As long as you are not on an "anabolic" type supplement, i cool with it but prefer stand alone but weightloss product will only show the value of this product.
you will get stronger on reduced calories...pretty confident of that at this point
alright! Well count me in then. Strength boost would be nice due to the fasted workouts in the am. after about a week or so it started climbing back up there again. you want apps on here as well?
Look outside America USP labs. There is a big wide world out there, sure there are plenty that'd be happy to test it out!! With two top ten products Im sure some postage wont send your company under....;-)
Keep them coming...
Will pick the VIP testers tomorrow or Tonight, would need an address by tomorrow actually,.
THose apply need to give their word of Strategic like log that can be viewed at the Pink Chronicles forum at usplabsdirect.com
The serious lifter only!
I am def a serious lifter....
doing my own thang!
I take my stuff seriously. I can post up workouts if picked, will take pictures. I'm currently in the running for the 100 testers. I'm in the inner circle at USP and am running Jack3d and P-slin at the moments, and would not be mad at all about a little strength/mass boost. I'm 18, so I would obviously represent the younger end of the loggers. I think that would be sweet to have a nice age range for the VIP loggers. Thanks guys for the opportunity.
Hey Jacob,
I am most certainly a serious lifter.

This is my best friend, Berlina.
Since kindergarten, she's been bullied over her weight. She's had health complications because of it. She's changed schools because of it. And when I met her in year 7, she was still so bubbly, so full of life, you'd never believe that someone this strong was hiding so much pain.She's always been there for me as a friend. Last year, she sat by my hospital bedside for hours and hours and hours after my overdose. She literally wouldn't leave until the nurses forced everyone out. And the sacrifices she's made for not only me but all of my friends amazes me, because she's taken on everyone else's pain as well as her own.
Recently, she's been through a lot. It's our final year of high school and all our teachers are harassing her for 'not putting enough effort into her studies' despite the fact that she's not going for an ATAR (final exam rank). She cuts the words fat and ugly into her arm. She's dealt with death threats from one of her ex best friends. She's had guys treat her like shit and been called a slut and a fat bitch. And so she's starting to believe it.
Please, please reblog this if you think Berlina is beautiful, inside and out. Reblog if you have a friend who's amazing who you want to tell all of tumblr about.
Reblog because no one so good should feel so bad that they want to end their own life.
Why do assholes like you have to ruin things like this with these "IM JUDGING YOU POSTS" stop being a condescending little shit thanks.

The Hippocratic Oath pleads "First do no harm"; hence, declining to continue a physician-patient relationship in such a situation can be construed as protecting from that harm the patients who do follow medical advice to vaccinate against preventable and potentially deadly childhood disease. From a business perspective (yes, unfortunately private physicians are business people, too), it makes even more sense to have a policy like that known to all patients; parents who choose not to vaccinate will not be dissatisfied when they learn the physician has a different philosophy then they do after the relationship has been established, and patients who do have their children vaccinated will feel the physician is adding an extra layer of protection.

Esophagitis is generally categorized by the conditions that cause it. In some cases, more than one factor may be causing esophagitis.
A valve-like structure called the lower esophageal sphincter usually keeps the acidic contents of the stomach out of the esophagus. If this valve opens when it shouldn't or doesn't close properly, the contents of the stomach may back up into the esophagus (gastroesophageal reflux). Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a condition in which this backflow of acid is a frequent or ongoing problem. A complication of GERD is chronic inflammation and tissue damage in the esophagus.
Eosinophils (e-oh-SIN-oh-phils) are white blood cells that regulate inflammation and play a key role in allergic reactions. Eosinophilic esophagitis occurs with a high concentration of these white blood cells in the esophagus, most likely in response to an allergy-causing agent (allergen).
In many cases, people who have this kind of esophagitis are allergic to one or more foods. Some foods that may cause eosinophilic esophagitis include milk, eggs, wheat, soy, peanuts, beans, rye and beef. People with eosinophilic esophagitis may have other nonfood allergies. For example, inhaled allergens, such as pollen, may be the cause in some cases.
Several oral medications may cause tissue damage if they remain in contact with the lining of the esophagus for a prolonged period. For example, if a pill is swallowed with little or no water, the pill itself or residue from the pill may remain in the esophagus. Drugs that have been linked to esophagitis include:
Esophagitis may also be caused by a bacterial, viral, fungal or parasitic infection in tissues of the esophagus. Infectious esophagitis is relatively rare and occurs most often in people with poor immune system function, such as people with HIV/AIDS or cancer.
A fungus normally present in the mouth called Candida albicans is a common cause of infectious esophagitis. Such infections are often associated with poor immune system function, diabetes, cancer and antibiotic use.

Chasing Jones, a five piece pop rock band, has defined themselves with high energy performances, catchy lyrics and steady grooves. "This is another act that has the modern edge, but embraces melody and harmony and some solid hooks to take this into 'yay' territory" writes Bob Segarini, an apt description of a band who has dedicated themselves to crafting modern hits with shades of the pop rock that defined a generation in the 1990's.

text: I can't argue with that. Most of what I said above is how I feel about what I say. However, I do think there are certain issues that are just not funny, and even professional comedians should avoid them. I don't think rape is funny, I don't think child molestation is funny, I don't think genocide is funny. But, that is my opinion, no one has to agree.

Staff-recommended viewing from the KPL catalog.
If you love movies like I do, you may have been waiting anxiously for the Academy Award nominations that were announced this morning, which is kind of like opening day for Oscar season. And if you're a hardcore fanatic like I am, you try to see as many of the nominated films as possible before the Big Night. Thanks to the nearby Rave Cinema, which often shows more independent and limited-release films than its in-town competitors, I can often catch many of the nominees in a timely fashion. But for some of the more esoteric films, I often find myself driving to places like Grand Rapids, Lansing or Ann Arbor, as I have already done this season. (Crazy, I know, but I did use the word "fanatic" to describe myself.) For those of you normal folks who'd prefer their cultural horizons to be expanded without breaking their odometer, I thought I would mention all of the year's Oscar-nominated stuff that you can get right here, right now at KPL.
Four of the Best Picture nominees are available now on Blu-ray and DVD:
The film Hugo had the most Oscar nominations with 11, which included Best Picture, Director (Martin Scorsese), and Adapted Screenplay. As of this writing, it does not yet have a release date for Blu-ray or DVD, but you can read The Invention of Hugo Cabret, Brian Selznick's Caldecott-winning book upon which it was based. Howard Shore's score was also nominated and is currently on compact disc.
Other Best Picture nominees not yet available on Blu-ray or DVD but based on books you can read now include Kaui Hart Hemmings' The Descendants (5 nominations), Jonathan Safran Foer's Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close(2 nominations), and Michael Morpurgo's War Horse (6 nominations).
Beyond the Best Picture list, there are plenty of currently available films that received Oscar nominations today:
David Fincher's adaptation of Stieg Larsson's mega-popular mystery The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo received five nominations; it's not yet available on Blu-ray or DVD, but you can read the book, check out the original Swedish version, or listen to Trent Reznor's score (which was, in my opinion, the Academy's biggest snub this year).
Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy received nominations for Actor (Gary Oldman), Original Score, and Adapted Screenplay. You can read the novel from spymaster John le Carré, or check out the original British mini-series starring Alec Guinness.
Flight of the Conchords vet Bret McKenzie received a Best Original Song nomination for the amusingly existential "Man or Muppet" track from—what else?—The Muppets. The soundtrack is available now. The only other song nomination came from the soundtrack to the animated film Rio.
So there you have it: an exhaustive list of currently available materials from this year's crop of Oscar nominations, complete with links to the items themselves. Whether you use it to browse for some ideas, or turn it into a checklist for immediate consumption is up to you. Now if you'll excuse me, I have some driving to do.
(Psst. If your interested in my personal choices for the ten best films of the year, you can find them here.)
Kisses is a small-scale but affecting film that showcases the impressive talents of its two young actors. Emotionally and physically abused tweens Dylan and Kylie, set out on a twenty-four hour adventure in the big city in hopes of escaping their domestic problems. Searching for Dylan's big brother, who allegedly lives in Dublin, these two tough yet sweet kids from the suburbs discover that the city possesses both a dangerous and exhilerating side to it. Kisses effectively mixes together a romantic tale about childhood innocence with the grim depictions of an unforgiving urban environment.
Gus Van Sant is a major American film director and writer whose early work (Drug Store Cowboy and My Own Private Idaho) along with others like Quentin Tarantino, Whit Stillman, Spike Lee, and Steven Soderbergh revitalized American cinema in the early part of the 1990's. His most commercially successful film Good Will Hunting solidified him as an important director that could straddle the art house/commercial fence and introduced the acting and screenwriting of Ben Affleck and Matt Damon. Here are some of Van Sant's most lauded works.
Having recently taken over the responsibilities of selecting films for our audiovisual collection, I'm excited to report about some of the new titles that I've recently ordered. Some are here in the building and others are on their way. Why these films you ask? Well, these are personal favorites of mine that I would argue with great adoration and zeal that because of their artistic merits warrant their inclusion within our diverse and varied cinema collection. Some are big name classics and others are great films that have either languished in obscurity or have been appreciated only by its ardent fans. Some may have already been part of our collection in years past and now have a second chance at falling into your hands. I hope you enjoy these movie treasures.
I watch more films than the average person, so while the allure of the Lake Michigan shore often takes priority during these warm, sunny months, I've still managed to find some time to view several exceptional films that are worth checking out.
This is following upon Ann's earlier post about the depth and diversity of our film and television collection. I'd also like to point to the marvelous array of foreign language movies and in particular those that have been released by the Criterion Collection. There is no better way to introduce yourself to the rich body of world cinema then to explore Criterion's growing pool of cult films, many of which have never found a broad audience here in the United States. I'm referring to Larisa Shepitko's heartbreaking The Ascent (Russian), François Truffaut's memorable new wave coming of age story The 400 Blows (French), Hong Kong action hits like John Woo's The Killers (Cantonese), the highly influential masterpiece Rashomon by Akira Kurosawa (Japanese), and Steven Soderbergh's provoking narrative about drug trafficking Traffic (Spanish/English).
Looking for a great film to watch after the kids have sleepily gone to bed after tearing open their gifts? Cozy up with a leopard skin Snuggie and warm glass of egg nog and put in a dvd of one of these critically acclaimed films.

TEAMS: Dallas Mavericks, Charlotte Bobcats, New York Knicks, Minnesota Timberwolves
We all hope and pray that our teams can survive the hurdles that are placed in front of them and the Dallas Mavericks are no different than any other team. When it was made known that Dirk Nowitzki was going to have to have knee surgery, everyone in the media jumped on the crappy bandwagon and bashed the Mavericks and said that there was no way they would make it without Dirk.
Well, the Mavericks had something to prove and they started out that very way. They took the opener of the season in Los Angeles and faced the heavily favored Lakers and was able to escape with a victory, and a nice one at that. Then they travelled to Utah the very next night and took a thumping against the Jazz, but there again, the Mavericks have taken thumpings from Utah before and that was with Dirk in the lineup, even if he got ejected during the course of some of the games; face it, Utah doesn't like Dirk at all.
So we started the young season 1-1 with a relatively new team since when you put the team ...

Sandusky heads to court hearing on defense claims
February 20. 2013 1:25AM
The proceeding in Bellefonte (bell-FAHNT) is expected to last less than two hours. The topic is a set of legal challenges filed by his lawyers over how he was tried and convicted, including their claim that a deluge of prosecution materials swamped the defense.
Judge John Cleland issued an order last week for county deputies to bring Sandusky to the hearing. Heâ??s serving a prison sentence after being convicted of 45 counts of child sexual abuse.
The 68-year-old Sandusky spent decades as an assistant to the late head coach Joe Paterno. He maintains his innocence and is pursuing appeals.

UK Named a Bicycle Friendly University
The University of Kentucky has been recognized by the League of American Bicyclists as a Bicycle Friendly University. UK achieved a Bronze level designation and was one of only nine new universities to be named in the fall 2012 award class. The award gives UK the distinction of being the only Bicycle Friendly University in Kentucky. The UK Bicycle Advisory Committee, Parking and Transportation Services and the Office of Sustainability led the efforts which resulted in this honor.
The Bicycle Friendly University program recognizes institutions of higher education for promoting and providing a more bicycle-friendly campus for students, employees and visitors. Applicants are judged on their initiatives in five categories: engineering, education, encouragement, enforcement and evaluation and planning.

Share the Road
With the start of the fall semester at the University of Kentucky, PTS is urging cyclists, pedestrians and motorists to use caution when interacting with each other. As part of the Share the Road program, PTS is sending safety tips to both cyclists and drivers. PTS, in conjunction with the Lexington-Fayette Urban County Government, Fayette County Public Schools, Lexington Police and the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet, wants to promote safety on our roads.
Cyclists must be aware of motorists and pedestrians. Below is a list of cycling tips that will help keep the road a safe way to travel:
- Cyclists and motorists have the same rights, rules and responsibilities on Kentucky roads.
- Ride a bicycle in the same direction as vehicle traffic.
- Make eye contact with motorists – be sure you are seen.
- Use extra caution when changing lanes, and use appropriate lanes when turning.
- Use hand signals to alert motorists of your intentions when changing lanes and turning.
- Ride in a straight path. Do not weave in and out of parked or stopped vehicles.
- Ride a well-equipped bike with a headlight, taillight, bell, and rearview mirror.
- Use the travel lane farthest to the right unless you are turning left or passing another vehicle.
- Proceed with care through intersections and yield to pedestrians.
Motorists must respect the rights of other road users. Below is a list of driving tips:
- Cyclists have a right to the road. Be alert and patient.
- Cyclists are considered vehicles and should be given the appropriate right of way.
- Expect cyclists on the road at any time, especially on signed bike routes.
- Check your mirrors. Watch for pedestrians and cyclists.
- Don't honk your horn when approaching cyclists. You can startle the cyclist and cause a crash.
- Leave at least three feet of space between your car and a cyclist when passing.
- Stay behind a cyclist when you are turning right.
- Follow distracted driving laws; don't text message while your vehicle is in motion.
- Yield to pedestrians at crosswalks and intersections, paying special attention while driving on or around campus.
- Obey posted speed limits.

My 2007 MacBook Pro keeps receiving "you must restart you computer" screen upon start up
Do you have any free disk space available?
If you have backups, I suggest a clean install and then restore from backup. Make sure at least 1GB of space is always available so OS X can continue to operate normally.
If you can post a screenshot (or camera photo) of the message dialog that asks you to restart that might be helpful too. Just want to figure out whether it's OSX or a third party app.

i have 7gb available. the message wipes from the top and says "you must restart your computer" in 4 different languages.
and i guess i dont know what you mean by clean install cuz i cant boot from the install disk or a usb drive version of the install to even attempt it. please clarify

Press Option-Command-P-R until you hear startup sound a second time. Reset NVRAM Press Option during startup Start up in Startup Manager, where you can select an OS X volume to start from. Note: Press N to make the the first bootable Network volume appear as well. Press Eject, F12, or hold the mouse or trackpad button Ejects any removable media, such as an optical disc. Press N during startup Attempt to start up from a compatible network server (NetBoot). Press T during startup Start up in Target Disk Mode. Press Shift during startup Start up in Safe Boot mode and temporarily disable login items. Press Command-V during startup Start up in Verbose mode.

does anyone know whether i should take this in to be fixed or have any idea what is causing the problem.
it seems to happen whenever i watch videos. the computer does get extremely hot while watching. Could the hardware be damaged by the heat? somebody throw me a bone.

I would still recommend a clean install.
If after the clean install it still hangs, then it's a hardware issue and you would have to take it to Apple.

now when i try to start it, there is no tone and the screen is black. i did remove the ram memory in an attempt to clean any dust that may be in the internal part of the computer. the ram memory was after market upgrade i havent had a problem with but research suggests that maybe the 3rd party ram may cause a problem in this case.

If it was working up until now, then it might just have failed.
If you have two memory modules, leave one in and try to boot. Then try the other one instead. If it doesn't boot with either of them, then you need to buy memory.

I did what you said with the RAM memory. Now I'm back to square one with the computer booting up to the screen that states you must restart your computer. I tried rebooting from the install disc and finally started a clean reinstall, Only to have the computer freeze during installation. Running a hard drive check showed that the hard drive was okay still. Any other thoughts?

An article in Professional Pensions reports that the Department for Work and Pensions has clarified the law relating to maternity leave.
For a member of staff who is on ordinary maternity leave, their employer is required to continue to contribute pension contributions based on their full salary and not the actual pay that the member of staff is receiving.
Where the member of staff takes additional maternity leave, then for the first 13 weeks the employer should continue to pay the full level of contributions.
For the remaining 13 weeks, if the employer pays the member of staff a salary then they are also required to contribute to the scheme, if it is unpaid leave then there is no requirement to contribute.

The periods are a giveaway. The more I watch ABC's lighter-than-helium super-spy romp Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., which was just picked up to no one's surprise for a full season, the more I feel thrust back to a different time, a simpler and brighter time when organizations like U.N.C.L.E. (as in, The Man From ...) held sway on TV, fighting its evil counterpart T.H.R.U.S.H. — or given the hokey jokiness of S.H.I.E.L.D., maybe a better parallel is Get Smart and KAOS (which I'm not sure used periods, though maybe should have). I'm not what you'd call a comics maven, so I can't help it that I giggled every time the word "Gravitonium" was uttered in last week's episode. Things get a tad more serious this week (Tuesday, 8/7c) when the team comes across a former S.H.I.E.L.D. agent who's apparently gone rogue — but as the episode's title ("Eye Spy") suggests, you can't always believe your (or someone else's) eyes.

About Wallwritings
James M. Wall is currently a Contributing Editor of The Christian Century magazine, based in Chicago, Illinois. From 1972 through 1999, he was editor and publisher of the Christian Century magazine. Jim launched this new personal blog April 24, 2008.
If you would like to receive Wall Writings alerts when new postings are added to this site, send a note, saying, Please Add Me, to email@example.com
Journalism was Jim's undergraduate college major at Emory University, Atlanta, Georgia. He has earned two MA degrees, one from Emory, and one from the University of Chicago, both in religion.
He is an ordained United Methodist clergy person.
He and his wife, Mary Eleanor, are the parents of three sons, and the grandparents of four grandchildren. They live in Elmhurst, Illinois.
Jim served for two years on active duty in the US Air Force, and three additional years in the USAF (inactive) reserve. While serving with the Alaskan Command, he reached the rank of first lieutenant.
He has worked as a sports writer for both the Atlanta Journal and Constitution, was editor of the United Methodist magazine, Christian Advocate for ten years, and editor and publisher of the Christian Century magazine for 27 years, starting in 1972.
Time magazine wrote about the new editor, who arrived at the Christian Century determined to turn the magazine into a hard-hitting news publication.
Time concluded its essay with this summary of what the editor had planned for the future.
He sees the mainstream churches at least as often foolish as they are wise. He believes that the Century, and liberal Protestants generally, must shift from pious approval of their churches to a more realistic and vigorous appraisal. Concludes Wall: "What we have to say about the church and the world will be gutsy and robust."
The inspiration for Wall Writings comes from that mindset and from many other sources that have influenced Jim's writings over the years, including politics, cinema, media, American culture, and the political struggles in the Middle East.
He has made more than 20 trips to that region as a journalist, during which he covered such events as Anwar Sadat's 1977 trip to Jerusalem, and the 2006 Palestinian legislative election. He has interviewed, and written about, journalists, religious leaders, political leaders and private citizens in the region.
Wall Writings deals with all of these topics, and others, as they emerge, from within an understanding of the ambiguity of the human condition as perceived from a religious perspective.
Wall Writings was initially used by Jim as the title of his column in the Georgia Tech Technique, when he served as sports editor of that publication.
He often finds inspiration from cinema and from music and lyrics from songs, like this one, "Sound of Silence":
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon God they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning,
In the words that it was forming.
And the signs said, the words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls.
And whispered in the sounds of silence.
This song addressed the uneasy mood that permeated a rebellious period, the 1960s, a mood chronicled in Director Mike Nichols' film, The Graduate.
"The words of the prophets" come to us from different places, like subway walls, tenement halls, poetry, movies, novels, and surprise gifts of grace that break through the mists of secular creativity.
Such a moment comes to us when first we encounter the deadpan expression of Dustin Hoffman, as Benjamin, a recent college graduate, who has returned to his stultifying suburban home. At a family party, the most important advice a friend of his father's can give him is "plastics". The only meaning Benjamin can expect in a godless universe is to be found in a successful career that gives him a home in the suburbs with a swimming pool out back.
Read the signs wherever you can find them, and then act upon them.
Comments Are Not Free
Desert Peace, an excellent website, has posted guidelines for the Comment section of its site.
The guidelines set tough standards. 99 percent of the comments I receive are well within these guidelines, but I have discovered over the past two years, that the occasional comment will arrive that I do not wish to post.
So, for the record, here is my set of guidelines adapted from Desert Peace.
All comments that fail to meet these standards will not be posted. Here are my standards:

Loved the Silverman piece.
Thanks for posting your background and inspiration for your website, etc. and mining the omissions of mainstream media and shining (with your keen insight) needed light, making us more aware. I'm grateful!
Hey – whats up. Thanks for the blog. I've been digging around looking some info up for school, but there is so much out there. Yahoo lead me here – good for you i suppose! Keep up the great information. I will be coming back over here in a few days to see if there is any more info.
Good review of Bacevich's anti war book. Was reminded of the famous
Commanding Heights doctrine of the Right which included command of space as the ultimate high ground from which to maintain US dominance. Also would note the corrosive effect of fear as a partner in perpetual war. Lowers our valuing level to primitive survival mode and makes rational decisions about our role in the world politically difficult.Maskell
I am so delighted we have found you via this website. Knowing you personally and enjoying your comments has been enriching. We have been inspired by your thorough research and insight and appreciate your wallwritings tremendously. -
You may want to know … the link to the Simon and Garfunkel video is broken. Perhaps it could be replaced, with another?
Jim Wall responds: Thank you, Ronald, for letting he know this. I have taken down the old version and replaced it with the Central Park performance. Have a look and listen.

Bailey half century rescues the Tigers
George Bailey scored a quick fire half century to help the Tasmanian Tigers reach 170-7 against the Retravision Warriors at the Bellerive Oval in Hobart. The Tigers skipper came to the crease with his side in trouble after losing two early wickets thanks to a double strike from Sajid Mahmood which left the home side 39-2. Bailey wasted little time at the crease as he smashed a 29 ball half century which included two massive sixes over midwicket, the second of which sailed out of the ground. Having completed his 5th KFC t20 Big Bash half century Bailey (54) was bowled by Michael Swart after the batsman tried to reverse sweep the spinner to bring to an end his 3rd wicket partnership of 73 with Mark Cosgrove. Having won the toss the Tigers got off to a slow start scoring just 10 runs from the first 11 deliveries before Jonathan Wells (0) was caught by Luke Pomersbach at mid off to give Mahmood the early break through. The pressure continued to mount as the home side were unable to find the boundary until the 5th over when Mark Cosgrove dispatched Mick Lewis for 4 fours during the 5th over much to the relief of the home fans. Cowan (8) made it 5 consecutive boundaries at the start of the next over but that run was brought to an end by Mahmood who dismissed Cowan with his next delivery to leave the Tigers 39-2. Despite the early loss the Tigers managed to recover thanks to Bailey and Cosgrove whos 3rd wicket partnership of 73 brought the home side back into the game before Baileys dismissal in the 13th over. Cosgrove (49) quickly followed falling one short of a well deserved half century but Travis Brit (25), Ryan ten Doeschate (12) and Jason Krejza (14) made sure the Warriors would have a tough run chase to book their place in the preliminary final. |

Underwood Praise For Andrews (Photo Courtest Of TasteofCountry.com / February 21, 2013) |
Carrie Underwood has found a new way to spread music to fans, as she will be playing the iconic "Maria Von Trapp," in NBC's live broadcast of The Sound of Music. Julie Andrews played the legendary role in the famous 1965 film, and she is someone Carrie idolized at a young age. Carrie has yet to meet Julie, but she hopes to take what she has learned from her, and create her own vision of the character. "At some point I would love to meet her, just because she is someone I grew up watching and listening too. But, no one can touch her, I am not her and I will never be her. She holds such an iconic place in so many people's hearts. I think it is really important for me to read the script, watch other musicals and kind of get into the whole musical space verses the movie space – which she was so wonderful in." In a recent interview with the Wall Street Journal, Julie says she will "endorse everything" about The Sound of Music broadcast, and "would love to know Carrie!" The three-hour live remake of The Sound of Music will air in late 2013 on NBC.

In some ways, it is inappropriate to deal with strategies concerned with wellbeing in a separate section. This is because it is vital that the wellbeing of children who have visual impairment and autism is central to all practice. However, there are strategies concerning wellbeing that would not fit well into any other section. We are therefore presenting them in this section dedicated to Promoting wellbeing.
