This document summarizes the Irish legend of Setanta, who would come to be known as Cúchulainn. It describes how as a boy, Setanta loved the game of hurling and wanted to join a warrior training school. When he arrived at a feast late, the blacksmith's guard dog attacked him, but Setanta used his hurling skills to kill the dog and save himself. To make up for it, he agreed to take the place of the guard dog until it was replaced, and from then on was known as Cúchulainn, which means "hound of Culann." He grew up to become a great warrior, and his stories and adventures are still told today.

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.

2. All of the most famous Irish myths
and legends were passed down
through the generations by
storytellers before they were ever
written down. This means that
there are lots of different versions
of these tales, as each storyteller
would have told the story a little
differently. This is one such
version of one of the most famous
Irish legends – that of Setanta.
3. Many years ago, there lived
a young boy named Setanta.
He lived in County Louth. He
was brave and strong. He
loved hurling.
Setanta really wanted to go
to a special training school in
Armagh. At this school, boys
were trained to be soldiers.
They were called the Macra.
They played hurling and
other games. They were
trained to fight with toy
swords and spears.
4. The king of Ulster ran the
school. His name was Conor
MacNeasa and he was
Setanta’s uncle. The king
wanted his pupils to grow up
to be great warriors for
Ulster and be part of the Red
Branch Knights.
Setanta was determined to
join the school and he set off
as soon as he could. He took
his shield, a hurling stick and
his sliotar (ball) and began
the long walk to Armagh.
5. When Setanta arrived at the
school, the boys were playing
a game of hurling. Setanta ran
over to join the game. He
didn’t even think to ask the
boys if he could play. Straight
away, Setanta scored a
super goal.
The other boys were cross that
Setanta hadn’t asked to play. Some
of them were jealous of how good
he was at hurling. The boys
attacked Setanta. They threw
spears at him but Setanta used his
shield to save himself. They threw
hurleys at him but Setanta dodged
them. He wouldn’t give up.
6. Setanta was taken to see
King Conor. Conor was
impressed by Setanta and he
agreed that his young
nephew could join the school.
Setanta was delighted!
Setanta loved being a part of
the Macra. He enjoyed all of
the training and still spent a lot
of time playing hurling. One
day, Conor came to collect
Setanta so they could attend a
feast they had been invited to.
Setanta was very involved in a
hurling game so he told his
uncle to go ahead without him.
He said he would join him
when the match was over.
7. King Conor travelled to the
house of his blacksmith, a
man called Culann, for the
feast. Conor was supposed to
tell Culann that Setanta would
be arriving late, but he forgot!
Culann released his fierce
wolfhound to guard the house
and his guests.
When the hurling match was
over, Setanta set off for the
feast, swinging his hurley as
he went. As he arrived at
Culann’s house, the guard
dog sprang at him from the
shadows!
8. Setanta had no time to think –
with all his strength, he
smacked the sliotar with his
hurley. As the snarling dog
leapt at Setanta, the ball flew
into his open mouth and
wedged in his throat! The
hound fell down dead at a
shocked Setanta’s feet.
Inside the house, King Conor
heard the furious barking from
outside. He gasped, “Oh no! I
forgot about Setanta. Your dog will
kill him!” Everyone rushed outside.
They could scarcely believe it
when they saw Setanta standing
over the body of
the dog.
9. Conor was happy and
relieved to see that Setanta
was safe. Poor Culann ran to
his dog. He told everyone that
the animal had been a loyal
and faithful hound and an
excellent guard dog.
Setanta felt bad about what
had happened. He told Culann
that he would take the place of
the guard dog until one of his
pups could be trained. From
that day on, Setanta was
known by a new name,
‘Cúchulainn’. The name
means ‘the hound
of Culann’.
10. Cúchulainn grew up to be a
great and mighty warrior. He
had many adventures and
battles. Stories about him are
still told today.
