2007-08-04 Thread DAANOO
I have ordered leg bag straps from this company.  This sounds like a  cheap 
table if 73 % below retail.  I get weeklies e-mails from this company  and 
express medical where I order my chux.
 
Thought I would suggest if anyone needs.

How did your Senator vote against this children's Bill.  I always find  it 
interesting to see!

Dear Dana,

Last night, thanks to the tireless efforts of activists across
the country, the Senate sharply rebuked the President and voted
to renew the State Children's Health Insurance Program by a vote
of 68 to 31. 

Over two-thirds of the Senate shrugged off repeated Presidential
threats and demonstrated that the health of America's children
is not a Republican or Democratic issue, but an issue that
unites the majority of the American people. 

In large part, the decisive vote in the Senate was a direct
reaction to the outpouring of grassroots support for our kids'
health that has been felt in every Congressional office for
months. 

This is your victory. 

To see how your Senators voted please click here
[http://ga3.org/ct/_1SxI371DR--/]. 

Please take a moment to call your Senators at 1-800-828-0498 and
express your appreciation for their vote on behalf of children
or your displeasure with their unwillingness to support kids'
health care. 

The Senate vote follows Wednesday's equally important 225 to 204
vote in the House of Representatives to renew the program and
cover millions of children. 

To see how your Representative in the House voted please click
here [http://ga3.org/ct/LpSxI371DR-F/] 

Please call your Representative at 1-800-828-0498 and tell them,
depending on their vote, how thankful or disappointed you are
for their actions on behalf of children. 

There is much more work to be done before this legislation is
enacted into law, but today, thanks to your hard work, we
celebrate an important intermediate victory for children's
health care in this country. 

To all of you - a huge thank you. Your efforts made a tremendous
difference.

Jeff Gordon
Field Director

Dear Brothers and Sisters:

You may already know national ADAPT will be in Chicago, IL from September 9 
to September 13.  We are writing to let you know about a forum on Sunday 
September 9, where we need your help in our work to get more affordable, 
accessible, integrated housing to help free our people from nursing homes 
and other institutions.


Sunday September 9, from 10AM-12:30PM ADAPT will have a forum to publicize 
our national housing advocacy platform to get more affordable, accessible 
integrated housing for people with disabilities so we have adequate housing 
in the community to go to as our work on Money Follows the Person and the 
Community Choice Act moves forward.


During the afternoon from 2-4PM, officials from the US Department of Housing 
and Urban Development, state housing and Medicaid officials, and other 
organizations will join us for the forum.  We need you to tell your story 
about the problems you have had in getting out of or staying out of 
institutions, with a focus on how housing barriers have forced you to go 
into or stay in an institution against your will.  These officials need to 
understand the real, personal impact that the lack of affordable, 
accessible, integrated housing has had on us, and why their support for real 
housing choices makes the difference between of life and death for so many 
of us.


The forum will take place at the Crowne Plaza Hotel at 733 WEST MADISON 
CHICAGO, IL.  If you want to testify in the afternoon between 2-4pm to help 
move ADAPTs housing advocacy agenda, please fill out the attached form and 
send it to Cassie James at [EMAIL PROTECTED] or send it to 
Cassie at Liberty Resources, 714 Market Street, Suite 100 Philadelphia, PA 
19106


Due to the two hour time limit for the afternoon testimony session, only 30 
people at most will be able to testify.  We are asking that you fill out and 
return the attached form so that we can find out the stories that show most 
clearly how lack of housing options is forcing our people in institutions. 
If you are chosen to testify we will meet with you on the evening of 
Saturday, September 8 to prepare for the forum on the 9th.  We must receive 
the form on or before Friday, August 31 to give us time to review your 
stories and get back to you in time to prepare for the forum.  Even if you 
are not chosen for this forum, there may be other opportunities in the 
future so we urge you to fill out the form if you are interested in sharing 
your story!

or Darrell Price, Access Living, [EMAIL PROTECTED]  Toll Free: 800 613 
8549 Toll Free TTY: 888 253 7003.


Thanks for your help.  The power of your real life stories will FREE OUR

I was  referring to mobile handcycles (the giant adult tricycles).
I believe the  stationary ones, like the saratoga, are called arm bikes.
Sorry for  not making myself more clear before.

hi luke --

i purchased a quickie shark handcycle from www.bike-on.com last year and i
love it! it's a great way to build strength and get an aerobic exercise in
as well. i recommend the shark, but it's a lot lower to the ground than the
shadow which makes the transfers slightly more difficult -- especially
getting out! i like how the shark leans back and has a headrest making it
much more comfortable for me than the others i tried. good luck with your
bike -- let me know how you like it!

 Has anyone purchased a handcycle online?  Is the Shadow a good handcycle?

 I'm going to take a Walking for fitness class next semester and I
 thought this would be an awesome way to exercise.

[QUAD-L] about mach 2 handcycle from sportaid

2007-08-04 Thread RONALD L PRACHT
luke,
   
  i got 26 inch wheels for a few reasons, first is gives you more adjustment 
for long legs(im 6'2) , give you more performance as far as speed, and is the 
same size as my wheelchair wheels.
   
  im going with the standard frame length instead of the short
   
  im getting the transfer handles on both sides to extend the seat legth from 
16 to about 20 so i can put my jay 2 cushion on there...aand if ev erything 
works out i will put a jay 2 solid back instead of a sling back. 
   
  im also going to add an auto style seatbelt and some kind of carrier 
undeneath the seat for my survival tools. 
   
  im going with toxic green
   
  you just have to make sure that when its all set up you have enough leg 
length and the crank is high enough not to hit your knees when you turn, thats 
why im making sure everything is set up for a tall man

i commend all you quads for making it as long as you have.  any number  of 
years is a real milestone.  cudos to you all.   i think they  go faster as you 
go and i think mine at least are getting easier.  my  mobility is slowing down 
a bit - so i compensated with a power chair.  the  b/p seems to be getting a 
bit more difficult but it still works.  i'm  loving my grandkids to death and 
am not ready to 'transition' just  yet.   god bless you all..
