I am way behind on the hot topic and news on the Deaf community in general, mainly because I have been very busy lately and I could never find the time to write an article anywhere including my blog here but at least I will share my thought about this topic “Deaf Cultural Genocide” that was going around a few weeks ago. That would be better than not sharing any thoughts of mine on that topic so here I am to give a piece of my thought on the topic that was trending in the Deaf community, several weeks ago an associate professor at Gallaudet University wrote an article stating that if anyone who is Deaf or Hard of Hearing decides to participate in the medical or science research that supposedly cure deafness by receiving genetic therapy that they would allow a form of cultural genocide and it would be unethical of them to do so. There are medical research labs or sciences especially that specialize in stem cells, compete to come up with a proven cure to eliminate the deafness either at birth or at some minimum to maximum ages for anyone who want to have the ability to hear and or that the child who was discovered Deaf after the birth to have the ability to hear at…

Dear President-Elect Donald Trump. I have thought for several hours on whether I should bother to write this or not but I have decided that a few important matters cannot be as easily dismissed so I have decided to write this public letter to you, President-Elect Donald Trump. Before I can begin, I would like to say that you may or may not acknowledge that I am not a fan of you being one of candidates for presidency here the United States and on my conscience I could not simply vote you to become the next President of the United States. I am one of millions who have voted Hillary Clinton to become the 45th President of the United States, while you understand that I have the right to vote whomever I feel that the person would be better at presidency than any other candidates including yourself but unfortunately Hillary Clinton could not get enough electoral votes. Though the candidate I voted for may have lost the presidency does not means that I would not accept that you have won the presidency, I humbly accept you to be the next President of the United States and I am looking forward to what you can do for the Americans. The reason I rooted and voted for Hillary Clinton is because I…
For the Deaf community, we are starting to see some of the places all over here in the United States who finally been educated and is aware of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing people to the point that they started renovating counties or cities themselves to make sure that they are accessible for everybody equally regardless their backgrounds. For several decades, by now almost everywhere in the United States is now accessible for the people who is wheelchair-bound and for the people who is senior citizens but never make the places to be accessible for the people who is Deaf or Hard of Hearing. Even though Deaf community have been around here for centuries, yet the officials in the counties or cities were aware of the people who is in wheelchair-bounds and senior citizens so they added a section in the Americans with Disabilities Act law that most of the buildings whether it be business, private, public or residential must build an accessible for the people who is in wheelchairs by building ramps along with making it easier for senior citizens to get access to the buildings without having to climb up the stairs. A few decades ago a lot of people looks at them as a disability, respects them and look at them almost equally although I am…
There are hundreds or thousands of news outlets, including the big names of news companies, medium companies, and unknown companies, that everybody reads daily to gather information about what is happening in this country, whether in the United States or internationally. Some people don’t follow or keep up with current events or news about what is happening locally, nationally, and globally. But several people do keep up with the news, including myself, so we can be informed about what is happening in our country here in the United States or in other countries. There are a few services that allow some of us to personalize some news that we would like to get daily under our favorite sources, such as Google News, Yahoo News, Bing News, and some news apps like that news app in iOS 10 that allows you to personalize the way news you want them to come to you. My go-to for getting some information and news is Google News, which allows me only to get most of the news from the sources/news outlet that I prefer, and there is other news related that I personalized to get. For example, United States, Politics, World, Technology, Business, Social Media, Domain, Hosting, Deaf, Kentucky, and West Virginia are my related news picks. Not in a particular order; nonetheless, I…
Hey guys! How are you all doing, I hope that everything is going well over there and as for me I am doing well over here amid a bothersome health issue but I am going to try to not let that stop me from writing another tidbits. But how about that game between Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears two nights ago on Thursday night?! Of course some of you already know that I am a huge fan of Green Bay Packers, I have been a fan of Green Bay Packers at the age four in the year of 1991 which is somewhat irony because as some of you know that Brett Favre’s number was four when he was playing for Green Bay Packers after being traded to Green Bay Packers from Atlanta Falcons in the year of 1992 which is a year after I became a fan of the Green Bay Packers. I very much remember watching Don Majkowski who were Green Bay Packer’s starter quarterback at that time that I became a fan of the team Green Bay Packers, Don Majkowski had played as Packer’s starter quarterback from the years of 1989 to the year of 1992 when he was injured in the game against Cincinnati Bengals and he was replaced by the backup quarterback namely Brett Favre…
Unfortunately I am out of the topics or stuff to blog about here, so this is just boring and a general post for some of you. I wasn’t planning on to blog tonight but I had something on my mind tonight that I want to put it out here. This is for some of you who are Deaf and Hard of Hearing people. I am looking for somebody who have interest in becoming a blogger, that would like to share their opinions or whatever niches that they are comfortable with the most to share and to write about. If you are interested in becoming a blogger or thinking about becoming a blogger, please contact me either on here by going to the contact tab at the top of the website or contact me through social media which you can find my social information on the right side of the website under the social media links. The reason I am asking is because I want to help Deaf and Hard of Hearing bloggers with my knowledge and my skills as well especially with search engines optimization which they are what helps the articles to be found easier on search engines like Google, Bing or Yahoo! I somewhat have an idea that I would like to share with some of you who…
So here are we again with tidbits, just two days ago I have written a tidbits article for 10-12-2016 and now this is for 10-14-2016. Two nights ago when I was writing that tidbits article, I started off at very late and tonight I am even more late than I was two days ago to start writing tidbits but thankfully it’s the weekend so that gives me just a little room to breath. Although that doesn’t mean that I can be as late as I want to, I am still trying to stick with my bedtime schedule and yes I do have bedtime schedules for my health reasons which I am not going to share that with any of you as it is my private life that no one have the rights to noses in. I don’t mean that in mean way, I mean that in nice as possible way, I just don’t like sharing any information that has anything to do with my life especially my health unless they are serious and I am dying but thankfully I am not dying at the moment so that counts something. It is just the way I am since I was born, I just don’t like to share any kinds of information that is going on with my life out with anybody…
So we are going to have a few topics to read here, well more for all of you guys to read since I am the one who will be writing them but I also read my own anyway to triple check everything, although keep in mind that even though I may be telling you some facts and some true stories tonight but tomorrow, next week, next month or next year may change as we know that the stories or facts keeps on changing when there is something new information. That is one thing that I dislike about blogging, when I double checks the facts and the sources that happens to confirms my information that I will be giving then in the future that my information that I gave had been changed or edited. Any valuable information that sounds too good to be true, I have always provided sources to them to confirm the information that I have written on my blog or on any websites that I own or is on and I have done that since the day I launched JoshiesWorld back in the year of 2007 in August although I took a break by shutting down JoshiesWorld back in the year of 2010 through 2011 I believe or 2009 through 2010. Regardless I follows a few ethnic of…
