"6-year-old girl 'on verge of never hearing again' (sm)

"A 2-year-old Kentucky girl was accidentally killed by her 5-year-old brother who fired a rifle he had been given as a gift, officials said Wednesday." Parents can be arrested for not reporting a missing child. It's not even legal to let your child drive a car without a permit. Yet, this sad, sad story is unfortunately way too common. We MUST start holding adults accountable for guns in the home. ...

Okay, so the parents think this child knows what she is doing so they let her sail around the sea, BY HERSELF???? What is good gawd's name is going on in this world. The girl is a child for pete's sake. She hasn't even graduated high school, not onld enough to drink, just old enough to have her drivers licence and they let her go out to see all alone??? Trusting your child is one thing. We're talking about the ocean where even the most experience ...

I thought is was bad when they changed the voting age to 18 because I don't think most 18-year-olds have a very good grasp of history and politics at that age, but on the Washington Journal this morning, a 17-year-old called in and stated she is registered to vote and will be voting in Nov. What next? Where will it stop? ...

Obviously, I'll dress classy for this hearing, but I'll admit it, I considered an "I WAS with Stupid" t-shirt, but don't think I can have it made in time. ...

After more than 40 years of MT'ing, I have lost 80% hearing in left ear and 10% in right ear. This, according to doc, is definitely due to constant sound assault on my ears for all of these years. I now need dual hearing aids; the left ear to compensate for severe hearing loss and the right ear to prevent hearing loss. I will be getting them within the next week. My real concern is whether I will be able to wear either my in-the-ear headset or over-the-head head ...

I figure as long as I have milk and food, dog and cat food and cat litter we are ok. But I tell you people hear snow and they flock to the store big time makes me laugh actually I wouldn't have gone out except that I needed milk and hamburger. ...

Eric Holder Challenged At Hearing Over AP Subpoenas, IRS Scandal WASHINGTON — Congressional Republicans and Democrats on Wednesday challenged Attorney General Eric Holder over the Justice Department's handling of the investigation of national security leaks and its failure to talk to The Associated Press before issuing subpoenas for the news service's telephone records.

It's sad. The hate coming from Franken and Whitehouse is disgusting. All the Dems are asking questions that can't be answered yes or no but don't want an explanation. Others like Franken and Whitehouse don't want a judge who follows the rule of law or the Constitution,they want a political judge and they want him to push to change law, which, as Judge Gorsuch stated over and over again "That's not my job. That's your job" (pointing out that he m ...

Hi, all. I was diagnosed last year with hearing loss and this year went back for test and there is a significant drop. They are doing a couple of tests to rule out Meniere's Disease at the end of this month. No matter what, I am going to have to get something to help me continue in this field or go with another job (nursing, coding, etc.). I am working with the Ability Works in my state and they will help me get equipment like hearing aids, specialized heatsets, etc. ...

Benghazi Hearing: Your Government at Work By Jonathan Karl May 8, 2013 12:00pm This is the strangest thing … As today’s big Benghazi hearing gets underway, Republicans are saying Ambassador Thomas Pickering – the co-chairman of the State Department’s committee investigating of the Benghazi attack – has refused to testify today. The State Department says the opposite is true – that Pickering wanted to testify but Republicans w ...

Over the past couple of years I have had slight decreased hearing and also difficulty understanding words dictated when QA says they are perfectly clear to them. The last one told me to get a better headset, but I can't afford it. I was told by a person who used to do QA that when they listen, they have it on a different system that provides better sound quality. I'm not sure if it's my ears or the system. These are words I know, I just can't understan ...

Here's the thing, I think they spend too much time together and ever since school let out for summer, they have been getting into fights. And I don't mean arguments. I mean I hearing screaming and yelling and things breaking in the basement. So I go in there and what is happening is my son's girlfriend loses her temper and she hits my son. When I say hit, I mean she punches him in the face, backhands him in the mouth. My son has a really bad temper, b ...

You'd think Sen. Johnson would have had enough sense yesterday, but definitely today, not to go with confrontational (and now we know uninformed/uneducated) questioning without even watching the classified video, a viewing of which Senators were invited to attend--he didn't... but he can still sit there and act like a know-it-all. Kerry was splendid. ...

C-Span 3 has a hearing on the acquisition of Smithfield. The man testifying, Daniel Slane states if China buys Smithfield, what keeps them from dominating the free market? Also, American companies can't buy into Chinese food companies so we shouldn't allow them or any other country to buy our food producing companies, especially since it would be more than likely that they would move the company overseas and then sell Smithfield products back to the U.S. at a higher price and lesser st ...

Rep. Mel Watts is babysitting. He came into the hearing with his grandson, had him sitting on his lap. Holder stated he thought kids were only seen at confirmation hearings whereas everyone laughed. After the 2nd question, the little guy started getting antsy, so he handed him off to someone out of camera range at which point, the little guy started to complain, so Rep. Watts had to take him back. (He got another laugh over that.) The little guy settled down then and Rep. Watts could fin ...
