    Maine Mayor Wants To Make Names And Addresses Of Welfare Recipients Public

    I don't believe it is legal to pulbish that which is protected by federal law. The good Mayor will bite more than he can chew. Besides a lot of this stuff is pre-election political stuns for a dozen things. Getting face and name in the public, enriching political war chest, potential votes for...

    Is life harder for the deaf?

    I am LV and HOH which means I am legally deaf and blind even though I can see a little, and hear a little. I am fine in my house but not so fine when I am outside and alone which does not happen too often. . My biggest worry is being run down by the drivers who have no idea what a white cane...

    Subway Jared Fogle to guilty on child porn charges

    Here is Indiana Law. "In Indiana, the age of sexual consent is 16. However, this number is nearly arbitrary, as the law permits individuals aged 14 and 15 to consent to sex with anyone younger than 18. "Thus, despite the age of majority, a 15-year-old and 17-year-old could legally have...

    Online Training - your help needed!

    Truthfully, in my opinion, the best way to learn is to become it. I have been HOH for a long time, but I am slowly going deaf. The ear guy that makes wax ear molds can probably make you molds that will temporarily stop most of your normal hearing. Borrow a white cane, put on dark glasses...

    92-Year-Old Woman Kicked Out Of Georgia Church

    92 yo and shunned. What was the alleged crime? Feeble and poor. What this group actually stands for is as painfully clear, as is what the bible says about Faith, Hope, and Love. Timothy 6:10 "For the love of money is the root of all evil." The devil is in the details. IMHO there are too many...

    5 Best Free Communication Apps for Deaf & HH

    I just looked at the app. It looks easy enough, and I like the idea, but I would not use it. I do not feel that google is trustworthy.

    Where Deaf and HOH people out there???

    AFAIK the only place to find deaf/HoH groups is in large towns with at least a 100000 population. It is unlikely to find deaf groups in rural areas? It is extremely frustrating if you live in one of these small farm towns and do not communicate well.

    Target Removing Gender Label

    Target has been around for enough years it should know better than to pull a stunt like that. All budding engineers will play with Lincoln Logs and Logo sets. Sex should not be an issue. .

    Why are you deaf?

    Who is to say? I had the fever and the mycin drugs, tubes in my ears, head bounced off floors from falling, etc. Hearing in my right ear is almost 100% gone. I still have about 60% hearing in the right ear. Some days the tinnitis and recruitment are more than annoying. My brother is...

    Annoying spam ads

    About the lusty lovelies. One followed me here. I chatted with Alex and then called Century Link Corporate Office. I was positive that if they could keep that off my computer 5 years ago, they could keep it out today. And they did. My personal view of this is simple. It is a form of soft porn...
