Seth Godin has a great list of suggestions for do-it-yourself [graduate school for unemployed college students]. Here's an excerpt:
In 2007, 51 percent of graduating college students could find jobs in their field, and this year it has dropped to only 20 percent. If you find yourself with some time on your hands, either recently graduated or recently unemployed, consider volunteerism.Last year, I chose to donate my time and money to an innovative project called "One Laptop per Child" [OLPC]. It was one of my [New Years Resolutions] for 2008. I was actually "recruited" by folks from the OLPC after they read my [series of blog posts] on things that can be done with their now famous green-and-white XO laptop.
- Nepal
The first half of the year, I spent helping "Open Learning Exchange Nepal" [OLE Nepal], a non-government organization (NGO) to help education in that country. XO laptops were provided to second and sixth graders at several schools, and my assignment was to help with the school "XS" server. This would be the server that all the laptops connect to. My blog posts on this included:
- [Supporting OLPC School Servers with LAMP Stacks]
- [Understanding LAMP platform for Web 2.0 workloads]
Rather than [Move to Nepal], I was able to help by building an identical XS server in Tucson, and provide support remotely. This included getting the "Mesh Antennas"to be properly recognized, having an internet filter using [DansGuardian] software, and working out backup procedures.
- Uruguay
For the second half of the year, I was asked to mentor a college student inHyderabad, India as part of the ["Google Summer of Code"] to develop an[Educational Blogger System]on the XS server. We called it "EduBlog" and based it on the popular [Moodle] educational software platform.This was going to be tested with kids from Uruguay, but sending a serverdown to this country proved politically-challenging, so instead, I [builta server and shipped it] to a co-location facility in Pennsylvania that agreed to donate the cost and expenses needed to run the server there with full internet connection. I acted as "system admin" for the box, was able to connect remotely via SSH, while Tarun, the college student I was mentoring, developed the EduBlog software. Twice the system washacked, but I was able to restore the system remotely thanks to a multi-boot configuration that allowedme to reboot to a read-only operating system image and restore the operating system and data.
The students and teachers in Uruguay were helped locally by [Proyecto Ceibal]. We were able to translate the system into Spanish, and the project was a big success, enough to convince local government to provideXO laptops to their students to further the benefits.
In recognition of these efforts, I was awarded last week the bronze[U.S. President's Volunteer Service Award] through the USA Freedom Corps and the President's Council on Service and Civic Participation.To learn more about these projects, see my [OLPC wiki page].

Rated 5 out of 5 by PhoenixMom does what it says! This cord keeper does what it says, and was easy to use. I needed it underneath a corner computer workstation where (unlike the picture) I had many cords coming down from three different directions (left, center, right) into one multi-outlet strip. I was able to easily cut the holder into three appropriately-sized sections with no trouble. The tool they give you to slip the bundled cords into the holder works like a charm. The only reason I gave 4 stars for appearance is that it looks a little bulky but it's the nature of the beast. The holder seems quite durable but I have only had it a couple of weeks. I'm pleased overall. February 6, 2014

How to Wrap Holiday Baked Goods
October 25, 2014 by Adrianne Surian
Filed under Cards & Tags, Core Blog, Core Projects, Fall Projects, Sizzix
I don't know about you, but fall baking season is here, which means I'm planning out some of my holiday baking and my gifts of baked goods this year. We are blessed with a lot of wonderful friends, and I enjoy giving cookies and sweet breads to let them know how much we appreciate them! Baking = sharing, and baked goods are a gift that's easy on a tight budget and are always well-recieved. Today I'll show you how to dress up mini loaves of bread to make them special gifts for the special people in your life – and this idea will work for any small box of goodies, as well (like 1-lb fudge boxes)!
Baked Goods Gift Tag Supplies:
- Core'dinations Spotted 12×12 sheets – shown here are Tillie Vanilla Cream and Tillie Scarlet
- Coredinations Core Essentials – shown in Vanilla Cream and Grape Gusto
- Paper trimmer
- Paper score board
- Sizzix Big Shot and gift tags die
- Rubber alphabet stamps and ink in coordinating colors
- Baker's twine
- Optional embellishments: rubber stamps, small flower punches, mini brads
Step 1. Trim 12″ papers in 2 coordinated colors to 2.5″ and 1.75″ wide, by 12″ long. (I trimmed the vanilla cream to 2.5″, and the darker papers to 1.75″) Measure and determine the dimensions of your bread tin, treat box, or wrapped loaf, and score a line at each of the corners. (Tip: Once you score the first one, you can use it as a template for all future wrappers.)
Step 2. Cut 2-hole tags with your die-cutting machine of choice (mine is my Big Shot). Any shape or style of tag will work, as long as you can punch it with 2 holes in each side to tie onto your box.
Step 3. Stamp your tags. Phrases like "with love", "for you", or "happy holidays" are universal and can be prepared in advance of your big baking day, but don't overlook personal touches like "love, Adrianne" or "for the Smith Family".
Step 4. (Optional.) Add embellishments. Small punches of flowers, leaves, or snowflakes attached with small brads add even more personality to your packaging.
Step 5. Layer your paper onto your bread tin or treat box, and tie the tag on with baker's twine. You can tape it on the bottom if you like; I didn't bother. The twine will hold it in place.
Step 6. Give gifts to special people, and feel great about it!
Baked goods will brighten anyone's day, but putting effort into dressing them up makes it even more special to your recipient. Delicious bread given in tin foil says, " I was baking, and I thought of you." Delicious bread in this sweet and simple gift wrapping says, "I was thinking of you, so I baked!"

Painting your cards and more with Kate!

Kate Nolan Denhame here and I am all about the Tim Holtz Distressed Cardstock from Core'dinations. Did you know this line of cardstock coordinates perfecly with most of the Distress Paints? It sure does!
3) Cut a 5″ x 3.75″ piece of Snowflake Core'dinations Cardstock. This will be your canvas for the matching Distress Paints.
5) Run your Distress Paint along the top of the wave stencil. *Some hints on this one…test your Distress Paint before you use it on your cut cardstock & make sure do not use too much paint.
6) Delicately lift the stencil off of your cardstock.
9) Repeat steps 7 and 8.
10) Allow the paint to completely dry before adding a stamped sentiment in the bottom right hand corner (if you want it like my first card). For my second card I trimmed the painted mat by 1/2″ and split the sentiment.
11) Mat the painted cardstock onto the mats you created in step 2.
12) Glue the matted cardstock on to the center front of your card base.
13) Add simple embellishments around the sentiment.
14) Give to someone to enjoy!

Tracy Gruber has some amazing projects for us today. ENJOY!
Winter cards are so fun to make with Core'dinations card stock because you can rip the paper to look just like snow! Start with a white card base that measures 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ (A2 size). Next cut a light blue mat that measures 4″ x 5 1/4." Then cut a piece of White Wash card stock with a blue background to 3 3/4″ x 5″ and then emboss it with the Cuttlebug Snowflakes embossing folder and sand it with the Sand It Gadget. Rip two strips of white card stock from the Neutrals Essentials pad to fit along the bottom of the embossed snowflake piece. Stamp the sentiment from Lawn Fawn on top of the white card stock. Next, cut out the snowman image from the Winter Frolic Cricut cartridge at 3 1/4." I used the white and brown card stock from the Neutrals paper pad, the teal, lime green, and orange card stock from the Brights paper pad, and the light pink from the Pastels paper pad. I attached that to the card base with Tombow 3D Foam Tabs. Finish the card by adding twine from The Twinery.

-Lawn Fawn Let It Snow stamp set

-The Twinery twine
-Tombow 3D Foam Tabs
-Core'dinations White Wash paper pad
-Sand It Gadget
-Dust Buddy
-Tuxedo Black Memento Ink
-Snowflakes Cuttlebug Embossing Folder
Creating Winter Layouts is even more fun when there is glitter involved! For my layout, I pulled out my Core Couture card stock and got to work! I used the white, navy blue, and light blue Core Couture and punched them out with a 1.5″ circle punch from Fiskars. Next, emboss each of the circles with the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots embossing folder and sand them with the Sand It Gadget. Arrange them onto a piece of gray card stock from the Neutrals Essentials paper pad. Emboss three lines around the edge of the gray card stock and sand it with the Sand It Gadget. Finish the layout by adding a title, snowflakes, and branches.

-Dust Buddy
-Cuttlebug Swiss Dots embossing folder
-Fiskars 1.5″ circle punch
-My Favorite Things snowflake dies
-Martha Stewart branch punch
-May Arts Natural twine
-October Afternoon letter stickers
I love to use the White Wash Collection on my layouts! Start with a 12×12 piece of White Wash card stock that has a kraft/brown background and emboss two lines on easy edge. Sand over them to make the color show through. Next, cut a piece of light blue card stock from the Pastels paper pad to 10″ x 10." Adhere that down to the 12×12 piece. Cut three squares of White Wash card stock with a blue backing to 3" x 3," emboss them with the Cuttlebug Snowflakes embossing folder, and sand them with the Sand It Gadget. Cut the title at 1 1/4″ from the Alphalicious Cricut cartridge. Sand the top and the bottom of each letter so the blue shows through and leaves the middle white. It creates a cool ombre effect. Add snowflakes, buttons, twine, and sequins to complete the layout.

Is the party over for fixed income?
Despite some bad numbers in July, managers are confident about the future saying that the turbulence has thrown up some interesting opportunities
Following July's fun and games in the U.S. bond market, a number of investors are beginning to ask themselves if the long running bull market in bonds has finally come to a juddering halt. Already there are signs that smart managers are shifting their focus away from traditional fixed income arbitrage towards credit, high yield and directional strategies.
For the time being, however, most are simply grateful that they survived the turbulent conditions in July, which was one

Vodafone — Vodafone SMS charges
3 Reviews
DaDavinder Singh
Vodafone Essar South Limited.
C-131, Industrial Area, Phase VIII, Mohali
Subject:-SMS charges.
The undersigned is user of Vodafone No.9780008670 and this is official mobile no. of Baba Farid University of Health Sciences,Faridkot. As per our bill plan first 200 SMS are free. But the company has charged Rs.1 per SMS in my last bill dated 21-12-09- to 20-01-10.
In this connection , the undersigned has called to customer care and they said that company will charge on New year, Dewali, Valentine day even your free SMS are pending. Then I asked that company should told to the user regarding your special days? But customer care told that this is your responsibility to ask the company.
I just want to know how long such fraud excuse and cheating will continue in Vodafone. This is your responsibility to told the user regarding such special day through SMS or phone call or in black and white. But you did not do so, because you want to cheat the innocent users of Vodafone. One day you will charge on calling of customer care center and you will reply the same "if you call on this and this day, we will charge".
So, this is very serious and bad impression from your end. You have to wave off my bill other wise face court case soon.

An Insider's Guide to Skiing Europe: Transportation
From renting a car to cheap places to stay and where to go, 15 tips for skiing the Alps
TIP 09: Train travel in Europe is a delight: it's efficient, extensive, and affordable. If you plan on visiting several countries or staying abroad for an extended amount of time, purchase a Eurail pass. Save money by deciding in advance which countries you plan on visiting and buying a Select, which grants you travel in three, four, or five countries, rather than the more expensive global pass, which covers travel in all 17 countries in the network. The three-country Select allows for five travel days over two months in three countries—say, France, Switzerland, and Austria—for $506. Save $76 when you book it with a buddy.
TIP 10: Rental cars in Europe are cheap. For as low as $287 a week, rent a manual, economy-class car with winter tires. Remember, though, that gas is more expensive and there are many more tolls than in the States (figure about $4 to $9 per hour you drive), but a car offers unmatched flexibility, spontaneity, and ease. Things to keep in mind: Automatic transmission is more expensive. It's often more costly to pick up a car at the airport, so take a train to the town rental hub for cheaper rates. Companies charge more to pick up a car in one country and drop it off in another. Rental car agencies with the best deals vary by country. Booking online yields the best rates. Try Auto Europe or Europcar.

good product..but....
Posted by Reviewer2253912 on Nov 03, 2008
So, I got the B5 design gel and have been using it for the last 2 weeks.....its a god product, but after a couple of hours of applying it, it becomes powdery and flaky..this happens in the morning, when u wake up aswell....my date thought I had dandruff (uggg...!!)
B5 Design Gel
Posted by Reviewer2733357 on Jun 18, 2009
Although I love the fact that Aubrey uses only natural ingredients, things I can actually pronounce, this particular gel left flakes after it dried. Maybe it was just my hair reacting to it but that's essentially why I am giving it 3 stars. The hold is medium and it wont stiffen up your hair so I use it sparingly.
Posted by erikamarija on Aug 22, 2012
Just good gel, not the best I have tried, but enough good to make natural look for hair.
Posted by JoysWorld on Aug 10, 2015
Good product without all the chemicals. Leaves my hair soft, shiny and holds the style even after sleeping. I can literally wake up, brush and go! Best of all, my hair is stronger and I have less breakage. However, I do get a build up and need to wash more frequently and clarify.
Could be better
Posted by Reviewer2627057 on Aug 01, 2015
I liked how soft and shiny this gel left my hair but as many have commented, the gel also left dandruff-like flakes on my scalp. I couldn't figure it out where the flakes were coming from or why I had developed them. As soon as I stopped using the gel, the flakes stopped. It is too bad because I really liked evrything else about this gel.
Good, but I don't care for the scent
Posted by Reviewer2846348 on Mar 30, 2009
Nice hold, but use sparingly or it will flake
Light but hydrating
Posted by naturellen on Jul 28, 2010
Gives my naturally curly hair some more bounce, a little definition and moisture.
Posted by Reviewer1254481 on Oct 13, 2009
I like that this gel is natural but it does flake and I dont care for the smell. I'm still going to use it but, the flaking and smell is not cute!
Posted by Reviewer3236571 on Jun 25, 2010
I expected a stronger hold with this; unfortunately I still have frizz in my curly hair. It smells nice, and it certainly helps some. If you need a light hold, this may be a good choice.

Mousse Causing Trouble for Us
... 8217;t speak English and we didn't do well in French. We took a couple of minutes to convince her that Mousse didn't go to the bathroom on her lawn. After that we were on our way to the truck.
After we got back to the truck, we decided to head to Gaspesie, Quebec. We had heard it was an interesting town. When we got to the town, we noticed the main road was under construction and the ...
Goodbye New Brunswick, Bonjour Quebec!!!!
... But we got by. As far as communications at the campsite, we found that we do have a slow internet, a great phone signal, and two TV channels – both in French. That
should be interesting.
Tomorrow we will explore Perce. We were told that the tourist activities were still open. We'll see.
Happy Trails,

Just one more photo......

The shoreline has changed. Sheer cliffs with the road balanced between the sea wall and the grey walls of rock. Continual layers wave and fold in abstract patterns of gray and silver. Dont think the light was right to do justice to the various shades. The layers obviously disintegrate regularly, with loose scree and chunks of rock lying at the base of the cliffs beside the road.
Now this is what we have been waiting for
The sun was out, then it got mostly cloudy the rest of the day. It was perfect riding temperature, about 65F. It took us all day to go 150 miles today! And we were tired to boot. We went down any side road we saw that intrigued us. Our first stop was in 13 miles at the Miguasha National Park. It dates back to a British geological survey in 1842. But the real story here started in the Devonian period 360 million years ago. The fossils of the fishes were ...

The first six of these reasons refer to the GDP number that came in last week at a 1.6% growth rate. Down from the 2.4% growth people originally thought, but better than the 1.4% revision people were expecting. Still, it was a great number:
A) It was positive. Certainly 1.6% growth is better than negative growth. We've now had 4 quarters in a row of positive GDP growth. Clearly we are not in a recession. Are we heading for a double-dip? I doubt it. Based on the conclusions below:
B) Personal consumption is at an all time high. In fact, the personal consumption numbers were revised higher. This despite the 10% unemployment. Once unemployment starts to go down, personal consumption (and GDP growth) should skyrocket. And, with inventories heading lower while consumption is increasing, unemployment is destined to fall (else, how will we restock the much-needed inventories).
C) Business investment in equipment and software went up at the highest rate since 1997. Remember what was happening in 1997? Every company was getting ready for Y2K, the Internet was booming, and the economy was great and getting ready to skyrocket for the next three years.
D) Dont forget that "real GDP growth" is the GDP growth rate minus inflation. The actual GDP growth rate was 3.6%. You always want to factor in inflation but I'm just mentioning this to note that growth is growth and I'm not really sure we had any inflation over the past quarter despite what the CPI index suggests.
E) Exports minus imports is factored into GDP. Part of the reason for the revision downward (GDP for Q2 was initially estimated at a 2.4% growth rate) is that imports spiked more than people thought. In other words, people are spending money. They are just buying goods made outside of the country instead of goods inside the country. Actually, thats not quite true. Exports were also revised upwards but imports were revised more. So, without this (i.e. without the fact that people are actually spending money instead of stuffing it under the mattress). GDP growth would've been revised even higher.
F) Corporate profits are up 39% year over year. Certainly thats a lagging indicator but it helps to explain why there is so much cash on the corporate balance sheet. In fact, corporate profits are gaining so fast that this suggests we could be seeing higher GDP numbers in the future as much of that additional cash will get spent.
G) Companies are spending their $2 trillion in cash:
- 162 companies have increased their dividends this year so far versus 2 decreasing
- $150bb worth of share buybacks have been announced this year versus $20bb for this time last year
- Companies are spending cash on M&A (INTC/MFE, POT, GENZ - all potential acquisitions - all cash)
Meanwhile, despite all this good news, Bernanke is getting ready for QE II: the next round of quantitative easing. This will surely drive stocks up. All ships will rise and I expect a year-end close on the S&P 500 around 1300, give or take. Stocks that could benefit include:
JNJ, a big Buffett pick. Dividends up 48 years in a row.
PG, dividends up 54 years in a row. Plus they supply all my beauty products.
MCD: The largest restaurant in the world (please bring back the McRib) and a dividend that has risen for 38 years in a row.
Chubb (NYSE:CB): Dividend up 28 years in a row. They buy back so much stock that over $7bb worth of stock has been taken off the market in the past 5 years. Insiders are buying the stock. The stock beats on earnings, guides up, etc. What's not to love? I bet Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK.A) is a buyer here.
Kansas City Southern (NYSE:KSU): More on this in an article coming tomorrow. Suffice to say I think this is a strong candidate to be acquired.
Portfolio Recovery (NASDAQ:PRAA): They buy consumer debt portfolios. These were selling for dirt cheap in 2008 and now PRAA is collecting. Trading for only about 10x forward earnings it's a solid play as people begin to pay back their debts with the economy starting to recover.
