Towards an international framework for communication disorders: Use of the ICF
ABSTRACT There has been an interest in the World Health Organization's framework of functioning and disability by those in communication disorders since the original 1980 International Classification of Impairments, Disabilities, and Handicaps (ICIDH). In 2001, WHO published the substantially revised International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF). This framework is gaining in acceptance as a system that would be beneficial for the field and for our clients. This article describes the basics of the ICF and how it differs from the ICIDH; the possible applications of the ICF to communication disorders; some of the work done with the ICF in communication disorders internationally; and the benefits to the field from increased interdisciplinary and international collaboration using the ICF as a common framework. LEARNING OUTCOMES: As a result of this activity the reader will be able to: (1) describe the basics of the ICF, (2) describe the applications of the ICF to communication disorders, and (3) describe the possible impact upon the field internationally.
- "In ICF, the elements inherent in AT assessment and selection including body structure and function, activity and participation, and environmental and personal factors. The ICF provides a common reference framework for better communication between the clinicians, patients, and their families [15], [16]. However, the classifications set up by the ICF cannot lead to better patient care without an improved problem-solving technique [17]. "
Article: Pruning a Decision Tree for Selecting Computer-Related Assistive Devices for People With Disabilities[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Many disabled individuals lack extensive knowledge about assistive technology, which could help them use computers. In 1997, Denis Anson developed a decision tree of 49 evaluative questions designed to evaluate the functional capabilities of the disabled user and choose an appropriate combination of assistive devices, from a selection of 26, that enable the individual to use a computer. In general, occupational therapists guide the disabled users through this process. They often have to go over repetitive questions in order to find an appropriate device. A disabled user may require an alphanumeric entry device, a pointing device, an output device, a performance enhancement device, or some combination of these. Therefore, the current research eliminates redundant questions and divides Anson's decision tree into multiple independent subtrees to meet the actual demand of computer users with disabilities. The modified decision tree was tested by six disabled users to prove it can determine a complete set of assistive devices with a smaller number of evaluative questions. The means to insert new categories of computer-related assistive devices was included to ensure the decision tree can be expanded and updated. The current decision tree can help the disabled users and assistive technology practitioners to find appropriate computer-related assistive devices that meet with clients' individual needs in an efficient manner.IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering: a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society 04/2012; 20(4):564-73. DOI:10.1109/TNSRE.2012.2193419 · 3.19 Impact Factor
- "With this approach, the first consideration in a clinical feeding evaluation is the child's level of participation in mealtime environments. Other dimensions to consider include functioning and disability (body functions, body structures, and activities and participation), contextual factors (environmental—external to an individual's control), and personal factors (unique to each person, such as past experience or background) [WHO, 2001; Threats, 2006]. Details on the ICF can be found at http://www.who.int/classifications/icf/en/ . "
Article: Assessment of pediatric dysphagia and feeding disorders: Clinical and instrumental approaches[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Assessment of infants and children with dysphagia (swallowing problems) and feeding disorders involves significantly more considerations than a clinical observation of a feeding. In addition to the status of feeding in the child, considerations include health status, broad environment, parent-child interactions, and parental concerns. Interdisciplinary team approaches allow for coordinated global assessment and management decisions. Underlying etiologies or diagnoses must be delineated to every extent possible because treatment will vary according to history and current status in light of all factors that are often interrelated in complex ways. A holistic approach to evaluation is stressed with a primary goal for every child to receive adequate nutrition and hydration without health complications and with no stress to child or to caregiver. Instrumental swallow examinations that aid in defining physiological swallowing status are needed for some children. Successful oral feeding must be measured in quality of meal time experiences with best possible oral sensorimotor skills and safe swallowing while not jeopardizing a child's functional health status or the parent-child relationship.Developmental Disabilities Research Reviews 01/2008; 14(2):118-27. DOI:10.1002/ddrr.17 · 2.75 Impact Factor
- "In clinical research, an instrument would help to identify differences in the severity and pattern of restrictions in participation across and within various populations (e.g., dysarthria vs. cognitive-communication disorders, traumatic brain injury vs. multiple sclerosis, and mild vs. moderate severity of impairment). Finally, if communicative participation was adequately measured, we could study its relationship with other important variables such as QOL (Threats, 2006). "
Article: Measuring Communicative Participation: A Review of Self-Report Instruments in Speech-Language Pathology[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To assess the adequacy of self-report instruments in speech-language pathology for measuring a construct called communicative participation. Six instruments were evaluated relative to (a) the construct measured, (b) the relevance of individual items to communicative participation, and (c) their psychometric properties. No instrument exclusively measured communicative participation. Twenty-six percent (n = 34) of all items (N = 132) across the reviewed instruments were consistent with communicative participation. The majority (76%) of the 34 items were associated with general communication, while the remaining 24% of the items were associated with communication at work, during leisure, or for establishing relationships. Instruments varied relative to psychometric properties. No existing self-report instruments in speech-language pathology were found to be solely dedicated to measuring communicative participation. Developing an instrument for measuring communicative participation is essential for meeting the requirements of our scope of practice.American Journal of Speech-Language Pathology 12/2006; 15(4):307-20.

The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) announced Wednesday that it has launched a pilot program offering parties in simplified cases pro bono or reduced-fee telephone mediation.
Participation in the pilot program, which began on Jan.15, is voluntary and open to cases involving claims of $50,000 or less, FINRA says.
"Telephone mediation is a lower-cost alternative, and would benefit dispute resolution forum users in many ways," said Linda Fienberg, president of FINRA Dispute Resolution, in a statement. "Besides eliminating the travel and preparation costs typically associated with in-person mediation, telephonic mediation offers greater convenience and flexibility, and is a practical alternative for all parties involved."
Parties interested in participating in the pilot can notify FINRA by visiting www.finra.org/arbitrationmediation/smallclaims. Also, FINRA says staff will notify eligible parties about the pilot program.
Mediators would serve on a pro bono basis on cases involving claims of $25,000 or less in damages. Reduced-fee mediation ($50 per hour) would be available on cases with damage claims between $25,000.01 and $50,000. FINRA says it will not charge any administrative fee for these cases.

Mehdi Hasan exposes misconceptions about the continent
Explore Japan through its offbeat train culture
21 Jun 2013 03:31 GMT | Environment, Humanitarian crises, Asia Pacific, Indonesia, Malaysia
Singapore's prime minister has said that the thick smog shrouding the city could last for weeks, as the smoke drove air quality "hazardous" levels and disrupted business and travel in the region.
Air quality has deteriorated to "hazardous" levels in both Singapore and Malaysia over the past few days as smoke from forest fires in Indonesia obscured skies and disrupted businesses and travel.
"It can easily last for several weeks and quite possibly longer until the dry season ends in Sumatra," Lee Hsien Loong said on Thursday, warning of action if Singapore-linked companies were behind the burning.
"On the scale of it, it's unlikely to be just small stakeholders slashing and burning."
Earlier on Thursday, Agung Laksono, the minister who is coordinating Indonesia's response to the haze crisis, accused Singapore of "behaving like a child" by complaining about severe haze from raging forest fires on Sumatra island that has cloaked the city-state.
"Singapore should not be behaving like a child and making all this noise," he told reporters in Jakarta.Laksono was responding to Singapore's demands earlier on Thursday for "definitive" action by Indonesia to quell forest fires raging in Sumatra.
A technical meeting between Indonesian and Singaporean officials is scheduled during which Indonesia will share information on what it has been doing and will listen to concerns from Singapore.Slash-and-burn land clearingWork at several Singapore construction sites slowed with few workers seen outdoors while the city-state called on Indonesia to do something.
No country or corporation has the right to pollute the air at the expense of Singaporeans' health and well-being
Vivian Balakrishnan
"No country or corporation has the right to pollute the air at the expense of Singaporeans' health and well-being," Singapore's Environment and Water Resources Minister Vivian Balakrishnan said on his Facebook page.
Balakrishnan said Singapore had sent officials to an emergency haze meeting in the Indonesian capital, Jakarta.
At 1:00 pm local time on Thursday, the city-state's pollution standards index (PSI) soared to a new high of 371, indicating air quality had deteriorated to "hazardous" levels, and exceeding the previous record set on Wednesday night.
A PSI reading above 300 indicates "hazardous" air, while a reading between 201 and 300 means "very unhealthy".
The top PSI readings in Singapore over the past two days have exceeded the peak of 226 reached in 1997 when smog from Indonesian fires disrupted shipping and air travel across Southeast Asia.
Indonesian officials have tried to deflect blame by suggesting companies based in Singapore may be partly to blame for the fires. Singapore has said it wants Indonesia to provide maps of land concessions so it can act against firms that allow slash-and-burn land clearing.
The illegal burning of forest on Indonesia's Sumatra island, to the west of Singapore and Malaysia, to clear land for palm oil plantations is a chronic problem, particularly during the June to September dry season.
Singapore, which prides itself on its clean environment and usually enjoys clear skies, saw its air quality deteriorate to unhealthy levels on Monday.

A dense haze has blanketed the city-state with officials blaming neighbouring Indonesia's slash-and-burn agriculture.
Forest fires send a cloud of smoke and haze over parts of Asia causing worst air pollution in years.

bumGenius Flannel Baby Wipes are designed for washing little faces, dirty bums, and for wiping runny noses. The fabric is completely natural and always unbleached. The soft flannel will not irritate your baby's tender skin. Just the right size to fit in your wipe warmer! 12 per pack.

Designed by a mom and conscientiously manufactured in the U.S.A.

Reviewed by Kayla on Monday 06 January, 2014
These are better than I expected! They are thin but thicker than baby washcloths and softer! I have two other kinds of cloth wipes and they are double layered and thicker, but I really like having a variety. the Bumgenius ones are great for traveling because I can pack way more since they are so thin and they are easier to wet with a wipe spray!

I loved the idea of having reusable wipes to go along with the diapers, however the fabric left fuzzies on my daughter bum. I also got the bum cleaner to use with them, which smells great, it didnt work that well for us. I then thought I would just use warm water. Again it didnt work well for us. My daughter got a rash, more like a very chapped bum, from using the warm water. So I gave up on them for wipes, and went with Earths best tender care, they work great on her skin, and she has been chapped butt free since we switched. I must say I still do use the Flannel wipes every day, I used them to wipe her nose and wipe her hands and face. They are great but I do not use them on my daughter's bum. They are good for every kind of wiping, just not bum wipes.

Best wipes I've used... granted I only have one pack of these, and all the others I made myself. I have upcycled a bunch of t shirts, used different types of cotton, and even used super soft flannel, but none are as good as these. I don't know what it is, but they are just perfect. I kind of wish they were a little less expensive, but I guess they are worth getting a few.

I really like these wipes because of the size. They fit nicely in my warmer and are ready to use just like a disposable. I don't use a solution just warm water.

"Kirkus' review of The Mill River Recluse played an important role in encouraging readers to take a chance on a first novel by an unknown author."
— Darcie Chan, independent author of The Mill River Recluse, which sold more than 500,000 copies
Seven Impossible Things Before Breakfast (or "7-Imp," if you're in a hurry), created in 2006, is a children's literature blog that features the work of authors and illustrators and is primarily focused on contemporary illustration and picture books. Think of it as a salon where book creators stop by, after getting a cup of cyber-coffee, to share their craft—and where illustrators wake us up with art.
The Fall 2015 book season is nearly here, and in the realm of picture books it's a time of many happy returns—that is, the opportunity to see again some beloved characters from previous publications.
Some of these characters are huger than others: the characters from Audrey and Don Wood's classic The Napping House, published 31 years ago and a staple for multiple decades in children's bedrooms and classrooms all over the country, return in early September in The Full Moon ...
At my own site, Seven Impossible Things Before Breakfast, I like to keep my eye on the work of debut author-illustrators—even, for that matter, up-and-coming student illustrators. Today, I want to focus on the solidly good picture books of three debut author-illustrators. Let's take these in chronological order by release date, shall we?
First up is Phoebe Wahl's Sonya's Chickens (you'll come for the elegant endpapers and distinctive art and stay for the powerful story), which Kirkus has already given ...
How do you follow up a Newbery-winning novel adored by many children across the country? If you're Katherine Applegate, you do so with a bit of procrastination, as you'll read below.
You can also follow it up by giving it the very thing that many people loved about the award-winner—a lot of heart. In Crenshaw, coming to shelves in September, Applegate tells the story of Jackson, a boy whose family has fallen on hard times. There's little money for food ...
In literature, people tend to throw around the phrase "Golden Age" with abandon. I keep hearing that we're living in a "Golden Age of Picture Books," and I'm still thinking about that one. But I think many people would agree that it's a Golden Age of graphic novels for children. We see on a regular basis many well-crafted new titles, one of them even winning a Newbery Honor this year and one, geared at teen readers, winning a Caldecott ...
I like to keep my eye on picture book releases from smaller publishers, and I always like to see the ones that are making their way to American soil from overseas. Today, I've got two such books, quite unlike any others I've seen this year.
First up is Nankichi Niimi's Gon, The Little Fox, illustrated by Genjirou Mita. This is the English retelling of a Japanese folktale, originally published in 1969; the publisher (Museyon) brought it to American shelves in ...
Author Liz Garton Scanlon has been busy writing lately, but that's nothing new. However, what is new and novel for her is…well, a novel. The acclaimed author of picture books, including the 2010 Caldecott Honoree All the World, illustrated by Marla Frazee, published her first children's novel this year. The Great Good Summer was released in May and has been met with positive reviews, Kirkus calling it "equal parts peculiar and poignant."
It's the story of Ivy Green's seventh-grade ...
This year marks the 50th anniversary of the historic Voting Rights Act of 1965. Two brand-new picture books for children tell stories of the struggles African Americans faced in decades past with regard to their right to vote, one even closing with a note about today's ongoing inequalities. The books take different approaches, but each humanizes the struggles by introducing us to characters we care about and root for.
Granddaddy's Turn: A Journey to the Ballot Box, with the ...
I've got my sights set on some picture book imports today, all three of them originally published in French. Two are by the celebrated author-illustrator Olivier Tallec, and one is by the just-as-celebrated Marianne Dubuc. And all three books are utterly pleasing in many directions.
First up, let's take a look at Dubuc's book, which will be on shelves in early August. Mr. Postmouse's Rounds, originally published in French (Dubuc lives in Quebec), is the type of detailed book that ...

Good quality, beautiful table! Carla from Alexandria, VA on 01/31/2015 – Verified Buyer
I purchased this table to use next to my counter top while I'm prepping food in the kitchen. Here are the reasons I love it... 1.) Very heavy table so it stays in place when I'm using it, even when I don't have the wheels locked. 2.) The surface area is nice and long and wide enough to put anything you would need. I can fit several cutting boards as well as any food I am preparing for dinner. 3.)The storage shelf underneath is perfect for extra supplies. 4.)The stainless steel adds a pretty, sleek look to my kitchen, and I think it would work well with any décor. The table with the wheels on it is slightly higher than my counter height, but I am 5'3" and I am comfortable using it with no problem. I would highly recommend it. I did place a fabric tablecloth over the top to protect it from scratches because I plan to use it for years to come!

Good work surface MIGuy from US on 09/04/2014 – Verified Buyer
My wife and I really like this cart - it's a multi-purpose work surface that you can wheel into the kitchen for something, then wheel it completely out of the way. I'm sure the table would do well for hobbyists, and equally well as a tool shop work surface. There are couple things I suppose I would change about the table, if I had my hand in the design - I'd probably lower its height (with wheels) to match standard counter height (with the wheels off it's close..), and I might consider redesigning the braking system (it has two locking wheels, and two freewheeling wheels) to operate a little differently, given we have 2 small kids who like to 'help'... BUT .. then the negative items I've just mentioned are nullified by looking at the price point of some other fully stainless steel kitchen tables by 'premier' manufacturers.

It is higher but much more sturdy than anticipated. Girl from New Jersey on 01/25/2015 – Verified Buyer
Although the reviews said it was high, I'm not sure I clearly anticipated how tall it was with the wheels on. I am satisfied with the quality and sturdiness. It is much much higher than average counter height. The packaging was such that when I opened it one side of the top shelf was rubbed. I'm not sure if it can just be polished off. Stainless is sturdy. So I am ok with it. It was ok to put together not easy not hard. Just took a few minutes. I was familiar with this type of thing. I am discovering that the shipping companies tracking is a more reliable indication of arrival date that the wayfair site. I took a star off because of the way the shipping company manhandled the package onto my front door. I agree it was very heavy but if the whole thing had not been the sturdiest stainless, it would have been destroyed. I'm happy with the product.

Just what I was looking for! Allyssa from Port Saint Lucie, FL on 02/10/2015 – Verified Buyer
Love it!! Just what I was looking for! Needed an "island" for my kitchen & measurements were never quite right, too small, big, square, short, etc... this is the PERFECT size... the taller height is great, a little taller than regular counter height & since I am tall it's a perfect fit!! Love the HUGE extra storage shelf! Would buy another one in a heartbeat... If I had another kitchen... LOL!! I did read negative reviews before I purchased... to answer those: No, the wheel locks don't work well... I took mine off... problem solved. Even without wheels the height was still awesome! & Yes... the surface will get scratched if you prepare food, work, etc. on it... well of course... isn't that what you buy it for... to use it? a few scratches doesn't bother me & after a bit more use it will just become part of the surface... it's just a great piece.

So after getting stuck forever in a traffic jam our driver, Sacha, found a very narrow rural road to get us around the works, but we wasted nearly an hour and by the time we had rejoined the freeway and spent 10 minutes at the border into Slovakia getting our toll pass, it was mid afternoon.
