    Breathing noises

    Interesting thread. My brother refused to sleep in the same room with me because I breathe too loud. I never thought about actively trying to change my breathing.

    Does the sequester affect any of you? I am trying to make sense of it all. I'm looking for jobs now (mainly government) and if I understand correctly, hiring just got more difficult? Discuss and inform (me)!

    Couples who get a kitten before a baby 'more likely to last'

    Random post of the day! I saw this article and I was curious how many folks had pets prior to having kids? Did it have any (positive or negative) impact on how you approached parenting? Couples who get a kitten before a baby 'more likely to last' - Telegraph "The Marriage Foundation...

    Peanut Butter

    I thought I loved peanut butter, but now that I read this question, I think I just really really like peanut butter flavored things (icing, cookies, oreos, etc). Any smooth brand works for this! :)

    For those with hearing aids, I have 7 questions. Please help!

    1) My parents realized I could not hear well when I was 3. 2) - 3) I don't wear them unless I'm in school or with friends. So that would be about 8-12 hours a day. I just finished school so I tend to not put them in all day. 4) My listening comprehension improves when I wear them, so yes...

    Official AllDeaf Switched At Birth Discussion [tv show on abc family]

    I personally liked the rebuke also. It is a necessary wake up call to realize that reality and the ideas you play (of the future, your spouse, etc) with in your head conflict. Regardless of age or maturity, it is a hard thing to be told and fully realize. I catch myself doing it sometimes...

    Garden Veggies/Fowers/Lawn?

    My parents run a farm as hobby and I help if I'm around. We have almost everything that can handle the northeast climate: Apples, grapes, peaches, all assortments of vegetables, asparagus and a lot of corn. We had some difficulty with rabbits and other critters eating the plants and we finally...

    Hudson Valley, NY

    I don't exactly know where Hudson Valley (google isn't recognizing Hudson Valley as a town/city in NY) is, but there is a deaf meet up in Ithaca, NY that just started in the fall. It is held at a place called Wafflefrolic and it happens on the 3rd Monday of the month I think. It looks like...

    Hello! This question is specifically for hearing aid users! I am currently in the process of getting new hearing aids – my phonak perseo are 8 years old. Growing up, I refused to use a telephone or participate in group meetings. My stress was greatly diminished if I just gave the phone to...

    ASL at Deaf Universities

    I'm HOH also. When I applied to university, I did not consider attending a college strong in ASL, partly because all of my education had been done in a hearing environment via CART or notetakers. Unfortunately, I was also not aware of RIT and Gally. I personally wasn't ready to make a shift to...

    parking in DC

    Thanks for the responses so far. At the moment, I am seriously considering driving. What is the best time to drive to have minimal cars on the road? 3 am, 4 am? It looks like I won't be on the belt way. Google maps tells me to go on 295 to 50 to get to Gallaudet. Another option is to go to...

    parking in DC

    Seeing that some of you attended Gallaudet or live in DC, I thought this might be an appropriate location to ask this question. I am going to Gallaudet for a conference (Thursday) next week (is anyone here going?). The plan was for me to drive to DC on Wednesday, attend conference, and leave...

    hold it and wait or just sell???

    You said you would sell it to him, but you don't state if he confirmed that he would buy it. Unless you made it clear that you wanted a decision or response specifically on Sunday, he did not know buying the bike was contingent on contacting you within a 12 hour range (assuming you called at 8...

    Facebook kills the spirit of the internet

    I think what you are pointing out supports Naisho's point. If the site does not allow you to read other person's post, it means that the posts from the site is not going to be found through a Google search. In some sense, they are a closed community and not encouraging a more diverse...

    ladies and gentlemens I need your help!!

    Just to follow up. This might not be relevant, but I just wanted to point that the ASL videos on you tube that have high post counts are not necessarily watched by d/Deaf. The majority of those are viewed by hearing people like ASL students. Some of us like them, some of us don't. You talked...

    ladies and gentlemens I need your help!!

    Hey Marko, Can you be a little more specific about your project? From what I read, what you are describing may already done through youtube with folks signing songs. Granted, it is not as technical to include fancy lights or sound adjustments. For me personally, adding lights to represent...
