Editors Note: I had some extra energy tonight so I included a screencast to go along with Jordan’s groovyPost.

  Type Win+I which will bring up the settings Charms Settings. Click Power and choose between Sleep, Shut down or Restart.

Just as a reminder you can access this Charm panel from anywhere, while browsing the Internet, using a Windows 8 app, or pretty much anywhere else. If you have a mouse, you can also move the mouse to the bottom-left corner of the screen to open the Start Charm.

Click Settings.

And again, click the Power button to get the shutdown/restart options.
