In Broken Lightbulb
Great idea. One additional thought - sometimes if the bulb is in there too tight or there is not enough left of the remaining broken bulb, it may be tough to twist out, in which case, I've used a pair of pliers to carefully grab the metal part of the bulb base. Just make sure the power is turned off before trying this!!!

In MyRewardBoard
I'm going to check this out. I especially like the fact that if you like it and want to buy it, you just pay one time rather than a subscription.

In BB Gun Fun
Although this is a pretty unusual tip, I think that with the emphasis that the author has made on safety, it's actually a pretty neat idea for older kids. With the right supervision and safety gear, this sounds like it could a fun activity as long as the kids are old enough.

In iPod Podcasts Can Be Life-savers
This is great - it's really nice that these videos are free and super convenient to be able to put it on the iPod. Thanks for sharing!

In Improve Vocab While Stopping World Hunger
What a great way to learn and give at the same time. Great for adults and also for those high school kids studying for the SATs!
