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.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

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.

Flying
1.
2. Leonardo da VinciLeonardo da Vinci
Leonardo da VinciLeonardo da Vinci was excellent painter,
architect and inventor. For much of his life,
Leonardo was fascinated by the phenomenon
of flight, producing many studies of the flight of
birds. He as plans for several flying machines,
including a helicopter and a light hang glider.
Most were impractical, but the hang glider has
been successfully constructed and
demonstrated.
Design for a flying machine
3. The Leonardo Gallery in Museum of technique in Milan
The original nucleus of this museum was our ample collection of models
of his machines, which were reconstructed from his drawings
4. BALLOONBALLOON
A balloon travels by moving with
the wind. It is distinct from an
airship, which is a buoyant aircraft
that can be propelled through the
air in a controlled manner.
5. History of ballooningHistory of ballooning
Unmanned hot air balloons are popular in Chinese history.
Zhuge Liang of the Shu Han kingdom, in the Three Kingdoms
era (220-280 AD) used airborne lanterns for military signaling.
The first clearly recorded instance of a balloon carrying
passengers used hot air to generate buoyancy and was built
by the brothers Joseph-Michel and Jacques-Etienne
Montgolfier in Annonay, France. After experimenting with
unmanned balloons and flights with animals, the first tethered
balloon flight with humans on board took place on October 19,
1783 with the scientist Jean-François Pilâtre de Rozier, the
manufacture manager, Jean-Baptiste Réveillon and Giroud de
Villette, at the Folie Titon in Paris. The first free flight with
human passengers was on November 21, 1783 King Louis
XVI had originally decreed that condemned criminals would be
the first pilots, but de Rozier, along with Marquis Francois
d'Arlandes, successfully petitioned for the honor.
First passengers: sheep, cock and duck
6. PARACHUTEPARACHUTE
A parachute is a device used to slow the motion of an object through an
atmosphere by creating drag. Parachutes are made out of cloth, most commonly
nylon. Parachutes are often used, for example, to slow the descent of an object
falling to Earth or another celestial body within an atmosphere.
According to historian Robert Temple, Chinese texts
described a form of parachute 21 centuries ago. A conical
parachute appears for the first time in the 1470s in an Italian
manuscript, slightly preceding Leonardo da Vinci's conical
parachute designs. It was intended as an escape device to
allow people to jump from burning buildings, but there is no
evidence that it was actually ever used. Leonardo da Vinci
sketched a parachute while he was living in Milan around
1480-1483. The first military use for the parachute was for
use by artillery spotters on tethered observation balloons in
World War. These were tempting targets for enemy fighter
aircraft, though difficult to destroy, due to their heavy
antiaircraft defenses.
7. PARAGLIDERPARAGLIDER
The pilot sits in a harness suspended
below a fabric wing, whose shape is
formed by its suspension lines and the
pressure of air entering vents in the front
of the wing.
A paraglider is a free-flying, foot-launched aircraft.
8. Powered hang gliderPowered hang glider
A foot-launched powered hang glider (FLPHG), also called powered
harness, nanolight or hangmotor, is a powered hang glider harness with a
motor and propeller in pusher configuration. An ordinary hang glider is used
for its wing and control frame, and the pilot can foot-launch from a hill or from
flat ground, needing a length of about a football field to get airborne, or much
less if there is an oncoming breeze and no obstacles. Although the main
appeal of FLPHGs is to the already experienced hang glider pilot, interest in
these machines is growing rapidly, particularly in areas where there are no
hills for foot-launching.
The pilot can cruise in good weather at speeds of 40 to 72 km/h (25 to 45
mi/h), but powered harnesses have limited power, range and thrust, so are
best used as self-launch devices to achieve enough altitude to find a warm-
rising air thermal for soaring.
9. An ultralight trike, also known as a Flex-wing trike or Weight-Shift
Microlight, is a type of powered hang glider using the Rogallo wing coupled
to a propeller-powered three-wheeled undercarriage. While most powered
aircraft have three-wheeled landing gear, the term "trike" refers specifically to
the form of aircraft described here.
10. BLIMPBLIMP
Aircraft began to transport people and cargo as designs grew larger and
more reliable. In contrast to small non-rigid blimps, giant rigid airships
became the first aircraft to transport passengers and cargo over great
distances. The best known aircraft of this type were manufactured by
the German Zeppelin company.
The most successful Zeppelin was the Graf Zeppelin. It flew over one
million miles, including an around-the-world flight in August 1929.
However, the dominance of the Zeppelins over the airplanes of the that
period, which had a range of only a few hundred miles, was diminishing
as airplane design advanced. The "Golden Age" of the airships ended
on June 6, 1937 when the Hindenburg caught fire killing 36 people.
Although there have been periodic initiatives to revive their use, airships
have seen only niche application since that time.
13. History of gliderHistory of glider
The first heavier-than-air man-carrying aircrafts were Sir George Cayley's series
of gliders which achieved brief wing-borne hops from around 1849. Santos
Dumont, Otto Lilienthal, Percy Pilcher, John J. Montgomery, and the Wright
Brothers are other pioneers who built gliders to develop aviation. After World
War I gliders were built for sporting purposes in Germany (see link to Rhön-
Rossitten Gesellschaft) and in the United States (Schweizer brothers). The
sporting use of gliders rapidly evolved in the 1930s and is now the main
application. As their performance improved, gliders began to be used to fly
cross-country and now regularly fly hundreds or even thousands of kilometers in
a day, if the weather is suitable.
Otto Lilienthal 1895
14. AIRPLANEAIRPLANE
A fixed-wing aircraft, usually called an airplane or aeroplane, is a
heavier-than-air aircraft capable of flight whose lift is generated not by wing
motion relative to the aircraft, but by forward motion through the air. The
term is used to distinguish fixed-wing aircraft from rotary-wing aircraft and
ornithopters in which lift is generated by blades or wings that move relative
to the aircraft. Many fixed-wing aircraft are propelled forward by the thrust
from propellers or jet engines, but the category includes unpowered aircraft
(usually called gliders).
15. The WrightThe Wright brothersbrothers
The Wright brothers built the first airplane that had
a motor. When Wilbur and Orville were boys, they
made own toy helicopter. The Wright brothers
worked together when they grew up.
They learned more about how birds fly. They used what they learned to build a
glider. They could steer it well. They made a wind tunnel from a wood box. It helped
the brothers learn about flying. The brothers made a new plane. It had a motor.
They called the plane „The Flyer”. They took the plane to a field at Kitty Hawk,
North Carolina. Wilbur got in the plane. The plane flew for about 3 seconds. Then it
crashed! It took three days to fix the plane. When it was ready, Orville got on the
plane. On December 17, 1903 the plane flew! It stayed in the air for 12 seconds.
Then it safely landed on the ground. It was wonderful first flight.
16. The Caproni Ca.60 Noviplano was a nine wing flying boat intended to be a
prototype for a 100 passenger trans-atlantic airliner. It featured eight
engines and three sets of triple wings. Two pontoons, mounted on each
side, were intended to give the aircraft stability. Only one example of this
aircraft was built by Caproni. The prototype only made one short flight on 4
March 1921 over Lake Maggiore in Italy. The aircraft attained an altitude
of only 60 feet and crashed shortly thereafter. It broke up on impact and
quickly filled with water, sinking to the bottom of the lake in a few minutes.
Both pilots were killed!

18. JET AIRCRAFTJET AIRCRAFT
A jet aircraft is an aircraft propelled by jet engines. Jet aircraft fly much
faster than propeller-powered aircrafts and at higher altitudes — as high
as 10,000 to 15,000 meters. At these altitudes, jet engines achieve
maximum efficiency over long distances. The engines in propeller
powered aircraft achieve their maximum efficiency at much lower
altitudes. Jet aircraft can move faster than sound.
19. HELICOPTERHELICOPTER
BLADEBLADE
A helicopter is an aircraft that is lifted and propelled by one or more
horizontal rotors, each rotor consisting of two or more rotor blades.
Helicopters are classified as rotorcraft or rotary-wing aircraft to distinguish
them from fixed-wing aircraft because the helicopter achieves lift with the
rotor blades which rotate around a mast. The word 'helicopter' is adapted
from the French hélicoptère, coined by Gustave de Ponton d'Amecourt in
1861, which originates from the Greek helix/helik- ( λικ-) = "spiral" orἕ
"turning" and pteron (πτερόν) = "wing".
