"Keyboard Town Pals taught my 9 year old daughter to keyboard in just one hour (really!). Best of all, my 75 year old father did it too. We followed the program as directed and did lesson one on day one and lesson two on day two. We did it again the following day and the rest is history; she has never looked back. My father is now a believer and devotee of the Keyboard Town Pals method. The story is easy to understand, easy to follow, and the methodical nature of the program allowed it to be memorized and immediately put to use. This keyboarding program is a winner!"

This morning, 30 4th graders at Lockwood Avenue Elementary learned to type with Keyboard Town PALS. The presentation (a puppet show given By creators Rita Herman and Donna Katz) was a lot of fun and highly educational. A special episode of the nationally syndicated Kurt The Cyber Guy was filmed for the event.

Special thanks to the kids and staff of Lockwood. You are all amazing. Thank you so much Kurt and crew for working with me to put this together.

Stay tuned for airing dates, times and channels!

Unity Walk 2009

2ND ANNUAL “UNITY WALK” TO TAKE PLACE SUNDAY, JUNE 14TH AT 3:00 PM

LOS ANGELES CITY OFFICIALS AND LOCAL RESIDENTS UNITE TO SPEAK OUT AGAINST CRIME

The 2nd Annual Community “Unity Walk” will take place on Sunday June 14th, 2009 from 3:00 – 5:00 pm. Los Angeles city officials and local residents will join hand in hand to encourage peace and support neighborhood efforts to stand against all criminal activity in the La Cienega Heights and South Robertson neighborhoods.

City officials expected to attend include Los Angeles City Attorney Carmen (“Nuch") Trutanich, Council District 5 members Paul Koretz and Jack Weiss, Captains Evangelyn Nathan and Ruben De La Torre of the West Los Angeles Community Police Station, and Captain Kelly Toman of the Los Angeles Fire Department Station 58.

Los Angeles Police Chief William Bratton strongly supports the Unity Walk. “Community-police partnerships are the cornerstones of public safety.” said Chief Bratton. “Throughout the City these alliances are essential in reducing the fear and incidence of crime. The Unity March is a symbolic celebration of law enforcement and the communities’ unwavering solidarity, support and commitment to remain vigilant partners in combating and reducing crime throughout our City.”

Spearheaded by community activist, Baila Romm, last year’s Unity Walk was extremely effective in attracting local residents wanting to live in a secure neighborhood, but had never spoken out due to fear of retaliation.

“The purpose of this walk is to show support for our neighbors and city officials.” says Romm. “We need to bring positive attention to the area. We call on all of our residents to come out and demand a safer neighborhood.”

The Unity Walk will begin at the Warehouse Shoe parking lot 2045 S. La Cienega Blvd at the corner of Cadillac and S. La Cienega Blvd. For more information, contact info.neighborhoodwatch@gmail.com.

This event is supported by: The Los Angeles City Mayor’s Office: Antonio Villaraigosa, Office of the City Attorney, Council District 5: Council members Jack Weiss and Paul Koretz (CD 5), Council District 10: Councilman Herb Wesson (CD 10), West Los Angeles Community Police Station: Captain Evangelyn Nathan (WLAPD), Los Angeles Fire Department: Battalion 18, Chief Ronald Leydecker and Fire Station 58 Captain Kelly Toman (LAFD), Community Police Advisory Board (C-PAB), Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) Captain Stacy Gerlich, South Robertson Neighborhood Council (SORO), Westside Neighborhood Council (WNC), Police and Community Together (PACT).

STATEMENT FROM CHABAD-LUBAVITCH WORLD HEADQUARTERS

Wednesday, June 03, 2009 (lubavitch.com): Regarding recent comments made by Rabbi Manis Friedman in response to a question posed by Moment Magazine, we vehemently disagree with any sentiment suggesting that Judaism allows for the wanton destruction of civilian life, even when at war.

In keeping with Jewish law, it is the unequivocal position of Chabad-Lubavitch that all human life is G-d given, precious, and must be treated with respect, dignity and compassion.

Statements and opinions expressed by individuals do not necessarily reflect the position of the Chabad-Lubavitch movement. Lubavitch World Headquarters is the only office authorized to speak on behalf of the movement.

Please contact Daniel Ferszt at daniel@lubavitch.com or at (310) 424-8290 with any questions or comments.

EXCLUSIVE PRE SCHOOL OPENS ITS DOORS IN THE PACIFIC PALISADES

LITTLE MACCABEES OFFERS A COMPLETE EARLY CHILDHOOD EXPERIENCE
IN AN INTIMATE SETTING

For immediate release, Monday, June 01, 2009: Limited enrollment has begun for the Little Macabees preschool, which will open its doors in September for the very first time. A new project of the Palisades Jewish Early Childhood Center (PJECC), Little Macabees offers a warm environment where children can develop socially, emotionally, intellectually, and physically in an exclusive Jewish setting.

Little Macabees was originally conceived as a temporary facility that would remain open in the interim while permanent facilities were secured for the PJECC. However, the concept of an additional smaller preschool began to prove necessary to Chabad’s growing family base.

“There are simply more Jewish families moving to the Palisades these days,” says Rabbi Zushe Cunin, Director of the Chabad Jewish Community Center. “We want to provide parents with as many options for their children as possible. We have discovered that the Little Macabees preschool will serve a need for children who require a smaller environment in which they can learn.”

Ms. Barbara Leibovic, PJECC Director, is equally as excited. “When Rabbi Cunin and I presented the idea of a smaller, temporary preschool to the staff and parents, the feedback was surprising. We heard, ‘Why temporary? My child does better in a smaller setting.’ and ‘This would be would be ideal for the Mommy and Me program!’ Everyone is excited and ready to help provide an incredible unique early childhood learning experience.”

“We have our best teachers on board for next year.” explains Ms. Leibovic. “We also have a wonderful and developmentally appropriate curriculum planned for the children.”

Once the PJECC moves into its permanent facility, it will be able to accommodate over 70 children. Alternatively, Little Macabees will cater to 28 children (14 per session) in its charming and intimate home based facility.
