DeafDigest Mid-Week edition - October 9, 2018 -- a cop in Ohio understood the weapon gesture A deaf man came to a cop that was patrolling the Youngstown, Ohio downtown and used a gesture to indicate a gun. The cop caught the gesture and followed the deaf man to a nearby store where a robbery was in progress. The robbers were arrested. It took place in the 1950's. If this same gesture was used nowadays, would the panicky police officers draw their weapons on the innocent deaf man who was trying to say something?   -- a deaf movie with a terrible plot A new South Korean movie is titled Bo-ri. It revolved around a hearing girl, the only hearing member of an all-deaf family. She feels rejected by the family because she is not deaf like her family members. She does everything to make herself deaf - listening to loud music and diving into deep sea. Rescued she was sent to a hospital. She wakes up as a deaf girl. The critics have said it was a bad movie with a bad plot.   -- helping the deaf hear the light, not hear the sound Does light create noise? Well, a group of German scientists is trying to come up with a special device that would help the deaf to hear the light. Not exactly sure how it works, but these scientists say it works.       Deaf jobs - latest update http://deafdigest.com/category/jobs/ 10/07/18 Blue and Gold editions & sub options at: http://deafdigest.com/newsletters/
