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.

How to Create Map Views in the Odoo 17 ERPCeline George
The map views are useful for providing a geographical representation of data. They allow users to visualize and analyze the data in a more intuitive manner.
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 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.

4. Satellites A natural satellite, also known as “moon” is a small celestial body orbiting a larger one. Written with a capital “M”, the Moon refers to Earth unique natural satellite. Every planet in the Solar System, except Mercury and Venus, has at least one natural satellite in orbit about it. The discovery of planetary satellites was important because measurement of the period and dimensions of a satellite’s orbit enables to determine the mass of its planet (or strictly, the combined mass of the planet and satellite).
12. The Moon orbiting the Earth. Phases of the Moon. A common misconception is that the phases of the Moon are caused by the shadow of the Earth but, actually, the phases of the Moon are the result of varying viewing angles throughout the month.
13. The rotational motion of the Earth combined with the orbital motion of the Moon around the Earth implies that it takes 50 minutes more each day for the Moon to appear in the sky. The following diagram shows the Moon at sunset over its 4 weeks orbit around the Earth.
16. GALILEO GALILEI (1564-1642) “ Galileo, perhaps more than any other single person, was responsible for the birth of modern science." Stephen Hawking. Italian astronomer, physicist and mathematician. He improved the telescope and made important astronomical observations with it. Galileo discovered mountains and craters on the Moon, four satellites of Jupiter known as the “Galilean satellites”, and he also observerd the phases of Venus. He supported the heliocentric theory which places the Sun at the centre of the universe with planets orbiting around the Sun instead of around the Earth. This brought him into conflict with the Catholic Church (that at the time considered heliocentrism “contrary to Scripture”) and led him to trial and house arrest for the last eight years of his life.
17.
18. The phases of Venus From September 1610 Galileo Galilei observed that Venus displayed a full set of phases similar to the phases of the Moon (that’s because Venus is nearer to the Sun than the Earth as you can see in the diagram). So, Venus shows its illuminated hemisphere to the Earth when it is on the opposite side of the Sun, while you can’t see it when it is in between the Sun and the Earth. This discovery of the phases of Venus helped to affirm Copernicus’ heliocentric theory.

21. KEPLER Johannes Kepler (1571-1630) was a German astronomer and mathematician. He is best known for his three laws of planetary motions around the Sun. Observing the movement of Mars he concluded that Mars moves in an elliptical orbit. He also made important contributions to optic, improved the telescope, and helped to legitimize the discoveries of his contemporary Galileo Galilei.

24. Natural satellites of Mars: FOBOS Y DEIMOS Mars has two moons, Deimos and Fobos, which are small and irregularly shaped.
26. KEPLER’S FIRST LAW First law of planetary motion (1609): The orbit of every planet is an ellipse with the Sun at a focus. Put a pin in the position of each focus, and attach a string to them. Put a pencil point against the string and pull the string taut with the pencil, and keeping the string taut, move the pencil in a large arc. The pencil will draw the desired ellipse. Advice: draw the upper and lower halves of the ellipse separately. As you see, the sum of the distances of any point of ellipse to the foci is always the same.
27. Kepler’s second law. Second Law (1609): A line joining a planet and the Sun always sweeps out equal areas in equal intervals of time. The two shaded sectors EF and CD have the same surface areas.Therefore, if a planet moves from E to F in the same time that it moves from C to D (equal areas covered in an equal time), then the planet must move faster when it is near the Sun (from C to D) than when it is far from the Sun (from E to F).
28. Kepler’s third law Third Law ( 1618 ): For any planet, the square of its orbital period T (the time going around the Sun until it comes back to its original position) is directly proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its orbit (a). So, the nearer a planet is to the Sun (less distance to the Sun), the faster it orbits the Sun (less orbital period).
29.
30. Elliptical movement of the Earth around the Sun. It takes 365.26 days for the Earth to orbit the Sun, with a mean orbital speed of 29.76 km/s. In this period the Earth travels 930.000.000 km.
45. CONSTELLATIONS A constellation is an arbitrary group of stars. Today astronomers reconized 88 constellations, that are based on the ancient Greek culture (in fact their names are based on Greek mythology). A constellation has no real significance as their stars are at very different distances from us, and appear close together only because of a line-of-sight effect.
46. A star describes a complete circle in the sky, once per day, due to the Earth’s rotation around its axis. However it can disappear below the observer’s horizon if it is not sufficiently close to the celestial pole. In the diagram you can see such apparent circle for “Alkaid”, the end star of constellation Ursa Major, while Arcturus (one of the brightest stars in the sky) may dissapear for some hours.
