  FWD/Forward — Authority: 639
  Something I’ve noticed a lot since starting to drive a scooter is how TERRIFIED people are. Really. On the sidewalks, I zoom along at six kilometres an hour if I’m unaccompanied and there’s no one around. That feels really zoomy to me, having not locomoted that fast bipedally for quite some time.

  FWD/Forward — Authority: 639
  Anna’s “ Four Ways to Do It Right ” post on Bitch recently discussed some positive depictions of disability, and invited people to submit some examples of their own.

  Steve Hoffacker's "Home Sales Insights" — Authority: 127
  As we get ready to leave the starting line and sprint into 2010 , we have been getting the final instructions from the race officials. Weve already heard "take your mark" and "get ready."

• The frustration of incremental progress

  
  FWD/Forward — Authority: 639
  The place I work does a lot of trainings for other organizations on health care programs. A number of health care programs are available only for people with long-term disabilities, so the trainings always include a fair amount of discussion of what disability is and who is disabled. My organization is relatively ...
