English Summer Town (EST) is a one week Total Immersion Program for English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers in Chile. From January 6 to January 11, 2008, 96 EFL teachers came from all over Chile, from Arica in the North to Punta Arenas in the South, to participate in EST 2008. It was held at the Centro de Perfeccionamiento e Investigación Pedagogía (CPEIP). During the week the teachers spoke English 100% of the time. They attended EFL training in the mornings and cultural events in the afternoons and evenings. The teachers networked, made new friends, shared their best practices, and learned from EFL / ELT experts such as Thomas Baker and the visiting Fulbright Scholars. Talks were given by past Fulbright Scholars and the highlight was the opportunity to meet the new Ambassador to Chile, Ambassador Paul Simons.

Elemental. The quintessential English fellow, explorer, scientist, exotic dancer and some might say raving lunatic.
Banned from 13 of the colonies for ‘unspeakable scientific experiments’, yet heralded as something of a deity in a great many more.

Moog teamed up with Elemental after he was lured into his laboratory under the promise of laudanum.

The laudanum never appeared.
This video however, did.

Vocals: Elemental
Produced by: Tom Caruana

Die deutsche Wirtschaft hält sich wacker im internationalen Geschäftsleben. Die Vorherrschaft der englischen Sprache wird dabei unwidersprochen akzeptiert und in Form von modernen, scheinbar populären Fachbegriffen in die eigene Sprache eingebaut. Damit auch wirklich klar ist, worüber gesprochen wird.

For more than a week, South Africa’s poor have unleashed their fury on migrants. At least 24 people have died in the attacks.

South African leaders are now trying to bring the situation under control.

Kalay Maistry, Al Jazeera’s correspondent in South Africa, says that police are out in force, but thousands of foreign workers who fled their homes in Johannesburg’s townships after gangs of youths began targeting them, say they are still too terrified to go back.
