National Endowment for the Humanities staff put on immediate leave
A majority of NEH employees received an email placing them on immediate leave. The news comes just days after many humanities councils across the country were told their grants would be terminated.

I just now found out that we lost NEH funding for the Spanish Homosaurus project: es.homosaurus.org/v4
We plan to continue work on this project, it will just have to proceed in a very different way. Heartbreaking, to me, is we had a professional paid linguist working on this project - not anymore.

Encyclopædia Britannica will continue to use ‘Gulf of Mexico’ for a few reasons:
-We serve an international audience, a majority of which is outside the U.S.
-The Gulf of Mexico is an international body of water, and the U.S.’s authority to rename it is ambiguous.
