pay, and their age at a lot of places. Sorry I am in the boat that the Steelers are like Dracula, they keep coming back. But their future planning has been a puzzle to me. I feel like they think they are the team that beat us all those years ago and that formula will keep working. That their opponents like us are going to stand pat.
How long have they ignored their line? Too long. Big Ben almost did get killed for real this year. If I am them, I'd start a new strategy, blow up the team. Ben's heroics are going to become more of a memory.
If I was them holding on for one more run, I'd have not gone with Haley, worked on a more power run game, get a big back like Stephen Jackson, and revert to what we used to be, but this incarnation of the Steelers looks like it is heading to the shitter.

Re: Steeler restructures---committing cap suicide
I warned the OP much earlier in the offseason process that his reports of the death of the Steelers were greatly exaggerated, and I believe this pronouncement is similarly premature. Keep on proclaiming them dead while they methodically solve their problems as the Ravens founder around with their best player not under contract.
The Steelers HAVE a "young core" in place to build around. Restructuring some of those contracts definitely pushes off the pain until future years, but they are betting on the cap increasing in future years as much as the Ravens did when they signed the Ngata, Webb, and Rice deals, all of which double or even triple in cap hits beginning in 2014. The anticipated Flacco contract will be much the same--huge cap hits in future years. Go look up the cap numbers for the restructured Woodley and Brown contracts. Those contracts were done very carefully with small bonus numbers in future years SPECIFICALLY to open up the possibility of restructures without causing too much harm. Woodley's cap hits in future years are right around the 13m mark. What's Suggs' cap number over the next 2 years? Right around 13m. No difference between the Steelers and Ravens there.
The reality of the matter is simple: the Steelers have a franchise QB under contract for several years, with an extremely young, talented, and cheap OL to protect him. They have Antonio Brown and numerous young pieces on defense (Woodley, Timmons, Heyward all under 30) all under their control long-term with a few key older players who are still playing at a very high level (Ike Taylor one of the best CBs in football, Ryan Clark a top 10 FS, and Brett Keisel a top 10 5-tech DE).
They draft well and give their draft picks time to develop. They WILL be a good team in 2013 if they avoid injuries, it's as simple as that. The Ravens were only 2 wins better than them in the regular season last year and got beaten at home by their 3rd string QB. People roundly mocked LeBeau for saying it could have been Pittsburgh instead of Baltimore last year, but he wasn't wrong. They got hit by the injury bug about as hard as we did (or maybe even a little harder), but didn't get as many breaks going their way. It's going to be a dogfight for the division again next year.
Re: Steeler restructures---committing cap suicide
The main problem is that the Steelers have 11 players who are taking up roughly 85-87% of their total cap (prior to any restructures). That leaves $13-15% to be spread between the other 40 players under their "rule of 51". By my calculations, the Steelers top 11 players (referenced below) were making $106 million prior to these recent restructures.
Roethlisberger (age 31 in 2013) $19.6 million in 2013- $8.4 in dead money remaining
Harrison (age 35 in 2013) $10 million in 2013 - $5 million in dead money
Ryan Clark (34) $4.8 million- $1.3 in dead money
Antonio Brown (27)- $3.1 million-approx. $13.2 in future dead money- This was just restructured- I will get to this momentarily
Lamarr Woodley (turns 29 in Nov)- $13.2 million in 2013- approx. $14.2 in future dead money
Lawrence Timmons (27)- $5.9 million in 2013- $18.2 in future dead money- just restructured- will elaborate below
Troy Polamalu (32)- $10.1 million in 2013- $5.3 in future dead money
Willie Colon (30)- $7.6 million in 2013- $6.4 in future dead money
Heath Miller (turns 31 in Oct)- $8 million in 2013- $4.6 in future dead money
Ike Taylor (33)- $9.5 million in 2013- $6.4 million in dead money
Bret Keisel (35)- $4.5 million in 2013- $1.8 in dead money
So, even after the restructures to Timmons and Brown, the Steelers have $96.3 million tied up in these 11 players. That's 80% of the projected cap. That leaves them roughly $24 million to spread over the other 40 players.
The restructures to Timmons/Brown saved roughly $9 million between those two players towards 2013, which is significant, and they are still in awful shape.
If you take it a step further, Pouncey and DeCastro are making $4.3 combined next year, so now they have $100.6 tied up in 13 players.
Redman and Dwyer are both RFAs. You have to imagine that both players, given their late round/undrafted status, will have to be offered a 2nd round RFA tender, because a Round-of-draft tender would make them goners to another team. Who wouldn't give up their 6th rounder to get Jonathan Dwyer? Both players will get RFA tenders around $2 million. Now their cap is at $104.6 through just 15 players. That leaves 36 players that they now have to pay with roughly $16 million.
Suisham is on the hook for $1.7 million and Emmanuel Sanders is a RFA as well. Let's assume with him being a 3rd rounder that they offer a ROD RFA tender for $1.3 million. Sanders is a solid player worth keeping, but after 2013, where will the salary cap room to do so be found? There's another $3 million between those two. Now they have $107.6 tied up in 17 players. That leaves $13 million to be spread between 34 players ($382k per player) Obviously, that's not possible, as that puts you well below the league minimum.
Recent draft picks Cam Heyward, Jason Worilds, Mike Adams, and Ziggy Hood combine to make $5.6 million between them. All four of these players are good values at their respective salaries. Yet, the Steelers might now struggle to find room to offer them anywhere near market value as they approach free agency, much like they are unable to with Mike Wallace. If you add the $5.6 million to the picture, the Steelers now have $113.2 tied up in those 21 players. That leaves roughly $7.5 million to be spread over the other 30 players who count under the "rule of 51". That's $250k per player, or roughly half of what the lowest player on your rule of 51 roster counts against your cap. We haven't even factored in other players currently on the roster who are making above $500k/year or any incoming rookies.

Re: Steeler restructures---committing cap suicide
Even if the Ravens have a little more palatable number, say 10 players taking up 60% of the cap with 40% allocated to the remaining 40, how much difference does that really make? Draft picks are cheap, and if you depend on a core of expensive, elite players supported by a big pool of young first-contract players, isn't that just the model of franchise success, no matter how skewed the numbers might be?
LT-Gilbert LG-Beachum C-Pouncey RG-DeCastro RT-Adams
Every starter on that line is 24 or younger and all but 1 is a first or second round pick. That's definitely young and talented, and the Steelers were never able to field that line last year because their OL was ravaged by injuries. The injury situation will regress to the mean next year and be better by default, so I strongly expect their OL to be MUCH improved.
As for the young talent on their roster to build around... not much else I can say apart from what I already said. Antonio Brown is a very good receiver, Woodley is one of the league's best pass rushers when healthy, and Timmons is perhaps the best young ILB in the AFC. I've already highlighted how young their OL is, and they have numerous defensive draft picks (Cameron Heyward, Steve McLendon, Curtis Brown, Cortez Allen) who have played well in limited duty.
I just don't think the Steelers are in the kind of trouble teams like Jacksonville, Oakland, etc. are. Those are teams without a franchise QB and with virtually no talent on the roster. The Steelers are way above that territory.
Re: Steeler restructures---committing cap suicide
Let's get back to Timmons and Brown. I give the Steelers credit that these are the two players most worthy of restructures. They are both turning 27 this year and will be around for a while.
With Antonio Brown, the Steelers took $3.85 million of his 2013 salary and converted it into a bonus prorated over the next 5 years. It is applied in increments of $770k from 2013-2017. This dropped his 2013 cap # from around $6.2 million down to $3.1 million. From 2013-2016, Brown's signing bonus dead money increased from $1.7 million to $2.47. In 2017, when Brown's last year of contract had no dead money, it now has $770k. I'm not totally in favor of restructures in most cases, but this is probably one of the more sensible ones I've seen, particularly by Steeler standards. Since Brown has 5 years remaining on his deal, you can move a decent amount of money without having the cap impact be that damaging.
However, on a down side, Brown does now have $10.5 million in dead money heading forward, versus $7.5 before the restructure. His salary in 2015, when he's 29, is $8.5 million and in 2016, when he's 30, is $10.7. It's hard to say what future caps will look like, but those are high figures for a guy like Brown, who is a solid, productive WR, but not elite.
Timmons is the same age as Brown, even though he was drafted in 2007 and Brown was drafted in 2010.
His restructure was $4.5 million over 4 years with a roster bonus of $2.5 million. This dropped his 2013 cap # from $10.4 to $5.9 million. However, now the prorated portion of those two bonuses ($1.75 million per year) will be tacked on to his cap # for 2014,2015, and 2016. His cap cost those three years will be $11.8, $12.5, and $11.8. Timmons is probably the best player on the Steelers in my opinion, so this isn't an insane restructure, but it is pushing the limits of sanity a bit. He will have about $5 million of dead money in 2014 and 2015 and $3 million in 2016 (last year of his current contract). If Timmons keeps pace at his current high level of play, it's no big deal, but if his play drops a bit, the Steelers will be in a tough spot to cut him due to the $13 million in dead money.
What I'm hearing on the Post Gazette's site is that Big Ben might convert as much as $9 million of his 2013 salary into a bonus to be spread in increments of $3 million/year over the remaining three years on his deal. This would drop his 2013 salary cap # from $19.6 to $13.6. But it would also take his 2014 cap # from $14.9 to $17.9 and his 2015 (when he's 33)from $14.4 to $17.4. Given his inability to stay on the field recently, that's a very unsound, risky gamble in my opinion.
If you look at it this way....assuming the Steelers do restructure Ben as above, they now created an extra $5.3 million in dead money for 2014 and 2015 just between the restructures to Brown, Timmons, and Roethlisberger. This doesn't even count the $9.5 million/year that is already "dead money" through those 3 contracts for 2014 and 2015. This is $5.3 on top of that amount. So what does $5.3 million get you that the Steelers will now no longer have in 2014 and 2015? Well, using last year as an example, that $5.3 million would have gotten you both Jacoby Jones and Corey Graham during this past offseason. That's a huge amount of money to make "dead" just through the process of getting yourself out of cap trouble. .They also created an extra $2.2 million in dead money for 2016 with Brown and Timmons.
If the Steelers can somehow resurrect these 30-somethings into past glory for one more 10-6 season in 2013 (very optimistic), it's going to come at a huge cost to their chances for success in 2014 and 2015. In order for these restructures to make the slightest sense, you have to believe that there is a Super Bowl contending roster still in that 2013 clubhouse. I think that's a longshot to begin with, particularly when you consider that their 2011 and 2012 teams weren't particularly close to even reaching a Super Bowl. Those teams had Wallace, Hampton, Foote, Foster, and Mundy, all who are likely to be lost in free agency. What logic is there to think that these aging players will suddenly turn into their 2010 versions? Even if some of them did, where are the complimentary players needed to sustain a roster during a 16 game season? They are on other rosters now, because the Steeler FO has butchered their salary cap for years now.
Long years ahead in Pittsburgh. Serves them right.

WHILE Blake Boyle is only new to the art world, he has certainly made his mark.
The 15-year-old St Columban's College student was recently crowned Young Australian Artist of the Year for his painting titled A Very Balloon Day.
Despite his exceptional talent, Boyle remains pretty relaxed when it comes to his art.
"We only sent his entry in on closing day," proud mum Tammy Boyle said
"I honestly didn't think he would win, we were just wanting a certificate to say he had entered.
"It was 12 days later we found out he'd won."
While others spend years working to win art competitions, Blake has only been painting for the best part of a year and is yet to own his first set of paints or brushes. Instead he works once a week under the guidance of art tutor Darla Boyd of Your Art Studio, Caboolture.
"He's a typical artist, not too fussed on time constraints but he is very passionate about it," Tammy said.
"Now that he knows he can do it I think it is something he will always do."
Blake and his family recently travelled to Melbourne to receive his trophy.
His work will travel the country for the next 12 months.

It's Easter Craft time! We recently made a Footprint Bunny and of course a Bunny needs a Carrot! So we made one of those as well. Our 7 year old was happy to be the foot model for this fun carrot!
What you Need:
Paint – Orange and Green
Dip your child's foot in the paint. Make sure it is well covered. Stamp the foot onto the paper. Set it aside to dry.
After the foot stamp is fully dry. Take your paintbrush and paint the greens or leaves.
Once it dried I added the child's name and the year with foam letters. Next we framed it.
We will keep it out through Easter. Once the holiday is over I will tuck the frame away with other decorations and next year when we make our new one we can compare how much his foot has grown!
I know there won't be too many more years until my big boy won't be willing to make footprint art.
I cherish each one!

Covering Greece: When It's Not Just A Story, It's Personal By editor • Jul 26, 2015 Editor's Note: Reporter Joanna Kakissis was born in Greece but grew up in the U.S. She returned to Greece in 2010 just as the economic meltdown was beginning. She describes what it's like to cover a story that often feels very personal. I live in a central Athens neighborhood that some describe as run-down, a term I still think is inaccurate and incomplete, applied by drive-by visitors from well-to-do suburbs and fellow journalists looking for a neighborhood to set the stage for a story about Greece's post-austerity impoverishment.

Nonetheless, the studios and networks are already planning next year's show, because Comic-Con is the sweet spot for a peculiar kind of advertising that's at its peak here. It's called immersive — or experiential — marketing, and it has taken off in the past few years.

Newport Folk's Pink Floyd Moment By Bob Boilen • Jul 25, 2015 The most puzzling musician on the lineup at the 2015 Newport Folk Festival was easily Pink Floyd's Roger Waters.

Other teams covet Nicolas Batum but Blazers unlikely to trade
Feb 29, 2012, 2:15 PM EDT
Is there a team that couldn't use an elite wing defender who is giving a team 13.9 points per game, is shooting 42 percent from three, works well off the ball and is willing to come off the bench.
There's a reason that the Portland Trail Blazers are going to get a lot of calls from other teams before the trade deadline looking to get Nicolas Batum. He's a keeper.
But the Blazers are not giving him up, reports the Oregonian.
The Blazers are not looking to rebuild and many trade partners will aggressively try to pry Nicolas Batum from them. That's not happening.
Just remember that when you keep hearing Batum's name come up in trade talks in the next couple of weeks. That's not happening. That's not happening. That's not happening. That's not happening. That's not happening. That's not happening….

Batum's not "willing" to come off the bench, that's why he didn't sign an extension, he wants to start somewhere.

IndiVISIBLE: RI Pride is radicalized
By Steve Ahlquist on June 22, 2015
"We are queering living wages, access to health care and transgender justice. Queering total immigration reform and ending incarceration. We are queering feminism, queering the way we talk about race, queering HIV activism, queering heteronormative ideas of marriage and couplehood, queerly engaging in radical protest, getting old queerly. We need to create a movement that says not only, 'We're here, we're queer, get used to it' but one that says 'Join us, dream with us, dare with us, go for broke, and change the world.'"

Senate Finance approves budget while advocacy groups respond
By Elisha Aldrich on June 18, 2015
Much like its House counterpart, the Senate Finance Committee passed the FY16 budget bill unanimously with almost no discussion other than to speak on its merits. "I would certainly characterize this budget as one that is not only ambitious, but one that makes a significant investment in areas that should have been invested in in […]

Budget bill passes House floor with almost no debate
By Elisha Aldrich on June 17, 2015
In what everyone thought would be a firestorm of debate, the RI House of Representatives unanimously passed the $8.7 billion FY 2016 budget with little to no discussion about many of the articles, including the much contested Medicaid cuts and pension settlement, as well as Governor Raimondo's so called "job tools." According to a House […]

Cicilline, Langevin, Gorbea push automatic voter registration to increase turnout
By Elisha Aldrich on June 15, 2015
The right to vote is a key proponent in what makes the American government work. But, for many Americans, there are barriers to the expression of that right. U.S. Congressman David Cicilline (D-RI), has just introduced the Automatic Voter Registration Act (H.R. 2694), a bill that would help to break down many of those barriers, […]

House Finance considers state budget bill today
By Elisha Aldrich on June 9, 2015
Everyone's eyes are on the State House as the budget for the next fiscal year is slated to be unveiled today. Governor Gina Raimondo released her proposed budget in March, and the legislative version will be introduced by the House Finance Committee today. Based on what Speaker of the House Nicholas Mattiello (D-District 15), Senate […]

RI socialists consider impact of Bernie Sanders presidential run
By Steve Ahlquist on May 22, 2015
Sanders is no radical, his brand of democratic socialism is in the northern European "strong social safety net" tradition, but that doesn't mean Sanders isn't the real deal. Eli, a Vermont native, knows Sanders to be a fierce independent and principled politician, a true rarity.

Bernie Sanders finds Rhode Island support for presidential run
By Steve Ahlquist on May 11, 2015
Lauren Niedel, of the RIPDA, summed up the reasons for her support when she said that Sanders "represents the people. He does not represent the 1 percent. He does not represent the corporations." Indeed, Niedel presented the group with Sanders' 12 point economic policy plan, which seemed to resonate well with those in attendance.

Chicago police defend SWAT raid
By Frank Main and Carol Marin
The Chicago Sun-Times
CHICAGO — Chicago Police defended their actions after a lawyer Wednesday released a surveillance video showing stun grenades exploding and SWAT officers pointing assault weapons at people kneeling in a hallway.
"It looked to me like the Chicago Police Department is engaging in military-type activity," said attorney George Becker after filing a $10 million federal lawsuit against the city, adding that his clients thought they were being robbed.

Just enter in a few details and you can find job postings in your city. Works like a charm.
How do you pick a career that's right for you? With so many options, how can you decide on the right direction to start walking?
Catherine read my book and is well on her way to a new career. She recently wrote this post about how to pick a career direction and find a path that you love. She said it would be okay if I shared the post below. To follow her progress, visit her blog: www.cbcandmore.com
* * * * * * *
Over a month ago, I had an article published with the Elephant Journal about how my exhausting job search contributed to my feelings of depression. The issue in the end was not that I could not find a full-time position; rather, that I did not have a career-focus. Once I had a career-focus, I found my lifestyle to be more fulfilling as I am now working towards my goal.
While I attended university, I considered applying to law school and graduate studies in public policy. However, upon completing my philosophy degree at McGill University, I realized that not only did I need a break from academia, staying in school longer will not give me the career insight that I needed.
Here's are the steps that worked for me.
* * * * * *
Here's how I used to try to get a job as an English major,
Dearest Sir AND/Or Madame,
As a recent graduate with a Master's Degree in English Literature, I can assure you that you can look no further for a finer writer. I'm a scholar of grammar, narrative form, and a collector of pretty words that roll like pearls in your mouth. I shall write, edit, and proofread for you. Let me know if you have an opening for a strong communicator.
Your Faithful Word Slave Starving and Deep in Student Loan Debt,
BA in English (Dean's List)
MA in English
Like most humanities grads, I thought that my best skills were writing and editing.
But here's a hard smack in the face for humanities majors. There are VERY few jobs out there for writers alone.
Journalism is almost dead, book publishing is dwindling, and most writers and editors aren't doing very well these days.
So what can you do?
Unless you plan to write best-selling novels or write for television, the best path to actually earning a livable wage from your writing is to think about this question . . .
I once wrote a cover letter. It was seven pages long. It broke every rule you've ever been taught about cover letters.
This cover letter landed me an internship, which got me a job, which started my career. Most of all, this cover letter taught me an important lesson about getting a job.
The first rule of a cover letter is . . .
The employer actually has to read it.
This is why starting your cover letter with "I'm a recent grad from the University of Nobody Cares" is a terrible way to present yourself.
The same.
Another generic applicant.
People seem to send me more guest posts these days. As I'm busy with my day job, I post the ones I think will be useful to you. This post is by Damian Davila.
A few years ago, I was a contractor at a company. This means that the company isn't claiming you as a employee. As such, you are a freelancer and responsible for paying employee-related taxes to the government. I happily spent my extra money and got hit by a big tax bill. I wish I had read a post like this back then as I'm pretty horrible with my books.
Are you freelancing? Pay attention to the tips in this article as the old saying about death and taxes is true.
This article covers how freelance article writers can keep more efficient track of revenues and expenses, and what tools and templates make billing and budgeting easier.
There are about 53 million Americans freelancing, generating an estimated $715 billion in earnings to our economy. When thinking about freelancing, the image of the freelance article writer often comes to mind.
With a median annual ranging from $51,940 to $61,630 back in 2012, freelance writing is an attractive career for those looking for schedule flexibility.? However, freelancers cite finding work and income stability as the top barriers to the industry.
In this article, we will cover how freelance article writers can keep more efficient track of revenues and expenses, and what tools and templates make billing and budgeting easier.
I received an email from a guy named Hanson. He wanted to share some tips for humanities majors looking for jobs. The article he sent me was too interesting to not publish. I personally know nothing about penny stocks. But this article is so good and the step-by-step tips for cold emailing to land that first job are brilliant and would work in other industries. Hanson, take it away my friend . . .
If you have your series 7 or any brokerage license, please click the top back button on your browser or Alt-F4.
Investment writing in the penny stocks field is not for those with professional licenses.
This is why there's a huge opportunity for you, a humanities major, to enter in.
A lot of people who enter this industry did not go to a formal college. They hustled as sales guys in boiler rooms, pushed penny stocks, and eventually they moved up the ranks. Back in the day, telemarketers would cold call potential customers.
As they gathered enough knowledge, they struck out on their own and created their own alert site to showcase the list of best penny stocks that they're aware about. These days the effective way to push penny stocks is by email to investors.
I will be showing you how to find these penny stock newsletter guys.
How much can you earn on an average newsletter?
An average newsletter is 500 to 1000 words long. You will spend about 2 hours researching facts and data. Don't worry, I show you where to find everything. You can get paid $500 to $1,000 for one email or up to $2,000 for a week series.
You need to be good at writing in a persuasive, factual, technical manner.
Be positive, even when you are not.
It was the middle of August and I was working my first real hard job.
They had taken us up in trucks through a deep valley and into the back mountains of Revelstoke, British Columbia. We were brushing, which means you get a small blade and slowly climb over bramble and rocks and fallen trees, cutting away overgrown grass from newly planted trees.
This was our first day brushing, my friend and I. We were terrible at it. And had a lot to prove to the foreman.
Three things that define brushing:
By the end of the first day, my friend and I climbed off the cutblock and walked along the mountain road. We were tired and walked slow.
The truck appeared around the corner. My friend gave me this piece of advice which has helped me all my career. He said, "run and look positive."
At the end of a long day, you expect a worker to be sluggish and complaining about their blistered feet. You don't expect them to run down the mountains and jump into the truck happy and energetic.
So we jogged towards the truck. I didn't feel like running. I wanted to complain about how hard the day was, how hot the day was, how much brushing sucked.
This impressed the foreman. At the end of the contract, he shook our hands and told us we could come back anytime for a job.
This taught me four career lessons:
Join me and the Versatile PhD Group in Boston as I deliver a live webinar on February 28th, 2015.
The webinar is called, "A Roadmap to Using Your PhD in a Career Outside of Academia." The date is Saturday Feb 28, 2015. 12:30 PM Eastern Time.
How to Register
If you have questions about joining, please contact @VPhDBoston or contact their group. I'm only presenting and not handling the registration.
See you there!
This weekend, I received this email. Thank-you for sending me your stories. It's good to know smart humanities majors are finding their place in the world.
I'm a frequent reader of your blog since I discovered it as a panicking philosophy junior. I bought your e-book, signed up for your 14-day career course, religiously followed everything you've said and ended up at one of the largest ad agencies in the world in their NYC office. I'm now doing social analytics for their 2 biggest accounts, two Fortune 1000 brands. I can honestly say that your blog has been the biggest source of inspiration for me during the past 2 years. Thank you so much for having kept writing.

With the copious quantities of beautiful fresh stone pip and berry fruits around at this time of the year I thought we could take a brief look at bottling fruit.
Firstly, why we need to preserve foods. The need to preserve food for enjoyment out of season comes through the natural destruction of the food either through the growth of micro-organisms - bacteria, moulds and fungi or through its own enzymes, which break it down.
To prevent these procedures one of four processes must take place. Removal of water from the food, usually by drying.
Maintenance of temperature at which none of the chemical processes can occur, for example, deep-freezing.
Maintenance of an environment around the food that is stronger than that in which living organisms can grow or multiply, with salt (salting), acid or alcohol (pickling) or sugar (as a syrup) in jams, jellies etc.
Prevention of the entry of micro-organisms, or killing all those present, by bottling or canning.
As with all areas of cooking, preservation has developed from a skill into an art form which today offers us a vast array of jams, jellies, pickles, chutneys, ketchups and sauces along with preserves, from which we can choose.
And although bottling has assumed a much lesser importance since the ease and availability of domestic deep-freezing, it is still pleasant and extremely convenient to have jars of bottled vegetables or fruit on hand all year round.
Although many cookbooks will tell you otherwise it is not always necessary to bottle in either a brine (for vegetables) or syrup (for fruit). Plain water will do the job equally well.
There are three basic methods of preserving fruit.
The water bath method Perhaps the most common method used since the introduction of electrically heated preserving pans. The method is very simple:
■ Always ensure the fruit or vegetables you are about to preserve are in-tip top condition; that they are not overripe, and any marks or blotches are removed. Also make sure the fruit or vegetables are clean.
■ Thoroughly wash and sterilise all jars and lids.
■ Fill the jars to approximately 2cm from the top with the fruit or vegetables ensuring they are reasonably tightly packed.
■ Fill the jars with the syrup for fruit, brine for vegetables or water if that is your preferred choice. Always check there are no air bubbles in the jars and if there are any, ensure you expel them.
■ Ensure the top of the jar is clean and place the sealable lid and screw on the screwable band, tighten by hand.
■ Place the jar into the pan and cover with water. Cover with a lid and bring to the boiling point.
■ Continue to boil until the fruit or vegetables are cooked. Keep an eye on the water level and ensure that the water remains a couple of centimetres above the top of the jars.
■ Once the cooking process has been completed, remove the jars and allow to cool slowly. When completely cold check that the lids have sealed, remove the screw band, and store jars in a cool dark place until required.
The overflow method This is really only suitable for fruit, which of course includes tomatoes.
■ Always ensure the fruit you are about to preserve is in tip-top condition. Ensure fruit is not overripe and that any marks or blotches are removed. Make sure the fruit is clean also.
■ Thoroughly wash and sterilise all jars and lids.
■ Prepare fruit as required - slices, pureed, halves etc - and place in a pan.
■ Add syrup or water to the pan and simmer until the fruit is just cooked.
■ Just before the fruit is cooked place the jars in a warm oven to heat.
■ Take one jar at a time and fill with the fruit mixture until it is approximately 1 cm from the top. Now top up with boiling syrup (or boiling water), place the lid on top and secure with a screw band. Again take care that there are no air bubbles. If you find any, expel using a long narrow knife).
■ Wipe the jars with a damp cloth and set them aside until they are cold, then check that the seal has sealed and remove the screw bands.
■ As with all preserves, store in a cool, dark, dry place.
Oven method Again, this method is better for fruits although vegetables are also able to be preserved this way. It is nteresting to note that I have never found this method mentioned in any overseas cookbooks. My guess is it is pretty much a Kiwi way. It is certainly one I well remember - especially having to clean the trays from the coalrange we had when we were first married, having had the fire going too hot and the fruits boiled over - not a nice sight!
■ Always ensure the fruit or vegetables you are about to preserve are in tip-top condition. They should not be over-ripe, and any marks or blotches should be removed. Make sure the fruit or vegetables are clean.
Thoroughly wash and sterilise all jars and lids. Pour in the syrup (which should be thin) or water to cover the fruit. Place the jars on a tray into an oven preheated to 180C and cook for about an hour.
When the fruit is almost ready immerse the lids in almost boiling water.
Then remove one jar from the oven at a time and top it up to overflowing with boiling water or thin syrup.
Place the sealing lid over the jar and secure with the screw band.
Repeat until all the jars have been removed, then let the jars cool.
Once cold, check the seal is sealed and remove the screw bands.
Once again store in a cool, dark place.
Today we will use the overflow method and produce some lightly spiced orange rings.
These are great for serving with sweet desserts or with savoury nibbles such as cheese, pickles etc as they have a lightly tart, sweet and sour flavour.
LIGHTLY SPICED ORANGE RINGS (for a 2kg jar)
6 thin-sliced sweet oranges
900ml water
700g sugar
300ml white vinegar
2 sticks cinnamon
1 Tbsp whole cloves
Pinch of mace
Method: Wipe the oranges and cut into 6mm. Remove any pips.
Place the slices in a saucepan, cover with water and bring to the boil. Once they have come to the boil, cover and allow to simmer for 10 minutes. Drain.
Heat the sugar and vinegar gently until the sugar dissolves and add the spices. Bring to the boil and boil 3-4 minutes.
Add the orange slices to the pan with the vinegar and sugar and simmer for 20 minutes. Remove from heat.
When the orange slices have almost finished in the simmering process, heat your jar. Put the orange slices into the jar and cover with the syrup, making sure there is sufficient syrup to completely cover the slices.
Allow to seal and leave for 2-3 weeks before serving.
