Conference theme and Framework
Interest in Turkish Studies has increased significantly over the last several decades. A field which was mainly dominated by studies in Ottoman history is now increasingly represented by most of the major disciplines in the social sciences and humanities: Political Science, International Relations, Anthropology, Literature, Cultural Studies, and Archeology. In October 2002, a number of established scholars whose research focused on different academic disciplines related to Turkey convened a one-day conference at Georgetown University, the proceedings of which appeared in the form of a book titled Turkish Studies in the United States. The focus of the conference, and ultimately the book was to answer several important questions:
"What have been the main trends in Turkish Studies during the past two decades? What particular and substantive issues have scholars working in various disciplines addressed? Have the books and articles published in recent years on the Ottoman Empire and contemporary Turkey made a significant contribution to the mainstream scholarly literature?" and finally "What are the likely areas of new research and conceptual development in the near future?" (Quataert & Sayari 2003)
A full decade after the publication of this volume, the Institute of Turkish Studies at Georgetown University (ITS), and the Institute for Turkish Studies at Stockholm University (SUITS) have decided to come together and take this debate two steps further. The Quataert & Sayari volume surveyed the state of the field and the different chapters assessed the contributions from research in Turkish studies to their respective disciplines in American academia. The current project, however, expands the geographic scope to include European scholarship as well. Moreover, rather than survey the field of Turkish studies and assess its contributions to broader scholarship, it asks contributing authors to demonstrate the vitality and relevance of the field through original empirical research.
Studies on Turkey from an Interdisciplinary US and European perspective
As directors of the two institutions mentioned above, we are interested in achieving two important goals: To facilitate a process which will allow both established and emerging scholars, whose research is focused on Turkey,
1. To emphasize the interdisciplinary nature of the research they conduct, and
2. To demonstrate its relevance to disciplinary debates of interest to colleagues outside the field of Turkish studies as well.
One of the frequent criticisms made against the field of Turkish Studies is to highlight the idea that it is not a field, and that its practitioners are too narrowly focused on Turkey as a singular country. Consequently, criticisms declare that the nature of research that appears is too narrow, with little to no generalizable conclusions being generated in published material, relating to the particular discipline in question. Whilst such criticisms are valid to a point, both Ciddi and Levin contend that Turkish Studies is a field – having its own journals, academic programs, and institutions – and indeed a field that is thriving and growing, as evidenced by the recent establishment of the younger of the two institutes behind this initiative. Moreover, the "cross-sectional" nature of an area studies field such as ours encourages interdisciplinary scholarship and cross-pollination and as such holds great potential for theoretical innovation. Hence, it is unsurprising that in the last decade since the publication of Turkish Studies in the United States, a considerable amount of interdisciplinary research has begun to flourish that is focused on Turkey but which also speaks to a wider audience and asks broader questions.
In our capacity as Turkish Studies center directors and guest editors of a special December 2014 edition of Turkish Studies journal, we have invited leading scholars from the major disciplines in the social sciences and humanities to contribute newly authored articles that not only focus on furthering our knowledge on Turkey itself, but articles which derive conclusions that add to existing knowledge about a particular aspect of one or several disciplines.
In addition, we are now inviting Ph.D. students, whose research is at an advanced stage (ABD), and focused on Turkey to submit articles for presentation at Georgetown University alongside their senior peers. Whilst the articles of established scholars will be published in Turkish Studies journal in December 2014, students will be given a valuable opportunity to present their work before their experienced peers, receive feedback and have the possibility of getting their work published at a later date.
The common themes intended to draw all articles together in the volume and the conference is the interdisciplinary nature of the research presented by each author/authors, and the self-conscious demonstration of and reflection on how it advances not only our understanding of Turkey but also scholarship beyond the field of Turkish studies. Authors are free to utilize a variety of research methods (data analysis, in-depth interviews, comparative or single-case studies to name a few) to answer their chosen research question, but the organizers would like stress the importance of the interdisciplinary appeal of both the content and findings of their research.
This spring, the Center for Languages of the Central Asian Region (CeLCAR) will be hosting the first ever Conference of Central Asian Language and Linguistics (ConCALL) at Indiana University during the weekend of May 16 & 17, 2014.
We are now accepting submissions for 20-minute paper presentations (with 10 minute post-presentation questions and discussion) on topics related to Central Asian languages and linguistics within the conference theme: "Building a Bond: Strengthening the Central Asian Language Community."
Presenters will have the opportunity to submit to the published proceedings of the conference.
SUBMISSION can include, but are not limited to:
· linguistics (phonology, morphology, syntax and semantics)
· acquisition (first and second language acquisition)
· pedagogy
· education
Submission should consist of a titled abstract of no more than 500 words (not including examples and references) in .pdf format sent as an email attachment to firstname.lastname@example.com by the deadline of Friday, January 3, 2014.
Submissions will be sent for peer review, and submitters will be notified of acceptance no later than Monday, February 3, 2014.

This summer, there will be various Startalk programs for teacher training which include Turkish, each one with a different focus. Only one, however, at Boston University, is solely for teachers of Turkish, while the others are generic treacher training sessions.
University of Wisconsin-Madison has joined more than twenty-five other universities nationwide in an effort to help address the U.S. military's need for critical language specialists who understand foreign cultures and can communicate in regions of strategic and economic importance.
In summer 2012, UW-Madison was awarded funding for Project GO (Global Officers), an initiative to support ROTC students in learning critical languages and studying abroad. Project GO is jointly sponsored by the Department of Defense and the National Security Education Program (NSEP).
UW-Madison's Project GO funding provides fellowships for ROTC students from all branches of service to enroll in academic-year or summer domestic or study-abroad programs in Arabic, Hindi, Russian, Turkish, or Urdu. In addition, summer study abroad of Chinese is funded. Students who gain proficiency in one of these languages may become eligible for language incentive pay.
UW-Madison is an international leader in language education and research, offering instruction in dozens of modern and ancient languages. In addition to traditional academic-year programs, opportunities for language learning here include intensive summer institutes and a wide range of study-abroad options. For a listing of languages that were offered on campus during summer 2013, please visit:http://www.languageinstitute.wisc.edu/content/languages_programs/2013_summer.html
For applications and additional information, visit the Project GO at UW-Madison website, http://rotcprojectgo.wisc.edu/ or contact Mallory Zink at 608-265-1471.

I am a relatively new Geocacher in North East Ohio.
I have seen this site before, but never made much use of it, but will now. I came here recently to add a user guide for GeoBeagle since some people seemed confused on how to use it. Aside from providing suggestions and the guide, I am not really involved with the project.
I am still learning to edit Wikis. When I made the article for GeoBeagle I thought the summary was an article summary, not an edit summary. I look forward to learning more about WikiEdits soon.

We love the sexy bedhead look, but our hair rarely looks hot right after we roll out of bed in the morning. That's why we're totally obsessed with this volumizing spray from celebrity stylist Oscar Blandi. All we have to do is lift sections of hair while spraying it from ends to roots, and voila! We've got sultry, tousled strands in less time than it takes to get a vanilla soymilk latte en route to the office.
I have wavy, fine hair but a lot of it. This gives me the plump I need without the greasy mess. I spray on the inside of my roots, underneath and anytime throughout my night if I need lift I massage my roots and poof, instant volume.
I have thinner hair that is permed so I have to be very careful what I use. Also my hair doesn't hold very well. This spray is great! I got it as a sample and ended up buying the full size! Even if my hair is still a bit damp when I spray this on it keeps everything in place. The only reason I only gave it four stars was because the scent bothers my mom a bit, though I like the scent.
This is one of the best volumizing products I have tried - and I have tried quite a few. It plumps up my poufs quickly, without residue or a sticky/product-y feeling. It lasts all day too! I will definitely be buying the full size once my trial bottle runs out.
Straightening my hair can make it very flat but using this product gives it the right amount of volume without being over the top.
This product is okay at best. I don't use much if any product in my hair so maybe someone who spends more time on theirs would enjoy this.
Didn't like the smell. Seemed to make my hair feel greasy. Weighed my hair down a bit so it was limp by the end of the day. I've used better products.
I am not saying the product does not do what it says it will but in my opinion it could smell a bit better. I found the scent of this product repulsing. I am sorry to say it but I think they need to rework that bit out. I won't purchase a product that has a weird smell to it. :/
The spray itself is very clean and easy. It isn't sticky and it doesn't have an "Aqua Net" smell to it which was really refreshing. It was light and allowed for my hair to move fluidly after styling. Highly recommend it for every day use as well as travel.
This product is great for my long hair! It gives texture without making my hair rough and tangled. Will buy sooon!
I use this every other day and my 2nd day hair looks better than just washed and blow dried hair-almost. Love this product!

Comments: The rod itself is great... Sensitivity, lightweight, great blank finish... I returned mine because the rod butt ripped off from about 4 trips out. I didn't abuse it at all. This was after the reel holder tightener grip came off... Loved the rod and it's action but the small details that failed, killed it for me.
From: Edward: Santa Maria, CA 3/5/14
Comments: I love rods with micro-guides. DAIWA finally offered a rod with micros', maybe to test the market. I got the 7' MH for spinner baits and the 7'2" M for long casting top water walking baits. Both rods perfom excellent!! Spinner bait rod in light and well ballanced, great for making long acurate cast and so sensitive you can feel the blades thumping. Top water rod is very nice as well. Light, balanced, great action for walking baits and the handle is shorter so it won't get in the way when working top water baits. If you want to toss a top water ALL DAY, this is the rod. Hook keeper positioned in the right place as well not to get snagged in your boat's rod locker. A MUST BUY!!!
