The Yas Viceroy Hotel in Abu Dhabi is built across the Formula 1 racetrack and features a futuristic design. It consists of two 12-story towers connected by a glass bridge passing over the track. Notable elements include a 217 meter long steel and glass grid shell canopy covering the towers and bridge, and an LED lighting system that displays videos on the building's exterior surface. The building was designed by Asymptote Architecture to embody influences from both motor racing and Islamic art traditions, and serve as a landmark celebrating Abu Dhabi's culture and technology.

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

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.

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.

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.

Yas Viceroy Abu Dhabi Hotel is built across the F1 Yas Marina Circuit in Abu Dhabi. It is known as one
of the icons of Abu Dhabi and has a very futuristic design.

DESIGN
The hotel consists of two twelve stories towers, one set within the race circuit and the other in the Marina.
They are linked together by a glass and steel bridge that passes above the Formula 1 track. Along with the
Grid-Shell, the bridge connects and merges the whole ensemble. The building doesn’t serve only as a hotel
but also as a landmark for Abu Dhabi. The designers inspired from both local and global, contemporary
styles: the traditional Islamic arts and crafts combined with the forms derived from the F1 car design. The
exterior surface reflects the sky and the surroundings in daytime, whereas in the night is lit by an LED
system that transmits video feeds over the entire building, all of which are incorporated in the Grid-Shell.
4. 4
The Grid-Shell itself is a 217 meter covering of glass and steel. This part of the design stands out by being
the most important aspect of the entire project because it represents the building, it gives it meaning and
signification and, through its out of the ordinary design, lets the building to be seen from a long distance, a
key aspect of the idea that stands in the middle of the concept: the hotel being a landmark. The best part of
this project is the way that that its designers managed to create a structure that represents what they set out to
do. In other words, their concept is very clearly expressed by the hotel’s shape. The curved futuristic shape
along with the modern Grid-Shell express movement and speed, just like an F1 racing car.
DESCRIPTION FROM THE ARCHITECTS:
“The hotel embodies various key influences and inspirations ranging from the aesthetics and forms
associated with speed, movement and spectacle to the artistry and geometries forming the basis of ancient
Islamic art and craft traditions, a perfect union and harmonious interplay between elegance and spectacle.
The search here was inspired by what one could call the ‘art’ and poetics of motor racing, specifically
Formula 1, coupled with the making of a place that celebrates Abu Dhabi as a cultural and technological
tour de force.”

CONSTRUCTION
The Yas Hotel is one of the main architectural features of the ambitious 36-billion-dollar Yas Marina
development and accompanying Formula 1 raceway circuit, also near completion. Asymptote's founders and
partners Hani Rashid and Lise Anne Couture envisioned an architectural landmark embodying various key
influences and inspirations ranging from the aesthetics and forms associated with speed, movement and
spectacle to the artistry and geometries forming the basis of ancient Islamic art and craft traditions.
7. 7
Of architectural and engineering significance is the main feature of the project's design, a 217-meter expanse
of sweeping, curvilinear forms constructed of steel and 5,800 pivoting diamond-shaped glass panels. This
Grid-Shell component affords the building an architecture comprised of an atmospheric-like veil that
contains two hotel towers and a link bridge constructed as a monocoque sculpted steel object passing above
the Formula 1 track that makes its way through the building complex.
8. 8
The Grid-Shell visually connects and fuses the entire complex together while producing optical effects and
spectral reflections that play against the surrounding sky, sea and desert landscape. The architecture as a
whole “performs” as both an environmentally responsive solution as well as an architecture of spectacle and
event. The entire jewel-like composition of the project responds visually and tectonically to its environment
to create a distinct and powerful sense of place as well as a breathtaking backdrop to the Formula 1 and other
events that the building will celebrate. The Yas Hotel is designed to be a significant landmark destination on
Yas Island for Abu Dhabi and the UAE at large.

Hani Rashid describes the building’s design and its architecture as:
“A perfect union and harmonious interplay between elegance and spectacle. The search here was
inspired by what one could call the 'art' and poetics of motor racing, specifically Formula 1, coupled
with the making of a place that celebrates Abu Dhabi as a cultural and technological tour de force.”

HOMESTHETICS CONCLUSION
The hotel impresses because of the bold idea of covering its entire curved surface with LED lighting. Even if
the effects are amazing, the construction process and the maintenance can be a bit tricky especially because
of the natural environment which is not suitable for large glass surfaces due to the imminent danger of sand
storms. The architects have overcome these setbacks anyway and created an architectural object with a
design worthy of representing the wealth of the Arabic country and the tradition of F1 racing.
