DeafDigest - 19 February 2021

DeafDigest Mid-Week edition - February 19, 2021 -- one-time pointing or 1,000-times pointing means nothing A deaf man was in an automobile accident. The police came over. He pointed to his own card which said: I Am Deaf or Hard of Hearing He pointed at it many times. And the more he pointed, the more he was ignored by the police. He was never provided with an interpreter or with some communication aids. For that reason, a lawsuit against the police in Michigan has been filed just recently.   -- Coda's biggest fear A Coda said that her deaf father operated a business that partly depended on her interpreting with hearing customers and her handling of these voice telephone calls. When she grew up, she became more interested in other, and different things. For that reason, she has carried this guilt (depriving her father of providing for the family).   -- finally after many years Finally after many years of begging and pleading. Deaf people hate it very much when captions on TV would block football scores or something like that. Deaf people have complained and was told there was nothing that could be done with it. Now, Samsung is saying that their 4K and 8K QLED TVs can be adjusted to move captions away from these "football scores." Will it? We need to wait until their March 2nd showcase event.   Deaf jobs - latest update http://deafdigest.com/category/jobs/ 02/14/21 Blue and Gold editions & sub options at: http://deafdigest.com/newsletters/
