I am understanding - but you have to realize that there are steps that people have to take. If the steps are messed up for whatever reason, then it's that person fault. Unfortunately, that's how people become free or innocent people are jailed. We have NO idea WHY Obama dropped the charges...

Thanks Jillio...that's EXACTLY what I wanted to say...:ty:

Okay, should I say that if "my brother and dad has been specifically targeted", I will not seek justice against the person that shot them. He's dead. I just take in the satisfaction that the shooter cannot shot anyone anymore, and my dad and bro died for their country. Sometimes it's the...

I don't usually get myself involved with political issues...but I have to say something. If justice was served against the suicide bomber, how will the charges proceed? The bomber is dead. There has to be a REAL good reason why the charges were dropped....it's all about law. Secondly...

Interesting.. I have used the O-Flag sign because it makes sense. Other deaf people in my area (Las Vegas, NV), have used O-Black...which I don't like. I have not met them, but I was told through interpreters. I guess it's another one of those "dialects" that varies from state to state...

In some way I disagree. I used SEE signs when I was much younger because of the English grammar and the way the school taught me. I learned the differences between jump, jumped, jumping. Over time, my signs just evolved to PSE. I do more ASL than PSE, however, I find myself a hard time...

"The Cavern" The Cavern from Wikipedia I got the damn wrong movie. I meant to get "The Cave".

I have to bitch and complain... I saw this movie yesterday, and at first I was like, "Eh, what a boring movie..." until they showed the last minute of the movie. I was SO grossed out, and I can't get the image out of my head. I literally wanted to kill the guy that wrote this movie. All I...

Sorry to be blunt, but what does this have to do with my cat that died of FIP? It has NOTHING to do with his diet.

The implant was causing more trouble than it was worth for smithr. Mind you, this is of those rare cases that it was just causing a lot of problems with his headaches. He also has other medical issues. So, he opted to have surgery to remove it.

You've said it perfectly. This is exactly why the early users of AB who have Clarion implants are pissed off that they cannot use Harmony processors. The internal parts cannot tolerate the powerful external processor. It's not backward compatible. For years, the Clarion users have been...

Med-El.

you can't really see the indentation. Only the person who's feeling it, will. So, no worries there.

Before everyone start freaking out...:-) The indentations is where the surgeon "drilled" a path for the implant arrays to travel to a small hole that's closer to the ear. I'll try to explain. Touch your implant, the rounded part is the coil part, then right below it is thicker part -...

Sorry! One last comment. since you wear ci and has, you're better off getting behind the ear headphones.

It doesn't matter whether you have disposables or rechargeable batteries...EA should work every time. I use rechargeables all the time, and I listen to my iPod. Either you haven't pressed the buttons correctly or your audiologist did not put it in. (When I was first activated, the option was...

I'm a music lover, so it took a while for me to finally get the perfect program for my music. First - it sounds like you have not connected your personal audio cable correctly. Plug it in, then press the < and > buttons the SAME time. You *should* get the "EA" blink once on your LCD...

Mainly - You really have to feel comfortable with your audiologist. Having a great audiologist will enable you to have the fullest experience with programming your CI. My first audiologist said, "Okay you qualify for surgery. Go ahead and make an appointment for surgery", BEFORE she even did the...

I've been through airports three times with my CI...two of them...and the alarms didn't set it off. It's mainly because titanium is a weak metal compared to copper or the like. Someone I know has titanium metal rods in their leg for stabilization...it didn't set off the alarm. Regardless, we...

Hearing aids is only an amplification of your residual hearing. If you have a ski slope type of audiogram, the db gain will only help in the lows, not the highs. Hence why you won't get the clarity and crispiness that you need due to lack of high frequencies. If you feel that your hearing aids...
