ASL Captioning Test on Hi! I'm Taric Alani, and I'm here in my room, using American Sign Language, testing Google Video with closed captioning. Thank you for watching.

Is there any chance we can get support for Google Video? YouTube does not support closed captions, but Google Video does.

Low-Vision VP There are three requirements for receiving a Soreson VP. 1) You must be Deaf, Hard-of-Hearing, Oral Deaf, Latened Deafened, DeafBlind or have a speech disability. 2) You must sign ASL. 3) You must have high-speed internet. If you are not totally fluent in ASL, that's fine. As...

Sorenson Caller ID Yes, if a Hearing person calls you with Sorenson VRS, and you do not answer, your Sorenson VP will show "Sorenson VRS (caller's ph number)" in the missed calls list. It does not matter if the Hearing person leaves a message or not. The Hearing person's telephone number will...

Tadoma and Cued Speech The Tadoma method was invented by American teacher Sophie Alcorn and developed at the Perkins School for the Blind in Massachusetts. It is named after the first two children to whom it was taught: Winthrop "Tad" Chapman and Oma Simpson. SEE (Signing Exact English) or MCE...

"[A]nd" what? "[A]nd" what?

Videotape sign In ASL, "video" and "videotape" are the same sign. My signing friends almost always sign "video" but voice "videotape". I reply, "tape? tape? where's the tape?" "Ok videoclip! You know what I mean." :p

Do not just push buttons That is no way to communicate. If you are Deaf, and you do not have a TTY, use Nextalk to call your home/cell phone, then make a 3-way call to 9-1-1. If you do not have a computer, use your Sidekick or other wireless device to use the relay service to call your home...

Thanks for the welcome I thank you for you understanding. Also, I wonder, could you give us a little more information on your own philisophy on parenting a Deaf/Hard-of-Hearing child, as well as how you believe it impacts Lily personaly? What method(s) do you believe in?: lipreading, speech...

Equal 911 Access All 911 call centers are mandated to answer the phone with a TTY, if the operator hears no audio, after announcing 911 twice. If you want to alert the 911 operator you are a TTY user, DO NOT PRESS ANY (DTMF) BUTTONS ON THE PHONE! You may press (baduot) buttons, such as the...

Misrepresentitive News That is precisely why I directed my comments towards the narrator. My response was not towards the parent. Allow me to explain why. First of all, I doubt the narrator's comments were an accurate. This story, just like nearly all CI news articles, in my experiance...

Not stupid Hello, Lillys dad, thanks for welcoming me. First of all, I'd like to let you know my name is Taric, not Tariq. Although the Arabic spelling is Tariq, my name is Taric. Second of all, I did not call you or anyone of AllDeaf a Heafie. To start, you are Hearing, so it's physically...

You're welcome You're very welcome. Thanks for taking the time to give credit where credit is due. :-)

New Deaf Adults Why not? Do you live in an area where a Deaf community doesn't exist, or do you simply not have the time or otherwise? Actually, my name should be spelled Tariq, but when I was born, Taric got on my birth certificate. :) Also, in response to your post... To give you an example...

I'm not a girl. I'm a guy. I did not intend to sound rude in my response. I'm sorry for the misunderstanding. I should have put a smiley face or something after it, so show you it was in good humor and not in ill feelings. Please do not harbor any ill feelings towards me. I would very much like...

Life After Deaf That's absolutely right. Many parents don't realize there's life after deaf.

Wireless E911 for Deaf No, that is NOT true. All 911 call centers are requires to be voice/tty/vco/hco. If you are Deaf and you do not speak, the 911 operator will announce, "911 please state your emergency. Hello? 911, please state your emergency." If the 911 operator hears no reponse, the 911...

Heafie Well, I'm not saying that American Sign Language is the best option, because I don't think it is. I think Cued Speech is the best option. ASL gives you a language, but it's incongruent with English. SEE (Signed Exact English) is congruent with English writing, but it doesn't teach...
