More on SBS: INSIGHT : Understanding Autism Some more info about the upcoming program on SBS, which is to broadcast on TUESDAY 8st August  at 7.30pm INSIGHT – Understanding Autism A staggering 100,000 Australian children are directly affected by autism and an even greater number of adults. The incidence has dramatically increased in the last decade and affects boys in three out of four cases.  The traits include a lack of social skills, communication difficulties, and obsessive behaviour. Often a diagnosis of autism is not given until the child is around two.  Up until then families believe their child is normal – they reach all milestones like crawling, walking and first words. But then the child changes, leaving families shattered. Many questions surround what has been dubbed the ‘silent epidemic’. Why is it on the increase? What causes autism? And is there a cure?  Research is still in preliminary stages, and although a series of therapies have been tried – all of them are costly and controversial.   Some families have been forced to shell out their life savings, sell their family home and dig into their superannuation, to fund these treatments. And what happens to these children when they become adults? What sort of life can they expect to lead? INSIGHT brings together desperate families searching for answers, autistic adults who can reflect on their struggle as well as leading experts and researchers. “Understanding Autism” will be broadcast on TUESDAY 8st August  at 7.30pm on SBS. 8:33:58 PM    comment []  trackback []  G!   • Family • TV

[AFL-Preview] Preview of St Kilda V Richmond – MCG Saturday I am a big fan AFL Preview mailing list . It continues to be an entertaining read, as it's written by fans for fans. I had to share this weeks preview, since the author is a tiger fan. I love his last sentence. St Kilda V Richmond  – MCG Saturday Yes you can say the Tigers were woeful against the Swans last week but then so were the Saints against the Power in Tassie. Richmond have done it all year, that is, follow up a poor performance with an unexpected win due to a change in form. I believe they can do it this week in a game where you expect them to hold sway in the ruck with Symonds on a roll but it will be how the teams play the game above their shoulders in this match. Richmond would need to win nearly every game to make the finals while the Saints have notched 4 wins in a row to put themselves 5th on the ladder and with a bit of momentum. I’ll kick myself if Richmond gets up but the sensible selection will be St Kilda. St Kilda by 21 8:30:05 PM    comment []  trackback []  G!   • My Hobbies
