peter only realizes that clint barton is hearing impaired when he sees clint and natasha rapid fire signing in the middle of battle after everybody’s hearing is shot by a bomb, so peter realizes he doesn’t actually know any asl and decides to learn, he posts an ad looking for someone to tutor him, wade wilson shows up and peter doesn’t connect the dots at first because he just hadn’t seen deadpool’s face before, it hits him in the middle of their tutoring session when wade makes a casual reference to his job
peter files that away to deal with later and finishes the lesson, against his better judgement he keeps going, because wade is actually a really good teacher and maybe peter doesn’t want to stop the lessons because at some point along the way he started looking forward to the days they met up, he likes talking to wade
peter starts hardcore flirting after getting over his initial shock at himself, he asks wade how to sign i love you, and peter signs back i love you too
wade brushes it off because they’re just practicing, and peter didn’t actually mean that, and this is the one thing that wade does that he doesn’t feel ashamed of and he doesn’t want to ruin that, specifically because he likes peter, he doesn’t want to ruin what they have
peter gets more and more desperate as wade doesn’t seem to be getting the message, he starts purposefully making mistakes when he’s signing so that normally innocent phrases become blatant innuendos, it’s fun watching wade squirm, but if he doesn’t catch on soon peter may just jump him

Tianqu Zhai, EECS PhD Student, participates in an experiment testing a laser designed to detect concussions in the Center for Human Growth and Development at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, MI on January 30, 2020.
The laser light runs through fiber optic cables attached to the forehead. The light collected by the probe enables researchers to look at tissue oxygen and cell metabolism at the same time. This could lead to a fast and noninvasive way for doctors to monitor the health of brain cells.
The collaboration on the project includes Mohammed Islam, EECS Professor; Rachel Russo, House Officer, Surgery at University of Michigan Hospitals; Ioulia Kovelman, Associate Professor of Psychology; and Steven Broglio, Professor of Kinesiology, School of Kinesiology.

Least, but certainly not last, the least sandpiper is the smallest shorebird in the world! Weighing in at a whopping one ounce, these petite peeps rely on mudflats, marshes and estuaries across the Americas to fuel up on their long migrations—up to 2,500 miles from their winter havens to their breeding grounds in the tundra of the far north!
