The document summarizes three Greek stories:
1) The story of Pyramus and Thisbe, whose forbidden love led to their deaths under a mulberry tree, staining its fruit red.
2) The story of Orpheus and Eurydice, where Orpheus' music allowed him to retrieve his wife from the underworld, but she disappeared again when he looked back.
3) The story of Baucis and Philemon, an elderly couple who selflessly sheltered Zeus and Hermes in disguise, and were rewarded by becoming trees that grew together for their hospitality.

James Joyce (1882-1941)
Eveline (1914)
She sat at the window watching the evening invade the avenue. Her head was leaned
against the window curtains and in her nostrils was the odour of dusty cretonne. She was
tired.
Few people passed. The man out of the last house passed on his way home; she heard
his footsteps clacking along the concrete pavement and afterwards crunching on the cinder
path before the new red houses. One time there used to be a field there in which they used to
play every evening with other people's children. Then a man from Belfast bought the field
and built houses in it—not like their little brown houses but bright brick houses with shining
roofs. The children of the avenue used to play together in that field—the Devines, the
Waters, the Dunns, little Keogh the cripple, she and her brothers and sisters. Ernest, however,
never played: he was too grown up. Her father used often to hunt them in out of the field
with his blackthorn stick; but usually little Keogh used to keep nix and call out when he saw
her father coming. Still they seemed to have been rather happy then. Her father was not so
bad then; and besides, her mother was alive. That was a long time ago; she and her brothers
and sisters were all grown up her mother was dead. Tizzie Dunn was dead, too, and the
Waters had gone back to England. Everything changes. Now she was going to go away like
the others, to leave her home.
Home! She looked round the room, reviewing all its familiar objects which she had
dusted once a week for so many years, wondering where on earth all the dust came from.
Perhaps she would never see again those familiar objects from which she had never dreamed
2
of being divided. And yet during all those years she had never found out the name of the
priest whose yellowing photograph hung on the wall above the broken harmonium beside the
coloured print of the promises made to Blessed Margaret Mary Alacoque. He had been a
school friend of her father. Whenever he showed the photograph to a visitor her father used
to pass it with a casual word:
“He is in Melbourne now.”
She had consented to go away, to leave her home. Was that wise? She tried to weigh
each side of the question. In her home anyway she had shelter and food; she had those whom
she had known all her life about her. O course she had to work hard, both in the house and at
business. What would they say of her in the Stores when they found out that she had run
away with a fellow? Say she was a fool, perhaps; and her place would be filled up by
advertisement. Miss Gavan would be glad. She had always had an edge on her, especially
whenever there were people listening.
“Miss Hill, don't you see these ladies are waiting?”
“Look lively, Miss Hill, please.”
She would not cry many tears at leaving the Stores.
But in her new home, in a distant unknown country, it would not be like that. Then
she would be married—she ...
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.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter 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.

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.

1. Three Greek Stories - Pyramus and Thisbe - Orpheus and Eurydice -Baucis and Philemon By Haley Carpenter 5 th Hour, Mr. Patterson
2.
3. A long time ago, mulberries used to be white instead of red. This transformation happened in the form of a sad, romantic tale, where the death of two lovers was the cause.
4. The person on the left is Thisbe, and the person on the right is Pyramus. They lived in Babylon, and they were the most beautiful people in the land. They had grown up together, and soon learned to love each other. But their parents forbade them from marrying, much less even seeing each other.
5. But their love would not die. They found a crack in the wall that their houses shared, and talked to each other every night. Soon, they grew weary of never seeing each other, and planned to run away. They decided to meet by the Tomb of Ninus, by the mulberry tree that produced white fruit.
6. That night, Thisbe stole away to the tree, waiting for her darling Pyramus. But he did not come.
7. Suddenly, a lioness who had just hunted appeared, with blood on her lips. Thisbe ran away in terror, and left her scarf by accident. The lioness gnawed on the scarf, leaving bloodstains.
8. When Pyramus arrived, he was horror-stricken. “The lioness has eaten my darling Thisbe!! .. Well, if she’s dead, I might as well die too.”
9. He pulled out his knife and plunged it into his side, spraying the tree with blood.
10. Thisbe was afraid of the lion, but not as afraid of failing her lover. She returned to find Pyramus dead.
11. She tried to wake him, but it was no use. “Dear Pyramus!! I shall follow in suit!!” she exclaimed as she stabbed herself as well.
12. And thus, the mulberries were stained with lover’s blood, making them forever red. The End.
13.
14. Orpheus was the son of a muse, and a Thracian prince. The Thracians were considered the most musically gifted people, and Orpheus became greatly known as a performer. He went on many adventures, and came with Jason on the Argo and is said to have played so sweetly that he saved them from the Siren’s song.
15. One day, Orpheus met Eurydice, and he fell in love with her. She, of course, could not resist the power of his music and fell in love with him as well.
16. They decided to marry, but on the day of their wedding she got bit by a viper and died. Orpheus swore he would retrieve her from the world of Death with his music.
17. He played so sweetly, that the Underworld stood still to listen to him play. When Persephone, the wife of Hades, heard him play, she cried at its beauty. So Hades decreed that Orpheus could have his wife back, but that he must not look at her until he is out of the Underworld.
18. Orpheus did as he was told, but as soon as he was out of the cave, he swerved around to see his wife. However, she was still in the cavern, and she started to disappear again, only to whisper the words “Farewell.”
19. Afterwards, Orpheus became depressed and never sought the company of women again. He was later disemboweled by a group of Maenads and the Muses gave him a proper burial at the foot of Mt. Olympus. And to this day the nightingales sing sweeter here than anywhere else.
20.
21. Sometimes, Zeus would tire of the Heavens. So he would go down and have little adventures on the Earth, disguised as a human. He usually brought Hermes with him as well, being the crafty fellow he is. One time, they decided to check the hospitality of a city called Phrygia.
22. Although he was disguised as a poor traveler, no one would let them in. The city was prejudice and hated the poor. So Zeus and Hermes marched onwards to find a house that would provide warmth and hospitality, and one after another they were turned down by the rich and the middle class alike.
23. Eventually, he came upon a small hut with a thatched roof. The occupants were a poor, old couple that welcomed in the gods without a moment’s pause.
24. The wife was named Baucis and the husband Philemon, and although they were extremely poor they offered the gods the finest they had. They were happy with themselves at the hospitality they brought, until they noticed the wine and the food never ran out. They immediately realized that they were hosting the gods.
25. “ We- we- we have a goose, we should have served that to your lordships first.” stammered Philemon. They tried, to the amusement of the Gods, to capture the goose, but it was in vain.
26. Finally, Zeus took the tired couple aside and said “You have hosted gods. Your country shall be punished for their incompetence, but you may be rewarded.” And he took them outside and their house became a marvelous temple. “Please, make a wish and I shall grant it.” The couple wished that they could guard the temple and that they die together. “So be it.” exclaimed Zeus.
27. And they guarded the temple for quite some time.. Until eventually they had to die. And when they did, they became two trees, a linden and an oak. But they were still together, for they both grew from the same trunk. To this day, people hang up wreaths on this tree to celebrate the faithful and pious pair.
