I know many of you are trying to blog your way through college. Anyone up for using your multi-media skills to earn a few bucks and work for progress at the same time?
I received word from a reader about this contest from Citizens for Global Solutions. Below is a teaser from their website. You can get the whole scoop on their site.
DESCRIPTION >>> Citizens for Global Solutions is holding a contest for students, budding artists, multi-media designers, and activists who are interested in making some cool flash videos. The top contenders will be published on our website for voting and the winners will get cash! We're looking for short flash movies that can inspire, amuse and activate people out there who believe a better world is possible.
You are welcome to work alone, in a team, or as part of a classroom project (but the cash prizes remain the same).
PRIZES >>> 1st Place: $2,000 || 2nd Place: $1,000 || 3rd Place: $500

FLASH CONTEST THEME: AMERICA’S ROLE IN THE WORLD >>> Americans get mostly bad news every day about the rest of the world, given the media’s heavy emphasis on wars, conflicts, and humanitarian and natural disasters and the lack of emphasis on solutions. It can seem that global problems are too scary, too big and too numerous to handle. Well, there’s plenty of blame being thrown around for what isn’t working, but no one seems to have a positive vision of what can be done. You have a chance to inspire listeners with your vision of how America can work with other countries to make the world safer and better! |

Half of all new car buyers (why buy new?) fail to negotiate the dealer's mark-up, costing consumers thousands more in unnecessary auto costs...
So: Have you educated students to avoid predatory automobile sales practices?
