Product description
'If there were a bestseller list for practical books relating to behavioural methods of teaching people with learning disabilities, then the works of Janet Carr would justifiably occupy the top places. At a time when more people with learning disabilities are living in the community and access to personnel trained in psychological approaches to care is scanty, [this book] is welcome and needed. I'm sure that I'll be recommending it to carers for many years to come.' - Nursing Standard 'The theory is explained in simple jargon-free terms and is made very digestible by the numerous practical examples provided throughout. The book is clearly laid out, well organised and very readable.' - Communication 'This publication must surely be of great help to everyone involved in this specialised field.' - Disability News The authors describe, in non-technical language, the application of behavioural psychology to the teaching, care and development of adults with learning disabilities. It is the first text which provides both a theoretical background and well described examples for practical, hands-on work specifically with adults. Most chapters end with questions that can be used to help readers revise what they have read or to act as the basis for discussion. The appendices include possible answers to the questions, and lists of useful resources and references.

Disabled Stoke City fans want a better view at the Britannia Stadium - because able-bodied supporters keep standing up
Posted: August 11, 2014
|DISABLED Stoke City fans are calling for the club to create a dedicated stand for them – because they are missing all the action when able-bodied supporters stand up.
Stoke City Disabled Supporters Group has launched a petition calling for the club to give wheelchair-bound fans a better view at the Britannia Stadium.
It has been signed by more than 300 supporters.
Now the group is meeting the club today to discuss the issue.
Wheelchair-bound petition organiser Linda Bradshaw, of Market Drayton, who has a season ticket in the Boothen End, said: "I've had fans standing up in front of me for years and I've been fighting with the club to get it sorted.
"I've been a fan when I wasn't in a wheelchair, so I don't blame fans for standing up when there's a goal or a corner as I did it myself, but the club needs to look at the rows in front of the disabled sections. We've asked the club many times to either raise the disabled area or move the rows in front, but they haven't done anything.
"Both disabled and able-bodied fans have been very supportive and since I set up the petition they've been great.
"Football's a passionate game, and I fully understand the supporters' desire to stand. But the club needs to sort the bays out to make sure disabled fans can enjoy the game. I don't have this problem at other grounds."
Able-bodied Potters' fan Tony Morris has supported Linda with the petition.
The 50-year-old, of Newstead, said: "We all love Stoke City to bits, but we want the club to give disabled fans a bit more thought. The fans have a right to stand up and cheer but not everyone thinks about those in wheelchairs."
He added: "A lot of people have said the only answer is to move all of the disabled seats to the front of the stands but that's not fair because everyone knows that if you're on the front row you end up getting soaked when it rains.
"The only way I think it would work is if they created a block specifically for disabled people when they start filling the corners of the ground in."
The Stoke City Supporters' Council is set to discuss the issue at its next meeting.
Council member Peter Elkin, of Cheadle, said: "I have some disabled friends who attend matches and I understand where some concerns may be coming from.
"Maybe it would be a good idea to have a dedicated section for disabled fans as that way they would not be missing any of the action. This should be something the council will discuss at our next meeting as we don't want any fans to feel restricted in any way."
Stoke City have planning permission to put in extra seats between the Seddon stand and the Marston's Pedigree stand to accommodate a further 1,800 fans.
It is not known how many wheelchair-bound fans – who are currently spread throughout the stadium – attend matches at the Brit.
A Stoke City spokesman said: "We will not be commenting."

About Transcapital
Transcapital is one of the leading non-bank financial institutions (NBFI) in Mongolia. Through 12 branches, it serves mainly urban and semi-urban microfinance clients, including a growing number of migrants in the capital city of Ulaanbaatar. Of its clients, almost 68% are women and 60% live in ger districts, settlements made up of houses and traditional Mongolian felt tents that lack basic infrastructure.About Housing Loans
Many poor families cannot afford housing that meets their needs. When you make a housing loan on Kiva, you give people access to flexible capital to obtain or improve their homes. Better housing means better health, sanitation, and even educational outcomes for children. A house can also be much more for entrepreneurs who run businesses out of their homes. In this way, housing and small business loans on Kiva share a common purpose: to alleviate poverty and enable families to enjoy more stable lives.

I know a lot of people have gotten great results with this, but it just doesn't work for my hair. Using a normal amount of gel for me - about two quarter size dollops - I found that this couldn't provide the frizz control, curl definition, or volume as my favorites, DevaCurl Ultra Defining Gel and Curl Junkie Pattern Pusha. I tried using more gel, and still got way more frizz than normal. The curl definition and volume on Day 1 was only so-so, and then it was completely weighed down on the second day. It was bad enough that I decided to start over and wash with a different product, and for the first time since I switched to silicone-free products, it felt like there was buildup in my hair that I found it difficult to wash out with only conditioner. I tried the Light Hold version a while ago, and it just felt like there wasn't anywhere near enough hold. I've yet to get exceptional results with an aloe-based gel, so perhaps my hair just doesn't react well to that.

I have been using Mop Top products for at least 9 years now. I constantly get compliments on my hair... questions from other curlies as to what I use to make it look so defined and not frizzy. I follow all the curly hair advice (only shampoo twice a week with a curl friendly shampoo) and I swear by daily conditioning and using my Mop Top Medium-hold Anti Frizz Gel!!! I actually use a dallop of the gel mixed with conditioner and scrunch it throughout my hair! It defines my curls very well. As someone else said, after I diffuse my hair, if there are any sections that seem overly stiff/firm, I can squeeze it and it softens right up. If you haven't tried MopTop yet, it is well worth the money. It doesn't take a lot of product for it to do the job!
Posted by sinuousspiral (Type Unknown) on 04/28/2014
I am new to using hair products. I've just tolerated my frizzy hair most of my life! I never realized that it was possible to use gel without it feeling crunchy. I LOVE this gel. I don't even have to use much, maybe a tbsp, and my hair is long and thick. When my hair dries it looks the way I love my waves to look, the frizz is gone and it feels like there is NOTHING in my hair at all! If any parts have a little firmness just squeezing it makes it feel soft again and it still holds my waves and curls really well. I've tried a few other gels since and none are as good! Plus, I like the natural ingredients and the mild scent, most products have way too much fragrance. Awesome!

This hairgel taught my hair how to act right and look stylish after nearly 30 years. I use it whether I let my hair airdry or with a hair dryer. As a bonus, the gel has a tropical scent just strong enough to get great comments!
Posted by ckrose100 (Type 4a) on 11/25/2013
I absolutely love this hair gel. My is naturally curly and extremely frizzy. For over 30 years I have tried hundreds of different products and this is the one tht actually does what it says...controls my frizz!! I loved it so much I have purchased the shampoo, conditioner and leave in conditioner!
Posted by email@example.com (Type 3b) on 05/01/2013
Its just ok. No wow factor for me. I need something to loosen my curls and eliminate halo frizz. And something to control my curls so that they can't crowd my face. I will use it up, but probably will not purchase again. :(
Posted by Curlsnswirls (Type 3a) on 01/21/2013
I LOVE this gel!! It does just what its name says, medium hold anti-frizz. Leaves my hair feeling natural with hold, not crunchy. It leaves my hair looking shiny and frizz free. I live that it does not leave my hair looking or feeling producty no matter how much I use. It has a light scent that fades quickly and my hair does not take forever to dry. Love this gel!!
Posted by jackman2575 (Type Unkown) on 01/01/2013
I ordered the product on 12/9/2012 and received a phone call a week later advising me that the product was out of stock. This was a bogo promo. I was asked if I wanted to cancel my order. I replied that I would wait for the product to come in. It is now 1/1/13. I still have not received my order. To Moptop's credit---it is a product worth waiting for. As for Curlmart...well...that's a different story.

Bradley Wiggins (Sky) has credited his disappointing 2010 Tour de France for sparking the current run of form that has marked him out as one of the principal favourites for overall honours in Paris this July.
The Englishman cemented that status on Sunday when he secured his second consecutive overall victory at the Critérium du Dauphiné, a success which follows on from victories at Paris-Nice and the Tour de Romandie earlier in the season.
"The reason I'm in this position now is because I had a horrendous Tour in 2010, or at least way below expectations," Wiggins said in Chatel. "It sort of felt humiliating. At the end of the year, I thought 'right, you can't go on like this. You've got the engine, you've got the motor.' That was when [coach] Tim [Kerrison] came in and Shane [Sutton] and they started looking after my programme."
Wiggins proceeded to enjoy significant improvement in his second campaign for Sky in 2011, but that progress briefly threatened to unravel when his Tour challenge was ended by a broken collarbone at the end of the opening week. Instead, Wiggins dusted himself down and re-emerged with some strong displays in the season's final weeks.
"That was a massive kick for me, because it led me on to the Vuelta and the world championships and meant I started the winter fitter," Wiggins said. "I was chasing something that I had perhaps lost last July and now here we are one year on…"
Wiggins' Dauphiné triumph was his third stage race victory of 2012, and each win will have provided his Sky team with a useful work-out in the complicated art of defending an overall lead.
"We've had a few goes at it now and I think we're getting better at it if anything," Wiggins said. "It's certainly getting easier each time – not in terms of the effort but in terms of staying cool at the right moment and knowing what to do and when to do it."
Indeed, the ominous strength of his Sky team has gained many of the plaudits this week – as well as shutting down the race on the Col de Joux-Plane, the men in black placed four riders in the top ten overall. Incidentally, the Wiggins-Michael Rogers one-two was a feat last achieved by the US Postal squad in 2002, when Lance Armstrong finished ahead of Floyd Landis.
Allied to the strength of his team, Wiggins has himself appeared to relax into his leadership role over the course of his time at Sky. "I've come a long way in the three years since Sky was formed, as a person as well. I'm more confident in doing this [talking to the press] – I still don't like it – but I'm more comfortable with doing it now," said Wiggins, who admitted that he was in the form of his life as July approaches.
"This is probably the best shape I've ever been in to try and win the Tour. It's not going to be easy; it's probably going to be the hardest thing I've ever done. But then if the Tour was easy, everybody would do it."
Wiggins' co-existence with Mark Cavendish is sure to generate plenty of column inches ahead of the announcement of Sky's final selection for the Tour de France. He was reluctant to discuss how much of the team's resources would be devoted to aiding Cavendish in July.
"The team will go with the strategy that they see fit," Wiggins said. "In the next few weeks, they'll get together and decide what strategy we're going to go with for the Tour de France. At this point in time, I couldn't tell you anything as I'd only be speculating really."
Wiggins remains in France for two further days to reconnoitre some Tour finishes, as well as course of the opening long time trial at Bescancon. His pre-Tour preparation will also include a week's training in Mallorca ("because it's a bit warmer than Manchester"), and he will forgo his defence of his national road race title.
Before he signed off, Wiggins asked the press room who had been the last man to win Paris-Nice and the Dauphiné in the same season. "I was just thinking about that during the stage today actually," he admitted.
The answer was Eddy Merckx in 1971: the history buff Wiggins certainly doesn't need to be told that the Belgian also went on to add the Tour de France that year for good measure.

- American Recovery and Reinvestment Act Ad CampaignGSA Federal Acquisition Service (FAS)
- As part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), federal agencies were given funding to help stimulate the economy and create jobs. GSA's Federal Acquistion Service, recognizing its core responsibility to support other federal agencies in implementing the Act, launched an informative advertising campaign. Sage produced a media plan and created a range of print, outdoor, and online communications to get the message to government buyers about how GSA procurement contracts enable federal agencies to quickly and efficiently fulfill their ARRA objectives.
The Obama administration's American Recovery and Reinvestment Act was created to help jumpstart the economy, create and save millions of jobs, and address long-neglected challenges so the country can prosper in the 21st century. The Act provides unprecedented levels of transparency and accountability, so that citizens will be able to know how, when, and where tax dollars are being spent. Spearheaded by a new Recovery Board, the Act contains built-in measures to root out waste, inefficiency, and unnecessary spending.
The Act also provides funding to various federal agencies to help stimulate the economy and create more jobs. GSA worked with Sage to launch promotional campaign informing government agencies that, by using existing GSA contract vehicles and services, they could spend the stimulus money quickly (within 60–90 days) and still achieve fair competition, transparency, and accountability.
To educate government agencies about how quick and easy it is to acquire the products and services they need through existing GSA procurement contracts.
Even though Sage was already in the middle of creating and placing a suite of ads for GSA's Federal Acquisition Service, we responded quickly to the new task with a flexible strategy that identified both the value proposition and a range of print, outdoor, and online channels of communication to convey the message.
Understanding that the primary audience was civilian federal government contracting professionals, program managers, and executive-level decision makers, Sage decided that the best way to create awareness of GSA's offerings and services would be to promote GSA as the fastest way for government agencies to meet the demands of the new initiative.
Through GSA, agencies could spend the money provided in the new government recovery package with transparency, in a way that meets all the Act's regulations and requirements. In addition, GSA offers proven solutions for virtually any contractual service or product category within the scope of the recovery package. This made GSA the equivalent of a "one-stop" shopping experience in a wide range of areas, including energy and environmental solutions, technology and telecommunications, engineering and professional/technical business consulting, and facilities modernization, management, supplies and equipment, as well as many others.
To help set the campaign apart from previous marketing efforts and to create a distinctive look and feel, Sage created a series of three unique concepts tailored to its target audiences—one specifically tailored to contracting officers and two geared towards program managers and agency executives.
For the broader audience appeals, the agency chose two different concepts. For the first concept, our team chose to move forward with a text-only design to focus entirely on listing the benefits that come from working with GSA. Sage highlighted specific key words (such as "speed," "transparency," "accountability," and "simplify") by increasing the point size and bolding these benefits to make them pop out against the rest of the copy. The second concept incorporated a more traditional GSA brand standard approach, leveraging and expanding on the current look and feel of the GSA ads and using the same underlying themes of patriotism and customer focus. Using a photograph of various hands holding on to a piece of an American flag as the dominant image, Sage showed government agencies working together with GSA to get America back on track. The ad copy emphasized empowerment and supported the concept that the agency is in control of the procurement process.
For the ads targeting contracting professionals, Sage took a less traditional approach and selected an image of a business person who appears to be distressed, banging her head against a wall. This image was chosen to connect with the target audience (contracting officers) who are faced with the daily challenges of acting swiftly while ensuring compliance standards are being met.
To gain maximum exposure and attract both general and specific audiences with varying degrees of decision-making authority, Sage chose to use display advertising throughout the DC-area metropolitan transit system, targeting Metro stations near government agencies within the area that received funding from the Act. The agency also developed a bus back for Metrobuses, Metro station posters, and print advertisements for commuter publications like the and . In addition, Sage created and placed print ads in publications aimed at contracting officers, including and , and developed several web banner advertisements to ensure consistent messaging and awareness throughout the government trade press.
Through Sage's targeted advertising campaigns, government agencies discovered how fast and easy it is to obtain high-quality and environmentally friendly products and services in a cost-effective manner through GSA. As a result of this outreach effort, traffic to GSA's website increased significantly as other government agencies visited, looking for ways to respond to the Recovery Act. Before its conclusion, this fully integrated campaign will incorporate direct mail packages, an email campaign, and additional magazine advertisements.

Rachel Weisz attended Variety's Power of Women New York at Cipriani 42nd Street, on Friday (April 24) in New York City.
Showcasing the power of a woman in a suit, the actress made quite a style statement wearing a Givenchy Pre-Fall 2015 cross-print suit in a relaxed fit, with a ribbon tie detail which further enhanced the cool factor of this look.
Rachel has been quite a breath of fresh air since returning to the red carpet, and this look steeped in sartorial elegance, polished and utterly refined, will find itself a place on the BDOTW list.

Emmy Rossum served up two citrus summery shades while attending Variety's Power of Women New York event on Friday (April 24) and the Tribeca Talks After The Movie: 'Mr. Robot' on Sunday (April 26) in New York City.
Variety's Power of Women New York: Full of feminine charm, I love how this signature Oscar de la Renta frock comes alive with the sculptural ruffled layers and matchy pumps.
Tribeca Talks After The Movie: 'Mr. Robot': Equally energising was her neon yellow Preen Resort 2015 dress, crafted from smooth silk satin with a full pleated skirt. What appears to be another pair of matchy heels are tri-colour Louboutins, which adds a quirky style element to the look.
While the first look is classic Emmy, however, I prefer the second one for the vibrancy and modernity.

Solange Knowles was spotted backstage during the BET New York Upfronts on Thursday (April 23) in New York City.
The singer wore a Maki Oh Fall 2015 dress which showcases the designers love for impeccable tailoring and mixed prints in this case watery prints an influence from her native Nigeria.
Solange never slacks in the shoe department, so I love how her Tory Burch 'Mika' mules with their unique panel design amplify her truly contemporary look.

Kim Kardashian West attended Variety's Power of Women New York at Cipriani 42nd Street, on Friday (April 24) in New York City.
We often find the reality star lacking in taste despite the big labels, but she is currently on something of a roll.
I found myself totally enamoured by her Time 100 gala look, and here again I find her Narciso Rodriguez Fall 2015 ivory look having a positive effect.
I do have one critique however, and that is that her nude bra would've been less visible had she opted for a colour closer to her skin colour.
Styled with a custom Olympia Le-Tan 'Mr & Mrs West: A Love Story' clutch, I would most definitely give this an A for effort.
Are you feeling as generous?

I'm only interested in this if it's available for PC or Mac but I'm not getting my hopes up. The port for GTAIV was horrible…
I have no problems with the morality of these games. You play the kind of character you want to play. It's not like you have to run around and murder people. Yes, you have to shoot and kill other gang members and the like but how is that different than killing other humans in say Fallout or Gothic? And is the main storyline really any worse than Maffia, Max Payne or similar games?

Azolean chapter 3 . 11/29/2012 This was an absolutely fantastic portrayal of their friendship's progress in those years before Watson married. It struck very true of the characters. Thank you for the time, effort, and creativity that went into this piece. |
Cloelius Princess chapter 3 . 7/1/2012 I love the last line. Very funny. Just my type of humor in the entire story. Congratulations |
TheRoadgoeseverOnAndOn chapter 3 . 11/20/2011 Holmes can be quite protective of Watson at times, especially when he's sick. |

Marie Nomad chapter 3 . 10/13/2011 Very nice turnabout of Holmes taking care of Watson for a change. Yeah, sometimes, a guy can push himself and not know it. Kudos to Watson to seeing through Holmes' disguise. Hanging around the world's greatest detective does rub off on him. Nice job. |
Spockologist chapter 3 . 3/24/2011 I am so glad I found this! I loved every bit of it! And for being your first Holmes fic, wow. That's incredible! I loved the last line, it's perfect. This is such a great story! I'm not sure I can think of a word that describes how much I love it. Brilliant, yes. Perfectly IC, yes. This was just awesome. Thank you! |
mrspencil chapter 3 . 1/11/2011 Good heavens! Here is another gem I have totally failed to review. A very impressive start to your Holmsian writing. All in character with an interesting plot and some well-placed humour:) Well done:) Mrs P:) |
nomdeplume30 chapter 3 . 12/31/2010 Very nice! I liked Holmes' lines as the end. :) Both men were IC and you wrote them convincingly. Well done! |
Catherine Spark chapter 3 . 9/26/2010 Most interested to see where this is going! Holmes is being much more caring than I would imagine him to be, but then, he does always notice when Watson looks unwell and attempts to soothe him to sleep with his violin in 'A Study In Scarlet'. I like it, especially Holmes's difficulty in recognising his own emotions. |
Akkalia chapter 1 . 7/23/2010 I impressed with the research you did. That is a very interesting map by the way |
Giftless-Princess chapter 3 . 7/8/2010 This was great! You have to continue it! Love it. Good job staying in charater. xD |
sonofafluffymuffin chapter 3 . 5/30/2010 lol DD This story was sooo cute! . I just LOVED reading it! DDDDD |
Alone Dreaming chapter 1 . 5/19/2010 :) Just wanted to drop a line of thank you (for your lovely words on my live journal) and offer you the payment of candy, love, eternal affection if you did a sequel to this or something. I love this story more than jelly beans... and I love jelly beans quite a bit. You've a wonderful grasp of Holmes- in a more delightful light than most folks right him, which I appreciate, having a certain love affair with A Study in Scarlet and his whimsical behaviors. His care and concern for Watson is utterly endearing, Watson's reaction to his supposed illness (with his knowledge that it's not true) tickles me pink, and... well... I'd love some more... fluff? XD *is shameless* Anyway, you're absolutely fantastic. :) -Alone Dreaming |

Holy Night of Miracles (A Cantata of Hope for Christmas). Composed by Lloyd Larson. Arranged by Niel Lorenz. For SATB choir, piano (with optional orchestration). Cantatas. Christmas, Sacred. Choral octavo. Duration 30 minutes. Published by Exaltation Publications (LO.65-1986L).
One miraculous night in Bethlehem changed the course of human history forever. Foretold by Old Testament prophets, the Messiah entered the world and, even more importantly, the hearts of people from all walks of life with a message of hope and love. This holy night is distinctively captured in this musical recounting of Jesus' birth. Blending familiar carols with new Christmas anthems, this work is a timely reminder that the hope born on that first Christmas night is still needed today and ultimately found in the miraculous Child born in Bethlehem. Heart-warming music, inspiring narration and congregational singing make this a moving worship experience for choirs and congregation alike.

Study Reveals Unborn Children Prefer Mothers Voice May 24, 2003
Study Reveals Unborn Children Prefer Mothers Voice Source: ABC News; May 22, 2003 Toronto, Canada -- A new study finds unborn children recognize and prefer their mothers voice while still in the womb. Canadian and Chinese researchers studying infant development released key findings this month suggesting babies brains learn speech patterns and lay the groundwork for language acquisition while still in the womb, ABC News reports. Before birth, the brain is being set up to learn language, Barbara Kisilevsky, a nursing professor at Queens University in Ontario, told ABC News. Kisilevsky conducted the research with a team of psychologists from Queens and obstetricians in Hangzhou, China. According to a Queens University press release, research had already established newborn infants preference for their mothers voice, but this latest finding demonstrates unborn babies also prefer their mothers voice to unfamiliar female voices. Since the same results were achieved in Canada as in China, researchers determined the findings were universal and not culturally based. Its good to know that in both cultures, we got the same results, Kisilevsky said. Kisilevsky and researchers at Zhejiang University tested 60 women in the final stage of pregnancy. The mothers were tape-recorded as they read a poem out loud. Half the babies then heard a 2-minute recording of their own mother. The other half heard an unfamiliar mothers voice. Researchers found that the babies responded to their own mothers voice with heart-rate acceleration and to an unfamiliar female voice with heart-rate deceleration. Deceleration of the heart rate is an attention mechanism, Kisilevsky told ABC News. The heartbeat of babies who heard an unfamiliar voice slowed down, she continued, because they were paying close attention to a voice they did not recognize. These results tell us that the fetuses heard and responded to both voices and that there was sustained attention to both voices, noted Kisilevsky. But, because they responded differently to the two voices, we know they had to recognize their own mothers voice. Kisilevskys team is now investigating unborn childrens response to the fathers voice and the ability of unborn babies to differentiate between English and Mandarin.
