Question by Addy: Can someone give me an idea of what the “sign language” between the pitcher and the catcher could mean?
I know it may not mean the same to everyone, but I’m curious as to what in the world could they be saying to each other.

Best answer:

Answer by J G
They are giving pitch signals.

“Throw a fast ball.”
“Throw low and outside.”

etc..

The catcher can give an idea of how a batter may react to certain pitches and tells the pitcher.

Question by John: Why do handicapped people think they could always do everything a regular person could do?
Can’t they just accept the fact that some things are impossible!! First the special olympics is obviously a joke, second i keep hearing about all these blind people and stuff climbing mount everest, and all these handicapped people that keep trying to accomplish ridiculaous tasks that nobody really cares about! It like “oh cool your bling and you could skydive well whoopdeedoo! You could still do it better if you wern’t handicapped or in a wheelchair.” What are they trying to prove?

Question by HONEY: Could her 7 month old have problems? Is it too early to tell?
He is 7 months old, and for as long as i can remember hes ALWAYS a happy child, he smiles at EVERYONE, hes always making noises, yelling, and gets happy just by looking at him. I feel like this is a little abnormal for him to always be so happy. His mom says when he doesnt get attention he fusses and yells, and then right when she looks at him hes happy again and laughing. Hes so figity all the time and seems to be a handful.
Could this be early signs of something?
When she first foudn out she was pregnant the Drs scared her with “the baby may have down syndrome” But then the 2nd test they did, they said No he doesnt hes fine.

Can you tell this early if the baby could have downs, or something else?
also, the daycare lady at the gym that she brings him to a few times a week said he reminds her of her son when he was an infant.. and her son has special needs. She didnt get into it because she was so taken back by it and pissed.
First of all Emme in not going to look for problems when there isnt any. This women watches him all the time and if he reminds her of her son when he was a baby, then how do you guys know?? Yes theres nothing wrong with a happy baby. I KNOW THIS. How could all of you guys sit here and say theres nothing wrong. Many children with special needs or disorders are overly happy all the time.

Question by Johnny D: My psycholegest says I’m “autism spectrum”, but this diagnosis makes no sense. could she be wrong?
she said i have “high function autism” Or “Asperger’s Syndrome”, and told me people with this disease call themselves “Aspies” and have trouble making freinds. The thing is, I don’t have trouble making friends. I have many close freinds right now at college, all of whom like me and think i’m very normal. i can be shy at times, and sometimes think people are more critical of me than they really are, and she said this is what “sealed the deal” for her. she says that all people who in the past were described as “shy” actually had Autism Spectrum, they just didnt know it.

Also, I have a girlfriend, and I’m actually relaly witty and good at talking to girls, once i get over the initial shyness (i mean isn’t everyone shy when talkng to girls??) i’m described as funny, have a good sense of humor, engaging, and i have a variety of interests (playing sports, following politics, history, reading, hanging out with friends, going to the clubs sometimes), which from what Im reading are not typical of Asperger’s syndrome. But she wont back down from the diagnosis, she says, and I quote, “I’m the psychologest, you’re not, so shut up. I majored in psycholegy in college, don’t you tell me about my own field.”

She said i struck her as a “nerd” which in her mind means “Aspergers Syndrome” or whatnot. Im not even sure why she sees me as a nerd, i mean i can be shy but im def.not socially inept.

also, fwiw i looked up the AUTISM QUOTIENT test and i took it, I got a score of 18, which apparantly means im not autistic. but she says she knows better than some test and she accused me of lying on it.
no lila she actually gave me both diagnosis, she said “Aspies” “like me” are often bipolar. i dont even know why i see her she is some 23 year old with a BA, is that even enough to be a shrink?

Question by StandW2Fists: I am working with someone, I could use advice: A friend?
of mine hide an “inner child” inside quite a while ago. I need advice on getting someone to “open up” emotionally.

As a child, this friend (an emotional type) was disciplined – in what I would consider harsh ways. The “old school” of thought is that “smacking” and a form of fear would lead to “respect”. This is the situation I am dealing with a friend, as an adult now.

My concern is that when a parent uses fear as a form of respect, sometimes the “fear” forms a type of dependance on the disciplinarian – but this would not be a true form of respect. It would be a reliance for approval.

In utilizing “fear” as a form of discipline … you take a chance on developing a dependancy or pushing someone away.

In the situation I am dealing with, it has created a bond between the parents and child, but it gets weird now. The nuturing parent created opposition in hiding favors for the child that the discplinarian was not privy to. This created a triangle affect. It created a type of “hidden inner child syndrome” combined with “prodical son attitude”. This situation caused an addictive personality to become reliant on other things rather than dealing with emotional issues.

What attempt could I use to break these walls down and find the “inner child”. Deal with the underlying emotional issues in a way that would be caring, kind and compassionate, without blame or putting anyone down?

What? You may well ask what this is all about! Over the last decade or so, the shift from face to face contact to phone based services has increasingly isolated an already marginalized group of society. You may not realise it, but according to the Royal National Institute for Deaf People (RNID) there are 8.7M people in the UK who are deaf or hearing impaired.

Hard of hearing and deaf people use special devices called text phones (also called minicoms) that allow a two-way live text dialogue. Nearly all call centres are NOT equipped to receive and manage text phone calls. Bearing in mind that the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA 1995) makes it a legal requirement for all product and service providers to make reasonable adjustments to become accessible, this is a precarious position to be in. With the UK closely following the US in increased litigation (and ever larger compensation awards), especially in the discrimination area, it make

Question by HT: Sore, swollen spot on hard palate right behind front teeth – what could it be?
Hi!

I have a single spot right behind my right upper front tooth that swells up regularly. It’s basically one of the rugae at the front of my hard palate. (The rugae, as far as I know, are the ridges behind the upper front teeth that cover the hard palate).

It keeps swelling up, and sometimes it gets pretty sore. It usually stays that way for 3-7 days, goes away for about a week, and then comes back again. Normally, I cannot feel or detect the rugae with my tongue, but when this one is swollen, I can definitely feel it. My girlfriend also seems to recognize if it is swollen or not. Personally, I cannot see it (with a mirror) but can definitely feel it.

This has been going on for about 6 months now.

I first thought it was gingivitis caused by plaque, but I then went to a dental hygienist and got my teeth cleaned professionally – which I initially thought had fixed it, but it came back about a week or two later.

The strange thing is that I can brush the spot with a toothbrush or touch it with my finger, and it doesn’t seem that sensitive at all, but I constantly feel it even when I try not to concentrate on it. Eating or cold drinks make it feel better for a very short period. Smoking, as you can imagine, aggravates it, which is why I have cut down considerably. Drinking warm (not hot) tea also aggravates it sometimes. I drink alcohol extremely rarely.

I’ve tried so many different things, and I’m starting to feel really frustrated by it. I also bought a protective mouth gel that seemed to help at the start, but it’s not so effective any more.

A few weeks ago, I went to the dentist, who couldn’t find anything unusual, even said my gums looked very healthy. She thought I could have “burning mouth syndrome” and prescribed me vitamin B supplements. I’ve been taken those now for about 3 weeks.

My “symptom” has come back once since then, and it was actually fairly painful. Usually, it’s not really that painful, just extremely annoying, and the fact that it’s been going for so long now is really starting to get me down. It stayed for about 4 days and went again, but now it’s back. At the moment, it’s irritated and swollen, but not sore (yet).

I have another dentist appointment soon. Not sure how that’s going to go, but in the meantime, any advice, tips or suggestions would be much appreciated.

I know this is a long one, so, thanks for reading!
