Body: From http://www.fredericknewspost.com/news/education/education_topics/learning/article_8b0e75b9-97b8-5188-b4d2-37b3b2defe60.html Startalk teaches science by way of language By Kelsi Loos June 24, 2013 The scene could have been just another day in Shanghai: Students ate their breakfast while watching a brightly colored Chinese cartoon. Chinese characters adorned the walls. A teacher gave a lesson on buoyancy in Chinese. But this wasn't China. This was the New Life Christian School in Frederick. Students in the Startalk program, hosted locally by the Asian American Center of Frederick, learned Chinese while taking lessons in science, technology, engineering and math. Startalk is a federally funded program started by the Department of Defense in 2006 to help get Americans speaking critical world languages such as Chinese, Arabic, Hindi and others.

Title: New Language Lobby: American Language Enterprise Advocacy
Body: From http://www.politico.com/politicoinfluence/0613/politicoinfluence10987.html Introducing the language lobby - Cowan launches new consulting firm - Trevor Thomas joins Giffords gun group By BYRON TAU & ANNA PALMER June 21, 2013 INTRODUCING THE LANGUAGE LOBBY: Two language industry groups have launched a new advocacy push with a lobbying component. The American Language Enterprise Advocacy is the brainchild of the Globalization and Localization Association and the National Council for Languages and International Studies. It’s not a separate new organization, the founders tell PI — just the advocacy face of the two groups, which together represent a broad coalition of educators, companies and other stakeholders. The new coalition will call for increased federal funding for language education, improvements in the immigration bill and federal language training appropriations, among other issues. "What we're doing is really trying to get a unified voice for language in Washington, D.C.," said Bill Rivers, the executive director of NCLIS who will actually lobby for ALEA. Hans Fenstermacher, CEO of GALA, said it’s also about modernizing the image of the industry. "People tend to think of the language industry as a bunch of monks sitting in a corner," Fenstermacher said. "We're trying to modernize the view of the whole enterprise."
