Benefits for Non-Profits
Thank You Message & Tax Receipt
Saying "Thank You" is vitally important. Our online fundraising store enables you to create a customized "Thank You" message that is displayed on the order confirmation screen as well as the emailed receipt. Once we confirm that an organization is a 501c(3) non-profit, we enable language that is placed on the supporters paid receipt that indicates that the donated portion of the transaction qualifies as a year-end charitable contribution.
Your Own Online "Apparel Store"
Despite wanting to wear apparel that promotes your non-profit, it's often not a great financial move to order a bunch of branded shirts and hope you've guessed right on sizes, colors, and styles. We've got great news! You don't have to guess. Just work with us to create your design, and we'll take care of the rest. We'll take online orders and ship directly to your supporters. Want to order some apparel to sell on site or do you want to collect offline orders for an event – we can provide you tees at wholesale. Learn more about custom apparel >>
Know Your Donors
Donor relationships are the lifeblood of any non-profit. We can help you understand who your supporters are by showing you who participated in the fundraiser. Just check out the Campaign Performance tab on your Administrative screen to see a list of your supporters.
Success Story
I've been looking for a sustainable way to raise money for my non-profit org. Plus, we've always wanted to offer custom apparel without investing a lot of money in inventory. (View fundraiser page)

Taking inspiration from the outdoors in the form of a wheelbarrow, ONEMANDUO designed a contemporary lounge chair named Rapide for Estonian company Borg.
Combining a contemporary and curvy form with the functionality of being able to move it, the chair makes for a practical seating option.
The oversized, wooden wheels not only transport the chair from place to place, they also add a decorative element that ties in the two legs and handle on the back.
Now you can easily haul your chair to another room without scratching your floors to breaking your back.

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. >> A few years ago, Tim Reed was in his shop in Glen Falls where he sold hand-made arts. Usually when business was slow, Tim would play some music, typically his son Sam's.
On that particular day, a gentleman entered the store searching for earrings.
"I had never met him before, but he was at the cash register and he got very thoughtful," said Tim. "He said, 'Who is this?' He knows a lot about music and recognizes everybody. So we just started talking and he said, 'Well, if he wants to have a career in music have him give me a call and we will talk.'"
Sam, who was a senior at Saratoga Springs High School at the time, reached out to Stu Kuby shortly after.
Kuby, a former record producer, lives in Glen Falls and he began working with Sam.
Sam calls Kuby his mentor. The two of them began working on an EP called "Differences," which deals with issues like climate change, Native American rights and immigration.
Earlier this month, Sam released the five-song work on iTunes and Spotify. Kuby not only produced the EP, but he brought in musicians to back-up Sam's guitar-playing and vocals.
Grammy nominated guitarist Hui Cox and Indian Tabla player Devesh Chandra appeared on songs, while on "The Pipeline," which deals with the Dakota Access Pipeline, Sam recorded the song with a Mohawk Healer named Zelda Hotaling who contributed traditional Native American chants to the song.
Four of the songs were finished in Glen Falls with engineer Alan Dunham of Lylac studios. The other song was done with John Wager of Galileo Media Arts in Saratoga.
Sam, who is 20 years old, first began playing bass before switching to guitar, but he never sang. At age 12, Sam opened his own business selling eggs called Stone House Market that included fresh poultry meat from chickens and turkeys. He did that for six years or so before pursuing music.
"It was great. I met a ton of people from it," said Sam Thursday afternoon. "It's kind of a funny transition because I went from chicken farming to telling everyone I was being a musician."
The transition surprised even his parents, who had no clue their son was writing songs midway through high school.
Sam had been recording songs at his friend's house when he let his parents listen to the finished product.
Sam's parents enjoyed the songs but didn't recognized their son's vocals. Partly because they didn't know he was a singer, but also because of Sam's unique voice, which he labeled as "kind of different than most."
"A woman said 'If Dave Matthews and Bob Marley had a love child, it would sound like that,'" said Tim.
The voice stuck out to Kuby, but so did the message behind the voice.
"One's about immigration. I have references to climate change in a bunch of them, and some political references having to do with current things, so the whole EP is based on current events. I felt like in this time we kind of need something like that," said Sam. "Stu and I were talking [about how] in the '60s and the '70s there was so much music about protesting and stuff with a lot of meaning — and a lot less so now it seems like, at least in popular music. We were thinking we wanted to try to bring that back by making modern, current sounding songs, but with that kind of message."
Tim said he has been a proud parent, watching his son do something he loves.
"It's fantastic. We love his music, not just for the message — we do like that because we are all pretty much on the same page political in our house," said Tim. "But it's cool because there are surprises. He'll come down and say, 'I wrote a new song and it's way better than anything I've written before.' And we like what he's written before so, we can say 'Nah, it couldn't be.' And then he plays it and we go, 'Wow, that's really good.'"
The goal for Sam next is to sign with a record label. Shortly after the EP was released, Kuby, Sam and Tim ventured down to New York City, meeting with three separate labels.
Sam, who works as a kennel assistant at Saratoga Veterinary Hospital, already has an album-worth of songs ready to be recorded. Meanwhile, he'll play next month at the Strand Theatre in Hudson Falls.

Some (including the ID crowd) accept microevolution defined as observable adaptations in populations, while rejecting macroevolution defined as the never observed and very much doubtful Darwinist "common descent". The problem is that micro and macro are just generic qualifiers that come in pairs, while evolution – the word retained – is in fact the concept in question.
Accepting microevolution creates confusion and is self defeating for those that reject Darwinist macroevolution. A better choice than microevolution is adaptation – an ancient concept (predates evolution), and an observed feature of all living organisms.

The late 35th US president. John I Kennedy, once said "Change is the law of life and those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future".
The new Malaysian Code on Corporate Governance (Code) recently launched by the Securities Commission Malaysia is certainly an apt testament of what change entails. The new Code is significantly novel and vastly different from the previous versions issued in March 2000 and the subsequent revisions in 2007 and 2012.
It is a living yet revolutionary document that sets the pace for advancements in corporate governance standards. A key thrust of the new Code is its outcome-based approach which is laconically under-pinned by the moniker "CARE" (C- Comprehend; A- Apply and RE- Report). The moniker is not just a noun: it is a call for action.
Companies are now urged to CARE about corporate governance by giving effect to the spirit behind the practices and appreciating the significance of the principles in supporting long term value creation.

I had the amazing good fortune (and great parents) to do my A-levels abroad – in the UK to be more precise. My folks were living in Dubai, and I, an absolutely clueless, brainless teenager, was studying there on my own. It was initially terrifying, but turned out to be 2 of the happiest years of my life. Without exaggeration.
My college was in a dinky little town called Scunthorpe, with a mostly local population. The entire migrant population consisted of international students at my college. The other students had grown up together, and thus went through school and then college in their established cliques. It was then fairly natural for the aliens (international students) to bond. And bond we did. Aside: At one point our group consisted of: several Omanis, a Qatari, two Sudanese, a Filipino, several Chinese – both Mandarin and Cantonese – , a Spaniard, and a Turkish dude. Oh and me, the Indian, shockingly the minority.
Apart from the Spanish girl and the Turkish dude, we came from conservative regions and thus we unused to the whole "student worker" concept. However, our other classmates all had jobs. OK, maybe not all, but the vast majority certainly.
My then best friend decided to jump on the bandwagon as well. For some extra pocket money to blow on clothes and the like. And she got a job at an Indian restaurant in town called Indian Ocean.
It had a signboard depicting a mermaid, clutching a pearl, and reclining suggestively in an oyster shell. It was a smidge above shady, with red velvet upholstery, and a blue carpet. There were brass lanterns lighting the tables, adding to the slightly dog-eared look, but possibly intended to lend atmosphere.
One fine day, she took me along as well. She worked there three nights a week, and she hardly had any time to hang out anymore. It was then we had an epiphany: I should work there too!
This decision wasn't prompted by a great entrepreneurial spirit nor because of an impetus to learn. Not even with the thought of earning some pocket money to spend at TopShop. (OK, Claire's.) The pay was minimum wage (or less, I think) and we were meant to work eight hours a day. So the lucre obviously wasn't the attraction either. Working with my pal was the big draw.
I met the owner, a nice, older Bangladeshi man with a red beard. He was happy to have me work there, because I was enthusiastic and the only actual Indian in a restaurant owned and managed by Bangladeshis. And of course the cheap labour was awesome too.
I was thrilled, and leapt into action. My 'training' lasted about half an hour, most of which was spent learning how to pull pints without filling the glass with just foam. My friend balked at the thought of serving alcohol, because she was Muslim. I, being Hindu, had no such qualms.
It was very exciting; my very first job! My friend and I stumbled out exhausted by the end of it, but it was magnificent fun.
It lasted a few weeks. I realised very much in retrospect that there was only one rather glaring problem. I was 15, and wasn't legally allowed to drink alcohol, let alone sell it.

DigitalChalk CEO to Lead Discussion at DevLearn Conference(October 20, 2017)
ASHEVILLE, NC (PRWEB) October 20, 2017
DigitalChalk's CEO, Russ Stinehour, will speak on the User Experience (UX) and 508 compliance at the DevLearn conference in Las Vegas, Nevada on October 25th. DevLearn is a major eLearning conference, drawing industry leaders and innovators together to discuss and present on the latest technological developments and approaches to eLearning. The conference dedicates itself to presenting ways that educators can implement the latest emerging technologies into a learning environment by bringing in experts from the field to discuss new technological trends and how to best utilize them for learning.
As one of those leaders and innovators, Stinehour will be presenting twice at DevLearn 2017. Himself legally blind, Stinehour will present at a DevLearn session he calls Beyond 508: Inclusive Learning for All of Us, which deals specifically with how to create a User Experience (UX) that goes beyond basic compliance with US Section 508 standards. He offers UX design considerations that take into account users with low vision, dyslexia, and other disabilities not explicitly covered by Section 508. Specifically, Stinehour plans to talk about how to include accommodating UX in web design and Learning Management Systems (LMS).
Additionally, Stinehour will lead a second discussion on accessibility at one of DevLearn's MorningBuzz group sessions.
In terms of how he believes his presentation will contribute to the implementation of more accessible UX, Stinehour says, "I hope to use this opportunity at DevLearn to provide an additional perspective on accessibility. The number of low vision users is increasing with an aging population and includes many people around all of us. Some of the challenges facing the low vision community are not well understood and designers need to think of solutions such as white space, clutter, contrast, and magnification differently."
DigitalChalk (http://digitalchalk.com) is the leading provider of learning management system (LMS) solutions, designed to help small to midsized businesses create, execute and manage their learning and development programs for employees and customers. Founded in 2006 by CEO Russ Stinehour and CTO Troy Tolle, DigitalChalk is known for its flexible full-featured LMS and superior customer service. DigitalChalk LMS gives businesses and corporate development professionals the ability to create and deliver training programs with engaging, impactful learning experiences for employees or customers, using their own training materials or a curated online course library.

For those who want to sell their courseware online, DigitalChalk's eCommerce Suite (built into the LMS platform), enables any business or individual to easily offer online courses with complete shopping, checkout, and payment processing functionality.

text: Just got a note from Tumblr that this blog turned 3 today. I tracked back a bit, to the first few posts made on April 30, 2007, which brought back many memories. That was the time some friends and I were in Uppsala for Valborg. And it was also the time I went for concerts and festivals, so many of them that I lost count. But more importantly, flipping through these early posts is interesting, amusing and to some extent, it leaves you with an other-worldly feeling. It's like you're looking at the 3 years younger you from behind a curtain and he can't see you. And you get this urge to evaluate and judge the decisions that guy made. But as Carl Sagan put it: "You can get into a habit of thought in which you enjoy making fun of all those other people who don't see things as clearly as you do. We have to guard carefully against it." To me, it was heartening to see these old posts; to understand the choices I made at a time when I did not have as much clarity on the road ahead as I do now in hindsight. We never really know how our decisions will play out until they do. And while I may have some regrets, I've become a better person for it. I hope I can say the same thing 3 years on.

"As anyone who cooks for one or two knows, it's hard not to get stuck with leftovers. Since many of the meals I cook consist of portions too large for one sitting, I normally separate the remaining recipe into one and two person serving containers, and then freeze. Sometimes, such as when we are having a hectic day or perhaps just don't feel like cooking from scratch, we combine two of the individual recipe portions to create a new recipe or take one of those retro cans of soup and combine it with one of the leftover portions of my own recipes. #NOTE:My recipe for Tuna Macaroni Casserole is included ..."

The first stage of your sloe berry "journey of discovery" has to be recognising and identify sloe berries and damsons (larger and more plumb like sloes with a very similar taste). Want to know how best to handle your sole haul? check out my post Sloe berry Splendour: Jam
|Sloe Berries
This is very important as there are a significant number of berries in British hedgerows that are poisonous and the rule of "don't eat red berries they're poisonous" is far from true.
Sloe berries and damsons are available for picking from around August however most people wait until September/October. This has nothing to do with taste and everything to do with finding them.
In autumn the bushes leaves fall, leaving the berries open to the picker. It's important to remember that these berries are a staple of many British birds diet and if you wait until the leaves fall you may have a battle on your hands actually obtaining a decent amount of fruit for your recipes.
The bushes local to me are huge which already limits what I can pick. Too high and I can't reach too low and there's the risk of inviting dog urine into the recipe, a very unwanted ingredient!! I therefore pick early to gain as much fruit as possible from my picking leaving plenty of low and high fruit behind for the birds to binge on.
There's lots of tips and tricks to picking and hundred of yummy recipes for these amazing fruits!
Do you have any tips and/or tricks you want to share for picking sloes or other wild berries. Add into the comments and share them with us.

There are many reasons why you should add yoga practice to your everyday routine for exercise. Yoga adds to health of your mind and body. It helps you relax and removes mental fog, improves your body balance, adds muscular tone and flexibility, and reduces your stress and much more. Even simply inhaling and exhaling through nose steadily (Pranayama) can improve your overall health. But it can appear quite intimidating for the beginners. You should start slow; let your body to adapt to the new flexibility.
Popular yoga poses for beginners
- Mountain Pose: This one is a very simple to practice. Stand straight with your feet together, let your shoulder relaxed; put your arms at the sides. Take a full deep breath and slowly raise your hands overhead, make sure your arms are straight and palms are facing each other.
- Tree Pose: the next level for Mountain Pose is the Tree pose. First, stand tall with your arms resting at sides. Slowly shift body weight onto left leg. Place sole of your right foot inside of the left thigh. Next, bring your hands in prayer position. Inhale and extend your arms over shoulder with palms facing each other. Stay for 40 seconds and repeat it with other leg.
- Bridge Pose: it is one of the most popular. Lie on a floor mat with your knees bent. Put your arms at sides. Try to press your feet to raise your hips and exhale. Clasp your hands under your back. Try to lift your hips so that thighs are parallel with the floor. Stay for 1 minute.
- Cobra Pose: for this, lie on the mat with leg extended so that tops of your feet faces the mat. Try to tighten your pelvic muscles. Push the floor in order to raise your chest up, making it upright. Hold the position for 30 seconds and relax.
- Knee Bridge Pose: sit down on floor on your knees. Slowly bend your upper body forward. Put your palms on the floor. Now, try to press the floor, making your whole body weight to shift on your arms and exhale.
Yoga brings so many benefits to your life. But if you are new to yoga, it is recommended to start slowly, practicing basic poses first. Once you are comfortable and your body gets flexible with time, you can try more complex forms. It is also recommended you to enroll in a yoga class, which will provide more instructions and demonstrations.

Bill Gates says internet bubble is back
Speaking to journalists in Belgium last week, Bill Gates warned against the rush to new web-based software service, and compared this to the doomed 1990s internet bubble.
Google's deal to pay $1.65 billion in stock for YouTube, an online video company that has yet to turn a profit, has led some commentators to revive talk of an internet bubble.
We've always stopped short of calling it a bubble, for a number of reasons, but certain recent funding rounds are making us reconsider our stance...

Usability and visibility problems affect online insurers
Foolproof's 2006 Online Shopping Survey into insurance predicts rapid growth in online purchasing of motor and home insurance policies, but points out that growth is hampered by poor usability.
The good news for online insurers is that consumers see the benefits of avoiding long phone calls for quotes and insuring online, but insurers are urged to make improvements, especially when it comes to usability.
Eight second rule for e-commerce websites now halved

Microsoft in cool-envy, Zune to be a 'dismal failure' - BusinessWeek
In an article called 'Zune: Falling Down On Cool' BusinessWeek savages the forthcoming Microsoft device, predicting that "by this time next year, it will be considered a dismal failure".
And the reason why it will fail? Because it isn't cool, and neither is Microsoft, says BusinessWeek. It adds that attempting to become cool is the only reason that Microsoft is launching the Zune in the first place.
Authored by Arik Hesseldahl, the article states that "the Zune will be seen for what it is: a me-too product that is expressing Microsoft's envy at not being cool".
Maybe so, but business isn't really about 'being cool'. 'Cool' helps with product marketing and customer aqcuisition, but product quality and lifespan are key to customer retention, recommendations, and repeat business.
Speed matters, according to Google
Marissa Mayer, Google's vice president for search products and user experience, has revealed an interesting experiment carried out by the search engine a few years ago.
The goal of the experiment was to determine the ideal number of results to display in response to a search query. Google surveyed its users, who decided 30 results on a page would be best, rather than 10 or 20.
Search Engine Keywords Research for the Finance Industry
ClickThrough Marketing has released a paid search keywords report for the finance sector, focusing on loans. It provides details on a number of searches for a range of keyphrases.

Fresh New and Blue: it's sing-along-time
Round about this time of year, I change the blog's visual theme.
I have no idea why I hadn't found this theme in the past, as it sits nicely with my business card, and is so fresh and clean.
In Brisbane this morning it's fresh, sunny and cool, and there's a song for that!
Now play the video and sing along. Singing is very, very good for our Lung qi – a vital energy.
Traditional Chinese Medicine understands our Lungs are like a bellows which pumps qi through our bodies. Lung qi also oversees our immunity and assists with fluid metabolism. Grief and loss cause Lung qi to dissipate. So really, truly sing out loud!

"A legacy of Dutch colonialism, this "thousand layer cake" is often served after the rijsttafel but will do equally well served with the coffee or tea. This is a very rich cake and should be served in thin slices. I found this at Indochef.com I've made something like this years ago. (This is optional) Spread a thin layer of warmed jam and every 2 layers and spread chocolate after the next 2 layers of batter was baked. Be sure to stay with the cake as you cook it. My picture show of the cake made in a 10 inch so you'll get more layers when baking in a 9 inch. This is also great without the spices and just the jam and chocolate layers."

I originally wrote this as my part of my application to Princeton University which was also incomplete (and still is). I should perhaps copy part of the post in relation to the problems which misdiagnosing individuals with psychosis causes in that it provides necessary context. You may wish to skip this section which is highlighted if you have already read it.
Let us state that an entity known as entity A finds it convenient, according to a generally policy, for individual B to be diagnosed with a form of psychosis, even though his EPR, which is publicly known, invalidates such a diagnosis.
An obvious concern would be that the research studies performed by the SRI make access to scientific data of an objective, precise and verifiable kind in relation to PR and psychosis, publicly available. In addition, through the usage of modern technology and big data, knowledge of the correlation will become increasingly available. As such, it would be difficult to sustain the view that such a diagnosis could be credible in the eye of the public.
One might ask whether such a policy is to the advantage of entity A to misdiagnose individuals, given the following very probable situations:
- A rival of entity A, which we shall call Entity C does not have a policy to define such individuals as psychotic. Their policy is instead to take advantage of the abilities and intelligence of such individuals. The difference between their approaches to those with EPR means they are stronger than Entity A.
- Entity C wishes to seek advantage and to damage entity A by enticing individual B to work for them through a recognition of their abilities and through informing them that they are not experiencing psychosis.
- Furthermore, in order to damage the reputation of entity A, entity C makes it publicly known that individual B is being deliberately harmed by entity A.
One might argue that entity A could attempt to suppress knowledge of the fact that EPR negates the possibility of psychosis. It is however difficult to forsee how this could be achieved given that:
- It is doubtful whether entity A could persuade entity C or other entities to suppress knowledge of this correlation when it would be to their advantage not to do so. It is also doubtful whether entity C would suppress knowledge of that correlation as they would be able to cause reputation damage to entity A and to attract others like individual B.
- Through the increasingly availability of modern communications, it is difficult to see how the available data and knowledge of the correlation will not at some stage, become public knowledge. The policy of entity A will be become apparent to the public which would damage it in their eyes. As a consequence, there is a probability that others with EPR would look towards other entities.
- Each country wishes to gain competitive advantage through the scientific discoveries which are made by intelligent people. It remains difficult to see how each one of the 196 countries in the world can all agree to cooperate for the first time on concealing such a discovery especially given that countries like Russia do not employ such a system. In a competitive international environment, it is logical to expect that at least one country will choose not to deny but instead to take advantage of those who are highly intelligent but have witnessed/been subject to a system of surveillance and who as a consequence are labeled by the authorities as psychotic in order to discredit them and to conceal this system of surveillance.
As a consequence of the fact that the correlation is and will increasingly become public knowledge, one might like to ask the following questions:
- In cases where it is deemed advantageous for entity A to state that an individual with EPR is psychotic, how can they be aware of their level of EPR beforehand given that such data is not always currently available? In disregarding such measures, how can they avoid the possibility of encouraging that person to go toward entity C?
- How does one avoid a situation where those with EPR through such abilities notice that those with a low level of PR are being subject to incorrect treatment and encourage them to work for entity C?
- What would happen when an individual with EPR who is misdiagnosed with psychosis, realises the correlation and decides to take revenge by for example leaking information.
The conclusion which must be drawn is that it would be disadvantageous for entity A to have a general policy that for the sake of convenience, certain individuals should be diagnosed with psychosis.
In addition to the fact that would appear self-defeating to have a policy on the part of a state to diagnose individuals with a form of psychosis where that person complaints about human methods of surveillance which are currently concealed, one should also factor in a following seemingly unrelated consideration; it is probable that, in the not too distant future, artificial Intelligence will have sufficient capabilities to discover when individuals are telling the truth about what they perceive and that as such this objective determination of truth renders any counterclaim invalid.
As such, a policy by a state to ensure that, despite evidence to the contrary, individuals are deemed to be experiencing psychosis or to not be telling the truth about a the abuse by systems of surveillance would not appear to be a sustainable approach.
Consideration must therefore be given to alternatives.
Although I do not have the requisite expertise with regard to game theory and my conclusion is in all probability wrong as well as being somewhat incomplete, it is perhaps worth bearing in mind however that despite having no qualifications with regard to psychology, my conclusion that a high level of certain aspects of cognitive functioning negates the possibility of psychosis was confirmed by the Schizophrenia Research institute of Australia.
The best solution to the above problem would appear to be to imitate entity C. This evidently is at variance with the economic theory that best result comes from everyone in a group doing what is best for himself. It is also somewhat different in terms of its emphasis from current economic theory which states the best result comes from doing what is best for the group and oneself and which is perhaps questionable in that it appears to have formed some of the basis for the nuclear arms race in the late twentieth century.
Given the potential actions in the problem outlined above of Entity C with regard to those with a high level of ability, the best solution can only come when, out of self-interest, we attempt in the first instance to look after the interests of others who might be attracted by a rival entity due to policy of entity A, to repress intelligence for political reasons, out of a misguided sense of self-interest.
With less intelligence overall in a society, it is difficult to see how ones self-interest can be served in that such a society is necessarily weaker when faced with a society with more intelligence and by extension of this ones own self-interest is affected through the environment. One can imagine a situation in which there will be a race where out of self-interest, both entities must look towards the interests of others.
Our self-interest must therefore be necessarily be contingent upon (or to use a mathematical term, a dependent variable of) the interests of others such as individual B. That self-interest is not, as stated by the Nash equilibrium, equivalent to but is dependent upon the interests of others.
In order to attract such individuals, it would seem that prime consideration should be given to our own personal behaviour as well as interactions with others as opposed to, in the first instance, considerations of self-interest.

Babyproofing Your Home: 4 Ways to Ensure Your Baby's Safety
Babies and toddlers can be very active and busy and they tend to end up in places where they shouldn't. If you have a baby or toddler, it is very important that you babyproof your home. There are so many things that can be dangerous to them that we don't even think about. Make use of these four things to help you keep your little ones safe.
Get down to their level – The best way to recognize potential dangers is by looking at it from their point of view. When you get down on your knees, you will see the loose screw and the small gaps where fingers can get stuck and the heavy things they can pull down on themselves, etc.
Bathroom safety – Water is your biggest danger in the kitchen. Never leave your baby alone in the bath, not even if they are secure in a chair. Make sure the water temperature is right so they won't get scolded. Keep the toilet closed and install a safety latch. Keep all bath and beauty products out of their reach so they don't accidentally ingest it.
Kitchen safety – The kitchen can be very dangerous for a baby. They will pull on anything they can reach like pots, cloths, etc. It can easily happen that they pull on a pot handle and dump boiling water all over themselves. They want to turn knobs which could lead them to burn themselves. All sharp cutlery and utensils should be kept far out of their reach. Any cleaning products and poisons must be placed out of reach and preferably locked in a cabinet.
Other safety measures – Stairs can be very dangerous and you should install child gates at both the top and the bottom. Drape towels over doors to prevent them from closing completely. This will prevent your baby from slamming his fingers in the door. Stabilize heavy furniture and bookshelves to prevent the possibility of your baby pulling it over.
Courtesy of https://www.statefarm.com/simple-insights/residence/a-visual-guide-to-baby-proofing-your-home
These are the babyproofing basics. Once you have gone through all of these, take another look from their perspective to make sure you got everything. Always place your baby or toddler's safety first.

Graffiti, StreetArt, Public Spaces/Private Spaces —"We're starting to learn from the European example."
April 29th, 2013
On Tuesday April 16, 2013 I attended a town hall meeting at the Art Gallery of Ontario. Topic: War on graffiti. Making more public spaces available to art.
Those present tackled such questions as:
Does an owner have the right to put-up their idea of art on their property?
Do we need to give more public spaces for people to express themselves through art?
"Is street art criminal?
The speaker who impressed me most that evening was John Kiru, Executive Director, Toronto Association of Business Improvement Areas.
I believe his comments relating to Graffiti/StreetArt and Business are so important that I've transcribed them here for the record.
John Kiru (Toronto Association of B.I.A.s) on Graffiti as Art –Public (and Private) Spaces
John Kiru, Executive Director, Toronto Association of Business Improvement Areas, on Graffiti and Street Art, Ontario Gallery of Art, April 16, 2013
You know when we talk about public spaces, there seems to be a disconnect. Yet we talk about engaging the business people. The minute you engage the business people, it's actually private spaces that we're talking about. Literally.
The fact is with the BIAs across this city —74 of them, every year, and we have for years, allowed and opened up these private spaces to become canvasses for murals.
We've engaged hundreds, if not thousands of walls across this city, where we encourage local artists to come out and work with us. To either depict the community, the neighbourhood, the history. So we continue to support this.
I can tell you that the BIAs spends thousands and thousands of dollars seeking out artists to continue to develop this program.
BIAs have hung their brands on it. The Village of Islington —The Village of Murals. Church-Wellesley has just launched 12 new murals that they're going to be putting out there.
So there continues to be the opportunity —and it is not just public spaces, there's plenty of private spaces, if you will. Space that is sort of entrusted to Business Improvement Areas where they are turning that space into canvasses.
John Kiru, in response to "How do we open up private spaces for Art"?, Ontario Gallery of Art, April 16, 2013
….I'd probably like to run with the TTC idea, a little bit. And I think that we all agree that getting off at any number of the stations through the system, through the subway system, is blah at best.
I think there are some opportunities. I can think of the fashion district in New York when you get out and you have hats animating the floor.
I think there'd be an opportunity for —many BIAs would love the opportunity to help —create an atmosphere that is reflective of what's above ground. So as you pull into that station, you would know that you're coming in to the Spadina District and it has that as a reflection.
So I think there's some opportunities. There's some canvasses that are out there [inaudible] that are significantly better [inaudible].
That is an area that certainly worked very hard in terms of "Let's not turn them into the Coca Cola station and the Pepsi Station" and some of the stuff that's been going on.
Let's turn them into something that will give us a preamble into what's above the ground.
John Kiru, in response to "What's legal? Who determines what is acceptable"?, Ontario Gallery of Art, April 16, 2013
You know I really think that the last couple of years we've moved light-years ahead of where we were. There's no question. The program has worked. The program has set a foundation that we all understand.
Ultimately from our members' perspective obviously is, it still requires permission. You wanna use my wall, let me know what you're doing, we'll work [inaudible] whether it's BIA that's negotiating that or the private property owner.
We no longer need the toilet seat approach to it. It's up. It's down. It's up. It's down.
If we reach a consensus, we move forward. Quite frankly, you know, and again, the term was used up here. "One man's ceiling is another man's floor. What is Art?" And maybe there are [inaudible] at City Hall that can figure that out somewhere along the line.
But the bottom line is, we've moved forward. There are some great opportunities that we're getting here. And we'll continue to work with the people out there that are doing this stuff.
You know, what we don't need is, this graffiti on our windows. That is moved beyond that. That is the distinction. And I think that is the area that continues to trouble us. When you come out there and have your windows scratched out, it just means dollars that are going to have to be spent —to do that. So, there is that distinct difference.
We've made massive progress —massive progress. Business people, BIAs that would never want to see that stuff out there, or engage in that stuff. So. It's there.
We're getting there.
John Kiru, closing remarks, Ontario Gallery of Art, April 16, 2013
And if I can, just to carry on.
And I think one of the things that this has done for the councillors that are out there —and if you don't know, councillors sit on the boards of management of the BIAs. So they're very involved in the process and the operations of BIAs.
And what this has done is [inaudible] been a cause to an end in terms of it certainly beats the hell out of violation notices that are out there. People are putting up their walls because they don't want to deal with that sort of issue.
So it's caused an opportunity for people to move forward, animate those walls, animate the neighbourhoods and get away from that. So from that perspective I can tell you that there are a number of councillors who are very grateful because they're not, you know, hearing about victimizing the victim. The issues of that —I need an extension to that —we need to change that policy, and everything else.
Here is an opportunity —here is a way of dealing with an issue that was problematic. And I think we're that much closer —and again, is it perfect? Probably not. But we're a hell of a lot closer to where we need to be than we were two years ago.
John Kiru, final words of the evening, Ontario Gallery of Art, April 16, 2013
Thank you. And again, thanks for having us out here folks. This is the proverbial "Rome wasn't built in a day". And if any of you guys remember some of the cigarette commercials way back when when cigarettes were still sold and advertised —"We've come a long way, Baby". And, we have. We absolutely have. There is no question about that.
Keep on engaging us though, guys. We don't like surprises.
So. We'll work with ya. We want to animate those spaces because that's what brings customers out onto those streets. So if you-guys can make us unique —where we become a destination, be it for tourists, be it for locals, be it for anybody else that's out there.
Some of that art that I saw that you've got out there, we could certainly work with a number of BIAs that will draw the people that we want. The people that we want to spend time with.
This city, with the development that's out there, we need to animate our outdoor spaces. We're building pigeon coops that people are living in —6,400 square foot units etc.
Outdoor space is becoming more and more important. We're starting to learn from the European example where people are spending time on the street.
And I'm beyond my 30 seconds —I'm seeing a twitch over there. So, keep it up. But engage us. That's all we ask.
Thanks again.
"We're starting to learn from the European example…."

BELLEFONTAINE, Ohio — A married couple, both Ohio school superintendents, have been indicted on charges stemming from sexual assault allegations involving a girl under age 13.
Online records show 52-year-old Patrick O'Donnell and 46-year-old Heather O'Donnell, both of Lewistown, were in the Logan County Jail after their arrests Tuesday.
Patrick O'Donnell, superintendent of the Indian Lake Local Schools, was indicted on rape, sexual battery and gross sexual imposition charges. Heather O'Donnell is charged with child endangering. She's superintendent of Midwest Regional Education Services Center in Bellefontaine.
The Springfield News-Sun reports that a police affidavit says the girl alleged Patrick O'Donnell touched her inappropriately while his wife failed to report the allegations to police.
Patrick O'Donnell's attorney didn't return calls Wednesday. Court records don't list an attorney for his wife.

Dear WSM,
I read with interest the article on drugs in your last issue and agreed with it's overall thrust.
It should be noted, however, that the call for decriminalisation is not the unthinkable alternative it once was. It has been aired in 'The Economist' and other bosses' journals for several years now in response to the failure of tougher policing to deal with the problem.
But your proposal for the "legalising of heroin on prescription" falls short of an adequate response. All drugs should be legalised and sold under a State monopoly. Private companies would happily push (*every pun intended we presume ..editorial committee) the most addictive and expensive drugs in order to boost profit; they would find a way to cut drugs and sell inferior product.
While the legalisation of drugs would undermine the criminal syndicates, it is necessary to ensure that the corporate gangsters of the multi-national pharmaceutical companies don't replace the street gangsters. That is why a legalised drug industry should be nationalised and socialists should lead the demands for control by workers of drug production, sale and distribution.
On a separate note, I welcome the expulsion of pushers from communities when this is brought about by the self-activity of locals. The only ones who have a problem with this are the bleeding heart liberals who don't actually live in the working class community destroyed by drugs.
Like you I agree that expelling pushers is not a sufficient solution. Pushers will always find ways of dealing and alienated youth with no prospects will continually turn to drugs.
The problem can only be addressed concretely by the fight for community drug treatment programmes, administered by properly funded clinics run by the local communities themselves. In this way they could monitor the supply and quality, distribute clean syringes, etc.
We should recognise that the search for stimulation from drugs is as old as civilisation itself. Humans have always sought to "get off their heads". It's not drugs that are the problem per se. It's not drugs that kill you or bring crime to your community. It's contaminated product, high prices and uncontrolled use that need to be tackled instead.
Bernadette Barrington,
Dublin 12.
P.S. Is there a contradiction between your current position on decriminalisation and the following extract from Workers Solidarity of Summer 1994?
"We are not going to call for the decriminalisation of heroin dealing any more than other anti-social crimes like arson or rape"
Note from the Editorial Committee
The article in WS no.49 discussed above was a personal opinion piece, and does not necessarily represent the views of the Workers Solidarity Movement. An article discussing the question of legalisation of drugs in greater detail will appear in the next issue of this paper.
Patricia McCarthy, in Workers Solidarity no.50, wrote of communities organising themselves in the battle against heroin addiction and all the crime that follows in its wake. Their achievements have been impressive: local groups setting up their own treatment programmes, and showing the pushers that they aren't wanted. It's well summed up in the slogan that flies on banners from many inner city flat complexes: "Addicts We Care - Pushers Beware".
However there are very real limits to what more can be gained. The Citywide Drugs Crisis Campaign and the Inner City Organisations Network place a lot of emphasis on lobbying the government for more facilities, while the Coalition of Communities against Drugs (COCAD) puts more emphasis on removing pushers from localities.
The fact is that heroin addiction mainly effects people in areas with a lot of poverty and unemployment. There are not a lot of junkies in Dalkey or Castleknock. There are a lot in the inner city and some of the western suburbs. This is no accident.
People who don't believe they have much of a future, who can't see themselves being able to get a well paid job and a nice house, are those most vulnerable to a drug that offers instant bliss. Because capitalism is a system based on inequality, this problem will remain until we rise up and change the society we live in. But that is not to say that nothing can be done right now.
A militant fight by anti-heroin and community groups for well-paid jobs to be located in the most depressed areas would go some way towards lifting that depression and undermining the demand for drugs that are dangerous both to the user and the rest of the community.
Otherwise the options may become no more than marching people around to either (a) show the government agencies that the organisers represent something and should be 'consulted' about the problem; or (b) that there is support for a relatively small number of people 'sorting out' junkies and other anti-social types. Neither offers an answer, because neither tackles the root cause of the problem.
And to those who doubt that such a strategy could mobilise people, let them look to the houses in the north inner city. When the tenements were pulled down in the 1970s the Corporation wanted to send most locals off to the new estates in the foothills of the mountains. Most didn't want to go. A campaign of protests and disruption forced the Corpo to provide a lot more houses in the area.
Could we not force the IDA or semi-state firms to locate work in the areas most devastated by heroin if we had a strategy of road blockades, occupations of government offices, etc? It wouldn't solve the problem but it would be a start, and it would be an assertion that people in the inner city need dignity and financial security just as much as anyone else.
Alan MacSimóin,

Beneath me millions of colored lights pulsed in the darkness. My parents called it flying on the wings of the raven because the raven ushered souls across realms. We Traveled by summoning its power. This was the first part of the transition. It was beautiful. It was peaceful. It was fleeting. Then came the second part, my parents called that the landing, which was a nice way of describing it. It was more like crashing. I crashed down into someone else's dead body and had to force my way through the flesh and into the marrow. I can't lie. That part hurt.

General Dentistry for Kids in Alpharetta
Stonewalk Family Dentistry, located in Milton, GA, provides positive, anxiety-free general dentistry for kids in the Alpharetta area. Because we understand that many children feel anxious about dental visits, your child will meet with an experienced, comforting pediatric dentist, who will take the time to help younger patients feel more at ease in our care. Stonewalk Family Dentistry's team knows it is important to create positive dental experiences for younger patients, because these visits create the foundation of a lifetime of good oral habits and bright, healthy smiles.
We've even added some kid-friendly touches to our office to help children feel more at home:
- Cartoons above the dental chair
- Blankets and pillows
- Treasure chest with prizes
Dentistry for kids can be easy, educational and most of all, fun! Schedule an appointment with a kid-friendly dentist in the Alpharetta area by calling (770) 777-1911 or contacting our team online. However, if your child is younger than seven years of age, we will refer these cases to Dr. Nanna Ariaban at Polkadot Pediatric Dentistry. Although we have kid-friendly dentists on staff for children over the age of seven at Stonewalk Family Dentistry, toddlers and younger patients will benefit from the specialized care of Dr. Ariaban.
Your Child's First Visit with a Pediatric Dentist
Not sure when to bring your child in for his or her first check-up? Both the American Academy of Pediatrics and the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommend that children visit a pediatric dentist by age one. We provide general dentistry for kids over the age of seven, including tweens and teens, while younger children will be referred to the compassionate care of Dr. Nanna Ariaban at Polkadot Pediatric Dentistry.
Ensuring that your child visits a dentist by age one enables problems to be detected, treated early or avoided completely. More importantly, it can help establish a positive relationship between your child and their pediatric dentist.
During your child's first visit, your attitude is extremely important because it will influence your child's perception of not only our office, but dental visits in general. It is best if you refrain from using words around your child that might cause unnecessary fear, such as "needle," "pull," "drill" or "hurt." If you are not sure what to do, just let us do all the talking! We use vocabulary that is pleasant and easy-to-understand to explain everything we do in a fun and non-threatening manner. Your child will meet with a kid-friendly dentist who will allow them to touch many of the items that we will be using during the exam, so that they have some control and will feel empowered during their visit.
We offer comprehensive general dentistry for kids, beginning with a complete oral exam, especially if it is your child's first visit. Many times we will clean the teeth, apply topical fluoride and may take X-rays that allow your pediatric dentist to view the structure of the jaw, the position of any teeth that have not yet erupted, malformed roots and tooth decay.
The initial visit also involves getting your child's medical history. When you share your child's medical history with the doctor, be sure to provide complete, up-to-date information. It is also important to inform your dentist of any fears your child may have about dentistry for kids, including treatments and procedures. The information collected in your first visit will help his or her kid-friendly dentist select the safest and most effective method of treatment for your child.
Alpharetta-Area Preventive Dentistry for Kids
- Prevention
Prevention is a fundamental part of general dentistry for kids, because it enables us to diagnose and treat problems early. We want to resolve issues before they get more serious and minimize the time and money you spend on dental care.
- Dental Sealants
Your child's pediatric dentist will create dental sealants by filling in grooves on the chewing surfaces of back teeth where food particles get caught and cause cavities. The application is fast and comfortable, and sealants can effectively protect your child's teeth for many years.
- Custom Athletic Mouthguards
We can create a custom-fitted soft plastic mouthguard to protect your child's teeth, gums, lips and cheeks from sports-related childhood injuries. Athletic mouthguards can even help prevent severe injuries to the face, jaw and head.
- Dental Health Habit Counseling & Appliances Available
"Comfort sucking" is perfectly normal for infants and toddlers, and many stop by the age of two. However, if these habits persist, they can create crooked teeth or bite problems. The constant pressure from a pacifier, thumb or finger can cause the upper front teeth to tip toward the lip or not come in properly, which in turn affects your child's bite, jaw and bone growth.
If the habit continues beyond age three, professional evaluation is recommended. We understand that the topic must be treated with patience and sensitivity, and your child's pediatric dentist will gladly suggest ways to gently address any habit.
Have questions about preventive or general dentistry for kids? Call (770) 766-9651 or contact us online to speak with an experienced kid-friendly dentist about our services.
