If using Apple's special iPad keyboard dock makes you feel a little silly, how about using a wireless keyboard? The iPad supports Bluetooth connected keyboards including Apple's own classy wireless Mac keyboard ($69). We have every expectation that accessory manufacturers will be cranking out competing portable Bluetooth keyboards, in all shapes and sizes. Also, bear in mind that if you go the wireless keyboard route, you'll probably want to invest in some kind of basic stand to keep your iPad propped up.

Swoop Scooper Better Than Bare Hands
The swoop is a new take on an old problem -- picking up dog shit. You attach one of the special elastic bags, and it's spring loaded mechanism grabs the crap and turns the bag inside out in one action. It costs $25 and the replacement bags are stupidly expensive. Almost everyone I know just takes a plastic grocery bag with them when they walk their dog. I don't do that. If the dog shits in a neighbor's yard that I don't like then I give it a kick and try to hit their porch. If it's in someone's yard that I like, I just leave it, out of respect.

Four Types of Lens Units:
The Horseman SW-D Pro lens units come quipped with German Schneider and Rodenstock digital lenses. The shortest focal length, the Schneider Apo-Digitar XL24, is one of four available lens units that include Rodenstock Apo-Sironar digital lenses of 35, 45 and 55mm focal lengths. What's more, Horseman SW series(originally for film cameras) lenses can also be used.
What Is A 'Digital Lens' ?
Digital photography, as opposed to conventional film or "chemical' processes, makes its own demands on the camera lens. A lens optimized for digital should fulfill these conditions:
• 1. The image circle can be smaller, but inside that circle optical resolution and contrast should be as high as possible.
• 2. In conventional large format cameras, optical resolution was considered good if it resulted in about 20 lines per millimeter. In view of the high resolution of today's digital sensors, lens resolution should be several times higher, up to 100 lines per mm.
• 3. Resolution of the digital image drops visibly at stopped-down apertures (f-stops). For digital photography, a lens should be designed to provide optimumMTF at relatively wide apertures.
The Horseman Original Helicoid Mount
The helicoid mount used in the SW-D lens units is a new and original Horseman development designed for highest possible precision. Each model is equipped witha distance scale and a depth-of-field scale for the lens it is used on.

Style, platform, scalability and cost are just some of the issues to think about when planning your home control system.
Wired or wireless?
Wireless systems like Zigbee, Z-Wave and conventional Wi-Fi are easy and inexpensive, but they're subject to roadblocks throughout the house that can impede their signals. Older homes with plaster walls are a particular challenge for wireless systems, as are larger homes with serious distances between floors and rooms. A wired system is always going to work more reliably, which is is goal #1 for a control system. If you haven't built your home yet, consider structured wiring, not only for your IT needs but for expandability into home control. If whole-home wiring isn't practical, check into powerline and/or phone line based systems.
This home features a wireless TaHoma system by Somfy which operates via Z-wave.

Hi-I want to change my old Price Pfister three- handle tub/shower fixtures. I saw replacement handles in the HD catalog. However, can I use a different brand three handle to replace without changing the rough-in? What about the showerhead? Can I use a remodel plate and get the single-handle valve without "taking out the guts"? Thanks so much!
"Fit-all" handles usually don't fit anything very well. Get PricePfister handles. You do have some upgrade options because you can change over to ceramic stems and the various handles available for them.
To go single handle, obviously you must change the entire valve. The remodel plates allow you to cut a reasonable size hole in the wall.

The UN has also recently taken action to create legal environments beneficial to those affected by HIV/AIDS. In July the UN Development Programme (UNDP) [official website] released a study [JURIST report] claiming that laws criminalizing homosexual activity are contributing to the spread of HIV/AIDS in the Asia-Pacific region. The report comes one month after the launch of the Global Commission on HIV and the Law, created by the UNDP and the UNAIDS Secretariat [official websites] in order to better understand the role played by the law [JURIST report] in facilitating universal access to AIDS prevention and treatment. The commission is charged with developing "actionable and evidence-informed recommendations" to create national legal environments with effective and efficient HIV/AIDS responses. UNAIDS strongly opposes any laws that restrict movement based on HIV-positive status, holding that such restrictions are discriminatory and do not prevent HIV transmission or protect public health.
Official corruption has long been a problem in Guatemala. In June, the Guatemalan Constitutional Court [official website, in Spanish] removed Attorney General Conrado Reyes from office after CICIG head Carlos Castresana accused him of ties to organized crime [JURIST reports]. Castresana included the accusation when citing his reasons for resigning from his position. An interim attorney general has been appointed, and Reyes has indicated he will not appeal the decision. In March, following an 11-month investigation with CICIG, Guatemalan authorities arrested two high-ranking police officials [JURIST report] tasked with leading the country's war on drugs on charges of corruption and drug trafficking. Also in March, the US State Department released its 2010 International Narcotics Control Strategy Report [text, PDF], which highlighted Guatemala as a key player in the Latin American drug trade. Corruption among high-ranking officials was cited as one of the country's biggest problems. The Guatemalan Congress voted to create CICIG [JURIST report] in 2007 in order to investigate organized crime and official corruption.
Fonseka is also fighting charges in the High Court of Sri Lanka for allegedly provoking violence and bringing disrepute to the government [JURIST report] in relation to statements made to the Sunday Leader [media website] newspaper. Fonseka suggested that the government of President Mahinda Rajapaksa [BBC profile] ordered the killing of surrendering rebel leaders during the Sri Lankan civil war [JURIST news archive]. In April, Fonseka's trials were postponed [JURIST report] to allow the Court of Appeals of Sri Lanka [official website] to examine the legality of the court-martials.
Last month, the court convicted Marko Boskic [JURIST report] of committing crimes against humanity in the massacre. In June, the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) [official website] convicted seven senior Bosnian Serb officials [JURIST report] of war crimes against Bosnian Muslims committed during the massacre. The ICTY trial of former Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic [case materials; JURIST news archive] is still ongoing. Karadzic is the alleged mastermind behind the violence at Srebrenica. His trial resumed in April after the ICTY dismissed [JURIST report] Kardzic's latest motion to delay court proceedings, in which he argued that there had been a violation of his right to a fair hearing because the court had rejected previous evidentiary challenges. Karadzic's alleged co-conspirator, former Bosnian Serb commander Ratko Mladic [case materials; JURIST news archive] is still at large.
Ahmad, a British citizen, has been incarcerated in the UK since his arrest and is currently awaiting a decision on whether he will be extradited to the US where he faces charges [JURIST report] of terrorism, conspiring to kill Americans and running a website used to fund terrorists and recruit al Qaeda members. In July the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) [official website] stayed the extradition [JURIST report] of Ahmad, holding that potential punishment could violate Human Rights Convention [text] provisions on the prohibition of torture and inhumane or degrading treatment. The court issued the injunction in order to further examine evidence against Ahmad and determine if the US sentencing standards, which includes life sentencing without parole, would lead to an Article 3 violation. The UK High Court approved the extradition [JURIST report] of Ahmad to the US in 2006 after the US offered assurances that it would not seek the death penalty, try the suspects before military tribunals or declare them enemy combatants.
The replacement of the boycotting justices comes amid legal and political controversy over the influence of Ortega and his party. In 2009, a panel of the Supreme Court consisting of members of the Sandinista party struck down a constitutional provision [JURIST report] banning presidential candidates from running for two consecutive terms. Several other Latin American countries have also recently dealt with the controversial issue of extending presidential term limits. In September 2009 the Colombian House of Representatives voted to approve [JURIST report] a bill to hold a referendum on whether President Alvaro Uribe [BBC profile] can run for a third presidential term. In March 2009, then-president of Honduras Manuel Zelaya [BBC profile] proposed a government poll [JURIST report] that would determine whether voters would be receptive to referendum establishing constitutional reform, in which extension of presidential term limits were suspected to be on the agenda.
Last month, Human Rights Watch (HRW) [advocacy website] charged that Chinese authorities used excessive force [JURIST report] in responding to the and tortured those in custody following the demonstrations in violation of international law. In a report, "I Saw It With My Own Eyes" [materials], HRW said that the Chinese government violated the UN Basic Principles on the Use of Force and Firearms by Law Enforcement Officials [text], which limits the use of force to that which is strictly necessary to protect life or to apprehend perpetrators of violent crimes. The Chinese government also violated international law in its handling of suspects held for involvement in the demonstrations by torturing and brutalizing them, not revealing the conditions in which suspects were held and not allowing the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) [advocacy website] to visit them, according to HRW. It went on to call for the Chinese government to release of all Tibetan detainees that have not been charged with a crime and to release accurate statistics about all Tibetans held and about the number of casualties.
Several issues addressed in the Committee's report on France has come under international scrutiny. Last month French President Nicolas Sarkozy [official website, in French] ordered measures [JURIST report] against illegal Roma communities in France and announced new legislation aimed at making their deportation easier. The announcement comes a week after riots by members of the Roma community sparked by the shooting of a young man, resulting in the deployment of 300 troops [DW report]. The government aims to dismantle half of illegal Roma camps in the country within three months and to immediately deport of all those found to have broken the law. Earlier that month, the French National Assembly [official website, in French] approved a bill [JURIST report] that would make it illegal to wear the Islamic burqa [JURIST news archive] or other full face veils in public. Under the legislation, women who wear the veil can be required by police to show their face, and, if they refuse, they can be forced to attend citizenship classes or be charged a USD $185 fine. The proposed legislation would also make it a crime to force a woman to cover her face, with a penalty of one year in prison and a fine of USD $18,555. Amnesty International (AI) [advocacy website] condemned the vote [press release] stating, "A complete ban on the covering of the face would violate the rights to freedom of expression and religion of those women who wear the burqa or the niqab as an expression of their identity or beliefs."
The trial began Tuesday with jury selection after Khadr pleaded not guilty to charges of murder and terrorism [JURIST reports] for allegedly throwing a grenade that killed one US soldier and injured another when he was 15. UN Special Representative for Children and Armed Conflict Radhika Coomaraswamy [official profile] criticized Tuesday's proceedings [press release], arguing the trial would set a dangerous precedent for child soldiers [CFR backgrounder] worldwide. She explained that "[c]hild soldiers must be treated primarily as victims and alternative procedures should be in place aimed at rehabilitation or restorative justice." The trial has also been criticized by Canadian Senator Romeo Dallaire (L-QC) [official website], who has questioned the legitimacy of the proceedings. US military judge Army Colonel Patrick Parrish ruled Monday that the video and confession were admissible at trial. On Friday, the US Supreme Court refused to block the trial, and last month, the US District Court for the District of Columbia refused to lift the stay [JURIST reports] on his habeas corpus petition pending the conclusion of the trial.
DADT is unconstitutional as applied to Lt. Col. Fehrenbach because the government did not offer any evidence ... establishing that discharging Lt. Col. Fehrenbach for engaging in consensual sexual relations with a civilian of the same sex in the privacy of his offbase home significantly furthers the goal of maintaining discipline, good order, morale and unit cohesion. ... The Air Force's evidence was insufficient to meet its heavy burden[.] ... [It] failed to present any evidence ... to support its claim that Lt. Col. Fehrenbach's continued service on active duty would hinder those goals. On the contrary, the evidence establishes that discharging Lt. Col. Fehrenbach would, in fact, be detrimental to morale, good order and discipline, and unit cohesion.
Last month, the US District Court for the Central District of California began the trial in a case challenging [JURIST report] the constitutionality of DADT. Plaintiffs in the case argued that the military policy violates the First Amendment [Cornell LII backgrounder]. Plaintiffs argued that under Lawrence and later precedent, the government must show that an interference with the private life of homosexuals is "necessary to further [important government interests]." In May, the House of Representatives and the Senate Armed Services Committee voted to repeal the policy after a compromise was reached [JURIST reports] that would prevent the repeal from taking effect until the completion of a review to determine what effects it would have on military effectiveness, soldier retention and family readiness. Also in May, A CNN poll [results, PDF] released found that 78 percent of American adults believe that homosexuals should be able to serve openly in the military. In March, Gates announced changes to the enforcement [JURIST report] of the policy to make it more difficult to expel openly gay service members from the military.
Numerous lawsuits are pending against BP in connection with the Deepwater Horizon spill. In July, a class-action lawsuit [complaint, PDF; JURIST report] was filed against the company in a Louisiana state court alleging that its negligent actions led to the spill and that BP was further negligent in its oversight of the cleanup effort, resulting in volunteers falling ill due to inadequate protective equipment. In June, two lawsuits were filed against BP [JURIST report] alleging violations of the Racketeer Influenced Corrupt Organizations (RICO) [18 USC § 1961 et seq.] statute. The lawsuits allege that BP purposefully defrauded the American public in order to increase company profits. Also in June, Attorney General Eric Holder [official website] announced that the US Department of Justice (DOJ) [official website] is reviewing whether any civil or criminal laws were violated [JURIST report] by BP resulting in the oil spill. Earlier this week BP and the DOJ announced the completion of negotiations over the implementation of a $20 billion fund [JURIST report] to aid victims of the oil spill. At the completion of the deal, BP made a $3 billion initial deposit into the fund, with another $2 billion planned for the fourth fiscal quarter of 2010.
The measures used under the PTA have created a parallel, unfair and secretive shadow justice system for individuals who are suspected of terrorism-related activity. The effect of the control order regime has been to bypass the ordinary justice system ... The secret court procedures in control order hearings undermine the individual's right to a fair hearing and the restrictions the control order imposes on a person can amount to a deprivation of liberty.
The group recommends that the UK government repeal the PTA "immediately," commit to using the normal criminal justice system to prosecute suspected terrorists and make legal remedies available to those whose liberties may have been wrongfully constrained by control orders.
Uncertainty regarding how control orders fit in the UK's conventional justice system and the human rights impact they carry continues to generate controversy. Last month, the UK Court of Appeal [official website] ruled [decision text; JURIST report] that two terrorism suspects could sue the government for damages over wrongfully imposed control orders. In June, the UK Supreme Court ruled [JURIST report] that a control order requiring an anonymous appellant to live 150 miles away from his family and operate under a 16-hour curfew violated his rights under the European Convention of Human Rights (EHCR) [text]. In September, then-Home Secretary Alan Johnson [BBC profile] said the government would undertake a review [JURIST report] of the system. Johnson issued a ministerial statement [text] saying that his "current assessment is ... that the control order regime remains viable," but that he would "be keeping this assessment under review." In October 2007, the UK Law Lords ruled in a series of decisions that the government can continue to impose control orders [JURIST report] on terror suspects in lieu of detention, but said that some elements of the orders violate human rights.

Like a fantastic hybrid of some very useful furniture pieces from the sideboard to the baker's rack to the kitchen island, the potting bench is built for function. Think of it as an extra helper in the backyard. When the time comes to pot new flowers, or prune your bonsai trees, a potting bench makes the job more comfortable. Wide work surfaces are brought to your level so you can forget about having to squat in the dirt. Shelves keep pots handy, hooks hold your tools, and shelves keep potting soil in easy reach. The more features on the potting bench, the more helpful it will be in your gardening tasks.
Potting Bench Parties
But the really cool thing about the potting bench is what it can do after sunset. Wisk away the dirt, tuck away the trowels, and dress this item up with a table runner, some outdoor lanterns, and pretty serve ware and you've got an excellent drink or appetizer station for your next outdoor party. Hang a few strings of fun lights and stock it with adult beverages and you've got an instant poolside bar.
Brunch, Lunch, and More
Your potting bench can be used for daytime entertaining, too. Place it near your patio dining table and make it part of your outdoor brunch buffet. Some potting benches even have a built in "sink" that would be perfect for filling with ice to keep drinks cold for guests. It also makes an excellent food preparation spot for backyard barbecues.
How Entertaining
So what other ways are there to use a potting bench? The possibilities are only limited by your imagination. Place the guest book on your potting bench at your graduation open house. Pile it high with presents at your child's birthday party. Set up a cheese spread at your next wine tasting. Pull up a stool and work on your model car in the sunshine.
And Don't Forget …
This bench is made for potting. It may look so pretty that you'll be afraid to get it dirty, but don't be. Play in the dirt. Dig, cultivate, prune, and water. Potting benches are built to handle the rigors of gardening. Once you've discovered the convenience of owning one, what used to feel like a chore will quickly turn into a hobby.

Awh, How Cute: A Little LEGO Nintendo
This is a little Nintendo Flickr user Arkov made using LEGO pieces. As you can see, it's fairly simple. I didn't actually bother counting the number of blocks it took, but given a quick glance, I'd estimate somewhere in the six to eight range. Few enough for even you to be able to make one. Just kidding, you'd probably end up eating all the pieces. Which.....HEY, PUT THAT HELMET BACK ON!

Bloomington's historic Second Baptist Church was full of dynamic, inspirational conversation about worship in predominately African-American churches Tuesday evening. Attendees were welcomed into the "Why I Sing Amazing Grace: The African American Worship Experience" event with warm sounds of the Martin Luther King Community Gospel Choir. Freshman Jordan Canary attended the event for an assignment for a journalism class. Canary said she had never attended an African-American church. "I didn't really know what I was expecting," she said. "I didn't really know anything about it."WTIU's Shameka Neely moderated the conversation between four panelists from across Indiana. They discussed the importance of distinct music, deep faith and the evolution of black church culture.Panelist Dennis Laffoon, reverend at the Bethel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Bloomington, offered insight about different faiths among black churches. "I don't think faith changes from church to church," he said. "I think churches worship to the beat of a different drum. In a black church, no matter where you go in the nation, there are some traditional things that you are going to experience."Panelist Michael Joseph Brown, director of the Malcolm X Institute of Black Studies at Wabash College, said the black church "is resiliently African.""Regardless of the structure, we have embraced it and made it our own," he said.Although not initially arranged as part of Black History Month, the event has become a signature program."It was just a really good experience, being emerged in a different church and a different way of worship," Canary said. "It is a totally different atmosphere than what I'm accustomed to."Want to see the event?A broadcast of Tuesday's discussion will air at 5:30 p.m. and 11 p.m. Feb. 26 and at 11 p.m. March 1 on WTIU.— Morgan Smith

Critic scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating more favorable reviews.
Don't see this movie if you have a weak stomach, or if you don't like movies that mix horror-movie violence and cornball humor. Don't see if it you're expecting production values beyond a couple of vehicles, a farmhouse and about twelve buckets of gore. Don't see this movie if your definition of a great or classic film is one that bowls you over with the importance of its subject or the awesome scope of its vision. Do see if it you want to be be reminded that it's possible to make a relaxed, engrossing, funny, sometimes scary movie on almost no money. Read full review
Everything is so bizarre and deadpan, the humor just sort of sneaks up on you, until you're laughing without even meaning to. It's a neat mix of subtlety and over-the-top bloodshed, with everything played with a straight face. Read full review
At its best, though not often enough, 100 Bloody Acres is as mercurial as its central character, breezily offbeat one moment, spattered in gonzo gore the next. It's as if the filmmakers ground the bits of other movies fine enough that it made a rich foundation for their own. Read full review
With a fun post-credits gag to round it off, 100 Bloody Acres is great summer counterprogramming for anyone who wants to unwind with a bit of bloody fun and goofball gore. Read full review
Melbourne-based brothers Cameron and Colin Cairnes show impressive discipline in their modestly budgeted feature debut, mixing gore and chuckles in equal measure and creating unusually fleshed-out characters that have the film knocking at the door of above-average splatter comedies like "Shaun of the Dead" and "The Cabin in the Woods." Read full review
One sees a film called 100 Bloody Acres expecting the requisite allusions to The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, but an homage to the best scene in Melvin and Howard comes as something of a shock. Read full review

beautiful accessories
Although this was a gift for someone, I wanted it to match the ring she had already recieved from here. However when I saw it I was a bit disappointed because the picture shows it a very light stone, and it was almost navy. My daughter still loved it and the earrings were just perfect also.
She loves this necklace
It is a beautiful piece and when I received it, it was far better then the picture. I know my wife will love it.
Love the color and pendant, chain could be a little fancier.
I love the London Blue color and as always my items were delivered promptly, however, I wish you had a reasonable small bracelet to match, I don't wear earrings!
She LOVES it. Goes perfect with the earrings.
I had already purchased the matching earrings. The pendant is a perfect match.
Made a Lovely Anniversary Gift
The stone is a darker blue that what is depicted online but it still looks nice.
I love it so much I bought 4 :)
I loved this necklace so much, I made my wedding color theme match it and I bought one for all the women in my wedding :)
Very Nice
This is a nice everyday necklace, but I also think it can be dressed up. It is a great simple concept that I think is still very elegant. It lay nicely on the neck. The stone was not too small or too large.
Beautiful simplicity
Love the color of the stone and the necklace is great to wear on it's own or layer with other jewlery/necklaces as well. The stone is a good size - only wish.. a better clasp on the necklace - it is small and sometimes hard to get on on the 1st attempt.
Bought this for her birthday and she really loved it!
Thank you, as always great value and superior service!
My wife absolutely loves it!
Another great piece of jewelry from Blue Nile! This is my third (at least) purchase from BN and they've once again exceeded my expectations.
Love the color of London blue topaz
Nice, beautiful color and size. I wish the chain was more delicate. Not sure how this stands out compared to cubic zirconia that one finds in the mall
Got this piece for my girlfriend. She loved it! lol, I would love to get a green one in the future, we'll see
Exactly what I wanted
I have had been imagining a blue topaz necklace in a simple design for a long time but had not found anything just right. The London Blue Topaz is exactly what I have been envisioning. The color is the gorgeous blue I wanted. It looks as perfect with my jeans as it does with my little black dress.

The Toronto Maple Leafs' slide out of a playoff position has cost head coach Ron Wilson his job.
The club relieved Wilson of his duties on Friday evening after nearly four seasons in Toronto. Taking over for Wilson will be former Anaheim Ducks coach Randy Carlyle.
The Leafs, who only have one win in their last 11 games, have fallen out of a playoff spot, and currently sit in 12th place in the Eastern Conference.
"This was not an easy decision for me to make," general manager Brian Burke said in a statement. "I want to thank Ron for all of his hard work and dedication to our organization over the past four seasons."
The move comes just a few months after Wilson was given a one-year contract extension in late December.
Carlyle, who has signed a contract with the team for three years after this season, has a history with Burke, as the two were together during the Ducks Stanley Cup title in 2007.
Carlyle was replaced by Bruce Boudreau as head coach of the Ducks last December after the team opened the season with a 7-13-4 record.
"He's not a sensitive guy and he's not going to hug you after you come off the ice after a bad shift," NHL on TSN analyst Keith Jones said on Friday. "This is a tough, hard-nosed hockey coach that knows how to win."
"All the things that Brian Burke wanted from a hockey club when he came and talked about what he wanted to do with the Maple Leafs, that's the way Randy Carlyle's teams play." former Carolina Hurricanes and Maple Leafs coach Paul Maurice said on the NHL on TSN. "You saw it in Anaheim, very physical."
"They played a mean game, a hard game."
NHL on NBC studio analyst Jeremy Roenick was on the Team 1040 Radio in Vancouver and said that he was surprised by the change. The former NHL'er also stated that he felt things were going to get tougher for the current Leafs.
"All those players in the Maple Leafs locker room are going to wish they played harder and more correctly for Ron Wilson," Roenick said.
Chants of "Fire Wilson!" echoed through Air Canada Centre when the Maple Leafs fell 5-3 to the Florida Panthers on (Tuesday) Feb. 28. The game marked Wilson's 1,400th career NHL game coached, tying him with Pat Quinn for fourth on the all-time list.
Hired in 2008, Wilson was unable to guide the Maple Leafs to the playoffs during his tenure. The team currently owns the NHL's second-longest playoff drought at seven years.
Wilson recorded a 34-35-13 mark in his first season as head coach with the Maple Leafs, the club finishing 12th in the Eastern Conference. The following year, the team posted a 30-38-14 record and finished last in the Conference. Last season, Wilson had his first winning season with the Maple Leafs, going 37-34-11, which was good enough for 10th in the Conference.
Through 64 games this season, the Maple Leafs have 65 points and a 29-28-7 record. Wilson leaves the Toronto with a 130-135-45 record overall with the Leafs.
Carlyle becomes the 16th man to have both played for the Maple Leafs and then taken on the reins as the team's coach.
The Maple Leafs also announced that assistant coach Rob Zettler has been reassigned to other duties within the organization.
Martin St. Louis is a Ranger, Matt Moulson is a member of the Minnesota Wild and the Montreal Canadiens have Thomas Vanek. Look back at all the big name deals that went down.

The city of Amsterdam is continuing to try to bring good out of bad. As our Maria Valvanis explains, recent tragedy, will soon be remembered as the push the city needed, to gain prosperity.
AMSTERDAM, N.Y. -- "Main goal is to change the entire city, sounds big, but in order to do big, you have to think big," said Calvin Martin, Paul Damphier's cousin.
It's been two weeks since Calvin Martin learned his sixteen year old cousin Paul Damphier, and thirteen year old Jonathan DeJesus, had been killed. Two of their former classmates, sixteen year old Anthony Brasmiester, and fifteen-year-old Matthew Phelps have been charged with the murders.
Now, a combined committee of family, friends, and Lt. Richardson, of the Amsterdam Police Department, wants to ensure, the city offers teens enough safe activities, to bring crime rates down.
"These kids are falling through the cracks, we have to do something," said Lt. Richardson. "We're trying to come up with a bunch of different events, and ideas, to reach out to these kids, and try to get them involved and come together," said Casey Martin, Damphier's cousin.
The committee is going door to door, asking for donations, to start a city youth group.They want to offer sporting tournaments, paint the city days, and any other event teens show interest in, all for free.
"I think that they're starting to see the city's starting to reach out a little bit, things are lingering, people are starting to get involved, and the kids respect that, and the kids are going to react to that," said Calvin Martin.
The tragedy has also sparked an initiative to get more residents involved in neighborhood watch programs. Something members say, can only help prevent something like this, from happening again."
"It's just going to bring attention to the problem areas, and when you have attention paid to the problems, they tend to get lesser," said Timothy Becker, a neighborhood watch member.
Lt. Richardson tells us, the success of both groups will be based of off good communication.
"If we can bring children together for a positive reason, and we can get neighbors out of their house and get to know each other I think you tear down these walls ,these prejudices, that we know exist, but don't necessarily get tackled," said Lt. Richardson. "He's happy, I know if he were here, he'd be one of the first kids to show up," said Casey Martin.
If you would like to get involved or donate to either group, please contact Lt. Richardson at the Amsterdam Police Department at (518) 842-1100.

This week's Toddler Sleep Question for The Sleep Lady: "I have made the mistake of rocking my now 13 month old to sleep. If I attempt to put him in his crib sleepy but awake he will stand and start crying. If I try to lie him back down or soothe him without picking him up he only gets madder. Any advice on breaking the habit of rocking to sleep? He wakes several times a night and will not go back to sleep unless he is rocked to sleep and will often wake when I try to put him back down. My husband and I get about 4 hours of sleep a night. I can't do this anymore and need your help!!" -Seneca Dear Seneca- It sounds like your son is finally on to you! You can no longer trick him by rocking him and putting him in to the crib asleep. This day was going to come and now it's time to address it head on! Start on a day of good naps (any way you can get them) which for his age means a total of 2.5 hrs. Then plan on an early enough bedtime – usually between 7-7:30pm at his age. Make sure you have a nice, long and comforting bedtime routine. You can incorporate a wee bit of walking or rocking in it; just don't let it be the sleep crutch. A few minutes in the rocking chair while you read a book, or a brief... more
Tips for When More than One Child or Baby Won't Sleep
What can you do when your baby won't sleep? Many tired parents call me for help in getting all their children to sleep better! Some are upset that they have repeated a negative sleep habit with their second child and others find their level of sleep deprivation from having two children up at night who won't sleep more than they can bear. All of these parents notice that it is affecting their mood, their marriage and their children's temperaments. I remind these parents that is never too late to improve your children's sleep habits-yes, it may take longer with an older child and or be more challenging to sleep coach two children than one-but not impossible! I will not be able to give all the details of how to sleep coach more than one child in this article. I am hoping this article will compliment my book and help parents when baby won't sleep, and who are already familiar with my Shuffle techniques. There are many variations on sleep problems with more than one child so I will try to briefly address as many as I can. Here goes! When Baby Won't Sleep: Separate Bedrooms and Sleep Coaching More Than One Child If your children are in separate bedrooms then you can sleep coach them both using my Shuffle techniques at... more
How to End Night Feedings After Six Months Old
The most common problem by far that I have encountered with children and behavioral sleep disorders is that most children who experience problems falling asleep have never learned to fall asleep without a breast or bottle in their mouths. This problem of needing this sleep crutch (noshing to fall asleep) compounds as they get older and no longer physically need a bottle or breast before going to sleep. As they become toddlers, they are not equipped with the necessary tools and habits to put themselves to sleep. The good news is that it's never too late to address the problem of baby feeding at night and remedy it. I decided to address this topic after several requests were sent to Snooze Week asking for help with this issue. I may have "bitten off more than I can chew" though (ha ha), as this topic is so immense, based on your child's present individual habits and age. Therefore, I must begin this article by saying all of these general suggestions are for healthy children over the age of six months who have recently been to a doctor that has eliminated any health reasons for needing to eat in the middle of the night. Let's begin by addressing your child's hunger clock, making sure she is taking in most of her... more
Creating A Secure Mother-Baby Attachment
Many of the families Peter and I have worked with in our practices tell us they have been influenced by literature referring to "attachment theory". I spent some time writing about this in "Good Night, Sleep Tight", but I thought it would be helpful to write more about how to create a balanced, secure mother-baby attachment with your child. We will start with sharing a case example (names and details have been changed). It was Wednesday afternoon when Karen arrived for her first visit. She was in her early thirties, married, attractive, college educated, well spoken and successful in her career outside the home. She talked about all the positive things happening in her life. Karen had a lot going for her. She had a happy marriage, a healthy 6 month old daughter that she and her husband had longed for, rewarding work, a comfortable home life and good friends. I asked Karen what brought her into therapy. Tears began to roll down her cheeks and she said, "I am embarrassed to say this, but I don't know how to mother my child. I am not sure what I am doing. I am afraid that I am messing up my daughter and she will not love me. I want to bond and have a loving relationship with her, but I have no idea how to do it." Having... more
"My Baby Fights Sleep" – Sleep Coaching the Super Alert Child
Sometimes I hear parents --those who haven't tried my system predict that it could not possibly work for their child, that it would only work for "easy" or "mellow" babies. It can work for all children - including some babies, toddlers and preschoolers with special emotional needs or physical challenges. Patience and consistency are important for sleep-shaping with any child, but are particularly essential in dealing with these more alert or spirited youngsters. If your child has a physical disorder or disease, work with your doctors to address it, and then use my system to help your child catch up on the sleep-learning he or she missed during his illness. It¡¦s been a useful approach even for children with serious diseases like cystic fibrosis. Sleep Coaching the Super Alert Child It's true that some unusually alert, bright and aware babies and toddlers do have a little more trouble learning to sleep. These children often reach physical milestones, like walking, on the early side. They tend to have slightly disturbed sleep as well. Temperamentally, they may be the kind of children who know what they want and when they want it, and are willing to hold out until they get it. That¡¦s a great quality in an adult... more

I've got something weird going on with my washer. I ran a load the other day, went to move it to the dryer and it was full of water. Spun the dial a few times, but it wouldn't pump out or spin, no noise, no power to motor. So I went to work... 1. Lid switch works fine. Tested with ohm meter 2. Water level switch works fine. Tested with ohm meter 3. Will fill and agitate I moved the hose to the floor drain and drained it. Played around with spinning the dial and found on Permanent Press setting, it will spin and drain... but only some times. So... 4. Motor works, pump works and is not blocked. Spinning the dial, some times it will go into pump out and spin, some times it will not, but only on the Permanent Press setting setting, not the Cotton/Sturdy setting. However, only if I'm manual spinning the dial, not on it's own. I'm guessing that it is the Timer/Dial Switch that may be worn out/broken. However, do the capacitors for the motor ever go bad? Thanks for your help and hopefully saving me $400-1000. |

I got my new timer in yesterday. I pulled the old one out and took it apart. One of the contact relays on the timing wheel must of taken an electric surge. The relay was charred, the plastic timer wheel was melted in spots, and the copper contact was now white and corroded. It didn't conduct when tested with an ohm meter. The new timer is working perfectly. Thanks for your help and fast response! |

By now you'll have heard all about Office 2007, and you'll hopefully heard about what it does, perhaps seen it, and you may even have used it. One question I'm asked is "What does it mean for schools?"
In addition to the main UK Education website's section on Office 2007, there's also now a new brochure (below), which includes an overview of how it helps from both a teaching & learning and administration & coordination perspective. My favourite section is the middle-page spread which contains screenshots showing what some of the main new features can do - like easy colour coding of spreadsheet cells, and the new SmartArt. And it also contains a case study from Stoke College in Essex - the first school in Europe to use Office 2007 across all of their systems.
If you'd like us to send you copies of the brochure, just pop us an email, using the Email link in the header of this page.
When did Stoke College deploy Office 2007? Harold Wood Primary school (also in Essex) deployed it in December 2006.
Anyway, a lot of our schools would like to deploy Office 2007, but it is not officially compatible with SIMS yet according to Capita. So they are having to delay deployment despite having the licensing and tools already in place.
Hi "K",
Stoke College were the first we heard of in the UK, and when we asked our European colleagues about their early deployments, they didn't have any earlier than Stoke. Hence the tag First to deploy in Europe.
David Moss @ Stoke deployed in December 2006, as a pilot (you can read his story here).
I'd love to hear of other schools that deployed, and their experiences (use the Email tab at the top of the page).
