Jeff declines his friends' invitation to go to a bar for his 21st birthday because he has an important medical school interview the next morning. They convince him to go for one drink, but he drinks too much and passes out. His friends struggle to find his address to take him home, encountering various mishaps and confrontations along the way that result in Jeff being arrested and taken to a mental hospital. They eventually get Jeff home and help him prepare for his interview, where he decides not to pursue medical school against his father's wishes. Three months later, one of Jeff's friends has his own college interview the next day but attends a wild music festival and shows up late and disheveled.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Having been best friends in high school, Casey and Miller,
themselves are already 21 or over and want to take Jeff
Chang out for his 21st birthday. However, he declines, as he
has to get up early the next morning to arrive at the
important med school interview at 8 am. After Miller
threatens to make a lot of noise the whole night if he
persists in his refusal he accepts to come along for just one
drink.
In a bar, Jeff accidentally hits a boy named Randy with a
dart. Randy gets aggressive and they have to flee, even
though Casey was having a nice chat with a girl named
Nicole. Jeff gets excited that he is allowed to enter bars
now, drinks too much, and becomes unresponsive. Casey
and Miller want to take him home, but do not remember
where he lives. Since Nicole knows Jeff, they try to find her,
because she may know where he lives. They sneak into a
sorority house, where they think Nicole lives, but it is the
wrong house, where only female Latina students live.

Along the way, they encounter two blindfolded women ready to
be paddled as part of their sorority initiation ritual. Miller has the
women make out with each other, but these and the other
women of the house are furious when they find out about the
intrusion. They have to flee the house, and Casey and Miller
throw Jeff from a balcony onto the pool cover that bounces him
into a rose garden, and worry that they killed him, but he is not
injured, except for thorns in his buttocks, although he is still
ready to party.
They find Nicole, but she does not know the address, and refer
them to Randy, who turns out to be her boyfriend. After Randy
refuses to look up the address in his telephone, Miller threatens
him with the gun they found in Jeff's pocket, to steal the
telephone. He shoots into the air, causing a buffalo to panic and
attack people, including Randy. At the address they find, it turns
out that he does not live there anymore. There is a party going
on in the house, and they have to join games in order to get
access to the boy who may know the address, including a drinking
game against some ethnic Serbian guys.

Finally they have access to him, but he does not know the new
address. They leave Jeff in the care of two stoned students, who
for fun undress him , write "Douchefag" on his forehead, and glue
a teddy bear to his penis. After leaving the party he goes out on
the street still like this. Casey and Miller want to get him
dressed, but he runs away and is arrested after running across
cars. Casey and Miller go to the police station, where they are
told he has been transferred to a mental hospital. A woman
pretends to escort them to that place, but it is a trap by the
Latino women. They take revenge, and Casey and Miller, with
buttocks branded and bruised by spanking, have to walk on the
campus dressed in nothing but socks on their penises to get new
clothes. In the mental health facility, Casey and Miller want to
take Jeff home, but the hospital refuses. Then they smuggle him
out, for which they have to throw him from the third
floor, making them worry that they "killed him again", but again
he is not injured. Jeff, now awake, steals the car on which he
was dropped which turns out to be Randy's, and they flee, with
Jeff driving recklessly.
Jethro Arias
9. Finally
Casey and Miller help Jeff to get
ready for the interview. They pull the teddy
bear off, circumcising Jeff in the
process, and dress him well. Randy has
arrived at Jeff's home to destroy the
room, but his father arrives and hits Randy.
Encouraged by Casey and Miller, Jeff
confesses to his father, who pressured him to
go to medical school, that he does not want
this. The father does not accept this, until
Miller hits him. Randy admires Jeff for
standing up against his father and reconciles
with him.

10. Three
months later, Miller, who is intelligent
but lazy, improves his grades and wants to go
to university. The night before his admissions
interview, he is at a music festival with
Casey, Nicole, who is Casey's girlfriend
now, and Jeff. He has a wild night and
arrives apologizing at his professor's office
with a broken leg and red hair. The professor
turns out to be the 'Chief' they saw
repeatedly dancing alone in the street that
earlier night.
