If you need to go back to school...

OK...Try this one on for size... There is a school, headquartered in Minnesota, that offers over seventy five degree programs (including advanced degree options), over fifteen specialized certifications, and is recognized by the Higher Learning Commission. This school has a track record that stretches well over a decade and is currently serving over 15000 students.

Can you name it? Nope. It's not UM, MSU or even Macalester. It's Capella University. If you aren't familiar with Capella, it may be because it doesn't have dorm rooms or a sprawling campus. Instead, it is a distance learning option for those who want all the advantages of a higher education without putting up with many of the hassles that can can make the educational experience so frustrating.

If you need to "go back to school," you can get your ba, bs, ma, ms or mba online. Distance learning via the internet is a perfect way to improve and expand your knowledge base and qualifications.

Spears Kid Nattily Attired...

Personalized baby gifts are a great idea for almost any parent. There are exceptions, of course. You'd probably strike out with Britney Spears. The ex pop-princess turned mommy has a penchant for putting her kid into some pretty flashy duds. The little dandy, Sean Preston, is so well-clothed that he recently broke Esquire's list of best-dressed men/boys.

Spears, who hasn't bothered actually doing anything that would warrant attention in terms of her career for a couple of years, dropped around five grand in one of those crazy LA clothing stores recently. According to one paper, she spent a considerable amount of her time eyeing the baby t-shirts. Hey, if you have $5K to invest in Garanimals, you can get your kid into Esquire!
