  • Get to Feel Good About Themselves, but Once Again, the Actual Australian Comedian, Journalist and Disability Wheelchair User Is Placed in a Supporting Role
    Journal of Vocational Rehabilitation 50 (2019) 301–305 301 DOI:10.3233/JVR-191011 IOS Press Stop Making It Weird 2.0: Imagining a less-weird world Jolene M. Thibedeau Boyda,∗ and Cassandra J. Beckmanb aCommunity Involvement Programs, Minneapolis, MN, USA bAssociation for People Supporting EmploymentFirst, Rockville, MD, USA Revised/Accepted November 2018 Abstract. BACKGROUND: The authors continue the dialogue, initiated in 2016, discussing how disability service professionals and society at large can unintentionally create “weird” situations for people with disabilities by creating “special”—that is, segregated—activities and events for people with disabilities, rather than working to include individuals with disabilities in the activities and events that already happen in communities. The authors further explore the continuing trend of calling out and excessively celebrating people’s actions and accomplishments based solely on the fact that they experience a disability. This session shares examples of people with disabilities in the news and social media, encouraging discussion about the difference between drawing attention to events that are newsworthy because of their historical context versus those that merely reinforce disability stereotypes. OBJECTIVE: It is critical to continue challenging disability stereotypes and questioning the value of segregated, disability- specific activities that serve to exclude people with disabilities from the community at large, even as they celebrate these “special” opportunities. CONCLUSION: In this session, a panel of individuals who experience disability shares personal experiences with this kind of “weirdness” and suggest ways to #stopmakingitweird. The authors provide ideas and discussion to encourage disability professionals, family members of people with disabilities, and people from the community at large to consider their own assumptions and stereotypes while challenging those whom they know and interact with to do the same.

  • Amber J. Keyser
    Did you know that the world’s first bra dates to the fifteenth century? Or that wearing a nineteenth-century cage crinoline was like having a giant birdcage strapped around your waist? Did you know that women during WWI donated the steel stays from their corsets to build battleships? For most of human history, the garments women wore under their clothes were hidden. The earliest underwear provided warmth and protection. But eventually, women’s undergarments became complex structures designed to shape their bodies to fit the fashion ideals of the time. When wide hips were in style, they wore wicker panniers under their skirts. When narrow waists were popular, women laced into corsets that cinched their ribs and took their breath away. In the modern era, undergarments are out in the open. From the designer corsets Madonna wore on stage to Beyoncé’s pregnancy announcement on Instagram, lingerie is part of everyday wear, high fashion, fine art, and innovative technological advances. This feminist exploration of women’s underwear— with a nod to codpieces, tighty- whities, and boxer shorts along the way—reveals the intimate role lingerie plays in defining women’s bodies, sexuality, gender identity, and body image. It is a story of control and restraint but also female empowerment and self- expression. You will never look at underwear the same way again. REINFORCED BINDING AMBER J. KEYSER TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY BOOKS / MINNEAPOLIS For Lacy, who puts the voom in va-va-voom Cover photograph: Photographer Horst P. Horst took this image of a Mainbocher corset in 1939.

  • Ham Lake Contacts Two-Car Crash; One Car Had Left the Scene
    Green Lights Recycling is a Minnesota-based recycling company which adheres to the highest regulatory standards in the nation. Since 1995 they have maintained a track record for responsible recycling and have kept over 99 million pounds of waste out of landfills. They currently work with several cities to run recycling drop-off days at their facility. These cities include: Blaine, Anoka, Ham Lake, Fridley, Centreville, Lexington, and Spring Lake Park. Green Lights Recycling, Inc. would be accepting fluorescent lamps, batteries, electronics, appliances, mattresses, tires, scrap metal, hard drives for shredding, carpet, furniture, and paper for shredding. This kind of drop-off event is fully coordinated by Green Lights Recycling and no city staff would have to be on site. Resident wait times at these drop-off events are usually brief (less than 20 minutes). The base price to the City would be about $2,575 for labor and the shredding truck. A fee would be charged to the residents per item unless Arden Hills provides coupons. Some don’t offer any subsidies and others provide 2-4 items free to incentivize participation. Green Lights Recycling is located at 10040 Davenport St NE in the City of Blaine and is a 10- minute drive from City Hall.
