Add mood lighting to this weekend's evening backyard soiree with some Mason jars, LED lights, and coin cell batteries. The Evil Mad Scientists DIY site describes how to make your own temporary outdoor lighting with cheap supplies and easy assembly.

Wipe your grill clean without the chemical waste by rubbing an onion against the grate of the grill. The Apartment Therapy blog explains that scrubbing a halved onion faced downwards on a heated grate will remove the grime and grit without requiring the hard and frustrating scrubbing of a Brillo pad.

Other moviegoers saw the child crying in the car and called for help. When the police finally got the boy out of the car, the child was dehydrated and scared but in relatively good condition.

That's what you'll pay to have FedEx throw your luggage around, but you'll pay $35 using UPS and $34 to let the post office deal with it. ...

Very good idea...still won't prevent the idoits who bring all their luggage as a carry on and refuse to check it. Thus delaying our flight even longer than it is.
