Studies conducted by several researchers have shown that people who started early training of sign language tend to exhibit a greater intelligence and social capabilities, since having the ability to use sign language effectively helps them to integrate and interact with other members of their community…
Greetings! I’m Neon but my close friends call me Ne. Before I get into too much detail, there are some things you should know about me. First of all, I weigh 20 amu; light, I know! I have been around for a while, for about 4.5 billion years, but no one knew of my existence because people don’t notice me; it’s so sad! Now into my life story. When a nebula helped form planet Earth, my friends and I were born. However, it took a long time, smart people and a lot of work to get us all free from…
Sherlock Holmes has been featured in several stories by his creator Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Traditionally, he has been highly regarded for his intellect, but many readers question if Holmes has emotions. We do not know Holmes' thoughts, but only those of his friend Dr. John Watson who narrates the stories Holmes is in. I am looking for evidence, however, that he has emotions based on his actions. Even though Holmes may appear to show a complete disregard of emotions at times, I have reason to…
alarms, lyrics in music, my parents calling my name, and considerably more. I would explain hearing to an individual that is deaf would be through signing, as I have taken American Sign Language and learned that people who are deaf hear through their eyes. The way I would describe sound would be with my facial expressions, signs, and word choices. Either being very loud, large, small, or soft, there are innumerable facial expressions that may be leveraged to show and explain how something is or…
William Bolling and John Braidwood. Similar schools emerged across the country, including a school founded by Alexander Graham Bell who adamantly believed that deaf individuals could and should be taught to speak.

The passage of the Education of All Handicapped Children Act in 1975 gave equal rights to public education to all…
While watching or listening to a presenter, an interpreter should analyze the incoming information to figure out if the presenter is attempting to be humorous. Once the interpreter has determined that the presenter is using humor, the interpreter needs to understand what the presenter’s purpose is for telling joke based upon the given social situation. Deaf and Hearing culture use humor in a similar manner. In both cultures the main purpose of humor is to entertain an audience that usually…

This was the story of my diabetic father. Having frequent urination he decided to go to the doctors and mentioned this new condition. Being told it was just his increased…
over the element of air. Astronomically the actual stars of Gemini are coincidentally named Castor and Pollux. Apparently it is rare for mythology and astronomy to agree. Gemini significantly shows a well measure of yin and yang, for those under this sign have a sort of balance about them. It is said that those born under the Gemini, are rather intellectual when it comes to finding out just what they want to know. Instead of going the route of what they are forced to taught,…
LONDON [AP] - Sherlock Holmes was a brilliant detective. He unraveled countless crimes that were too challenging for Scotland Yard to solve.

people do not take their Zodiac sign seriously. They look at horoscopes on social media for fun and don’t think twice about it. I for one take mine very seriously. I know for a fact that I was born to this sign for a specific reason. I am a Scorpio all the way. Anything you read about a Scorpio will be a very clear description of me. I fall under most every characteristic of a Scorpio and I have researched this sign more than anything else in my life. The Scorpio sign can be represented by…
