Meet the Deaf-Blind Lawyer Fighting For People With Disabilities
Publicado em 31 de jan de 2018

It's easy to forget how inaccessible our world is to anyone with limited vision or hearing. Even something as simple as watching a Facebook video is a challenge due to access barriers. Haben Girma is fighting to change that.
Ahead is a transcript of Haben's interview so that it's accessible to everyone.
Video: Haben sits on a couch
Haben: Deaf-blindness is a rare disability, so most of the time I'm the first person in a certain situation. So I'm used to being a pioneer.
Video: The first shot is Haben typing on a keyboard, and the second shot is Haben speaking at an event
Title reads: Meet the Deaf-Blind Lawyer Fighting For People With Disabilities
Video: Haben sits on a couch
Haben: A lot of my friends know better than to tell me that I can't do something because that's actually encouragement to try to find a solution.
Video: In the first shot, Haben communicates via sign language with a student. In the next four shots, she surfs, dances, skis, and scales a building.
Graphic: Haben Girma was born deaf-blind, meaning she has limited hearing and vision
But that hasn't stopped her from surfing, dancing, skiing, and even scaling a building
Video: Haben smiles
Graphic: Growing up, Haben attended mainstream public schools and quickly learned to adapt
Video: Haben sits on a couch, talking
Haben: When I was in school, I had a teacher who trained me how to travel as a blind person.
Video: A bus drives down the street
Haben: I remember one of the lessons; she intentionally had me miss my stop so that I could learn how to problem solve when things go wrong.
Video: Haben works with a young student
Graphic: But not all students are so lucky
Video: Haben sits on a couch, talking
Haben: Many students with disabilities don't have access to information when they're in school.
Video: Close-up of a hand reading Braille on a keyboard
Haben: We need to make sure the schools have access to accessible technology, have access to qualified teachers who can provide training.
Video: In the first shot, Haben uses her Braille keyboard. In the second shot, a hearing aid is placed in a woman’s ear.
Graphic: Thanks to assistive technology, deaf-blind individuals have various ways to communicate
Video: Haben sits on a couch, talking. We see sporadic shots of her using her Braille keyboard.
Haben: Deaf-blindness is a spectrum. There are people with limited vision and limited hearing, and we use a variety of different communication styles: sign language, print on palm. What I use primarily is a keyboard and digital Braille display — so people will type on a wireless keyboard, and I'll read in digital Braille.
Video: President Barack Obama communicates with Haben via keyboard, and they shake hands
Obama: Hi, Haben!
Haben: Hello. It’s good to meet you!
Video: Maxine, a German Shepherd, stands with Haben
Graphic: Haben also has her trusty guide dog, Maxine, by her side
Video: Haben stands outside in front of a leafy wall, talking
Haben: Her job is to navigate around obstacles.
Video: Maxine guides Haben around a trailer hitch, then walks with her down a street
Haben: I make the decisions, and she follows me.
Video: Image of Haben in a graduation gown speaking at a university, followed by an image of Haben paddleboarding across a body of water
Graphic: Early on, Haben quickly learned to be her own biggest advocate
Video: Haben sitting on a couch, talking
Haben: When I was young, I had to teach people what I need, and that process helped me build up self-advocacy skills.
Video: People gather food at a cafeteria
Haben: There was one incident when I was in college. The college cafeteria would provide menus only in print, and blind students couldn't access the menu.
Video: Haben speaks at a TED Talk event
Graphic: Haben asked the cafeteria manager to provide an accessible menu, but her request was brushed off
Video: Haben sits on a couch, talking, followed by a shot of Haben on a laptop in the park, researching
Haben: Later, I did research. I learned that I have a right to information, and I returned to the cafeteria manager and explained, "I'm actually not asking for favors. I'm asking you to comply with the Americans With Disabilities Act."
Video: Time-lapse shots of people walking through a crowded street, a busy city intersection, and traffic on the freeway
Graphic: The Americans With Disabilities Act, passed in 1990, prohibits discrimination based on disability in all areas of public life

Video: Haben sits on a couch, talking
Haben: It changed the whole culture in the cafeteria. They started providing menus in accessible formats. And that taught me that if I advocate for myself, I change the community.

Comprehensive Eye Exam: Healthbeat Brooklyn
Publicado em 10 de fev de 2012
If you only get your eyes checked by an optometrist when you need a new Rx for eyeglasses -- it?s just not enough! Every year, an ophthalmologist should give you a comprehensive eye exam, because some of the most common diseases show no symptoms until it may be too late. Host Monica Sweeney, MD, volunteers to show you how easy it is to ensure good eyesight. For more information about getting a comprehensive eye exam at Long Island College Hospital, visit www.downstate.edu/ophthalmology.

Deciblímetros - uma ferramento de apoio importante e com diversas versões
O decibelímetro, ou sonômetro ou medidor de nível de pressão sonora (MNPS), é um equipamento utilizado para realizar a medição dos níveis de pressão sonora, e, consequentemente, da intensidade, do som, já que o nível de pressão sonora é uma grandeza que representa razoavelmente bem a sensação auditiva de volume sonoro, quando ponderada.
Esse equipamento é normalmente calibrado para indicar o nível de som em decibéis, uma unidade logarítmica. O limite da audição humana é de aproximadamente 0 dB (equivalente a 20 μPa) para um ouvido humano normal e o limite antes da dor (sons extremamente altos) é de aproximadamente 120 dB, representando uma potência 1012 vezes maior que 0 dB.[1] Atualmente, no mercado brasileiro, existem equipamentos digitais capazes de realizar medições entre 30 dB e 130 dB.
Deve-se salientar que o termo "decibelímetro", embora utilizado correntemente no Brasil em alguns contextos mais leigos, é considerado inadequado e mesmo errado, se for aplicado em textos e outros documentos técnicos. Por exemplo, o site do INMETRO - Instituto Nacional de Metrologia, Qualidade e Tecnologia - não menciona o termo decibelímetro para o referido instrumento de medição, mas tão somente o medidor de nível de pressão sonora[2].

ASSOCIAÇÃO DAR A MÃO
Geane Poteriko
"A gente tem é que sonhar, senão as coisas não acontecem." (Oscar Niemeyer)
Junto com o sonho, a ação. A busca pelo ideal e pela concretização.
Obs: Muitos me julgavam IDEALIZADORA, apenas mais uma mãe sonhadora. Hoje, ao visualizar o futuro deste trabalho que está realizando tantos sonhos, de inúmeras crianças e famílias da Associação Dar a Mão, sinto uma grande felicidade. Como esta alegria compartilhada ao ver nosso projeto - desenvolvido com tanto amor - sendo exibido na Rede Globo, Jornal Paraná TV.
"Dar a Mão", não apenas para minha filha Dara, mas por todas as crianças, mães, pais e pessoas com Agenesia de Membros - antes tão desconhecidos no Brasil.
"A Agenesia pode ser rara. Mas não deve ser invisível"
