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”.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
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.

2. Review
What are two relationships you’ve
learned so far?
Relationships that involve time
Relationships that involve addition
3. Review
Which two ways do authors show relationships
to make their ideas clear? (hint: between what
and what?)
Transitions between sentences
Ex: The dog is happy. Additionally, I am happy.
Patterns of organization for supporting details
There are many ways to save money. First, you
can open a savings account, and add a small
amount of money to it each month.
4. Three more relationships!
Along with time and addition, there are
three more types of relationships to be
aware of:
Illustration
Comparison and contrast
Cause and effect
5. Illustration: not a drawing!
Illustration is NOT the kind you do in art
class. Not this kind, anyway.
Illustration, or “to illustrate,” means to give
an example.
Let me illustrate…
All of a sudden, I am always hungry. For
instance, this morning, I ate two breakfasts
instead of one. Another example: I had a
huge lunch and still was not satisfied!
6. Illustration
What transition word suggests an “illustration”
or “example”?
All of a sudden, I am always hungry. For instance, this
morning, I ate two breakfasts instead of one. Another
example: I had a huge lunch and still was not satisfied!
If you said “for instance “ and “another example,” then you are
correct!
7. Illustration Words (pg 228)
For example
For instance
Such as
Including
Specifically
To illustrate…
To be specific…
Using these words,
try your luck by
completing
Practice 1 on page
229 in your
textbook
8. Definition with Examples Pattern
Let’s think about relationships in supporting
details rather than between sentences.
Sometimes, writers will use examples to help
you better understand a definition of a word.
Say I were writing an essay on the word
‘democracy.’
I could provide my readers with several
examples of democracy, and they could get a
better sense of the definition.
9. Try It
If you wanted to help someone
understand the definition of the word
“addiction,” what are two examples you
could you use from “Soft Addictions” in
Chapter 5?
What are two examples of addiction that
you could use from real life?
10. Comparison and Contrast
What is the difference between these two
words? What does each one mean?
To compare means to look at the…
…similarities.
The contrast means to look at the…
…differences.
11. Examples of Comparison
At home, I like to get all of my tasks done before I go
out for fun, just as I like to get all of my homework
completed before I watch a movie.
Just like a bad dream, the test got worse and worse
and more difficult to escape!
My brother really likes ice cream. Similarly, my sister
does too.
12. Comparison words (pg 234)
Just as
Just like
Alike same
Both
Equally
Similarly
In a similar fashion
Using these words, try
your luck by
completing Practice 3
on page 234 in your
textbook
13. Examples of Contrast
Many ECC students enroll in the fall;
however, about a quarter less of them enroll
in the spring.
Even though people say they need to
exercise, most of them don’t do it.
My dog prefers to sleep instead of eat.
14. Contrast words (pg 235)
But
Yet
However
Although
Even though
Instead of
despite
Using these words, try
your luck by
completing Practice 4
on page 236 in your
textbook
15. Compare and/or Contrast Pattern
Let’s think about relationships in supporting
details rather than between sentences.
In a paragraph, an author might want to
organize the information based on comparison
or contrast.
The comparison-contrast pattern will show how
two items are alike, different, or both.
16. Try it
Take a look at “Check Your
Understanding” on page 238 for
an example of a compare/contrast
paragraph.
17. Cause and Effect
What is the difference between these two words? What
does each one mean?
Cause shows or explains…
…the reason why something happened, is happening, etc
Effect shows or explains….
…the result of what happened, what is happened.
18. Examples of Cause and Effect
I became a vegetarian because I adopted four chickens.
I adopted four chickens, so I became a vegetarian.
If there is bad weather tomorrow, then we can’t have our
picnic.
The students didn’t read the last chapter of their book.
Therefore, they did poorly on the quiz.
19. Cause and EffectWords (pg 241)
Therefore
Thus
As a result
If…then
Because
The reason
So
since
Using these words,
try your luck by
completing Practice

your textbook
20. Cause and Effect Pattern
Let’s think about relationships in supporting
details rather than between sentences.
Writers will often organize a paragraph using
a cause and effect pattern.
They might state a cause and provide several
effects, or they might give several causes and
one effect.
21. Try it
Take a look at “Check Your
Understanding” on page 243 for an
example of a cause/effect paragraph.
22. TESTYOURSELF
1. What are the three new types of relationships that
writers use as transitions and patterns of
organization?
2. What does a writer want to show when illustrating?
3. What does a writer want to show when comparing
or contrasting?
4. What does a writer want to show with cause and
effect?
