Title: Germany Announces 2013 Youth Words of the Year
Body: From http://www.germany.info/Vertretung/usa/en/__pr/GIC/2013/12/03-YouthWords.html The German initiative Jugendwort des Jahres ("young person’s word of the year") has declared the winning word for 2013 to be Babo ("boss" or "leader"), above fame ("great, super, popular") and gediegen (literally, "dignified," but here, "great/cool"). In places four and five came In your face (that’s straight up) and Hakuna matata (no problem, no worries). Since 2008, young people in Germany have been invited each year to submit and discuss their favorite words on http://www.jugendwort.de . The voting starts mid-year and involves the top 30 words. The most popular go through to the next round and are submitted at the beginning of November to a jury made up of a range of language specialists. The jury chooses the winner from the top 15, as well as the words that place second to fifth. Visit the Jugenwort website at http://www.jugendwort.de

Title: Digital Pompeii Project
Body: From http://pompeii.uark.edu The Digital Pompeii Project is a joint venture of the Classical Studies Program, the Humanities Program, and the Center for Advanced Spatial Technology at the University of Arkansas. Its goal is the creation of a comprehensive database for visual art and material culture at Pompeii; the database will be linked with 3D models of the city that can be explored in real time. Currently, the project is focused on modeling the houses found in the Hauser in Pompeji series, as well as the Villa Arianna at Castellammare di Stabia, in conjunction with the Restoring Ancient Stabia foundation. Learn more about the project and explore the models at http://pompeii.uark.edu
