 Is NONVERBAL COMMUNICATION of interest to linguist subscribers?
I wonder if subscribers to the list might be interested in
nonverbal communication--tones of voice, facial expressions, gestures,
and the nuances of communication generally.
 The University of California has a series of documentary
videotapes on NONVERBAL COMMUNICATION. The newest addition, just
completed, is "THE HUMAN FACE: Emotions, Identities and Masks."
 One of the earlier tapes, "THE HUMAN VOICE: Exploring Vocal Paralanguage,"
focuses on the power of the voice (verbal + nonverbal) in interpersonal
communication, and the focus is on the range of inferences that one
can made about speakers based on their text and voice.

O-Hayo Sensei collects and prints information about currently available
English-teaching positions in Japan (38 in this issue). In addition to job

O-Hayo Sensei is not a recruiter or an agent, and has no affiliation to any
