In Theaters Now: The Twilight Saga: New Moon
A dark and moody film, "The Twilight Saga: New Moon" is based on the second of Stephanie Myer's four novels. This installment is more violent than the first and takes the theme of obsessive love to new heights. Despite all the longing looks, passionate embraces and intense kisses, the film avoids being too explicit and the language remains fairly tame. Rated PG-13, OK for Kids 13+

DVD: My Sister's Keeper
A weepy drama about a terminally ill child and her family's fight to save her life, "My Sister's Keeper" is ultimately a love story. Many scenes are painful to watch and, despite the message of love, it's a heartbreaking story that may upset younger audiences. Rated PG-13, Iffy for Kids 14-15

Jack Laughlin will start middle school every day with gym class.

What might be a nightmare for other middle schoolers is a dream come true for the 11-year-old Exton, Pa., student and his family. Jack has diabetes and as we reported earlier, he and his parents, David and Cathy Laughlin, argued he needed daily gym classes to recover from his post-breakfast sugar high.

Students at Lionville Middle School usually get gym classes two out of every six days. They spend the rest of their mornings in music and reading skills classes.

School officials initially said there was no compelling medical evidence to rearrange the schedule for Jack and he could get the exercise he needs through a school walking club and intramural athletics.

Now officials have changed their minds.

Oh, baby! Those sparkly, high-heel sandals that pint-size Suri Cruise has been sporting recently look so adorable. Especially when combined with ponytails and Elmo.







But on a recent Boston outing with her mom, Katie Holmes, Suri, 3, apparently slipped while walking on a wet sidewalk. Mom, wearing flat boots, was there to keep her from falling.

And, so, the debate continues: Is it appropriate for toddlers to wear heels?

Students at Lionville Middle School in Exton, Pa. have morning gym class two out of every six days. David and Cathy McLaughlin say their diabetic 11-year-old son Jack needs more exercise than that.

School authorities disagree.

Gym classes rotate with music and reading-skills classes. School authorities tell the Philadelphia Inquirer that the McLaughlins have been offered exercise options for Jack that don't cut into those other classes.

Wanna dress your child like the world's trendiest tot?

Suri Cruise, daughter of Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise, hit the Jacadi children's boutique in Boston recently, picking up a striped sweater dress, striped sweater and pleated skirt from the brand's "Sur les Flots" collection, along with dresses in pale pink and red velvet from the the French retailer's new holiday collections.

And speaking of holiday, ParentDish asked Peggy Waldo, director of Jacadi USA, what's hot this season.

"The strongest holiday trends for kids put a fresh, modern spin on authentic and timeless classics," she says. "A short-sleeve dress turns up in gray flannel; a red velvet jumper is accented with oversized buttons and, instead of white, blouses turn up in cheerful Liberty prints."

Prices for Jacadi range from $28 for a white cotton onesie to $278 for a classic duffel coat.

Worried about what your little one's name means in other languages? A London company called Today Translations is charging to decode your baby names.

As an example, the company's chief executive Jurga Zilinskiene points to Tom Cruise/Katie Holmes offspring Suri, according to the New York Daily News. In Greek, the name means "farmer" or "earth worker." But in French, it means "turned sour." And in Farsi? "Red" or "fire." And how about in Italian? That would be "horse mackerels." (We didn't know what that meant, either, so we looked it up and it's a type of fish.)

Today Translations will look up your choice of name in 100 languages, what they call a "name translation audit," according to the News. The cost? 1,000 pounds, or about $1,700. Zilinskiene told the paper that this is not just for celebrities -- "the service will also appeal to ordinary folks who want their child's name to stand out."

A middle-school math teacher is in the hot seat for including an image of a toothless black man on a homework sheet, and at least one parent is calling the illustration racist.

The Courier Times in Bucks County, Pa., reports that the African-American parent of an eighth-grader at Lenape Middle School was so distressed over the image of a black, toothless man on her son's math homework that she kept the boy home from school the following day.

"I couldn't understand what I was looking at," says the woman, whose identity was not revealed by the newspaper. The work sheet, titled "Solving Equations using Multiplication and Division!," featured a photo of a black man in a straw hat and a shirt and suspenders, his mostly toothless mouth agape. Underneath the picture is the grammatically incorrect phrase, "NO WAI!!!"

VERDICT ...
