Sleep debt alters the levels of leptin and ghrelin, the hormones associated with appetite. It triggers appetite and leads to the risk of obesity in the long run. So, to keep tabs on hunger and weight, sleep for 8 hrs at a stretch, daily.
Development of Social Business B2B Model for e-Business OrganizationSamsul Alam
In this modern age of Information and Communication Technology (ICT), many local and international firms are entering into the e-marketplace, launching new business models and constantly generating new ideas for serving the society. While there are a number of top rated companies running through e-Business platforms worldwide that thrive only for profit; they also can run non-profit, charity-based businesses (social business) which can utilize e-Business platforms to save administrative costs which can then be used to directly help the underprivileged sections of the population. This study develops a Social Business B2B model for the B2B market to help in developing effective strategies in a social business environment. Given the fact that Alibaba provides a very successful B2B e-Business model based in a developing country (China) and that there is an ongoing interest of the proprietor of Alibaba in social business, we examine the suitability of Alibaba as a model for social business B2B framework.

Native English Teacher or Non - Native English Teacher?Self-employed
The contentious issue of (non)nativeness remains unanswered.
Nowadays, being an NNEST or NEST should not count but rather teachers' professional capabilities.
The presentation provides a forum for reflection and discussion about NNESTs.
We should value professional and personal qualities over ‘nativeness.’
The skills and qualities that make an effective language teacher are the most significant.
Both ‘NESTs’ and ‘NNESTs’ are expected to be competent teachers, each with excellent professional skills.
What can non-native English-speaking teachers (NNESTs) perform better?

How People Learn
Today, the primary theory is socio-constructivist—in which knowledge is understood to be importantly shaped by the context in which it is situated, and is actively constructed through social negotiation with others. On this understanding, learning environments should be where:
• Constructive, self-regulated learning is fostered
• The learning is sensitive to the context
• It will often be collaborative
Theoretical concepts do not yield concrete prescriptions for classroom application, but the good theory can be used flexibly and creatively by teachers in their planning and educational practice. At the same time, not all learning takes place in the classroom as much of it occurs at home, on the sports field, in museums and so forth (non-formal education), and sometimes implicitly and effortlessly (informal learning).
12 Learning Theories:
• Constructivism
• Behaviorism
• Piaget's Developmental Theory
• Neuroscience
• Brain-Based Learning
• Learning Styles
• Multiple Intelligences
• Right Brain/Left Brain
• Thinking
• Communities of Practice
• Control Theory
• Observational Learning
• Vygotsky and Social Cognition
Many people appear to object to the approximation of a 'culture of learning.'
Every formal education institution has a culture of its own, which imitates a system of implicit and explicit beliefs about learning.
Learning also has a cultural dimension that is the manner we see and perceive education which may shift depending on situations and environment.
A culture of teaching and learning is collaboratively constructed by students and teachers. It is about their expectations of 'what should be known' and 'who should experience it.'
THE FUTURE OF EDUCATION
We are observing “a revolution in education.” We know that improving technology play a distinctive role in the evolution, and traditional foundations will face challenges in the future.
In my presentation, I discuss some initial findings on the future of the 21st-century education.
As a passionate teacher, I am interested how do I best educate my students?
It is not about what I teach, but about how I teach them.
According to the recent literature, on the subject, today’s education is behind new requirements and technologies.
There is a vibrant debate about preparing teachers to use new techniques as well as how up-to-date educators might become more “future-oriented” and familiar with new skills.
I am interested in discussing these thoughts with others.
Certainly, we should take into account the wide-ranging nature of education, which is especially significant, in developing countries.
I do not try to search for a universal remedy of worldwide education. It would be unrealistic.
It is certain that the future education will become more technologically driven, and will function in an environment where success depends on the use of new technology, development and improvements.
It is important to underline that from my perspective; new technology is not going to substitute students in a classroom.
More than that, it will neither replace the social life, nor the transformational experience of progress learners whereby they will go through as part of their study.

The Latest State of Research and Netiquette.
The phenomenal growth of online education is presenting uncharted challenges for academic institutions.
A virtual learning environment can also include students and teachers “meeting” online through a synchronous web-based application. The teacher is able to present lessons through video, PowerPoint, or chatting. The students are able to talk with other students and the teacher, as well as collaborate with each other, answer questions, or pose questions. They can use the tools available through the application to virtually raise their hand, send messages, or answer questions on the screen given by the teacher or student presenter.
May 3 National Holiday (also May 3rd Constitution Day; Polish: Święto Konstytucji 3 Maja) is a Polish national and public holiday that takes place on May 3. The holiday celebrates the declaration of the Constitution of May 3, 1791. Festivities date back to the Duchy of Warsaw early in the 19th century, but it became an official holiday only in 1919 in the Second Polish Republic. Delisted during the times of the People's Republic of Poland, it was reestablished after the fall of communism in modern Poland.

Songs Are The Art Of Speaking
I have been using songs to teach English and Polish for a long time. Personally I firmly believe in the power of good music as well as in the power of well-written lyrics. Songs may help with learning pronunciation and can be the inspiration for extraordinarily interesting, challenging discussions. Different topics often inspire students to talk about various issues and problems, often sharing extremely different perspectives. That is why songs are also materials for practicing conversational skills.
New Year's Day and New Year’s Eve, known in Poland as Sylwester (St Silvester's Day), marks the start of the carnival period, which features celebratory events like balls and parties. A fun tradition that has been popular for centuries is the kulig (sleigh rides). Many people in Poland celebrate New Year’s Day with dances, concerts, and meals featuring traditional Polish dishes including bigos (hunter’s stew).
Polish customs, especially at Christmas time, are both beautiful and meaningful.
The preparations for Christmas begin many days before the actual celebration. Nearly everywhere women are cleaning windows in apartments and houses just before Christmas. The insides of the houses are also cleaned thoroughly. It is believed that if a house is dirty on Christmas Eve, it will remain dirty all next year.
The Breaking of the Oplatek
One of the most beautiful and most revered Polish customs is the breaking of the oplatek. The use of the Christmas wafer (oplatek) is not only by native Poles in Poland but also by people of Polish ancestry all over the world.
The oplatek is a thin wafer made of flour and water. For table use, it is white. In Poland, colored wafers are used to make Christmas tree decorations. In the past, the wafers were baked by organists or by religious and were distributed from house to house in the parish during Advent. Today, they are produced commercially and are sold in religious stores and houses. Sometimes an oplatek is sent in a greeting card to loved ones away from home.

World's Greatest Songs—As Time Goes By
No list of "World's Greatest Songs" would be complete without the ever-endearing "As Time Goes By" from one of the greatest movies of all time, the 1943 Academy Award winning (Best Picture) Casablanca.
• The lyrics are about how the innocence and wonder of childhood can quickly give way to worry and cynicism as children are taught to be responsible adults. It makes the point that logic can restrict creativity and passion. Supertramp keyboard player Roger Hodgson, who wrote this song and sang the lead vocals, said in our 2012 interview: "I think it was very relevant when I wrote it, and actually I think it's even more relevant today. It's very basically saying that what they teach us in schools is all very fine, but what about what they don't teach us in schools that creates so much confusion in our being. I mean, they don't really prepare us for life in terms of teaching us who we are on the inside. They teach us how to function on the outside and to be very intellectual, but they don't tell us how to act with our intuition or our heart or really give us a real plausible explanation of what life's about. There's a huge hole in the education. I remember leaving school at 19, I was totally confused. That song really came out of my confusion, which came down to a basic question: please tell me who I am. I felt very lost. I had to educate myself in that way, and that's why California was very good for me to kind of re-educate myself, if you like.
This was the title track of The Eagles’ 1976 album of the same name, and is an allegory about hedonism and self-destruction in the Southern California music industry of the late 1970’s. The May 1977 single release went to Number 1 in the USA and won a Grammy Award for Record of the Year.
