In 1987, a heavily Jewish Long Island community was roiled by horrific allegations that seemingly innocent after-school computer classes had in fact been the nightmarish scene of repeated acts of violent, mass sexual abuse against children. The case, which became the subject of a 2003 Oscar-nominated documentary, shattered the façade of affluent suburban Jewish life and sent a father and son to prison for years.
Now, 25 years after the case broke and nine years after the controversial film "Capturing the Friedmans" first raised serious questions about how the investigation was handled, additional information is coming to light that suggests the convictions may have been wrongful. In fact, four of the 14 original complainants now claim they were never abused.
In August 2010, Nassau County District Attorney Kathleen Rice announced that her office would be launching a review into the 1988 conviction of Jesse Friedman, who, along with his father Arnold, pleaded guilty to several hundred counts of sexual abuse against more than a dozen children allegedly committed in the computer classes Arnold held in the family's Great Neck home.
Jesse was released from prison in 2001 after serving 13 years of an 18-year sentence; Arnold committed suicide in prison in 1995.
If Rice's review concludes that the evidence does not support the conviction, her office can join a motion by Jesse Friedman's lawyers to have it vacated.
While Rice's inquiry — which is not a criminal investigation and thus has no power to subpoena witnesses— had appeared to have stalled, the makers of "Capturing the Friedmans" recently submitted new materials to the district attorney indicating that four of the alleged victims were never abused.
Jesse Friedman, now 43, has long maintained his innocence despite his guilty plea, and the fact that he reiterated his guilt on Geraldo Rivera's talk show immediately following his conviction. He has claimed that the circumstances of his family life — his father was an admitted pedophile under investigation for sending child pornography in the mail — as well as the climate in the community and statements by the judge at the time made him feel he had no choice but to take the deal or face spending the rest of his life in jail.
Rice's inquiry into Friedman's conviction came on the heels of what has been hailed as an extraordinary decision by the Second Circuit Court of Appeals in August of 2010. In January of 2004, Friedman filed a motion in Nassau County court to overturn his conviction on the basis that the prosecution failed to turn over potentially exculpatory material to the defense. The Nassau County district attorney opposed the motion, a decision that Friedman appealed all the way up to the Second Circuit. While the Court denied as a matter of law Friedman's bid to withdraw his guilty plea, it nonetheless urged the prosecution to re-examine the conviction, which it suggested had a "reasonable likelihood" of being wrongful.
The judges placed the Friedman case in the context of what they described as a "vast moral panic [that] fueled a series of highly-questionable child sex abuse prosecutions" that took place in the late 1980s and early '90s and noted numerous problems with the investigation that were first revealed through interviews in the film. Among them were the fact that there were no complaints from any children until after Arnold was caught by U.S. postal inspectors, a complete lack of physical evidence for what were alleged to be instances of violent sodomy, and what the Court called "suggestive" and "aggressive" interviewing techniques which "an extensive body of research suggests can induce false reports."
Further, because there was no trial, the Court also noted that the "petitioner never had an opportunity to explore how the evidence against him was obtained" and that, "on the contrary, the police, prosecutors and the judge did everything they could to coerce a guilty plea and avoid a trial."
According to the film's producer, Marc Smerling, he and director Andrew Jarecki got "reinvigorated" by the Second Circuit's decision and began "reconnecting with people [we had reached out to] for the film, and connecting with others [for the first time] to get a clearer picture of their experiences in the classes."
They have now spoken with five of the original 14 complainants and seven non-complainant computer students who sat alongside them in the classes. Four of the complainants, now in their 30s, told the filmmakers that they were never abused. The fifth, who was interviewed in the film, reiterated claims made in his original interview in 2001 that he had no recollection of any abuse until after he was hypnotized. Transcripts of some of these conversations were shared with The Jewish Week.
One complainant — whose grand jury testimony resulted in more than 10 charges, including sodomy, sexual abuse and endangering the welfare of a child — said: "I remember the cops coming to my house and the cops being aggressive and people wanting me to say what they wanted to hear. I'll tell you, I never said I was sodomized. I was never raped or molested ... if I said it, it was not because it happened, it was because someone else put those words in my mouth."
One of the non-complainants who attended the same course that produced 96 counts of sodomy and sexual abuse told the filmmakers that he had a "vague recollection of being interviewed at the time by someone who was trying to get me to say something that didn't happen. … I always assumed that if something was going on in the classes, I would have had some sense of it, and I didn't," he said, adding that "[p]eople who were in class with me always felt that they weren't allowed to say that nothing happened."
Another non-complainant noted that he remembered "the police visiting my home and … being very intimidating, like to the point where one of the cops was sitting on my couch and his pant leg was up and I could see his gun. I was very insistent that nothing ever happened to me, and that never seemed to be good enough as a response. … Nothing happened to me, and I saw none of that stuff."
The Jewish Week also spoke to the mother of a boy who attended a class that produced 23 counts of sexual abuse against Jesse Friedman. The mother — who requested anonymity for fear of being "run out of town" by a few people who are "still uber sensitive" about the case, but who said she would allow her taped interview to be shared with the district attorney — told The Jewish Week that she always thought that "this wasn't exactly right."
"I would go into the classroom [all the time] and pick my kid up and say 'ooh, what did you do today on the computer?' and everything seemed fine," she continued. "If something had happened, don't you think the kids would have been upset? They wouldn't have been sitting at the computer playing games like nothing happened."
The mother also recounted how she came home one day to find two police officers in her living room. While the officers assured her that they had not yet spoken to her then 11-year-old son, they told her they wanted to question him about the classes. According to the mother, the officers "started to grill him … they hammered him for a while, [asking] him the same question 95 times in different ways. After a while I said, 'I [almost] wanted to confess to something.'"
While her son "stuck to his guns," the mother claims she "never believed anything after that interview, because I could see how they could drag stuff out of kids that didn't happen."
Rice's office has declined to comment on the new information, citing its ongoing review, but a spokesman noted that they are "encouraging anyone who has any information about the case to come forward."
Attempts by The Jewish Week to reach Frances Galasso, the retired detective-sergeant in charge of the case, were not successful. However, Galasso recently told Newsday that "No one was ever forced to do or say anything." Galasso also told that paper that she has been "interviewed at some length by Rice's staff."
The Jewish Week did reach retired judge Abbey Boklan, who presided over the Friedman case and was quoted in the film as saying that there "was never a doubt in my mind as to [Jesse's] guilt.
In response to a request for comment about the new claims by the four men who were once alleged to be victims, Judge Boklan told The Jewish Week that "I think we should wait for the DA's report to finish. I have no interest in getting involved at this point."
For his part, Jesse Friedman is hopeful about the review, but also frustrated. "I gave the DA the benefit of the doubt when I started this [in 2010], [but] how much longer do I have to continue fighting this?" he told The Jewish Week.
"We have given the DA's office a tremendous amount of exonerating evidence. People have come forward to say they were never hurt, they never witnessed anyone hurt."
"What am I fighting to win?" he continued. "I am fighting because the truth is important. I am not fighting to get out of prison or to get off death row. I am fighting because I am innocent and what happened to me should never have happened. How much more is it going to take to prove my innocence? Whatever it takes. I am never going to stop fighting to prove my innocence, not just for me but for everyone who was hurt by the hysteria and false accusations."

Kathleen Rice and her team at the Nassau County Attorney's Office have done a truly magnificent job of investigating this case. I'm a private investigator and Jesse's guilt has now been conclusively proven. Jesse is on a campaign to shed doubt on his confessions, conviction and 13 year prison term. This recent and unexpected report by Nassau County details and refutes all suggestions of this. It's one of the most complete and thorough investigations I have read in my 27 years of this work and this department has done a true service to all victims involved.
If you are interested in the final truth of this case, please do yourself a favor and read the Nassau County's report. It puts to bed even the most remote sliver of Jesse's innocence. Here it is:
I read the entire report and annexes this week. I had been an advocate and was completely indignant
after seeing the movie. At that time I wanted to ask Judge Boklan and Det. Fran Galasso "How can you sleep
at night?!?!"
After reading this well-organized report which puts to rest 99 percent of my concerns and really points my suspicion toward the filmmakers later choices of action, I only have this to say:
Judge Boklan and Det. Galasso, please accept my sincere apologies!
jesse friedman is so guilty it's not even funny
got proof.....?
Judge Boklan- "I know jesse and arnold friedman were guilty, I know they pleaded guilty in my courtroom" I have paraphrased. Anyhow, Judges know darn well that guilty pleas are done very often for reasons other than guilt. And Judge Boklan(am I spelling her name correctly?) is upset because she presided over an obvious miscarriage of justice and most reasonable people who are familiar with the case know it. The geraldo jail thing is exactly like the guilty pleas: it was given because he mistakenly thought it would get him out of jail quicker.
The heartbreaking thing in all of this is that the police will never even be reprimanded for their illegal activities. Trying to intimidate an 11 year old boy is a shameful act, and the alleged man should be ashamed to face his own children. Peace.
Judge Abbey Boklan and Detective Frances Galasso are a disgrace to their professions. It is scary to know that these are the types of people running our justice system. The state of New York owes Jesse a public apology and a very large check. They stole his youth and destroyed his family.
Anyone with a modicum of common sense and intelligence knows that Jesse Friedman is innocent and had no choice but to plead guilty to crimes that never even occurred. The only people who think Friedman is guilty don't know the facts of the case or have a vested interest in making sure Friedman's conviction is upheld (Hello Nassau County, are you reading this?).
People plead guilty all the time to crimes they didn't commit--that's why it's called a plea bargain. It is utterly naive to think that only the guilty plead guilty.
The Friedmans were railroaded by hysteria perpetuated by the police, judge & community. The majority of mass-sex abuse hysteria cases have proven to be false and have since been overturned over the last several decades.
Anyone who continues to believe the DA's office and Newsday needs to stop drinking the Kool-Aid and start using their common sense.
Its obvious he was guilty. He confessed on TV and plead guilty. There was a third defendant. His victims as adults continue to say they were abused. Child abusers are known to deny their crimes and recant. The movie obviously misrepresented the case. Let's hear the real truth about the case.
Stop posting stuff that happened 20 years ago - all of it was fake and came under pressure. In the environment in Great Neck, NY at the time, everyone believed the abuse happened and Jesse Friedman had to say he did something or face an even worse trial -- EVEN IF HE DID NOT ABUSE ANYONE. He spent over a decade in prison, during his twenties, over something his father did. He can't get that time back but maybe people can be brave and admit he didn't abuse them so he can stop being afraid.
How very sad. The countless destroyed families, and the suicide of the father may have been prevented via a different approach. We must show more compassion, in our everyday approaches. Though we may be justified in our feelings, once we publicly discuss, shame, villainy another human being it is nearly impossible to undo.
On the Geraldo show in 1989, Jesse described his own abuse by his father which started at around age 8 (his father would fondle him while reading him bedtime stories) and progressed to sodomy. Jesse told in explicit detail how he and his father abused the children during computer classes and Jesse helped "keep the children in line" during the classes. When asked why the children never told, Jesse replied: "For the same reason I never told." Jesse went on to reveal that he and his father threatened the children by telling them that they would "hunt down" their parents and burn their houses down if they talked. Several parents of the the victims are interviewed. They note that the Friedmans also threatened to send explicit sexual pictures of the children to area newspapers and television stations. Jesse explains that child porn was his father's "hobby" and admits that he posed for 100s of photographs and videos in which he sexually abused the children. Geraldo notes that Jesse told him the names of some of his father's friends with whom he traded child porn.
There was a third defendant in the case. Although he was not mentioned in the film "Capturing the Friedmans," Mr. Goldstein was a third defendant who was arrested along with Arnold and Jesse Friedman. According to this document, Goldstein, a former friend of Jesse's who was between 15 and 16 years old when he committed the crimes. He later became repulsed by the abuse, and six months before the Friedmans were arrested, Goldstein disassociated himself from Jesse Friedman and his activities. Goldstein, now age 19, confessed to the crimes and agreed to testify against both Arnold and Jesse Friedman in exchange for leniency.
Jesse pleaded guilty. He backed up his plea on TV.
Regarding the men who are now recanting: it is not unusual for male victims of male-upon-male sexual abuse to recant, as male-upon-male sexual abuse is considered especially shameful. These men want to go on with their lives without the stigma of sexual abuse, hence their change of heart now that they are adults and feel safe.
Jesse is guilty as charged.
In 2004, several of the victims came forward describing their abuse in Newsday.
"For Gregory, the hullabaloo over Jarecki's film -- and whether the director will pick up an Oscar tonight -- is a sideshow to the legacy of the abuse. Even now, Gregory said he sometimes wakes up at night shaking, especially after hearing of other child abuse cases on the news or elsewhere. What would be passing news to others, hits home for him.
"Diagnosed in his preteen years, Gregory said he has persistent rectal bleeding from the abuse. Memories aside, the physical scar will never let him forget. `This is the constant reminder I live with every day,' Gregory said, `that I was abused.'"
""We don't want the acclaim of this movie to keep other young boys who are being secretly abused silent for fear that their stories won't be believed. We don't want adults who might listen to the children turn a deaf ear, having seen the film and say, `These children are probably lying or exaggerating just like those Friedman victims in the movie.' We did not lie. We did not exaggerate. We were never hypnotized to tell our stories ... We told the truth then and we are telling the truth now."
In the New York Times: New York Times reporter Sharon Waxman notes that "Capturing The Friedmans" is being criticized by six of their former victims, who say the film omitted or distorted important information about their cases. "The six are suggesting that the director, Andrew Jarecki, created more ambiguity than actually existed about the case both to heighten the dramatic impact of the film and to elicit sympathy for the Friedmans."

However the only temperature displayed is on the base unit which is tied to the thermometer probe itself and is at the cooker. The wireless remote "pager" simply beeps when the temperature set point is reached. Not really what I was looking for. However the device is well made and the base unit is nice - the pager is OK however it's of no use if you want to monitor the temperature as the cook progresses. I still think the initial sentence in the product description is somewhat misleading.

Urban LandMark presence at SAPOA convention improves programme's exposure in commercial property market
To add substance to the notion of defining what makes markets work for the poor, in an urban land context, one of Urban Landmark's priority areas of engagement is the commercial property market. To improve the programme's exposure within this particular market, Urban Landmark participated in the exhibition at the 2009 Convention of the South African Property Owners Association (SAPOA), held at the International Convention Centre in Durban from 3 - 5 June 2009.
SAPOA was established in 1966 by the leading property investment organisations to bring together all role players in the commercial property field and create a powerful platform for property investors. The association is committed to protecting the interests of the commercial and industrial property sectors, in terms of ownership, management and development.
Some of the main sponsors and participants at this year's convention included Nedbank Corporate, Investec, Tongaat Hulett, the Department of Human Settlements, JHI, Plascon, and many others. Urban LandMark's stand at the Conference was small but well designed and strategically placed. The stand was mainly manned by Lerato Ndjwili-Potele (administrative executive officer), with Jonathan Diederiks (programme manager) and Mark Napier (programme director) in supporting roles.
According to Jonathan, the stand was very popular, possibly due to its novel identity as an NGO amongst the commercial property 'bigwigs'. "Our name and subject matter also attracted a lot of attention, with most people asking us to explain a bit more about what Urban LandMark is and what it does," he says.
"From the enquiries and discussions it was evident that research into urban-centred development, tenure issues, and the engagement of the poor by commercial developers is somewhat lacking," Mark points out. "It was also clear that, although commercial property owners and developers have a predominantly business- orientated approach, they are not unwilling to engage with other stakeholders; they are just not sure how this could or should happen."
"Our presence at the conference was well worth it, and had the desired result of improving our exposure, not only as an entity but also as a potential service provider to commercial property owners and developers," Mark concludes.

SAN FRANCISCO — Google made its fledgling Google Cloud Platform for making and running apps more developer-friendly today, by launching a series of tools that speed up discovery of problems and improve monitoring.
At the developer-centric Google I/O conference today, Greg DeMichillie, director of product management on the Google Cloud Platform, demonstrated Cloud Save, Cloud Debugger, and Cloud Trace.
Cloud Save, DeMichillie said, "is a new simple API (application programming interface) that lets me save and retrieve per-user information." That could include settings or preferences for each user.
Cloud Debugger shows all the calls an application in Google's cloud is making to external services. That drill-down is the first step; from there, a developer can log in to the actual code, change it as necessary, while the application stays in production.
Cloud Trace shows charts that can help developers determine if their changes have made a difference in how long it takes for applications to run.
Google has been going crazy with feature announcements for the Google Cloud Platform, and today's news aligns with that theme. Now Google must persuade more startups, enterprises, intelligence agencies — anyone with money for computing outside of on-premises data centers, really — to use the platform.

I'm trying to figure out a way to test if a post is the last post of a particular day. Take a look at my blog at http://polaricecap.net and you'll see that each of my posts has a paragraph tag containing the post date off to the left of the title. I'd like the paragraph containing the date to show only if it is the last (or latest) post of the day, so that the a particular day's date only shows once. Another example: Gruber's blog does this at http://daringfireball.net/
Basically, I'm looking for this:
IF there is no later post timestamp OR if the next timestamp's date is different, add a class name LAST-DAY to post's container.
Any ideas?

Former Vt trooper in time sheet case begins repaying
BURLINGTON A former Vermont State Police sergeant who pleaded guilty to padding his time sheets has started to pay back the more than $200,000 he owes the state.
The state received a check for about $4,700 over the summer from Jim Deeghan, who is serving a two-year prison sentence.
Chittenden County States Attorney TJ Donovan told the Burlington Free Press the rest of the money will come from Deeghans state police pension over the next six years.
The 50-year-old Deeghan and his family still receive health and dental benefits.
Meanwhile, the Deeghans home in Colchester has been sold for $365,000.

Skill Level Beginner
In this movie we're going to look a little closer at the dimensions feature in Revit. We've already looked at dimensions in a few other movies, but mainly we were interested in using dimensions as a tool to help us build our model. In this movie, I'm going to focus on dimensions as an annotation tool to actually help enhance our construction documents and prepare drawings for printing. I'm in a file called Dimensions and I'm looking at a level one floor plan view. And I'm just going to add some dimensions to various parts of this file here just to show you how it works. So what I'm going to start off with is, I'm going to zoom in over in this location over here.
And I just want to show you the basics of how the Dimension tool works. Now we've covered some of this, so some of this will be review. We can get to the Dimension tool in a couple places, we can go to the Annotate tab and there actually are several dimension tools. I'm going to focus on the Align dimension tool because this is the one I use 99% of the time. So you're free to explore some of these others on your own later. They all kind of work the same way. But I'm going to focus on the Align tool. What the Align tool does is it's aligned with the geometry you're dimensioning, so it's probably the most versatile. So I'm going to click on that.
And that same button is right here and the shortcut is D+I. Now, when you highlight an object, it will highlight some part of that object. Now with walls, we actually have some options. So here you can see that if I put my cursor over it, it's highlighting the face of the wall, and if I move slightly it gives me the other face of the wall. So if I wanted to say what the inside dimension of this office was over here I could click this face, and then this face. And then if that's all I wanted was just that single little dimension, the third click, the final click is in empty space. If you click an object and click another object, and then you try and click in the same spot to place it, it will actually remove that witness line.
So each time you click, Revit is looking to either add or remove a witness line. And I see folks struggle with this a lot. They'll click a point, and then they'll click again in the same point and they'll wonder what happened and then they'll click it again and then they'll do it again. Remember that the final click, placing the dimension, has to be in empty space. There has to be no object under your cursor because that's how you're telling Revit, put the dimension here. If there's an object under your cursor, Revitthinks you're dimensioning that object. Now, here on the Options bar we have some settings. So instead of wall faces, if I wanted to, I could dimension the centerlines of the walls.
So if I choose that, now you'll see it will highlight the center of this wall, and the center of this wall, and I'll get a different dimension. So that's certainly an option. Well, if you want to, you could actually do the center on one side. And over here I could say I want to go to the outside face, well how would I do that? Put your mouse over the outside face and press the Tab key. Even though you've chosen your preference on the drop down there, you can still override it anytime with the Tab key. So you just Tab until the object that you want to dimension highlights and that's when you click to verify that selection and then of course I can place the dimension.
So those dimensions there I'm just using as sort of warmup to kind of get us started. Let's Zoom Previous to get back out to the overall plan here. And let's go a little deeper. The other thing that we can do, all of these examples I did in here were just individual dimensions, just between two points. But I wanted to also make sure that you understand that you can select two points, like these two grid lines, and then keep going. And so I can make a continuous string of dimensions by just continuing to add more and more dimension references, and again it ends the same way as the previous ones.
You click an empty space to finish it. So those are the basic mechanics of placing the dimensions, but let's take it a little deeper now. If we look up here on the Options bar, under this Pick option here, there's two choices. And we've been doing the individual references, but we also have this feature here called Entire Walls. Now what's handy about this is you can select the wall now instead of the two sides that you want to dimension, and Revit will figure out where the two witness lines should go, it'll do the whole wall. Now, in this case I'm just getting one wall end to end.
Maybe not exactly the dimension I had in mind, but there's an Options button right here, and if I click that, we have a whole bunch of options here that we can look at. So we can include the openings when we're making that dimension. You can dimension to their center lines, or their widths. I personally like the widths. So let's take a look at that. I'm going to click OK. Let's zoom in down here. Pick this wall. And look at that. Now, that's going to be a big time saver. Because if we did the same thing with individual references we would have to click each one of these points to get to that location.
Now, you notice how I still have a wall centerline here. So it was picking up the centerline. So these two work together. If I go to wall faces, zoom out just a touch, pick this wall. Now you can see that that final dimension is going out to the face of the wall. Let's zoom all the way out. I'm going to do Zoom To Fit, Z+F. Let's go to Options again. If you want to, you could add the intersecting walls in your dimensions. Let's see what that looks like. Now i tend to think this is just a little too busy for my taste.
There's an awful lot of going on here, but let's say you did like this and you want it to go with that. I'm going to cancel out the command. You can't read any of these dimensions at the current state. So if you click on the dimension, there's these little dots right here, these little grips, and you can use that to drag the text away. Now if you drag it far enough, it will actually add a leader pointing back again. You can have that leader point back and that makes it, I think a little bit more legible. So if you started to pull all of these labels away, you could start to make this dimension a little bit easier to read.
But I'm actually going to delete this dimension and zoom back out agai, and do it slightly differently. If I go to Options, I'm going to turn off the intersecting walls, but I'm going to turn on intersecting grids instead. And let's take a look at that. Now when I click this wall, it's a little bit less busy. It's including the grid line here and the grid line here. And then the rest of it kind of ignores the interior walls. I tend to prefer doing a different string for the interior than the exterior, so you can see that it's a little bit cleaner. You may still need to move a few of those pieces of text over there.
Now lets pan it over here. What about this wall here? The only downside of Pick Walls feature is that you can only pick one wall at a time, but you can select an existing dimension, and then up here on the ribbon we can choose Edit Witness Lines. Now when I click this button, this just takes me back into a mode where I can add in more dimension lines. So I'm going to add a witness line here at the end of the curtain wall, one here and here on each side of the door, one over here at the outside edge of the wall. Now, the final click has to be an empty space, just like we did when we were creating the dimension in the first place.
So don't press Escape or Enter here, you'll lose all your work. Click in the empty white space, and that will complete the dimension. And you now have this continuous string here. Now, let's say that, for whatever reason, I wanted to exclude this line right here. I want to basically break this dimension into two pieces. Highlight the dimension, press your Tab key, and it will actually let you reach in and pick an individual segment. You can click on it, and then you can just delete that. And now I've got this dimension, and this dimension has two separate dimensions.
So, that's a handy new feature because there really was no way to do that before. You'd have to delete the entire dimension and start again. I'm going to undo that and get that one back again. Another really neat feature that we can do, is we can edit the text value. So let's say that this curtain wall is existing and we don't know exactly how big it is. I can click right on the text and what this is, is you're editing the dimension text now. And the actual value is this 17'10'' but we can replace that with an alternate value like VIF for verifying field.
And it will replace the numerical value with the text value. Now, you can't put in a number here. Revit will not be happy about that. In fact it will display a dialog and tell you that that's not allowed. So, this can be replaced with text, not with a number. So, I'm going to go back to use Actual Value, and you can actually add modifiers on any of the four sides around the text as well. So maybe you want to say that it's close to 17'10" but you want them to verify, so you can add the note below or something.
So let's zoom all the way out and check our work. There's nothing like some dimensions to make a drawing start feeling like a construction document. So, we're getting close to being able to print this drawing out. So, feel free to experiment further and add additional dimensions. Remember that you could either do the individual references to the faces or the centers. Or you can use the Pick Walls option to do the entire walls. Pick Walls is only available for walls. So if you want a dimension between plumbing fixtures or other elements like columns and so forth, those you'll have to do with the pick references.

Hi there
Firstly, great plugin. I've been trying to do this for so long and using Google's methods weren't working for me and I'm so grateful to have finally found an app that make me a kml app without any problems.
However, I am desperate to have a search bar on my map so people can search addresses/ postcodes but I have no idea where to even begin trying to implement this. I'm hoping that someone could help me, I'm very desperate to have this as part of my map.

I am a ftm to a son who turned 2 in Sept. I can tell he is ready to start potty training although I have not really worked on it yet. He asked to sit on the potty every time I change his diaper and before bath time, he knows when he pees in the potty and gets excited, and there are other signs. I am getting ready to fully start potty training and see how it goes. We have the potty chair that fits over the big potty, this is what he likes best, my question is using this potty chair means we are training him to potty train sitting down. When do I train him to pee standing up? Also if we are out and about and he needs to go potty what do I do? I would take him to a public potty then what, would he sit down on the potty-but not using his potty chair with the protective pee guard would make me think he would just pee forward, if I try to get him to stand up I think he would be too short to reach! I am stress about something that has not even happen yet, but wanted to get advices so I know as much as I can before we fully start potting training, if that makes since. Any help would be wonderful!!!!
How to Potty Train a boy?
Comments (9)
I trained mine to pee standing up almost from the beginning. It seemed easier that way. I would just hold the potty up for him. He didn't aim well at first but now he does it all by himself. He is tall for his age so that helps as well. He uses the big potty.
Pooping was much harder, but when he had to poop { I could tell he was holding it it. } I took off his underwear and gave him some privacy. Again, he just used the big potty and sat with his legs out. { He had a potty chair but didn't use it. }
For restaurants and places, I just have to hold him up where he can reach it.
We started my DS out peeing sitting down but he made a lot of messes because the pee does go straight forward if he is not very careful about aiming. So we switched to standing up and he does much better. Plus I think it makes him feel like a big boy because that is how Daddy pees. We also use the small seat that fits over the big toilet and he knows to take the seat off and lift the lid to pee. He has been standing up to pee since he was around 2.5 but I think he could have done it much earlier than that. I think it is actually easier for him because he doesn't have to take his pants all the way off to pee.
I recommend the 'Elmo Potty Video'. It is even entertaining for adults.
Thanks everyone!
How do u get a boy to poop on the potty? My son is good about peeing every time I take him to the potty (he hasn't taken himself yet, but does run to the potty, get on the stool, lift the lid and pull his pants down by himself). I take him to pee every 30 min and he still has several accidents throughout the day and sometimes it's him being too enthralled in something to notice and other time I think it's a control thing. Anyway, when I first started potty training he initially pooped in the potty b/c I just caught him in time and put him there, but now he's become craftier and I can't tell anymore and so when he's pooped his pants I sit him on the potty for 5 minutes so he knows he can't get away with not sitting on the potty. I just don't know what else to do.
good question- we have not made it that far yet!
We also watched the 'Elmo Potty Video'
My DS refused to SIT to poo (or pee), but he would stand on a step stool and potty in the toilet. I taped a sheet of paper next to the toilet and gave him stickers every time he went to the bathroom. (and clapped, cheered, hugged and would tell him what a big boy he was) If he told me he had to go he would get 2 stickers, just if I took him he only got 1. Buy cheap ones, they add up!!!
The only way I got him to poo in the toilet was to bribe him with a "poopoo party" (he named it). I told him I would make him a cake and get him some big boy underwear. He asked if he could have boons (balloons) I said yes, if he went poo in the toilet...He went the very next day!
Tony (4/24/91) ~ Parker (10/29/99) ~ Colt (12/21/07)
I'm training my son now, and he wants to sit to pee. A while back, he was interested in standing, but for some reason that interest has waned. I plan on letting him decide when he wants to stand. As for when you're out and about, there are "portable" toilet "toppers" that you can get that will fit in your bag. We have the potette plus, which is rather bulky, but very sturdy.
In love with my dh since 95, ds (7/06), dd (2010 turkey baby)
Sweet Angel Cassandra Jane left her footprints on my heart at 21wks (8/13/09)
My husband showed me an easy way to take my son to a public restroom. I would stand him up on the toilet seat and he would put his hands on the wall or top part of the toilet (if it had one) for balance. Then he would go without a problem. I didn't have to worry about him touching the toilet bowl or seat.

On the money: Mondelez confident on 2013 organic sales target
By Michelle Russell | 14 February 2013
Mondelez said organic net sales were up 4.4%
Global snacks giant Mondelez International has affirmed confidence in its ability to increase sales by at least 5% on an organic basis in 2012 amid concerns on Wall Street.
Better management of input costs and higher sales in emerging markets helped Mondelez report higher underlying profits in 2012.
On an organic basis, the Cadbury owner's net sales grew 4.4% last year, lower than its long-term target.
Mondelez pointed to falling coffee prices in the second half of the year and problems in Brazil and Russia it endured in the third quarter.
The firm said, however, it was "confident" it can deliver on its 5%-plus growth target.
However, JP Morgan analyst Ken Goldman said the firm's organic sales growth had fallen short of analyst expectations for two consecutive quarters, "These are the only two quarters you've had," he said on the firm's earnings call, alluding to its recent creation after Kraft Foods split in two.
Goldman added: "The stock has been invested in, for many investors, because of that top-line potential. So just saying: 'We are quite confident that we can deliver on our 5% plus next year' I hope you can understand that may not be enough for some people. I know you've provided some, but any specifics you can provide besides just saying, "We've done it before" that can help people gain confidence that you will get back to that number. Because right now, there's a lack of confidence that you guys will get to that 5% number, right or wrong."
Mondelez chairman and CEO Irene Rosenfeld said 2012 had been "a transformational year" for the company.
"We split a $54bn enterprise. We created significant shareholder value in that process, while still delivering solid full-year results. And very high quality full-year results," she said.
"The top line rebounded in the fourth quarter as we said it would. The revenue growth was very much in line with the guidance, the mid single-digit guidance that we gave you. We delivered high-quality results in each of our regions. We've got very strong underlying performance of our power brands, very strong continued expansion of gross margins and operating margins. We've continued to make the necessary investments in our franchises, both in A&C as well as sales and distribution. And we delivered very solid income growth on a constant-currency operating basis."
She added: "It's not quite up to the long term targets. We understand that. But we have all the makings underneath. A very solid franchise, and the opportunity to deliver, as we said we would, on our 2013 guidance."
CFO David Brearton suggested Mondelez would grow in line with some of the "high-growth" categories in which it operated.
"The categories we're participating in are growing at that 5-7% range. So we do have some stuff we have to get out of the way in the short term, but I think directionally, it is essentially saying we'll grow in line with some pretty high-growth categories. And that will deliver the results that we put out there."
Separately, Mondelez was asked about the impact of rising input costs on its chocolate business.
Brearton said there was "no individual commodity that is a significant portion of the cost" in chocolate.
"We tend to look at the total input cost bucket, which includes cocoa, obviously, and sugar, and various other ingredients. It also is impacted by currency rates, because cocoa is denominated in British pounds for us. Packaging, energy, labour costs, etc. The sort of amalgamation of all of those things we do not see a cost decline in any of our major businesses next year.
"We would probably say across the company we'd be in the low single-digit inflation across all of those components. And our strategy has been, and continues to be, we'll price to recover those input costs. And we'll leverage our aggressive productivity programs to grow our gross margin. So that's kind of implicit in the whole cycle, and chocolate will be no different."
Mondelez's share price was down 3.28% at $26.84 at 12:06 ET.

In Culturally Situated Design Tools: Ethnocomputing from Field Site to Classroom ethnomathematician Dr. Ron Eglash, et al researched "Culturally Situated Design Tools" (CSDTs) which are web-based software applications that allow students to create simulations of "cultural arts-Native American beadwork, African American cornrow hairstyles, urban graffiti, and so forth-using underlying mathematical principles."
This article is a review of the anthropological issues raised in the CSDT project: negotiating the representations of cultural knowledge during the design process with community members, negotiating pedagogical features with math teachers and their students, and reflecting on the software development itself as a cultural construction.
The move from ethnomathematics to ethnocomputing results in an expressive computational medium that affords new opportunities to explore the relationships between youth identity and culture, the cultural construction of mathematics and computing, and the formation of cultural and technological hybridity.
So, with "culturally situated design" in mind, my idea is to build on work generated by cool applets such as the CSDT Graffiti Grapher (see above) and I'm also inspired by real world site installations like this one:
Site installations, graffiti laser tag and Augmented Reality (AR) tools in real world spaces will allow users/creators to "build game layers on top of (their) world":
This is what I want to do, only with AR and virtual 3D game-based content created in collaboration with high school teachers and students, and for design using mathematics and science (STEM). From African fractals to graffiti or even skateboarding (CSDTs) we have an opportunity to develop, prototype, and deploy AR and virtual 3D game-based design for active learning. In studies of African, Latino and Native American students' poor math performance, researchers have suggested that computer-based teaching methods or the presentation of real-world math applications might encourage students to learn more. As this population grows and, increasingly, makes use of digital media this makes culturally situated, AR/virtual 3D games-based design research a worthwhile pursuit. Last week Ron (Eglash) sent me a link about Native American skateboarding after I told him about Odd Future (African American skateboarders and rappers).
In 2009, Christopher A. Le Dantec of Georgia Tech's College of Computing published a paper that presented the "social and cultural aspects of cognition in design."
The argument begins with a discussion of the parallels in design studies and cognitive science as each begun to consider the importance of environmental influences in how we design and how we think. By applying three situated frameworks to understand the situated nature of design meetings, the analysis shows that notions of social creation and cultural cognition are complimentary and necessary when trying to understand how the design process works.
This paper, as well as the ideas behind CSDTs and related ethnographic practices create a basis for further design research with a specific target audience of under-represented minority students and non-traditional learners. When I think back on my experiences in public school where I thrived in language arts, social studies, science and art I could have benefitted from RPI's CSDTs because I hated mathematics. I was definitely a non-traditional learner.
Regarding the notion of culture (in design) I return to the West African (Akan) concept of "sankofa" that teaches us that we must go back to our roots in order to move forward. That is, we should reach back and gather the best of what our past has to teach us, so that we can achieve our full potential as we move forward. Whatever we have lost, forgotten, forgone or been stripped of, can be reclaimed, revived, preserved and perpetuated. Visually and symbolically "sankofa" is expressed as a mythic bird that flies forward while looking backward with an egg (symbolizing the future) in its mouth.
I want to extend CSDTs into virtual 3D and Augmented Reality environments that are on the horizon, as this 2011 report indicates. Sankofa is an underlying principle of Afrofuturism which I have been researching and working on in Second Life (as art installations). Creating structural forms in virtual space has allowed me to merge past, present and future from Black Atlantic art/culture(s). Sankofa is my motivation for doing exploring new ideas that extend beyond multiculturalism. Scholar/journalist Jeff Chang writes, "polyculturalism, as postmulticulturalism, moved from issues such as 'diversity' to exploring the way cultures influence each other." This has in a sense freed this work to be received on many levels of interpretation, ex. globalism, transnationalism and virtual 3D environments where culture can more easily be transcended, transformed, or exchanged. In the age of accelerated technology, artists can move culture, capital, and ideas between worlds, identities, and realities. This points to new, open, participatory techniques of picturing history, culture and identity as it relates to immigration, diaspora, and the evolving embodiment of the self. From African fractals and iron smithing to African/Latino/Native American graffiti and skateboarding and so on there is a wide range of culturally situated design practices to research that connect to mathematics and science (aerodynamics/kinetics/physics and geometry). Using AR/ARGs and virtual 3D tools students will be able to create "on-the-spot" CSDTs.
On the technology side the 2011 Horizon Report by the New Media Consortium (NMC) and EDUCAUSE highlights both Augmented Reality environments and Game-Based Learning as trends with times-to-adoption in two to three years.
Continued experimentation in the development of AR simulations, games, texts, and situated information bode well for the expansion of AR in higher education learning in the coming year.
I think it's equally important for K-12 programs to adopt these technologies for reasons stated above. Alternate Reality Gaming (ARG) bridges the real and virtual worlds and offer possibilities for exploration of Augmented Reality, virtual 3D game-based environments.
In the second direction, gaming related specifically to course content helps student gain a fresh perspective on material and can potentially engage them in that content in more complex and nuanced ways. Alternate reality games (ARGs), in which players find clues and solve puzzles in experiences that blur the boundary between the game and real life, offer a clear example in which course content and game play can overlap.
Alternate reality also connects with Afrofuturism, as I demonstrated in last summer's IBM Second Life exhibition simulation (i.e. utopia vs. dystopia). The possibilities are endless and I'm beginning to tie it all together to create the research that will eventually become my dissertation.

Welcome to AD Nation. First a small introduction. My name is Lucas Muller I am a Software Engineer from Germany. I graduated in 2007 at the Universität Leipzig. Since then I've been testing and launching multiple tracking solutions for mobile devices and my latest project is the AD Nation advanced phone and laptop tracker.
What is a cell phone tracker?
A cell phone tracking software is a project application composed particularly to keep point by point records of the considerable number of activities done on a specific telephone. A percentage of the activities it screens may incorporate all approaching and active calls, messages, social media usage and in addition logs and records of other informing applications, for example, Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, Viber, and so on.
How does it function?
Not at all like most telephone applications, cell phone trackers take after unmistakable standards on the best way to record and transmit data. For them to work, they first must be introduced on the objective devices (telephones and tablets) before data social event can be done. In spite of the fact that the way they work is the same generally, systems used as a part of gathering data may differ starting with one telephone tracking application then onto the next. When it is introduced, the product sends the obliged data to the organization's servers from which you can obtain entrance to by signing into your record. Be that as it may, for the application to work legitimately, certain necessities must be held fast to.
- The objective telephone ought to be compatible with the application itself. More established telephones may not be fit for running any of the mobile phone following applications accessible available unless the tracker is hardware based. All things considered, it ought to be a chip which is illegal.
- The operating system of the objective telephone ought to be good with the application. Continuously guarantee that the application is particularly customized to chip away at your mobile phone's operating system or else it won't fill in as it ought to or not in the least.
- The objective telephone ought to have the capacity to access the internet. This is on the grounds that the application needs to send accumulated data to the servers and in addition speak with them.
Special features that the target phone should have
As far as how mobile phones are made or work, special features can mean a whole lot of things. This can either be as far as equipment or programming.
As far as hardware, there are no exceptional components that are needed for the application to work since all the work will singularly be taken care of by the application itself and accessible internet connection. Be that as it may, for trackers which are hardware based, they use chips for bugging and no software application, at exactly that point would you consider the hardware angle.
In terms of software however, it will all come down to the operating system that your cell phone uses and the necessities set around the application. A portion of the requirements that your mobile phone may need to meet all together for the application to run easily incorporates establishing your telephone or jail breaking it.
How legal is it?
As much as we all affection to do or purchase certain things, when it is quoted as illegal, now that is the place a great many people adhere to a meaningful boundary.
Tracking another person's cell phone is generally illegal. It has rules overseeing it. Here are the things you have to know before you introduce a telephone tracker on somebody's telephone. You can also find more legal info here.
It is legal:
- You are the legitimate owner or have lawful power over the telephone that you expect to install the application on. In the event that it has a place with someone else, overlook it in light of the fact that you will be treading in foul waters.
- You must advise the individual using the telephone that the telephone being observed. Inability to do as such will lead you to claims if found.
On the off chance that you have minor children, you could install the software on their telephone since you have the legitimate right over the telephone. For employees, on the other hand, you can do that in the event that you have cautioned them ahead of time that the organization telephones are being observed.
Things you should consider when choosing a cell phone tracker
As you may definitely know, the internet is brimming with con artists. Knowing how to keep away from them may be a difficult request for some.
- Be extremely keen about the organization's site. An organization's site says a lot on how the organization functions and works – whether professionally or not. A seriously worked site is sufficient to instruct you to keep away.
- What are the payment choices that they offer? Is any of them Paypal or Visa? In the event that yes, then it is a genuine organization since your installment is ensured. Turn away when none of the two is benefited to you.
- A genuine organization ought to offer both cancellation and insurance.
- Look for an organization that offers assistance and backing to clients when they buy their items and are quick in doing as such.
When you have settled on various organizations, all you will need to do now is to pick the right programming for you. Here are a percentage of the things to search for.
- Is it compatible with your telephone? This will all rely on upon your telephone's operating system.
- Does it address the majority of your issues? Although intended to handle essential things, for example, record or log calls, messages and applications, some may offer much more components. Pick one that has every one of the things that you require.
- Although the more the components, the better the application is, dependably restrict yourself to what you can manage. Notwithstanding, the value may be inflated because of variables, for example, number of individuals it tracks, duration, level of point of interest or package that you go for.

In First Stage's 'Crash,' a football player learns how to hug
Recalling young actor Seth Horne from past First Stage shows, what stands out is a seemingly incorruptible innocence, inscribed in a sensitive, open face that reflects an unabashed enthusiasm for life. In a memorable show like "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory," for example, Horne's projection of Charlie's fundamental, rock-solid goodness stood in stark contrast to the bratty kids accompanying Charlie on tour.
But kids grow up, often losing their sense of magic along the way; many of them become bullies. In the First Stage production of "Crash," that's the rocky road being traveled by seventh-grader John "Crash" Coogan — convincingly played by Horne, in the Defense Cast of alternating young actors I saw Saturday night. »Read Full Article

"What?" or "What!"
"What?" or "What!"
As a mom of three teenagers I sometimes wonder if they listen to half of what I say and find myself praying they at least allow some of what they are ignoring to seep into their subconscious. Anyway that is my life day in and day out…listen to me…pay attention…this is important…. been there right?
Kids seem to take on parts of our own personalities. When they do, seeing that little piece of yourself in a mannerism, a laugh, or perhaps that one trait you wish they hadn't grabbed onto and kept as their own; it can just drive you nuts. On the other hand, it may just make you want to burst out in laughter.
I am going to step out of my comfort zone and admit that I routinely torment my kids. Not in a painful- going to get arrested sort of way- but in an "OMG tell me you didn't just do that" kind of thing. There is a sort of bizarre sort of satisfaction from watching them squirm a little. I know I am not the only one that has done this to their kids. Some of us have perfected this little game. My sister feels it is payback for all the embarrassing things our kids have put us through but I prefer to think of it as simply humor on edge.
How does one teach teenagers patience? My father had a unique and exquisitely painful way. He simply made you wait until the day before you absolutely positively had to have an answer and yes that is torture. If you pestered him about it the answer was always "No" but if you were patient the answer was almost always "Yes" unless you did something to screw things up for yourself.
Unfortunately I never mastered that one skill regrettably. Because of this I am tormented daily with all the "Have you decided yet?" pokes at my thin resolve. It is okay because I have my own arsenal of tools which I use in other ways. Perhaps my husband and I accidentally on purpose erase the "Robot Chicken" episodes the kids thought they were sneaking around recording behind our back. The best part is that he and I watch them first and then discuss how funny they were while they are in ear-shot. The groaning we hear when they discover they are gone is fabulous.
Today was my shining achievement and I am here to brag. Yep- I am very proud of this one. My son has this habit of always saying "What?" like he is innocent when it is obvious he isn't. It sometimes wears us all thin because we know this is his way of rubbing it in. He is very sneaky but not clever enough to cover his tracks. Sometimes he revels in actually getting caught and of course he simply says his signature "What?"
Today he went around all day long saying "What?" only the tone was very different. I started paying a little more attention and discovered he was following around my daughter insisting that she tell him "what" she had done. Hmmmm….my Mom radar was going off so I had to know "what" was going on but I knew that with all good things one must wait. Bedtime I hear him still asking her "what did she do" and all she would say is "You'll know, it is only a matter of time." He groaned.
After about an hour I called my daughter on her cell phone and asked "So what did you do to your brother that has been tormenting him all day?" She laughed and said, "Nothing. I just figured if he was going to be going around saying 'What' all the time that I'd give him something to really say 'What' about." Yes! I love it! She has been taught by the master. That girl deserves chocolate.
