The document discusses sinusitis, which is an infection or inflammation of the paranasal sinuses. The paranasal sinuses are hollow air spaces located around the eyes, nose, cheeks and forehead. Sinusitis is usually caused by a cold or allergies and can be either acute (lasting less than 4 weeks) or chronic (lasting more than 12 weeks). Common symptoms include nasal congestion, facial pain and pressure, and nasal drainage. Treatment involves medications like antibiotics, decongestants, analgesics and corticosteroids. Surgery may be required in some severe cases.
Sinusitis is an inflammation or swelling of the tissue lining the sinuses. Healthy sinuses are filled with air. But when they become blocked and filled with fluid, germs can grow and cause an infection.

Tonsillitis is inflammation of the tonsils, two oval-shaped pads of tissue at the back of the throat — one tonsil on each side. Signs and symptoms of tonsillitis include swollen tonsils, sore throat, difficulty swallowing and tender lymph nodes on the sides of the neck
Ototoxicity is, quite simply, ear poisoning (oto = ear, toxicity = poisoning), which results from exposure to drugs or chemicals that damage the inner ear or the vestibulo-cochlear nerve (the nerve sending balance and hearing information from the inner ear to the brain).

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.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.

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.

2. Hollow spaces in the bone of our face and skull
Connect with nose through small opening
Like the nose, they are lined with membrane that
make mucus
frontal sinuses ~ over eyes in brow area
maxillary sinuses ~ inside each cheekbone
ethmoid sinuses ~ just behind the bridge of the
nose & between the eyes
sphenoid sinuses ~ behind the ethmoids in the
upper region of the nose and
behind the eyes
3.
4. Infection or inflammation of one or more of the
paranasal sinuses
Sinusitis is usually preceded by a cold, allergy
attack or irritation from environmental
pollutants
5. You can have sinusitis that lasts a long time called
chronic sinusitis.
Short attacks that last for four weeks or less are
called acute sinusitis.
Bacterial and viral acute sinusitis are difficult to
distinguish.
However, if symptoms last less than 10 days, it is
generally considered viral sinusitis.
When symptoms last more than 10 days, it is
considered bacterial sinusitis (usually 30% to 50%
are bacterial sinusitis)
8. Viruses
Immune system problems
Structural problems in the
nasal cavities
9. Colds and Flu
An irritation in the sinuses :-result of
extreme weather changes and poor
air quality (smoke, dust and other
air pollutants).
Asthma sufferers:-more prone to this
condition
10. “Many people enjoy the fall season, when
the leaves start to change colors, but
others suffer from cold and flu-like
symptoms that they can't get rid of. When
your face still hurts, your nose is still
stuffy and you still have a cough weeks
later, you could have sinusitis”
11. Sinuses are normally lined by
ciliated, pseudostratified
columnar
epithelium, interspread with
mucus-secreating cells.
12. Blockage of OMC
Mucusal congestion or anatomic
obstruction blocks airflow and drainage.
The secreations become stagnant and
thicken within the sinuse cavities.
Bacterial colonization and initiation of
mucusal gas metabolism exchange pH and lowered
oxygen tension
Normally cilia
Cilia damaged clean mucus and
air toward the
OMC ostia
Inflammation and bacterial infection
develop in the sinus cavity
13. Sinusitis occurs because of a vicious cycle that
lead to further mucosal thickening and
edema, creating further blockage.
14. Failure of normal mucus transport
Mucosal edema
Bacterial or viral infections
Allergic rhinitis
Dental infections
Immunodeficiency states
Nasal dryness
Anatomic variations – deviated septum and
turbinate hypertrophy

18. Nasal obstruction (most common symptom)
Pain, tenderness, swelling and pressure over
sinus areas
(near the nose, above the teeth, the forehead)
Purulent or non-purulent nasal drainage
Either rhinorrhea or post-nasal drip
Hyposmia/anosmia
Facial congestion/fullness
Fever

20. Halitosis
Cough, especially at night
Sore throat (nasal drainage irritate the throat)
Fatigue
Malaise - feeling generally unwell
Painful headache when wake up in the
morning and when bend the head down or
forward
Aching in the upper jaw and teeth
21. Also known as rhinosinusitis
Lasting >12 weeks
Includes two or more major symptoms
Or at least one major and two minor symptoms
With or without findings on physical examination

Chronic sinusitis. Acute sinusitis may be a flare-up of a long-term
problem known as chronic sinusitis. Chronic sinusitis is sinusitis
that lasts longer than eight weeks.
Meningitis. This occurs when infection spreads to the lining of the
brain.
Vision problems. If infection spreads to your eye socket, it can
cause reduced vision or even blindness. This is a medical
emergency that requires immediate treatment to prevent
potentially permanent damage.
Aneurysms or blood clots. Infection can cause problems in the
veins surrounding the sinuses, interfering with blood supply to
your brain and putting you at risk of a stroke.
Ear infection. Acute sinusitis may occur along with an ear
infection.

26. Erosion of the thinning of the bone between the
brain and the sinuses or the eye and the sinuses
can occur if the infection is prolonged.
Blocked sinuses form mucus and enlarged
become mucocoele (mucus filled cyst)
-headaches, double vision
Sinus infection may spread bacteria into blood
stream and cause sepsis (systemic blood borne
infection)- make high fever and renal failure
27. Keep your nose as moist as possible with frequent use of saline
sprays or washes.
Avoid very dry indoor environments and use a humidifier, if
necessary. Be aware, however, that a humid environment also
may increase the amount of dust mite, or allergens in your home.
this is important only if you are allergic to any of those organisms.
Avoid exposure to irritants such as cigarette and cigar smoke or
strong odors from chemicals.
Avoid exposure to substances to which you are allergic.
If you haven’t been tested for allergies and you are getting
frequent sinus infections, ask your healthcare professional to give
you an allergy evaluation or refer you to an allergy specialist.
Avoid long periods of swimming in pools treated with
chlorine, which can irritate the lining of the nose and sinuses.
Avoid water diving, which forces water into the sinuses from the
nasal passages.
