DeafDigest Mid-Week edition - January 2, 2018   -- possibly a magic device for the deaf A high tech company has come up with a device, connected to the iPhone. The device (called a microphone) would listen for doorbells, kitchen timers, fire alarms, door knocks, etc and then transmit the sounds to the iPhone. A picture is at: http://deafdigest.com/deaf-magic-device/   -- strange response from a fake-deaf actress A hearing actress, who once played a fake-deaf role, said: Once I played a deaf character, so the only means of expression I had were my eyes   This is strange, because deaf people use their hands for signing and for geaturing, and sometimes use body language, and often make facial expressions!   -- deaf possibly making the World Guinness Book A deaf woman may possibly make the World Guinness Book but it is a joke, not an accomplishment. Chiedza Hukuimwe, a Miss Deaf Zimbabwe winner, was given the first place cash prize of just $8.50. It would be the record for the lowest grand prize in history of pageants!   Latest deaf jobs - today's update http://deafdigest.com/category/jobs/ Barry's collections of past articles (with today's update) -- role of interpreter in court cases http://deafdigest.com/collections/barrys-collections/ 12/31/17 Blue and Gold editions at: http://deafdigest.com/newsletters/
