This document provides information about designing butterfly gardens in containers. It discusses choosing appropriate container size and plants that attract butterflies. Specifically, it examines using desert marigold and coastal gum plant in a small container garden with three planters. Desert marigold is highlighted as a good choice because it blooms yellow flowers, needs little water, and provides habitat for butterflies. Coastal gum plant is also presented as an option for its drought tolerance, attractive flowers, and support of pollinators. The document emphasizes selecting native plants that provide food and habitat throughout the butterfly's lifecycle.

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.

105. California woodmint (Hedgenettle) -
Stachys bullata
CA coast from San
Francisco to Orange Co.
Grows on:
dry slopes and canyons in
chaparral and coastal sage
scrub
partially-shaded canyons
coast live oak riparian
forest
sycamore riparian
woodlandhttp://ucjeps.berkeley.edu/cgi-bin/get_JM_treatment.pl?Stachys+bullata
106. Characteristics of CA Woodmint
Drought deciduous perennial
herb; but does like water
Size: 2-4 ft high, 3-4 ft wide
(spreading)
Foliage:
Dark green, softly hairy,
“wrinkled”
Scented: lemon-mint
Flowers:
Pink to lavender-red, with white
markings on the lower lips
Blooms Mar-May/June
Attract bees, hummingbirds,
butterflies
107. Succeeding with Stachys bullata
Does best in part-shade
Plant in well-drained soils
While drought tolerant, does
better with moderate water,
and tolerates seasonal flooding
useful in north- and east-facing
banks, rockwalls
Use it in woodland gardens or
perennial gardens
Remember that it suckers
freely – will spread moderately
especially if watered – makes a
good groundcover

125. The Yarrows – horticultural plants extraordinaire
Family: Asteraceae (Sunflower
family)
Cultivated in Europe ??thousands
of years
About half a dozen species are
commonly grown as garden plants
Natural variation in color has been
exploited – many named cultivars –
yellow, pink, red, purple
Attract many different
pollinators, including butterflies

151. Three Eriogonums I’d try
(in large sunny pots)
Red buckwheat – E. grande rubescens
California buckwheat – E. fasciculatum
Ashyleaf buckwheat – E. cinerium
Native Buckwheats are such
good pollinator habitat that it’s
probably worth the gamble
