A STOCKTON chef is sharing his expertise in a new TV show helping people who are Deaf improve their cooking skills. Dad-of-one Scott Garthwaite, who is Deaf, will present Punk Chef, starting on Film4 next month.
The former Beverley School pupil said: “What the Deaf community are very passionate about are programmes that feature Deaf people.
“They also appreciate programmes that include sign language and will hopefully see someone like myself as a role model.”
Hartlepool-born Scott, who lives in Stockton with fiancee Jessica and their son Rocco, four months, qualified as a chef in 2011 after study professional culinary art and patisserie at Newcastle College in partnership with Leeds Metropolis University.
He was asked to front the TV show after starting up cookery blogs spotted by London-based Deaf-run production company Remark!
“They see me as the perfect person to front Punk Chef due to my unique character - I have a pink and black Mohawk which I have had for years,” he said.
The 32-year-old proved a big hit with executives at sign language broadcasting organisation BSLBT when the programme was trialled on Sky and Virgin Media last year. He has since been working on the new series. ... Read more: http://www.gazettelive.co.uk/news/teesside-news/2013/02/20/deaf-stockton-chef-to-present-new-tv-show-punk-chef-84229-32844031/

Deaf Tattoo Convention Berlin, Germany
VIDEO [CC/SIGNED] - Deaf Tattoo Convention in Berlin, Germany in International Sign.
The first International Deaf Tattoo Convention of the world was held in Berlin. Twelve tattoo artists from many countries took part. More than 900 visitors came to Berlin-Weißensee.
It was great to attend the convention. We have learned a lot and made new experiences. For example, it is not "deaf and dumb", but "Deaf". The Moderation we have completely turned at the beginning and forgot to repeat it again. But that experience at least even more viewers, as it is correct. Thanks also to the organizers, it was cool with you!
Of the convention reported Tattoo Model Mel Riot. The 2nd Deaf Tattoo Convention will be held in September 2014 in Paris.
Deaf Tattoo Convention Berlin 2013.
Zur weltweit 1. Deaf Tattoo Convention trafen sich vom 18. bis 20.Januar 2013 zwölf internationale gehörlose Tätowierer in Berlin-Weißensee. Von der Convention berichtet Tattoomodel Mel Riot.
Es war toll, die Convention zu besuchen. Wir haben einiges gelernt und neue Erfahrungen gemacht. Zum Beispiel, das es nicht "Taubstumm", sondern "Gehörlos" heißt. Die Anmoderation haben wir ganz am Anfang gedreht und leider vergessen, es noch einmal zu wiederholen. Aber so erfahren wenigstens noch mehr Zuschauer, wie es richtig heißt. Danke auch an die Veranstalter, es war cool bei Euch!
Die 2. Deaf Tattoo Convention wird übrigens im September 2014 in Paris stattfinden.

Deaf Russians Overjoys Sign Language Recognised
VIDEO: International Sign - The Russia Federation granted Sign Language recognised in Russia.
Deaf people in Russia received a late, but very precious Christmas present when Russian Sign Language was formally recognised by the Russian government on the 30th December.
The President of Russia, Vladimir Putin, who was re-elected last year, formally signed the long-awaited law that will improve the rights of sign language users.
The breakthrough came after years of campaigning by the All-Russian Society of the Deaf, including their President Valery Rukhledev. The development led to a very special new year's celebration for Deaf people in the country.
The good news from Russia comes nearly ten years after British Sign Language was recognised by the government in this country - in March 2003.

She Is Deaf, But A Little d ?
VIDEO: [BSL/CC] - She is Deaf, but a little d?
Basically in a Deaf community you are either a little d or a big D. People would say, She is a little d as she can talk and she is in the hearing community and she have cochlear implants but she still have big D traits? like having a lot of Deaf friends and she can sign. So what does that make her then?
She is a big D - DEAF!
