DeafDigest - 21 March 2014

DeafDigest Mid-Week edition, March 21, 2014 -- another Heather Whitestone? As we all know, Heather Whitestone won the Miss America 1995 honors. What about others? Shayla Selma Sabbagh, who is deaf, won this year's Miss Universe Canada pageant. She will represent Canada at the upcoming Miss Universe 2014 that will take place in Brazil soon.   -- Apple interpreters DeafDigest learned that Apple stores on the East coast have contracted with a VRI service to serve walk-in deaf customers. So, if you have problems or want to buy these Macs, iPads, iPhones, Apple TV or any accessories, this may be a good time. Problem is those on the West Coast may be out of luck!     -- Talking by deaf babies Do deaf babies talk, even if their parents are deaf and cannot hear them talk and that babies cannot hear voices? Yes, according to Dr. Julie Rosa, HCH Family Practice Clinic, Hiawatha, Kansas. She said that all babies babble regardless if they are deaf or hearing! Well, it takes years for deaf babies to develop perfect speech!   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/deafdigest1 Twitter: @deafdigest 03/16/14 Blue edition at: http://deafdigest.com/category/newsletter/newsletter-blue-newsletter/ 03/16/14 Gold edition at: http://deafdigest.com/category/newsletter/newsletter-gold-newsletter/
