Flowers, hashtags & tyvek: how to organise an event about games with no budgetLorenzo Pilia
In the last couple of years I've been organising several video game-related events in Berlin, always in my spare time and with little or no budget, such as Join – 1st Local Multiplayer Summit, Talk & Play and the Berlin Twine Jam. In this talk I'd like to share some of the lessons I’ve learnt and give tips to people interested in organising a conference, meetup, game jam or other type of event, focusing on the importance of making them as culturally inclusive as possible.
I've collected some additional resources for people who'd like to organise events here: http://bit.ly/tips4events
This presentation was created for a talk I gave in October 2014 at GameCity 9 in Nottingham, UK.
Presentation at GDC 2009 in Cologne Germany, incorporating how Advanced TM\'s such as Catalyst are potentially far better fits for game localisation than traditional text based translation memory tools.
Northeast Equine Expo- May 29th -30th 2010
The Northeast Equine Expo is a premier equestrian and luxury lifestyle event. We will bring together all aspects and disciplines of the diverse equestrian world to celebrate our one commonality … the love of horses.
Northeast Equine Expo is located at the historic and world renowned Belmont Park Raceway in New York and will be the kickoff event for the week of The Triple Crown, Belmont Stakes Race.
Our event will feature all aspects of equestrian sports including racing, roping, pleasure riding, and polo.
I hope you enjoy our media kit. It should provide you with a nice overview of our event
Talking about gamification has gotten me into a whole lot of “heated discussions” over the past couple of years. Sometimes it’s with the sort of ahead-of-the-curve professionals who talk at length about the intricate game-play of Call of Duty versus the simple pleasures of Angry Birds; sometimes it’s with more sceptical types who balk at buzzwords and think digital culture is an oxymoron; sometimes it’s with both at the same time.

How to get sponsored: Create Sponsorship Proposals That Rock
Whether you are just starting with event sponsorship campaigns or have "been there, done that" this presentation can help you. Inside is a top secret skill to sponsorship, how to get sponsored and how to create effective sponsorship proposals.
This is THE most simple overview to sponsorship proposal creation. However, there's much more to sponsorship development than a pretty slide show(Thank you haikudeck.com). Finding sponsorship for your event is a complex process that is very fulfilling, but requires a very specific strategy each time you approach a potential supporter. You have to be sponsor centered in your approach, rather than a traditional approach to sponsorship that begins and ends with your details, needs and goals.

What does the future look like? Is it a dark space where we’re suffering from varying degrees of techamphetamine or are we heading towards a Utopian fantasy of abundance and harmony?
Understanding that our basic human needs and wants barely change, we explore the future state of a range of topics; from our need for physical sustenance through to our age-long fascination of transcending the limitations of our biology.
Looking at the future from a human perspective, our potential for greatness is teetering on a fine line between darkness and hope. We’re banking on the latter.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
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.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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.

Editor's Notes
It is most relevant that the world championships of equestrian sport, celebrating animals performing at their peak, the Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games™ 2014 in Normandy will be held during the year of the horse in 2014. In Chinese culture, the Horse is a symbol of nobility, class, speed and perseverance. People born in the Year of the Horse are smart, fabulous speakers who have a gift for getting through to other people. They believe that their aim in life is "to seek individual freedom and happiness."
