Seen on Pinterest: 10 Great Pumpkin Treats
It's no longer "Pumpkin Season," where children gleefully carve jack o'lanterns under mom and dad's watchful eyes, and Charlie Brown's "The Great Pumpkin" makes its annual television appearance. It's now the season of "Pumpkin Spice." We've gathered lots of awesome pumpkin (with or without spice) recipes for the season!
Cyber security: you’re not as safe as you think you are
New research by the National Cyber Security Alliance (NCSA) reveals we feel a lot more cyber safe than we actually are. In fact, last year, one in five American homes were notified of a data breach (with half of those receiving more than one!)…but yet 79 percent still feel safe! How can you close the gap between how safe you feel and how safe you really are? We've got some easy things you can do.

Cheap Tunes Tuesday: Janice Joplin
This album is as close to a masterpiece as you can get. It’s number 122 on the 500 greatest albums of all time, and has almost unanimous 5-star reviews. When you listen to it, it’s very easy to hear why. If you’ve never heard Janis sing, her voice is not only unique, it’s also absolutely amazing. She makes every word have emotion, no matter if it’s aching passion or a funky version of the blues. Today you can get Pearl for only $5 and it's actually worth way more than that.
“Jurassic World” comes to TDS TV on Demand
The fall season unleashes new seasons of acclaimed shows such as "The Knick," "Fargo" and "Elementary." But the big excitement is the arrival to TDS TV on Demand of one of the year's biggest hits - "Jurassic World." And if that's not enough, you can catch The Rock in the disaster flick "San Andreas," George Clooney in "Tomorrowland," plus a couple of quality teen flicks ("Dope" and "Paper Towns").
Cheap Tunes Tuesday: Arcade Fire
Arcade Fire's Funeral was named Album of the Year and was released to international critical acclaim. Because of the varied instruments, the sound is unlike anything else being made today—the band plays bass guitar, piano, violin, viola, cello, double bass, xylophone, glockenspiel, keyboard, synthesizer, French horn, accordion, harp, mandolin and even a hurdy-gurdy. This kind of laid back sound is not going to be for everyone, but if you look up the various reviews, there is a reason it receives constant 5 stars and 9 out 10s. Take that spare fiver today and give Arcade Fire a chance.
Savvy Spending: 10 Simple Steps To Your Perfect Wardrobe
Twice annually, I transition from my "summer" closet to my "winter" one, using the opportunity to re-evaluate my wardrobe. It's a good exercise, letting me take a realistic look at everything from my waistline (it's always sad when pants no longer fit) to my style (did I really wear those studded boots all last winter??). In today’s blog I offer 10 simple steps to pairing down your wardrobe so you’re only keeping what you really love.
Weekly tech news roundup for Friday, October 2
This week: one of the most terrifying apps will soon be released, there's a magical new concrete that sucks up water like a sponge, and a new Kickstarter will turn your dumb watch into a smart one. Also, Google releases new toys, Amazon pulls at least one of them from its store, and the Tesla X could be the most perfect family car ever created...except for the price tag.
Take a funny test in Facebook? It’s time to clean permissions
If you take those Facebook quizzes be warned: you’re basically purchasing an automatically generated joke about you and your friends and pay by allowing them access to your friend list and Facebook wall—including all your past, current and future posts. And on top of that, you pay with knowledge about all your friends too, but without asking them for permission. A good deal? Well, maybe and maybe not.
Cheap Tunes Tuesday: One Republic
Believe it or not, the social networking site MySpace is what saved today's band from obscurity. After being dropped from their first label, Timbaland discovered them on that once-famous website and signed them. The production value of OneRepublic's debut album is off the charts, the sound is solid, and there's even a super-famous track used in over 75 TV shows, films, and commercials. Today you can get for only $5.
