"Nothing is more fun than doing my job," says Russell Schuh. A professor at UCLA since 1975, Schuh gets paid for doing his hobbies: teaching linguistics and doing descriptive, comparative, and historical work on African languages. His specialty is the West Branch of the Chadic family of languages from northern Nigeria, including Hausa, the largest natively-spoken language in sub-Saharan Africa. After over 30 years of teaching classes and traveling back and forth between Africa and Los Angeles for his research, Schuh has no intention of giving up his hobby. Schuh first developed an interest in African languages through his work in the Peace Corps. After receiving his BA in French from the University of Oregon, finishing his MA from Northwestern in the same field, and attending UC Berkeley to do graduate work in Linguistics, Schuh spent two years working to increase adult literacy in the Niger Republic. There, he applied his work in linguistics to both the Hausa and Tamazhaq languages. In the mid-1970s, Schuh returned to Nigeria for two years to conduct research with the Center for Nigerian Languages. Schuh uses multimedia demonstrations of his own research data to teach his students. In his office, a small fleet of laptops rests among an eclectic array of books and woven baskets. "Language is about people talking...it grabs your attention so much more to see somebody actually saying things than to see it written down on a piece of paper in black and white," he says. In 1996, he helped create footage of semi-controlled every day exchanges in Nigeria that is used to teach beginning-level Hausa. In his linguistics classes, he uses video clips of speakers of a variety of languages, for example, speakers of related languages counting 1-10 to show how languages can be similar and different at the same time and speakers illustrating how languages differ in the ways they put sentences together.

There are many ways of looking at our world and this is one. Linguistics. This is a short video introducing some "highlights" in the coming year. These are excerpts from the notes of George Ure. Since early 2001 a former big software company fellow did a massive SQL databases and came up with the concept of short and long-term values to language use. As these language patterns drift around over time, there may be some useful information about the future. Visit www.urbansurvival.com and www.halfpasthuman.com

Linguists are frequently asked to help the police and courts when there is a dispute over the authorship of a written text -- suicide note, abusive or threatening letter, email or text message. In this excerpt from his inaugural lecture, Professor Coulthard explains the concepts he used to help identify the authorship of text messages in a recent murder trial.

They won the San Diego music award for best new hip-hop, but soon the group started breaking up and going their own ways. IQ was busy working on a mix CD with his company "Intelligence Records" that he founded with his cousin Jay War. Jay was a long time friend of Kasper and hit him up to see if he wanted to get involved with the Intelligence Records project, the mix CD featuring some of the best up-and-coming hip-hop artists around Southern California. Eventually Kasper and IQ we're creating many songs together and decided to put one together with Kasper's old friend Entity. At that studio session, they realized how strong they were as a group, and decided to make an album together. 3 different styles from 3 different places in Southern California. Entity from Texas originally bringin the southern style, Kasper growin up with east coast hip-hop and IQ growin up with west coast influence somehow combine to form the ultimate group with a unique sound that is sure to appeal to any true hip-hop fan. Add to that the amazing ground-breaking producers and you have something truly special to listen to and enjoy. It's all about the hip-hop. 1 luv

Watching too much TV for class. It's the latest thing. This video is a small collection of clips from several different television shows: Futurama, Doctor Who (2005), Torchwood, Firefly, and Secret Diary of a Call Girl. The collected clips demonstrate (a) linguistic trends in science-fiction (b) the semantic power of words and (c) the fun to be had with words.

In brief: -language is a reflection of thought but you must also understand that the language you use inside your mind directs your thoughts and mental focus If you change the way you think, you change the way you feel, if you change the way you feel you change the way you act, if you change your actions you change your results! -The ineffective use of linguistics at an internal dialogue level can massively inhibit your performance under pressure and can actually increase your fear. -Using Neuro Linguistics effectively will affect your actual external skill level DIRECTLY. for full article click here http://www.streetfightsecrets.com/34.html = = = Richard Grannon 2008

And the intro to the song is a bit of a tribute to all AMV editors who love that undergound sound...Plus it was already the intro to the song. This video was quickly made by me just as an excuse to show off this GLORIOUS beat to any who are unfamiliar, though I did try my best to do it some justice. I like how the vid turned out...a bit slower than my others but please adjust...Thanks... Song during credits is Lauryn Hill's "Lost Ones." ----------

James H. Fetzer, prof. of philosophy (U.of Minnesota, Duluth, ret.), critiques Noam Chomsky's linguistics and Chomsky's noted acceptance of the official 9/11 story, the basis for the 'war on terrorism'. Jim Fetzer is the author of The Evolution of Intelligence which challenges Chomsky and Jerry Fodor "and the thesis that learning a language requires a language learning module..." Our view is that while language is a crucial step toward 'consciousness', it is not consciousness, it does not imply consciousness. For a more metaphorically exacting description of consciousness, see Julian Jaynes Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind. Jaynes posits a pre-conscious (bicameral) era - a highly civilized era, in a sense - that gave way to our 'conscious' era, an era and a phenomenon carefully defined by the Princeton psychologist.
