(Jonathan Mosen as you no doubt know was on the NCBI podcast a couple times recently so here is some important information regarding his Eyes on Success site podcasts.
I'll only forward items occasionally of particular interest to here.)** Please read the important announcement below this week's show notice about changes we've had to make to the podcasts ** 1429 Considerations for Blind People Losing their Hearing (Jul. 16, 2014) <http://www.eyesonsuccess.net/eos_1429_podcast.mp3> Show Notes <http://www.eyesonsuccess.net/show_notes_1429.htm> Adaptive equipment is available to help people with vision or hearing loss. However, there are special considerations for people with both since they cannot rely on their sight to compensate for loss of hearing or vice versa. Hosts Peter and Nancy Torpey talk with Jonathan Mosen about special issues he has faced as a life-long blind person who is losing his hearing. *** IMPORTANT UPDATE *** Hopefully people on this list have seen this already, but we want to make sure everyone knows that we've had to change our podcast feed. This was due to some sudden and unexpected changes made by our hosting service. As a result, we will soon not be able to distribute the podcast via the original subscription URL that we first set up when the show was still called ViewPoints. Thankfully many subscribers were subscribed with the new URL we've been using for at least the past year, and their subscriptions should not be affected. In a few weeks, only the new feed URL will be active. If your podcatcher stops updating with new episodes or you are unable to receive any episodes, then you are likely subscribed using the old subscription URL. If this is the case you will need to: 1. Manually enter the following text into your podcatcher for the subscription URL: www.EyesOnSuccess.net/eos_podcast 2. Alternately, if you are using an iOS device or subscribing with iTunes, you will have to delete the Eyes On Success podcast and re-subscribe to Eyes On Success. Note: We have not made this change with Apple itunes yet - Apple itunes is still directing our podcast request to the old URL. We will have Apple make this change within the next month and notify you when it happens. 3. NOTE: Within the next month or two, the only subscription URL that will be valid is the one above, i.e.: www.EyesOnSuccess.net/eos_podcast During the transition, both subscription URLs will be valid, but eventually, the old subscription URL will be dropped. We apologize for any inconvenience, but these circumstances were out of our control. If you experience any problems while these changes are happening, send a note to us at: hosts@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Also, please pass along this message to any other people you think might be affected by the change and would like to continue receiving episodes of eyes On Success via podcast. As usual, people can also still search for and download and listen to episodes from our web site and our archives. These remain unaffected by the change. Thanks for your understanding. The Hosts: Pete and Nancy Torpey -- Subscribe to the podcast by pasting the following URL into your podcatching program: www.EyesOnSuccess.net/EOS_podcast
