David Clohessy was 11 when his Missouri priest began to molest him.
For four years, on church-sponsored trips, hundreds of miles away from home, the boy would wake in the middle of the night to find the man he trusted on top of him.
Clohessy initially blocked out the memories, until he learned that three of his brothers had also been victimized.
The trauma weaves through every aspect of his life: He filed a lawsuit against the priest who molested him, who was later suspended but not defrocked, and counseled other survivors of priest abuse.
But the most profound impact has been on how he has raised his own two boys -- now 11 and 15, exactly the same age as Clohessy when he was first molested.
"Sadly, there are few sleepovers at people's houses, and they have probably been told more than most kids about their body and privacy, and how to protect themselves," he said.
Clohessy has been watching the Catholic Church in New York City, where the archdiocese is distributing age-appropriate books to children to help safeguard them against similar abuses.
One -- a coloring book -- depicts a guardian angel hovering over a man under an open door and child at the altar. The angel says, "If a child and an adult happen to be alone, someone should know where they are, and the door should be open or have a big window in it."
The man does not wear a collar and is not explicitly characterized as a priest, an omission that disturbs Clohessy, who is now the national director of the Chicago-based Survivors Network of Those Abused by Priests.
"I think we should err on the side of clarity," he said. "We just have to bite the bullet and say to kids, even a grown-up who you like and your parents respect, and even a grown-up in a position of real authority, with a fancy title and a big job, can hurt you."
This mea culpa from the church is not only vague but useless, said to Clohessy.
The coloring book was designed to be part of the abuse-prevention curriculum mandated by a 2002 U.S. bishops charter. The book offers a series of warnings about gift-giving strangers and online predators. Priests are finally mentioned, but as part of a word search for a list of adults who can be trusted.
"It's a step forward, but it doesn't go far enough," he said. "It continues our society's longstanding preoccupation with 'stranger danger' when, in fact, research shows the overwhelming number of kids are abused by trusting adults."
In 2002, the Roman Catholic Church was engulfed by scandal when Boston's Cardinal Bernard Law resigned for overlooking the sexual abuse of thousands of children over many decades.
The crisis was not isolated there. As public furor grew, other dioceses began confronting abusive clergy in their ranks. SNAP and other rights organizations estimate as many as 100,000 children were victimized.
Edward Mechmann, director of the church's Safe Environment office, told ABC News that the New York Archdiocese didn't want its book program to be "just a reaction" to the scandal.
The program, he said, was developed as a starting point for discussions between children and their parents and teachers.The coloring book and a comic book for older children are part of a larger religious curriculum and other efforts to educate and protect children.

The pope, speaking about the 'Ndrangheta crime group during Mass before tens of thousands of people in southern Italy, said: "Those who in their lives follow this path of evil, as mafiosi do, are not in communion with God. They are excommunicated."
The pope added that the Catholic Church would exert its full force in efforts to combat organised crime.

The Mapleton Police Department and Blue Earth County Sheriff's Department responded to a bomb threat at Maple River High School in Mapleton Monday afternoon. Officials say a student found a hand written note in a women's bathroom which made reference to a bomb being at the school. The school was evacuated. A suspect was quickly uncovered and an arrest was made. The suspect is a juvenile female and a student at Maple River. It was determined that there was no bomb in the school and no students were in any danger at any time. The threat was discovered while students were conducting a scheduled emergency lock-down drill.

Weather thwarts rescue
Bad weather has forced the Tasmanian rescue helicopter to abandon an attempt to retrieve two people injured in a car crash in the Central Highlands.
The two were seriously injured when the car they were in left the Lyell Highway at Derwent Bridge and hit a tree.
The helicopter sent to retrieve the pair has landed at Wayatinah, and ambulance officers are taking medical equipment to the pair.
Police are now advising motorists the Lake Highway at the Great Lake is covered in ice, and should only be used by four wheel drive vehicles.

Criminal – Murder – First degree
Where a jury in the Superior Court convicted a defendant of murder in the first degree, the conviction should be affirmed, as (1) the trial judge did not abuse his discretion in questioning the venire about their views on scientific evidence, (2) the judge did not err by failing to instruct, consistent with Commonwealth v. Bowden, 379 Mass. 472, 485-486 (1980), that the jury could consider "the lack of police investigation [and] the lack of physical evidence" in determining whether there was a reasonable doubt as to the defendant's guilt, (3) the judge's erroneous decision to permit a witness to give an opinion regarding the culpability of the defendant was insubstantial and (4) evidence of an argument between the defendant and a third party was not unduly prejudicial.

Halloween isn't spooky any more – unless you're scared of getting on the scales the following morning, after a night of great food and drink. It now rivals Bonfire Night as the perfect evening for a party involving both children and adults – if you plan it right.
So, here's our guide to keeping the kids amused…
Do you trick or treat?
If you're happy for trick or treaters to call – give them a sign, such as a pumpkin lamp in the window (and make sure your kids know the signs for others!)
Remember – not everyone enjoys Halloween and trick or treating so it's a good idea to only call at houses you know your children will be welcome. Obviously they should be accompanied by an adult.
Why not make your house a little spooky: When my daughter was young, we mapped out a route that included adults willing to do more than just hand out sweets. I once created a spooky 'body' on the kitchen table using sheets, wellington boots, tomato ketchup and peeled grapes for eyes.
Costumes and face painting
Clare's come up with a fantastically easy Halloween costume. It's basically a tail added to a pair of leggings that can transform your little angel into a little devil.
Find the step by step instructions with photographs here
Face painting: Masks are great but for young kids scared by some of the more ghoulish ones, try face painting (even Mum & Dad!). You don't have to be Van Gogh…
Dracula: paint the face white, put a small drip of red paint on one side of the mouth, add arched black eyebrows and add a pointed V shape in a dark colour at the centre the forehead where it meets the natural hairline .
Frankenstein: paint the face green, put a scar on one cheek and square off the natural hair line using a dark face paint. Draw a bolt on the side of the neck.
And thinking outside the box. Lions are scary too! Lion: paint the face orange, add whiskers and some stripes. Paint the nose black.
Sausages cooked indoors or on the barbecue are a Halloween and Bonfire Night staple but it's all about setting the scene:
- Decant tomato ketchup into a small plastic witch's cauldron
- Dress the table with pumpkin lanterns
- Use yellow freeze paper painted with ghosts instead of a tablecloth
You can also fill a plastic cauldron with my Scarily spicy Halloween relish: Dice a large tomato and half a peeled cucumber, then add 3 finely sliced spring onions, a deseeded medium heat or hot chilli (as you prefer), salt, black pepper and the juice of a lime.
Pumpkin soup: If you've been hollowing out pumpkins for lanterns you'll have lots of flesh to use up. » Some great pumpkin recipes Even more Make it and mend it pumpkin inspiration – carving, recipes and more
Party cake pops: These are all the rage now and Clare O's been experimenting with some special Halloween cake pop designs » Find out how to make brilliant Halloween cake pops
And games!
Keep the kids entertained after the trick or treating. How about a couple of simple Halloween games.
Halloween pass the parcel: Spooky music on the CD. Wrap the parcel as usual but use "creepy crawly sweets", such as spiders and snakes.
Scary musical statues: Everyone has to freeze in scary positions when when the music stops. Judges can try to make them move but without touching participants.

Immediate Family
About Eliza Madsen Welker
Eliza was born in Denmark to Jacob and Dorothea Christensen and the family came to the United States in 1857 after joining the Mormon Church in Denmark in 1855. Jacob was known as Jacob Christensen in Denmark, following the patronymic system of naming, since his father's name was Christen Madsen. Jacob's own children, while living in Denmark, followed the same system and went by the surname of Jacobsen. Upon arriving in the Salt Lake Valley in 1857 with the Mathias Cowley Company, they all took the name of their paternal grandfather, Madsen.
The family left their home in Skibsted, Aalborg, Denmark, and spent the winter of 1856-1957 in Hurup, Als, Denmark. When they left Hurup, Denmark, they sailed from Copenhagen on the steamer "L.N. Hvidt," and arrived at Grimsby, England, April 21st in the afternoon, then the journey was continued the following day by rail to Liverpool. They sailed from Liverpool, England, on April 25, 1857, aboard the ship "Westmoreland" and arrived in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, May 31, 1857. While on board the ship the evening of April 24th, five young couples were married. The Jacob Christianson family are listed on the ship's roster as follows:
Jacob Christianson, 50, farmer, Dorothea Christianson, 39, wife, Hans Christianson, 18, farmer, Annie Christianson, 6, Neils Christianson, 2, Eliza Christianson, 7, Anton P. Christianson, 4, Inger, infant, and Franklin, infant. One of their sons, Christian, who was born in 1844 in Denmark, had already come to the U.S. with another family in 1853 at the age of 9 years old. It evidently took a while for the family to divest themselves of their land and possessions in Denmark before they could join Christian in Utah.
On June 2, the family traveled by rail from Philadelphia, via Baltimore, Wheeling, and then Iowa City, Iowa, on July 9, 1857. Travel conditions were so terrible on the way to Iowa that they lost their youngest son, Franklin during the journey. The balance of the way to the valley was difficult and heart rending. About June 15th, the company commenced the journey toward the Great Salt Lake Valley from Iowa City with an ox-train, under the captain Elder Matthias Cowley. They arrived in Salt Lake City September 13, 1857.
When they arrived in Salt Lake City, it was during the coming of Johnson's Army, so after several days, they were sent south with the other saints. They remained in Nephi for the rest of the years of 1857 and 1858, and then moved to Ogden. In about 1863, they moved to Bloomington, Bear Lake, Idaho, where Eliza's father died at the age of 73 in about 1878. Several of the Madsen siblings married into the Welker family, including Eliza, Inger Marie and Christian. Eliza married Alfred Welker, Inger married James Welker, and Christian married Roxanna Louisa Welker. Roxanna Louisa Welker's father was John Welker, and James and Alfred Welker were John's nephews, being the sons of John's brother, James Wilburn Welker and his wife, Annie Pugh Welker.
The Welker family members were Mormon Pioneers of 1852 arriving in the Isaac Stewart Company, and had first come to America in the 1700's from Germany. They had settled in North Carolina and then moved west into Ohio about the beginning of the 1800's. They were also very early converts to the Mormon Church, and after they were driven out of Ohio, went to Missouri, where the Mormon's were again driven out, and then to Nauvoo, Illinois, where they stayed until after the death of Joseph Smith, Jr., in 1844. They were in Iowa in 1851 before leaving for Utah, and my second great grandmother, Roxanna Louisa Welker Madsen, was born there that year to John Welker and his wife, Roxana Mahala Dustin Welker.
Eliza married Alfred Welker in about 1869 in Bear Lake County, Idaho. Her brother, Christian, married Roxanna Louisa Welker, about the same time. In the 1870 U.S. Federal Census for Bloomington, Eliza was 21 and Alfred, 23, and their son Alfred F., 8 months old. Living next door was Eliza's brother, Christian Madsen, 25, his wife, Roxanna Louisa Welker Madsen 19, and their one year old daughter, Dortha, my great grandmother. Next door were Eliza and Christian's parents, Jacob Madsen, 64, his wife Christina, 53, and their sons Niels, 23, and Jacob, 10. Christian and Jacob were also working as farmers. The value of Christian's real estate was $400 and his personal estate $200. The value of Jacob's real estate was $500 and his personal estate $600,and Alfred's real estate was valued at $350 and his personal estate $200.
Eliza and Alfred had another daughter in 1877, Dorthea Annie, but she passed away at the age of 6 weeks old.
In the 1880 U.S. Federal Census for Bloomington, Bear Lake County, Idaho, Eliza, 30, was living with Alfred, 33, and their children, David E., 8, Amy L., 5, and Jacob, one month old. Evidently, their first son, Alfred F., had already passed away, because he was not shown in the census record, and would have only been about 10 or 11 years old in 1880. Eliza's husband, Alfred, was still working as a farmer in this census record. In about 1883 many of the Madsen and Welker family members moved from Bloomington, Bear Lake, Idaho, to Safford, Arizona. Christian and his wife Roxanna Louisa Welker Madsen owned a livery stable there and for a while ran the Groesbeck Hotel which was also located in Safford, Arizona. Sadly on Christmas Day in 1896, for some reason, Eliza's husband, Alfred Welker, passed away, but I do not know the cause of his death.
In the 1900 U.S. Federal Census for Graham County, Arizona Territory, Eliza was a 51-year old widow, and living with her were her two sons, David, 28, and Arthur, 17. Her son Jacob had already passed away by 1900, and her daughter, Amy Letitia, had already been married at the time. There was no occupation listed for any of the family members, but they owned their home free of a mortgage.
In the 1910 U.S. Federal Census for Safford, Graham County, Arizona, Eliza, 60, was living with her son David, 38, and David was working as a salesman in a retail liquor store, which is odd considering the family were all Mormons! Next door was Eliza's brother, Christian Madsen, 65, his wife Roxanna Louisa, 58, and two of their children, Bertie (Louisa Albertina was her full name), 30, and Roy (Royal Eller was his full name), 24. Also in Christian's home was his father-in-law, John Welker, 84, who was a widower, his wife Roxana Mahala Dustin Welker, having passed away in 1904.
The census record states that Eliza immigrated from Denmark to America in 1855, and Christian in 1854, so this is slightly different that the immigration records above showing Eliza arrived in 1857. The record indicates that Eliza had had 7 children, 3 of whom were still living. Christian and Roxana Louisa had been married 42 years and had 10 children, 7 of whom were still living.
In this census record Christian was listed as the owner of a livery stable, his son Roy was working as a teamster at the livery stable, and both John Welker and Eliza Madsen Welker, had their "own income" according to the census. This census record was enumerated in April, and sadly, Eliza passed away 8 months later in December of 1910. She was buried in the Safford City Cemetery in Safford, Graham County, Arizona.
Eliza's son David Ephram Welker, born August 6, 1871, passed away on July 5, 1955, in Safford, and his death certificate says his cause of death was: "patient died suddenly from syncope". I had never heard of the word "syncope before", but a Google search resulted in the following meaning: the medical term for fainting or passing out, and is precisely defined as a transient loss of consciousness and postural tone, characterized by rapid onset, short duration, and spontaneous recovery, due to low blood flow to the brain that most often results from low blood pressure. Considering David was almost 84 years old at the time of his death, this does not seem to be unusual. David was single at the time of his death and I'm not sure if he ever married or had any children.
Arthur Elijah Welker, was born February 15, 1883, in Idaho, and passed away, February 28, 1926. Arthur married Mary Belle Greenhalgh, 1887-1955. In the 1910 U.S. Federal Census, Arthur was 27, and living with his wife, Mary, 22, in the home of her father, Joseph Greenhalgh, 60, and mother, Lucelia, 52, and her siblings, Robert, 32, Alma, 16, Lester, 13, Samuel, 11, and Dawaine, 6. Alfred's occupation at the time was that of a barber. I believe Alfred and Mary had at least one son, Alfred Melvin, and possibly other children.
Eliza's daughter, Amy Letitia Welker, was born April 25, 1875, and passed away November 12, 1973. She married Morgan Clair Merrill, 1897-1918, and they had at least five children. One son in particular was Morgan Clair Merrill, Jr., born August 14, 1897, who passed away February 7, 1918, and died in the service of his country at Chelsea, Massachusetts. Perhaps he had been stationed stateside during World War I.

Your camera's built-in flash is designed to replicate neutral color in your photographs, which means when you take pictures of Uncle Jake and Aunt Millie, their skin-tone shouldn't foretell a looming case of food poisoning or festering liver condition. But sometimes you need a break from the visual comfort of neutrality, and that's where Sticky Filters come into the picture (pun unintended, but I'm running with it anyway).
Available in 2 sizes - Large (2 x 3.25") for shoe-mounted speedlites, and Junior (0.5 x 1.5") for built-in, pop-up flashes, and point-and-shoot cameras, each filter kit contains pre-cut, tear-resistant polyester filters designed to balance the color of your flash to match the ambient color balance of Full-Tungsten, 0.5 Tungsten, Cool Flourescent, Average Flourescent, and a Hazy / Open Shade filter. Two of each filter are included in each pack
Sticky Filters are ready-to-use out of the box, and they adhere to the front of the flash tube cover via a tacky adhesive strip that leaves no residue and is reusable multiple times.
This will be a great addition to my camera bag. till now I've been carrying the Lumiquest gel holder and the strobist gel kit, it will be nice to be able to just carry the gels and slap em on as needed. Thanks
unfortunatly I dont wear glasses but maybe I'll pick up a chep pair of reading glasses and give it a try.
I appreciate your effort in the promotion of Sticky Filters, but I am afraid that you have totally missunderstood what Sticky Filters are used for. At first glance it would seem that the filters are used to achieve exactly what you have described. But why would someone pay $49.95 to make their flash photos look off-color or non-neutral when all they would have to do is set the WB wrong for free?
Sticky Filters are used to correct for the awful background color cast you get when shooting with a flash under artificial indoor illumination such as fluorescent or tungsten lamps. I'm sure you have seen the orange color that is prevalent behind the subject in photos shot under tungsten lights. Or the goofy yellow-green color in photos shot under fluorescent. Sticky Filters help make the scene look neutral colored both at the subject and in the background. This is achieved by selecting a Sticky Filter to match the dominate abient light of the scene, placing it over the flash and performing a custom white balance with the flash on.
There are other products out there that do the same thing, but what makes Sticky Filters unique is their simple and quick self-adhesive ability. They don't require any dedicated filter attachment devices, rubber bands or velcro. Just peel and stick. When finished, return them to the storage card for safe keeping until needed again. They can be used many many many times over. Aslo, one set of filters will fit just about any hotshoe flash on the market so your Sticky Filters purchase dosn't become obsolete when you buy a different flash. And they come with a lifetime replacement program.
I could go on and on explaining the uses of the Sticky Filters system, but readers would best be served by visiting the Sticky Filters website at www.stickyfilters.com. There you will see before and after photos and more in-depth use instructions.

I've been doing DL NYE for 27 or so years now. If you want to be in DL that night, get in early and stay there. Don't leave the park. I have seen to many guest at the gates saying, but I have a hand stamp. That wont help if they are at capacity and aren't allowed to let more people in.
The place is packed and its hard to move in the evening/night time. Try not to move from one side of the park to the other. Its easier to stay in one area. The running back and forth with FP wont be easy.
After midnight the park empty but still is open till 2:00am(usually) That is a great time to get on rides. We have done it a few times and its a blast.


text: It is not vignetting due to an obstruction it is because the distance from the pinhole to the film surface is greater at the edges than from the pinhole to the centre and the edges are underexposed. If you curved the film plane or made a centre filter you could reduce the problem. Or it could be done with careful dodging when printing.

POZ April May 2012
POZ is the nation's leading magazine about HIV/AIDS. Serving the community of people living with and those affected by HIV/AIDS since 1994.
poz.com APRIL/MAY 2012 POZ 29 B I L L WA D M A N MEET THE PARENTS During the late 1980s, a group of New York mothers, fathers and friends—mobilized by the shock and grief of a loved one's HIV infection and the inadequacy of existing treatment options—became AIDS advocates. They established Concerned Parents for AIDS Research, an all-volunteer group that continues to raise millions of dollars to advance HIV research today. E BY REED VREELAND CPFA board members (from left): Ivy Duneier; Andy Lipschitz, MD; Eileen Mitzman; and Carol Gertz STABLISHING A FOUNDATION TO FUND CUTTING- edge medical research was not a priority for Carol Gertz in the fall of 1988. Instead she was busy caring for her 22-year-old daughter, Alison, who had just been diag- nosed with AIDS. Alison—known as Ali by her family and friends—had been at home with flu-like symptoms for over a week before her mother admitted her to a top- tier New York hospital. After a couple of weeks of nonstop tests, doctors reported they still had no answers. But there was one thing they hadn't tested for: HIV. An epidemiologist eventually spotted a shadow in Ali's lung and identified it as Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (PCP), the pneumonia associated with AIDS. She underwent a three-week recovery from pneumonia and eventually was able to return home. At that time, treatment options for HIV were extremely limited; the only available option was AZT, a medi- cation with side effects that landed Ali back in the hospital two years later. Seeing how limited the development of drugs for HIV had been over the course of nearly a decade, Carol Gertz decided she needed to act. "We weren't going to let Ali die," she says.

Chairman: Phil Packer, MBE
There are over 100,000 charities working tirelessly across Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Her Majesty's Lord Lieutenants have not been included on this list, however they are some of the most influential members of society and lend their support to many charities within their respective county. Charity chief executives have also been omitted, as for the most part their influence is as part of a team of staff who all would deserve collective recognition. This list has recognised just a small number of individuals, amongst so many, whose influence continues to shape the charity sector or whose decisions this year are inspiring others to follow their example.
Phil Packer has inspired millions and through his aim, delivers inspiration, creates greater inclusion and influences in the areas of self-harm, depression and mental wellness in order to improve the vital support for young people experiencing trauma in their lives. After sustaining catastrophic spinal cord damage, in 2009, Phil rowed the Channel, walked the London Marathon in 14 days and climbed El Capitan, completing 4250 pull-ups, raising over £1.3million for the wounded. He received the Helen Rollason Award at the BBC Sports Personality of the Year. He completed the London Marathon in 2010 in 26 hours for 26 charities and in 2012 he walked 2012 miles throughout every county of the UK; with his spinal cord damage this was the equivalent of 310 marathons in 331 days. As a charity ambassador and as founder of the British Inspiration Trust (BRIT), he is a highly respected figure within the charity sector.

A large number of children with autism (ASD) also have comorbid psychological conditions. Anxiety is one of the most common comorbid issues that ASD children experience. The risk for anxiety in ASD can be explained by a number of factors. First, ASD children have challenges interacting with others due to impaired communications skills. They also often display repetitive behaviors and other unusual manifestations that set them apart from their peers. These factors can cause isolation and social difficulties that can exacerbate anxiety in children with ASD. However, the traditional methods of gauging stress response in anxiety, which include self-reports and observer reports, can be distorted in children with ASD because of the lack of emotional self-awareness and unique behaviors they possess. Because of the high rates of anxiety in ASD, Azedeh Kushki of the Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitations Hospital in Canada wanted to test whether or not physiological markers could provide accurate evidence of stress responses in children with anxiety and ASD.
In a recent study, Kushki measured changes in the autonomic nervous system (ANS) to determine stress response in a sample of 15 children with autism and 18 children without (TD). By measuring cardiac activity, perspiration, and skin temperature, Kushki was able to find some critical differences in the stress responses between the two groups of children. First, the ASD participants had increased cardiac activity during a neutral condition (baseline) and during the anxiety induction test (stress cue), while the TD group only had increased heart rate during the stress cue. Additionally, the ASD participants had muted perspiration responses and minimal change in skin temperature during the stress task, which is not a typical stress response.
Kushki believes these results show that ASD can contribute to over-arousal of sympathetic nervous system activity and under-arousal of parasympathetic nervous system responses. In other words, in this study, the children with ASD demonstrated atypical responses to the stressful tasks and had higher levels of anxiety when compared to the TD participants. Of interest was the finding that children with higher IQs had more severe stress responses and higher levels of anxiety. Perhaps their intelligence makes them more aware of their impairments and/or allows them to more effectively express their anxiety than children with lower IQs. Finally, Kushki believes that the findings of this study provide support for the use of physiological indicators as measures of anxiety and stress response in children with ASD. Kushki added, "Future studies are needed to pinpoint the underlying mechanisms in the central and peripheral nervous systems that may contribute to this atypical response."
Kushki A, Drumm E, Pla Mobarak M, Tanel N, Dupuis A, et al. (2013). Investigating the autonomic nervous system response to anxiety in children with autism spectrum disorders. PLoS ONE 8(4): e59730. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0059730

There are simply so many things about autism that continue to baffle us all.
My cousin has a child who was perfectly fine up until the age of 18 months and then she slowly began to withdraw into herself. I know that her mom and dad ask themselves every day what they could have done differently to prevent it, but it seems there is no science yet that can tell them that.
It does give me hope that there seems to be more attention being given to this in addition to research and funding but we can't stop until we have all of the answers for these families living with this.
Anxiety can get the best of us. No matter the confidence or self belief levels once anxiety sets in all that will count for nothing. One thing I would like to know here is – is the anxiety a result of ASD or is it the anxiety a result of the children knowing their conditions and thus being nervous? that is, is it a natural occurrence due to ASD or a self-induced one?
I have a general question about Autism: why are so many kids diagnosed with this these days? When I was growing up (I'm 39), no one had ever even heard of Autism, and now it seems like 25% of kids are diagnosed with some form of it. Were these kids always present and we just didn't label them? Is it really progress to find a label for a child? Is it helpful in anyway? Okay, so I guess I have more than one question!
can't even imagine the anxiety adn stress these kids feel when they are so different from other kids.
it seems liek it would be so unfair to have one disorder like asd and then all the sudden now you have to deal with anxiety too.
why cant these kids catch a break. it seems like too much for one kids to have to edal with.
Okay, yeah, I definitely see this in my six year old son who is Autistic. Man, the anxiety that kid has at bed time is unreal. We finally had to get an alarm for his bedroom door so we'd know if he got out of his room at night cuz one night we found him in the car…with the keys! I am sympathetic to his anxiety, but it is hard to be the best parent in the world when you have to function on two hours of sleep cuz he can't sleep at night and you have a full time job. Calgon, take me away!
Autism is no fun for anyone-parent or child. Period.
I teach kids with Autism at an elementary school. It is unbelievable how mean kids can be. I wish for one day these kids could walk a mile in my kids' shoes. They'd have so much more understanding. I just can't figure out how to help the other kids see that my kids have a lot to offer and would be really fun to hang out with. The other kids just can't see past the differences and are only willing to look at the outside of the kids rather than the inside. Society is not in the greatest shape.
a child who is autistic- how would you know if they are experiencing anxiety? would they be able to tell you that or would a parent just know via their actions?

Audrey Hepburn, Ben Gazzara, They All Laughed Ben Gazzara Dead Pt.1: Anatomy Of A Murder, Husbands, An Early Frost Long before An Early Frost, Ben Gazzara had already appeared in two (however veiled) gay-themed productions. On Broadway, he was the virile ex-football player pining for his "best friend" while ignoring wife Barbara Bel Geddes in the 1955 original staging of Tennessee Williams' Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. (Paul Newman and Elizabeth Taylor played those two roles in the bowdlerized 1958 movie version directed by Richard Brooks.) And in 1957, Gazzara made his film debut as a sexually troubled military man who gets off by viciously abusing (or watching others viciously abuse) his fellow cadets in Jack Garfein's The Strange One. Among Gazzara's other 75 or so feature films — many of which were made in Italy — are Steve Carver's Capone (1975), in the title role; Stuart Rosenberg's Voyage of the Damned »

Romney Executes Republican Party Power Grab
The Establishment wins a round over the grassroots. "Awful," says the conservative Blackwell.
TAMPA — The Republican National Convention Rules Committee voted 63-38 to approve a new rule allowing granting the Republican National Committee — and Mitt Romney — sweeping new powers to amend the governing document of the GOP.
The move came at the encouragement of Mitt Romney supporters on the committee, including Romney's top lawyer Ben Ginsberg, who stressed that it would grant "flexibility" to Romney and the committee to adapt to changing political environments. The rule allows the RNC to amend the party's rules without a vote by the full Republican National Convention. And it offers the Republican Establishment a new tool to keep at by Tea Party initiatives that threaten to embarrass or contradict party leadership and stray from a planned message.
Romney, as his party's nominee, exerts significant influence over the RNC, which is made up of elected party officials from all 50 states, while the larger Convention Rules Committee is larger and has a more grassroots membership.
"This is necessary for the world in which we find ourselves in," Ginsberg told the committee, adding that it is "important for the political survival of the party in the electoral context," for the committee to be able to change the rules as it sees fit in the intervening four years between conventions.
Virginia delegate and RNC member Morton Blackwell strenuously objected to the proposed rule change, calling it "the most awful proposed amendments I've seen presented to this committee."
"This is dangerous, it amounts to a power grab," he said. "We are abandoning the historic process by which are rules are adopted."
The Romney allies waited until Friday to propose the amendment, choosing to avoid giving the opposition time to organize by proposing it at the preliminary Rules meeting on Wednesday or during more than three years of RNC Rules Committee discussions.
South Carolina delegate Drew McKissick, who objected to the rule change, echoed Blackwell's charge, warning that nearly any rule could now be amended by 3/4 of the Republican National Committee.
"It's definitely a power grab by the campaign, the committee," he said. "It's bad juju. Once you let the genie out of the bottle they can do anything."

The physical constraints on the scaling law of global energy confinement time have been derived based on a set of weakly relativistic collisional/collisionless Maxwell-Vlasov equations. A total of 106 L-mode electron cyclotron heating (ECH) data were selected from the T-10 and DIII-D tokamaks. These data, through statistical regression analysis, were processed to obtain the scaling law. The resultant scaling becomes if the collisional physical constraint is imposed. The scaling passed the statistical test and was found to describe the database well. Hence, the weakly relativistic collisional model is suggested to be adequate to depict the ECH mechanism.
