Educational Autism And Aspergers CD Brings A Fresh, Positive Approach for Parents, Educators

Royal Oak, MI Many people have heard of autism, but few are familiar with its distant cousin: AspergersDisorder. Actually, most people know very little about both conditions.

Thats precisely why Mindscape Productions, L.L.C. developed an audio CD to educate people about autism

and Aspergers in an interesting, engaging and inspirational way. The CD entitled Living in the Spectrum:Autism & Aspergers takes a unique, optimistic approach to covering both conditions, featuring captivatingmusic, poetry and interviews. Its filled with valuable nuggets of insight from researchers, parents and actualindividuals who are affected by the disorders.

The CD offers an informative, user-friendly way to learn about autism and Aspergers, says Lecia Macryn, whoco-created the CD with Jeff LaDuke. You dont have to sit and crack open a book. You can put it in at yourconvenience, while youre doing other things like driving or on the computer.

Autism is a spectrum disorder whosesymptoms and characteristics can present themselves in a wide variety ofcombinations, from mild to severe. The symptomscaused by physical disorders of the brain include:disturbances in the rate of appearance of physical, social and language skills; abnormal responses to


7/12

sensations; impairment of speech and language; and abnormal ways of relating to people, objects and events.Mildly affected individuals may show only slight delays in language and greater challenges with socialinteractions. The severe form of the syndrome may include extreme self-injurious, repetitive, highly unusual andaggressive behavior.

Autism typically appears during the first three years of life. It occurs in approximately 15 out of every 10,000births and is four times more common in boys than girls. It has been found throughout the world in families of allracial, ethnic and social backgrounds. Children dont outgrow autism, but symptoms may lessen as they

develop and receive treatment.Aspergers is a neurobiological disorder named for a Viennese physician, Hans Asperger, who published apaper in 1944 describing the autistic-like condition. Individuals with Aspergers typically dont have the severityof communication problems as those with autism; however, they show marked deficiencies in social skills, havedifficulties with transitions or changes and prefer sameness.

They typically have obsessive routines and may be preoccupied with a particular subject of interest. Often overlysensitive to sounds, tastes, smells, and sights, people with Aspergers may prefer soft clothing, certain foods,and be bothered by sounds or lights no one else seems to hear or see.

Living in the Spectrum is an ideal primer for parents, relatives, teachers, employers and anyone wanting tolearn about autism and Asperger's. Not the typical dry lecture, the 55-minute CD delivers a fun, easyintroduction to the subject matter. It offers hope and encouragement, Macryn says. It puts a whole new light

and perspective on autism and Asperger's.

So far, parents and professionals have responded positively to the CD, which was officially released July 16.

This CD is a breath of fresh air because it adds a new dimension to the total picture where doom and gloom isoften the first emotion parents feel when their child has received a diagnosis of Autism, says, Laurence ABecker, PhD, Creative Learning Environments.

Parent Suzanne Rossi says: This positive approach left me with renewed hope that someday autism might beviewed less often as a disability and more often as human diversity. Great Job! Thanks!

Karen Simmons, CEO and founder of Autism Today and the author of Little Rainman, is equally impressed.What a fabulous resource you have put together! I sure wish I had this available 10 years ago.

Living In The Spectrum: Autism & Aspergers CD is available for $16.95 online atwww.mindscapeproductions.com or by phone via at 1-800-937-3397.

National Hispanic Leader Alleges Discrimination, Persecution by Government Agency

Oakland, CA (July 20, 2005) A national Hispanic community leader is appealing to the public and U.S. LaborDepartment to stop another government agency from discriminating and retaliating against him. Dr. AlbertoRocha says that the Pacific Region Office of the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) isattacking his reputation and career. He also says OFCCP Pacific Region managers have breached personnelregulations of the Labor Department and created an intimidating and hostile work environment at the Oakland


9/12

District Office. This environment has caused fear, lowered employee morale and adversely affected the missionof the office.

The situation is a sheer travesty in which a national Hispanic leader and good public servants of the OaklandDistrict Office are being terrorized and harassed by the Pacific Region management, according to Rocha,assistant district director of the Oakland office. Rocha is also the former National Chairman and Chief ExecutiveOfficer of National Image, which is proactive with employment, education, civil rights and other issues thatimpact the Hispanic community.

They are currently attempting to fire me for my involvement in protected activities like taking a leadership role ina national non-profit community based organization, Rocha explains. With the community and severalcongressional offices concerned about the illegal treatment of us, the Department of Labor management inWashington D.C. should intervene and correct the problemor be made to correct the problem through thecourt of public opinion.

Interestingly, the OFCCP is part of the U.S. Department of Labor's Employment Standards Administration. TheOFCCP is charged with ensuring that employers doing business with the federal government comply with theequal employment opportunity (EEO) and affirmative action provisions of their contracts.

As the office responsible for contractor compliance with federal nondiscrimination laws and regulations, theOFCCP has a responsibility to be a workplace model for the private-sector contractors it oversees, Rocha said.

With the appropriate attention, OFCCP can be made to function effectively.

Rochas allegations of employee discrimination and harassment stem from incidents that began in 2002. Aftersuccessfully competing for the position of Assistant District Directorof the Oakland District Office, Rocha wasasked to relinquish his position as chairman of National Image by director, Woody Gilliland, director of thePacific Regional Department of Labor OFCCP Office, due to conflict of interest. Rocha refused, maintaining therequest violated his protected personnel practice.

According to Rocha, Gilliland proceeded to harass himeven over trivial matters such as whether he couldinclude Ph.D. on his business signature and cards. As a result, Rocha hired an attorney and filed EEOcomplaints to protect his liberties as a federal employee. Currently, executive management is using aPerformance Improvement Planfraught with impossible deadlines and misleading informationto discredithim and cause his termination, Rocha says.

Members of the U.S. Congress and community have contacted the Labor Department in strong support ofRocha. Representatives Dennis Cardoza (D-CA 18); Barbara Lee (D-CA 09); and Pete Stark (D-CA 13) wroteletters on Rochas behalf. Stark, for example, expressed the following in a June 10th letter to the DeputySecretary of Labor, Steven Law: Upon reviewing the myriad of documentation Dr. Rocha brought to my office, Iam concerned that employees such as Dr. Rocha are working in an environment within the Oakland DistrictOffice of OFCCP that needs to be investigated thoroughly. Based on the description I received, there appears acommon thread of fear and retaliation permeating the office.

New Software Provides Powerful, Affordable Forms Management Solution

Cumberland, RI -- May 23, 2005 Businesses now have access to a more enhanced, effective and affordable

way to manage their forms, thanks to the latest version of Formium. This new version provides the solution for

companies that need to store, route, approval and digitally sign their forms.

Formium, which can be used to manage all leading form types including PDF and HTML, is designed to

significantly reduce form distribution and processing costs for users.

Overall, this will enable small and mid-size companies to process their forms-based data and communications

more efficiently, decrease costs and better engage their customers, said Gordon Kent, president of Indigo Eight

Software.

According to Kent, the marketplace has an unquenched need for affordable solutions like Formium. Competing

products, he said, cost four to 10 times the base price of Formium. Were more affordable than any competitor

by thousands of dollars, Kent added.

Indigo Eight Software introduced Formium several years ago as the ideal tool for small and mid-sized

businesses. The latest version of the product represents the development of a full-featured forms solution.

Weve tracked competitive developments, integrated new features, and paid careful attention to usability based

on our target audience, Kent said.

Formium is designed to provide business users with rich, complete forms management capabilities. It is a

comprehensive resource that requires no additional services. Unlike vendors that combine their product with

services (which cost extra), we provide a complete out-of-the-box solution, Kent explained.

The enhanced capability of Formium offers many features that arent available in other similar products. This

translates into an array of valuable user benefits. For example, users can:

Shorten the time employees, customers and clients spend filling out forms: Formium pre-populates forms with

regularly re-entered data.

Mix-and-match form types (HTML, PDF, InfoPath, etc.) that best suit the needs of the form's data or form filler: The

software uses HTML forms to capture basic information and delivers a high-fidelity PDF form that is filled with that

data but also designed for printing and hard-copy archiving.

Automate recurring form-based applications with automatic scheduling: Formium alerts employees to fill out their

monthly expense report automatically and then pre-fills the report with their name and other information.

Effectively route forms through the organization to replace email or inter-office mail: The product sets due dates on

each step of the users workflow and alerts key stakeholders when various stages in the process are accomplished,

or overdue.


11/12

Formium is available through various resellers and online at http://www.indigoeightsoftware.com, starting at

$999 (U.S.). For more information about the product or company, please visit http:// www.indigoeightsoftware or
