Today, the United States Supreme Court has rejected a California law banning the sale or rental of violent video games to children. In 2005, Arnold Schwarzenegger, who was the governor at the time, signed the law which prohibited those in California under 18 from buying or renting games that depict acts such as the "needless mutilation of the victim's body."
I can only imagine how hard it is to be a parent of a child with diabetes. Not only do you
have to worry about their health constantly, but you also have to deal with the stigma some kids feel while having to interrupt their school day and activities for blood sugar testing.

Krista Swanson remembers a few things about high school: falling flat on her face during a recreational volleyball game, learning to type on an electric typewriter, and being told that a woman could never make it in technology.
Fast forward a few years, and you may have seen her around town balancing a BlackBerry in one hand and an iPad in the other. Although she's no longer playing volleyball (she switched to running), she has learned how to program computer software, and become a kick-ass IT project manager. She's married to another techie who understands her addiction to Twitter a proud Mom to a geekling who can use an iPad with his eyes closed.
So whether it's an educational app recommendation to keep the kids busy on a rainy day, a review of the latest parenting gadget, or confirmation that your partner isn't crazy for wanting to buy that 110 inch projector screen for the basement, you'll find it all here.
