Autism Genes On NOVA Science
Every parent or sibling, therapist or friend of an autistic person could write a book about his or her experience knowing, living with, and attempting to help that person. It's like trying to describe your beloved Earth to aliens in another galaxy. Nevertheless, NOVA scienceNOW encourage you to share your story, in abbreviated form-try writing the book jacket rather than the book, or focusing on a single incident or trait that speaks volumes rather than actually writing volumes. You don't have to be a writer. To get things started, Peter Tyson, Editor in chief, NOVA Online, posts the first story "All About My Son": http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/sciencenow/0402/04.

PROMISE YOURSELF
by Christian D. Larson
To be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.
To talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person you meet.
To make all your friends feel that there is something worthwhile in them.
To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true.
To think only of the best, to work only for the best and to expect only the
best.
To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your
own.
To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements
of the future.
To wear a cheerful expression at all times and give a smile to every living
creature you meet.
To give so much time to improving yourself that you have no time to
criticize others.
To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too
happy to permit the presence of trouble.
To think well of yourself and to proclaim this fact to the world, not in
loud work, but in great deeds.
To live in the faith that the whole world is on your side, so long as you
are true to the best that is in you.

Editorial Policy: Jane's List items are selected by our editors based upon information you have sent us as well as 'field experience' conducted by our editors. We want to keep the legitimacy, integrity and fun of Jane's List intact so we'll never make a dime off your meal at a restaurant nor a penny from the sale of the latest toy we told you about. And we ask the same in return: all submissions about a product or business to Jane's List should follow the same guideline (that you not affiliated with the business). We want you to send us your information to include in our daily lists: available nanny/babysitter (or need for a babysitter/nanny), a fun place/event to take your children for fun (especially if free), a great place for mom's night out, fun crafts to do with your kids, that awesome new exercise class you have taken, your garage sale, items you wish to sell, great recipe, funny video, sentimental poem, great gift ideas, important safety information, etc. We also LOVE to receive announcements (birth, press coverage of a local mom or business, etc) and will always be happy to post them. You can submit your requests to us at kristy@parkcityjane.com ATTN: Jane's List Item. Please make sure that you give us plenty of advance notice (we require a week in advance to guarantee posting your information).
And, no, we would never sell our subscriber list to anyone--that would be lame.
