Title: New Book: The Five-Minute Linguist
Body: From http://www.equinoxpub.com/books/showbook.asp?bkid=210 The Five-Minute Linguist: Bite-sized Essays on Language and Languages, edited by E. M. Rickerson and Barry Hilton. This collection takes a new approach to making accurate and up-to-date knowledge about language accessible in a non-academic way. It consists of 60 short chapters adapted from the weekly scripts of a National Public Radio series on language in celebration of the Year of Languages. The scripts, contributed by a cross-section of leading professional linguists in America and abroad, address questions like “How many languages are there in the world?” “Is elementary school too early to teach foreign languages?” and “How good is machine translation?” They are written with a light touch that has been highly successful in reaching an audience of intelligent non-specialists. The book preserves that light touch while adding such features as an index (to help readers connect topics touched on in more than one chapter) and suggestions for follow-up reading.

Title: Funding Opportunity: Intensive Summer Language Institutes
Body: From http://exchanges.state.gov/education/rfgps/jan5rfgp.htm Application Deadline: January 5, 2007 The Office of Academic Exchange Programs of the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs announces an open competition for projects to provide foreign language instruction overseas for American undergraduate and graduate students in the summer of 2007 in support of the National Security Language Initiative (NSLI). Public and private nonprofit organizations, or consortia of such organizations meeting the provisions described in Internal Revenue Code section 26 USC 501(c)(3), may submit proposals to implement six- to ten-week summer institutes overseas for a minimum total of 365 participants in countries where Arabic, Chinese, Korean, Russian and the Indic, Persian, and Turkic language families are widely spoken. These summer institutes should offer U.S. undergraduate and graduate students structured classroom instruction and less formal interactive learning opportunities through a comprehensive exchange experience that primarily emphasizes language learning. Proposals from applicant organizations should clearly indicate the building of new, additional institutional language-teaching capacity overseas for these summer institutes-this program is designed to develop additional language study opportunities for U.S. students.
