What is stress?
Stress is a natural and normal part of human life. It is a physical and emotional response to a perceived threat, danger, or challenge. It can be triggered by a variety of factors, including work pressures, financial problems, relationship issues, health problems, and even positive events such as a wedding or a job promotion.
The body’s response to stress is often referred to as the “fight or flight” response, which is a survival mechanism designed to help humans deal with dangerous or life-threatening situations. When we encounter a perceived threat, our body releases hormones such as adrenaline and cortisol, which cause several physical changes. Our heart rate and blood pressure increase, our breathing becomes more rapid and shallow, and our muscles tense up, preparing us to either fight the threat or run away from it.
While stress can be helpful in small doses, prolonged or chronic stress can hurt our physical and mental health. It can cause a range of symptoms, including headaches, fatigue, difficulty sleeping, digestive problems, and changes in appetite. It can also lead to anxiety, depression, and other mental health issues.
Managing well-being for maintaining overall health and wellbeing well-being. There are a variety of strategies that can be used to reduce stress, including exercise, mindfulness practices, relaxation techniques such as deep breathing and meditation, and seeking support from friends, family, or a mental health professional.
In conclusion, stress is a natural and normal part of life, but it can have negative effects on our physical and mental health if not managed properly.

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.

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

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.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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. DEFINITION
Stress is a physiological and psychological response to challenging
or demanding situations that are perceived as threatening or
difficult to cope with. It is a normal and natural part of life, and can
be helpful in motivating us to achieve our goals or deal with
challenges. However, when stress becomes chronic or
overwhelming, it can have negative effects on both the body and
mind.
3. STATUS OF STRESS IN INDIA
• According to a study by the Indian Psychiatry Society, the prevalence of mental health disorders
in India is estimated to be around 10-20%. Stress is a leading cause of these disorders, and it can
be caused by a variety of factors, including work-related issues, financial pressures, family
problems, and social and cultural changes.
• In recent years, there has been an increased awareness of mental health issues in India, and the
government has taken steps to address the problem. The National Mental Health Survey
conducted in 2015-16 found that the overall burden of mental disorders in India was 2,443
DALYs (disability-adjusted life years) per 100,000 population, which is higher than the global
average of 1,826 DALYs per 100,000 population.

on both the body and mind, and can lead to a variety of physical and mental health
problems. When we experience stress, our body releases hormones such as cortisol
and adrenaline, which prepare us to respond to a perceived threat or challenge.
This is commonly known as the "fight or flight" response. While this response can
be helpful in the short-term, chronic stress can lead to long-lasting changes in our
physiology, which can have negative effects on our health and well-being.
7. IMPORTANT OF STRESS
MANAGEMENT

such as anxiety, depression, and other mood disorders. It can also lead to problems with sleep,
concentration, and decision-making.

mind, and improve our overall health and well-being. This can include techniques such as exercise,

or fail to complete tasks on time. This can lead to feelings of failure, stress, and anxiety.

controlling us rather than the other way around. This can lead to feelings of helplessness
and stress.
