Scott Anderson's double life on TV & Chicago stage
For most of people, filming yourself in underwear and posting the finished product on YouTube is never a good idea. But for Chicago-based actor Scott Anderson, who'd set aside his performance career for a "real" job, it landed him a starring role on "Reality Show," a new Showtime dark comedy created by and co-starring Chicago native Adam Rifkin.

|Charge Density, Droplet Size, Electrostatic Spray, Joint Distribution
A theoretical model to predict the joint distribution of droplet size and charge density for an electrostatic spray is described based on the maximum entropy method. From known values of the electrostatic spray parameters, the model is used to evaluate the joint distribution of droplet size and charge density for a cone-jet mode electrostatic spray. The predicted results of present model show that it has generally a relatively narrow distribution for both droplet and charge density in a cone-jet mode. Comparatively, the droplet size distribution is narrower than that of the charge density. In addition the two distributions are significantly different in shape. The droplet size distribution is nearly symmetric about its peak position, whilst the left side of the charge density distribution curve is noticeably steeper than the right side. The results are also compared with existing experimental data with agreement considering the uncertainties in the data.

"You're not my prisoner."
Unfortunately, that's exactly how she felt, trapped in Zach Keller's remote castle. The handsome millionaire was supposed to be her protector, but under his watchful gaze she felt more exposed than ever. It didn't help that he evaded all personal questions--and insisted that for her safety, they must marry.
She had to find a way off Zach's property, or at least a reason to deny his proposal. Because she was on the verge of saying yes to whatever Zach demanded--especially if it meant a wedding night neither of them would ever forget.

A minimum wage is the lowest wage that employers may legally pay
to workers. The first minimum wage law was enacted in 1894
in New Zealand.
With the passage of The
Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 (FLSA), the U.S. minimum
wage was initially set at $0.25 per hour for covered
workers. Since then, it has been raised 22 separate
times–most recently, in July 2009, to $7.25 an hour.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention produce data on
health and healthcare in the United States. Health, United

The U.S.D.A.'s Economic Research Service monitors the extent and
severity of food insecurity in U.S. households through a
supplement to the Current Population Survey. Responses to a
series of 18 questions are used to determine whether a household
is food insecure.
According to data from the Census Bureau, in 2012
The official poverty statistics do not track individuals or
households over time so there are no official data on poverty
Despite the lack of official data, other surveys do provide the
ability to track poverty status over time. Two recent studies
have used differing data sources and methods to provide some
insight into the characteristics of poverty spells.
The Census Bureau has used monthly data from the Survey of Income
and Program Participation to look at poverty entry and
exit in the period 2009-2012.
In 2013, 75.9 million workers (or 59% of all wage and salary
workers) in the United States age 16 and over were paid hourly
wages. Among those 1.5 million workers earned exactly the
prevailing federal minimum wage of $7.25 per hour.
Another 1.8 million had wages below the federal
minimum. Together these workers make up 4% of all hourly
paid workers.
In 2012, the overall poverty rate was 14.5%. Poverty rates
by disability status* in the United States ranged from 12% to
In 2010, 15% of people lived in poverty. Poverty is not
evenly distributed across neighborhoods and every state has
neighborhoods with higher than average poverty rates.
The majority of the people who live below the poverty level do
not work.
In 2012, 46.5 million people were poor. According to data
from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, only 10.6 million or 23% of
the poor were "working poor."
In 2011, almost 1 in 5 households included an "additional adult"
— someone who was not the householder, the householder's spouse
or cohabiting partner.
In 2013, the overall poverty rate in the United States was
14.5%. The rates for racial and ethnic
subgroups ranged from 10% to 27%.
In 2013, the poverty rate for children under 18 was 20%.
Children under 18 represented 32% of the poor.

While taking my riverbank walk after work tonite. I spotted a rarity for this area. 3 Female Bufflehead ducks. they stuck together and dove to forage for food alternately. As these are diving ducks they stayed out in the main channel of the river and I didn't get a real good close shot of them as they paddled about in search of food.

Southeast Division Police Station is located at 104 Youville Dr. East. Superintendent David Veitch, Inspector Dean Hilton, and the rest of the team work with the citizens of Southeast Edmonton and provide quality customer service. Southeast Division was created April 29, 2007 after a realignment of Divisional borders and is comprised of over 40 neighbourhoods. There is also a community police station located in Ottewell at 9807-71 St.
Working in the community
Southeast Division has over 150 sworn and civilian members working in the community. There are four districts in the Division, each with one Sergeant and a Community Liaison Constable. All four of these constables work side by side with the stakeholders in their communities to coordinate police and community resources to achieve a common goal. Southeast Division is partnered with probation and parole officers who are situated within the division.
Two constables are assigned to the Southeast Division Foot Patrol. These two constables are highly visible in the areas of Mill Creek Ravine, Bonnie Doon, Idylwylde, and King Edward Park. A problem-solving approach is used in response to identified intelligence-based priorities in this geographic area. They coordinate strategies of enforcing municipal, provincial, and federal laws for the purpose of maintaining social order, keeping the peace and preventing crime.
Southeast Division's Neighbourhood Empowerment Team (N.E.T.) is located in Bonnie Doon. N.E.T. is made up of one constable and one Community Capacity Builder. N.E.T.'s primary focus is to identify social disorder and family distress issues. They work with service providers and community groups to find solutions which improve these conditions.
Southeast Division has a highly-motivated Traffic Section that is dedicated to enforcing the rules of the road within the division. The Traffic Section is assigned to monitor high traffic areas on a daily basis and key in on specific traffic issues as they arise.
Southeast Division operates with the assistance of numerous volunteers who help citizens at the front counter of the police stations, support citizens through Victim Services, and actively participate in organized community patrols.

This brief section focuses on the topic of sports, physical fitness and activity, and leisurely activities. Among the resources that are included are resources on camping and girls with disabilities, body images of female wheelchair athletes, and the affect of informal care on leisure.
Anderson, D. (2009). Adolescent girls' involvement in disability sport: Implications for identity development.
Journal of Sport & Social Issues, 33
(4), 427-449.
The social institution of sport reflects a society that presupposes the values, mores, norms, and standards of the majority and subsequently determines who can participate in sport and who can be identified as an athlete. Recognizing the growing importance of disability sport to people with disabilities, the purpose of this study was to use the construct of symbolic interactionism to examine the identity development of adolescent girls with physical disabilities who participate in organized wheelchair sports with a specific focus on athletic identity development. An understanding of how the girls' interaction with various socializing agents through a wheelchair sport program to develop an athletic identity was developed through interviews. Results are presented utilizing Keliber's framework for identity development through leisure participation, including sport.
Anderson, D. M., Wozencroft, A., & Bedini, L. A. (2008). Adolescent girls' involvement in disability sport: A comparison of social support mechanisms.
Journal of Leisure Research, 40
(2), 183-207.
Women and girls with disabilities are historically disenfranchised from physical recreation due to the "double whammy" of being female and having a disability. The literature suggests that challenges to participation likely include lack of social support for girls with disabilities to participate in sport. Therefore, the purpose of the study was to examine differences in social support received by girls with disabilities who did and did not participate in organized wheelchair sport programs. In addition, the relationship between social support and outcomes tied to wheelchair sport participation were investigated. Data were collected using semi-structured interviews and analyzed using constant comparison techniques. Utilizing a model of social support as a framework, the findings illustrate multiple differences in social support mechanisms for girls who are and who are not involved in wheelchair sport programs.

Motherhood revisited?: Recurring roles of family caregivers and their relationship to leisure.
Paper presented at The 1995 Leisure Research Symposium, San Antonio, TX.
Research about understanding the leisure of women, particularly those in unique family and social roles such as mothers or single parents, is growing. Women who pursue the less defined roles of informal (unpaid) family caregivers for older adult members, however, are an under-researched group…. The purpose of this study was to examine the leisure of women who are informal family caregivers for older adult members from a life span/life stage perspective. Specifically, the responsibilities inherent in caregiving for an older family member were addressed regarding the concept of recurring roles and their impact on leisure.
Bedini, L. A., Henderson, K. A. (1994). Women with disabilities and the challenges to leisure service providers.
Journal of Park and Recreation Administration, 12
(1), 17-34.
The purpose of the study was to explore the lives of women with disabilities to ascertain the implications for parks, recreation and leisure providers. In-depth qualitative interviews were used to encourage women with disabilities to talk about their lives and the meanings of leisure. Symbolic interaction provided the framework for conducting this study. A theoretical sampling technique was used to interview 30 women in the USA with varying physical disabilities. For these women, experiencing leisure and participating in recreational activities appeared to be highly dependent on the internal meanings of leisure as well as on the external social responsiveness of their communities. Although leisure service providers cannot necessarily address the internal, personal components that may prevent women with disabilities from participating in leisure services, they can undertake socially responsive initiatives to make external components in the environment more accessible, psychologically and socially comfortable, and available for both females and males with disabilities.

Research Quarterly for Exercise & Sport, 70
(3), 303-312.
This study examined the experiences of women with physical disabilities in the sport and physical fitness domain. Participants were 16 women, aged between 19 and 54 years, with a range of disabilities, who took part in recreational programs designed to impact several aspects of their lives. Results revealed that participation in physical activities tended to be fitness--rather than sport-related; the reasons for participation consisted of the wish to maintain body functionality, social factors, and psychological factors; the main outcome of participation consisted of the intrinsic gains for individuals; and there was a perception of a difference between the sport and physical fitness activity experiences of men and women with disabilities.
Depauw, K. P. (1999). Girls and women with disabilities in sport.
Journal of Physical Education, Recreation & Dance, 70
(4), 50 - 52; 61.
"It is a little-known fact that the history of girls and women with disabilities in competitive sport dates back to the early 1900s and has continued to evolve throughout the 20th century. For the most part, this history is somewhat difficult to trace separately from the general history of disability sport, which has been, until recently, nonspecific in terms of gender, race, ethnicity, and type of impairment…. In much the same way that the history of sport has been written primarily through the eyes of male athletes and their sport experiences, the history of disability sport has also been recorded through the eyes of male athletes with disabilities, or more specifically, through the experiences of white males with spinal cord injuries who used wheelchairs for competition…."

Health Care for Women International, 28
(1), 47-68.
This qualitative study explored the unique ways in which caregiving and leisure are conceptualized and mediated among diverse groups of female caregivers (n = 98) in the province of Nova Scotia, Canada. Data were obtained through 17 focus group discussions between March and June of 2002. Findings reveal that the contexts within which caregivers experience the health effects of caregiving create meanings, opportunities, and challenges for leisure. This study of diverse caregiving experiences fills a significant gap in the existing literature by integrating considerations of subjectivity and the ways in which caregiving influences women's perceptions and engagement in leisure pursuits. Constructivism guides the interpretive framework upon which the data were analyzed; results inform recommendations relative to policy and program audiences associated with unpaid caregiving.

(1), 3-20.
Although leisure is held to provide positive health benefits, structural and social obstacles deny equal participation to the disenfranchised. Employing quantitative and unique qualitative (e.g., Photovoice) methods, we examined the leisure behaviors of older women who were living in the United States and diagnosed with HIV/AIDS. Findings pointed to differences in time for, access to, and meaning of leisure in pre- vs. post-infection leisure for these women. As the disease progressed, however, each woman exhibited resilience in transcending systemic barriers to derive a spiritual view of leisure as a metaphor for the meaning of life. We believe our findings of spiritual transcendence will resonate among people living with HIV/AIDS throughout both Western and non-Western cultures.
Guthrie, S. R. (1999, November). Managing imperfection in a perfectionistic culture: Physical activity and disability management among women with disabilities. In Social justice and diversity [Feature issue].
Quest, 51
(4), 369-381.
The purpose of this qualitative study was to describe: (a) the relationship between a woman's ability to manage (i.e., cope or come to terms with) her disability via regular physical activity and her perceptions of physical and psychological empowerment, and (b) the ways women manage their disabilities, in particular, how they used physical activity in the management process. In-depth interviews were conducted with 37 women who had chronic illness and physical mobility disabilities. Findings suggested a relationship between disability management via physical activity and empowerment (psychological or physical) among the women of this sample. They also indicated three different management approaches: (a) management by minimizing the significance of the body, (b) management by normalization of the body, and (c) management by optimizing mind-body functioning. The implications of these findings for sport and society are discussed.
Hardin, M. (2007, Spring). "I consider myself an empowered woman": The interaction of sport, gender and disability in the lives of wheelchair basketball players.
Women in Sports & Physical Activity Journal, 16
(1), 39-53.
This research, involving interviews with elite female wheelchair basketball players, explores how gender and disability intersect in the lives of these athletes. Interviews revealed the integral role athletic identity plays to offset the stigma of disability in their self-identities and in the complex relationships each has with social norms in regard to gender, disability, sport and the body. However, social institutions, including that of adapted sport, reinforce an ableist, sexist ideology that persistently marginalizes these athletes.
Hardin, M., & Hardin, B. (2005, Fall). Performance or participation…Pluralism or hegemony? Images of disability & gender in
Sports 'n Spokes
Disability Studies Quarterly, 25
The purpose of this study is to examine the photographic images of Sports 'n Spokes magazine to explore the relationship between sport, disability and gender. Photographs in 24 issues of Sports 'n Spokes were collected and examined via content analysis. A recording instrument was developed by the researchers to code 2,141 editorial images. The instrument was adapted for use with images of disability and the categorical variables were: (a) gender of the subject; (b) disability; (c) type of sport participation; (d) competition in sport; (e) motion; and (f) camera angle. The findings indicate that men dominated photographic coverage in Sports 'n Spokes and were more likely to be depicted in dominant photos and as sports competitors than women. Women were more often depicted as non-sporting, and women were depicted less often as competitors. However, the magazine includes women to a much greater degree than mainstream (able-bodied) sports magazines. The magazine also reflects pleasure/participation (versus power/performance) as a valid sporting value.
Hardin, M., Lynn, S., & Walsdorf, K. (2006, Spring). Depicting the sporting body: The intersection of gender, race and disability in women's sport/fitness magazines.
Journal of Magazine and New Media Research, 8
(1), 1-16. Retrieved August 5, 2007 from
This research examines the relationship between images of sport, disability, gender and race in four U.S. women's sport/fitness magazines. According to a view of feminism that sees it as addressing all oppressions, these magazines should provide an empowering space for all women, including women with a disability. Rejection of ableism signifies a rejection of the male body standard in sport, serving feminist goals. This study finds that fitness and sport magazines for women, by failing to include athletes with a disability, have also failed to break free from a male/ableist hegemonic body standard. Non-white women with a disability are almost invisible, emphasizing an ableist emphasis on sexual difference. However, it could be that the more each magazine rejects the boundaries of male hegemony, the more likely it is to partially reject ableism by including disability images.

Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, 66
(2), 151-162.
There have been many studies on disabilities that afflict women. However, many of these studies concentrated on women's work and home responsibilities, failing to address issues concerning non-work or recreation. Moreover, male athletes were the focus of the few studies on adult athletes with disabilities. To remedy this problem, the meanings of physical activities for women with disabilities and the incorporation of these meanings into physical activities designed for this particular group are investigated.

Journal of Leisurability, 24
(1). Retrieved March 1, 2005 from
"As an under-researched group of individuals, women with disabilities represent a unique population. As Wendell (1989) noted, women with disabilities are female in a male dominated world and disabled in a world dominated by able bodied people. They may face a "double whammy" in being female and having a disability (Doucette, 1992; Traustadottir, 1992), but they also may find that "double whammy" to represent empowerment as well as constraints (Morris, 1991). Because disability studies have traditionally ignored gender when examining the lives of people with disabilities, the influence of gender in the lives of women and men has typically not been explored (Traustadottir, 1992). Therefore, this study focused specifically on how gender, disability, and leisure intersected in women's lives to result in empowerment as well as constraints."
Lovell, T. A., Dattilo, J., & Jekubovich, N. J. (1996). Effects of leisure education on women aging with disabilities.
Activities, Adaptation & Aging, 21
(2), 37-58.
Adults aging with disabilities sometimes require intensive rehabilitation treatment to facilitate recovery from or adjustment to a disability. An investigation including twelve women aging with disabilities was conducted utilizing qualitative and quantitative methods. All participants had been admitted to a skilled nursing facility for acute or chronic illnesses. Information about participants' perceptions of leisure, control, and freedom were obtained through interviews and the administration of components of the Leisure Diagnostic Battery (LDB). Participant responses were examined for differences and similarities based on their group assignment. Six participants received a leisure education program and six participants did not. Four themes emerged as a result of analysis of the information collected through interviews. Participants reported (a) a changing leisure repertoire, (b) a requirement to make decisions, (c) a desire for control, and (d) the importance of personal goals. Findings from the LDB were inconclusive, although an increase in scores for the leisure education (LED) group on the Barriers to Leisure Involvement Scale may indicate a greater awareness of barriers as a result of the leisure education intervention. Overall, results indicated that leisure education may be a useful intervention for increasing the perception of control and the development of goals by some women aging with physical disabilities.

Fibromyalgia (FMS) is a chronic pain syndrome of unknown origin that lacks standardized treatment. However, participation in physical activity (PA) benefits people with FMS. Despite the psychosocial and health benefits that can be gained through PA, the correlates of PA among people with FMS remain poorly understood.
The purpose of this study was to identify and compare the effects of cross-sectional and longitudinal correlates of PA among women with FMS.
Participants were 187 female members of a HMO with a confirmed diagnosis of FMS. They were administered a battery of questionnaires assessing potential correlates of PA. These correlates were suggested by social cognitive theory and the transtheoretical model, and have been repeatedly associated with PA among the general population.
Multivariate analyses indicated that self-efficacy for PA and the behavioral processes of change were the strongest discriminators among PA adopters, maintainers, quitters, and those who were sedentary. Enjoyment of PA, barriers to PA, the impact of FMS, and the environment also significantly discriminated among these groups. Longitudinally, changes in self-efficacy were significantly associated with changes in PA.
These findings suggest that self-efficacy may play a critical role in both the present and long-term PA of women with FMS. They also lend additional support to the role of social cognitive and transtheoretical variables in discriminating among levels of PA.

Artworks, collective experience, and claims for social justice: the case of women living with breast cancer.
Paper presented at the annual meeting of the All Academic Inc., Montreal Convention Center, Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Available:
This paper discusses the role of 'artworks' produced by women with breast cancer in the context of breast cancer activism. We argue that such works play a key role in making visible and collective the ideological issues surrounding this disease. They do this through their potential for anchoring social practices relating to its treatment and what might be done about it (Klawiter 2004, Swidler 2001). The paper focuses upon the work of two women artists diagnosed with breast cancer – the British photographer Jo Spence, and Martha Hall, an American who made artist's books. We examine specific works from these collections, and the context of their production. In this way we show how and why artworks are important in establishing visual and discursive space related to social practices associated with disease regimes, and how they provide emancipatory potential for women living with breast cancer. This analysis enables criticism of both the functionalist position that sees artworks as outside the social context of illness (rather than constitutive of it), and the constructivist position that regards artworks as needing interpretation in order to bring them into being. Instead, we argue that artworks are already ideological, working through and on bodies to enable a redemptive and emancipatory potential. As mediators of representations of illness, they deserve attention from sociologists researching social movements, the sharing of illness experience and strategies for survival.
Reynolds, F. (2003). Conversations about creativity and chronic illness I: Textile artists coping with long-term health problems reflect on the origins of their interest in art.
Creativity Research Journal, 15
(4), 393-407.
This qualitative study explored the origins of interest in textile arts among a group of women living with long-term health problems. The part that illness played in motivating engagement in creative arts was of particular concern. Twenty-four women, between 29-72 years old, were interviewed. Most were hobbyists, but the sample included some publicly acclaimed textile artists. A minority had engaged in art continuously since their earlier years. Most of the women had discovered (or rediscovered) textile arts in middle and later life. Several factors facilitated this. The narratives indicated that the women's preexisting resilient personality, as well as extensive support structures, may have encouraged a reflective attitude and a problem-solving approach to living with illness. The experience of biographical disruption, stemming from the crisis of illness, dissatisfaction with unproductive time, and a growing need for self-fulfillment, appeared to create a search for a meaningful occupation. The discovery of textile art as a meaningful occupation (as opposed to other ways of living with illness) appeared to be encouraged by early role models, enjoyment of art at school, the discovery that adult personal and professional interests could be expressed through artwork, and chance events. Textile art at school appeared to provide a form of "cultural capital" for these women, who returned to this art medium and the skills learned earlier when crisis occurred. The findings indicate that a negative event such as illness may have life-enhancing effects. Rehabilitation specialists might focus more on the arts as a resource for adults living with illness.

(3), 118-127.
Article presents narrative accounts of women who used artistic occupation as a means of reconstructing a positive self and identity during chronic illness. In-depth interviews were conducted with the participants who engaged in textile arts (embroidery, appliqué, quilting, and mixed-media art). Analysis of the interviews revealed that the participants' engagement in creating art gradually contributed to a positive identity as a textile artist. Four main process of identity reconfiguration through artistic occupation were identified: (1) reconnection with the previous, pre-illness self; (2) positive personal identity growth and development; (3) a restored sense of expertise, status, and self-esteem; and (4) a socially validated identity.
Reynolds, F. (2004). Conversations about creativity and chronic illness II: Textile artists coping with long-term health problems reflect on the creative process.
Creativity Research Journal, 16
(1), 79-89.
This qualitative study explored the inspirations and influences that shape the creative process and artwork of a group of women with long-term illness. Most were nonprofessional artists. Almost all had taken courses in at least one form of textile art and had advanced skills. Although the creative process is not fully open to verbal self-analysis, the accounts revealed a wide range of inspiration for artwork. The sensual qualities of color and texture, themes from nature, precious memories, personal and professional interests, and spiritual beliefs all found expression in the women's designs and styles. A repertoire of techniques and a conducive physical environment were valued as enabling control over the creative process and the achievement of a meaningful personal style. Most of the women enjoyed the spontaneity, immersion, and adventure inherent in their creative process, and their descriptions approximated flow states described in other research. Some expressed experiences of illness through their artwork. Nevertheless, several participants reported that illness did not only inspire artwork through distress and loss, but through sharpening perceptions, heightening emotional sensitivity and confronting them with the deeper issues of life. The contribution of art-making to the self-management of chronic illness deserves further examination.

Disability and Rehabilitation, 25
(14), 785-794.
The purpose of this phenomenological enquiry was to explore the meanings and functions of art for a group of women living with disabling chronic illness. Participants were recruited on the basis that they considered artwork as central to their current well-being.
Thirty women were interviewed and five submitted written narratives. Interpretative phenomenological analysis was carried out.
About half of the participants had taken up their preferred artistic occupation since the onset of illness. Participants described their artwork as contributing to their health and well-being in many diverse ways. Art filled occupational voids, distracted thoughts away from illness, promoted the experience of flow and spontaneity, enabled the expression of grief, maintained a positive identity, and extended social networks. Its value was conceptualised by one participant as a 'lifestyle coat-hanger' organising numerous further roles and activities that gave purpose to life. Art was more than cathartic. It offered a versatile means of overcoming the restrictions imposed by illness on self and lifestyle, in many cases creating a more enriched lifestyle than before.
The findings may encourage professionals working in health and rehabilitation settings to assist clients in identifying meaningful, creative occupations that are feasible within the limits imposed by illness or injury.

Disability & Rehabilitation, 30
(17), 1279-1288.
To understand the meanings of art-making among a group of women living with the occupational constraints and stigma of CFS/ME. The study explored their initial motives for art-making, and then examined how art-making had subsequently influenced their subjective well-being.
Ten women with CFS/ME were interviewed; three provided lengthy written accounts to the interview questions.
Illness had resulted in devastating occupational and role loss. Participants took many years to make positive lifestyle changes. Art-making was typically discovered once participants had accepted the long-term nature of CFS/ME, accommodated to illness, and reprioritized occupations. Several factors then attracted participants specifically to art-making. It was perceived as manageable within the constraints of ill-health. Participants also tended to be familiar with craft skills; had family members interested in arts and crafts, and some desired a means to express grief and loss. Once established as a leisure activity, art-making increased subjective well-being mainly through providing increased satisfaction in daily life, positive self-image, hope, and contact with the outside world. Participants recommended provision of occupational/recreational counselling earlier in the illness trajectory.
Creative art-making occurred as part of a broader acceptance and adjustment process to CFS/ME, and allowed some psychological escape from a circumscribed lifeworld.

Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, 81
(2) 182-188.
To examine what factors African American women with one or more physical disabilities perceive as barriers to exercise and how they rank them.
Study Design:
Data were collected through telephone interview using a newly developed instrument (Barriers to Physical Exercise and Disability [B-PED]) that addressed issues related to physical activity and the subjects' disability.
Fifty subjects were asked questions about their participation and interest in structured exercise.
The four major barriers were cost of the exercise program (84.2%), lack of energy (65.8%), transportation (60.5%), and not knowing where to exercise (57.9%). Barriers commonly reported in nondisabled persons (e.g., lack of time, boredom, too lazy) were not observed in our sample. Only 11% of the subjects reported that they were not interested in starting an exercise program. The majority of subjects (81.5%) wanted to join an exercise program but were restricted by the barriers reported.
African American women with a physical disability are interested in becoming more active but are limited in doing so because of their inability to overcome several barriers to increased physical activity participation.

Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 31
(4), 613-618.
The purpose of this study was to survey the exercise and activity patterns of African-American women with severe physical disabilities (N = 50).
The Physical Activity and Disability Survey (PADS) was created for subjects who have a severe limitation in movement and function (e.g., limited ability to stand or walk, needs an assistive aid to ambulate, needs assistance with activities of daily living). Reliability data were obtained on the PADS for interrater, test-retest, and internal consistency on the two subscales (Exercise and Activity). The Exercise subscale had an interrater reliability of 0.83 and test/retest reliability of 0.85. The Activity subscale had an interrater reliability of 0.68 and test/retest reliability of 0.66. Cronbach's alpha for internal consistency was 0.78 for the Exercise subscale and 0.68 for the Activity subscale.
Results showed very low levels of exercise and general activity patterns in African-American women with physical disabilities. Only 8.2% of the sample participated in leisure-time physical activity, and only 10% engaged in aerobic exercise three or more days per week for at least 15 min. Unstructured physical activity (e.g., work-related activity, housework, gardening, shopping) was nearly absent.
Our data suggest that the extremely low levels of self-reported physical activity in African-American women with severe physical disabilities expose them to a higher risk of secondary health conditions.

Journal of Leisure Research, 38
(3), 421-444.
The sources of people's leisure interests have been a topic of interest for many years. Many of the attitudes people develop towards leisure are the result of social learning and social agents. However, the leisure socialization process can be different for people with disabilities in that many of their social agents may be unaware of the leisure opportunities available to those with disabilities. The purpose of the study was to examine the socialization process of women with physical disabilities into elite wheelchair basketball. The study was guided by the social learning paradigm (Kenyon & McPherson, 1973). Face-to-face interviews were conducted with women who were members of the USA National Wheelchair Basketball Team. Major themes found in the research included that multiple agents can be influential in the socialization process, peers with disabilities are often considered important socializing agents, and agents and agencies often coexist in socializing roles. Another noteworthy finding was that many of the women indicated their social agents' unfamiliarity with disability sports, and the ramifications this had on their lives.
Sands, R. T., & Wettenhall, R. S. (2000, December). Female wheelchair athletes and changes to body image.
International Journal of Disability, Development and Education, 47
(4), 413-426.
This paper examined the effect of a psychological intervention program on attitudes to body image of female wheelchair athletes. A single case, multiple-baseline study was employed to examine the presentation of a brief, six session, cognitive behavioural intervention program on six National female wheelchair basketball players over a period of six weeks. Initially the six wheelchair athletes' satisfaction levels were compared to 20 able-bodied basketball players on four measures: the Physical Self-Perception Profile, Multi-Dimensional Body Image Scale, Social Physique Anxiety Questionnaire, and the Body Parts Questionnaire. Results indicated that as a result of the cognitive behavioural intervention program, physical self-perception increased for the wheelchair athletes and for 50% of the wheelchair athletes on the multi-dimensional components of body image, using the non-parametric split-middle technique. Further analysis revealed a significant effect of self-perceived competence across time indicating post-hoc significant differences between baseline data and Week 6 of the intervention program. With reference to caution due to the nature of case study research, it is asserted that this study shows promise for improving various aspects of body image satisfaction by means of a cognitive-behavioural approach and has potential for wheelchair athletes and other special populations.
Santiago, M. C., & Coyle, C. P. (2004, April). Leisure-time physical activity and secondary conditions in women with physical disabilities.
Disability & Rehabilitation, 26
(8), 485-494.
To examine the relationship between secondary conditions and leisure-time physical activity participation (LTPA) in women with physical disabilities.
A survey was conducted in a metropolitan urban USA area of women (n = 170) with physical disabilities including MS, CP, polio, arthritis, TBI, and CVA among others and aged 21-65 years. Outcome measures were LTPA, secondary conditions (numbers and severity), and functional status.
Respondents experienced 11.99 ( ± 6.05) secondary conditions in the past year, self-rated their severity as 'moderate problems', and reported moderate levels of functional impairment. LTPA participation (excluding calisthenics/exercise) was reported to be 2.90 (± 5.12) times/week with 39.4% reporting no participation. After controlling for the interaction between severity of secondary conditions and functional status, the secondary conditions of physical deconditioning and isolation were significantly and inversely related to LTPA participation (r = - 0.164, p = 0.036; r = - 0.156, p = 0.045, respectively).
Reported secondary conditions of physical deconditioning and isolation are inversely related to the ability of moderately impaired women with physical disabilities to participate in LTPA when functional status was controlled and should be considered in efforts to increase involvement in this health promoting behaviour.

Journal of Leisure Research, 37
(2), 195-213.
Breast cancer is a life threatening illness experienced by many women. Although research is being conducted in various disciplines, the effect of breast cancer on the role of leisure throughout the illness experience has not been considered. The purpose of this study was to understand in what ways a breast cancer diagnosis and treatment alters women's experience and choice of leisure activities post-treatment. Eight women with breast cancer experiences participated. The findings indicated women's leisure changed by their making leisure a priority, seeking more meaningful leisure, and engaging in health promoting leisure. The research has implications for furthering our understanding of leisure entitlement, purposive leisure, and the ethic of care.
Sherrill, C. (1993, September 30). Women with disability, Paralympics, and reasoned action contact theory.
Women in Sport & Physical Activity Journal, 2
(2), 51-60.
The underrepresentation of women in the Paralympics movement warrants attention as the world prepares for Atlanta 1996, when Paralympics (conducted after the Summer Olympics) will attract approximately 3,500 athletes with physical disability or visual impairment from 102 countries. Barriers that confront women with disability, the Paralympic movement, and adapted physical activity as a profession and scholarly discipline that stresses advocacy and attitude theories are presented. Two theories (reasoned action and contact) that have been tested in various contexts are woven together as an approach particularly applicable to women in sport and feminists who care about equal access to opportunity for all women. Women with disability are a social minority that is both ignored and oppressed. Sport and feminist theory and action should include disability along with gender, race/ethnicity, class, and age as concerns and issues.

Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 34
(6), 905-912.
Physical activity is strongly recommended as a principal component of coronary heart disease (CHD) risk factor management aimed at favorably lowering abdominal fat accumulation, lowering levels of triglyceride (TG), raising levels of high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C), and improving insulin sensitivity. Although physical activity practices are reported to be low in women with multiple sclerosis (MS), some women with MS remain physically active despite their disability. Thus, the primary aim of the study was to determine whether abdominal fat accumulation and levels of TG, HDL-C, and glucose differ between active and inactive women with MS.
The study sample consisted of 123 women with MS, aged 23-72 yr. Venous blood was collected for measurement of lipids, lipoprotein-cholesterol, and glucose. Skin-fold thicknesses and girth circumferences were obtained for estimation of total and abdominal body fat. Leisure-time physical activity (LTPA) during the last 12 months was assessed by the physical activity questionnaire used in the Postmenopausal Estrogens/Progestins Intervention (PEPI) Study. Eating habits were assessed by the Block Food Frequency Questionnaire. Results: LTPA was significantly associated with lower waist circumference (P = 0.0001), lower TG levels (P = 0.0005), and lower glucose levels (0.002). After adjusting for several covariates, women participating in low- to moderate-intensity LTPA had significantly lower waist circumferences, TG levels, and glucose levels relative to inactive women.
Low- to moderate-intensity LTPA was significantly associated with less abdominal fat accumulation, lower levels of TG, and lower levels of glucose in the present sample of women with MS. These findings suggest that exercise levels attainable by women with MS may improve CHD risk and contribute to important health-related benefits.

Journal of Sports Sciences, 22
(7), 668-675.
The functional classification system for wheelchair basketball is based on an analysis of the players' functional resources through field-testing and game observation. Under this system, players are assigned a score of 1 to 4.5. The aim of this study was to determine if the wheelchair basketball player classification system reflects the existing differences in performance of elite female players. During the World Championship for Wheelchair Basketball in Sydney 1998, eight teams were videotaped for three 40-min games for a total of 120 min per team. Fifty-nine female players (Class I [1 and 1.5 points]
= 12; Class II [2 and 2.5 points]
= 20; Class III [3 and 3.5 points]
= 13; Class IV [4 and 4.5 points]
= 14) were retained for a detailed performance analysis by means of the Comprehensive Basketball Grading System (CBGS). Two-way analysis of variance showed high point players to perform better compared with low point players for the majority of variables determining the quality of game performance. A lack of significant differences between two adjacent classes was explained on the basis of the methodological approach, the class-position relationship in this sample, and the performance level of women's wheelchair basketball. We conclude that the performance of elite female wheelchair basketball players is dependent on functional ability.

There are so many options to throw a fabulous gender reveal party. Do you have any ideas or photos you want to share? Upload them to our project gallery!
Lander Rish
I love all these ideas! It would be nice if the parents-to-be do not know the gender, too, and be surprised as well!
Yes, Lander Rish, that's the trend these days. The parents give the sealed enveloped from the doctor revealing the gender to someone else and have that person prepare the reveal gimmick.
Jillian Scotts
The balloons in a box idea is what we did for our own gender reveal party two years ago!
The cake and the balloon ideas are kinda old. Anybody else want to share more unique gender reveal ideas? I can definitely use new ones.
At my baby shower all the guest knew we were having a boy, but my family and I did not find out until we got to the shower.
Andrea Lowe
You can try the confetti thing.
Andrea Lowe
Or the fortune cookie!
My husband and I decided not to find out the gender of our baby until the baby shower, which my sister-in-law planned. She also helped us decorate the nursery. We gave her the envelope from our OB, so she knew one month ahead. My hubby and I designed the nursery to be white and beige and had my SIL add the pink/blue accents to the room. She had the nursery locked up and only opened it during the gender reveal party.
Andrea Lowe
That's cool. Lucky for you, you have your SIL to do all these things. I wish I had somebody totally reliable when it comes to decorating and party planning.
Neat idea. You should share pictures of your nursery and your gender reveal party!
Instead of a confetti or balloons, we had a pinata filled with pink goodies!
Ross Neytiri
That's so cool! So was it your idea or was it from the one planning your party? I wish I had somebody who'd do that for me!
My best friend had the idea. I wanted to find out at birth but my husband wanted to know before he was born so she came up with the idea and decorated the baby shower according to gender. Her and I went and registered for both genders and took off all the girl items since we were having a boy. She sent out invites by e-mail and let all our guest know it was a gender reveal party. She set up a power point slide of all the ultrasound pictures and video which also confirmed the gender. (Had my midwife and ultrasound tech. seal the information in an envelope and handed it to my friend.) She has been a true blessing to us.

Bears nearing decision time on Kreutz, 13 others
By Neil Hayes email@example.com February 26, 2011 9:53PM
Updated: September 24, 2012 6:25AM
INDIANAPOLIS — Bears general manager Jerry Angelo said he will begin meeting with the coaching staff and making roster decisions starting next week. It should be a busy process with 14 unrestricted free agents, including veteran center Olin Kreutz, who played a critical role in the offensive line turning things around last season.
The Bears are high on Edwin Williams, whom they signed off the Washington Redskins' practice squad last season, and guard Roberto Garza could shift to center, but Kreutz is the only experienced center on the roster. The 13-year veteran likely will be back for at least a transition year or two.
"Every day I've been here, Olin Kreutz has been here," Bears coach Lovie Smith said. "I believe in him. He's the anchor of our team, our team leader. Not offense, defense, special teams. Our team leader. So he's very important to what we do. I know he's without a contract right now, but I think Olin knows that he's wanted, and that's not really even a question."
Linebackers Pisa Tinoisamoa and Nick Roach, defensive tackle Anthony Adams, punter Brad Maynard, safety Danieal Manning, receiver Rashied Davis and special-teams ace Corey Graham also will be unrestricted free agents.
"We would like to bring as many of the players back as possible," Smith said. "Of course, finances will have a lot to do with that."
Happy either way
Martez Wilson said the Bears were one of three teams that have interviewed him at the combine. That's fine with the former Illinois linebacker, who wouldn't mind doing what fellow Simeon graduate Derrick Rose is doing — playing for his hometown team.
"If I could, it would be great to play for a team I grew up rooting for," he said. "But no matter who drafts me, I'll be happy."
Wilson is ranked among the top inside linebackers in the 2011 draft class after leading the Illini with 112 tackles last season.

Facebook, Zynga and Micron: Tech Winners & Losers (Update 1)
Updated from 11:50 AM EDT to provide closing prices and information on Micron's rivals, SanDisk and LSI Corporation.
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Shares of Facebook (FB) climbed a modest 0.76% to $31.84 on Thursday after Argus initiated coverage of the social-network operator, rating shares "hold." Argus remains uncertain how Facebook will monetize growth in mobile access.
"Management has begun to address questions regarding the efficacy of advertising on Facebook, though it is still unclear how it will monetize the fast growth in mobile access. In addition, although Facebook touts its 901 million members, we are reminded of past internet booms in which eyeballs did not translate into earnings," wrote analyst Joseph Bonner, in a note.
Facebook has rallied 17.49% in the past ten days.Zynga (ZNGA) fell on Wednesday to $5.72, losing 2.89%. Earlier this week, Zynga announced that its newly acquired mobile game, Draw Something, will be turned into a television show. On Wednesday, Amazon (AMZN) called on developers to start submitting apps for distribution in the UK, Germany, France, Italy and Spain "later this year." Shares of the online-retailer dropped 1.1%, reaching $220.57 on Thursday. Analysts at Sterne Agee cut their price target of Micron Technology (MU) to $10 in light of weak pricing for memory chips and dampened retail demand, as noted in the company's third-quarter earnings report. Though the analysts' maintained their buy rating, shares of the semiconductor manufacturer sank 7.76% on Thursday to $5.64. Micron's rivals suffered as well. SanDisk (SNDK) is down 3.92% to $36, and LSI Corporation (LSI) is down 6.49% to $6.20. --Written by Nathalie Pierrepont in New York. >To submit a news tip, send an email to: firstname.lastname@example.com.

How to Move Apps to the SD Card on Android Froyo the Easy Way with SDMove
Thursday 05th of August 2010
If you finally have gotten your much-awaited OTA Froyo update, after obsessively having pressed the "Check now" button for a couple of hours (at least that's what I did), there are a couple of things to keep in mind before you start using the new Move to SD feature.We recently did a tutorial on how to make Android install apps to the memory card by default, and we also discussed that some apps shouldn't be installed to the external storage. Because when you mount your phone as a disk drive, the Android system will no longer have access to software installed on the memory card.If you have apps on the SD card that are loaded automatically when you start your phone, they will also be launched later than applications located on the internal storage, since it will take a while for the card to be ready: ever noticed that "Preparing SD card" message in the notification bar? One would think that Android should make sure that the SD is available before giving you access to the UI, like most other mobile platforms, but that's not how it's currently done.This is esp

Newbtorial: Adding Sounds to Your Android Phone
Sunday 27th of September 2009
Hello Android users,I thought I would be a good exercise to run through how to create/add new ringtones, alarms, and notifications. It is very easy to add new sounds to your phone by following the steps below. Connect your phone to your computer via theUSB cable. Your phone will notify you that you have connected to a computer; check the notification and choose "mount.†This makes your phone a discoverable drive on your computer.On your computer, hit your windows button + 'E' to open your windows explorer.Navigate to your phone and open it, most likely called "removable drive.â€In your phone, check to see if you have folders called "alarms,†"notifications,†or "ringtonesâ€â€¦ if you don't' have any of these folders yet, right mouse-click and create them. (you may have these folders already if you have used a program like ringdroid to make alarms or ringtones) Once these folders are created, any MP3 you move into these folders will show up as a sound that you can use for whichever purpos

How To: Sync iTunes with Android
Monday 02nd of August 2010
This guide is an easier, edited version of a article I read online. The source can be found at the bottom. For those of you coming from iPhones/iPods and have massive clean & organized music with iTunes, there is indeed a way to sync your music for free to your android phone. If you like it, support the project, the software I'm about to talk about is free.iTunes Agent - Windows based software that reads iTunes, keeps organization and brings the files to your Android Phone.----iTuneMyWalkman - Mac users that are smart enough to know that there are other Mp3 players other than iPods, install this software instead of iTunes Agent.1.) Download iTunes Agent, 2.) ---> Once Installed, the software will run in the system tray.3.) Plug in your Android (EVO 4G in this guide.) and mount it as a hard drive. The software is going to write files to your SD Card. 4.) ---> Create a folder on your SD Card titled Music. I will explain why below.Configuring iTunes Agent

adb - How to mount system in rw mode if no custom recovery
Tuesday 03rd of July 2012
When I changed my build.prop for spoofing another device model, I copied build.prop from another device having gingerbrad but my system is froyo. When I rebooted, I lost my internet connection. It reports no ruim card where as it is there. I had installed apks for terminal emulator, busybox etc. but they are not working. Xplore file manager does not work. But free version of Astro File Manager and ROM Toolkit work. I tried to push old build.prop on device using adb but it gives permission denied error as it is read only system. I came to know that adb root and adb remount works if you are in recovery mode.I tried to go into recovery mode, but there is no custom recovery installed on my cheap android phone, so can not go into recovery mode.su does not work in my adb shell.Can anybody tell me the way to mount system partition in rw mode using adb ( without recovery mode ) or is there any tool which will work in this situation ?Thanks in advance.

[Update] HD2 Closer to Stealing Android, EVO Steals HD2′s Car Mount
Saturday 26th of June 2010
We still haven't seen Sprint or Best Buy launch the more desirable accessories we're expecting (such as the HDMI dock and the official car mount) for the HTC EVO 4G. If you need a car mount and can't wait until the middle part of the summer, then you could probably bend that HD2 car mount into a perfect fit.HTCPedia modified the HD2′s car mount by moving the location of the USB charging port (built-in functionality) and breaking off one of the dock's silver grips to make room for the EVO. A huge plus is that the Car Home-like Navigator app launches automatically when the phone is plugged into the dock. It's probably not the prettiest solution for now, but it works (and I doubt you'll be paying a good deal of attention to how your dock looks, anyway, what with all that screen real estate consuming your attention).If we turn around to the other end of the spectrum, the HTC HD2′s getting closer to being hacked to run Android. The guys responsible for the project have made some great strides recently that puts the first bootable build of An

Tuesday 18th of October 2011
I have bought a Xperia Neo which runs Android 2.3 and I'm running Kubuntu Linux on my Laptop.I just connected the Phone using a USB Cable and set it to Mass Storage Mode. I expected to have the phone SD card in my devices list, so I can mount it and use it as a file storage. But there were no device added.A few Googling led me to some Microsft Applications, (Activesync, etc.). Does it mean I cannot connect to my phone's SD Card in Linux?Should I really use Windows for such a simple task, Tranfering files using a USB Cable?!NoteWith the help of @onik I tried to mount the SD card manually and here is the result:in Mass Storage Modetakpar@skyspace:/media$ sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdb /media/android/mount: no medium found on /dev/sdbtakpar@skyspace:/media$ sudo mount /dev/sdb /media/android/mount: /dev/sdb: unknown devicetakpar@skyspace:/media$ sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sdb /media/android/Error opening '/dev/sdb': No medium foundFailed to mount '/dev/sdb': No medium foundand in Media Mode there would be no /dev/dsb anymore.

A business or an organization may employ an off-duty Metro police officer in the capacity of a security guard if your business or organization is registered with the State of Tennessee - Department of Commerce and Insurance as a PSO. There is no cost to register. The business is required to show proof of liability insurance. It is possible that the registration process could take several weeks or a month. This process may be expedited if conducted in person. For more information regarding registration, call the Department of Commerce and Insurance at 741-6382.
When registered as a PSO, an organization can hire any officer(s) they choose, schedule officers as they please, and negotiate the rate of pay. The officer is paid directly by your organization. When using off duty Metro police officers in the capacity as a security guard, the organization is that person's employer and therefore, the organization is responsible for establishing and enforcing employee rules, scheduling employee hours, etc. (just as the company is with their other employees). This is the least expensive method by which to employ an off-duty police officer in the capacity of a security guard.
If you are interested in this option, contact the State of Tennessee, Department of Commerce and Insurance at 615-741-6382.
