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.

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.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
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.

1. NPC FORCM WEEKLY 8–12 August 2011
Career progression, community management, personnel matters, and general information from the desk of the Navy
Personnel Command, Force Master Chief, FORCM Jon Port
ENLISTED RETENTION BOARD UPDATE
Enlisted Retention Board Quotas for E4-E8 were updated on 8 August and are posted on the NPC website. ERB Phase I begins on 22 August, with
the Board convening to review E4-E5 personnel. Final quotas for E6-E8 personnel will be released 1 September and the last day to submit
correspondence for consideration is 6 September. For those Sailors who submitted conversion packages, good luck and if additional
documentation needs to be added to them (e.g. submarine physical, updated AFCT qualifying scores); paperwork can be added to the package up to
1 October.
Competition will be keen and we will lose some good Sailors, but it is our hope we will retain even better Sailors. For those Sailors not up for this
upcoming ERB but looking at the future with concern, the best way to be prepared for anything ahead is to have sustained superior performance,
meet qualification deadlines ahead of time, study for advancement, and work on off-duty education. In other words, make yourself the most
competitive you can be. And if you’re facing a tough road ahead due to your rating being overmanned, consider conversion to an undermanned
rate. Conversion will offer you greater advancement potential and you gain a new skill set for the future. Be flexible to win in the end!
ENLISTED EARLY CAREER TRANSITION PROGRAM
Active duty and Full-Time Support (FTS) Sailors who want to pursue reserve options have a new opportunity to do so with the Early Career
Transition Program (ECTP). Eligible Sailors may submit requests up to 15 months prior, but no later than three months prior to desired transition
date. When approved, members will incur mandatory drilling reserve obligation equal to the remaining active portion of their current contract. The
minimum obligation will be for one year if remaining in rate or four years if converting to a different rate. Eligible Sailors are those currently
serving in AC or FTS CREO 2 or 3 ratings and requesting to serve in a SELRES CREO 1 or 2 rating. The Career Transition Office is available to
assist Sailors with selecting a Navy Operational Support Center (NOSC), provide details on reserve component programs and benefits and
complete all required paperwork. Benefits of reserve affiliation can include a two-year deferment from individual mobilization, affiliation bonus,
TRICARE low cost medical and dental coverage, reserve retirement benefits, continued exchange and commissary privileges, flexible drill
opportunities and Montgomery GI Bill benefits.
MINIMALIST FOOTWEARNOW AUTHORIZED
For those athletes or just fans of minimalist footwear for PT and PFA, it is now authorized in accordance with NAVADMIN 238/11
This NAVADMIN authorizes the wearing of minimalist footwear with the navy physical training uniform (PTU) during command/unit directed
physical training (PT), individual PT, and activities to include the semi-annual physical fitness assessment (PFA).
Minimalist footwear is defined as shoes that allow the foot to function naturally without providing additional support or cushioning. Any shoe that
is marketed as minimalist or barefoot-like footwear (current types such as the - VIBRAM five fingers, NIKE free shoes, vivo barefoot shoes, inov-8
shoe, and FEELMAX) are authorized for wear with the PTU.
NAVY EXCEPTIONAL FAMILY MEMBER PROGRAM
The Navy's Exceptional Family Member Program (EFMP) is designed to assist sailors by addressing the special needs of their exceptional family
members (EFM) during the assignment process. Special needs include any special medical, dental, mental health, developmental or educational
requirement, wheelchair accessibility, adaptive equipment or assistive technology devices and services. In the Navy EFM Program, the primary
function is the PERSONNEL FUNCTION. The Navy EFMP Coordinators serve both Personnel and Family Support functions, but with an
emphasis on the Personnel function. The goal of the EFMP is to ensure the special needs of the EFM can be met at a new assignment location.
EFMP enrollment information enables Navy detailers to proactively consider a family member's special need requirements during the assignment
process and to pinpoint the assignment to a location with appropriate resources that address the special needs.
EFMP enrollment is mandatory and required immediately upon identification of a special need. DD Form 2792, Exceptional Family Member
Medical and Educational Summary and DD Form 2792-1, Exceptional Family Member Special Education/Early Intervention Summary are used
for enrollment. Command points of contact and Navy medical treatment facility (MTF) EFMP coordinators can assist service and family members
with the enrollment process. Sailors may be reluctant to enroll because of misconceptions that EFMP enrollment may limit assignments and career
advancement, or preclude family members from accompanying sponsors on overseas tours. These negative perceptions are not supported by fact.
Sailors enrolled in the EFMP have always received equal consideration for accompanied assignments and for promotions. Please contact your local
MTF Coordinator for assistance with enrollment.
