Thank you VERY much. I will definitely look into the book ASAP. :ty:

My friend downloaded My IP Relay (the application to my Blackberry device). She went to make a call and it connected to the operator but she couldn't send any messages. Incoming calls went to her SN on the device through AIM and not through the application. Anyone have issues with it? How did...

Are you talking abt transferring the SIM card back and forth between the two phones? If yes, then the answer to your question is "no". The Blackberry devices have separate plans. The Sidekick Unlimited Plan is only for Sidekicks. It you purchase a "Data Only" plan, then maybe, but you would have...

Thanks for the response jillio. I am not referring to brain trauma. I am referring to Post Traumatic Stress Disorder or emotional trauma from assault, abuse, etc. Also, what I need to look into is - is all language processed the same way or is visual language processed differently from spoken...

Just wanted to update you guys: Semester is officially in full-swing and so far - so good. :-) My teachers have been very accommodating. The FM system is working pretty well for what I need (I'm pretty lost w/o it) so we'll see how my next audiogram turns out and then go from there. HA's are...

Hi all, I am a research assistant at my university and the psychologist I work under presented an interesting theory that I would like to explore in research paper for my ASL 4 class. Because traumas are stored in the occipital lobe and are very visual/iconic, processing them using spoken...

I got the pin from SoundBytes.com.

I hear you on that one! (no pun intended) I work in a small boutique and it has been VERY frustrating. For the 5 years I have been there, I have been "hearing" and now I am hard of hearing. I have a pin that says "Please look at me and speak slowly and clearly...I am hard of hearing" and I wear...

The girl could be signing "birthday". I have seen the "ear-pull" meaning "happy birthday" as a regional sign in CA. In Buffalo we use dominant hand, A handshape and brush up from the heart two times (sort of like the sign for Canada, but the movement is different).

As an aside...you really have to wonder...I mean, I for one, would kill to be a fly on the wall at an interpreting center. The calls they must field. LMAO. :giggle:

Well, here is a story for you all. . . . I work as a one-on-one aid to a deaf woman with a learning disability. We go on outings, do fun things around the community and chat because no one in the house where she lives knows ASL. Yesterday, when I arrived at the house, the manager had left...

Hey all, Anyone up for a chat? I'm feeling kinda yucky. :( AIM iceDiscus45

WHY are relationships so difficult? Sometimes I don't even think they are worth half the trouble that they create! I really don't know many lesbians in my area, and honestly haven't made the most honest attempts to meet many either, but I have gone out a few times. Out of the three dates that I...

I recently ordered the Krown Door Knock 400 Signaler from SoundBytes.com. I am hard of hearing and this signaler has the option of a loud (105db I think) alert with the strobe light. You can also put it on your doorknob and if someone tries to open the door, it will flash/sound. Soundbytes.com...

I am sorry you're angry! I agree that deaf children should be exposed to both cultures/languages fully. I think things are *slowly* changing in that people are more "open minded" about the options available to them when they have a child with a disability (not just deafness, but autism...

Thanks so much deafdyke for the advice. :ty: I am quite familiar with St. Mary's actually. I didn't know they did audiological evaluations though. My ENT just sent me to my university and to another place too (I've been all around). Yeah, the hope is that I won't need the FM system after...

Hey all, My doctor and audiologist are urging me to consider hearing aids as they may benefit me at work, school, out in group settings, etc. They have been pressing the issue for some time, but I have been holding off (mostly embarrassment, I hate to admit). It is a big adjustment. Sometimes I...

I saw the movie awhile ago. I picked it up because I enjoy practicing my receptive skills. The girl (Dot, I believe was her name?) stops talking and engages in the silent world after she blames herself for her father's accident. He walked out in front of a truck and didn't hear it approaching...

Thanks so much everyone!! The director of the rescue LOVES it and she was so excited when one of the "Featured Dogs" was adopted. lol It is my first website. I am taking a web programming course online this semester. :-)
