If your department/university is not there, you can add it/them by<br>clicking on the arrows coming out of the department/university boxes.<br><br>And do spread the word to your friends and colleagues if you can.<br><br>Many thanks,<br><br>Richard<br><br>Dr. Richard Price,<br>Prize Fellow,<br>All Souls College,<br>Oxford,<br>OX1 4AL<br><a href="mailto:richard.price@all-souls.ox.ac.uk">richard.price@all-souls.ox.ac.uk</a><br><br><a href="http://oxford.academia.edu/RichardPrice">http://oxford.academia.edu/RichardPrice</a><br></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; min-height: 14px; "><br></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; ">--------------------------------------------------------------------------</div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; ">End of Arabic-L: 25 Sep 2008</div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></body></html>
