Reliability and validity of the power-mobility community driving assessment.
Posted in Crew, Other, Story by Admin
Reliability and validity of the power-mobility community driving assessment.
The power wheelchairs Community Driving Assessment (PCDA) is a performance-based measure designed to assess driving performance of individuals using power wheelchairs or scooters in community environments. This article reports the results of pilot testing and an evaluation of the assessment’s reliability and validity. Pilot testing was conducted with a random selection of Canadian occupational therapists working in the area of mobility. Although the response rate was very low, feedback confirmed the utility of the measure and contributed to one substantive scoring revision. Reliability and validity testing was conducted with a sample of 34 drivers. Internal consistency results were positive. Interrater reliability was fair to high but limited by the lack of variability in the scores. Construct validity hypotheses were tested on the relationships between PCDA scores and vision, perception, cognition, and environmental accessibility. Results indicated no relationships between the PCDA and perceptual and cognitive function and only a weak trend for a relationship with environmental accessibility. Concurrent validity was established: PCDA scores were positively associated with the judgments of therapists familiar with the driving performance of participants. In summary, the PCDA has moderate to good reliability, and content and concurrent validity results were found. More research is needed, particularly on the underlying constructs of successful driving performance. At this point, rehabilitation professionals and their clients are urged to use this assessment to establish driving performance rather than relying on assessments of perception, cognition, or environmental accessibility to predetermine whether someone will receive power mobility. Clinicians may find this a useful tool to identify where clients are able to drive safely in community settings, to identify specific learning needs, and, through those, to promote independent living for drivers of power-mobility devices

How to Clearly Define Your Target Market For Your Network Marketing Business

How to Clearly Define Your Target Market For Your Network Marketing Business
In building your Network Marketing business, it is critical to know exactly who your target market is. Clearly defining your target market with upfront research should always be your first step in planning for your Network Marketing business.
These are several key questions to ask yourself when doing your research.
Here’s a short list that should get you going:
* What is the demographic of your customers? e.g. income level, gender, education, age, marital status * Do they have a specific location? e.g. country, state, city, county * What do they want? * What are their key problems? * What do they currently buy?
Once you clearly define who your potential customers are, you can begin to set up your marketing strategies around them. But until you do, you should not even consider starting your Network Marketing business (or any kind of business).
People so often come up with their product which, in their eyes, are superior in quality, and then start looking for customers who can benefit from the use of this product. When people take this approach, they are at the risk of investing a lot upfront to come up with the products to sell while not really knowing whether they will sell.
While searching for the customers, they will need to store their inventories so that they can ship the products quickly as soon as they find the customers. This causes them to incur unnecessary expenses for storage and possibly lose their initial investment if they can’t find the customers to buy them.
If you can first spot a group of people who has a specific want, need, or problem they want a solution for, and then come up with the exact things they are looking for, it makes things so much easier with much less risk.
Here are a few examples:
* Starbucks ==> coffee drinkers * Borders ==> book lovers * Eye doctors ==> people with poor vision
Each of the above has a specific group of people who has specific wants, needs and problems they want a solution for. It wouldn’t have been wise for Starbucks to come up with the best tasting coffee without knowing whether there’s enough people who can and will spend $3 bucks for a cup of joe.
Now, when it comes to target markets for your Network Marketing home business, there are several possible categories depending on your approach. Here’s a list of possible target markets:
* People who have purchased a network marketing business opportunity before (or who are already in network marketing, who are currently spending money on pursuing a home based network marketing business), who already recognize their need for a network marketing business.
* People who are presently researching your Network Marketing company and seeking the best sponsor, team and upline on Google, Yahoo, MSN or even offline talking to people. These people have heard of the Network Marketing company, products, marketing system, and/or business opportunity, and are doing their “homework” to validate the information about the company, products, marketing system, and/or business opportunity and the best team to join.
* People interested in finding a way to make money, but who aren’t specifically aware that they need a Network Marketing business (yet). These people are looking in your direction with obvious interests, but are still in the “tire-kicking” stage. Until they actually spend money by starting a home based business, or invest money in learning resources (books, CDs, DVDs, seminars), they are just looking.
* People who already buy or use a related product or service of your Network Marketing company.
* People with a PROBLEM who are looking for a SOLUTION (e.g. PROBLEM = poor health; SOLUTION = high quality dietary supplements)
* People looking on the web for your specific product by name. These people are the hottest product leads.
Once you grasp which target market you want to attract to you, you simply need to start giving away valuable content that they are looking for through various point-of-contacts e.g. social networking sites, social bookmarking sites, etc.
Remember, you don’t want to chase after your target market. You want to always ATTRACT them to YOU. Give to get. Give without want. And you’ll soon be attracting them to YOU and your Network Marketing business.

Wholesale Tea Suppliers
Posted in Crew, Entertainment, Other by Admin
Wholesale Tea Suppliers
Interested in setting up a home business selling teas? Buying wholesale tea from a distributor is easier than you’d think and you could save a huge amount as opposed to the retail price. This article is a guide to tea, buying your merchandise and finding suppliers for the product.
Tea comes in thousands of varieties and has been drunk since ancient times. It is the second most popular drink in the world (second only to water!) It has, in its various kinds, however, never been more popular than now in the West. Health food fads and an enthusiasm for a more natural lifestyle has led many people to put down their coffees and take up green or herbal teas. This is an opportunity for anyone looking to retail!
Even tea from the same plant as black tea (Camellia Sinensis) can come in a huge variety of forms. Green tea is steamed, rather than fermented. Gunpowder tea comes in the form of rolled-up pellets of green tea. Oolong tea lies somewhere in between green and black. White tea is the least processed of all. Some teas are flavoured, for example with chopped jasmine flowers mixed in with the tea leaves. Aside from all these, there are a multitude of herbal and natural teas (most of which contain no actual “tea”) available - from ginseng to chamomile. Most teas that are sold in the West are actually blends of different kinds of tea, often teas from different parts of the world. Different blending according to the tastes of that country accounts for the differing flavours of black tea found in any given country.
All teas are usually made in the same manner. Buds, leaves, or twigs of the plant in question are steeped in hot water to release the flavour inside. Some types of tea are then sweetened to taste with honey or sugar (among other things). Black tea is often drunk with a small amount of milk.
Some wholesalers specialise in certain kinds of tea, or perhaps tea from a certain area. Unsurprisingly, many wholesale suppliers of tea are found in China, Japan or India.
Be sure to check all local regulations that are involved when importing any type of food product. There are usually more requirements in this category, than in other consumable selections. Be sure you have also satisfied any specific requirements as far as duties that can be substantial on all types of herbs.
This is not the only place to find distributors however, and in particular if you are looking for certified organic or fair-trade teas there are other places to look. The internet has no shortage of tea wholesalers. For example, try Republic of Tea to find suppliers of organic tea, or Celestial Seasonings, which offers a blend of natural herbal teas. These suppliers provide a more unusual product which may be more attractive to customers. Once you decide on the type of tea you want to sell, it should be easy enough to pick a supplier that suits your need.

The Sky Is The limit When You Are Considering Your Own Business

The Sky Is The limit When You Are Considering Your Own Business
If you are tired of working under someone else and feel that you have what it takes to make your own way, then you may want to think about starting your own home business. There are so many things that are possible for you to do in regards to a small home based business opportunity company, that it may take some time for you to decide what it is that you want to do. When you do come to a decision however, you will be in a position where you are in control of not only your finances but your future as well. This can be the best thing that has ever happened to you, or it can be a virtual nightmare it is entirely up to your will to succeed.
Working With People
If you feel that you have what it takes to deal with people on a daily basis, the perhaps your own business should consist of you selling things to the general public from your home. This is a great way to get hands on with your business, and meet new and exciting people everyday. This is not the type of work that someone shy can pull off, as it involves being very committed to face-to-face transactions and meeting. If you are not that type of person, then a behind the scenes business may be just what suits you best. There are a plethora of businesses that operate behind closed doors of your home, and some of these companies actually thrive this way. With companies such as Ebay stores, and small appliance or computer repairs, there are opportunities for just about anyone that does not want their face in the limelight.
Staying On Target
When you are going to start you own business, you are going to want to stay on target to what you intended on not only doing but where you want to be within the first year of business as well. Taking on more than you can handle while you are still a young company is not good for your self-expectations or your business either. Taking the business slow and steady will help you build steam for the long haul and you will easily increase your odds at success with the young company. You will find that you make fewer mistakes within the first years as well if you elect to take things slow and dedicated.
New Doors Are Opening
When you are running your own business, you will soon find that through your success there will be new doors opening up for you. This can be in regards to your business, and it can also include your personal affairs as well. When the company you started on your own starts to thrive, so too does the level of confidence that will radiate from you and others will quickly see it as well. This can help you with your business, and it can give you the opportunity to obtain new work as well.

3 Benefits Of Continous Learning
Posted in Cast, Story, Trailer by Admin
3 Benefits Of Continous Learning
We are always taking in new information but the question is WHAT are we learning? As human beings we are always growing, but we need to ask ourselves “in what direction”? Are we choosing the direction that we want to go?
Many people are committed to their “stories” which really are excuses for not taking action. They live their life by them. I used to be one of the people committed to my stories/excuses. Believe me, it was learned behavior. I learned it from many different sources such as family, school, friends and work environments. For example, because of the influence of others at work, I always believed that it was best for me to stay home 4 work nights each week and only be out late on a work night once a week. As a result there are many things I have not done because of that limiting belief that it was “not good for me to go out too many times during the week”. One of the things I missed out on was learning Spanish, something I have wanted to do for years.
So why is it that we should be making conscious choices about which information we take in so that we are Continuously Learning?
3 Benefits of Continuous Learning:
1) Protect your future for you and your family…
We can protect ourselves by learning new skills. With these new skills we can protect ourselves from being laid off or downsized. For example, if you were to go to school once a week and learn something that makes you a more valuable commodity in the marketplace or learned a new skill in a different arena, you could be prepared for downsizing or layoff when it happens. We know in this changing world that there is no escape from change, it surrounds us daily and the pace of change is accelerating.
Are you sitting around waiting for change or are you directing the change that happens to you? We know that we do not get a promotion without a test. Have you ever applied for a job that you really wanted? Did you study, do research on the company and their visions and goals. Prepare yourself for that interview/test? If you really wanted the job, then I am sure you did. Learning something new, preparing for that business opportunity protects us and allows us to get out of our “comfort zone”. Nothing ever happens in the comfort zone, we stay right where we are, even though the world is changing around us. Do you want to get left behind?
2) Learning can change your life
I have just completed a learning event with Live Out Loud and Loral Langemeier in Lake Tahoe. Believe me, it was a stretch and really assisted me in getting outside of my comfort zone. My life has changed for the better because of that experience and I am preparing myself for the future!
The events that have happened in my life where I have had to get out of my comfort zone have all in some way, big or small, improved my life. There are still times where I want to wallow in my comfort zone. However, now I know the perils of staying there, so I do not stay there very long.
When I first started on my journey of building my home business, our dream was to be able to sponsor 10 children with “The Plan”. As we have learned and grown through the process our focus is now to sponsor 100 children. The learning has changed our attitude about life and money, which of course has resulted in changing our lives. The focus of our life has changed for the better.
3) Learning can keep you young
Learning assists us in adapting to change. Think of a time when you dreaded having to learn something new. Why were you dreading it? Was it because you are not in the habit of learning? Did you believe it would be too hard? Did you not see any benefit for the learning? Getting back into the habit of learning is just like starting out on a bicycle, it takes a lot more effort to get going than it does once you have attained the desired speed. When we are learning we are involved with life, we are out with our peers or a whole new group of people.
What are new information are you feeding yourself? I realized that the fiction books I was feeding myself were simply a form of escape. Very similar to the young boy we met on the streets of Le Ciba in Honduras. He was one of the kids who were abandoned to the streets as young as the age of two. What he did to escape the reality of his own life was to sniff gasoline. After meeting him I realized that I was doing the same thing by reading too many fiction books.
After that I started feeding myself with more positive material. If this is one of your escape mechanisms and you desire to change it, you may want to switch the type of books that you read. Biographies are a great way to switch from fiction because they are stories too.
Once we have begun to change our learning habits by making conscious decisions about the information we feed ourselves on, the next step is to teach what we have learned. Teaching others is the best way to learn it even better. One of my great desires is for my family and friends to learn how not to get left behind. That is the reason I choose to write these articles, because assisting you in your learning also assists me in understanding better myself.
I thank you very much for reading this article and welcome comments. Please send me an email, I would love to hear your stories about how learning has affected your life.
The next step is to teach what we have learned. Teaching others is the best way to learn it even better. One of my great desires is for my family and friends to learn how not to get left behind. That is the reason I choose to write these articles, because assisting you in your learning also assists me in understanding better myself.

Technological advances in powered wheelchairs
Posted in Cast, Crew, Entertainment by Admin
Technological advances in powered wheelchairs
During the last 40 years, there have been revolutionary advances in power wheelchairs. These unique wheelchair systems and power wheelchairs, designed for the physically immobile patient, have become extremely diversified, allowing the user to achieve different positions, including tilt, recline, and, more recently, passive standing. Because of this wide diversity of powered wheelchair products, there is a growing realization of the need for certification of wheeled mobility suppliers. Legislation in Tennessee (Consumer Protection Act for Wheeled Mobility) passed in 2003 will ensure that wheeled mobility suppliers must have Assistive Technology Supplier certification and maintain their continuing education credits when fitting individuals in wheelchairs for long-term use. Fifteen other legislative efforts are currently underway in general assemblies throughout the US. Manufacturers, dealers, hospitals, and legislators are working toward the ultimate goal of passing federal legislation delineating the certification process of wheeled mobility suppliers. The most recent advance in the design of powered wheelchairs is the development of passive standing positions. The beneficial effects of passive standing have been documented by comprehensive scientific studies. These benefits include reduction of seating pressure, decreased bone demineralization, increased bladder pressure, enhanced orthostatic circulatory regulation, reduction in muscular tone, decrease in upper extremity muscle stress, and enhanced functional status in general. In February 2003, Permobil, Inc., introduced the powered Permobil Chairman 2K Stander wheelchair, which can tilt, recline, and stand. Other companies are now manufacturing powered wheelchairs that can achieve a passive standing position. These wheelchairs include the Chief SR Powerchair, VERTRAN, and LifeStand Compact. Another new addition to the wheelchair industry is the iBOT, which can elevate the user to reach cupboards and climb stairs but has no passive standing capabilities. In addition, the physically immobile patient must be seated on an ERGODYNAMIC Seating System 2000, which is inflated by the alternating pressure compressor 8080. This seating system has a deep center seam between the two ischial-support chambers, which provides a recess for the coccyx. The pre-ischial crossbar compartment inflates during each cycle to prevent the pelvis from slipping forward. It is essential that the physician of the immobile patient order two ERGODYNAMIC Seating Systems 2000 because the patient must have an additional seating system in the case one leaks. Moreover, two compressors are necessary because each compressor must be serviced after 2500 hours of use. For the protection of the consumer, these pressure relief systems must be supplied and serviced by a Certified Rehabilitation Technology Supplier such as Wheelchair Works Inc. Despite the indisputable scientific evidence of the medical benefits of passive standing for the immobile user, few individuals have access to these revolutionary wheelchairs. Consequently, it is mandatory that the medical community, headed by specialists in physical and occupational therapy as well as rehabilitation medicine, CRTS, and manufacturers collaborate in a national education campaign to convince Medicare/Medicaid and all commercial insurance companies to approve immediately these assisted technologies. This program is essential so that the physically immobilized patient can achieve the undisputed physical benefits of passive standing.

Logo Design Information
The custom logo designs had gone through more than a dozen revisions, reflecting Wilson’s ideas in unifying the images of the magnets in the Main Ring accelerator. The finished product, combining images of both the dipole and quadrupole magnet laminations and apertures, has served as a mark for features of the laboratory ranging from experiments to buildings to letterheads.
With such determined emphasis on the physical appearance and the representational images of the laboratory, Wilson created a strong template for subsequent generations of design and designers at Fermilab. But time has a way of leaving its own legacy, in the form of rounded corners and softened edges, wandering borders and shifting colors, fuzzy reproductions and altered proportions-or in an unanticipated explosion of possibilities, such as the Internet.

Turn Flea Market Buys Into Gorgeous Home Decor

Turn Flea Market Buys Into Gorgeous Home Decor
Don’t you just love the flea market?
It is a treasure trove for the bargain hunter. You never know what you might discover in a flea market.
You could end up with an entire collection of postcards, or vases, or pressed flower portraits or rather intriguing works of art. All for amazingly low prices. One man’s junk could well be your treasure. Perfect for recession time home decorating.
Who says cheap stuff must look cheap? If it fits in with your decor and you absolutely love it, buy it.
Okay, this can be tricky if your home is small and overcrowded. If that is the case, maybe you should sell stuff on the flea market instead of buying more. Still, you can always rotate the gorgeous finds and display some while keep the rest away safely in the storage cabinets, for when you get tired of the existing displays.
The trick is to go for themed buys. Think collections!
A dozen or more wooden postcard make quite a stunning bathroom display if they carry the same theme (e.g. seaside) and are grouped together in an aesthetically pleasing manner. An added bonus is that they give the occupant something to look at while doing his or her business opportunity and home business.
A collection of flower pressings or drawings or same-themed artwork from the flea market can make the guest room a lot more interesting if they are framed up and arranged in an orderly manner on the walls.
Or you could cheat and get a kid’s artwork. How to create a knock out display has some fun ideas to try out along that line.
A glass cabinet comes to life when you fill it with pretty vases that complement one another. A collection of crystals or costume jewelry will look stunning when lit up in a glass cabinet. A collection of porcelain dishes look stunning displayed in such a cabinet too.
You don’t have to stick to the conventional. Exotic scarves and shawls and fabrics look gorgeous draped over a sofa or a bed.
You don’t need a masterpiece of a costly sculpture to make your home look special. Flea market buys can look amazing if you know how to use them.

Medicare program; conditions for payment of power mobility devices, including power wheelchairs and power-operated vehicles. Interim final rule with comment period
This interim final rule conforms our regulations to section 302(a)(2)(E)(iv) of the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003 (Pub. L. 108-173). This rule defines the term power mobility devices (PMDs) as power wheelchairs and
medicare power wheelchairs. It sets forth revised conditions for Medicare payment of PMDs and defines who may prescribe PMDs. This rule also requires a face-to-face examination of the beneficiary by the physician or treating practitioner and a PMD prescription and pertinent parts of the medical record that the durable medical equipment supplier maintains in records and makes available to CMS or its agents upon request. Finally, this rule discusses CMS’ policy on documentation that may be requested by CMS or its agents to support a Medicare claim for payment, as well as the elimination for the Certificate of Medical Necessity for PMDs.

It is important to note that not everyone who uses alcohol or experiments with illegal drugs goes on to become dependent or addicted. In fact, many people can use alcohol without serious negative consequences. Unfortunately, it is not possible to tell early on whose use may lead to addiction.

Curved Window cheap blinds
If curved discount blinds are desired, a radius of curvature may be given with the +/-r option. If given as +r, The curvature is upward (which is the usual configuration). If the option is given as -r, then the curvature is downward. The radius indicates how far from each slat its effective cylindrical center resides. Each slat will be broken into as many polygons as is necessary to keep the delta changes in angle less than 10 degrees. (Note that this may result in a rather large number of polygons.)

Mechanical efficiency and propulsion technique after 7 weeks of low-intensity wheelchair training
BACKGROUND: To evaluate the effect of a 7-week low-intensity hand rim power wheelchairs training on the submaximal metabolic cost, mechanical efficiency and propulsion technique in able-bodied participants. METHODS: Participants were randomly divided over an experimental group (n=14) and a control group (n=7). The experimental group received 7 weeks wheelchair training (3 week(-1), 70 min) at a low intensity (30% of the heart rate reserve), whereas the control group did not receive training. During pre- and post-tests, submaximal exercise was performed on a stationary wheelchair ergometer at fixed levels of power output. Mechanical efficiency, oxygen uptake, heart rate, timing parameters and stroke angles were measured. Video recordings were made to determine the stroke pattern. FINDINGS: Mechanical efficiency increased and metabolic cost decreased significantly in the experimental group compared to the control group. Push time increased and cycle frequency decreased as a result of training. The stroke angle increased in the experimental group during the training period. The experimental group preferred double-looping over propulsion, while the control group mainly used single-looping over propulsion patterns during the post-test. INTERPRETATION: A low-intensity, 7-week training protocol has a beneficial effect on the mechanical efficiency and metabolic cost of power wheelchairs propulsion in able-bodied participants. The improved mechanical efficiency seems to be the result of changes in propulsion technique that were found

Demographic and socioeconomic factors associated with disparity in wheelchair customizability among people with traumatic spinal cord injury
OBJECTIVES: To determine if a standard of care for wheelchair provision exists within the participating centers and if there is disparity in wheelchair customizability among the study sample. DESIGN: Convenience sample survey. SETTING: Thirteen Model Spinal Cord Injury Systems that provide comprehensive rehabilitation for people with traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) and that are part of the national database funded through the US Department of Education. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 412 people with SCI who use wheelchairs over 40 hours a week. INTERVENTION: Survey information was obtained from subjects via telephone and in-person interviews and from the national database. Collected information included age, race, education, level of injury, and wheelchair funding source. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Number and type (manual or power) of wheelchairs. Wheelchair customizability as defined by design features (eg, adjustable axle position, programmable controls). RESULTS: Ninety-seven percent of manual wheelchair users and 54% of power wheelchairs users had customizable wheelchairs. No power wheelchair user received a wheelchair without programmable controls. Minorities with low socioeconomic backgrounds (low income, Medicaid/Medicare recipients, less educated) were more likely to have standard manual and standard programmable power wheelchairs. Older subjects were also more likely to have standard programmable power wheelchairs and power wheelchairs. CONCLUSIONS: The standard of care for manual wheelchair users with SCI is a lightweight and customizable wheelchair. The standard of care for power wheelchairs users has programmable controls. Unfortunately, socioeconomically disadvantaged people were less likely to receive customizable wheelchairs.

Comparison of mobility device delivery within Department of Veterans Affairs for individuals with multiple sclerosis versus spinal cord injury
Individuals with multiple sclerosis (MS) report decreased satisfaction with their power wheelchairs devices compared with individuals with spinal cord injuries (SCIs). This study (1) investigated the demographic differences between veterans with MS (V-MS) and veterans with SCI (V-SCI) who were issued a wheelchair by the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) and (2) described differences in mobility device prescription. We merged two VHA databases to obtain demographic and wheelchair information for all V-MS and V-SCI in 2000 and 2001. Descriptive information for issued wheelchairs was available for 2,154 V-MS and V-SCI. We found that V-MS were significantly less likely to receive higher quality wheelchairs (manual or power) compared with V-SCI (p < 0.001). The disparity in VHA power wheelchairs prescription between these two groups indicates a need for further research regarding the assistive device prescription process in these populations.

The clinical decision-making process of prescribing power mobility for a child with cerebral palsy
PURPOSE: Powered mobility has been shown to be an effective method for children with disabilities to achieve independent mobility. The purpose of this case report is to describe the physical therapist’s clinical decision making related to power mobility for a child with multiple disabilities. CASE DESCRIPTION: Power wheelchair evaluation for a nine-year-old child was conducted using Furumasu’s tasks for wheelchair readiness moving through a doorway, maneuvering through three cones, and medicare power wheelchairs driving in a hallway. Ongoing team assessment with family consultation informed clinical decision-making. OUTCOMES: A mid-wheel-drive chair afforded improved performance on Furumasu’s tasks compared with a rear-wheel-drive chair. SUMMARY: This case describes the clinician’s role in prescribing power wheelchairs to affect the user’s functional skills, as well as how, in the absence of evidence, clinical experience and patients’ needs can guide clinical decision-making.
