Making:<\/strong>
\nI derive great enjoyment and instruction from watching YouTube videos<\/a> of Jimmy DiResta making stuff. All kinds of things from knives, to tables, to weird art. He is a master general-purpose craftsman, and with few words, he lets his actions speak. When he gives tips, he is awesome. For a great example, witness his Hot Glue Tips<\/a>. \u2013 KK<\/p>\n

Unlock phone:<\/strong>
\nIf you bought a phone that\u2019s locked to a specific mobile carrier, you won\u2019t be able to use it with another carrier until you get it unlocked. AT&T says they will unlock phones you\u2019ve had for two years, but the process is so arduous that it\u2019s never worked for me. They make it difficult on purpose, I suspect. But I\u2019ve unlocked phones using an unlocking service on eBay<\/a> and paying $6 per phone. I gave them the phone\u2019s 15-digit IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) serial number and a day later they sent me an email to let me know it\u2019s been unlocked. I have no idea how they do it, but it works. \u2014 MF<\/p>\n

Exercise app:<\/strong>
\nYoga Studio by Gaiam<\/a>\u00a0are like mini-yoga classes in your pocket. You can choose from 65 videos, varying in duration of 15-60 minutes. I\u2019m still in beginner mode and the 15-minute videos go by so fast! The app is available on Android and iPhone for $3.99. \u2014 CD<\/p>\n

Listenable:<\/strong>
\n\u201cNo one reaches out to you for compassion or empathy so you can teach them how to behave better. They reach out to us because they believe in our capacity to know our darkness well enough to sit in the dark with them.\u201d This quote comes from Bren\u00e9 Brown\u2019s The Power of Vulnerability<\/a>. Her talk and teachings on authenticity, connection, and courage, based on 12 years of research, inspired me to be a better friend to those in my life \u2014 to show up and be present and hold a space of empathy for those in need. Available as a 6-hour audible download or audio CD, listening to her is like listening to your funniest friend, who\u2019s also a doctor. \u2014 CD<\/p>\n

Great read:<\/strong>
\nMy friend Stewart Brand has been trying to resurrect extinct species. He is not the only one. Ross Andersen has written a beautiful article in The Atlantic<\/i>, entitled Welcome to Pleistocene Park<\/a>, about a charismatic Siberian family who are trying to bring back the wooly mammoth by the thousands in order to change the climate. The article is a memorable story about a complex father and son relationship, about renegade Russian scientists, about tree-smashing tanks, about isolation of the tundra and the role of mammoths, about deep geology, and of course about the astounding science of restoring extinct animals. All told with beautiful grace. A 20-minute read that is highly recommended. \u2014 KK<\/p>\n

Learning:<\/strong>
\nIf you maintain a website or blog, HTML Reference<\/a> is a site that has examples of different HTML tags. Many of the tags are new to me, but look useful, such as the article tag. \u2014 MF<\/p>\n
