Magnetic Covers for iPad (7&10) / Nexus (7/10) - $9 Delivered from Kogan

I've always found these magnetic covers pointless. Mates of mine that bought one eventually discarded them. Just get a proper case that protects your iPad and serves a purpose

This is Belkin Leather Folio, i think i paid $40-$50. Protects my iPad, can stand at adjustable angles and the magnetic clasp triggers the wake/sleep status. Also, looks beautiful :).

(AP) ? A car came crashing into a Kansas City day care center Tuesday when a sport utility vehicle rear-ended a parked Cadillac, injuring the SUV's driver and three children, police said.

The Cadillac was parked and had no driver when the Range Rover rear-ended it, pushing it into the day care and trapping two children under the Cadillac. The three children were being treated for mild to moderate injuries, said Children's Mercy spokeswoman Jessica Salazar. The SUV's driver, meanwhile, was in stable condition at a hospital, Kansas City police Capt. Tye Grant said.

The injured children were among about 40 inside the Christian Academy Child Care east of downtown around 1 p.m. when the accident happened. Police said the SUV's driver was "approximately 80" years old. A utility pole also was struck, Grant said.

The cause of the crash was under investigation. As neighbors milled around watching, crews pulled the smashed SUV from the building several hours after the crash, making visible a pile of rubble inside the day care center. Several child-sized chairs were strewn on the sidewalk outside.

"We are holding all comments until we get some clear facts," said day care director Dena Washington as she waited behind a nearby house for parents ? several of them crying ? to pick up their children.

Curtis Sawyer, whose 1- and 2-year-old children attend the day care, said he rushed to the area after receiving a phone call about the accident.

"It was shocking to me," said Sawyer, 33, as he held the older child in his arms. "I'm just glad my kids are safe, and I'm sorry for the kids that got hurt. My heart and prayers go out to their families."

Sharon Washington said she was feeling "very relieved" as she walked up to the center to visit with staff. Three of her grandchildren ? ages 5, 8 and 1 ? attend the center but were staying with her when the accident happened.

"We were lucky we weren't in the day care," said her 8-year-old grandchild, Timmisha Washington. "They ran over me and my brother's classroom. We lucky. We lucky."

Hi

Ditto; I'm not sure whether I should sit back and laugh, or if I should be generally concerned for my well-being. (Or future well-being that is.) But all I can do is sit back and pray that nothing breaks... or explodes. Yes explosions are cool, but with caution taken. Or used excessively in movies or books, yes that's good.

Gah that's a sin, I hate it when you have to leave a roleplay like that. I had to leave a roleplay site a couple of days ago, because one of the moderators was harassing me and they refused to do anything about it. But I'm still checking in on the roleplay I was in on that site, it was quite enjoyable!

Hm, I can't say that I can beat an Elf at Hogwarts (though I think that's flippin' amazing.) I like themes that are modern but with a twist - like someone from our world gets hauled into another world, or the other way around. Or something like some mortals are tasked by some god who's gifted them with supernatural powers. I also like demons and angels, they're always fun.

Investigative report: Life and death in assisted living

More and more elderly Americans are electing to spend their later years in assisted living facilities, intended for people who cannot live on their own, but who do not need the standard of 24/7 medical care nursing homes provide.

That said, there's really no specific definition of what "assisted living" means, though there's no question this type of care has become a multi-billion-dollar a year business in the U.S. Because there are 50 states, and licensing and regulation of assisted care facilities happen at the state level, oversight and enforcement are inconsistent, often loose. Couple that with a quest for profits and you've got a situation causing nationwide concern as to whether some practices in the industry might be putting senior citizens at risk.

PBS' Frontline, in collaboration with ProPublica, an independent, non-profit news organization that produces public-interest journalism, will on Tuesday night broadcast the results of a major investigation into the operations of Emeritus Senior Living, the largest assisted living company in the U.S.

Together with FRONTLINE, Yahoo! News previews this investigative report here, with an exclusive video excerpt from Tuesday night's show.

You can see FRONTLINE's online report here.

You can see ProPublica's online report here.

In the video above, FRONTLINE and ProPublica discuss the issue of one senior who took a fall at one of Emeritus' facilities and was found face down on the floor. Suffering from dementia, she was taken to the hospital alonge because the facility didn't have enough staff to go with her to the hospital and talk to doctors on her behalf. When she returned, she was put in a bed and her condition began to deteriorate, until she developed pressure ulcers and extensive skin damage. She stayed at Emeritus' Emerald Hills facility for weeks, even though the laws of the state prohibit seniors with such serious wounds to remain in assisted living.

A staff member tried to tend to her wounds, and was told by her boss, "just don't let anybody know." In the course of further investigating this situation, the show's producers discovered Emeritus had what was called a "Keep the Back Door Shut" policy -- meaning: Don't let anybody out unless they're dead.

However, Emeritus' CEO, Granger Cobb, testified under oath that the policy has a different meaning: ...It refers to trying to do everything we can . . . families usually want their loved ones to stay with us as long as possible, as opposed to skilled nursing and varying institutional environments. So we try to work with the families and do all we can to -- to, you know, accommodate that."

Blair Underwood back on TV starring in 'Ironside'

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (AP) ? Blair Underwood is returning to series television in a remake of "Ironside," which shares few similarities with the original series that starred Raymond Burr.

The character's name and job as a detective is the same, and he uses a wheelchair after being paralyzed from the waist down.

In a nod to Burr, Underwood's character ends the day by sipping a glass of bourbon.

"Everything else is re-imagined. All new characters, a new city, new texture, new storytelling, new audience," Underwood told the Television Critics Association on Saturday. "It's a crime drama wrapped in a character study."

The original series, set in San Francisco, ran on NBC from 1967-75. The reboot is based in New York City and filmed in Los Angeles. NBC has ordered 13 episodes of the show that debuts Oct. 2.

Underwood said he got used to the wheelchair by using one at home while learning his lines. The role is especially meaningful to him because his mother, Marilyn, is in a wheelchair as the result of multiple sclerosis.

In preparing for the part, Underwood is working with technical adviser David Bryant, who became a paraplegic after a skiing accident at 19. Bryant's self-sufficiency inspires the new "Ironside" incarnation, with the handles on the character's wheelchair removed just as they are on Bryant's chair.

"It's something I had to delve into and continue to delve into as often as possible," Underwood said. "Our job is to make you believe it and be authentic in that."

Ironside's personal life is noticeably spicier than it was on the old show, too.

"What David told me is every injury is unique, and everybody is different depending on where it affects your spinal cord," Underwood said. "So, yes, in Ironside's case, he is able."

Underwood returns to TV after a stint on Broadway last year. The 48-year-old actor has a long history on NBC, including a breakout role in "L.A. Law."

His co-stars include Spencer Grammer, the oldest daughter of Kelsey Grammer, a star on the NBC hits "Cheers" and "Frasier."
