    Train the Trainer, Please!

    In Middle and High Schools, What were your hardest classes? and Why? Math were my worst subjects. Why? I wasn't prepared to take on Honors Math class in 7th grade. 7th grade was my first year to be fully mainstreamed; the teacher weren't paying attention to me so I got lost in a 30+...

    Hungover Kitty

    Hmm, not to kill the "aww" and "ohh" but I think that cat could be sick-- some type of neurological damage. Poor cat. Hope it is not anything serious wrong with the brain due to its condition.

    Train the Trainer, Please!

    The most important question for me is: Are you an intervention trainer for D/HH students only? I am refraining my answers for your survey until you answer this question. :-)

    Vegetarian "meat"

    Maybe you need to reprogram yourself... A "burger" doesn't mean it should have meat. Burger just means that it is two buns with something in between along with lettuce and cheese. According to American Heritage, the definition is: "2# A similar sandwich with a nonbeef filling. Often used in...

    I disagree in movie theater!

    They do in San Diego's Union Tribuane newspaper.. you will see the icon of [CC] or [OC] next to whatever movies that are offered at certain locations. So maybe it is more of up to the newspaper companies that should include this information? But at the same time, the movie theatres should...

    Self Moving Trucks

    Pah FINALLY my husband is convinced that driving cross-country is better and saves money (even saves time! most moving companies said it will take them 6 days just to transport, excluded the time we take to pack up and them to pick it up et cetera... JESUS!) So now we are trying to figure...

    Ditch vehicle, you would?

    I will definitely use the public transportation if it is convenient for me-- however I will still need a car to get to a remote area where there is no transportation connected there to here (e.g. national parks, deserts etc in Southern California). But it will be NICE to not drive all the...

    How do you deal with requests for sign name?

    I just tell them: "Sorry, I dont know you that well, so I am not qualified to give you a name sign. Get a deaf FRIEND and s/he probably will get you a name sign once s/he got tired of fingerspelling your name." I think the name signs are only granted to those who are COMMITTED to socalize...

    Self Moving Trucks

    I will prefer to move to NYC-- more people so it will be more easier for me to blend in. Nobody cares about you. Nobody bugs you. Perfect! The population won't send me into a shock. The more, the merrier! It will be the lack of beaches, lack of laidback people, and lack of diversity in jobs...

    Sequoia:: I did try the websites-- it is LOUSY as well. I haven't got one SINGLE email. only two did give me a quote instantly. Grr! I think the moving companies are just behidn with technology-- email AND phone. Lucia:: I did think about renting a cargo van and just stuff it like crazy.But...

    Self Moving Trucks

    Since I already made peeps about the fact that I am moving to D.C. this summer, I thought I could make a thread about moving trucks-- I am interested in hearing your experiences with various moving trucks companies such as U-Haul, BUdget etc.. I am more interested in SELF moving (means: no...

    personal how-do-you thread

    Got a workshop tomorrow to see Carol Padden (ooo, big name!), a possibly last meeting for CAD chapter on Sunday, while preparing the LAST WEEK OF TEACHING ASL CLASSES (WHEEEEEEEEEE) but alas preparing the finals too (yuck). This hectic schedule will be over in a matter of weeks and I will be...

    DEBATE: Quality of AllDeaf

    I have been around here since 2003, I think-- The quality of threads has got bad, imo. There is no debate. It is either a flaming war, backstabbing, or "Omg, like I just totally got a new gfd!" then one day later :"sob sob, she hates me!" as if the ADers are valley girls(even the guys)...
