==> How To Prevent Meltdowns and Tantrums In Children With High-Functioning Autism and Asperger's
==> Parenting System that Significantly Reduces Defiant Behavior in Teens with Aspergers and High-Functioning Autism
We are a family that consists of Grandmother and Mother of an intelligent and very verbal, highly functioning autistic fourteen year old girl. The three of us have lived together since her birth and have known things have not been quite right from the beginning. She has since been diagnosed as being on the autistic spectrum but we have not received a great deal of professional help in our small Georgia town. We have tried to keep informed via the internet and have raised her with lots of love and the knowledge that we have acquired from the net and other various sources. Now at fourteen she has this giant attitude that we are the enemy, in addition to her social immaturity and other problems. Only now is she becoming hard to deal with.
Hi Anonymous. Remember that your 14-year-old girl is also a 14-year-old girl...not just a child with Aspergers and that all girls develop attitude at this age (I have 1 14-yera-old too). Keeping this in mind will help you keep perspective, that is another - admittedly difficult - phase that parents have to navigate. Of course the overlay of Aspergers won't help but 'read' your child as both a teenager and an Aspie. A good, plain teenager book is 'Yes, Your Teen is Crazy!' by Michael Bradley.
My 18 year old son has the development of a 12/13 year old. He didn't fit in at school as he was the target of bullying. For the past 2 years he has been home schooled and we have encouraged him to become part of a local cycling group. The problem he tries to fit in and in the process will make quite inappropriate conversation ie swearing and making comments of a sexual nature towards a fellow rider's girl friend. I tried to discuss this with him and he was mortified and of course denied it all. He has had quite a large collection of teenage boy naked pictures on his phone in the past but is extremely uneasy in relation to anything of a female/male nature. He finds it all "smutty" How do we deal with this behaviour?
my daughter is 13 next week. she was diagnosed as an aspie at 7 years old. She hates herself, adults (thinks they are sex crazed disgusting creatures), hates people in general. Has become violent, striking her younger siblings and me, thinks I'm disgusting and blames me for bringing her into this awful world. She maintains a 4.0 in school. Today she picked up a knife and threatened herself and me with it. Risperdal, prozac and therapy have brought little improvement, while we have spent thousands of dollars. I'm so depressed, I fantasize about running away:-(
My son is 15 and I am still trying to get a diagnosis. Waited years, finally in one week and one day he will get the tests he needs. The school believes he has asperger's I'm starting to accept that myself. I noticed he took interest in both sexes. One thing I discussed with him is not looking at or accepting pornograpy from other teenagers explaining if they happen to end up being under 18 that it could be considered child pornograpy and he could get in a significant amount of trouble for that. After my divorce I also became aware his father was looking at pornograpy of all ages including minors which I had to report to the FBI, because it was on the computer that was left in my home. Being there was only one password on the computer there was no valid way to prove he did it and he refused a lie detector test which cannot be forced in NYS. Anyhow, I think it is important you explain to him the possible consequences and explain that he may think someone is of age but they could be lYing about their age. Also explain there are dangerous people out there praying on young men and women and he needs to be extra careful. Make sure when you tell him this you say it in a way that you just want to confirm with him he already knows this. Well, at least that works for me. Basically, this way your son doesn't feel like you think he is dumb, etc, you just want to confirm he knows. Then let him ask questions about it. Don't speak in a stern voice, but a concerned understanding voice. When explaining inappropriate behaviors explain in a calm voice why these things are not appropriate and I find trying to help draw a picture for the child of how they may feel in that person's shoes helps them to develop empathy. I'm not a medical professional clearly, but I am pretty good at dealing with human relations of different sorts. Teaching empathy by putting the child in that person's shoes can really help develop it. My son finds the need to masterbate. I don't stop him, it took some time to help him to realize that needs to be done in private though and soap is not a good tool to use. I buy him lotion and I let him be on that. I do suggest if your son age 18 is going to insist on looking at pornograpy buy him magazines that are much less dangerous than the internet, applications or text messages. At least you know those magazines are of age. If you are completely bothered by him looking at the pornograpy I'm not sure what to suggest because any teenager, even "normal" teenagers tend to rebell against the parent if the parent will not allow something. When me son started having an obsession with girl toys when he was younger, it only got worse if I denied him them, so I learned to buy them and act as if I accepted it. He eventually grew out of it and I think it was faster growth from it because I didn't hold him back. With the inappropriate speaking to women I think mom or other important female in his life should give an example of how you felt violated when someone did that to you, or how you would. Explain how it made you feel and then try to help him to put himself in those shoes. It may take a few talks but it can help him to start to develop the empathy for that situation. Also explain how in the work force a person could be sued or fired for sexual harassment and that he needs to take that into consideration that practicing now could help him with his future. My son thinks he should cus in basically every sentence. It's very difficult and I'm still working with him on that one. Godo luck and God bless. Remember God put him with you because you can make him his best!
My son loves to pull the knife garbage. I try to keep a calm voice with it and remind him he is afraid of death. I use the old fashioned Catholic idiology that suicidal people go to hell. I don't believe that but he doesn't need to know that. Seems to work for me. I just keep a calm voice, I don't try to grab the knife, I tell him to put it down, put it back where he got it from, ex dishes, and offer to talk to him about what is upsetting him. You may want to try this with her. Also I explain to him he is my life and how much I really do love him. I often tell him I agree some people are just bad people, but I try to find a positive in everyone, even the bad people. It's helped me get through some bad situations myself. You could tell her you know so and so is bad like this, but I know this or that is a good thing. The child may or may not agree. It doesn't matter your child heard your words and how you are trying to find a good and the example is being shown. Do it over and over. Try to avoid talking negative about people around her. Good luck, God bless. Remember God put her with you because you will help her the best to grow. We all want to run away sometimes, but you know you really can't. Stick with it, you are doing good. She is a teenager and teenagers will be teenagers no matter ASD or not. :-)
My 15 year old aspie has so much rage that can be triggered at the drop of a hat. Im a single mom and i dont know how to deal with him anymore...he also smokes pot...he has sobbed on my bedroom floor before claiming that weed is the only thing that helps him feel normal and sleep...i have tried to be understanding and have an open mind that maybe it does...i hate weed...ive watched it wreck havic on my 20 yr olds life but i havnt actually done resesrch on if it calms aspies...i never search his room and rarely comment when i smell it on him...i feel so overehelmed and discouraged and wldnt know how to stop him anyway...if i try it sends him into a rage...so today he wanted his birthday cash...i normally give kids $100 for bday but this year said i wld hold his until he thpught of something he wanted...wasnt going to give him cash to be spent on weed...i dobt know how to stop the habit but i wont support it. His bday was a few months ago...he said he didnt want anything...well today he decided he wanted the cash...i said no...he was furious...stupidest thing ever that i wld "steal" his bday $...tells me how much he hates me, im f**king stupid, he wishes i wld die...then when i made some comment abt how it bresks my heart he smokes weed he went absolutely ballistic...said he wants to kill himself cuz he cant stand me so much. Im so weary...any encouragement? Or wisdom? I dont need judgement plz...im weary enough
Hi Amy. I have a 13 year old Aspie who has been talking about weed. His Asperger's condition and his desperate need of "emancipation" from me mainly makes him angry with me and my husband. I am convinced any teen should learn that it is a MUST to attend the chores around the house:take the trash, do laundry, do the dishes, learn how to cook etc etc. Maybe your son already helps around the house....but until I stopped doing everything for my son...he did not stop with the cursing and battle struggles. Say no to weed at least he is 17 and explain to him that you will buy for him when the time comes, in a controlled environment. He should be making his breakfast, his bed, his laundry, your laundry, cooking or even working part time for minimal wage to get in contact with other people and to learn how difficult it is to make $100.
I believe we are in a society that we give in too easy because we are tired and we do not want make them upset... My son uses his "aggressiveness" to intimidate me for me to give in. I made this mistake before...not anymore. It is very hard and exhausting when you say no to an Aspie...but if it is time to say NO, say NO. It might get worse before it gets better...but insist Amy. You are a great mom because you love him...and even though he says he hates you....they actually hate the fact they really need us so much. Help him to need you less and less each day. He will love you later. Good luck. Vivi
It's sad reading the comments here because what I see most is people not getting the support they need.
This is a very, very good list which also could apply to any teens and me hope makes at least a little difference for struggling parents.
I learned a lot of this by trial and error myself just from parenting four teens (1 diagnosed aspie male, 1 suspected female). I wish I had the ability to write it down this well.
I think being Aspie myself had advantages as I was able to empathise (in that Aspie objective-analytical way) and try to imagine what would work for me.
Only comment is I wish the article could have used a picture with both an angry boy and girl. The picture tends to implicitly and, of course, unintentionally, genderise Aspergers - and aggression - as a boy thing to anyone who doesn't read the article thoroughly.
This still prevalent stereotype of Aspergers being a boy thing makes it really difficult for parents of girls with Aspergers and one that we need to break down at every opportunity.
I think as recognition and acceptance improves, you will see a much more even distribution of Aspergers between male and female.
I have an ASPIE Step-son and I have to say I have lost the battle. I am weary every day from his reactivity, his negativity, his omnipresence and his oppositional approach to EVERYTHING I say.I just want it to stop. If he moved out I would feel enormous relief. Of Course, his mother would be devastated, so I keep doing my best to stay quiet and not interact.
Unfortunately, nothing works with this boy. We've tried specialists until we are penniless. He is a law unto himself and thinks he has smarter than Einstein!
I've decided that life will have to teach him his lessons, not me.
So, sometimes, even the experts can't help.
Not sure what I want by writing this, but here it is nonetheless. Thanks, Solomon
omg - I could have WRITTEN your comment - it's like your are speaking for me - only difference is us is that you're a stepdad and I'm a stepmom - have tried everything, have seen counselors, just can't think of anything else to try - Dad is just NO match for him! I too have just given up! Just hang in there - that's all I know for us to do - just wanted you to know you were NOT alone!
Kathy in LA
Hi Kathy,
well.... that was written in October...since then a couple of things....Just prior to Christmas I decided that I was going to move out when finances permitted because life is not meant to be lived this way!.... and secondly...Step Son was given a new laptop for Christmas and has been a different boy since...by different I mean pleasant, cooperative. I'd almost say agreeable! However, I don't expect it to last...I expect that once the shine of the new PC has worn off and he is back at school, then he will revert to type.I might be proven wrong of course?????????????
But his change in behavior has me doubting my decision to move out...but I still think it is the most appropriate course of action as his mother is ASD and has NO IDEA how it impact on us. She thinks she sees things clearly - BUT SHE DOESN'T!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyway, life goes on until I can move out.
Dear Amy,
I know that this is now 2019 but I wanted to let you know that I know exactly how you feel. My son is now 18 in 2 months. His journey with weed has been horrendous.. he's dropped out of school, we have the police and ambulance service virtually every week. He's taken mdma, lsd, sleeping tablets, weed, alcohol, diazepam all in one go.. A and E twice in one week yet no help. He still says that the weed is the only thing that helped his depression, . I paid for it in the end and gave it him every day but made him promise not to take the other drugs off the dark web(£2 for lsd by the way!). I'm exhausted, done in, in pain.. no one can relate! Yet...
Suddenly he GOT A JOB! He said he's realised that weed is not helping him anymore.. he's starting on Monday.. so PRAYING that he won't spend the wages on drugs.. but as you see.. everything is a phase... I mean he was BAD... we have no doors and the ones left have holes in...
But you never know how long each one will last... I understand your pain. Hang in..
Solomon, I'm in the same boat as you. Only it's my step daughter. She has my wife so battered down that she just tries to keep her happy instead of actually raising her. Theres some days she is an amazing kid, then theres other days shes screaming at the 6 and 10 year old. It's like living with a bully who controls our lives. I'm more of a disciplinarian to be brutally honest and anytime I have to step in I am the bad guy. Its put some devastation in our marriage and I don't know if it will ever be better, but I'm always hoping. Best of luck to you and I've felt like stepping away too.
I have a thirteen year old high functioning autistic daughter. She has so much rage right now and also uses passive aggression. She refuses to do chores, curses at me, and screams and breaks things if she gets at all "in trouble." She breaks her siblings' things and says she will kill me and herself. But these out outbursts are mostly to draw a reaction. She has gotten way worse since my ex and I divorced. I've called a ton of counseling places, but they're all backed up for months and months. A counselor at the school was supposed to work with her but hasn't yet. She isn't like this at school or with her dad (who is kind of distant) but is horrible with me. For example, she started teasing and threatening our dog. I told her this is abuse and not allowed, but it only got worse. I tried to ignore it but she got worse and I'm sorry, I'm not tolerating it, so I got mad and took privileges away, like her phone. She threw things and called me a f'en b*tch. I have no family here. Her dad is three hrs away and I have two other children who don't need to be subjected to this. I'm on the verge of asking her dad to take custody of her but I don't want to just give up on her. It is true that there is so little help out there.

With a Little Help from His Friends: Alum Gets Job through MIIS Connection
Monterey Institute graduate David Reichbaum (MPA '09) had been actively searching for a job for five months when Emily Newman (MAITP '09) recommended to her supervisors that they hire David to replace her as Recycling Technician for the City of Monterey. During his studies at the Monterey Institute, David participated in the voluntary Development Practicum (DPMI plus), combining three weeks of intensive coursework with a three month internship in Peru where he worked on sustainable community building projects. He will now work with the City of Monterey to make recycling easier and more efficient through outreach and coordinating efforts across the community.
David had signed up to volunteer for the Monterey "Green Team" project without knowing that it was under the supervision of his future boss, Angela Brantley. His week-long stint as a volunteer thus in effect turned out to be one long job interview, with the formal session taking place at the end of the week.
David says searching for a job in this economy was challenging "to say the least." While looking for a job to suit his education and interests, he supported himself through two part-time jobs working as a tutor and caterer. "Confidence, persistence, flexibility and creativity are your best assets" offers David, but he adds that the best leads will come through personal contacts. The dozens of applications he sent blindly yielded few replies, but several positive responses came through leads obtained by first-, second- or even third-hand connections.

Product Manager Framework: Jobs to Be Done
For as long as we can remember, innovation has been a top priority—and a top frustration—for leaders. In a recent McKinsey poll, 84% of global executives reported that innovation was extremely important to their growth strategies, but a staggering 94% were dissatisfied with their organizations' innovation performance. Most people would agree that the vast majority of innovations fall far short of ambitions.
On paper, this makes no sense. Never have businesses known more about their customers. Thanks to the big data revolution, companies now can collect an enormous variety and volume of customer information, at unprecedented speed, and perform sophisticated analyses of it. Many firms have established structured, disciplined innovation processes and brought in highly skilled talent to run them. Most firms carefully calculate and mitigate innovations' risks. From the outside, it looks as if companies have mastered a precise, scientific process. But for most of them, innovation is still painfully hit-or-miss.
What has gone so wrong?
The fundamental problem is, most of the masses of customer data companies create is structured to show correlations: This customer looks like that one, or 68% of customers say they prefer version A to version B. While it's exciting to find patterns in the numbers, they don't mean that one thing actually caused another. And though it's no surprise that correlation isn't causality, we suspect that most managers have grown comfortable basing decisions on correlations.
Why is this misguided? Consider the case of one of this article's coauthors, Clayton Christensen. He's 64 years old. He's six feet eight inches tall. His shoe size is 16. He and his wife have sent all their children off to college. He drives a Honda minivan to work. He has a lot of characteristics, but none of them has caused him to go out and buy the New York Times. His reasons for buying the paper are much more specific. He might buy it because he needs something to read on a plane or because he's a basketball fan and it's March Madness time. Marketers who collect demographic or psychographic information about him—and look for correlations with other buyer segments—are not going to capture those reasons.
After decades of watching great companies fail, we've come to the conclusion that the focus on correlation—and on knowing more and more about customers—is taking firms in the wrong direction. What they really need to home in on is the progress that the customer is trying to make in a given circumstance—what the customer hopes to accomplish. This is what we've come to call the job to be done.
We all have many jobs to be done in our lives. Some are little (pass the time while waiting in line); some are big (find a more fulfilling career). Some surface unpredictably (dress for an out-of-town business meeting after the airline lost my suitcase); some regularly (pack a healthful lunch for my daughter to take to school). When we buy a product, we essentially "hire" it to help us do a job. If it does the job well, the next time we're confronted with the same job, we tend to hire that product again. And if it does a crummy job, we "fire" it and look for an alternative. (We're using the word "product" here as shorthand for any solution that companies can sell; of course, the full set of "candidates" we consider hiring can often go well beyond just offerings from companies.)
This insight emerged over the past two decades in a course taught by Clay at Harvard Business School. (See "Marketing Malpractice," HBR, December 2005.) The theory of jobs to be done was developed in part as a complement to the theory of disruptive innovation—which at its core is about competitive responses to innovation: It explains and predicts the behavior of companies in danger of being disrupted and helps them understand which new entrants pose the greatest threats.
The focus on knowing more about customers has taken firms in the wrong direction.
But disruption theory doesn't tell you how to create products and services that customers want to buy. Jobs-to-be-done theory does. It transforms our understanding of customer choice in a way that no amount of data ever could, because it gets at the causal driver behind a purchase.
The Business of Moving Lives
A decade ago, Bob Moesta, an innovation consultant and a friend of ours, was charged with helping bolster sales of new condominiums for a Detroit-area building company. The company had targeted downsizers—retirees looking to move out of the family home and divorced single parents. Its units were priced to appeal to that segment—$120,000 to $200,000—with high-end touches to give a sense of luxury. "Squeakless" floors. Triple-waterproof basements. Granite counters and stainless steel appliances. A well-staffed sales team was available six days a week for any prospective buyer who walked in the door. A generous marketing campaign splashed ads across the relevant Sunday real estate sections.
The units got lots of traffic, but few visits ended up converting to sales. Maybe bay windows would be better? Focus group participants thought that sounded good. So the architect scrambled to add bay windows (and any other details that the focus group suggested) to a few showcase units. Still sales did not improve.
Although the company had done a cost-benefit analysis of all the details in each unit, it actually had very little idea what made the difference between a tire kicker and a serious buyer. It was easy to speculate about reasons for poor sales: bad weather, underperforming salespeople, the looming recession, holiday slowdowns, the condos' location. But instead of examining those factors, Moesta took an unusual approach: He set out to learn from the people who had bought units what job they were hiring the condominiums to do. "I asked people to draw a timeline of how they got here," he recalls. The first thing he learned, piecing together patterns in scores of interviews, was what did not explain who was most likely to buy. There wasn't a clear demographic or psychographic profile of the new-home buyers, even though all were downsizers. Nor was there a definitive set of features that buyers valued so much that it tipped their decisions.
But the conversations revealed an unusual clue: the dining room table. Prospective customers repeatedly told the company they wanted a big living room, a large second bedroom for visitors, and a breakfast bar to make entertaining easy and casual; on the other hand, they didn't need a formal dining room. And yet, in Moesta's conversations with actual buyers, the dining room table came up repeatedly. "People kept saying, 'As soon as I figured out what to do with my dining room table, then I was free to move,'" reports Moesta. He and his colleagues couldn't understand why the dining room table was such a big deal. In most cases people were referring to well-used, out-of-date furniture that might best be given to charity—or relegated to the local dump.
But as Moesta sat at his own dining room table with his family over Christmas, he suddenly understood. Every birthday was spent around that table. Every holiday. Homework was spread out on it. The table represented family.
What was stopping buyers from making the decision to move, he hypothesized, was not a feature that the construction company had failed to offer but rather the anxiety that came with giving up something that had profound meaning. The decision to buy a six-figure condo, it turned out, often hinged on a family member's willingness to take custody of a clunky piece of used furniture.
That realization helped Moesta and his team begin to grasp the struggle potential home buyers faced. "I went in thinking we were in the business of new-home construction," he recalls. "But I realized we were in the business of moving lives."
With this understanding of the job to be done, dozens of small but important changes were made to the offering. For example, the architect managed to create space in the units for a dining room table by reducing the size of the second bedroom. The company also focused on easing the anxiety of the move itself: It provided moving services, two years' worth of storage, and a sorting room within the condo development where new owners could take their time making decisions about what to discard.
The insight into the job the customers needed done allowed the company to differentiate its offering in ways competitors weren't likely to copy—or even comprehend. The new perspective changed everything. The company actually raised prices by $3,500, which included (profitably) covering the cost of moving and storage. By 2007, when industry sales were off by 49% and the market was plummeting, the developers had actually grown business by 25%.
Getting a Handle on the Job to Be Done
Successful innovations help consumers to solve problems—to make the progress they need to, while addressing any anxieties or inertia that might be holding them back. But we need to be clear: "Job to be done" is not an all-purpose catchphrase. Jobs are complex and multifaceted; they require precise definition. Here are some principles to keep in mind:
"Job" is shorthand for what an individual really seeks to accomplish in a given circumstance.
But this goal usually involves more than just a straightforward task; consider the experience a person is trying to create. What the condo buyers sought was to transition into a new life, in the specific circumstance of downsizing—which is completely different from the circumstance of buying a first home.
The circumstances are more important than customer characteristics, product attributes, new technologies, or trends.
Before they understood the underlying job, the developers focused on trying to make the condo units ideal. But when they saw innovation through the lens of the customers' circumstances, the competitive playing field looked totally different. For example, the new condos were competing not against other new condos but against the idea of no move at all.
Good innovations solve problems that formerly had only inadequate solutions—or no solution.
Prospective condo buyers were looking for simpler lives without the hassles of home ownership. But to get that, they thought, they had to endure the stress of selling their current homes, wading through exhausting choices about what to keep. Or they could stay where they were, even though that solution would become increasingly imperfect as they aged. It was only when given a third option that addressed all the relevant criteria that shoppers became buyers.
Jobs are never simply about function—they have powerful social and emotional dimensions.
Creating space in the condo for a dining room table reduced a very real anxiety that prospective buyers had. They could take the table with them if they couldn't find a home for it. And having two years' worth of storage and a sorting room on the premises gave condo buyers permission to work slowly through the emotions involved in deciding what to keep and what to discard. Reducing their stress made a catalytic difference.
These principles are described here in a business-to-consumer context, but jobs are just as important in B2B settings. For an example, see the sidebar "Doing Jobs for B2B Customers."
Designing Offerings Around Jobs
A deep understanding of a job allows you to innovate without guessing what trade-offs your customers are willing to make. It's a kind of job spec.
Of the more than 20,000 new products evaluated in Nielsen's 2012–2016 Breakthrough Innovation report, only 92 had sales of more than $50 million in year one and sustained sales in year two, excluding close-in line extensions. (Coauthor Taddy Hall is the lead author of Nielsen's report.) On the surface the list of hits might seem random—International Delight Iced Coffee, Hershey's Reese's Minis, and Tidy Cats LightWeight, to name just a few—but they have one thing in common. According to Nielsen, every one of them nailed a poorly performed and very specific job to be done. International Delight Iced Coffee let people enjoy in their homes the taste of coffeehouse iced drinks they'd come to love. And thanks to Tidy Cats LightWeight litter, millions of cat owners no longer had to struggle with getting heavy, bulky boxes off store shelves, into car trunks, and up the stairs into their homes.
How did Hershey's achieve a breakout success with what might seem to be just another version of the decades-old peanut butter cup? Its researchers began by exploring the circumstances in which Reese's enthusiasts were "firing" the current product formats. They discovered an array of situations—driving the car, standing in a crowded subway, playing a video game—in which the original large format was too big and messy, while the smaller, individually wrapped cups were a hassle (opening them required two hands). In addition, the accumulation of the cups' foil wrappers created a guilt-inducing tally of consumption: I had that many? When the company focused on the job that smaller versions of Reese's were being hired to do, it created Reese's Minis. They have no foil wrapping to leave a telltale trail, and they come in a resealable flat-bottom bag that a consumer can easily dip a single hand into. The results were astounding: $235 million in the first two years' sales and the birth of a breakthrough category extension.
Jobs aren't just about function—they have powerful social and emotional dimensions.
Creating customer experiences.
Identifying and understanding the job to be done are only the first steps in creating products that customers want—especially ones they will pay premium prices for. It's also essential to create the right set of experiences for the purchase and use of the product and then integrate those experiences into a company's processes.
When a company does that, it's hard for competitors to catch up. Take American Girl dolls. If you don't have a preteen girl in your life, you may not understand how anyone could pay more than a hundred dollars for a doll and shell out hundreds more for clothing, books, and accessories. Yet to date the business has sold 29 million dolls, and it racks up more than $500 million in sales annually.
What's so special about American Girls? Well, it's not the dolls themselves. They come in a variety of styles and ethnicities and are lovely, sturdy dolls. They're nice, but they aren't amazing. Yet for nearly 30 years they have dominated their market. When you see a product or service that no one has successfully copied, the product itself is rarely the source of the long-term competitive advantage.
American Girl has prevailed for so long because it's not really selling dolls: It's selling an experience. Individual dolls represent different times and places in U.S. history and come with books that relate each doll's backstory. For girls, the dolls provide a rich opportunity to engage their imaginations, connect with friends who also own the dolls, and create unforgettable memories with their mothers and grandmothers. For parents—the buyers—the dolls help engage their daughters in a conversation about the generations of women that came before them—about their struggles, their strength, their values and traditions.
American Girl founder Pleasant Rowland came up with the idea when shopping for Christmas presents for her nieces. She didn't want to give them hypersexualized Barbies or goofy Cabbage Patch Kids aimed at younger children. The dolls—and their worlds—reflect Rowland's nuanced understanding of the job preteen girls hire the dolls to do: help articulate their feelings and validate who they are—their identity, their sense of self, and their cultural and racial background—and make them feel they can surmount the challenges in their lives.
There are dozens of American Girl dolls representing a broad cross section of profiles. Kaya, for example, is a young girl from a Northwest Native American tribe in the late 18th century. Her backstory tells of her leadership, compassion, courage, and loyalty. There's Kirsten Larson, a Swedish immigrant who settles in the Minnesota territory and faces hardships and challenges but triumphs in the end. And so on. A significant part of the allure is the well-written, historically accurate books about each character's life.
Rowland and her team thought through every aspect of the experience required to perform the job. The dolls were never sold in traditional toy stores. They were available only through mail order or at American Girl stores, which were initially located in just a few major metropolitan areas. The stores have doll hospitals that can repair tangled hair or fix broken parts. Some have restaurants in which parents, children, and their dolls can enjoy a kid-friendly menu—or where parents can host birthday parties. A trip to the American Girl store has become a special day out, making the dolls a catalyst for family experiences that will be remembered forever.
No detail was too small to consider. Take the sturdy red-and-pink boxes the dolls come in. Rowland remembers the debate over whether to wrap them with narrow cardboard strips, known as "belly bands." Because the bands each added 2 cents and 27 seconds to the packaging process, the designers suggested skipping them. Rowland says she rejected the idea out of hand: "I said, 'You're not getting it. What has to happen to make this special to the child? I don't want her to see some shrink-wrapped thing coming out of the box. The fact that she has to wait just a split second to get the band off and open the tissue under the lid makes it exciting to open the box. It's not the same as walking down the aisle in the toy store and picking a Barbie off the shelf.'"
In recent years Toys "R" Us, Walmart, and even Disney have all tried to challenge American Girl's success with similar dolls—at a small fraction of the price. Though American Girl, which was acquired by Mattel, has experienced some sales declines in the past two years, to date no competitor has managed to make a dent in its market dominance. Why? Rowland thinks that competitors saw themselves in the "doll business," whereas she never lost sight of why the dolls were cherished: the experiences and stories and connections that they enable.
Aligning processes.
The final piece of the puzzle is processes—how the company integrates across functions to support the job to be done. Processes are often hard to see, but they matter profoundly. As MIT's Edgar Schein has discussed, processes are a critical part of an organization's unspoken culture. They tell people inside the company, "This is what matters most to us." Focusing processes on the job to be done provides clear guidance to everyone on the team. It's a simple but powerful way of making sure a company doesn't unintentionally abandon the insights that brought it success in the first place.
A good case in point is Southern New Hampshire University, which has been lauded by U.S. News & World Report (and other publications) as one of the most innovative colleges in America. After enjoying a 34% compounded annual growth rate for six years, SNHU was closing in on $535 million in annual revenues at the end of fiscal 2016.
Like many similar academic institutions, SNHU once struggled to find a way to distinguish itself and survive. The university's longtime bread-and-butter strategy had relied on appealing to a traditional student body: 18-year-olds, fresh out of high school, continuing their education. Marketing and outreach were generic, targeting everyone, and so were the policies and delivery models that served the school.
SNHU had an online "distance learning" academic program that was "a sleepy operation on a nondescript corner of the main campus," as president Paul LeBlanc describes it. Yet it had attracted a steady stream of students who wanted to resume an aborted run at a college education. Though the online program was a decade old, it was treated as a side project, and the university put almost no resources into it.
On paper, both traditional and online students might look similar. A 35-year-old and an 18-year-old working toward an accounting degree need the same courses, right? But LeBlanc and his team saw that the job the online students were hiring SNHU to do had almost nothing in common with the job that "coming of age" undergraduates hired the school to do. On average, online students are 30 years old, juggling work and family, and trying to squeeze in an education. Often they still carry debt from an earlier college experience. They're not looking for social activities or a campus scene. They need higher education to provide just four things: convenience, customer service, credentials, and speedy completion times. That, the team realized, presented an enormous opportunity.
SNHU's online program was in competition not with local colleges but with other national online programs, including those offered by both traditional colleges and for-profit schools like the University of Phoenix and ITT Technical Institute. Even more significantly, SNHU was competing with nothing. Nonconsumption. Suddenly, the market that had seemed finite and hardly worth fighting for became one with massive untapped potential.
But very few of SNHU's existing policies, structures, and processes were set up to support the actual job that online students needed done. What had to change? "Pretty much everything," LeBlanc recalls. Instead of treating online learning as a second-class citizen, he and his team made it their focus. During a session with about 20 faculty members and administrators, they charted the entire admissions process on a whiteboard. "It looked like a schematic from a nuclear submarine!" he says. The team members circled all the hurdles that SNHU was throwing up—or not helping people overcome—in that process. And then, one by one, they eliminated those hurdles and replaced them with experiences that would satisfy the job that online students needed to get done. Dozens of decisions came out of this new focus.
Here are some key questions the team worked through as it redesigned SNHU's processes:
What experiences will help customers make the progress they're seeking in a given circumstance?
For older students, information about financial aid is critical; they need to find out if continuing their education is even possible, and time is of the essence. Often they're researching options late at night, after a long day, when the kids have finally gone to sleep. So responding to a prospective student's inquiry with a generic e-mail 24 hours later would often miss the window of opportunity. Understanding the context, SNHU set an internal goal of a follow-up phone call within eight and a half minutes. The swift personal response makes prospective students much more likely to choose SNHU.
What obstacles must be removed?
Decisions about a prospect's financial aid package and how much previous college courses would count toward an SNHU degree were resolved within days instead of weeks or months.
What are the social, emotional, and functional dimensions of the job?
Ads for the online program were completely reoriented toward later-life learners. They attempted to resonate not just with the functional dimensions of the job, such as getting the training needed to advance in a career, but also with the emotional and social ones, such as the pride people feel in earning their degrees. One ad featured an SNHU bus roaming the country handing out large framed diplomas to online students who couldn't be on campus for graduation. "Who did you get this degree for?" the voice-over asks, as the commercial captures glowing graduates in their homes. "I got it for me," one woman says, hugging her diploma. "I did this for my mom," beams a 30-something man. "I did it for you, bud," one father says, holding back tears as his young son chirps, "Congratulations, Daddy!"
But perhaps most important, SNHU realized that enrolling prospects in their first class was only the beginning of doing the job. The school sets up each new online student with a personal adviser, who stays in constant contact—and notices red flags even before the students might. This support is far more critical to continuing education students than traditional ones, because so many obstacles in their everyday lives conspire against them. Haven't checked out this week's assignment by Wednesday or Thursday? Your adviser will touch base with you. The unit test went badly? You can count on a call from your adviser to see not only what's going on with the class but what's going on in your life. Your laptop is causing you problems? An adviser might just send you a new one. This unusual level of assistance is a key reason that SNHU's online programs have extremely high Net Promoter Scores (9.6 out of 10) and a graduation rate—about 50%—topping that of virtually every community college (and far above that of costlier, for-profit rivals, which have come under fire for low graduation rates).
SNHU has been open with would-be competitors, offering tours and visits to executives from other educational institutions. But the experiences and processes the university has created for online students would be difficult to copy. SNHU did not invent all its tactics. But what it has done, with laser focus, is ensure that its hundreds and hundreds of processes are tailored to the job students are hiring the school for.
Many organizations have unwittingly designed innovation processes that produce inconsistent and disappointing outcomes. They spend time and money compiling data-rich models that make them masters of description but failures at prediction. But firms don't have to continue down that path. Innovation can be far more predictable—and far more profitable—if you start by identifying jobs that customers are struggling to get done. Without that lens, you're doomed to hit-or-miss innovation. With it, you can leave relying on luck to your competitors.

What are some things that make a great haunted house?
Haunted houses are great Halloween tradition and can actually be really fun to set up. From hanging skeletons to jumping clowns you can make your haunted house as large and extravagant as you please. The most important factor of a haunted house is darkness. It doesn't have to be pitch-black as you'll often have glowing props or candles, but darkness is a must. It helps if you cover the walls in black sheets or black plastic trash bags. Features you can add to your haunted house include a fog machine, moving/talking props, shrunken heads, specimen jars with eyeballs and internal organs, bloody knives, bleeding hearts, flickering lights, scary music, sounds of an evil laugh or sounds of pain, coffins, clowns, skeletons, and skulls with glowing eyes. It's also a good idea to have a few people dressed up in scary costumes that scare the guests as they wander through.

The course utilized a blog both to continue the discussion outside the classroom, and to provide training for the students in blogging, video compression, and video sharing.
Students used the blog to post reflections and ideas, to share and comment on the video assignments, and to respond to each other's posts.
The film "Land of Confusion" was presented in class by the film's director, Jeremy Zerechak, a Penn State grad. Zerechak discussed filmmaking with the students and answered questions about his film. A number of the students wrote responses to the film on the blog. Watch a trailer of the film.
A number of posts also reference a This American Life episode entitled "The Devil in Me." Students in the class were asked to listen to the veteran-related portion of this radio program and to write a post about how they would tell the story visually. Listen to the story.

It's not the type of plane either Kent Brantly or Nancy Writebol likely planned to take home.
But when health officials evacuate the two American aid workers infected with Ebola in west Africa, it will be the plane they take.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has outfitted a Gulfstream jet with an isolation pod designed and built by the U.S. Defense Department, the CDC and a private company. The pod, officially called an Aeromedical Biological Containment System, is a portable, tentlike device that ensures the flight crew and others on the flight remain safe from an infectious disease.
A U.S.-contracted medical charter flight left Cartersville, Georgia, Thursday afternoon, to evacuate the Americans, a source familiar with the travel plans told CNN. At least one of them will be brought to Emory University near the headquarters of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta, Georgia, hospital officials told CNN's Dr. Sanjay Gupta.
The CDC raised its travel warning for Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone from Level 2 to Level 3 on Thursday, warning against any nonessential travel to the region. Since 2003, the agency has only issued Level 3 alerts on two occasions: during the outbreak of SARS, severe acute respiratory syndrome, in 2003, and in the aftermath of the 2010 Haiti earthquake.
The CDC is sending 50 additional personnel to the three countries, CDC director Dr. Tom Frieden said. They will be working to speed up laboratory testing, trace potentially infected people and strengthen the local health care systems.
Ebola is believed to have killed 729 people in Guinea, Liberia, Sierra Leone and Nigeria between March 1 and July 27, according to the World Health Organization. Stopping this particular epidemic could take months. It's like fighting a forest fire, Frieden says — if you leave even one burning ember, the epidemic can start again.
"It's not going to be quick. It's not going to be easy. But we know what to do."
Evacuating Brantly and Writebol was ultimately up to the aid organizations they work for, Frieden said. Moving them could do more harm than the good that might come with better treatment options in a developed country.
"I can tell you that airplanes are tough environments," said Dr. Lee Norman, chief medical officer at The University of Kansas Hospital. Norman was a flight surgeon for 16 years in the Air Force. "You want to have the shortest trip possible for the best quality medical care. That is as available in Europe as it is in the U.S. It's a matter of how much flight they can handle."
The American health care system is well-prepared for Ebola patients, experts say.
"I think any major medical center can take care of any Ebola patient," said Dr. William Schaffner, an expert on infectious diseases at Vanderbilt University's School of Medicine. "We have isolation rooms we use all the time."
These isolation rooms are used for patients suspected to have tuberculosis, SARS, Middle East respiratory syndrome or another infectious disease. Schaffner said not much would be different for an Ebola patient, though more stringent precautions might be taken to ensure health care workers are following all protocols. "But all that is minor compared to the adjustments you have to make during influenza (season), for example," he said.
The CDC has quarantine stations around the country staffed 24/7. And most hospital staffs have been alerted and are on the lookout for Ebola symptoms, said Dr. Eric Legome, chief of emergency medicine at Kings County Hospital in New York. Symptoms include fever, headache, diarrhea and vomiting. Some patients have trouble breathing.
Doctors are asking patients with these symptoms if they have traveled recently to the three countries primarily affected by the Ebola outbreak: Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia. They're also asking if patients have been in contact with anyone else who has traveled to the region lately.
Legome said hospitals have a low threshold to isolate patients, meaning anyone who is even remotely suspected of being infected will immediately be put in an isolated ICU room so health officials can run tests.
"They would most likely be flying in civilian aircraft and seek care in civilian hospitals, urgent care clinics, physicians' offices and emergency departments," said Norman. "That is exactly why this awareness is important for all caregivers."
Ebola is not airborne, he said. It cannot be transmitted via coughs or sneezes. If an infected person is exhibiting symptoms, he or she can transmit the disease via bodily fluids such as blood, breast milk or semen. The virus does not die with a patient — so deceased bodies can transmit the disease.
There is no specific treatment for Ebola. Doctors can only administer what they call "supportive therapy," which means supporting the patient's own immune system as it tries to battle the infection. This usually involves intravenous fluids to prevent dehydration and shock, said Christopher Mores, associate director of Louisiana State University's Center for Experimental Infectious Diseases. This therapy for Ebola patients could also include blood or platelet transfusions and oxygen therapy.
Ebola can last two to three weeks, Mores said, so patients would remain in isolation until their symptoms subside and tests come back negative for the virus.

- In general, people like to wash items which they buy as towel, bathrobe or bed linen, and if you can see all towels are in the market, their instructions advise, to wash before use to get softer products.
- We do not suggest you to wash for this purpose, you can wash for your own cleanning, but not to get softer products.
- Our products are already soft and have absorbency.
- Machine wash 30 degree with similar colors.
- No tumble dry.
- We suggest you to hang to dry.
- Please do not use any fabric softner, and do not bleach.
- In fact we recommend staying away from softners, as they actually reduce the absorbency of the product.
- Lalay products are very soft but to keep them super soft, add a splash of white household vinegar to a rinse cycle from time to time.
- If you pull a thread, simply cut off the pulled loop with scissors. Your product will not be damaged or unravel.
- We hope this helps you to take care of your product. As always, if you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to call us +90 212 210 19 21 or write to us email@example.com

Flowers are beautiful, but the legacy of nonorganic flower production is not. True, you don't eat flowers the way you do, say, an apple. So why should you be equally concerned with the impact organic versus conventional blooms have on everyone who touches them? "The problem is that commercially grown, fresh-cut flowers are generally produced with an extensive artillery of toxic fertilizers, insecticides, and fungicides," says Gerald Prolman, an organic agricultural business development expert whose California-based company, OrganicBouquet.com, supplies flowers wholesale to natural products stores. "These chemicals can negatively affect the environment, the farmworkers who handle the flowers, and the wildlife and ecology of the region."
Here, we offer a glimpse of the organic flower industry and the great reasons to choose all-natural blossoms.
Blossoming business
Although sales of traditional flowers have held steady the past few years, sales of organic flowers in the United States grew to $16 million in 2005, up about 50 percent from the previous year, according to the Organic Trade Association.
Following the trend, Prolman's business has nearly tripled in sales each year since its inception. "When I started this company in 2001, there were no organic flowers to supply a national market," says Prolman. "Over the past few years we have developed sources in more than five countries to support our $100 million growth plans over the next five years."
World market
Seventy percent of all cut flowers sold in the United States are grown in Central and South America, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). Because of the organic trend, some ecofriendly growers have sprouted in the United States, but most distributors import their flowers. For example, OrganicBouquet.com, the country's largest ecoflower supplier, gets its flowers from Ecuador, Colombia, Holland, and Israel, as well as California and Oregon. "And we are currently working on new developments in Kenya and Ethiopia," notes Prolman.
Time to change
Of course, conventional flower farms are still the norm. Why? It's easy to douse blooms with chemicals to keep pests at bay.
It's harder to learn new farming methods that produce healthy, beautiful crops that are also pest free and promote healthy soil. Prolman, who deals with small- and large-scale organic farmers, says education is the key. "The fact is there are viable and available alternatives," he says. "It boils down to economics, experience, and support from the marketplace."
A certified flower
How can you be sure the flowers you're buying are organic?
Look for the "Veriflora Certified" seal on the plastic bouquet sleeve or on a store display. Unlike organic food, which is certified by the USDA, organic flowers are certified by the independent Scientific Certification Systems. To be certified, organic flowers must meet strict requirements for quality, agricultural practices, and social responsibility. (Food, on the other hand, becomes certified organic based solely on ingredients and agricultural practices.) According to Scientific Certification Systems, Veriflora growers must conserve environmental resources and mitigate any damage caused by farming (by restoring habitat or protecting other land, such as forests and wetlands, that's in danger of development). On the labor front, they must offer fair wages and favorable working conditions. They have to recycle or compost agricultural waste. And finally, the flowers must be grown with few or no pesticides.

Giada's Turkey Osso Bucco
Posted by ssemple74 (71)
Category: Main Courses
Subcategory: dinner, italian
Recipe Details:
Turkey Osso Bucco:
1/2 breast of turkey (cut into 6 pieces, preferably by the butcher)
1 turkey leg or 2 turkey thighs
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup all-purpose flour, for dredging
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 small onion, finely diced
1 carrot, finely diced
1 celery stalk, finely diced
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 cup dry white wine
4 cups reduce-sodium chicken broth
1 large sprig fresh rosemary
2 large sprigs fresh thyme
2 bay leaves
2 whole cloves
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 lemon, zested
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon minced rosemary leaves
Pinch salt
Pinch freshly ground black pepper
For the Turkey Osso Bucco: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Pat the turkey with paper towels to dry and ensure even browning. Season the turkey with salt and pepper. Dredge the turkey in the flour to coat.
In a heavy roasting pan large enough to fit the turkey in a single layer, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the turkey and cook until brown on both sides, about 6 minutes per side. Transfer the turkey to a plate and reserve.
In the same pan, add the onion, carrot, and celery. Season vegetables with salt. Cook until the vegetables are tender, about 6 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 1 minute. Stir in the wine and simmer until the liquid is reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Return the turkey to the pan. Add enough chicken broth to come 2/3 up the sides of the turkey. Add the herb sprigs, bay leaf, and cloves to the broth mixture. Bring the liquid to a boil over medium-high heat. Remove the pan from the heat. Cover the pan tightly with foil and transfer to the oven. Braise until the turkey is fork-tender, turning the turkey after 1 hour.
Meanwhile, for the Gremolata: Combine the chopped parsley, lemon zest, garlic, minced rosemary, and a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper in a bowl. Cover and reserve until serving the turkey.
To serve, transfer the turkey to shallow serving bowls. Season the sauce to taste with salt and pepper. Ladle the sauce over the meat. Sprinkle each piece of turkey with a large pinch of Gremolata. Serve immediately.

If you like a bit of spice, bright green serrano chiles make a zippy addition to any savory recipe. Typically smaller but hotter than jalapeños, these slender, slightly pointy peppers should look smooth and dry. (On the vine, they turn red and then yellow upon further ripening.)
Use as you would any fresh chile pepper. If you have sensitive skin, wear rubber gloves, and be careful not to touch your eyes or nose after handling. Most of chiles' heat, from the healthy compound capsaicin, is concentrated in the seeds and white membranes, so remove or retain depending on preference.
Chop serranos and add to any bottled or fresh salsa, guacamole, or fruit-based condiment, such as mango or pineapple salsa. (For a color contrast, add chopped, fiery red Fresno chiles, too.) To tame serranos' heat a bit, sauté in olive oil or butter until tender. Starches and fats neutralize chiles' heat, so fold into omelets with sour cream, stir into chili con carne with cheddar cheese, or add to bread dough or muffin batter with chopped olives.
