Moving along, or not, as the case may be
Sudden Silence Freeze Frame As of tomorrow, I've had my CI approval letter for one week. So far, I haven't gotten any new information. It's starting to get frustrating, but I also haven't been pursuing it as aggressively as I could so it's just as much my fault as the doctor's office. On Friday, when I got [...]

AGBell In Bed With Cochlear Implant Companies
Mishka Zena Originally posted on August 7th, 2007   AGB In Bed with Cochlear Implant Companies AGB is a non-profit organization to which parents turn for ‘unbiased’ information and advice. How can it be unbiased if it’s sponsored by commercial corporations invested in making millions of dollars and so far hasn’t shown reliable data for its products?  I find it [...]

What You Really Could Do About DBC and AGBAD Conference!
RLMDEAF Many of you probably could not go to Milwaukee for attending the Deaf Bilingual Coaltion (DBC) conference this June 27-29 weekend. Something you could do is to write a letter of concern or inquiry to Jeannie Aquino and Annysa Johnson of "Milwaukee Journal Sentinel" for its questionable and biased news reporting about what is going on with the Deaf Bilingual Coalition ...

For DBC in Milwaukee, A Marching Song!
The Deaf Child: A Mythology I am reposting this revised “marching” song I wrote last year when the DBC (before they were formed) led a protest at AGBell's summer conference on AVT in Virginia. This song was written and is now dedicated to DBC and their noble, honorable, and very important work for deaf children worldwide. Octopus Volt refers to [...]

So far, so good
Journey to Deaf Identity I'm doing well in graduate school, although a bit amused with teenagers here for 'summer camps' running around on campus (and pulling fire alarms- no difference between hearing and deaf kids when it comes to pulling fire alarms!)

Not Only Deaf--Today I Was Mute

After several attempts to connect to the WIFI, I finally settled back to make the call. The f...

A Question of Statistics ?
At The Rim I'm a supporter of deaf village (My blog isn't there !), AND deaf.read, mainly because I approve of those who are prepared to challenge the status quo anyway. Why should anyone put up with a refusal to provide access from anyone ? There is no 'Right' of entitlement to do that.
