DryBath is a germ-killing gel that allows you to take a bath without using a single drop of water or soap -- all you need is to apply the gel on your skin and then vigorously rub it off using your hands.

(CNN) -- It was just after 5 a.m. on a cold November morning in 2011 when Kenneth Chamberlain Sr., a 68-year-old former Marine with a severe heart condition, accidentally set off a medical alert pendant. An ambulance was dispatched to Chamberlain's White Plains, New York, apartment, though police who respond to such calls as a matter of routine arrived ahead of the emergency medical workers. Within the hour, Chamberlain, who is black, lay dying -- from two rounds fired into his upper body by a white police officer. What led to the shooting of Chamberlain is the subject of a grand jury hearing underway this month, and a matter of heated debate between the White Plains Police Department and Chamberlain's family and friends. @highlight The case is drawing parallels to the shooting of Trayvon Martin @highlight Kenneth Chamberlain accidentally set off a medical alert device, his family says @highlight Police say they shot Chamberlain after he came at them with a knife @highlight The family says video and audio recordings prove he was unarmed

Farmers in the area have 45 days to appeal Israel's decision to claim the land. "The seizure of such a large swathe of land risks paving the way for further settlement activity, which -- as the United Nations has reiterated on many occasions -- is illegal under international law and runs totally counter to the pursuit of a two-state solution," United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said in a statement Monday. @highlight PLO says "land grab" destroys prospect for peace @highlight Britain has urged Israel to reverse moves to claim land in the Palestinian West Bank @highlight Israel announced Sunday almost 1,000 acres would become "state land" @highlight Officials told CNN the decision was linked to the abduction and murder of 3 Israeli teens
