How to Trick Out Your Golf Cart

by tailgatemike

Once upon a time golf carts were nothing more than a rented convenience for lazy golfers who didn't want to carry or pull their bags around the course (or were too cheap to take a caddie).

But with the advent of golf course centered retirement communities, golf carts have been transformed into personally-owned "second cars".

Growing numbers of retirees are building annexes onto their garages to house and charge up the buggies, and some communities even have added cart lanes to roads and cart trails to stores to boost golf cart access.

Nowadays, having a run-of-the-mill personal golf cart is like wearing a gray suit every day -- it's boring! So if you're in the market for a personal golf cart, or have one that could use a makeover, here's what you need to know.

How to Avoid Job-Search Scams During the Recession

by Kristen Fischer

With so many people on the job hunt in the current recession, there are unfortunately others that want to take advantage of it. For example, the FDIC has issued a warning about a rise in scams involving unauthorized money transfers from hacked online bank accounts to what they call "money mules," which are people hired through work-at-home scams to help cyber criminals overseas, launder money. But it's not just people working at home--scams are rampant everywhere--and are targeting those looking for jobs. Here are some ways to avoid getting tangled up in job-search scams.

How to Work with Furs, Feathers, and Leather - Tips From Project Runway

by Gigi Starr

Fur (faux or otherwise), feathers and leather look terrific on the runway, but can seem hard-to-wear once they're in the stores. Since these pieces make such a statement, wearing them may bring concerns of looking too flashy or improper. To add to it, concerns about cruelty, along with maintenance, can seem daunting.

Not so, argues Project Runway Season 6 contestant and nascent heartthrob Logan Neitzel. This Washington-based bad boy just premiered a fashion show in NYC with fellow PR star Epperson, and has worked with leather and other naturally-based trims for a long time. In this exclusive eHow interview, Logan clues us in on how to make these lively trimmings shine.

How to Fight Off Pirates

by CoastalGuy

Used to be when you heard about pirates, you conjured images of Blackbeard, the Jolly Roger flag or most recently, the dashing ne’er-do-well Captain Jack Sparrow from "Pirates of the Caribbean."

My own experience with pirates only extends to a buccaneer who stole my beer in Lake Havasu during Spring Break and the charming rogue who lured my date onto his boat off the coast of Florida. Such is life on the (low) seas.

But a term that was hoped to be relegated to the dustbin of history has now resurfaced with bold attacks on commercial sailing vessels, and even more brazen, seizing a British couple’s private yacht while touring the Indian Ocean.

Pirates are back, folks. And the script from their forefathers remains the same. They roam the open seas, loyal to no one, looking to board and capture riches and hostages.

True, most people don't own private yachts and if they do the odds of getting captured by a pirate must be around the same as being hit by lightening, winning the lotto and getting eaten by a shark. Simultaneously.

But should you test the waters of fate, even if you're not the swashbuckling type, here are a few tips on how to fight off pirates. Ah-hoy, Matey!

So, what can we do? Especially considering that while some of these cereals are obviousâ€"others may look like healthy cerealsâ€"and a healthy-sounding name does not necessarily mean a healthy cereal. Well, the good news isâ€"a little knowledge goes a long way.

Here are some ways to decode the "mystery" behind that sugary breakfast favorite kids have been slurping up for decades.

How to E-Train Your Child

by zpadmore

Years ago, a bedroom telephone line was the rites of passage from child to adolescent. Parents trusted their tween with private phone calls in their bedroom. A parent knew it wasn't too much trouble a tween can get into in the downtime after dinner and before bedtime. If there were long distance charges, they would show on the bill, and the tween's private telecommunications gig was up.

Today, the Internet is the gateway from childhood to adolescence. GetNetWise, a website guide for parents, suggests prepubescents ages 12 through 14 are ready for independent access to the Internet. At this age, teens use the Internet as a social medium to connect to friends.

Below are tips to help you frame your own family's Internet usage guidelines.
