Unification vs. Geometrization Reichenbach and Einstein's Fernparallelismus-F...MarcoGiovanelli3
This paper reconstructs the 1928-1929 correspondence between Reichenbach and Einstein about the latter's latest distant parallelism-unified field theory, which attracted considerable public attention at the end of the 1920s. Reichenbach, who had recently become a Professor in Berlin, had the opportunity to discuss the theory with Einstein and therefore sent him a manuscript with some comments for feedback. The document has been preserved among Einstein's papers. However, the subsequent correspondence took an unpleasant turn after Reichenbach published a popular article on distant parallelism in : newspaper. Einstein directly wrote to the Editorial Board complaining about Reichenbach's unfair use of off-the-record information. While Reichenbach's reply demonstrates a sense of personal betrayal at Einstein's behavior, his published writings of that period point to a sense of intellectual betrayal of their shared philosophical ideals. In his attempts to unify both electricity and gravitation, Einstein had abandoned the physical heuristic that guided him to the relativity theory, to embrace a more speculative, mathematical heuristic that he and Reichenbach had both previously condemned. A decade-long personal and intellectual friendship grew fainter and then never recovered. In addition to Giovanelli, 2016a, this study, relying on archival material, aims to revisit the Reichenbach-Einstein relationship in the late 1920s in light of Reichenbach's neglected contributions to the epistemology of the unified field theory program. Thus, this study hopes to provide a richer account of Reichenbach's philosophy of space and time.
Albert’s class was on the history teacher Mr. Braun asked Albert if the Prussians defeated the French to Waterloo. Albert told him that he didn’t know and he must have forgotten. This irritated the teacher. He asked Albert, why? Albert replied that he didn’t see a point in learning dates. One could learn about them from books. Ideas are more important than facts and figures. The teacher attributed to Albert that he didn’t believe in education. He talked in a sarcastic manner. Albert told him that education should be about ideas and not facts. The teacher said that Albert was a disgrace to be there Albert felt miserable when he left the school that afternoon.
He didn’t like this school. He would have to come to it again. He lived in a small room. It was one of the poorest quarters of Munich. The landlady beat her children regularly. Her husband came every Saturday and drank in the evening. He then beat her. He didn’t like the children’s crying every time. He told these things to Yuri. He hated the atmosphere of slum violence. Next time his cousin [elsa] came to Munich. She told Albert that if he tried he could pass the examination. There were more stupid boys than him. Moreover, passing the examination was not difficult. It was simply just to be able to repeat in the examination that Elsa that he was not good at learning things by heart. He liked music as it gave him comfort. Albert didn’t like to remain in school. He met Yuri after six months. He had an idea. He told Yuri that if he had a medical certificate that he suffered from a nervous breakdown, he could get rid of school. He asked Yuri if he had a doctor friend. Yuri told him that he had in Dr. Ernest Weil. However, Yuri told him not to deceive him. He must be frank with him. When Albert visited Dr. Ernest Weil he had really come near a nervous breakdown. Dr. Ernest issued him the certificate. His fees were that he should serve Yuri with a meal. Albert told Dr. Ernest about his future plans.
He would go to Milan. He hoped to get admission into an Italian college or institute. It was possible from the comments of the Mathematics teacher, Mr. Koch. Yuri told him to get a reference in writing from the Mathematics teacher before going to the head teacher. Mr. Koch, the mathematics teacher encouraged him.

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.

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.

2. Albert Einstein (/ˈælbərt ˈaɪnstaɪn/; German: [ˈalbɐt
ˈaɪnʃtaɪn] ( listen); 14 March 1879 – 18 April 1955) was
a German-born theoretical physicist. He developed
the general theory of relativity, one of the two pillars
of modern physics (alongside quantum
mechanics).[2][3] He is best known in popular culture for
his mass–energy equivalence formula E = mc2 (which
has been dubbed "the world's most famous
equation").[4] He received the 1921 Nobel Prize in
Physics "for his services to theoretical physics, and
especially for his discovery of the law of
the photoelectric effect".[5] The latter was pivotal in
establishing quantum theory
3.
4. Near the beginning of his career, Einstein thought that Newtonian mechanics was no longer
enough to reconcile the laws of classical mechanics with the laws of the electromagnetic field.
This led to the development of his special theory of relativity. He realized, however, that the
principle of relativity could also be extended to gravitational fields, and with his subsequent
theory of gravitation in 1916, he published a paper on the general theory of relativity. He
continued to deal with problems of statistical mechanics and quantum theory, which led to his
explanations of particle theory and the motion of molecules. He also investigated the thermal
properties of light which laid the foundation of the photon theory of light. In 1917, Einstein
applied the general theory of relativity to model the large-scale structure of the universe
5. He was visiting the United States when Adolf Hitler came to power in 1933 and, being
Jewish, did not go back to Germany, where he had been a professor at the Berlin
Academy of Sciences. He settled in the U.S., becoming an American citizen in 1940.[7] On
the eve of World War II, he endorsed a letter to President Franklin D. Roosevelt alerting
him to the potential development of "extremely powerful bombs of a new type" and
recommending that the U.S. begin similar research. This eventually led to what would
become the Manhattan Project. Einstein supported defending the Allied forces, but
largely denounced the idea of using the newly discovered nuclear fission as a weapon.
Later, with the British philosopher Bertrand Russell, Einstein signed the Russell–Einstein
Manifesto, which highlighted the danger of nuclear weapons. Einstein was affiliated with
the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey, until his death in 1955

Einstein published more than 300 scientific papers along with over 150 non-
scientific works.[6][8] His great intellectual achievements and originality have
made the word "Einstein" synonymous with genius
7.
8. • Isaac Newton PRS MP (/ˈnjuːtən/;[8] 25 December
1642 – 20 March 1727[1]) was an
English physicist and mathematician (described in his
own day as a "natural philosopher") who is widely
recognised as one of the most influential scientists of
all time and as a key figure in the scientific revolution.
His book Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia
Mathematica ("Mathematical Principles of Natural
Philosophy"), first published in 1687, laid the
foundations forclassical mechanics. Newton also made
seminal contributions to optics and shares credit
with Gottfried Leibniz for the invention of calculus
9. Newton's Principia formulated the laws of motion and universal gravitation, which
dominated scientists' view of the physical universe for the next three centuries. By
deriving Kepler's laws of planetary motion from his mathematical description of
gravity, and then using the same principles to account for the trajectories of comets,
the tides, the precession of the equinoxes, and other phenomena, Newton removed
the last doubts about the validity of theheliocentric model of the cosmos. This work
also demonstrated that the motion of objects on Earth and of celestial bodies could
be described by the same principles. His prediction that the Earth should be shaped
as an oblate spheroid was later vindicated by the measurements of Maupertuis, La
Condamine, and others, which helped convince most Continental Europeanscientists
of the superiority of Newtonian mechanics over the earlier system ofDescartes
10. Newton also built the first practical reflecting telescope and developed a theory of colour
based on the observation that a prism decomposes white light into the many colours of
the visible spectrum. He formulated an empirical law of cooling, studied the speed of sound,
and introduced the notion of a Newtonian fluid. In addition to his work on calculus, as a
mathematician Newton contributed to the study of power series, generalised the binomial
theorem to non-integer exponents, and developed Newton's method for approximating
the roots of a function
11. • Newton was a fellow of Trinity College and the
second Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at the University
of Cambridge. He was a devout but unorthodox Christian
and, unusually for a member of the Cambridge faculty of
the day, he refused to take holy orders in the Church of
England, perhaps because he privately rejected the
doctrine of the Trinity. Beyond his work on the
mathematical sciences, Newton dedicated much of his time
to the study ofbiblical chronology and alchemy, but most of
his work in those areas remained unpublished until long
after his death. In his later life, Newton became president
of the Royal Society. He also served the British government
as Warden and Master of the Royal Mint.

13. Stephen William Hawking CH CBE FRS FRSA (/ˈstiːvən ˈhɔːkɪŋ/; born 8 January 1942) is an
English theoretical physicist, cosmologist, author and Director of Research at theCentre for
Theoretical Cosmology within the University of Cambridge.[14][15] Among his significant
scientific works have been a collaboration with Roger Penrose on gravitational singularity
theorems in the framework of general relativity, and the theoretical prediction that black
holes emit radiation, often called Hawking radiation. Hawking was the first to set forth a
cosmology explained by a union of the general theory of relativity and quantum
mechanics. He is a vocal supporter of the many-worlds interpretation of quantum
mechanics
14. • Hawking is an Honorary Fellow of the Royal
Society of Arts, a lifetime member of
the Pontifical Academy of Sciences, and a
recipient of the Presidential Medal of
Freedom, the highest civilian award in the
United States. Hawking was the Lucasian
Professor of Mathematics at the University of
Cambridge between 1979 and 2009.
