There has been considerable difficulty with that. There are only two male students both qualified and willing, and because of difficulties experienced with some of the transients being provocative towards the female interpreters, both the Mission and the SLID (Sign Language Interpreting...

I don't exactly know where to post this, but this is an important question, nonetheless. I have been living at the Union Gospel Mission in Chattanooga TN for nearing on 10 months. I had mentioned in the application that my major was Sign Language Interpreting, and that, in situations of...

Yes, I know a good bit of people here are not Christian, but...I really don't care if you accept me. Just understand that the following video is what the church is for. Many churches have failed, but many still will go on, because they follow the example of pastor Straton: 0SUJOcRU-_w

Ipod's are supposed to be high-tech, while audio cassettes are considered low-tech (That's why I am having the hardest time finding mini-cassettes). The pic is calling ipods low-tech.

This is a quote from progressiveu.org by user mvenus929. I do not know if this has made it onto AD, since I have been gone for a while and only thought to return when I got completely ticked at this ruling. While I don't fully agree with the writer's point of view on being Deaf, I will let...

my intro My introduction to the Deaf community actually occurred in two parts (thus far). Firstly, I started college at Tennessee Temple University as a Pre-law major (for those who know about TTU, that is the Interdisciplinary BA program). I had a single semester of what my high school...

I was visiting Harvest Baptist Church for the Deaf in Ringgold, GA, and noticed in the middle of one of the many conversations that I was signing without speaking or even really thinking about what my next sign was. I was just....speaking in sign like I do in English (Yes, I am a hearie, so I...

That quote came from Deafcasting's blog. I hope to be able to watch this show after church service on Sunday. I was just sitting in the dagum Labor Ready waiting on them to call my name (which they didn't) and CBS airs the commercial starting with a guy on a piano, and then the same guy in a...

I think another reason behind the oral methods is ignorance. Somewhere between 75% and 85% of Deaf children are born into hearing families. Most Parents of Deaf children (PODC???) are automatically introduced to deafness as a pathology, a problem that needs to be fixed. That is how most...

My PS was meant to try and make a course correction back to the original topic. Make a niote of that.

Side note: I know, I have been absent for a long while, but I am still alive. on topic: Cloggy, I live in a town that is 20,000 people small, and am able to tell you where in that town a good half of the Deaf community is and keep track of Deaf culture, and all that from one hour of actually...

EyeFetch Photoshopped - flower photoshop by forest_ranger254 I hope this works. I made this one. It is my first time using Picasa to do this. I basically supersaturated the colors in the flower and sharpened it. Click the link to go see the picture. I don't know how to embed an Eyefetch...

Ok, run down for those who won't understand: The person in the middle is a normal person. The first person comes in holding a dollar bill, a sign and a rope with a loop at the end. The man takes the money (since it is for a place in Mexico, the sign says Dinero, which is spanish for...

S9qOy8ZZ9ew There we go, fixed it

I think that little girl at the end drives the nail in with a hammer. Aren't they the ones who benefit from what we do now?

hKnF9CCYQPQ Figured a little of this might get some responses here. I am going to try elsewhere too.

http://www.youtube.com/v/S9qOy8ZZ9ew This video was posted by one of my Deaf friends. Hope you all like it. She is the third person with a rope and sign. Her roommate is the first one.

I remember in my ASL class that people who would not be quiet were sent from the class and marked as absent. Most colleges have a portion of the grade as attendance, but at TTU, you cannot miss more than two weeks of classes with even one unexcused absence. Since it was marked as absence for...

I don't know. Does anyone know if it has different syntax or anything like that?

Yes it is. It is the same thing I hear from websites on other manual systems, so I wanted to know a little more than a general overview of every system. What are specifics on this system.
