The song analyzes Birdy's unhealthy relationship referred to as "skinny love". It describes how the relationship is broken with references to blood and crushed veneer. Birdy wants the relationship to last but realizes it is taking a toll on her. She tells her lover to be patient, kind, and balanced but realizes this did not happen. Over time, Birdy gains the strength to leave the relationship, cutting the ropes and owning the tickets to freedom while her ex is left with the ruins. She wonders how the relationship deteriorated and questions who will care for her ex now that she is gone.
Apologizing is so important to healthy relationships. I can't say it enough. If you are not able to say you are sorry for a wrong doing or for a mistake that you made then your relationships will suffer and die. People need to know that you are sorry and they need to know that you mean it. If you don't take the time to say you are sorry for something you may have done to hurt another person then you have a lot of work to do on yourself before you get involved in any way with anyone else. If we tell our children to say they are sorry for hurting a friend and we can't do it as adults something is very wrong with that picture. Find out how important it is to apologize for any wrong you have inflicted on anyone you are in relationship with and feel better about yourself, and strengthen your bonds.

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.

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
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
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.

2. Come on skinny love just last the year,
Pour a little salt we were never here,
My my my, my my my, my-my-my my-my...
Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer.
Tell my love to wreck it all,
Cut out all the ropes and let me fall,
My my my, my my my, my-my-my my-my...
Right in the moment this order's tall.
And I told you to be patient,
And I told you to be fine,
And I told you to be balanced,
And I told you to be kind,
And in the morning I'll be with you,
But it will be a different kind,
'Cause I'll be holding all the tickets,
And you'll be owning all the fines.
Come on skinny love, what happened here?
Suckle on the hope in light brassieres,
My my my, my my my, my-my-my my-my...
Sullen load is full, so slow on the split.
And I told you to be patient,
And I told you to be fine,
And I told you to be balanced,
And I told you to be kind,
And now all your love is wasted,
Then who the hell was I?
'Cause now I'm breaking at the britches,
And at the end of all your lines.
Who will love you?
Who will fight?
And who will fall far behind?
Come on skinny love,
My my my, my my my, my-my-my my-my...
My my my, my my my, my-my-my my-my.
3. Come on skinny love just last the year-
From the opening line of the song I can infer that the singer’s
relationship in which she is involved in, isn’t of good nature and can be
deemed as being unhealthy. This is later confirmed by the use of the
word ‘skinny’ which represents the unhealthy and undernourished side
to the relationship. Contrasting to this, it is apparent that the artist is
trying to allow the relationship to survive through the use of the words
‘just last the year’. This alone signifies her underlined plea for the love
to maintain.
4. Pour a little salt we were never here-
From this line of the song it can be interpreted as a resemblement of
how Birdy is attempting to heal the broken relationship from all of the
open scars, as if they were ‘never here’. Salt is commonly known for the
purification of open wounds, this can link into the fact that she wants
the relationship to become pure and un-broken.
5. My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer-
From these lines I can gather that the artist Birdy is struggling to move
forward in this relationship. With a sink usually being linked in with a
place of cleanness, however; with the lyrics stating ‘blood and crushed
veneer’ is involved, metaphorically showing that before she was
innocent and clean but something has drove her to becoming dirty and
tainted, the thing, typically being sinister, which relates to the crushed
veneer and blood.
6. I tell my love to wreck it all
Cut out all the ropes and let me fall
Regards to the first line of these two lyrics it can be interoperated as
linking in to how she is wishing that her lover would end the
relationship in order to prevent further pain. This then relates to the
second line; ‘cut all the ropes and let me fall’. This signifies that all
aspects of the relationship need to be dropped and cut in order to
create a release for the lovers.
7. My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
Right in the moment this order’s tall
From these lyrics I have inferred that the singer could be implying that
her being the one to end the relationship would prove to much of a
struggle, however staying within it is causing to much of a demanding
pain. This is evident from the lyrics ‘this orders tall’ suggesting that
working the relationship out and quitting it is equally as hard and
unbearable.
8. I told you to be patient
I told you to be fine
I told you to be balanced
I told you to be kind
From this set of lyrics it is apparent that the singer asked her
lover to follow through with these wishes, but from these it is
very clear that this did not happen. I can tell through the use
of ‘I told you to be’ suggesting that Birdy told him to do
something but he refused which led to the orders being too
tall.
9. In the morning I’ll be with you
but it will be a different kind
To me, these specific lyrics have the meaning that even after another
day the relationship that the person is involved in will still remain the
same, however, the feelings within it will not. This could be suggesting
that Birdy is becoming stronger to pick up the courage to leave the
relationship and breaking the orders being too tall. I gathered this
information from ‘’I’ll be with you’’ and ‘’it’ll be a different kind.’’ This
being the inference that her body is still intact, however her soul is
slowly deteriorating.
10. I’ll be holding all the tickets
and you’ll be owning all the fines
These lines suggest that Birdy has escaped the relationship with ‘’I’ll be
holding all the tickets’’ which can be interpreted as being her one way
out of the relationship. Her lover on the other hand, ‘’owning all the
fines’’ meaning they will have to pick the pieces up for themselves after
she leaves. This alone suggests the heartbreak aspects of the situation,
acting as a metaphor for a debt that they owe.
11. Come on skinny love what happened here
This line symbolises the questioning of Birdy and her relationship. She
can be seen as wondering how she and her own partner allowed their
relationship to progress to such bad state and in a poisonous situation.
This is aimed at the ‘what happened here’ verse.
12. Suckle on the hope in lite brassiere
my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
Sullen load is full; so slow on the split
‘’sullen load is full, so slow on the split’’ to me, creates the symbolism
of how long the couple took to finally put an end to the poisonous
relationship. It has taken them a long journey seeing as Birdy
mentioned a break up earlier on within the song
13. I told you to be patient
I told you to be fine
I told you to be balanced
I told you to be kind
Now all your love is wasted?
Then who the hell was I?
Here, the lyrics state ‘now all your love is wasted, then who the hell
was I?’ This meaning that Birdy feels like the love that was given whilst
in the relationship wasn’t true and was consequently, a waste of time.
She is questioning herself on how and why she would do that to
herself.
14. Now I’m breaking at the britches
and at the end of all your lines
Here Birdy states how she is breaking all the Britches which refers to
her wanting to cut all the ropes earlier in the song. This can be seen as
her way of saying goodbye and that she is through with the
relationship. This works well as this is how the song is seen to end.
15. Who will love you?
Who will fight?
And who will fall far behind?
This part in the song where Birdy starts to question herself and her
relationship once again. As she has acted as a nurturer towards her
lover, she wonders who will take her place. She wonders who will take
care of him like she did in the past. It can also be seen as her
wondering who will let him fall from the ropes like he did to her.
