If you are an American college student with some time to kill there is absolutely no reason you shouldn’t visit the UK.

Flights to London are cheaper than ever, and although the city is known for being notoriously expensive, you can have an amazing time with very little money.

Consider taking a long weekend trip to London this fall. Before you go, read this guide about my three days in London, which covers specific walking tours, must see views, museums to hit and also places to avoid. Also make sure you read hostel reviews on Hostel World to find a great, inexpensive place to stay, and buy yourself a good pair of walking shoes. (more…)

The iPhone 3GS has become the new travel companion for many because of its easy to use features. For folks like myself, just carrying the iPhone doesn’t do it justice, we need some stylish accessories to go with it. Here are 5 stylish, must have accessories for the iPhone 3G and 3GS.

There’s a difference between “getting away from it all” and really getting away from it all. The former may be achieved by visiting a resort in Cuba or the Dominican Republic, while the latter requires a little more effort (and cash). To escape to a spot that even an exiled Napoleon could relate to, consider dropping some serious dough on a private island rental.

These tropical spots are full of first-class amenities, offer beautiful ocean views and, best of all, provide rest, relaxation and solitude. To make your choice easier, here are the 10 best private island rentals. Note: all rates are listed in U.S. dollars.

2009 has been a rough year so far. Financial markets have tanked worldwide, those of us who still have jobs are waiting to lose them, Gisele got married, Americans suck at sex, and graduating college students might have a very difficult time finding a job. It’s all enough to get one dreaming of a fresh start — and what better way to get one than to start a new life in a new city? If moving to a college town like Morgantown, W.Va. to find a job isn’t your idea of a good time then start your move to greener pastures by checking out The Top 29: Best Cities To Live In.

In short, the cities on the list are diverse, but they all have one thing in common: They’re great cities for men to live in.

What to do while traveling and what not to do. These are things you should know. Every city, every state, country, region…they’re all different. And I’m here to tell you what to do and what not to do based on my own experiences. Starting with Atlantic City, New Jersey.

Let’s pretend you find yourself in Atlantic City, New Jersey. There’s likely only one reason why: gambling. Gambling is legal and blossoming in this grim and gray beach town. If you East-Coasters can’t afford the trip to the desert’s Las Vegas to give your luck at the Black Jack table a turn, Atlantic City is where you’ll likely end up for your gambling getaway. But beware…A.C. is no Las Vegas. I recently visited the city and have these pieces of advice for you: (more…)

As the days of “fear” and “terror” being the only sellable news stories increase, we have all heard stories of people named “Johnson” and “Smith” at the top of the terrorist watch list. No matter how many 60 Minutes specials or Dateline exclusives, I can’t help but wonder how in the hell it happens.

The obvious reasons are that some “terrorists” have created false identities that just happen to be the same as ordinary citizens. It makes sense to me and, after all, what rational and reasonable government agent would put an innocent person on the most debilitating international list since Schindler’s?

In reality, this simple list of the potential troublemakers was designed to be a secret intel tool for investigation purposes. Unfortunately, it has morphed into a symbol of governmental inefficiency. Because people are inherently lazy, in leiu of doing any kind of elementary investigation, circumstantial evidence has become the norm for placement on this list.

Accordingly, there are several ways that an average joe can find himself on this list without even knowing it. That is, until they decide to buy a car, get on a plane, go to the grocery store or get a credit card (to start with).

1. Search at Your Own Risk

Compliments of the Patriot Act, several government agencies have the ability to track your internet search habits. Being that there are so many searches performed an hour, these agencies log keywords and look for combinations that they think are tied to you being a “terrorist.” For example, at risk search terms include “Anarchists Cookbook,” “bomb making,” “airport security,” and  “homemade plastic.” The days of Googling keywords out of inane curiosity are over.

Be careful what you search, how often you search it, and the combination of terms that you are searching. I think common sense will prevail, in that, if you THINK you shouldn’t be searching for something – it’s not worth it.

2. Last Minute Flights

If you are a frequent traveler, you are better traveling in patterns. Meaning, if you travel a lot to San Fran for work or a girlfriend, you are set. Last minute flights, however, are a sure-fire red flag. You can look forward to getting the dreaded “SSSS” on your boarding pass, which every now and then, is nothing but a hindrance that will delay your sitting in the terminal for an hour while your flight is delayed anyway.

It is important to note, patterns being what they are, after 12 – 15 instances you are officially red-flagged as a potential threat. At this point, you are dancing a fine line and should start planning your trips a little farther ahead of time because you will get a special security search tag every time you travel.

3. Don’t get Cute with names!

People are into have multiple name, like Ann Marie Madison Smith and other cute WASP-y sounding names. Unfortunately having multiple names is not a traditionally “American” tradition, at least that is what the government thinks. It would appear that terrorists like Abdul Mohammad Ishmael Zacowie have ruined it for the rest of us.

Having 2 first names or even worse, 2 first names and a middle as part of your “proper” name, increases your risk by a double digit percentage. The TWL system looks for multiple names and automatically raises a flag. Being cute-sy is not worth not it! Embrace being boring!

4. Email is not secure, don’t be a smartass!

To think that you are too unimportant for someone to scan you email might have been true 10 years ago. Alas, those days are gone. Many smartasses, especially around Spring Break time, think it will be unique to email friends with messages like, “If the F*&KING plane gets delayed like last year, just yell BOMB or FIRE so we can all get off and drink…”

Of course, on the level, any idiot with common sense will see it as frat banter. Unfortunately, the people overseeing are above average idiots and all they see on their screen is PLANE, BOMB, DELAYED, FIRE. Yeeeaaahhh…not pretty.

Although most of you would love to fall into the “nerd” category lets be serious…90% of us are zombies, at least according to this illustration by GraphJam.

Inside The NFL Combine Player Goodie Bags

The NFL Combine starts today in Indy, and for those who think the combine is just some offseason wankfest for diehard football fans would do well to realize that four or five little tests at this thing can either atone for or nullify a player’s entire body of work on the field. But now with Under Armour as the presenting sponsor for this year’s combine, each player invited will be getting a batch of UA gear with a retail value of about $900. [With Leather]

Every year millions of bright college students waltz into classes assuming they’ll ace it just like they did in high school. Sadly, the majority of them are wrong, leading to countless hissy fits, sob sessions, and complaints. This isn’t good for students or teachers, so to help everyone out I’ve decided to explain exactly how to get straight A’s in college. It doesn’t require much more work than high school, but it’s a different game and you need to learn the new rules. [universitiesandcolleges.org]

Two Professors Theorize On Bin Laden Hideout

After all these years, where is Osama bin Laden? Two college geography professors think they know.

How to Land a Job Abroad After Graduation

Always dreamed of traveling the world?  While this may seem like an unrealistic fantasy your senior year when faced with the immediate reality of low entry-level salaries and expensive college loans to repay, it could actually be a more attainable dream than you think.  All it takes is a little creativity, some planning, and a lot of determination on your part. Working abroad right out of college has many advantages.  It can put your career on the fast-track, it can teach you invaluable cultural nuances and give you the opportunity to become fluent in another language, it can overshadow lack of prior job experience or a less-than-stellar GPA on your resume, or it could be the perfect unique experience to make your application for the graduate school of your dreams stand out.
