Hotel Hassler, located in the best part of
Rome, Italy. It is considered one of the
best hotels in the world. The 9/11 tragedy
affected his hotel business in 2001, but
he survived and the hotel thrived. And
now this, Covid-19, forcing his hotel
to close up. It is being reopened but

Gallaudet and NTID.
-- hearing instructors that teach ASL
There is a debate on who should teach ASL,
hearing instructors or deaf instructors?
The important thing is - is the teacher
a good one? There are great ASL teachers
that are hearing; there are also great
ASL teachers that are deaf.
-- healthcare advertising company partners with the deaf
A deaf owned software company in New York
has partnered up with FCB Health Network
Company. This company specializes in healthcare
advertising. Will this help lead to the hiring
