Just take a look at the picture: http://deafdigest.com/joke-of-handicapped parking/   -- deaf soldier in an important war The American Revoutionary War (1775-83) was for the fight for Americans' independence from Great Britain. Did we have deaf soldiers that fought in that war? Don't know if we have many deaf soldiers, but there was one - as claimed by a deaf person that said " My great great great deaf grandfather fought in the American Revolutionary War".   -- good settlement or bad settlement For nearly three months employees at the Canadian Hearing Society went on strike, asking for better wages and better benefits. These workers voted to accept the settlement on Friday. Settlement? 0.8 per cent increase first year, same with second year; one percent in third year; 1.25 perent in fourth and fifth years. Let us look at the federal government; Obama, before he left White House, approved a 2.1 percent pay increase for federal employees. So, was it a good deal or a bad deal in Canada?     Latest deaf jobs http://deafdigest.com/category/jobs/ Barry's collections of past articles (with today's update) -- few questions CDI terps hate http://deafdigest.com/collections/barrys-collections/ 5/14/17 Blue and Gold editions at: http://deafdigest.com/newsletters/
