Students participate in English Camp at Humphreys

CAMP HUMPHREYS – Participants in the United States Forces Korea Good Neighbor English Camp visited here, May 17. This camp aims to give standout Korean students a better grasp of the English language and American life, while strengthening U.S.-Korea relations.
More than 60 students attended the camp, and while here they played basketball, did pull-ups, received climbing instruction and visited the Humphreys airfield. Attendees reported that the camp was time well spent.
“This was a worthwhile experience,” said Sim, Yun-ji, a student at Gunam Health High School. “This gives us all a chance to strengthen our English skills and have a lot of fun with our fellow students and the Americans.”
While the overall camp lasted only the three days, the benefits will endure, Sim noted.
“I am studying to become a nurse and the camp helped with that goal,” Sim said. “I will not forget the good times and good friends from this camp.”
Yoon, Hyun-gyu, an intern who works in the Humphreys Directorate of Plans, Training, Mobilization and Security office, helped with the camp. He said the focus was on language and on U.S. culture.
“This is an opportunity for the campers to get a good foundation on American life and the English language. This will help them in the future,” Yoon said.
The campers were housed by U.S. families in the Yongsan Garrison.
“That helps us understand American culture and get some good American food,” said Lee, Jin-hee from Dongil High School.
“Thanks to the English Camp, I understand the language and the culture better than I did before,” added Kim, Min-seung from Daegu Gyeong Sin High School. “I am taking a lot of good information away from this camp. I thank Camp Humphreys and the host families for putting this on.”
Just an experiment in making CC flashcards for the Welsh language that people can print via Moo. This is my proof of concept, but the resolution is too low and there's no bleed, so it won't work when printed onto a Moo business card. But you get the general idea of what I'm trying to do!

Stickers are an essential part of the street art movement. Inexpensive and easy to produce, they act as a kind of informal business card for some graffiti writers, and a quick and effective promotional tool for many artists and illustrators. As more and more stickers are placed around major cities in the world, interest in the subject keeps growing.
Stickers have been the subject of many street art publications to date, but most of these are collections of photographs of stickers spotted in urban environments. These books are missing the fundamental fun of stickers – the fun of peeling and sticking, and of owning and collecting cool stickers.
This collectable, fully-peelable sticker book featuring illustration, graffiti and graphics, is filled with an amazing collection of more than 250 specially-commissioned stickers by artists, illustrators and graffiti writers from around the world, many of whom have not been featured in a publication before. It will appeal to a young market of designers, street artists and illustrators, plus street art fans and anyone who collects stickers.

So apparently when both a French language ingredient list and nutritional information are required by law, the language requirement trumps the nutritional info, as evidenced by the French sticker covering up the latter.
Even in a province where nutritional info is about a million times more relevant to the general population than French.
This pisses me off SO much.

dress rehersal. last chance to confront myself with death, before my parents are going to die, at some point in the future. interesting to find out something more concrete about this dirty little secret. about dying. this abstract word: death. this thing that people do behind closed doors. everyone for himself.
it'll happen to me. -sometimes i can't wait for the day, sometimes i'm kinda scared, sometimes i think, i've seen enough, i'd be happy if it happened today, although i'd have another 64 years to go, before i'm 94.

There are at least 7,102 known languages alive in the world today. Twenty-three of these languages are a mother tongue for more than 50 million people. The 23 languages make up the native tongue of 4.1 billion people. We represent each language within black borders and then provide the numbers of native speakers (in millions) by country. The colour of these countries shows how languages have taken root in many different regions.
Bologna or Bulåggna; pronounced [buˈləɲɲa] in the Bolognese dialect of Emiliano-Romagnolo language) is the capital city of Emilia-Romagna, in the Po Valley of Northern Italy. The city lies between the Po River and the Apennine Mountains, more specifically, between the Reno River and the Savena River. It is the seventh largest city in terms of population and it is the heart of a metropolitan area (officially recognized by the Italian government as a metropolitan city) of about 1,000,000 inhabitants. The urban sprawl of Bologna – Modena, whose metropolises are adjoining, is continuously expanding. Home to the oldest university in the world, University of Bologna, founded in 1088, Bologna hosts numerous students who enrich the social and cultural life of the city. Famous for its towers and lengthy porticoes, it has a well-preserved historical downtown (one of the largest in Italy) thanks to a careful restoration and conservation policy which began at the end of the 1970s, on the heels of serious damage done by the urban demolition at the end of the 19th century as well as that caused by wars. The city, the first settlements of which date back to at least one millennium before Christ, has always been an important urban center, first under the Etruscans (Velzna/Felsina) and the Celts (Bona), then under the Romans (Bononia), then again in the Middle Ages, as a free municipality (for one century it was the fifth largest European city based on population). An important cultural and artistic center, it is rarely recognized as such, as it does not possess a world renowned "masterpiece" that would attract tourists en masse; that having been said, its artistic importance and its importance in terms of landmarks can be contributed to homogenous mixture of monuments and architectural examples (medieval towers, antique buildings, churches, the layout of its historical center) as well as works of art which are the result of a first class architectural and artistic history. Bologna is also an important crossroads of the roads and trains of Northern Italy, where many important mechanical, electronic and nutritional industries have their headquarters. According to the most recent data gathered by the European Regional Economic Growth Index (E-REGI) of 2009, Bologna is the first Italian city and the 47th European city in terms of its economic growth rate.[2] It is home to prestigious cultural, economic and political institutions as well as one of the most impressive trade fair districts in Europe. In 2000 it was declared European capital of culture[3] and in 2006, a UNESCO “city of music”. The city of Bologna was selected to participate in the Universal Exposition of Shanghai 2010 together with 45 other cities from around the world.[4] Bologna is also one of the richest cities in Italy, often ranking as one of the top cities in terms of quality of life in the country: it was ranked 5th in 2006, and 12th in 2007, out of 103 Italian cities.[5] Bologna is a lively and cosmopolitan Italian college city, and it has spectacular history, art, cuisine, music and culture.

There’s a sequel, there’s a prequel, why not an interquel? Turns out there is. It’s just that dictionaries haven’t picked up on the word yet. An interquel bridges the time gap in a story in two published works.
And so it goes. If you can think of something, you can think of a word for it.
This week we have rounded up five words that bridge the gaps in the language. Words that may make you say: I didn’t know there was a word for it!
Today's word is felix culpa, from Latin felix culpa (happy fault). Earliest documented use: 1913. A related word is serendipity.
Notes: Felix culpa is also known as a fortunate fall or happy accident. In Christianity, the fall of Adam and Eve is seen as a felix culpa since it resulted in the coming of Christ. What felix culpa have you experienced in your life? Share it below or email us at words@wordsmith.org.

Uthayan ~ Tamil language daily newspaper was started in 1985 in Jaffna, North of Sri Lanka .
A protest was organised by Free Media Movement (FMM), Sri Lanka Tamil Media Alliance (SLTMA), Sri Lanka Muslim Media Forum (SLMMF), Sri Lanka Working Journalists Association (SLWJA), Federation of Media Employees Trade Union (SLMETU),Media Movement for Democracy (MMD) and South Asia Free Media Association (SAFMA).Nearly 47 journalists from Colombo traveled to Jaffna by A9 highway to show solidarity. They condemned the brutal assault by protesting in front of the Sri Lanka Transport Board bus stand in Jaffna on 16th of August 2011. It was a rare protest for the Peninsula people to witness. “ஏதாவது பிரச்சினையோ?” ~ “Is there any problem?”, “என்ன பிரச்சினை?” ~ “What is the problem?”, “இங்கை என்ன நடக்குது?” ~ “What is happening here?” a few onlookers, passers ~ by and shop keepers asked me while the protest was getting underway on a balmy day in Jaffna. “இங்கை உண்மையா என்ன நடக்குது? ~ “What is actually happening here” asked the owner of a newly built restaurant, while I was running to the restaurant roof top to capture the moments on my camera.
There was chaos as the protesters arrived in Jaffna town with placards in Tamil. Police in the vicinity came closer and asked them not to block the traffic. Verbal argument took place between the Police and the protesters. But the protesters kept chanting and walking. The traffic came to a standstill for a couple of moments, as the protesters took the space on the mot busiest road in Jaffna, the Hospital road while carrying the placards in Tamil ~ “யாழ்ப்பாண ஊடகவியலாளர்களுக்கு யார் பாதுகாப்பு?” ~ “Who is responsible for the lives of the journalists in Jaffna?”, “ஊடக சுதந்திரம் பாதுகாக்கப்பட வேண்டும்” ~ “Media freedom needs to be protected”, “எப்போ முடியும் யாழ்ப்பாணத்தில் அடக்குமுறைகள்?” ~ “When will the suppression come to an end in Jaffna?”, “ஊடக சுதந்திரத்தைப் பாதுகாக்க ஒன்றுபடுவோம்” ~ Let’s unite to protect media freedom”, “குகநாதனுக்கு விழுந்த அடி உண்மைக்கு விழுந்த பேரிடி”~ Assault on Kuganathan is an assault on the Truth, “ஊடகத்துறைக்கு எதிரான அடக்குமுறையை ஒழிப்போம்” ~ Eradicate Suppression Against the Media” “ஊடகத்தின் மீதான தாக்குதலை உடனே நிறுத்து” ~ “Stop Attacking the Media Immediately”, “ஜனநாயகத்தின் குரலை ஒடுக்காதே” ~ “Don’t Suppress the voice of Democracy”, “தேர்தலில் தோற்றவர்களா மண்டையைப் பிளந்தார்கள்?” ~ “Did they split the head those who lost the elections?”
The protesters chanted “Let Us Write”,“Continue; Continue; Continue to Write”,“Do Not Kill; Do Not Kill; Do Not Kill Us; Do Not Kill the Journalists, Do Not Kill the Democracy”,“Uthyan was attacked, but nobody was arrested”, “Bring the culprit to the courts”“Do Not Attack; Do Not Attack; Do Not Attack the Media”, “Take Your Hands Off Media”“Stop; Stop; Stop the Suppression” “Kuganathan; Kuganthan who wrote the plight of the people”, “Kuganathan was attacked with Iron rods”,“Kuganathan; Kuganathan; Keep Writing, “Lift the Emergency Immediately” in Tamil and Sinhala. There were nearly 350 journalists, activists and politicians participated in the protest according to the organisers.

The coy black shoes stood right in the middle yet too timid to take ths spotlight awkwardly spoke to the bold red slip ons. The Hawaii chaps couldnt care much, they were so high on life and the buzz of music, the people, the rush of the chatter, they walked from a pair of footwear to another. The khakhi floaters stuck to the corner, not belonging to the event in attitude. The unlaced shoe sort of lost, spent most of the evening feeling very incomplete.
Such is the life of shoes these days. Wonder what takes place in the minds of the wearers.
