American Sign Language Flash Video Dictionary is a high quality, free dictionary with a huge number of signs. It includes specialized dictionaries of religious signs, conversational phrases, and ASL for babies. Unfortunately it's not possible to link to specific signs, but if you look inside you'll find words from "Abbreviate" to "Zoom" and phrases such as "I cannot fasten my belt," "has he been neutered?" "I already took a bath," "are you married?" and "I need a better firewall."

Gallaudet University in Washington, D.C. is a liberal arts college and graduate school for the deaf (there's also a
high school and primary school).
In 1988, Gallaudet students protested when a hearing person was chosen as university president, and until today,
I. King Jordan has served. Recently, a new president was chosen--
Dr. Jane K. Fernandes, the school's Provost, who was born deaf but grew up speaking thanks to new therapies and technologies. A varied, vibrant student body never afraid to make their "voices" heard
has spoken (with photos). Last night,
so did a majority of the faculty, but Dr. Fernandes says she will stay.
