Blu-Ray and HD DVD were competing formats for high-definition optical discs released in 2006, with Blu-Ray holding more data capacity and support from major studios. While HD DVD could hold 30GB total across two layers, Blu-Ray discs offered up to 128GB in a single layer and maintained consistent video quality throughout films. Blu-Ray ultimately won the format war due to its financial backing from studios and technological advantages over HD DVD such as greater storage capacity and consistent video quality for full-length films.

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.

1.
2. Blu Ray
Blu Ray discs are now the leading format of viewing
films in HD. Blu Ray discs have a large amount of
available data as they contains 25g within a single
layer and they can feature up to 3 layers! BluRay also
has its own network for real movie goers as they can
upload there own reviews and documentary's while the
film is playing. Blu Ray was released on June 2006
3. HD DvD
HD DvD was worldwide released on April 18, 2006.
HD DvD can contains up to two layers each
containing 15gig which opens up for a total of 30gig
available upon HD DVD’s. This around three times
as much of an average DvD.
4. Which is better?
These are the two primary formats that were
released to enable the viewer to finally watch
their movies in high definition. Both of these
models were released in 2006 but now only
one remains today.
5. Why did Blu Ray win ?
There are multiple reasons behind Blu Ray coming out on
top. First off being that financially Blu Ray had the upper
hand in support from major studios where as the support
that HD DvD received was not to match. Another reason
was that when playing longer films the quality from the HD
DvD would begin to fade as the film progressed where as
with Blu Ray it remained consistent throughout. Another
being that Blu Ray features more available data, and also
Blu Ray was supported by a live system that owners of Blu
Ray could access and join in with.
6. Why didn’t HD DvD win ?
The reasons for HD DvD losing the format war
are mainly due to its obsolete quality’s when
compared to the Blu Ray disc, although there
is also some luck involved as Sony managed
to get the Blu Ray disc backed by a major
company which was enough to take the HD
DvD out of the fight.
