In another, when a friend pointed out that Mullah Nasiruddin had said he was forty years old two years ago, Mullah Nasiruddin insisted that he always stands by what he says.

Robert Hayden carries his experiences through his poems. Three of his poems that show these experiences are, "Middle Passage", "Homage to the Empress of the Blues." And "Those Winter Sundays." Hayden talks about what it was like first hand on a ship as a slave. He talks about how the men around him went crazy. He says," That there were hardly room 'tween-decks for half the sweltering cattle stowed spoon-fashioned there; that some went mad of thirst and tore their flesh and successful the blood." (Hayden, R. 2013/1962 p. 2372). He also talked about what it was like being on the "voyage of death". The way Hayden words his poems are powerful, it really give you a detailed mental image. "A charnel stench, effluvium of living death, spreads outwards from the hold, where the living and the dead, the horribly dying, lie interlocked, lie foul with blood and excrement." (Hayden, R. 2013/1962 p.2375). In his poem, "Homage to the empress of the Blues", he is comparing his pain and suffering to a dance. "Because Grey laths began somewhere to show from underneath torn hurdygurdy lithographs of doll faced heavens..." (Hayden, R. 2013/1962 p.2377). As for the poem, "Those Winter Sundays", he reflects on the Sunday mornings when he was younger. The poem showed what has been lost in African-American experience. The poem started out as a pleasant memory but quickly turned sour. The father worked hard for his family but felt like everyone was ungrateful. "Speaking in differently to him, who had driven out the cold and polished my good shoes as well..." (Hayden, R. 2013/1962 p. 2377.)

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”.

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.
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.
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.
