Stuttering And Speech Therapy Ideas

Stuttering (or stammering) is a voice disfluency, a speech disorder. When a person stutters, the normal flow of speech is disrupted by repetitions and/or prolongations of voice sounds. Frequently, an individual is also unable to start a word.

Child stuttering, toddler stuttering and adult stuttering are themes being studied by many scientists and speech specialists all around the world. The Stuttering Foundation of America, the National Stuttering Association, the National Center for Stuttering and individual speech therapists in general are all investigating why people stutter and finding effective and fast speech therapies.

Nevertheless, even though scientists have several theories and suspect a variety of causes for stuttering, the precise mechanisms causing this disability (also called stammering) are not understood. Some believe that many forms have genetic origins.

A common form of stuttering is neurogenic. Neurogenic stuttering arise from signal problems between the brain and nerves or muscles. In neurogenic stuttering, the brain is unable to adequately coordinate the different components of speech mechanism.

The disruptions of speech may be accompanied by tremors of the lips and/or jaw, rapid eye blinks and other movements. This disorder commonly becomes more severe when speaking in front of a group of people or on the phone. On the other hand, speaking alone and singing might generally improve it or disappear completely.

Over three million Americans stutter. Stuttering affects all ages, but most frequently, children between the ages of 2 and 6 are the most affected. Preschool and toddler stuttering are especially affected while they are developing their language. When they grow up, most of them improve or cure. One percent or less of adults stutters.

Many famous people stutter. Marilyn Monroe, Bruce Willis, Winston Churchill and Mel Tillis are only a few whose success was not impeded by stuttering. Their speech language issue did not stop them to excel and express themselves magnificently.

With these encoraging news about famous people succeeding in spite of their common issue, I end part 1 of these series of articles. Much more information can be found at a site dedicated to stuttering problems and resources, as well as a library of speech language pathology.

This is the end of Part 1 of Stuttering and speech therapy ideas. On next chapters I will be writing about different and effective therapies developed lately by researchers on the field of stammering or speech language pathology.

Wisconsin Leads The Way In Submetering

byadmin

What Is Submetering? The dictionary defines “utility submetering” as a system which allows landlords and real estate management associations (multi-tenant properties) to bill their tenants for individual measured utility usage. Submeters are physically placed inside each tenant’s unit for metering and monitoring electricity, gas, water, steam, or other types of utilities. Installed submeters confirm the data collected at utility companies stations. The usage and data information collected by submeters is generally sent every 15 minutes to an energy management software system for analysis. Traditional utility bill data, provided billing information after an entire month, but submetering closes this informational gap by providing real-time energy usage. The whole purpose of utility submetering is to identify savings opportunities for tenants.

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=blaK_tB_KQA[/youtube]

The Purpose of SubmeteringSubmetering is the latest innovative technology that is growing popularity, both with utility providers and consumers. This metering method uses IP-connected sensors and utility meters to gather the energy management data. The savings for consumers are based more on behavioral changes, such as turning off or unplugging equipment and devices, while not in use. The utility submetering environment began in the commercial and industrial industries, such as companies with multiple warehouses, buildings, and stores. Now, its domestic use is helping consumers save more money, using strategies which go beyond traditional upgrades of lighting and other utility systems.

BenefitsThere are many benefits for submetering in various buildings, including:* The process eliminates utility costs from rental agreements.* The identification of devices and equipment running after an 8 hour day, (nighttime, off shift, weekends) can be identified for savings.* Building owners can recover most, if not all, of their monthly utility bill, which increases their cash flow.* Information is quickly available for operators and facility managers on the same day so that they can make changes for savings.* Water submetering helps homeowners to report leaks before they become major expenses.* The detection of any utility bill errors, provide better management of electricity usage.* Residents can be more responsible for their own energy and water consumption.* Helps to promote conservation efforts.

The Best in Submetering TechnologyPresently, the Wisconsin Public Service Commission does not have rules or regulations which would prohibit submetering. For now, it is a developer’s choice and real estate management’s choice to submeter. The go-to company to provide all the information needed on submetering is the ABT Water Management Company.

ABT is a licensed, national installer of some of the country’s most reliable and leading water meters. They do not sub-contract any meter installations; they have experienced crews that can work in a 15-house park or a 700-site manufactured housing community. Multi-tenant managers, no longer need to fit a utility bill for each tenant. Now, tenants can receive their actual utility use, which provides a fairer and more equitable billing system.

Waterfront Real Estate: The Ins And Outs}

Waterfront Real Estate: The Ins and Outs

by

Kevin KlingAs with any type of real estate, waterfront real estate comes with a few special considerations.

If you are purchasing real estate on the water, be it a river, lake or oceanfront, you’ll want to know for certain what your rights and responsibilities are to that water and its shoreline. For example, are you obligated to build a certain type of dock? Many areas have regulations governing what type of dock can be built. Are you even allowed to moore your boat there? Sometimes your rights end at the waterline. Is your beach accessible to the public or can you limit who goes there? Can you build right beside the waterline, or do you have to have any structures a certain distance away? Be sure you investigate the maximum water levels, and research the flooding history of your area. All of this will be important in your future at your waterfront home, so be sure to get the facts before you buy, so you know exactly what you’ll be working with.

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DvX9F0wMYI8[/youtube]

Living beside a body of water, realize that it is a delicate ecosystem and be sure to consider the environmental impact of what you do. It might be best to avoid things like weed killers on your lawn if it’s just running down a slope into the water. There may even be laws governing what is safe to use and what is not. For this similar reason, homes with septic systems will have special regulations beside the water. Because the water level is higher underground, follow the rules carefully to avoid sewage leaching either into the lake, into your drinking water or into your basement during especially wet times of year.

You will also definitely want to consider safety when living beside the water. Ask around about any local dangers such as hidden currents or underwater rocks close to the surface. Also rusty old boats or garbage that has sunk that could hurt unaware swimmers.

Once you’ve figured out everything you should know about your own unique piece of waterfront, it’s time to sit back and enjoy some of the benefits. Not only will you enjoy living in such a beautiful area and taking advantage of the local recreation, you’ll have peace of mind knowing you’ve invested in some of the most valuable real estate around.

Innocent Until Proven Guilty

Submitted by: J. Briere

If you have ever watched the show “Cops”, or any other police reality show for that matter, then you ve seen the line: All suspects are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. While this may be true, the time before a suspect actually reaches a court room could be days, weeks, months, and in the some extreme cases up to a year or more. In some cases this could make for tragic consequences for those who are innocent. There are ways to circumvent sitting in a cell waiting for a trial date to come. One particular way to do this is by posting bail or enlisting the help of a bail bondsman. These are more favorable options than busting out of prison, a la “Shawkshank Redemption”, or waiting for the real criminal to be caught, if the suspect actually is innocent.

If making bail is not an option because the total amount is too high then enlisting the help of a bail bondsman can mean the difference between sitting in county lock up and sitting in your living room watching your favorite Friday night reality show. This is known as a surety bond. When a bail bondsman agrees to post bail the defendant is required to produce 10% of the total amount of bail through the use of a cosigner. By accepting aid from a bail bondsman one is essentially entering into an agreement with the bail bondsman, the courts, and the cosigner that he or she is promising to appear in court on the appointed day.

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QwMoeRKF5_s[/youtube]

While some people may use this second chance at freedom as an opportunity to skip town and leave their worries behind others can use this as a chance to prove that they are innocent. If someone does skip town while on bail the consequences are only negative. Not only is the person that cosigned out the money they have invested in getting the defendant out but the case of the defendant is only worsened by additional charges. This only furthers the fact that the defendant is guilty of whatever crime he or she is being charged for. On the other hand if a person posts bail, whether it is through a bail bondsman or not, and appears for the appointed court date it could have a positive effect on how the court views the defendant, since obviously an innocent person would not run. A well trained bail bonds also has intimate knowledge of the inner workings of the court system and can facilitate aid and assistance to those awaiting trial.

Of course going through a bail bondsman is not always a necessary option. The courts may in fact allow for defendants to post bail in other ways. If a person is a low flight risk they may issue a citation release, or cite out, in which the arresting officer issues a citation informing the defendant that they are to show up on an appointed date. Other forms of bail include recognizance, property bond, or an immigration bond if the defendant is an illegal immigrant.

The Only Reason You Don’t Want Android 3.0 On Your Tablet

By Bob T. Wilson

The mobile world has awaited the arrival of ‘Honeycomb,’ the 3.0 release of Google’s runaway hit mobile device OS, Android. Android is already the dominant force in the mobile market with dozens of smartphones released by almost every manufacturer running on the open source platform. The Honeycomb release is a major move for Google, and according to Google executives, it was a major development effort as well.

The most important aspect of Honeycomb 3.0 is that this is the first Android OS version built and optimized especially for tablet PCs. Additionally, the graphics, menu systems, and display handling have been optimized for larger tablet screens. Could this perhaps be a hint as to the direction that tablet development is heading? However, this does not mean that smaller screen tablets won’t benefit as well.

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CiXPF4Oz-J4[/youtube]

The Empty App Store

The problem with the initial release of Honeycomb was the lack of compatible apps for the OS. When Motorola announced the Xoom at the 2011 CES, no apps were yet available, and only 16 had been developed for the OS by the time it released the last week of Feb. 2011. Part of the reason was that the Android 3.0 Software Development Kit (SDK) had not been made available to developers yet. Nevertheless, several weeks later Google announced its availability and as of March, the Android Marketplace was sporting 60+ Honeycomb Apps-finally.

This number will increase drastically as the Android tablet market expands, which is a given as developers are hungry for a solid competitor to the iPad and its restrictive market. Most major manufacturers are either planning development or already developing Honeycomb specific tablets, and as they come to market, the number of Apps will expand as well.

The First Real Android Tablet

The first real tablet to come with Android Honeycomb 3.0 is the Motorola Xoom, which is a large screen, high-powered tablet released at the 2011 CES International with hopes of directly competing with the Apple iPad, and might as well have been built specifically for Honeycomb. There are others, such as the Samsung Galaxy S Tab 10.1 and the LG G-Slate, which are larger screen models as well as designed with Android Honeycomb 3.0 in mind. Part of the reason for the lackluster performance of first generation Android tablets against the iPad was the lack of an OS that was designed specifically for tablets. Android 2.2 is a well-developed smartphone OS, but lacks support for critical aspects of tablet operation that finally Honeycomb provided.

A Fast Start

Many of the initial Apps should be ports of existing and popular Android 2.2 apps, but we should expect to see native tablet apps in increasing number as well. The entire Android ecosystem is open source, and the Android 3.0 SDK is free to download. Developing an App takes only time and there are no restrictive policies for posting them on the Android marketplace. The combination of these factors and the huge success of Android with smartphone manufacturers will insure that by mid-2011 there will be many Honeycomb tablets and thousands of Apps. The cost of the tablets will begin to come down and Apple may find it harder going in the tablet marketplace, one that is expected to become the number one venue for mobile Internet access.

Add: How Does Dopamine Affect Adhd?

By Tellman H. Knudson

An article in Scientific Daily, dated August 8, 2007, suggests that a lack of dopamine in the brain may be related to attention deficit. Dopamine is a chemical in the brain that controls attention, motor activity, learning, motivation and reward, mood, sleep, and milk production. This study found that low levels of dopamine may actually be one cause for ADHD. Though the study no doubt extends to ADD sufferers, as well, the test was done with ADHD subjects alone.

Nineteen ADHD adults and 24 normal adults, around the age of 32, were studied by the National Institute of Drug Abuse. Each of them was given a positron emission tomography (PET) scan before an after the administration of a drug known to bond with dopamine in the brain and limbic system. The results of the testing were that the ADHD group had much lower levels of dopamine bonded to the drug than did the healthy adults.

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nXVMMobyetQ[/youtube]

So, what?

This just reinforces the idea that attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is chemically based. Because you have ADD or because you don’t know if you have ADD and are having a terrible time with life, you probably have chemical imbalances in the brain. You’re not a bad person. Some adults with ADD have learned to control the symptoms better than others. And natural methods of control really do work for some. I find espresso throughout the day really helps me, which is obviously due to the fact that it’s a stimulant as with attention deficit medications.

But there are many ways to cope. You may be able to work with routines and systems to keep yourself focused. You may be able to study communication techniques to improve relationships. But you may not. Some people with ADD and ADHD just need the medication. However, the frightening thing to come from the dopamine study is that these lower levels of dopamine are also associated with a tendency toward substance abuse. Before that happens, get a proper diagnosis. Come to InstantADDSuccess.com and take a preliminary test. If you find it to be positive, then seek out health professionals who can help you.

Basically identity theft aims to illegally access resources or obtain credit and other benefits in that person’s name. The victim of identity theft (meaning the person whose identity has been assumed by the identity thief) can suffer adverse consequences if he is held responsible for perpetrator’s act. On the other hand, organizations and individuals who are hoaxed by the identity thief can also suffer consequences and to some extent, are also considered victims.

In providing passwords to your online accounts, please do establish strong passwords. Remember that weak passwords usually comprises of basic information of birthday, default pin number and first name or last name too. 4. In setting up your online accounts, make it a habit to uncheck the ‘Remember Me’ button. Unchecking it means the lesser risk of getting your online identity stolen by unintentional users. 5. If you happen to receive any suspicious email messages implying that you won online raffle draws or any other unwanted medical products, delete all those messages indicating promos, raffles or any forms of unwanted marketing promotions. According to rush essay, always make sure that email sources originate from those legitimate ones and doesn’t require any scrupulous fees from you.

Nuwave Oven Reviews Not A Nuwave Oven Scam

Nuwave Oven Reviews Not a Nuwave Oven Scam

by

Ina Timmins

The Nuwave oven reviews that we found were overwhelmingly positive and there was no Nuwave oven scam mentioned. Almost all the reviewers who purchased and used their Nuwave oven loved it. There were extremely few complaints. These reviews are consolidated and do not differentiate between models of the Nuwave Oven.

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pfexEAExzhk[/youtube]

Negative NuWave Oven Reviews The biggest negative review on the Nuwave Oven was dealing with the main company. Read our Nuwave Oven Complaints article. But for negative reviews about the Nuwave Oven itself, they were hard to find. One reviewer was frustrated that the suggested cooking times for frozen food were not accurate. He had to sometimes cook food longer than suggested by the Nuwave Oven time tables. Most Nuwave Oven reviews mentioned that the suggested cook times were a good guideline, but sometimes had to be adjusted. Other Nuwave Oven reviews pointed out that the Nuwave Oven lid is airtight, therefore allowing food to be moist, but crisp foods were not always crispy. Finally, a comment was made that if beef was overcooked it became rubbery. While none of these are strong negatives against the Nuwave Oven itself, these were the only negative reviews we found. None of the reviews referred to any Nuwave Oven scam. Positive NuWave Oven Reviews The buyers who posted Nuwave Oven reviews were very pleased with how the oven prepared their food. They commented on how their food was moist and many of them also said their crisp foods were crispy. They had success cooking both frozen and thawed foods. The reviews mentioned food was less greasy and they liked the air fry chicken. Some Nuwave Oven reviews said the oven was great for cooking for 1 or 2 people. It is unclear if they were using the oven with the extender ring attached. It used less energy then a convection oven and that it was a great 2nd oven when their conventional oven was full, especially for Thanksgiving. It had fast cook times for food compared to other ovens. Cleanup of the Nuwave Oven was easy and could be done with warm soapy water or in the dishwasher. Tips from NuWave Oven Reviews Many Nuwave Oven reviews gave tips that we thought would be worth mentioning. These tips cover many aspects of cooking with the Nuwave Oven. To increase moisture, add an inch of water to the liner pan. The meat will pick up the added moisture in the oven and the drippings will go into the water and make cleaning up easier. To cook food faster, use disposable aluminum pans. These pans can be reused. To prevent food from sticking, spray or grease the racks. To prevent overbrowning of fowl, cook on 1 rack, cover with aluminum foil, removing it for the final 15-30 minutes of cook time. An alternative to the aluminum foil would be to cook at a reduced power 70-75% increasing to high power for the final 25% of cook time for browning. To prevent sogginess of crisp foods, remove from Nuwave Oven as soon as desired doneness is reached. Suggested cook time are just that, suggested. Factors will affect cook times like room, size and kind of cooking utensils used, oven temperature and size and type of food The Nuwave Oven reviews we found agreed that Nuwave Oven was a product that the reviewers were glad they bought and many used it on a daily basis with great results. As far as these customers were concerned, there was no mention of any Nuwave Oven scam.
