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.
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

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.
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.

3. The word ‘Pathology’ is derived from two Greek words—pathos
meaning suffering, and logos meaning study.
Pathology is, thus, scientific study of structure and function of the body
in disease; or in other words, pathology consists of the abnormalities
that occur in normal anatomy (including histology) and physiology
owing to disease.
Pathologists are the diagnosticians of disease

7. Overview of Cell Injury
• Cells actively control the composition of their
immediate environment and intracellular milieu within
a narrow range of physiological parameters
(“homeostasis”)
• Under physiological stresses or pathological stimuli
(“injury”), cells can undergo adaptation to achieve a
new steady state that would be compatible with their
viability in the new environment.
• If the injury is too severe (“irreversible injury”), the
affected cells die.
8. Causes of Cell Injury
• Hypoxia and ischemia
• “Chemical” agents
• “Physical” agents
• Infections
• Immunological reactions
• Genetic defects
• Nutritional defects
• Aging
Hypoxia (oxygen deficiency) and ischemia (blood flow deficiency)
“Chemical” agents: including drugs and alcohol
“Physical” agents: including trauma and heat
Infections
Immunological reactions: including anaphylaxis and loss of immune tolerance that results in autoimmune disease
Genetic defects: hemoglobin S in SS disease, inborn errors of metabolism
Nutritional defects: including vitamin deficiencies, obesity leading to type II DM, fat leading to atherosclerosis
Aging: including degeneration as a result of repeated trauma, and intrinsic cellular senescence
9. Mechanisms of Cell Injury: General Principles
• Cell response to injury is not an all-or-nothing
phenomenon
• Response to a given stimulus depends on the type,
status, and genetic make-up of the injured cell
• Cells are complex interconnected systems, and
single local injuries can result in multiple secondary
and tertiary effects
• Cell function is lost far before biochemical and
subsequently morphological manifestations of injury
become detectable
Cell response to injury is not an all-or-nothing phenomenon: The stronger and the longer the stimulus, the larger the damage
Response to a given stimulus depends on the type, status, and genetic make-up of the injured cell: Contrast ischemia in skeletal muscle (tolerates 2 hours) versus cardiac muscle (tolerate 20
minutes); contrast neurons and glia.
Cells are complex interconnected systems, and single local injuries can result in multiple secondary and tertiary effects: Cyanide indirectly affects osmotic regulation by loss of function of Na/K-
ATPase
Cell function is lost far before biochemical and subsequently morphological manifestations of injury become detectable: This has big implications for the use of pathology as gold standard for
evaluation of new technologies that could detect changes before they are morphologically apparent
10. General Biochemical Mechanisms
1. Loss of energy (ATP depletion, O2 depletion)
Cytosolic free calcium is 10,000 times lower than extracellular calcium or sequestered intracellular calcium. Increase in cytosolic calcium can result in activation of phospholipases (membrane
damage), proteases, ATPases, and endonucleases.
Increase in cytosolic calcium, oxidative stress, and lipid breakdown products result in formation of high-conductance channels in inner mitochondrial membranes (“mitochondrial permeability
transition”) that result in loss of proton gradient. Cytochrome C can also leak into the cytosol, activating apoptotic pathways.
11. General Biochemical Mechanisms

2. Mitochondrial damage (“permeability transition”)
Cytosolic free calcium is 10,000 times lower than extracellular calcium or sequestered intracellular calcium. Increase in cytosolic calcium can result in activation of phospholipases (membrane
damage), proteases, ATPases, and endonucleases.

15. Free Radicals
• Free radicals are chemical species with a single
unpaired electron in an outer orbital
• Free radicals are chemically unstable and therefore
readily react with other molecules, resulting in
chemical damage
• Free radicals initiate autocatalytic reactions;
molecules that react with free radicals are in turn
converted to free radicals
16. Intracellular Sources of Free Radicals
• Normal redox reactions generate free radicals
• Nitric oxide (NO) can act as a free radical
• Ionizing radiation (UV, X-rays) can hydrolyze water
into hydroxyl (OH) and hydrogen (H) free radicals
• Metabolism of exogenous chemicals such as CCl4
can generate free radicals
• Free radical generation is a “physiological”
antimicrobial reaction
17. Neutralization of Free Radicals
1. Spontaneous decay
2. Superoxide dismutase (SOD):
2O + 2H → O + H O
2 2 2 2
3. Glutathione (GSH):
2OH + 2GSH → 2H2O + GSSG
4. Catalase:
2H2O2 → O2 + H2O
5. Endogenous and exogenous antioxidants (Vitamins
E, A, C and β-carotene)
18. Free Radical-Induced Injury
• If not adequately neutralized, free radicals can
damage cells by three basic mechanisms:
1. Lipid peroxidation of membranes: double bonds in
polyunsaturated membrane lipids are vulnerable to
attack by oxygen free radicals
2. DNA fragmentation: Free radicals react with thymine
in nuclear and mitochondrial DNA to produce single
strand breaks
3. Protein cross-linking: Free radicals promote
sulfhydryl-mediated protein cross-linking, resulting in
increased degradation or loss of activity
19. “Reperfusion” Damage
• If cells are reversibly injured due to ischemia,
restoration of blood flow can paradoxically result in
accelerated injury.
• Reperfusion damage is a clinically important process
that significantly contributes to myocardial and
cerebral infarctions
• Exact mechanisms are unclear, but
– Restoration of flow may expose compromised cells to
high concentrations of calcium, and
– Reperfusion can result in increase free radicals
production from compromised mitochondria and the
circulating inflammatory cells
20. Chemical Injury
• Direct damage such as binding of mercuric chloride
to sulfhydryl groups of proteins
• Generation of toxic metabolites such as conversion of
CCl4 to CCl3 free radicals in the SER of the liver
21. Cellular Adaptation to Injury
• Cellular adaptations can be induced and/or regulated
at any of a number of regulatory steps including
receptor binding, signal transduction, gene
transcription or protein synthesis
• The most common morphologically apparent
adaptive changes are
– Atrophy (decrease in cell size)
– Hypertrophy (increase in cell size)
– Hyperplasia (increase in cell number)
– Metaplasia (change in cell type)
22. Atrophy
• Atrophy is the shrinkage in cell size by loss of cellular
substance
• With the involvement of a sufficient number of cells,
an entire organ can become atrophic
• Causes of atrophy include decreased workload,
pressure, diminished blood supply or nutrition, loss of
endocrine stimulation, and aging
• Mechanisms of atrophy are not specific, but atrophic
cells usually contain increased autophagic vacuoles
with persistent residual bodies such as lipofuscin
23. Brain Atrophy
For an illustration of an atrophic and normal brain, please
see figure 1-8 of Kumar et al. Robbins Basic Pathology.
7th edition. WB Saunders 2003. ISBN: 0721692745.
24. Hypertrophy
• Hypertrophy is an increase in cell size by gain of
cellular substance
• With the involvement of a sufficient number of cells,
an entire organ can become hypertrophic
• Hypertrophy is caused either by increased functional
demand or by specific endocrine stimulations
• Not only the size, but also the phenotype of individual
cells can be altered in hypertrophy
• With increasing demand, hypertrophy can reach a
limit beyond which degenerative changes and organ
failure can occur
25. Cardiac Hypertrophy
For an illustration of Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy and
a normal heart, please see figure 1.1 of Kumar et al.
Robbins Basic Pathology. 7th edition. WB Saunders
2003. ISBN: 0721692745.
26. Hyperplasia
• Hyperplasia constitutes an increase in the number of
indigenous cells in an organ or tissue
• Pathological hyperplasia if typically the result of
excessive endocrine stimulation
• Hyperplasia is often a predisposing condition to
neoplasia
27. Metaplasia
• Metaplasia is a “reversible” change in which one
adult cell type is replaced by another adult cell type
• Metaplasia is a cellular adaptation in which
indigenous cells are replaced by cells that are better
suited to tolerate a specific abnormal environment
• Because of metaplasia, normal protective
mechanisms may be lost
• Persistence of signals that result in metaplasia often
lead to neoplasia
32. Pathologic Calcification
• Dystrophic calcification is the abnormal deposition of
calcium phosphate in dead or dying tissue
• Dystrophic calcification is an important component of
the pathogenesis of atherosclerotic disease and valvular
heart disease
• Metastatic calcification is calcium deposition in normal
tissues as a consequence of hypercalcemia:
– Increased PTH with subsequent bone resorption
– Bone destruction
– Vitamin D disorders (intoxication, Sarcoidosis, Williams
syndrome)
– Renal failure with 2º PTH
