 | Walking the Chasmosaur - Un bout de chemin avec un Chasmosaure Looking at the fossilized bones of an animal that lived 65 million years ago, one of the Canadian Museum of Nature's palaeontologists Rob Holmes knew that it belonged to a 'new' species of dinosaur, which he named Chasmosaurus irvinensis. What the bones could not tell him, however, is how the dinosaur stood and walked, and what's that enormous frill all about? Dès qu'il a porté les yeux sur les os fossilisés d'un animal ayant vécu il y a 65 millions d'années, Rob Holmes, un des paléontologues du Musée canadien de la nature, savait qu'il s'agissait d'une « nouvelle » espèce de dinosaure; il lui a donné le nom de Chasmosaurus irvinensis. Par contre les os ne lui ont pas révélé de quelle façon le dinosaure se tenait debout et comment il marchait, ni pourquoi il avait une énorme collerette. |

 | 2008 Fedcap Words About Work! Honorable Mention G. Brown Gwendolyn Brown has been an employee in Fedcap's Office Services division since October of 2007. After completing treatment for alcohol and drug abuse, she graduated from Fedcap Career Design School's Office Skills training program last year. Ms. Brown works on several Office Services contracts and is excited about an unexpected job benefit. She works with a number of deaf co-workers and is in the process of learning sign language to better communicate. In addition to writing about her past struggles, she now mentors young women who are battling addiction. "I now enjoy living life on life's terms," she says, and continues, "I look in the mirror now and tell myself I am somebody." Ms. Brown has plans to return to school and become a licensed counselor and work with young adults. This is Ms. Brown's first submission to the Words about Work! contest. Work makes a difference in all of our lives. It provides independence, dignity, income, a sense of self-worth and accomplishment, a purpose. And it should never be taken for granted. Words about Work!® is an annual poetry competition for Fedcap participants, employees, and their children that offers inspiring thoughts on the question: "What does work mean to you and your family?" Now in its eighth year, Words about Work!® is an inspiring vehicle for the public to learn about Fedcap. Our mission -- to be a premier organization that empowers people with barriers to employment to move towards economic independence as valued members of the workforce -- comes alive through the voices of people who are employed by and receive services from us. Words about Work!® is also a fundraiser for Fedcap and makes possible some of the essential support programs that many of our participants depend upon to succeed in the workplace. |

 | How well can you fingerspell? Hello all... My dog Frankie wanted to show u his toy and he was signing toy too... I wanted to talk about fingerspelling. I wonder how fast can we finger spell? I also show u my left hand, the thumb on that hand do not bend at all, cuz I don't have the muscles to help it bend, I was born with it. So my left hand make it harder to sign sometimes and it had hard time fingerspell. It cannot sign 6 or w. I displayed how my left hand does with spelling by doing ABC's then I show how fast I can finger spell with my right hand. I am average but do pretty good. I always wonder who is the fastest finger speller? Thanks for watching my vlog... |
 | Re: My first sign language video! The following is a translation/transcript of my ASL video response. Hi, Ashley. Thanks for leaving a comment on my video, "ASL Introduction"! Your signing is good and you fingerspell well. If you don't know a sign, it's perfectly fine to fingerspell. You fingerspell clearly, and good for you! -- I mean, it's a good thing that you fingerspell instead of trying to invent signs. If I may make only one small criticism... when you signed "to" (when you signed "I want TO become"... or maybe you fingerspelled B-E-C-O-M-E), understand that the "to" is part of the verb "to become." The sign "TO" means going "to" something (directionally). Do you understand what I mean? It's not part of the infinitive verb form as in "to be," "to go," or "to do." *I might not have made this clear in my ASL video, but it's best to fingerspell "to" in the infinitive verb form, or do away with it altogether, as it's not necessary in ASL.* Anyway, you're doing great, and keep up the good work! I agree with "msgfromandrew" the deaf guy who goes to Rochester (*EDIT: Oops, I signed Riverside, sorry!*), who suggested that the best way to learn ASL is to socialize with deaf people. Thanks for the comment and good luck! |
