-- best Perogies in metro Pittsburgh area Perogies, popular in Poland, is also popular in many parts of USA. It is dumplings, often filled with potatoes, but some are with sauerkraut, sweet potatoes, cheese, etc. Deaf Perogies? Yes, Gosia's Pierogies located in Latrobe, PA, is deaf-owned and most of kitchen people are deaf. Deaf husband-wife team of Terry and Jan Smith-Rawecki, own and operate this business. Their ingredients? Sorry, it is a family secret, they said!   -- big thumbs down from the deaf community Hearing artist designed a mural that shows ASL in downtown Idaho Falls, Idaho. The Deaf Commuity unanimously thumbed it down, saying the hearing artist knew nothing about finger spelling and drew up the signs that were wrongly shown. Big question - why was a hearing artist, knowing ZERO about deaf, given this assignment. There are many, many talented deaf artists that can easily do the job!   -- national deaf association operating a deaf school Could National Association of the Deaf (NAD) operate a deaf school? No, because NAD's job is advocacy, and while Deaf Education can be advocated, operating the school is a different matter. Anyway one national association operated a deaf school - the Singapore Association for the Deaf operated the Singapore School For The Deaf for a number of years. Unfortunately, it closed up due to declining enrollment.     Deaf jobs - latest update http://deafdigest.com/category/jobs/ 10/21/18 Blue and Gold editions & sub options at: http://deafdigest.com/newsletters/
