	Teaching Children with Autism: Visual Supports: PECs
		PECS is appropriate for individuals who do not use speech or who may speak with limited effectiveness: those who have articulation or motor planning difficulties, limited communicative partners, lack of initiative in communication, etc.
		I like, too, that PECS symbols are often very quickly acquired, and that they can be rapidly generalized across many aspects of the child's life, without having to teach staff, family, and peers a number of signs along with the child.
		However, while there is little to support the idea that PECS (when done correctly) will impede development of speech, and in fact there is some evidence that the use of such systems enhances the development of speech (Silverman, 1996), the theory among some is that sign may be more effective in developing speech.

	What is the Picture Exchange (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Thus, PECS training could be offered to a fifty year old adult with a cognitive impairment as well as to a two year old with no cognitive impairment.
		Although the PECS strategy is primarily used with individuals who are nonverbal, it could be used with individuals who are primarily echolalic, those who have unintelligible speech, and those who have only a small set of meaningful words or signs in their repertoire.
		Programming for PECS begins with three people in the training situation, the child (or adult) who will be transmitting a message, the person who receives the message (e.g., Mom or the teacher), and the facilitative adult who deliberately assists the message sender to make the targeted response.

	TACA: PECS - Picture Exchange Communication System (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		PECS are used in a variety of ways – starting with pictures – to allow the child to make choices and communicate needs.
		PECS can be used in several ways to have the ASD child communicate to you and for you to provide visual schedules and communicate with them in a way that is easy to understand and organize.
		PECS typically will start with pictures of desired objects (such as food, places, people) and move over time to pictures with sentence strips (for example; I want cookies) then move from pictures to words.

	Thicker Pecs by Machine Workout
		Packing on pec mass through machine training is no problem, provided that I select exercises that don't get too high tech.
		Yes, I will experiment with all the new equipment that comes along, but the more basic and traditional machine movements are the ones I rely on to build a chest that's chiseled with cross-striations and balanced from top to bottom.
		I've notice that the vertical grip lets me feel a greater contraction in my pecs at the top of the movement, allowing me to generate more squeeze and to stretch the pecs farther back in the starting position, much deeper than with the standard grip.

	Decline Presses might help
		A decline bench is the opposite of an incline.
		Also, make sure you are using your pecs maximally when you bench, that might mean going lighter on decline presses, and focusing on trying to squeeze your pecs together, making them move the weight, not your triceps and shoulders.
		Remember, shoulders and triceps are secondary muscles when you bench, and pecs are primary.

		While I generally believe that the upper pecs are the key to bringing out the entire chest, I think it’s important for advanced level trainers to employ a wide array of movements that attack the pecs from a variety of angles.
		High Cable Crossovers: this is an excellent movement to hit the lower pecs as well as the difficult to develop inner pecs.
		Good development of the inner pecs, of course, gives you that nice separation that is a hallmark of a first-rate physique.

	PECS Club - Autism Spectrum Disorders
		I do not own a Laminator, but my idea was that a PECS Club could have a laminator available for meetings, Velcro dots to share as well as cards to cut.
		Instead of meeting locally I followed what coupon and rebate clubs do in mailing the forms and coupons to the next person on the list and sharing what they have while removing what is of interest to their household.
		I still want a PECS Club one day with parents sitting around making PECS cards and sharing bits of information about our children who are either speech delayed, nonverbal and might also be on the Autism Spectrum.
