How-To: Stay Safe During a Wildfire
Since the breakout of the August wildfires north of Los Angeles, at least 53 buildings have been destroyed, and 4,300 people have been evacuated. As of this writing, more than 12,000 homes are under threat.

New York Coffee Shops Begin Banning Laptop Users
Love to spend all day using the free WiFi in your local coffee shop? You might have to say sayonara to this, if your beanery is one of the many in New York that are starting to ban laptop users from hanging out.

The way these lights work is each LED light stores the sun's power in replaceable and rechargeable batteries, so you don't have to worry about cords or access to power outlets.
Love It or Hate It? Easy Lamp
No one likes to see an ugly bare bulb hanging from a ceiling outlet, so Droog Design suggests using the Easy Lamp ($121). Made of translucent polypropylene, the cover simply pops on a hanging bulb. Is it just me, or can you get nearly the same effect with a $5 white paper lantern?

For Dress Your Walls month, I thought I'd repost some bright ideas I had earlier in the year that relate to this month's theme.

When I find any archived posts that are particularly helpful for this month's theme, I'll run them in addition to the regular posts I'm putting up each day.
Open House: Who Is Your Handyman?
You know I love to DIY. But, contrary to popular opinion, I am not actually good at everything. I can paint, sew, garden, hang wallpaper, and even do some plumbing, among other things.
