The document contains the weekly word lists from the Gladiator Academy's Word of the Day program. Each week focuses on a different root word and provides the word of the day with its part of speech, pronunciation, and definition for different subject areas across various dates. Some of the root words covered include gen (birth, creation), her/hes (to stick), id (one's own), and lect/leg (to select, choose). The words of the day include terms from across subjects such as language arts, math, science, social studies and others.
Verbal communication is perhaps the most obvious and understood mode of communication, and it is certainly a powerful tool in your communication toolbox. Put simply, verbal communication is the sharing of information between two individuals using words.
We’ve already employed a little bit of nonverbal communication with the active listening skills we’ve previously discussed: nodding, facial expressions, leaning toward the speaker to show interest—all of those are forms of nonverbal communication. Body language can reinforce your spoken message or it can contradict it entirely
This web seminar (presented October 14, 2010) explores a 5E learning cycle unit that integrates science and literacy through the study of the adaptations and habitats of the sanderling, a migratory shorebird. The unit is designed for students in the elementary grades.

Ontology is predicated to the creative principle of Logos. It defines self as a mirror image of the heart of Logos. Ontology is therefore a theory of resemblance. The first six slides are by way of introduction. The sixth is a revision of Logos. I have included a very brief review of psychological proposals such as the Imago Dei and the Jungian, Christ archetype, which are particularly relevant to Ontology. Following from that, models or proposals of a true self made by James Hillman, Michael Fordham, Donald Winnicott and George Hagman, etc, are likewise pertinent to the subject. However from slide seven the presentation follows the text of Unification Thought. A link to the text can be found on slide four. Much of Ontology is expressed as systems theory so self and community are compared to general systems thinking. Work in paleopsychology, Ken Wilber's AQAL model of the self (see an adaption on slide 15) and work done by Niklas Luhmann on social systems and communication, also address the field of Ontology. A fuller presentation embracing a wide field of inter-disciplinary work will soon be available.
Personal Identity: A Multidisciplinary InquiryMelanie Swan
Overview of personal identity from a philosophical perspective as conceived traditionally and disputed by Derek Parfit (Reasons and Persons; ‘personal identity is not required for the survival of the person’). An account of personal identity per philosophers Hume, Derrida, Deleuze, and Simondon. The evolutionary biological case for personal identity in humans. There is a large literature on the ability of members of many animal species (wasps for example) to distinguish specific individual others. I consider why and how personal identity might have evolved to bring adaptive fitness to humans, if the adaptation is still serving, and what forces might cause this to be different in the future.

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”.
