The student created a TV ident for "The Grid" channel in Adobe After Effects over several lessons. In the first lesson, they added a plate texture background and created text using the Rockwell font. Effects were added to the text including glow and blur. In later lessons, the student added lighting and shadows to add depth, implemented camera motion using keyframes, and changed the background to moving stars for more inspiration. They then expanded the ident by adding a second composition with schedule information.
An assessment of the Ataturk Airport terrorist attack on 28 June, 2016:
"The terror attack at Ataturk Airport was an act of sophisticated urban guerrilla warfare, requiring close coordination and planning ... Historically speaking, terrorists armed with SVIED have blown their suicide vests at the first instance of getting confronted by security personnel, explaining why many such attacks happen on the outer security perimeter of intended targets. That was not the case at Ataturk Airport on the night of 28 June."

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.

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.

Unit 32 diary
1. Unit 32 Diary
7th November 2012
What I hope to achieve today: I hope to have started on my TV ident in adobe after effects
this includes standard background, text, and timeline set-up.
What I actually achieved this lesson:
To start off I had to create something that is called a wall texture this will basically be the
background that the rest of the animation sits on. I got this image of a plate texture off
Google images and added it to my resources; I then imported the image onto the stage of
my composition by dragging and dropping.
I then added a text layer to my composition this was done by right clicking and selecting
NEW > TEXT. A text box would then appear I then typed in my channels name which is
‘THE GRID’, the font in which I decided to use is
Rockwell Extra Bold this is because it fits in well
with the style of the channel and is also a very
bold style which is needed for the animation that
I am going to start creating, I have not decided
on the final colour for my text so right now I will
2. keep it at a basic white colour.
I then went ahead of my sqeduele and added a blur and
glow effect to my text making it look really nice and flashy
and will in turn fit in with the animation, a little bit more of
tweaking will be needed on the text but I will do that in my
spare time to just get it right, to add a glow effect I needed
to first click on the layer of text which selects it and then go
to EFFECTS > STYLISE > GLOW a box would then appear
showing all the different values for tweaking. I Changed the
intensity of the glow to 50% to stand out and become eye
catching to the viewer. The option for the blur effect uses
the same process and is located under EFFECT > BLUR &
SHARPEN > LENS BLUR another box opened and this
allowed me to change values to what suited me.
The end result of the changes I have made look something
like this;

What I hope to achieve today: I hope to add lighting to my ident, start on creating motion and
adding shadow.
What I have achieved this lesson:
In today lesson I started off by adding lighting to my ident this is done by right clicking and clicking
on new light this then opens these options onto the stage;
In these settings everything is kept at its
defaults as tweaking it any more can create
problems for me further into the project. The
only option that I tweaked was ticking the box
‘Casts Shadows’, this makes the whole
animation look a lot better as it is played and
adds more depth and atmospheric feel to the
ident. Below is how the light tool is used on the
ident it is primarily created to add the sense of
a 3D feel and making it seem more
professionally done, the atmosphere that you
get by just looking at the image is a sort of dark
spooky feel, example being walking through the
streets at night and seeing the street lightings
being beamed into one spot while the rest is in
complete darkness. The look of this ident could
also be associated with crime.
4. To create shadows on my ident I would have to tweak an option in the layers of the background
and the text, this would in turn add a better effect to the lighting. To do this I needed to click on
my text layer which selects it and then clicking on the drop down button on the layer which brings
something like this up;
I then needed to click on the drop down on material options and setting Casts Shadows to ‘ON’ I
would do this on both the text layer and the background layer. After selecting this no shadows
were appearing this is because I then needed to drag out the shadows on the ident this was done
by selecting the background layer and dragging it out using the X,Y,Z tool, once this was done the
shadows then appeared on the ident thus making it look more 3D. The ident looks like this;
21st November 2012
What I hope to achieve today: I will add the camera tool to my ident to create motion.
What I have achieved this lesson:
To add a camera to the ident I needed to first add it onto my layers this is done by selecting LAYER
> NEW > CAMERA, it will then come up with a box looking like this;
5. Everything should be left at its default so you just click on ‘OK’ then I needed to change how the
camera works on the ident I did this by going to Unified camera tool and changing it to orbit
camera tool which is located in the top left of the screen it should look like this;
Now that I have the camera in the position I want it to be in I now have to create motion, the way
in which I create motion is to first put the camera tool into a position that I think will look
appropriate I then had to insert a key frame into the timeline on the starting position, then I had
to drag the slider on the timeline to 6 seconds and create yet another key frame, this would then
add a tween that would link the two key frames together and create a basic animation.
After this had been done I decided that the
overall look of the ident didn’t really suit the
style that the channel was looking for, so I
decided to make a quick change to the
background, this was done by changing the
simulation to CC Star Burst that is found in the
effects part of the software, this changed the
grid background into moving animated stars
that zoom past the title, I thought this looked
a lot better and gave me more inspiration to
make this look a lot more better.
6. 28th November 2012
What I hope to achieve today: Expand on my new idea for the grid ident.
What I have achieved this lesson:
Now that I had created the first part of my ident I then had to add in the second part which would
broadcast the shows times, names etc. I first started off by creating a new composition which was
done by simply creating a new composition, I then have to add a black solid form for the
background of the second part of the ident, this was simply done by going to LAYER > NEW >
SOLID I made the solid black in colour. I then had to add another animation to the ident, this
animation was called Particle systems II and made a sort of spark effect. I had now finished my
ident. Text for the second part of the ident would be entered in a video editor to save a lot of
time, and make it easier to manage. But I also added the title and the channel heading as it would
look less blurry on the final product
.
