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.

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.

Technology
1.
2. Film and New Technology
As with any business, the film industry relies on
technological advances to facilitate production
and distribution of the product. Digital
technologies and the convergence of
communication and information technologies
promise to play important roles in marketing and
exhibition. Digital technology is literally changing
films themselves, as well as circumstances of
their consumption
3. The Numbers in a nutshell
Early film exhibitors created beautiful movie places for audiences to watch
movies in high style
Now a days exhibitors have embraced the old and new technologies from
3D and IMAX to DVD and blu-ray, to cable TV and streaming.
Until the advent of TV in the 50’s and VHS in the 70’s the cinema was the
only place you could watch a Hollywood film
In 1946 the average American film goers saw 29 films a year – in 2007 that
had dropped to 8
Studios have learned how to diversify and capitalize on each new
development by selling network broadcast rights to their films and
repackaging them for DVD and Blu-ray.
In 2009 DVD market accounted for 65% of the major film companies
revenues
Theatrical release accounted for 35%
4.
5. Blu-Ray
Officially designated as the successor to the DVD
Blu-ray uses a blue-violet rather than a red laser to record data (hence
the name)
The blue laser shorter wavelength offers more precise focus allowing the
data to be packed more tightly and can hold up to 6 times more than a
DVD.
Blu-ray has better sound and visual quality than the DVD but also offers
greater interactivity.
In 2007 ‘Cars’ allowed viewers to play a game called ‘car finder’ where
players spot various makes and models of cars which appear
throughout the movie
In 2009 Universal announced that upcoming releases will be able to
use the iPhone as a remote and keyboard and update facebook and
twitter through their blue-ray players.
6. For and Against DVD
Good points for DVD & Blu Ray Bad points for DVD & Blu Ray
• Sales go up • Viewers think of DVD as
• More scope to sell a film collectable items in
multiple times connection to celebrated
• Can re-sell collectable personalities
items • Force directors to
• DVDs hold hours of data compromise
• Better interactivity • The film ‘experience’ is
being compromised
• Greater quality at home
• Greater home experience
7. Film and digital technology
Digital technologies
have transformed the
film business, from
production to
distribution to exhibition
In 2007 Slumdog millionaire
became the first film shot in
predominantly digital format
to win an Oscar for best
cinematography
Moreover new technology has allowed for the resurgence of 3D which has
proved to be extremely popular.
8. In terms of Home exhibition DVD players and Television are no longer the only
hardware to view films. Personal computers provide an array of viewing
experiences . Beyond playing DVD computers grant access to trailers and full
length films on the web
Initially the internet was used as a marketing tool for films but its role in film
culture continues to evolve.
The Blair Witch Project was one of the first films to capitalize on the Internet
9.
10. The quality of new technologies are allowing web users to download full
length films as digital files making the quality just as good as in the cinema
Film corporations have responded to the treat of digital piracy by raising
technological barriers against duplication and by pursuing legal action
against unauthorised downloading
Piracy is one of the reasons behind shorter periods between theatrical
release and DVD sales.
The digital era has transformed many aspects of film culture. Hollywood
had one of the most profitable years ever in 2009, but the tension
surrounding theatrical release verses Blu-ray and DVD, not to mention live
streaming will remain.
Warner Bros.'sThe Jazz Singer, presents the movie's first spoken words: "Wait a minute, wait a minute, you ain't heard nothin' yet." The Vitaphone method that the studio uses involves recording sound on discs.
