Taiwan News, Staff Writer
With fragile peace talks to end three decades of armed insurgency just beginning, top Turkish and Kurdish officials called for calm, and none of the national television networks carried the event live. But a few Web portals provided real-time coverage as crowds accompanying three funeral trucks for the women poured into Batikent Square in Diyarbakir, the hub of Kurdish political and cultural life. The most prominent of the slain women, Sakine Cansiz, was a founding member of the insurgent group, the Kurdistan Workersâ Party, or P.K.K. Experts said she had been raising funds for the group in Europe.
The private IMC TV portal showed that many in the crowd wore white scarves for peace and black clothing for mourning, as suggested by the pro-Kurdish Peace and Democracy Party, the organizer of the ceremony.
The reason for the killings remains unclear, but they were widely perceived as an effort to derail the talks, which for the first time involve Abdullah Ocalan, the founder and spiritual leader of the P.K.K., who has been held in an isolated island prison since his capture in 1999.
Ms. Cansiz, 55, was his close ally. The two women found dead with her â Fidan Dogan, who would have turned 31 on Thursday, and Leyla Soylemez, 24 â were Kurdish activists. All three were found dead at the unmarked Kurdistan Information Office in Paris last Thursday, apparently shot by one or more gunmen with silenced pistols. The office had been locked from the outside, and three shell casings were found on the floor. Two women were shot in the head, one in the stomach.
Turkish government officials speculated that the killings might have emerged from internal conflict in the P.K.K. The P.K.K. is known for meting out strict operational discipline, including punishments as extreme as executions for wayward members. Some Kurdish political activists countered by accusing the Turkish âdeep state,â a nationalist underground network that was behind hundreds of extrajudicial assaults against Kurds in the 1990s and considers any ethnicity a threat against Turkeyâs national unity.

GEELONG'S assault on a fourth flag in six years could be bolstered by the return of Nathan Vardy, Travis Varcoe and David Wojcinski for the finals.
Neither Vardy (hip) nor Varcoe (foot) have played this year, while suspension and injuries have restricted Wojcinski to three games.
Wojcinski and Vardy returned to VFL action last weekend, while Varcoe is likely to do the same as early as next week.
Vardy played 70per cent of game time in his first competitive hitout since Round21 last season, and football manager Neil Balme said yesterday the ruckman had recovered well.
"Yeah, he's OK. It all went as expected," Balme said.
"We probably won't play him (in the seniors) this week, but that's all part of the plan."
Vardy has twice had surgery on his troublesome hip in the past 12 months and was widely expected to fail in his attempt to play again before the season was out.
Balme said Vardy was no guarantee to play senior football, despite his promising VFL return. However, he said the 21-year-old would put himself in the mix if his hip continued to respond well.
"We're not even thinking about that (senior selection)," he said. "That'll generate itself, or not. We're not really planning for it at all, we'll just see how he goes."
Varcoe had his third round of foot surgery this year in June, but has resumed training and, should he return, would add further spark to a midfield already hitting top form.
"There's no one out there ever doing full training, they're all doing something that has been modified, but he's going pretty well," Balme said.
"We're pleased with where he's at, he's pleased with how he's doing. It'll be another week or so and then we'll give him a run somewhere."
Wojcinski's VFL hitout was his first match since injuring a hamstring against Gold Coast in Round15.
Balme said the defender would be considered for tomorrow night's clash with West Coast at Patersons Stadium.
"He played most of the game, so he's fine," he said.
"The only thing going against him was that it was a Sunday VFL game turning in to a Friday Perth game.
"He's pretty right, so he'll certainly be in the chop-up, but whether we pick him is another thing, because he has certainly missed a bit of footy."
Defender Josh Hunt may still play against the Eagles despite suffering a quad injury in the win over Hawthorn, but Joel Corey is less likely as he strives to overcome a hamstring injury suffered the previous round.

This review is from: CORSAIR TX Series CMPSU-650TX 650W ATX12V / EPS12V SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Active PFC Compatible with Core i7 Power Supply & New 4th Gen CPU Certified Haswell Ready
Pros: I own two of these, both purchased in late 2010.
The PSU worked great and flawlessly for about 1.5 years on one machine, and 2 years on the other. They operate 24/7 in two FreeNAS boxes, each with 6 HDDs and a flash drive with a micro-ATX motherboard.
Cons: After 1-2 years, the fans started to make bad noises. Extremely noisy. A few weeks later, the clicking starts. It's certainly internal to the PSUs. I have RMAed both of these today, waiting to hear back now from CORSAIR.
Other Thoughts: The PSU's still work, but the clicking and fan issues are unbearable unless this thing is tucked away in a closet.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: Logitech diNovo Mini Black 63 Normal Keys Bluetooth Wireless Mini Keyboard
Pros: It's small, that's about the only good thing I can say about it.
Cons: I got one in the mail, set it up without much hassle on my PC, and the keyboard seemed to work fine - but the mouse functionality was the worst in the world. No matter how I played with the settings, movement was sporadic and unusable. I thought it was a lemon so I got a replacement.
Unfortunately, the replacement was just as bad. I even tried the thing on two computers. I'm not sure how logitech is using or testing these things, but it's miserable.
Additionally, no back-light.
This review is from: Western Digital WD Green WD20EARS 2TB 64MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive Bare Drive
Pros: 75% of them are still up and running, and I haven't hadn't operational issues until they begin to fail at least.
Cons: I've owned 12+ of these. 3 I have been replaced (RMA). Obviously 25% is a huge percentage for HDD failures, pretty unacceptable really.
Granted, I run these nearly 24/7 in a small server, but I've never had such high percentages of failures. They work for a 6-18 months than die, unfortunately.
Other Thoughts: I don't have a huge problem replacing these whenever they fail. I'll live, I have my data in a RAIDZ array and use other means for the most important data - so it's not the end of the world when they fail and I need to rebuild. It's more just a pain. Anyhow, I wish I had about 20 hours of my life back from dealing with these.
I won't skimp on HDDs next time!

No recalls yet, but Brewer and Arpaio put on notice by anti-Pearce group
Though the historic effort to recall former Sen. Russell Pearce ended with his ouster, those behind the campaign aren't going to stop there.
The group that spearheaded the recall election of Pearce will be putting pressure on two other eminent Republican politicians: Gov. Jan Brewer and Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio.
Official canvass means Pearce out as lawmaker; Lewis wins by 12 points
As of this morning, Russell Pearce, the Senate's former president and Arizona's most visible anti-illegal immigration advocate, is no longer a lawmaker.Read More »
Pierce brings tell-it-like-it-is approach to Senate presidency
When asked of his plans a few days after his colleagues put him in charge, incoming Senate President Steve Pierce replied: "See, I'd just tell you. I don't know what that is right now."Read More »
Pearce recall group plans future political activism
While the state is still reeling from the historic recall of outgoing Senate President Russell Pearce, the group that launched the recall campaign is already looking toward its next big fight.Read More »
Recall threat tactic may prove difficult
Seeing one of Arizona's most prolific and powerful political figures toppled in a recall election has some Republicans wondering who might be next.
Whereas previously, a recall petition being pulled could be dismissed as a joke, there was now a solid model for running a recall campaign and winning.
Pearce recall shows voters want leaders, not rulers
After the unprecedented recall and defeat of Senate President Russell Pearce, political pundits have had a heyday analyzing the causes of his decisive upset. Immigration policy? Abrasive personality? Campaign blunders? These and many other factors contributed to the Pearce defeat.Read More »
Cardon uses polished message in claiming 'outsider' status
Mesa businessman Wil Cardon branded himself as the anti-politician, an outsider who lacks a "politician's polish," as he put it, during a Nov. 15 speech at his new campaign headquarters near Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport.
But the U.S. Senate candidate who is challenging Congressman Jeff Flake for the Republican nomination appears anything but politically naïve. In fact, he sounded very much like a politician.
Ex-Fiesta Bowl COO indicted by federal grand jury
The former chief operating officer of the Fiesta Bowl has been indicted on charges of filing false income tax returns for the bowl game, the first charges against a former official of one of the top national college football bowls and Bowl Championship Series member since a scathing report led to the firing of its president in March.Read More »
A turning point in the immigration debate?
Republicans who oppose Senate President Russell Pearce's strict enforcement to confronting illegal immigration are quick to paint Jerry Lewis's victory last Tuesday as a turning point in the debate in favor of a more nuanced solution to this complex problem. Eager to seize the momentum, they are creating a narrative for the whole nation. While they acknowledged that Pearce's defeat to Lewis won't necessarily roll back laws like Arizona's SB1070, they believe it sends a signal to other Republicans that they can offer more pragmatic solutions without fearing a backlash.Read More »

First Time CDing
If Its important to you, you will find a way. If not you will find a excuse!
I would love to give you some piece of magical wisdom but honestly even with all the practicing and research my dh and I did before our dd came it was still alot of trial and error. Sorry I am no help, but feel free to ask specific questions and we will try to answer them.
Katie~ EBFing, CDing mom to my little girl
Thanks yall! ;) I bought a set of size adjusting diapers that come with inserts my baby is due in june so just trying to get get a little info before hand. i actually have learned alot off this board as i had no idea i might need a diaper sprayer!!!!! but im glad i found out cause it really sounds like something i will need!! even told the hubby bout it a while ago!!!!!!!!! if i think of anything i will ask thanks again for the input!!!!!!!
If Its important to you, you will find a way. If not you will find a excuse!
Happily married since 2009
Adoring my sons born 7/10 and 9/12
My LO is 8 months and we've been using one-size pocket diapers since she was about 3 months. Here's my OPINIONS:
It would be easier if you use all one style/brand diaper, at least for daytime, or else you will have to spend more time matching up the right insert to the right diaper cover after they get washed, and that's a pain. But, at the same time you don't really know what style/brand you'll like best until you've been using them at least a few weeks.
I don't think you can go wrong with Bum Genius velcro (aplix). Velcro is best for daycare, hubbies, squirmy babies, and impatient moms. : )
When they start solids, use disposable diaper liners!! I almost gave up cloth diapering when my LO started solids, because she started pooping so much more (she eats a lot of veggies), and her poop was like thick, sticky peanut butter. The diaper sprayer wouldn't budge it, so I was scraping it off into the toilet with a gloved hand! ugh! With the disposable liner you can just toss the whole liner with the poop, and there usually is very little poop that gets on the diaper. They say they are flushable, but we prefer to make it easier on our pipes & sewer and just throw them in the trash. We hopefully won't need the liners once she is eating more/all solids, but for now they are a life saver.
I also love having a huge drying rack. We just air dry the diaper covers overnight, and dry the inserts until they are almost dry and then hang dry overnight to finish. We got a huge folding rack for cheap at Costco, and it holds a ton of diaper covers & inserts.
One of our main reasons for cloth diapering was to save money. So I created a spreadsheet where I log any CD expenses. It keeps me in line so I don't go crazy buying more & more diapers that I don't really need. They come out with new designs all the time to try and suck you in to buying more! : )
Good luck!
One-size (adjustable) diapers usually don't fit newborns very well...if you want to start from the very beginning, you need to get some smaller diapers of some kind (unless you have a 10 lb. newborn!)
Well im in luck cause my babies are always like 10 lbs ;)
If Its important to you, you will find a way. If not you will find a excuse!
Depends on if you've chosen a system or not. If you starting from the very beginning, I would...
1. Read a good beginner's guide to cloth, or two, to learn the terms and basics for care, etc.
2. See what works for others. Read interviews and reviews, and think about where your lifestyle/preferences,etc. fit into their advice.
3. Research the specifics once you decide on a system (I blog about prefolds and covers, and many other people share their specific experiences through a blog or YouTube, etc.)
4. Ask specific questions here on the board. If there's something confusing or that's not working, ask! These ladies are so knowledgable :)
Good luck!

It took a lot longer than anyone would have liked, but Major League Baseball finally dropped the hammer on 12 of the players connected to Anthony Bosch by handing them 50-game suspensions.
According to Ken Rosenthal of Fox Sports, the players suspended include Nelson Cruz (Texas Rangers), Jhonny Peralta (Detroit Tigers), Everth Cabrera (San Diego Padres), Francisco Cervelli (New York Yankees), Antonio Bastardo (Philadelphia Phillies), Jordany Valdespin (New York Mets), Jesus Montero (Seattle Mariners), Cesar Puello (Mets), Sergio Escalona (Houston Astros), Fernando Martinez (Yankees), Fautino De Los Santos (free agent) and Jordan Norberto (free agent).
All 12 players, per Rosenthal, have accepted their 50-game suspensions and will begin serving them immediately. The two biggest names on the initial list are Cruz and Peralta, both because they play on teams with playoff aspirations and because of their impending free agency.
The big fish in this whole thing, Alex Rodriguez's suspension was also announced on Monday, and it is exactly what was reported over the weekend: 211 games through the 2014 season, effective on Thursday.
Rodriguez will appeal the suspension and be allowed to play until an arbitrator hears the case and renders a decision.
With the suspensions and penalties finally out there, we can break down what it means for the futures of all the players affected. Specifically, we want to list them in order from least impactful to most impactful.
We have put each suspended player in the order of least effected to most effected. A variety of factors—free-agent status, age, position, etc.—contribute to their slot on this list.

Donatella Wins People's Choice at Meatball Madness 2012by Sara Levine in Events, October 12th, 2012
Next Iron Chef judge Donatella Arpaia took home the People's Choice award at last night's Meatball Madness, hosted by her fellow maven of Italian cooking, Giada De Laurentiis. Donatella served up classic tomato-braised veal meatballs, a recipe she attributed to her mom, who proudly helped serve them up to hungry crowds all night.
Psyched to finally beat out last year's winners from the Meatball Shop, whose booth was as popular as ever, Donatella thanked the guys from Pat LaFrieda Meats — stars of Meat Men and sponsors of the event — who were in part responsible for the tastiness of her meatballs. She said she's purchased her meat from them ever since she got into the restaurant business.
Food Network stars Anne Burrell, Geoffrey Zakarian and Alex Guarnaschelli served as official meatball tasters and helped Pat LaFrieda Jr. and Mark Pastore determine the Magnificent Meatball award. It went to Gabe Thompson of L'Apicio, who offered meatballs with spicy, porky Amatriciana sauce.
Marco Canora, chef/owner of New York's Hearth and Terroir and a past Next Iron Chef finalist, was one of few chefs to serve his balls between bread. His meatball parm sandwich had many fans — including Giada and Food Network president Brooke Johnson.
Giada offered fans her own meatball-and-prosciutto panini, then worked the room to check out the meaty offerings of more than 30 chefs and restaurants. There were traditional red-sauced meatballs, Spanish-style albondigas, Austrian-inspired pretzel-stuffed meatballs and more, made from pork, veal, beef, chicken and every possible blend. The four-time host said it was the best Meatball Madness she's seen yet.

BEREA — Last year, Josh Cribbs battled injuries throughout the season and really didn't have the impact he has in the past.
In the first two games, Cribbs has been a catalyst in getting the offensive started in the return game and on offense.
"He does just that," Pat Shurmur said. "Emotionally, he can make big plays. That's a part of his nature."
Against the Bengals, Cribbs had a 53-yard kick return that got the offense going for their first touchdown. Sunday against the Colts, Cribbs had a 52-yard return to the Browns' 45 that provided the spark for the Browns first touchdown to Evan Moore.
In the second quarter, on the first play after the two-minute warning, Cribbs caught a swing pass for 25 yards to the Colts' 36 on third-and-8.
"On the third down play, he said, 'Just throw it to me.'"
Four plays later, Peyton Hillis scored the Browns second touchdown of the game.
Cribbs set up the Browns third and final touchdown with a 43 yard punt return with 4:50 to play in the game to give the Browns the ball on the Colts' 28.
Cribbs accounted for 173 all-purpose yards, including 52 yards on punt returns, 80 yards on kickoff returns and three receptions for 41 yards.
"We had returns in the game," Shurmur said. "That was so key."
After Cribbs' return, Hillis broke loose for a 24-yard touchdown to give the Browns a 24-12 lead with just under four minutes left.
Receivers Grow: Shurmur said that WR Greg Little has grown much since the start of training camp.
"Greg's grown a lot in my eyes," Shurmur said. "He's one of those guys who loves Sundays. His eyes get wide when the lights come on. "
Despite not catching any passes in his first two games, Shurmur said he is not down on WR Brian Robiskie.
"We saw a little less of Brian but he took about 25 snaps," he said. "I like Josh and Greg, but am not down on Brian. He competed well."
Montario Use: Shurmur said he has to do a better job of getting RB Montario Hardesty involved.
"We wanted to get him in the game," he said. "You get rolling and I need to do a better job. I wish we could've got him in the game sooner."
Hardesty was in on one play and then carried the ball three times for one yard when the Browns were inside the Colts' ten.
"Peyton is a bruising type of runner and he needs a breather."
Monday Morning Feeling: Shurmur said it was much more enjoyable coming to work after the win over the Colts.
"When you win it's a great feeling," he said. "Everything is better when you win. That's what we all want to do.
"It's a good victory, but we need to move on," he said. "The Dolphins are 0-2 and they're trying to get a victory."
Shurmur was confident the Browns would bounce back after the tough loss to the Bengals.
"This team responds when you ask them to correct something," he said. "You put the good feeling of winning behind you and get ready for the next game. "
End Switch: Shurmur said the switching of DE Jayme Mitchell and DE Jabaal Sheard will be permanent. Sheard started at left end after playing on the right side in the preseason and the first game. Mitchell played on the right side.
"We're getting better and finding the best ways to use them," Shurmur said. "We're going to continue to flip the ends."
Sheard sacked QB Kerry Collins in the fourth quarter and picked up a fumble on the play. He looked as though he tried to lateral the ball, but a challenge ruled he was down, saving the Browns 15 yards of field position.
"(Defensive players) tend to be more cavalier with the ball," Shurmur said. "They need to secure it."
All Clear: Shurmur didn't mention any injuries from the Colts game, either after the game or at Monday's briefing. OL Tony Pashos (ankle), LB Titus Brown (ankle) and DB Eric Hagg (knee) were on the sideline at the game.
By the Numbers: QB Colt McCoy is 41-of-72 for 424 yards (56.9) with three touchdowns and one interception. His rating is 82.2…RB Peyton Hillis has 151 yards (3.4 avg.) with two touchdowns. Hillis leads the team in receptions with 10 for 53 yards…The Browns rank sixth overall in the NFL in defense (2nd in pass and 24th rushing). Offensively, they are26th overall (20th rushing and tied for 24th in passing).

|Defeat Dracula in the Bloodlines stage without getting hit.
Easy, but could take practice. Get a lot of Hearts, maybe 45-50 will work, and try to Slide Jump to get the Potion power-up before fighting Dracula. Once the fight begins, wait for the white beam of light to appear, then hit , and a Holy Water attack will be summoned, It is really powerful and it could defeat him in one go, but if not, Repeat it. Once he transforms, wait until he is almost done transforming, then use the attack again, It will damage him a lot, while canceeling out his attack. If it doen't kill him in one attack, wait for him to jump, and do it again. I got it my first try, But it may take some practice.

The best programs in college football are those that find a way to be right in the middle of the BCS chase every season. Alabama is the school that immediately comes to mind. Nick Saban and the Tide have played in a BCS bowl to conclude four of the squad's past five seasons and won three national titles along the way.
This annual success represents the golden standard of the sport that every school strives to achieve.
Alabama may once again be on top of the mountain, but there are other teams in position to knock the Crimson Tide off the peak and establish their own footholds at the highest level.
One of those is the Florida Gators.
After a tumultuous two seasons immediately following the Tim Tebow era, the Gators took many by surprise and nearly made this past January's championship game. Some might be tempted to call Florida's 2012 success a fluke, but in reality there is reason for optimism in Gainesville. The current state of Gator football suggests that the team is ready to be a contender in seasons to come.
Here are four reasons why the Gators are in position to experience long-term success.

Posted by ESPN.com's Adam Rittenberg
Before adjourning for the weekend, it's time to take a look at five lingering questions for the Big Ten following spring practice.
1. Will the quarterback play improve? If the spring practice was any indication, it will. Returning starters Daryll Clark, Juice Williams, Terrelle Pryor and Ricky Stanzi all elevated their play, and teams like Michigan State and Minnesota can feel better about their depth at quarterback. But these players have to get it done consistently on the field. The Big Ten had only one passer (Clark) rated in the top 25 nationally last year, a number that must increase.
2. Can the Big Ten notch a signature nonconference win? It didn't really happen last year, and more opportunities arrive this fall. No game carries more meaning than Ohio State-USC, as the Trojans have done more damage to the Big Ten's national reputation than any other team. The Big Ten also would benefit from Minnesota knocking off Cal, Illinois beating Missouri and at least two teams downing Notre Dame.
3. Will Penn State repeat for the first time in the Big Ten? The schedule certainly sets up for another Nittany Lions championship run, as both Iowa and Ohio State must visit Happy Valley. Penn State lost a sizable chunk of starters and must make upgrades during the summer in the secondary and along the offensive line. But with Clark and linebacker Sean Lee leading the way, the Lions should be right in the mix again.
4. Which new scheme will work right away? Minnesota overhauled its offense, while Indiana now will operate almost exclusively from the pistol formation. Michigan welcomes new defensive coordinator Greg Robinson, and Purdue must pick up nuances from new coordinators Gary Nord and Donn Landholm. Though the Gophers might have the most work to do on offense, they have the talent to do some special things if the system clicks.
5. Will Michigan be back this fall? The Wolverines likely are a year away from being back in the Big Ten title picture, but they must rebound from a disastrous 2008 campaign. Many of the pieces appear to be in place on offense, but all eyes will once again be on the quarterback position this summer. If the running game and the defense make expected progress, Michigan should be able to get back on the right side of .500.

Learning "nools" Rules Engine

Recently I sat down to work up a solution around a rules engine. There were a few things I noticed right off. When there is a request to implement or build a rules engine it is very often (I'm guessing a solid 40-60% of the time) reasoned that there is a need solely based on […]

The Next Wave of SMB SaaS: True Solutions. Priced as Such.
By Jason M. Lemkin on July 8, 2014
If you look at the SaaS companies that have IPO'd to date, you'll see one common theme: almost all sell to Large Enterprises, either almost entirely (Veeva, Workday), mainly (Salesforce, Cornerstone), or in large part (Box, coming). It just makes sense. The reason isn't just because Large Enterprises have more money. In fact, as a […]

Want to Know What Marc Andreessen's Magic on Twitter is? Hint: It's Not Tweetstorming
By Mark Suster on June 30, 2014
By now almost everybody knows that Marc Andreessen has taken Twitter by storm. By Tweetstorm, that is.

Should Facebook Get Into the Employee Collaboration Space?

An article in Techcrunch yesterday says that Facebook may be working on using their platform for internal collaboration.

Getting Started with Swift, For NON-Apple Devs

That burning sensation in the chest after a series of full-court sprints; the one so intense that the lungs feel ill-equipped to withstand it and the body is pushed to the brink of submission. That's what Yao Ming desires most since injuries to his feet and left ankle forced him into retirement less than two years ago. "It's very painful," Yao said in a recent telephone interview, "but I don't know why, I kind of miss that."

Our pre-k picks: Manhattan & the Bronx
Here are our recommendations for pre-kindergarten in the Bronx and Manhattan public schools, based on our school visits and the results of the city's parent and teacher surveys. We didn't include some very popular schools that receive hundreds of applications for a handful of seats. Instead, we tried to find some good schools that aren't hopelessly oversubscribed.
Lower East Side
If you live on the Lower East Side, you're in luck. Every school in District 1 has full day pre-kindergarten classes and all offer tours to prospective parents. There are no zoned schools in the district. Some of the schools are known for their progressive philosophy and high levels of parent involvement, including Earth School, Children's Workshop and East Village Community. The Neighborhood School shares a building with PS 63 William McKinley/STAR Academy, which is expanding its pre-k program from one to two classes. Shuang Wen has long been a top-scoring school serving primarily Asian families who want their children to be fluent in both English and Mandarin. Under new leadership, the school has become more welcoming to non-Asian children who want to learn Mandarin. Some schools have space for families outside the district.
Upper East Side, Midtown and downtown
District 2, a huge district that stretches from 96th Street on the East Side and 59th Street on the West Side all the way down to the Battery, has some of the best and most popular schools in the city. Unfortunately, there are far more applicants than spots in pre-kindergarten. A brand new school, PS 340 Sixth Avenue Elementary, in Chelsea, will offer two pre-k classes in the morning and two in the afternoon. If you're looking for full day options popular Midtown West is opening its first pre-k class, PS 116 Mary Lindley Murray is opening two classes and PS 40 Augustus Saint-Gaudens is opening one. PS 126 and PS 1 Alfred Smith are terrific schools that sometimes have room for children outside their attendance zones.
Upper West Side and Harlem
District 3 covers the west side of Manhattan. Most of the schools on the Upper West Side have far more applicants than seats, but PS 191 sometimes has seats for children outside its attendance zone. In Harlem, we loved our visits to the Early Childhood Discovery and Design Magnet (with a hands-on engineering program and LEGO Lab) and PS 180 (which boasts a strong arts program). We haven't visited PS 76, but parent and teacher surveys say it has a friendly vibe and strong leadership.
East Harlem
East Harlem has long been a pioneer of innovation and school choice and is home to popular progressive schools such as Central Park East I, and Central Park East II, which receive hundreds of applicants for only 18 full day pre-k seats. Try a hidden gem like River East instead, which is opening a new pre-k class. We haven't visited PS 102, PS 146 or PS 155 recently, but positive surveys of parents and teachers suggest they are worth considering.
Central Harlem
District 5 in Central Harlem has long had some of the lowest-performing schools in the city. However, there are a few bright spots: We loved our visit to Teachers College Community School (although competition for seats there is fierce.) Our recent visit to PS 200 suggests that it's moving in the right direction. We haven't visited PS 125 or PS 197 recently, but parent and teacher surveys are positive.
Washington Heights and Inwood
District 6 once had very overcrowded schools, but enrollment has declined in recent years as the neighborhoods of northern Manhattan have gentrified. Some of the most popular schools have far more applicants than seats. You may have a better chance at three schools we visited recently: Washington Heights Academy, Castle Bridge and PS 128.
South Bronx
District 7 in the South Bronx has mostly low-performing schools, but we can recommend the pre-kindergarten at a few schools we that we have visited. PS 5 has strong leadership and a happy cohesive staff. PS 25 has an amazing science exploration center. PS 157 boasts a good arts program.
Soundview and Throgs Neck
In District 8, we enjoyed our visit to PS 152, which often takes kids from outside across its attendance zone. PS 69 and PS 304 are terrific schools but they are flooded with applicants. It doesn't hurt to apply, but don't get your hopes up. We haven't visited PS 182 in quite a while, but parent and teachers surveys say it's a safe school with strong leadership and solid academics.
Grand Concourse, Morrisania, Crotona Park
District 9 is on the western edge of the south Bronx and is home to Yankee Stadium and much of the revitalization in the south Bronx. Best bet here: PS 63, which our reviewer called "an oasis of calm."
Riverdale, Wave Hill, Central Bronx
One of the most overcrowded districts in the city, District 10 is also the top-performing district in the Bronx. A few schools are adding new pre-kindergarten seats: Bronx New School and a new school opening on Webster Avenue called Bedford Park Elementary.
Northeast Bronx
District 11, covering the northeast Bronx including Pelham Parkway, Eastchester and Woodlawn, has space opening up at Linden Tree Elementary, a new small school that strives to be attentive to children's different learning styles. PS 160 Walt Disney is one of the best bets for getting a spot in this area with three full day classes opening in the fall and good leadership, according to teacher surveys.
Crotona Park
District 12 is smack dab in the middle of the Bronx so it's worth checking all the bordering districts to find borough-wide options. Bronx Little School is a safe, welcoming place with high-expectations, but over 200 families applied for 18 seats in 2013. Samara Community School is a new school opening in the fall hosting one full day pre-k.
Our pre-k picks for Brooklyn
Brooklyn is the city's largest borough and the one with most schools. Pre-kindergarten choices are as varied as the borough. In some areas of brownstone Brooklyn, pre-k programs don't meet the demand. Even parents who list 12 schools on their application will be disappointed. In other areas—such as Fort Greene or Bedford Stuyvesant—parents have more options.
Don't be afraid to look at historically low-performing schools: in some cases pre-kindergarten programs are excellent and expanding, even if the school as a whole has a long way to go. Further out in Brooklyn, half-day programs can be the norm, especially in Districts 21 and 22. We haven't found much to recommend in central Brooklyn, where school environment surveys reflect a discontent with the tone of the buildings. We advise you to take a look and let us know what you find.
Manhattan schools join anti-test protests
(This story first appeared on DNAInfo.com)
More than 30 public elementary schools — including TriBeCa's top-ranked P.S. 234 and the Upper East Side's P.S. 59 — are set to participate in protests Friday to blast the state's standardized English exams.
The planned protests by schools in Manhattan's District 2 — which also includes Greenwich Village and Chelsea — are part of a growing anti-testing movement in some of the city's most esteemed public schools. Last week, a protest at Park Slope's P.S. 321 drew hundreds of teachers, parents and students who complained about age-inappropriate content and poorly explained multiple-choice questions that seemed to have no one right answer.
Now, the 31 Manhattan elementary schools are planning an even bigger demonstration at each of their schools Friday morning, to demand that the exams be released to the public as soon as they have been graded.
G&T: Fewer qualify; rich-poor gap persists
Nearly one-third of the 14,600 rising kindergartners who sat for Gifted & Talented assessments in January and February found out today that they qualified for one of the city's district or citywide G&T programs. That's about six percent fewer than qualified in 2013, according to Department of Education data released Friday afternoon. The number of children who scored in the 99th percentile--the score usually necessary for a chance at entry into one of the five coveted citywide G&T--programs also fell, from more than 1,450 last year to about 950 this year.
Even with the lower number of qualifiers, there are still three times as many top-scoring tykes than there are seats in the five most selective citywide programs which have only about 300 seats for incoming kindergartners. Further decreasing the odds of entry, qualifying siblings of current students get first dibs at those seats.
The gap in student performance between richest and poorest districts remains wide but there were gains in Harlem and Washington Heights. In Districts 4 (East Harlem), 5 (Harlem) and 6 (Washington Heights and Inwood) nearly twice as many students scored in the top percentile than did last year.
Parents were notified of their child's score today along with an application listing their progam options. Families who do not get their results by Monday, April 7, should call the DOE at 718-935-2009. Families have until April 21 to apply one of the gifted programs, but since schools are closed for spring vacation from April 14-22, parents have only next week to visit schools. A list of open houses is posted on the DOE's website here. Letters of acceptance for regular, non-gifted, kindergarten programs will be sent during the spring break. G&T applicants won't find out until May 26 if they have been offered a spot.
City creates 4,200 new full-day pre-k seats
Some highly sought-after schools that lacked pre-kindergarten programs will now have them. Mayor Bill de Blasio announced today the city will add more than 4,200 new full-day pre-k seats at 140 public schools in September, thanks to $300 million in funding from the state that was approved over the weekend.
There are three new programs in popular midtown Manhattan schools: Midtown West, PS 116 and PS 40. In Chinatown, PS 130 is offering a full day instead of a half-day program, and PS 124 will house three classes. In Brooklyn's District 15, the new Maurice Sendak Community School will have 66 seats, up from the 30 originally planned. PS 15 in Red Hook is offering 84 slots. PS 20 in Fort Greene will have two classes, instead of one.
In the Bronx, perennially popular Bronx New School will offer two full-day classes, not one and PS 23 in Fordham will have 48 seats. In Queens, new programs will open at PS 290 in Maspeth and PS 63 in Ozone Park and at two new schools that will open in the fall, PS 343 in Corona and PS 316 in South Ozone Park. PS 175 in Rego Park will also offer three classes. In Staten Island, 15 schools have either created new programs, added additional seats or are expanding half-day programs to full-day.
15 charter schools opening, apply by April 1
Amid the debate surrounding charter schools in the city, 15 new charter schools will be opening in the fall, adding to the 183 already operating in New York City. The majority of the new schools are part of established charter networks, including Success Academy, Achievement First and Ascend Schools. A few of the new schools are independent "mom and pop" charters that aren't part of a larger network.
Applications for most charter schools are due by April 1 with admissions lotteries held in early April. Parents may submit applications to multiple schools at once using the online Common Charter School Application on the New York City Charter School Center website. Parents should also contact the schools that they wish to apply to directly to make sure that they understand all the application requirements. Admissions to charter schools is determined by lottery, giving priority to residents of the district where the school is located. Some charters have additional admissions priorities.
In a charter's first year, there is frequently space for out-of-district students, as some families are reluctant to take a chance on a school until it has a track record. All charter schools keep waitlists so even if you miss the application deadline, if you are interested in a school it's worth asking to be put on the waitlist.
68,000 families apply to kindergarten
Some 68,000 parents of children born in 2009 used the new Kindergarten Connect system between Jan. 13 and Feb. 20 to apply to kindergarten for fall 2014, the Department of Education announced on Friday afternoon. This year approximately 74,000 five-year-olds are enrolled in kindergarten.
Of those applicants, 70 percent submitted online applications, 17 percent applied over the phone and 13 percent went in person to an enrollment office.
Nearly one-fourth of the phone applicants used a translation service for 10 different languages. That was the only way for non-English-speakers to apply because online applications were only in English. Earlier this month, DNAInfo reported that some non-English-speaking parents -- and those without emails or computers -- were finding it difficult to access the system. The DOE pushed back the application deadline by nearly a week to allow more time for families to apply.
Families who missed applying online may still apply in person at an enrollment center or by calling 718-935-2009. They will get their offers in May, a month later than earlier applicants.
Charter schools have a different application and timeline. You can apply online using a common application or each's charter school's application. Those are not due until April 1.
Read the DOE's press release here.
DOE extends Kindergarten Connect deadline
With the Friday, Feb. 14 deadline looming for parents of kids born in 2009 to apply online to kindergarten, the Department of Education extended the Kindergarten Connect deadline to the following Thursday, Feb. 20.
The decision to give parents additional time to register was announced Feb. 12 by schools Chancellor Carmen Fariña.
In a press release, the DOE said that the new Kindergarten Connect application process has been "hugely successful: 85 percent of parents responding to our application survey have described the process as easy or very easy."
But the new application system has its detractors -- particularly for families who don't speak English or don't have computers or email addresses. In a report earlier this week, DNAInfo.com wrote about problems some parents are having accessing and understanding Kindergarten Connect. ""The DOE has tried to make [the process] more equitable, but actually it's isolated the families who can't keep up with all of this," Upper West Side parent Jennifer Friedman, told DNAInfo.
While parents have almost a whole week more to consider their options and fill out an application, what they won't have is more time to tour schools. All schools will be on break next week for President's Week.
How can you find out about schools? Read the profiles on Insideschools and check out our new InsideStats data on every elementary school page. Be sure to read the school comments. Our Q&A about applying is here. The DOE has directories for each borough, listing every school. Check it out online or pick one up at an enrollment office.
Enrollment offices will be open to receive kinderggarten applications from 8 am to 3 pm, Monday through Friday. Or call 718-935-2400. (Make sure you know the list of schools you wish to apply to before you call.) Apply online here.
Kindergarten applicants find it hard to connect
Friday, Feb. 14 is the last day for parents of incoming kindergartners to apply to schools online via Kindergarten Connect. But parents who don't speak English, or don't have an email address, are finding it hard to connect, DNAInfo found.
(This story first appeared on DNAInfo.com; by Amy Zimmer and Gustavo Solis)
Maribel Vega doesn't own a computer, has no email address and speaks only Spanish — all of which made it extremely difficult to sign up her 5-year-old daughter, Ashley, for kindergarten this year.
That's because in order to use the city's Kindergarten Connect system, which went live in January and has open enrollment through Feb. 14, Vega needed to be digitally savvy, and be able to read and fill out an English-only application. Thankfully for her, she found workers at the Upper West Side's Bloomingdale Family Head Start Program to help walk her through every step of the process.
"They helped with everything," said Vega, 25, who moved to the Bronx from Mexico six years ago. "I don't know where we would have found another computer to use.
InsideStats give lowdown on K-5 schools
If you're looking for an elementary school for your child, you want to know: Do most parents and teachers recommend the school? Is it welcoming? How many students are in a kindergarten class? Is the atmosphere calm or rowdy? How do children do on standardized tests?
Now, just in time for the Feb.14 deadline to apply to kindergarten, we've got the answers to those questions for 735 public elementary schools, including charters. Our new feature, called Insidestats, presents easy-to-read data on elementary schools on each school's profile page. For example, you can see that at popular PS 321 in Park Slope, 97 percent of the teachers think the principal is a good manager.
Data is drawn from the Department of Education's parent and teacher surveys as well as the results of standardized tests and other DOE statistics. (We'll have stats for schools with grades K-8 posted soon!) The new feature is similar to Insidestats for high schools and middle schools, but for elementary schools, we include information about what parents think of the school.

The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), the National Institute on Aging (NIA), and the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) invite grant applications for Alzheimer's disease (AD) drug discovery.*
AD is one of the most persistent and devastating disorders of old age because it eventually leads to a complete loss of memory and the ability to function independently. An estimated four and a half million people in the United States have AD in its various stages and a projected 14 million people and their families could be affected by AD by the middle of this century if no new treatments are developed. The purpose of this announcement is to stimulate the discovery, development, and preclinical testing in cellular, tissue, and animal models of novel compounds for the prevention and treatment of the cognitive impairment and behavioral symptoms associated with AD.
The development of compounds for ameliorating, modifying, or improving potential aberrations in neuronal cellular communication mechanisms is encouraged. These compounds should be designed to affect fundamental processes, such as the neuronal dysfunction, death, and loss of connectivity associated with the disease by targeting molecules and mechanisms such as neurotransmitters, neuromodulators, and neurotrophins; receptors and ion channels; second and third messenger systems; all facets of relevant amyloid precursor protein, amyloid beta protein, and tau neurobiology; protein synthesis, aggregation, and degradation; energy utilization; and oxidative, immunological, and inflammatory mechanisms.
For more information, potential applicants should contact Dr. Diane Murphy, Program Director, Neurodegeneration Cluster, NINDS, Neuroscience Center, 6001 Executive Boulevard, Room 2222, Bethesda, MD 20892; telephone: 301-496-5680; fax: 301-480-1080; e-mail: email@example.com.
