As we develop this hybrid of therapy work for us to do at home in between J-Man's work with his therapists and his time at school, we have been drawing a big blank on one critically important piece of the puzzle. I call it 'reward pellets'.
The concept comes basically from how they train animals. They do something right, they get some sort of reward. Often, it's a food pellet.
This may sound completely silly in a conversation about autistic kids, but it's an important part of the structure and motivational processes needed to keep moving forward. The more you talk about this stuff, the more it sounds like training a schnauzer. But, it is what it is, and you get over it eventually.
If you have an autistic child, this probably isn't news to you. In certain instances, if your child completes a new task, responds to your question, names an object for the first time, or something along those lines, you'll give them a special treat or reward of some kind. We tend not to do this quite as often as some therapies lean toward, but we do have "you've worked hard, you've earned X" as part of the equation.
As part of the home classroom work we're devising, we're coming up with a system of 'picture scheduling', a way of using visual cues of some sort to illustrate how we're going to sequence something, whether it be daily activities or the classroom tasks we'll be doing for that 'session'.
For example, on his desk, we now have three (or four for lengthier sessions) colored shapes (red heart, green square, blue circle, plus yellow star for the fourth) in a row across the top of the desk. Next to him (on his left) is a bookshelf with three (or four) open-top plastic bins with those same shapes in the same order.
Our goal will be to get him to remove the first shape from his desk (red heart) and match it with (stick it on) the red heart on the bin (it'll stick on with the velcro), do the activity in the bin, put it back in the bin, put the whole thing in the 'done basket' (a large clothes basket on the floor), then move on to the next shape and activity, and so on until we're done.
[I'll get around to posting a picture of this soon.]
Here's the missing link. At the end of the row of shapes is (or should be in our case) a picture of the 'reward' (also known as a 'reinforcer' or 'reinforcing object' I think). For some kids it might be a picture of an M&M or a favorite toy or something. The idea is that it should be something special and not otherwise part of the classroom routine.
Our main problem? J-Man isn't really attached to any toy, food, or anything else for that matter. He's really attached to us, but it's not like we're going to reserve hugs for rewards or something.
Our partial solution is to use pictures of his favorite TV shows. When he completes all the tasks, he gets five minutes of a show. This means we have to cue up the DVR to the right place beforehand so that it will just show five minutes and not abruptly end mid-show. Easy enough, though. The hope is that this whole cycle will take about 15 minutes – 10 for the activities and 5 for the 'reward' – with the goal of completing four cycles in a row (or an hour total, however that works out). I'm not real jazzed about using TV for this purpose, but we've been low on options.
If the end of those activities mean the end of the classroom time for a while (i.e., we're off for a couple of hours), the picture could be of his swing set, which is NOT something we could do for five minutes without inciting a riot. Plus it's getting so hot that our ability to use it will get limited soon.
That brings us to our latest discovery, which may very well be the reward we were looking for.
Going on the "keyboards are the best things since cheese toast" revelation, we discovered the LeapFrog ClickStart My First Computer. It's a regular QWERTY keyboard like ours (he would have noticed if it wasn't) and the games included on the console can be simplified enough that all he really has to do is sit there and type. Letters appear, it names letters out loud, and generally fun things happen. We think it's cute.
He thinks it's so great he's almost beside himself.
To make sure he doesn't just use it to zone out, we sit there and ask him to type a particular letter (he may or may not), encourage him to try various parts of the keyboard (he's pretty fixated on 'K' because he recognizes it and he can say it), and generally be there to be interactive. He also was getting very excited, which results in lots of hand flapping and general overload, so we're there to do the normal stuff we do to help him stay centered (deep pressure, massage, singing, etc.)
The obvious question is, if it makes him do that and you have to center him, why do it? Mostly because his best learning takes place in a certain zone (we call it the 'sweet spot') where he's not too over or under-stimulated. Under-stimulation is just as stifling to his ability to do anything as the overload is. He can zone out or get overloaded in just about any activity. The ones he's really excited about do make it hard for him to settle down, but that's part of the process of things he needs to learn. By being there and being interactive (and not letting him drop out or go into his own world with it), we turn it into a quality activity.
Anyway, looks like Leap Frog has provided our 'reward pellet' for now.
Question for the masses, particularly those whose kids are attached to very few things – how do you handle the reward thing?

(Inform) Reverend Libby Lane has been announced as the first female bishop for the Church of England. She will become the new Bishop of Stockport, filling a post that has been vacant since May, and marking an end to years of debate within the Church. Lane will be consecrated as the eighth bishop of the town at a ceremony at York Minster on Jan. 26. The Church of England's parliament, the General Synod, voted to back plans for female bishops back in July, but the historic change to canon law was not formally adopted until Nov. 17. Speaking at Stockport Town Hall, she said it was a "remarkable day for me and an historic day for the Church".

History of the Universe eBook. 398 pages, 300 illustrations only $2.99
ATELLA, an ancient Oscan town of Campania, 9 m. N. of Naples and 9 m. S. of Capua, on the road between the two. It was a member of the Campanian confederation, and shared the fortunes of Capua, but remained faithful to Hannibal for a longer time; the great part of the inhabitants, when they could no longer resist the Romans, were transferred by him to Thurii, and the town was reoccupied in 211 by the Romans, who settled the exiled inhabitants of Nuceria there. The fate of Atella at the end of the war, when the latter were able to return to their own city, is unknown. Cicero was in friendly relations with it, and exerted influence that it might retain its property in Gaul, so that it is obvious that it had then recovered municipal rights. The town is mainly famous as the cradle of early Roman comedy, the Fabulae Atellanae (see below). Some remains of the town still exist, including a tower of the city wall in brick.
See J. Beloch, Campanien (2nd ed., Breslau, 1890), p. 379.

|The aim of this research was to identify the main challenges for e-services as strategy for restaurants and the understanding of the customers behavior in TRNC. The objectives of this research are:
(1) Evaluate the current situation of the e-services offered by restaurants in TRNC;
(2) Analyze the demand for orders and booking restaurants through internet;
(3) Investigate the challenges for developing e-service strategies for restaurants in TRNC;
(4) Propose alternatives for applying new e-service strategies for restaurants in TRNC.
Both qualitative and quantitative methods were applied for data collection in Lefkosa, Famagusta and Girne. Online questionnaire was used to collect data from actual and potential user of the service, regarding its of reliability, control, service oriented and convenience.
With over 300 samples has been collected.
Based on the findings Turkish and Foreigner who lives in TRNC are willing to use e-services; however it will take some years until these applications become more familiar to them. The trend of users is going towards the use of technologies and adding value to the customers. Limitation for having a bigger market for the web site providers is that the web sites are in still in only Turkish and does not offer the option in English, this is a high barrier for capturing the market where have high amount of tourist and international students. Other limitations are that local people are not 100% comfortable with the use of the internet for these services, reputation and credibility of the web pages, technologies development and the difficulties to be updated, the lack of use of customer data base. Also as one of the main problems, that the web sites are facing is the window time for the delivery. Process for delivery and booking systems are suggested for optimizing the time of the delivery after the order has being placed or confirmation of tables that have been booked.

Antimicrobial Resistance and Universal Health Coverage
Download this publication
The WHO launched a Global Action Plan on antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in 2015. World leaders in the G7, G20 and the UN General Assembly have declared AMR to be a global crisis. World leaders have also adopted universal health coverage (UHC) as a key target under the sustainable development goals.
This paper argues that neither initiative is likely to succeed in isolation from the other and that the policy goals should be to both provide access to appropriate antimicrobial treatment and reduce the risk of the emergence and spread of resistance by taking a systems approach. It focuses on outpatient treatment of human infections and identifies a number of interventions that would be needed to achieve these policy goals. It then shows how a strategy for achieving key attributes of a health system for UHC can take into account the need to address AMR as part of a UHC strategy in any country. It concludes with a list of recommended priority actions for integrating initiatives on AMR and UHC.

Michael Mandel, chief economist at Business Week believes that innovation is "the only game in town." In this time of financial meltdown and economic crisis, he believes that the only way we can pull out of this mess is for innovation to prevail in our culture.
I agree with his intention, but most of his suggestions left me scratching my head. Michael suggests that we need new economic policies (tax incentives, etc) to encourage companies to be more innovative. He also suggests prizes, and encourages new technology development. While these policies can't hurt, I find that a lack of incentives or ideas is not the problem. While his suggestions won't hurt, and may help, I don't think they will have the deep, meaninful impact that is needed.
In my experience, the problem lies in the fact that most companies don't know what to do to be more innovative. They know that in order to grow or be more profitable they will need to innovate. That is a great incentive. There are also more than enough ideas to go around. What is lacking is that most companies do not know how to guide innovation efforts in a way that will be valuable in the market. They also have a difficult time managing innovation efforts within cultures that need to manage predictable processes and outcomes. To be more innovative, companies need to find ways to reward behaviors that encourage innovation, without discouraging the maintenance of business. To be more innovative, companies need to be encouraged to take on projects whose outcomes cannot be defined before the project is started. To be more innovative, companies need to learn to identify problems before they search for technologies. Otherwise we end up with solutions in search of problems. These are difficult behaviors for organizations to manage from within organizations who need to reward reliable delivery of products and services.
We are a community of innovators. What would you suggest to Michael to answer the question: What is necessary for America to become more innovative in the future? How can we help him?

From Guy Bechor writing at Ynet News:
For years, 'experts' have been dealing with the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, without realizing just how marginal it is and without understanding that it is being used as a tool for diverting the attention from the region's real problems.
Once again, US Secretary of State John Kerry has returned to Israel after a long absence. This time, we can hope and pray, he already sees the Middle East differently.
The heads of the current American administration believed from their very first day in office that the Archimedean point in the Middle East is Israel. If you pressure it and "solve" the "Israeli" conflict, the entire region will fall at your feet. That's why the Obama administration dealt with the Israeli issue was so intensively.
Obama and Kerry wouldn't let go, and in the president's second term they even launched long, exhausting negotiations which they imposed on Israel and on a certain group of Palestinians called "the Palestinian Authority."
I have often written that it's a serious mistake. I have warned that the White House doesn't have the time to deal with a conflict which has become old and marginal, while huge conflicts are about to take place in the region and in the entire world.

Foot Relief Soft Silicone Sports Insoles #shoeinserts
The fast pacing lifestyle has almost made people forget about their health. The stress or work and studies have also affected the physical and mental health of the people. Those who want to adopt a healthy lifestyle by working out or playing sports or even those who are professionally involved in athletics, often face issues like foot ache. To help you out with such an issues soft shoe insoles are now being introduced by many different companies.
Soft shoe insole can be made any of the materials: soft memory form and gel, valorous fabric or PE film. The insoles allows the user to walk, exercise and jog with ease, without stressing or hurting their feet. The insoles made of memory form rebounces within two seconds. This allows the user to move without stress. The high elastic material used in these insoles converts the impact into the kinetic energy hence helping the user to run with ease without hurting their feet.
The insoles are available in different sizes. Also they have curves of different lengths that can be cut in order to fit the proper size of the shoe. Different sizes for men and women are available. The insoles includes valorous fabric that absorbs sweat and keeps away odor from the feet. The honeycomb designs allows better grip.
A few suggestions regarding the use of insoles are:
• Keep your shoes dry
• Remove the original sole of the shoe before putting the soft insole
• Try to buy two pairs for alternate use
• Put the insoles in a ventilating place to keep them dry and fresh.
I received complimentary product.

Maybelline The Falsies Black Drama Review
16 comments:
I have short 'asian lashes', I tend to favor mascara wif waterproof formula over the normal one because it holds curl soo much better! When I bought my Maybelline falsie mascara, by accident I picked up the normal one. I went back immediately to exchange for the waterproof one :P hahaaReplyDeleteReplies
Waterproof all the way! Now I think about it, I don't think I have every used a non-waterproof mascara that has worked wonders for me :sDelete
I guess waterproof formula really makes a difference!ReplyDelete
to the question to my blog I have it in the shade medium they have 4 shades, fair, light, medium and dark.Replies
Yes it really does!Delete
Thanks for answering Irene ^__^
aww too bad it failed the expectation, guess we just need to stay with the waterproof version =)ReplyDeleteReplies
Yeah this mascara was a big fat fail. I could've saved some money and got another waterproof version ; w ;Delete
Damn, i need to check what version mine is (i havent opened it yet but i have such high hopes XD) i don't like waterproof mascara, it's so hard to get off my lashes T.T do u have any special way u take urs off? :DReplyDeleteReplies
Hope you have the version you want!!Delete
I highly recommend using oil cleansers! They seriously take off EVERYTHING ^^
Wow, the difference is so noticeable!ReplyDelete
Only waterproof mascara works on my lashes - but despite this, I always get sucked into trying normal mascaras in the eternal hope that they maybe will work for me T_TReplies
I know right!Delete

Now in its 22nd year, the ASHA workshop provides state and federal updates to participants and opportunities for networking with state association leaders. Presenters included ASHA President Alex Johnson and Vice President for Governmental and Social Policies De Anne Owre. Attendees participated in a role-playing session to explore solutions to personnel vacancies in the schools and came up with a number of suggestions: using promotional brochures to provide information on the professions to high school students via guidance counselors attending guidance counselor conventions having colleges and universities host focused career fairs promoting speech-language pathology assistants at the university level as an employment option after four years providing better treatment facilities examining workload as part of retention including articles in The ASHA Leader on job sharing offering distance education programs for those with bachelor's degrees to obtain their master's degree As in past years, participants had the opportunity to explore in greater detail issues they identified as priorities in their states. Recruitment and retention of SLPs and audiologists in schools, shortages/funding in university settings, reimbursement, and personnel issues in health care topped the list of topics selected for workshop roundtable sessions. CSAP Meets The State Policy Workshop was followed by the spring meeting of the Council of State Association Presidents (CSAP). At this meeting, states have the opportunity to share successes and challenges during the popular "Bring, Brag, and Moan" session. During this session, CSAP members reported on numerous activities in their states associations including the following: Arizona has increased attendance of audiologists at their convention. Arkansas is working on acquiring funding for salary supplement legislation. Florida is concerned that Medicaid reform will threaten to restrict access or eliminate speech, language, and hearing services to children. Georgia has seen a significant increase in student membership. Idaho is planning a joint conference in the fall of 2007 with the Montana, Wyoming, and Utah state speech-language-hearing associations. Illinois has established a foundation to provide scholarship and research grants. Maryland succeeded in passing a bill for licensure reimbursement for all school-based SLPs working in the state, and they had their first "Swap & Shop" where you could display gently used items for $10 a table. Minnesota worked on the passage of a telepractice policy and is working with the Department of Education to establish guidelines for a pilot project. Nebraska hosted a successful legislative breakfast which half of all state senators attended. New Hampshire is developing a public relations campaign aimed at educating consumers so they are able to make informed decisions about speech-language services. New York has been invited by the state licensure board to serve on a committee that is conducting a study of personnel shortages. Ohio celebrated its 60 years as a state association. Pennsylvania's past president is now on the state licensure board. Texas celebrated 50 years as a state association and has made the continuing education application process available online.
