-- the Secret Service and the deaf
We have been reading the newspapers on the bad job
the Secret Service is doing protecting our
president. What about the deaf? We will also
remember the fake sign language interpreter in
South Africa that was making no sense during his
fake signing of Obama's speech. It was the Secret
Service's job to check the faker's background and
they didn't!
-- deaf becoming important weather service volunteers
We have hearing people that look for hurricanes
and storms and inform the National Weather Service
with the information. What about the deaf? About
25 deaf people have been trained by the National
Weather Service in Tennessee to become official
weather volunteers. They also look for hurricanes,
strong winds, hail storms and tornadoes.
-- something about Google Glass we don't know about
We know that the Google Glass is supposed to show
movie captions and act as our lipreading machine.
But for lipreading, it must work with the Android
smartphone and with a special app. Without the
Android and the app, the Google Glass is useless
as a lipreading machine!
