DeafDigest - 25 April 2014

DeafDigest Mid-Week edition, April 25, 2014     -- the puppy and the interpreter Secretary of State John Kerry brought his puppy to an event at the Department of State. The puppy was on the stage while Kerry was giving a speech. Suddenly the puppy jumped at the interpreter! To her credit, the intepreter smiled and patted the puppy away from her. Already there are jokes about the puppy planning to jump on Russia's Putin!   -- finally, a deaf cookbook We have deaf chefs. We have deaf-owned restaurants. We have had a deaf chef on a TV show. And now we have a deaf cookbook! Kalavathy Venugopal, a deaf woman of India, wrote a cookbook. It is titled "Dinasari Saiva Samayal" which means Everyday Vegetarian Cooking. What is next for us? A deaf person with his own cooking show on the Food Network! In case you are curious about these deaf-owned restaurants, the list is at: http://deafdigest.com/list-of-deaf-owned-restaurants/       -- a two second awareness of a TV network Few days ago on TV, during a commercial, there was a very short presentation, asking all of us to watch programs on one TV network. It was a woman that fingerspelled A-B-C on behalf of the ABC TV network. In case viewers do not follow fingerspelling, the ABC logo was shown on the backdrop behind the woman. The fingerspelling was so short that if you blinked or turned your head away for one second you would miss it!   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/deafdigest1 Twitter: @deafdigest 04/20/14 Blue edition at: http://deafdigest.com/category/newsletter/newsletter-blue-newsletter/ 04/20/14 Gold edition at: http://deafdigest.com/category/newsletter/newsletter-gold-newsletter/
