A very happy 70th birthday to Adam Ant, born as Stuart Goddard in Marylebone, London on this day in 1954. It's easy to lay down and hide, where's the warrior without his pride?

Got word from the conveners that this #ASL #1ntSL virtual conference will remain available as a recording for the next while. You can still grab a registration and view the recording to top off your CEUs for this year.

Thanks @AdamCSchembri and @DrRosamundOates for publishing historical work in the most recent Newsli from ASLI! Discussed it this morning at virtual #BSL tutoring with @PeterBr92242281 and @LinZ_PhD🙌

Finally learned one of my research gifts is to work in a domain I don't know as well as my own, and discover/solve things that the presumed knowers were too confident to look up

Can any colleagues at @HOGGroup or @Geology_History or @RUGeoMuseum point me toward a source that could help me identify the contents of this Cargille mineral specimen kit? From the estate of a 92 y/o geologist who recently passed away. All boxes numbered 1-55 are here + extras

Sorry Sutton and von der Leith, transposing dance notation onto signed language was posed by Prof. Daniel Jones of @ucl in the 1930s, inspired by Margaret Morris' "Danscript" (The Notation of Movement, 1928) 1/2

Jones was the vowel-obsessed Phoneticist who coined "RP," and looked further back to folk dance notation of Cecil Sharp to transcribe "the natural sign language, which is not formally taught," and develop an international gestural system 2/2 (did we know this, @AdamCSchembri ?)

PhDs who have exited academia: any regrets? Inquiring minds (of PhDs still in academe) want to know.

“Irislan”! For the attention of John Bosco Conama and others who are interested in history of Irish Sign Language. From Nicholas Griffey’s 1994 book “From Silence to Speech”, page 24.

Every morning after I've had a programme on @BBCTwo my inbox gets delightfully full of messages from men who didn't like my lipstick. It makes me feel like it's 1922 and I'm being castigated by Captain Hastings for being 'fast'.
