Hello,

Are you looking for a DIY project to do with your kids? You're in luck!
MAKE just came out with its School's Out Summer Fun Guide. Or how about
grabbing your DSLR camera and heading out to take some photos? Indeed,
getting some exercise is a great idea - if you're headed to OSCON in
Portland, you may want to pack your running shoes. There'll be a 5k for all
you OS folks. Now, go out and have some fun.
