Ten-year-old Jason was in an accident while riding on his bicycle. Although he survived the accident, it left him with a brain injury. To improve some of his cognitive (thinking) skills, comprehension skills, and coordination, Jason's doctors recommended that he receive occupational therapy (OT).
At first, his parents were slightly skeptical about whether occupational therapy could benefit their son. They had never heard of OT and wondered if it was more appropriate for adults. But after watching the activities and Jason's improvements, his parents felt hopeful that Jason was on the road to recovery.
Occupational therapy - a treatment that focuses on helping people achieve independence in all areas of their lives - can offer kids with various needs positive, fun activities to improve their cognitive, physical, and motor skills and enhance their self-esteem and sense of accomplishment.
Some people may think that occupational therapy is only for adults; children, after all, do not have occupations. But a child's main job is playing and learning, and an occupational therapist can evaluate a child's skills for play activities, school performance, and activities of daily living and compare them with what is developmentally appropriate for that age group.
According to the American Occupational Therapy Association (AOTA), in addition to dealing with an individual's physical well-being, OT practitioners address psychological, social, and environmental factors that may hinder an individual's functioning in different ways. This unique approach makes occupational therapy a vital part of health care for some kids.
So who might use an occupational therapy practitioner? According to AOTA, kids with the following medical problems may benefit from OT:
One of the activities that occupational therapists can address to meet children's needs is working on fine motor skills so that kids can grasp and release toys and develop good handwriting skills. Occupational therapists also address hand-eye coordination to improve play skills, such as hitting a target, batting a ball, or copying from a blackboard.
An occupational therapist can also:
Although both types of therapy help kids improve the quality of their lives, there are differences. Physical therapy deals with the issues of pain, strength, joint range of motion, endurance, and gross motor functioning, whereas occupational therapy deals more with fine motor skills, visual-perceptual skills, cognitive skills, and sensory-processing deficits.
There are two professional levels of occupational practice - occupational therapist (OT) and occupational therapist assistant (OTA).
Since 2007, an occupational therapist (OT) is required to complete a master's degree program. Before 2007, only a bachelor's degree was required.
An occupational therapist assistant is only required to complete an associate's degree program. OTAs are able to carry out treatment plans developed by the occupational therapist but can't complete evaluations.
All occupational therapy practitioners must complete supervised fieldwork programs and pass a national certification examination. Most states also require a license to practice and require occupational therapy practitioners to take continuing education classes throughout their careers to maintain that licensure.
Occupational therapists work in a variety of settings, including:
If you think your child may benefit from occupational therapy, talk to your doctor, who can usually refer you to individual specialists who are best suited to your child's condition. The school nurse or guidance counselor also may be able to recommend specialists based on your child's academic or social performance.
You can also consult your local yellow pages or contact a nearby hospital or rehabilitation center for referrals. A list of specialists may also be available through your state's occupational therapy association.
However you find an occupational therapist for your child, make sure that your health insurance company covers the program you select.

This letter written on behalf of the Society of American Archivists expresses one group's opposition to the CTEA and the need to oppose such a passing of an act. They argue that the law disrupts the balance between public and private interests and will have a negative impact on the public's use of unpublished materials for teaching, scholarship and research. The point of the Society is to make things available to the public and they believe that such an extension will inhibit their ability to make things available and useable to the public. Maher on behalf of the society argues that there should be a vigorous public domain and protections for the rights of holders of intellectual property as well. They believe that too short of a copyright may discourage new works but too long of a period may limit the creation of new discoveries and Congress must maintain a balance between the interests of authors and the rights of the public. Maher argues that, "no extension of copyright term should be contemplated until there are available solid analysis of the likely impact of such an extension on the creation of new knowledge". He goes on to say that the Society is troubles by the effect the extension may have on the use of unpublished material that is found in archives and that courts have continues to restrict the application of fair use, which applies, to archives. The final argument Maher makes is that the Society believes that only a few individuals of heirs and corporations would benefit from the extension of such an extension.
This letter is important because it takes the perspective of an organization that finds the passing of the CTEA to be unbeneficial and detrimental to their work. It is important to my paper because it takes a different perspective, a more personal perspective in a sense. The argument they make is not just for the public domain but also rather for the balance which is something that has not been argued for in other articles.

am not seeing this being more effective in battle than a helicopter... and the copter most likely costs less.
Unless they use this as the perfect decoy... seeing as these things would draw so much fire just for how pant-wettingly terrifying they'd look
fires when "smiling"... who ever came up with that as a trigger component is completly insane.

Didnt japan say they wanted to invest in real gundams?

Release Date: August 5, 2008
SECA Fuel Cell Proves Successful in Navy's Proof-of-Concept Testing Spinoff Applications Mark the Road to Widespread Commercialization
Washington, D. C. — Two technologies developed under the U.S. Department of Energy's Solid State Energy Conversion Alliance (SECA) fuel cell program recently passed successful proof-of-concept tests by the U.S. Navy's Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division located in Newport, Rhode Island. The tests mark a breakthrough for solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC)-based power systems and reflect the potential of SOFC technology for other spinoff market applications as well.
The proof-of-concept tests incorporated two technologies developed under the SECA program: SOFC stacks manufactured by Delphi Corporation of Flint, Mich., and a specialized blower developed for SECA SOFC systems by R&D Dynamics, Bloomfield, Conn., under DOE's Small Business Innovation Research program. The blower was used successfully in the test to recycle high-temperature fuel exhaust flows back to the fuel reformer. The proof-of-concept system met the U.S. Navy's targets for system size, power output, and efficiency.
SECA fuel cells make efficient use of plentiful domestic fuel sources and are a clean source of energy. They operate by separating and transferring oxygen across a solid electrolyte membrane, where it reacts with a fuel—such as synthesis gas derived from coal, biofuels, or natural gas—to produce steam and carbon dioxide (CO2). Condensing the steam results in a pure stream of CO2 gas that can be readily captured for storage or other use in a central location. This feature, coupled with the fact that fuel cell efficiency does not depend on high temperatures, results in near-zero emissions at equivalent or reduced cost-of-electricity compared to today's power generation. Furthermore, SECA systems have low water requirements and high efficiencies relative to conventional technologies.
SECA fuel cells are well-suited to unmanned undersea vehicles because they can operate on logistic fuels (such as jet fuels), tolerate fuel impurities, generate high-quality heat for fuel reforming, and are highly efficient in converting fuel energy into electricity. Use in unmanned undersea vehicles represents a spinoff application of SECA's fuel cell technology. Spinoffs into a variety of other applications and markets are encouraged because they enable increased manufacturing production volume and lower costs.
SECA was established by DOE's Office of Fossil Energy in 2000 to research and develop low-cost, modular, fuel-flexible solid oxide fuel cell systems by 2010. In early 2005, the SECA program was accelerated to deliver megawatt-class fuel cell systems in response to emerging national needs for low-cost carbon capture technologies, more efficient and cost effective use of fuels abundantly available in the United States, and reduced water use by power plants.
The Office of Fossil Energy's National Energy Technology Laboratory manages the SECA program and its projects.

Charles Sidney Gilpin
Charles Sidney Gilpin was a break-through stage actor – one of the first African American performers to transcend the racial barriers of the early 20th century. But his career is a gripping reminder of the dual threats of racial prejudice and economic hardship.
Farrar: Commentator Brooks Smith has been rediscovering Richmond's performing arts history, and today, Brooks, you are here to talk about an early Richmond entertainer whose name is well known as the name of a neighborhood in the city, but many people, including, I confess, myself, don't really know who Gilpin was.
Smith: That's right. Charles Sidney Gilpin was born in 1878 in the city's Jackson Ward neighborhood; he was the youngest of 14 children. He grew up on St. Peter's Street, which is right behind what is now Theatre IV on Broad St. He attended school until the age of 12, then became a printer's apprentice, what they used to call a printer's devil, at the Richmond Planet, which was Richmond's most famous black newspaper. And I think his first stage appearance probably occurred around this same time. He drew from many influences on his life around the city, including churches, the jail and tobacco factories, where all kinds of music flowed through his ears.
Farrar: And Charles Gilpin went on to become a popular entertainer on the vaudeville and minstrel circuits back in the early 1900's.
Smith: That's right. He moved from Richmond to Philadelphia and then to New York City, and he ran what was then the vaudeville and minstrel circuit. He described it as the "ragged edge of show business." It wasn't the top of the top but he was certainly on the rise. He played for a time with the Great Southern Minstrel Barn Storming Aggregation and after that with a group called the Canadian Jubilee Singers. What's interesting to me, and I'll pause on two themes that seemed to continue through Gilpin's life. Two obstacles, really, the first racial and the second financial. The issue of racial prejudice seemed to always lurk in Gilpin's background and he reflected later in life that his time with the Canadian Jubilee Singers was his happiest experience, because the audiences up in Canada didn't expect a type-cast black actor-performances, they just expected a good performance.
And I mentioned the financial hurdles. To make ends meet during and between his different stage runs over time, he worked all manner of odd jobs: elevator operator, barber, porter, he even was a trainer for prize fighters for a time.
Farrar: And he went on to star on Broadway in a play by Eugene O'Neill.
Smith: He did. His run to stardom began when he helped to form a group called the Lafayette Players in Harlem in 1915. A few years later, he was introduced to Broadway. His first performance was in 1919; it was sufficiently distinguishing of his acting abilities that Emperor Jones, Eugene Oneill's cast, came looking for him and found him in an elevator in Harlem and asked him to play this lead role in the great playwright's play, the Emperor Jones, in 1920. And it was by all accounts a breakthrough moment in time. The critics in newspapers after the first performance hailed him, Gilpin, that is, as the most brilliant performer that they had seen any place that year, a performance of "historic stature," said one, "a sustained and stunning piece of acting, " said another. And perhaps the most important was the concept that his performance, Gilpin's performance in the Emperor Jones, transcended both race and country. It really defined him as one of the first black actors to receive acclaim on the main stage. And also one of the first black stars on the American stage.
Farrar: Despite that success and acclaim, it was, of course, the era of segregation, discrimination, the Jim Crow era, not only in the South but the North. And he came back to Richmond. Tell us about that.
Smith: Well, the original play was only slated for a two-week run. It ended up going for four years, it was so popular. About a year into it, after 200 performances up in New York City, they took Emperor Jones on the road, came back to Richmond for a three-day stint after Christmas in 1921. Played at the Academy of Music, which I believe was off of Broad or near Broad. And it was an important moment in our city from a racial perspective. I consider it to be one of the first chinks in the wall of prejudice because for that run of performances the Academy modified its segregated seating so you didn't have to sit in a roped-off section, but you could essentially sit anywhere, including the box seats. And that was critical at that time in Richmond history because famous local people like Maggie Walker and John Mitchell, Jr., were there to see the performances but otherwise might have boycotted them.
Farrar: And yet, at the end of his life, he was working as an elevator operator.
Smith: Yes, sadly, Gilpin was never able to sustain that peak moment in his career. Toward the end of his life, and he died quite early at the age of 51, he lost his voice, which pretty much took him off the stage and he was forced to return to being an elevator operator. Interestingly, some of the most important recognition for his career came after his death. In 1941 Eugene O'Neill credited Gilpin as the only actor who was ever able to convey the notion of the character that the playwright had in mind. Which I believe was the greatest acclaim that O'Neill gave to anyone. And, as you mentioned at the beginning of the show, that same year, Richmond's first "high standard, low rent" housing project, known as Gilpin Court, was opened to the public.
Farrar: And named for this famous son of Richmond.
Smith: That's right, in his honor.
Farrar: Brooks, thanks very much for telling us about this now perhaps little-known figure in the history of Richmond's performing arts.
Smith: You bet. It's just a hint of the tragic but vitally important life and times of Charles Gilpin.

I would like to put in a radiant floor in a kitchen heated from below the floor with water tubes between the joists.. The normal water furnace radiator in the kitchen is in a bad spot and should be disabled and the same line would be connected to the plastic radiant heater lines with diffusers. the flooring is 1 inch thick planks which I would level with 1/4 inch finishing plywood. Then possibly glue on the vinyl flooring. My question is what is the maximum temperature the plastic can take and would the thermal cycling temperature change damage the flooring. Is this a recommended method or how would it be done. 1 inch flooring with the metal groove diffusers wont cause much of a temp gradient | |||
you need to ck with the maker of the plastic pipe to find out there temp rating, infloor heating is installed under vinyl floors the trick is to use the heat defusers, and insulate under the pipes staple that infloor piping tight to the underside of the floor i cant tell you what your system temp should be you havent giving enough information https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vn7bkncf1_E | ||||

Q: I live in a subdivision that is 9 or 10 years old, and many people here have been told that the covenants and declarations for the neighborhood still have not been turned over so the residents can enforce them. The neighborhood is turning into trash with many violations of the covenants, and many of us would like to do something about it to protect the value of our homes. What can we do? - R.K., Fayetteville
A: Ahh, those annoying neighbors who flaunt the rules of homeowner associations. If you feel someone is in violation of a neighborhood's restrictive covenants and the person won't stop, you can take that person to court and ask a judge to prohibit the irritating activity.
Yes, that can be expensive, because you will likely need a lawyer. Needless to say, you'll need to pick and choose your battles with your neighbors.
Neil Yarborough, a Fayetteville lawyer whose firm handles real estate law, among other issues, said any property owner can go to court to attempt to enforce restrictive covenants.
"You could sue for injunctive relief," Yarborough said.
He said most restrictive covenants explain how they can be enforced, either by a homeowners association or any property owner in the subdivision. Such cases usually end up in Superior Court, but District Court can handle them, too.
A homeowner cannot sue until the developer of the subdivision has sold enough lots to transfer majority interest to a homeowners association, Yarborough said.
The issue can become tricky, he said. One section, or phase, of a subdivision may have different restrictive covenants than another section built earlier.
We looked further into your situation and called one of the developers of your neighborhood off Camden Road. He said this subdivision has been fully built but does not have a homeowners association. The developer told us that any property owner who lives in the subdivision can sue to enforce the rules, and that going to court in larger numbers - i.e., with your neighbors - or forming a homeowners association would help your case.
Q: There's some state-owned property on Camden Road near the Peartree subdivision, and there is a loud excavating noise there every morning now. Is that from work on the Outer Loop? - H.G., Fayetteville
A: The N.C. Department of Transportation is working on widening the shoulders on Camden Road, according to Tracy Pittman, one of the department's division construction engineers. Pittman also said work on the Outer Loop will begin when a contractor is hired for the project.

Arena Pantanal in Cuiaba, Curitiba's Arena da Baixada and Sao Paulo's Arena Corinthians stadium - which is hosting the opening game and where two workmen were killed in a crane accident last month - all need more time to be built.

Anti-freeze, acrylic tubing, and rubber stoppers. 6 x 6 x 6, 2004
This collection features the work of the four recipients of the 2004-05 MCAD/McKnight Foundation Fellowships for Visual Artists. These four Minnesota artistsAna Lois-Borzi, Rollin Marquette, Erika Olson, and Joe Smithwere chosen from a pool of approximately 200 applicants in spring 2004 by a jury of three national arts professionals. These outstanding artists utilized the fellowship year to plumb the depths of their ideas regarding art and art-making, challenging preconceptions, testing new theories and materials, and broadening their perspectives through travel and research. They all made new, intriguing works that take them in new directions and yet hone their own distinctive voices and concerns.Minneapolis-based Argentinean artist Ana Lois-Borzi uses drawing as her medium, a fundamental relation to mark making and space that defines her entire oeuvre. Based in images of childhood, stuffed animals, and macabre humor, her work seeks to explore the intersection between our objects and our selves, dark memories and active desires. Lois-Borzi received an MFA in drawing and painting at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities in 1996.Minneapolis College of Art and Design graduate Erika Olson (MFA 02) weaves plants, flowers and stylized arabesques into lush and colorful paintings on plywood and felt objects. In her work, she creates alternative worlds, using the language of decoration and artificiality to limn the stillness and fecundity of nature.Alternative worlds are also important to Rollin Marquette, an artist originally from New Jersey, who received his MFA in sculpture from the State University of New York-Albany in 1995. Marquettes worlds are wrought from man-made and incendiary materials of stainless steel and sulfur, anti-freeze and improvised ballistic gelatin. These powerful materials interact with the observer through walk-in containers or familiar objects that are at once unyielding and commanding and yet strangely sensuous, resilient and compelling.Joe Smiths objects and installations take time to work on the viewer confronted by subversive juxtapositions, shapes, materials and references. With common materials like cardboard, duct tape, spit balls and Mylar, he investigates the spaces and corners we ignore or neglect, featuring them in a perverse and seductive dance with our fears, our expectations and our desires. Smith graduated with an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art in Michigan in 1998.New work by each of these four artists will be featured in the forthcoming exhibition MCAD/McKnight Artists 2005 at the MCADGallery from July 1 to August 7, 2005. The exhibition is accompanied by a full-color catalogue with essays on each artist by New York art critic Johanna Burton.July 1 August 7, 2005MCADGalleryOpening reception: Friday, July 1, 6-8 p.m.Artists panel discussion: Wednesday, July 6, 6 p.m.MCADGalleryMinneapolis College of Art and Design2501 Stevens AvenueMinneapolis, MN 55404(612) 874-3700http://www.mcad.eduGallery hoursMonday-Friday 9 am 8 pmSaturday 9 am 5 pmSunday noon 5 pmThis exhibition is made possible through a grant from The McKnight Foundation.
