World Day of Disabled

The world's progress towards entry to all areas of life. But if we look at the corporate sector, it feels as if something is missing. Money, power, greed, etc., is the desire of every person to achieve. But we can not deny that we are all with loads of social problems that are hard nuts to crack limited. The key to success and self-satisfaction that is missing in most companies. Social issues are matters which directly or indirectly, many or all membersa society and as problems to be controversial in terms of moral values, or both. Social issues include poverty, violence, pollution, injustice, illiteracy, corruption, corruption, suppression of human rights, discrimination and crime, child abuse, rape, dowry system, the 'Abortion, sex, etc.

For many social problems, I believe that the rights of exceptional people who are neglected by all. Nobody wants to hear. No body wants to correct them love and care.They are rejected by most companies. Because of the bad behavior of people are after many difficulties, to explore their talents and creativity. Now is the time when you think again about our attitude to need them. Tall calls from government officials, the special needs of people where they were stored by the previous government and the opportunities are still crying for their rights will be given.

I did my research for seven years at the Aga Khan OnlineWelfare Board Committee for exceptional people. I came to this institution and came to know their feelings and emotions. Later I studied many books and met many children of borderline category of different schools in Karachi. The bitter truth was revealed. I realized that they were totally deprived of our society and were considered crazy, this is not true.

I think one has to define the right of every man in his perception, until he / she knows thatdeep and perfect. But it is a matter of despairty in Pakistan that children be considered as another exception. People try to give their definitions of it, without the correct definition of the human person. Humans act like an animal and a lack of concern for them.

We try to understand the extraordinary people?

Those who have the IQ, which are different from the average of two or more standard deviations called ExtraordinaryPeople. Mentally disabled are those who have expressed two or more standard deviations below the mean. While people who score two or more standard deviations above the mean of talented people are called.

Categories in terms of IQ are as follows:

A board or Line 70 above (and understand format)
O 70-50 Mild (educable)
50-35 or moderate (training)
O heavy 35-20 (skills Miniman)
O 20-0 deep (nursing)

Thus we can say,that

"Exceptional children who are missing motor, cognitive, language, social development and emotional skills or self-help."

Imagine sitting in Japan to communicate with Japanese students in Japanese. How do you feel? In that moment you are your own language can be called out as people do not speak or understand. But this is considered by you as a normal reaction because you know you are normal. If this is the case, then how could the mostexplain to the rest of us to judge the spiritual, without their talent and abilities that God has given them.

That disability is everything?

Disability is the inability of normal activities in a way it is. "

"A disability is the expression of a physical or mental limitation in a social context, the gap between the capabilities of a person and a more environmentally friendly."

(Pope and Tarlov, 1991)

A personDisabled means that because of injury, illness or congenital malformations, in companies of any occupation or employment and the employment of disabled includes persons who are both blind as well. In short, those extraordinary people who either lack one of the areas of development.

Disability refers to the effects of alteration or activities generally accepted as the benefits, as the basic elements of everyday life. Disability can be used when amight be affected, objectively defined, represents a barrier to mobility or domestic routines and communication skills. "

After the social model

"It is the result of the interaction of humans and the environment and is not specific to humans or the environment disabilities.

Note that the physically handicapped, blind, deaf, autism, language disorders, learning disabilities, mild, medium, hard, deep,Borderline, etc., are some of the most important categories of exceptional people from many others. People with special educational needs are often invisible, unheard and countless people in Pakistan. Are the most marginalized. People with disabilities face overwhelming barriers in education, training and daily life.

The United Nations estimates that about 600 million people worldwide have a disability and that the vast majority of the extraordinary people living in low and middleIncome. The percentage of extraordinary people in Pakistan to 1998 Census 2.49 percent of the total population that is very different from the estimates of the World Bank, the UN and the WHO.

These children have the same right to freedom of expression, quality education and access to safe and healthy environment in accordance with the Constitution of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, 1973, for full rights and duties as citizens, have confirmed in the Declaration UN human rightsRights, 1948, "Education for All (1990), UN Standard Rules on the Equalization of Opportunities for Persons with Special Needs (1993), Salamanca Statement and Framework for Action (1994), Dakar Framework for Action (2000), UN Millennium Development Goals (2001) and the national policy for persons with disabilities (2002) to guarantee the rights of all children, with and without disabilities, the quality of training that individuals receive their needs, abilities and ambitions, and full equalityParticipation in all other aspects of life such as participation in decisions and voting, etc.

But this proved false accusations when disabled people have raised their voices in the media, how brutal they are treated as a company in Pakistan.

For example, to obtain a quality education is right for each round, but again, no schools, colleges and universities have been installed by the government to their needs. Thanks to private NGOs that there was aInitiative and has established some schools for pupils with special educational needs.

The issue of uniqueness becomes increasingly important worldwide and in Pakistan. started the movement for a company the rights to many national organizations, the World Bank and other donors to this question included in their mandates. Rich governments policies including the processes of granting travel booking facilities, special training facilities, etc. But it framedThe question is whether these mandates have been made, if it is implemented, and those who implement it? No concessions will be released off of assets in any of Pakistan so far there is a school where they could learn skills without cost. NGOs have institutions that need a lot of money from parents to support their children.

The country has ratified several international conventions, national policy was promulgated in 2002, initiated the revision of the Regulation onWork to increase the employment rate to two per cent would be to develop job opportunities and initiatives to ensure "inclusive education". But so far, no action taken by any government.

A framework for inclusive education and training in Pakistan in 1980, well beyond established that most of the countries in the developing world. But despite these efforts, the sad fact that most people are completely disabled and their familiesUN-served by the government - and the resources of NGOs. There is an urgent and thorough research data on the causes, prevention of disease and efforts to understand the disability and economic and social realities in relation to the possibilities.

The biggest obstacle to employment and other socio-economic benefits for people with special in our society continue to be attitudinal barriers, stereotypical thinking and assumptions about what people with disabilities and can not.The truth is that the range of ability within a panel is huge. We need to get rid of our stereotypical images and view each "individual" not just a person. "

Only limited categories of disabilities (physical disabilities such as amputation of the foot and leg deformities, blind and deaf), were not detected at the national level and most of the data by gender. Therefore, quantitative data disaggregated at national level bySex and age is required for a comprehensive policy and an assessment of progress. In Pakistan there is only the ministry responsible for social education and special person that touches the outstanding issues. In addition, the Pakistanis believe that people with special needs a social burden and a curse on the family. These beliefs lead to misunderstanding of disability. You prevent people from obtaining accurate information and educated. EmploymentOpportunities for them are very limited and are a financial burden for their families.

While there are extraordinary people with some common problems that you are limited in their daily lives.

Some of the problems of exceptional people

or hyperactivity;
distractibility O;
or impulsivity;
Or the fear of withdrawal;
or anxiety and phobias;
or eating disorders;
O Echholahia;
or movement problems;
or depression;
O SuicidalBehavior;
or difficult temperament;
Or Conduct Disorder;
or aggression;
or obsessions and compulsions;
O reluctant speech;
or eliminate the interference;
Suicidal stimuli or apathy;
or injury, etc.

People with disabilities face a multitude of social, economic, physical and political factors that impeded the free movement in society. These barriers are a misunderstanding and stigmatization of the abilities and desires of people withDisabilities. There is also a serious lack of information data, rules and regulations, rehabilitation centers, and main streaming services specialized for people with special educational needs.

The main problem of the community to which I contributed my efforts is "The rights of special people." I worked as a teacher / tutor / coach for seven years of extraordinary people. Since my childhood I had the intention of social work for extraordinary people, because I had a natural linkto resolve them.

I have dealt with all types of students of the class profound, severe, moderate and mild. But I have worked mainly with "borderline" students who want their rights, which are facing the big problem in every society and every community that wants to explore their creativity by others, he expects that the love of others and that others accept it as a normal existence.

I believe that every individual can make a difference. I thank God for this beautifulStudents trusted me, gave me the tape of the report and welcomed me with all my heart in my first year of voluntary service. They shared all their problems with me and I thank God that I have accepted the special allowance for them. I have her voice trembled in their statement, they want to hear their expectations. But still, they listened in every society, they take care of them and love them. While working for their rights, I had many difficulties in ourSociety.

I can not do everything alone, but at least I have a little change in their lives, which brought a great reward for me. The problems to be solved completely, only possible if the company join hands.

Postponing the disabled and elderly riders

How long you live is not as important as the quality of your life while you're alive. Most Americans over 70 can not run or walk fast. Most Americans over 70 can not lift a weight 25 pounds over his head. Most Americans over 70 can not take common household chores, the force, as the setting of a locked door, removing leaves and snow from their driveways or lift heavy objects.

Regular riders can do all these tasks and about 70 more. A study by StanfordUniversities in the Archives of Internal Medicine shows that older people are running and other aerobic activities less than people who run not want to die. Non-runners were more than three times more likely to die as a runner, but the news is not exciting. The most important finding is that older men and women who exercise regularly can not sport much less likely to suffer from any form of disability than people.

The researchers studied 370 members of aRunning Club for people aged 50 years and older, and 249 community members who do not belong to the club running. They were 50-72 years at baseline of 13 years. The runners had much lower rates of death, which was expected, and less disability, such as arthritis, which is awesome.

A 13-year follow-up, and the average age of the club race was 70.9 years and the average age of 73.6 years was tested for the community. The running clubMembers had health problems significantly fewer than non-club members, not the runners were in poor health, for comparison, which seemed to live in another municipality. Furthermore, the rate of progression to different levels of disability was slower in the members of the club racer as much as the control group. The authors concluded that "life, disability, a rate hike may be healthy, in a move until a few years before the death of one, if it develops."

Lesions of the rotator cuff - A Complete Guide

Rotator cuff injuries are very frequent. Shoulder pain affects about one in five. How significant is the fact that the symptoms of rotator cuff are by far the most common cause of shoulder pain. So if you are a cuff injury, you are definitely not alone.

There are a number of different causes of wrist injury or illness. This is a guide to common injuries and their cause.

Trauma

Severe trauma to the cuff. Every significant event, A long-term effect. For example, a car accident or collision sports a great influence causing serious injury.

This will almost certainly be strongly influenced not only the collar, but the shoulder as a whole. Lesions of the rotator cuff are of this type, in most cases, require surgery to repair the rotator cuff.

Trauma of this kind is the most common cause of wrist problems in younger people (under 40).

Fortunately, there are still relatively rareEvents.

Tendinitis of the rotator cuff

The most common form of shoulder pain is, without doubt, tendonitis. Tendinitis is irritation and inflammation of the tendons of the cuff. Overuse tendinitis of the shoulder can be placed. For example, it can happen, as in tennis, participating in things like sports or throw.

In non-athletes may be a history of recent heavy lifting or activities that involve repetitive movements of the shoulder.

It isanother, more complicated form known as calcifying tendinitis. This happens when, because of years of inflammation, calcium deposits in tendons. They should have "calcified." This can be especially painful!

Rupture of the tendon of the rotator cuff

Cuff tears are more common in people aged 40 years. Not only that, but the incidence increases with age. A person of 80 is a significantly increased risk of developing such a tearPerson of 40 years.

A torn tendon can take two forms, either a full or partial tear. The classification is purely based on the amount of damages. A tear is a tear that extends properly through the tendon. A "full thickness" is full or when to bring down the entire width of the tendon is torn. This is best seen by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

cuff tendon tears can have two different outbreaks, acute and chronic.

Sharp is a unique and identifiable as a documentTrauma.

Chronic develops gradually over time due to a general weakening. This could be caused by conditions such as tendonitis or impingement.

Impact

Shock is the name of a state where cuff tendon is pinched or compressed in the subacromial space. Generally affects the supraspinatus tendon.

The tendon is repeatedly scraped against the scapula and this can lead to a fraying of the tendon. This means that weakens the tendon and is moreprobability of failure. Impingement is a very common cause of other rotator cuff injuries.

impingement syndrome is often the result of a weakness of the muscles of the rotator cuff. This leads to a lack of stability of the shoulder, which in turn allows the humerus to ride, and fill the space on the tendon. It can also occur because of problems with the bone of the acromion, arthritis, bone spurs and problems with bursitis in the shoulder joint.

The selection of educational games for children with intellectual disabilities

Some children have difficulty with learning problems or wrong address new information. You might struggle to master skills like throwing and catching a ball. You could try to grow confused to speak and listen to communicate with other people. Without the ability to learn and retain important information about how these children struggle even more when they come to school and try to master reading, writing and other skills and content knowledge.

Scientists are not sureWhat are the causes of learning difficulties. Many suspect that the brains of children with intellectual disabilities mix signals and have difficulty sending and receiving bits of information. Basically, as University of Nevada-Reno professors Gary Fisher and Rhoda Cummings in the Survival Guide for kids with LD explained, "just some guys have a hard time to learn."
These children are not stupid or lazy at all. They "learn differently" simply (LD). Gary Fisher and Rhoda Cummings appropriateReplace the term "disability" in his book, useful for the problem is not with the stigma. Children with LD have normal or even above average intelligence can distinguish, and indeed in other sectors. Their brains only collect, process and store information in a different way. As Stanley S. Lamm, MD, and Martin L. Fish, Ph.D. put it explains a learning disability, a child with learning difficulties, only "a state or a specific set of conditions that interfere with thenormal learning process. "

Children who learn differently can come from any ethnic group or socio-economic status. Although only 5% of children had been formally diagnosed with LD, some doctors and educators believe that having up to 20 percent of children a kind of interference in their way of learning in some areas. The good news is that it can significantly improve the correct diagnosis and targeted interventions, children with LD their ability to learn in a weak field.

It 'very importantidentify, especially for parents and children with LD learn differently and the means and resources available to them, so they should learn. Once the AP has been identified, a team of professionals in the child and use their results to an individualized education plan (IEP) for him or for their development. Now the child and his teachers and parents know the area where the child needs extra help and can focus on developing and improving the learning capabilities of the child there.Special classes and one-on-one tutoring can help.

Thus, using educational toys designed to develop specific skills. Children who are increasingly bored with school work can dry excitement in learning when the learning comes in the form of a toy to see it again. Simplify the process of learning and the use of unconventional methods to make learning fun for kids with LD can motivate an incentive to new heights.

Gary Fisher and Rhoda Cummings has identified seven key areas where children couldlearn differently: talking and listening, reading, writing, math, organizational skills, social skills and motor skills. Here are some suggestions for toys, the learning of each of these areas will be developed ...
Talking and listening LD

Children with LD to speak and listen to know what to say or do, but they are fighting only to share their thoughts. You may also have difficulty understanding the meaning of saying what other people have them, sometimes an errorConcern for others. Some good skills in this area are to promote critical thinking and the ability to make predictions, understand cause and effect and draw conclusions. These skills can help children organize their thoughts and words to make them more coherent and better understand what others say about them.
Strategy Games and Logic Games as Clik FoxMind Zoologica 'or promote the development of logical thinking skills such games. When playing these games, parentsEncourage children to think aloud, to make their argument. Parents can also politely ask the children to ask what they think happens in a situation next to each answer, and recognize it as a basis for the next question.

Read AP
Children with reading LD may be overwhelmed by exposure to too much text at once. You may struggle to read the alphabet or words to explore. You can skip lines while reading, because they appear the wordsnavigate to the page.
Educational toys like cards by Melissa and Doug puzzle opposite or vision to break down the reading and the magic to its essential components. Read Travel and Spin Word Spin Deluxe Family Edition made by Geospace are also excellent ways of spelling and reading for an experience. The concentration on a single word / concept at a time and break down words in letters from children continues to be confused by a wall of text. When using these products to encourage childrentalk about what they read, to check understanding.

Leave LD
Children with LD struggle with writing many of the same problems as children with speech and hearing LD. They have great ideas in my head, but difficult to express in writing with correct spelling and good grammar and spelling. This is a case where the simplest of games can have the greatest impact. Take some 'pressure for depreciation from the children compose their thoughts on a funPanel or dry-erase board. Now kids can remove and / or start their sentences over and over again until everything right.

Math LD
Children with LD struggle with math what the numbers mean and numerical symbols. You have difficulty in memorizing math facts and understanding. At the lowest level, they struggle with mathematical concepts underlying the designs. The game can be the model of games, puzzles, blocks and shape the experience of a child and trust modelsnecessary, are to succeed in mathematics. For example, a toy like games FoxMind 'Logix I give a child practice with shapes and patterns of logic. Once again, the Geospace Travel Math Spin by a fun learning tool for basic operations, removing what is sometimes a terrible feeling of having a child to learn math by himself. Remember, the participation of adults in a family environment with educational games is important to the learning process.

Organization Talent LD
Children with organizational skillsLD have trouble getting an overview of materials and tasks. Also keep in their rooms or tables may be difficult in order. Puzzles and other toys with parts that can go only one way to teach children what may be the subtle habits of the organization. An organizer of Melissa and Doug Magnetic Responsibility Chart can get good habits by children, keep in mind their responsibilities and rewards to encourage good habits and behaviors.

Social skills LD
Children with socialAbility LD have difficulty interacting with other people. You've read the facial expressions and gestures and suggestions can make facial expressions and gestures that convey what they really feel. dramatic role play, children can take appropriate standards of social behavior in a safe environment, away from the stress of the consequences is real. Dolls and doll houses, play sets and figures, and dress-up clothes and props, all vehicles used for imaginative play that effective social practicesInteraction.

Dexterity toys LD
Children with LD struggle with motor skills toys both motor skills like balancing, jumping or running, and motor skills such as lace string through hole or a pin to keep right. Toys like skipping ropes, sports equipment, and machine plasma can develop motor skills. Toys such as lacing cards or sets the art such as Melissa and Doug Stamp Set-set and pearls can develop their motor skills. Some toys like building blocks,develop a series of motor skills.

All parents, Toys Take advantage of investment in education
Educational toys can be a valuable resource for children with and without LD. Children can when filling out worksheets or assignments to dry to teach content knowledge to grow bored. In particular, children with LD only hard to understand how to fill out a worksheet. The game with an educational game, on the other hand, can encourage children to spend more (and moreFun!) Time to practice and master new knowledge and skills. Instead of storing information of a child dry mathematics can play an educational game and learn first-hand how to use logic and models to solve a problem. In fact, all parents want their children to develop skills in the areas listed above from an investment in one of the toys will benefit discussed.

Deafness is a disability

At the beginning of this article, I must say that I am a hearing person. I do not have titles in the deaf culture. I feel compelled to write this article in response to a Funeral, which I visited recently. I took part in the false assumptions of many other people are listening to the funeral embarrassed. The purpose of this paper is to broaden the cultural understanding of deafness.

Many people are born deaf. Other deaf people in a very young age, measles, meningitis or otherDiseases. They grow up with their own language, customs, culture and pride. These are the people in this article refers, not those who lose their hearing some time after birth.

I am privileged to have friendships with a number of deaf people. I talk to them about Auslan (Australian Sign Language). I learned that there are big differences between hearing and deaf communities and cultures. I know that many people are listening to a lack of understanding of deafness. My goal isunderstanding.

The funeral was for a deaf friend of mine. I call Kurnai. E 'born deaf and proud to be deaf. He was known and respected in both the deaf and hearing communities. Both deaf and hearing people participated in his speech. A sign language interpreter was present. He interprets the hearing impaired. This was done to translate the visual sign language in spoken English. She also interpreted for the deaf people. He did it through the translation of speechLanguage Auslan.

Kurnai is deaf friends spoke of his love for the sport. They praised his football skills. They spoke of former times, when they played tricks in the school. They spoke of his smile and his love for entertaining. None of them said that he was deaf. Hearing people also spoke of some of the personal characteristics of the Kurnai. However, we have focused so much on the "terrible disability he had. They talked of how well he did, despite itsDisabilities. They were talking about how sad it was that she could not speak. If the truth was that he could not speak. His language, Auslan, is a rich expressive language.

A loving family member was surprised that Kurnai danced with her deaf friend. He had no idea that deaf people can music "feel" through the vibrations in the ground. Another thanked that he now had another life that "talk" would be able to give. Another joked that Kurnai had told him that he was satisfied that he was deaf. CropHearing community laughed in disbelief. The crop deaf smiled and nodded.

Kurnai had an incurable disease. He spent much time in consultation with the medical profession. Their disability was that he did not know his language. In their arrogance, did not deem it necessary, an interpreter at all appointments. Everyone has the right to know what is being said. Even if it's just a simple date. "My temperature, blood pressurenormal ".. It is certainly the right of patients to be able to ask these questions, the doctors would have asked about the possibility that the benefit to the patient:" How do you feel? Do you have pain? "Without an interpreter, these simple questions, no precise answer can be given. Go to the people listening to many deaf people who can understand written English and lip read. In fact, lip-reading, a skill very difficult. Those who understand and master more than 30% mayConversation. Written English uses Auslan grammar and syntax is very different. Therefore, it is very easy to interpret for deaf people misunderstanding what was written. Often smile or a wave of response. Otherwise, take a 50/50 bet to answer is "yes" or "no".

If you try to communicate with a deaf person to follow their example. In general, the gestures and facial expressions is more effective than written communication. Surely he would never try to communicate with someone whose languageEnglish with the help of written English? The same is true when communicating with deaf people. His mother tongue is not English.

Kurnai was a dear friend. The observations, that his hearing would have made friends at his funeral did not matter. As a deaf person, he had smiled and accepted the fact that no harm was intended. This is another example of the differences in our cultures. While listening to the stories of his life, I was excited by the misunderstanding. I was embarrassed bymade 'politically incorrect' statements and the hearing people. I was excited and felt the need to defend the Kurnai claim that "deafness is not a handicap.

Disability and quality of life; Book Review "Thank You"

I'm sure I said, but if not I'll say it here. I firmly believe that your attitude is a very important component of quality of life and your ability - in balance - in fact to manage the chronic illness!

And with that in mind, my advice is to develop a hobby. In your hobby, be sure to share with others, especially the "leaders" in your hobby, your thanks for their efforts. For example, you might decide that you want to be a greatMartha Stewart cooking and use as a template. Once you get something Dook using one of their recipes and rave reviews from your "being," write Martha thank you e-mail or letter! It makes you feel is much better.

For me, I like to read. And when I finished a book I really love, go to your site and let him know, and I thank them. Most, even write back! I also signed a "coaster" of one, and become a "reader reviewer" is one of myFavorite author of the forthcoming book, while in the project.

I have to thank the e-mail I just a writer, so you see what you look like copies. Hope you find a hobby and to thank those who inspire you.

Dear Mr. Katzenbach:

Not sure why I just found, but I am soooo glad I am! The Madman's Tale is the third book of yours that I read, and only them. (With State Of Mind, followed by The Analyst introduction). Yesterday, State of Mind, like thetechnical structure of the analyst, but thought it would be too sad - he was soooo isolated - but really loved The Madman's Tale!

I am a voracious reader (I did "manage" multiple sclerosis for over 45 years, and now I find myself on a full-term disability), especially the books of intrigue. However, I find that more and more novels that have to keep me invested in the book. If the story is too predictable, not simply "Hook Me."

You, sir, you have a magnificent championshipPhraseology, your lyrical prose paints pictures so well that I was in hospital with Lucy, Peter and Francis! I won and you will read later, Hart's War "- a book and the movie. I want to see my mental movie through your words!

He could not help but to document and share with you back to some of my favorite quotes from the story of the madman. These specific rates were so eloquent, it is more accurately represented the rights of subscription or feeling, or, in the case ofFrancis, defined as clear, in my humble opinion (IMHO) and in particular what it means "human" that I could not help but tell you how much your words hit me! His prose I have read every word, and not just skimming to catch the thread of the story and ran "Who did it!"

Many authors are able to describe events, actions, places and things, and some may take the surface quality of the characters. What I find unique, Mr. K., the ability to captureEssence of each "ghestalt" character; raison d'etre (sp?); Unique personality, and like any two cocks in common humanity, but is clearly out of it.

1) p. 168. "When I think back, I can so many little things that mean something .... I was young, was to see, and I did not understand that the crime as all the mechanical parts of a transmission bolts and nuts, screws and pins, all efforts together a dynamic that moves us close control, createby forces that are a bit 'like the wind is invisible, but leaves the characters in a piece of scrap paper that suddenly takes flight and the lines on the sidewalk or a road is dragged to perform a certain way, then the next, or simply remote storm clouds over a dark threatening sky hunting. "

2) p. 200: "We are all defined by the darkness, I thought, anyone can represent something in the summer, but only at night, after the world had closed in, that our true self to come out ..."

3) PGS 218& 219: "At some point later that day, or perhaps after the next, but certainly crazy at some point during the constant procession of people in Lucy Jones accompanied the office, it occurred to me that I never really part of something .... first. As a child, not able to participate is a terrible thing. Perhaps the worst ..... In all the years I have never been invited to a birthday party ever. asked for a night . Not once pushed to the back of a station wagon for an off-the-cuff TravelFriendly in for a sundae. I've never had a phone call the night of gossip about the school or sports or who were normal after the vote seventh dance kiss ..... My life was unique in that it highlights the absence of all the little things that everyone else. "
4), p. 269: "But that was not the real ground of each unit, the contours and topography were really defined by all the diversity of content crazy .." (Note: This really resonates with me as Iwas a director of human resources for over 30 years before I continue disabilities. Every time I walked into a room, I purposely took "stock" of the room temperature, swirling currents and eddies, which was far from the bounce, etc. not I've never seen articulated just as you did!)

5) Page 326: IMHO, this is the vision that a person like Francis, may be the "crazy", but it's still human, separated by a sociopath! I loved how you put it! "My whole life,I just wanted to be normal. Tortured, as Peter and Lucy, were normal. It can run low in the outside world, enjoying the simple things ..... But I could because I knew right then that I have always condemned to be closer in spirit and actions of men are and I hated the man who scared me. The angel was giving and indulging in murderous thoughts all the evil that lay dormant in me. It was a fun house mirror version of me. I had the same anger. L 'same desire. The same evil. I had just hidden in it, has discarded lies in the deepest hole in me that I could find and cover with a crazy thought, like rocks and dirt, so that was buried, where I hoped it would never burst. "

In these few words, has clearly articulated the essence of "free will". And, IMHO, because God has given man free will. He wants us to reduce, control of the forces of evil, and do what is "correct" choice, not. Coersion

Were you able to paint the essence of being "acceptable", which made the reputation of being human, with "rights." And finally, this is what all people to live their lives, are only recognized as existing.

Well, I have taken too much of your time. If you want to use my words as a review of your book anywhere, do not hesitate to do so.

Also, if you ever need a reader to read a piece of your new book (s), I'd like to doSun

Thanks, again looking for hours! I'll probably write again after finishing Hart's War!

Autism - Why My Autistic Son Is More Intelligent Than I Am

One of the biggest problems for people with disabilities, particularly those with learning disabilities such as autism is the limited opportunity for social inclusion. People do not always appreciate how powerful they are and despite autism I always knew my son was very intelligent. Last night showed that.

I decided that it should be the age of eighteen years my son to do "out there", things that his colleagues might well last night I had with the local BadmintonClub

I was a bit 'anxious, because there are clubs and there are "club" - you know, that if members are cliquey places seriously competitive and never seem to have fun, provided you do not win.

My son does not understand the competition. Neither he understands the rules of badminton, a goal that is, how to stand on which side of the field or when. He knows exactly where it is a flying side of the net, usually more on the right side, hisOpponents faces and turn the flywheel to beat each other.

This usually does not require a lot of movement - has at least in his name, because it's very good eye / hand coordination, and long arms, it was so last night a whole new experience for him.

It 'started well enough. The club was more of a social enterprise, and everyone seemed very friendly and welcoming. I told whoever would listen about his autism, and that he does not really talk. I do not haveI want them to think that was rude when he ignored their attempts at conversation.

There were five dishes, four players in each game and a few others in the wings ready when the opportunity arises. We knocked on the court almost immediately and our first partner, a male and a female just us. This was in order because, in addition to four players instead of two, Jodi was the one that was used.

The second "Match" was a bit 'more lively. Another male and femalePartner with us but this is obviously a bit 'more serious and wanted a real game was to play.

I explained to Jodi partner as he hit the fly, did not understand the rules or the idea was to win. Since I do not feel I had no chance on the winning side I asked if he would like me to play with my son.

He assured me it was okay and we would just play and see how it turned out.
It 'a good start but then I'm really confused because JodiIt should be remembered when they use or exchange. This, of course, your partner must also exchange.

The first few acts were good, although to be taken in the face with an acceleration of spring ball, but soon lost it. As soon as he approached the spot where his companion told him to stay, as he had to move again. When he tried to sweetness, which needed to be detailed, he beat her and beat her on the arm.

He's a great guy and very strong. I feltmortified. I rushed around the net to him apologising profusely to his partner as I went just in time to stop him from tipping the whole net over.

He was not impressed and I had visions of us being banished before we'd ever really got started. However, he soon calmed down and stroked his partner's arm saying "Sorry".

She was just wonderful and despite the huge red handprint on her arm kept reassuring me it was alright. It appears she worked in the "community", whatever that means. I just know I was extremely grateful for her understanding.

After that we played three more matches but no-one asked or expected Jodi to swap sides so I guess word must have got round.

I did suggest to him at one stage that he should "move his feet" and he responded immediately with a shoe shuffle the like of which the penguin in Happy Feet would have been proud. It wasn't quite what I'd had in mind though.

Still, everyone was very impressed with Jodi and whilst he didn't physically move around the court very much, he rarely ever missed a shot. He didn't even appear to be watching the game either. He'd just raise his racquet and swing.

Often he casually had one hand on his hip as if to say "Why am I waiting?" or his finger in his right ear to shut out the noise echoing around the high ceiling sports hall, which did make things a bit awkward since he is right handed. Still it didn't appear to affect his ability to connect to the flying plastic Rocket.

A player who hit me some earplugs for him to wear to avoid the noise and I can only do so if we knew the next week. Yes, we called to get rid of!

So now I suppose you want to know why I think my son was very smart last night, right? Well, this morning I can hardly move. Everything around and share what the pages that have great and my body hurts in places I did not even know I had taken muscles.

Jodi is as fresh as a daisy - Guess Whothe smart one?
