Chinese language teachers take notice: www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZzIVdg3A1A This is an August 10, 2010 video with good audio quality on plainclothes police stopping democratic activist Ai Weiwei from filing a complaint for the beating he received from Chengdu police on August 10, 2009 during the trial of Tan Zuoren. Good for classroom instruction.
"Reflections on the August 10th incident:
1. The legal organs of the government are a mess through and through.
2. The police, procuratorate, and courts have lost confidence in themselves . Don't expect fair treatment from an illegitimate regime.
3. The Chengdu police got a scare.
4. Chengdu police personnel all recognize Ai Wewei.
Ai Weiwei made these comments on his Twitter account www.twitter.com/aiww
The story is of a girl named Haru, a quiet, shy and unassuming high school student who has a suppressed ability to talk with cats. One day, she saves a darkly-colored, odd-eyed cat from being hit by a truck on a busy road. The cat is Lune, Prince of the Cat Kingdom. As thanks, the cats give Haru gifts of catnip and mice, and she is offered the Prince's hand in marriage.
A man looks on but ignores the cries of "Help! / Hilfe! / Aiuto! / ¡Ayúdame! / ¡Socorro! / ¡Auxilio!" from a fellow overweight Motorcaravaner stuck in his side locker box.
Motorcaravans from all corners of Europe are parked here on a public street in Southern Spain.

‘If you want to enter into their world, you should understand and know their language’-
This is an old saying about children and this is the way of interaction between the children and the teachers in White Fields Nursery.
‘Tell me the number you were able to toss with the ball’, this was the game today. Children enjoyed playing a target toss game of numbers, which focussed on their gross motor skills and numeracy as well.
In addition to that, children had a flower Math game puzzle, and they completed the flower according to the numbers.
They had so much to do with numeracy today and stuck the numbers on caterpillars, during the numeracy class to learn numbers.
They were involved in the color game, focusing on their identifying skills. Foot print hopping was great for coordination and balancing. They were so creative in collaging feathers on the UAE national bird.
To enhance their literacy skills, they learnt about Phonic ’N’ and its vocabulary.
Today’s Science Activity focused on STEM-Learning.
An excellent learning experience again…
Intimate Lighting (1965) Language: Czech Subtitles: English Director: Ivan Passer Producer: N/A Writer: Ivan Passer, Jaroslav Papoušek, Václav Šašek Screenplay: Ivan Passer Cast: Zdeněk Bezušek, Karel Blažek, Věra Křesadlová, Jaroslava Štědrá Music: Josef Hart, Oldrich Korte Cinematography: Josef Střecha, Miroslav Ondříček Editor: Jiřina Lukešová Production Design: Karel Cerny Costume: N/A Production: Filmové studio Barrandov Distributor: N/A Description: Intimate Lighting is a Czech drama film directed by Ivan Passer. It is widely considered as a major film of the Czechoslovak New Wave and to be Passer’s most significant film. It follows the adventures of a professional symphony musician, Peter, who comes to a small town to see a friend he has missed, Bambas. He is a teacher and performer at funerals. The two meet again and get involved in some comic exploits, including a possible symphony concert. Krzysztof Kieslowski placed it on his Top Ten list for a Sight & Sound magazine poll. Dave Kehr, formerly of the Chicago Reader, called it “one of the finest works of the short-lived Czech New Wave.” The New York Times noted that it was one of those movies that “loses none of its charm, to age or to repeated viewing” ift.tt/3e8kr8s

recently at a basel municipal office...
bureaucracy interior design language...
I presume they are student nurses. They have their packed dinner before going back to their residential halls. From the way they sound, they speak "German" as much as the stall operator does and little wonder they prefer to have nasi kerabu and "budu" to go with.
But they don't know, yours truly, the photograher can well speak the language too.
****************************************************************************************************
"Nasi Kerabu" literally means "salad rice". Kelantan's Nasi Kerabu is a "white rice" or "dyed blue rice" and served with "tumis" gravy with local herbs, leaves and vegetables. The coloring comes from a type of flower, although some sellers use artificial equivalents. Apart from that it is also served with fried fish, keropok, salted egg, "solok lada" (fish fillet and coconut-stuffed chillis), and pickled garlic.

Urmia or (Turkish Language: اورمو, Urmu, Orumiyeh, Urmiye, Urmiya) is a city in Northwestern South Azerbaijan (Iranian Azerbaijan) and the capital of West Azerbaijan Province. The city lies on an altitude of 1,330 m above sea level on the Shahar Chaye river (City River). Urmia is the 10th populated city in iran and 2nd of Azerbaijanian Turks provinces after Tabriz. Urmia is the trade center for a fertile agricultural region where fruit (Specially Apple and Grape) and Tobacco are grown.An important town by the 9th cent. Urmia was seized by the Oghuz Turks (11th cent.), sacked by the Seljuk Turks (1184), and later occupied a number of times by the Ottoman Turks.The name Urmia or Urmu is thought to have come from Sumerian tongue, the earliest known civilization in the world located in southern Mesopotamia. Ur was a principle Sumerian city. Some believe the name is derived from Syriac. Ur, meaning "cradle," and mia, meaning "water". Hence, Urmia, situated by a lake and surrounded by rivers, would be the cradle of water.The population of Urmia is predominantly Azerbaijanian Turks (over 90%), but with Kurdish,Assyrian and Armenian minorities.
ESCP Europe Business School launched its new Bachelor in Management (BSc) programme at its London campus with a special welcome for both students and families.
The Class of 2018 - 47 undergraduates from 16 nationalities - gathered with parents and siblings to hear from the Dean, Prof. Dr. Frank Bournois, who shared the School’s vision and philosophy, and heralded the start of the programme at the School’s London Campus.
Over three years, Bachelor students at ESCP Europe will travel to three of the School’s European campuses. After spending their first year in London, they will move to either Madrid or Turin. Finally, the full class will reunite for a final year at the Berlin campus.
The Dean of Academic Affairs, Prof. Dr. Andreas Kaplan, a graduate of the School himself and originator of the programme, impressed upon the group that this was the beginning of a unique journey for them – and one for which they had been very carefully selected.
Prof. Dr. Simon Mercado, Director of ESCP Europe’s London campus, welcomed the students to London and into a wider community of learners at the city’s campus. This includes about 500 students studying Master programmes in Business Management, European Business, Energy Management, Creativity Marketing and Business Administration (MBA).
Finally, Peter Globokar, Managing Director of Mooreland Partners and an alumnus of the School, was introduced as the Mentor for the BSc. He attributed his success with Mooreland, an international technology-focused M&A and fundraising advisory, to the entrepreneurial spirit and international experience he gained at ESCP Europe.
As the welcome speeches ended, the guests were officially welcomed to London in the most British way possible: an afternoon cream tea.
About the Bachelor in Management (BSc)
The ESCP Europe Bachelor in Management (BSc) is a three-year programme taught in three countries. Students spend their first year in London; their second in either Madrid or Turin; and their final year in Berlin. During this time students will become fluent in three languages and complete at least two internships, allowing them to graduate with the skills essential for their international business futures. The programme offers not only management subjects, but also a full programme of liberal arts and humanities. Find out more: escpeurope.eu/bachelor
I was asked to design some album cover for the US electronic dance group The Crystal Method with LMFAO the single is Sine Language and includes a variety of remixes by the group. These are a few of the concepts.
The Modern Language Center has arranged for a special trip in downtown Amman. The reason for the Arabic students to acquaint themselves with the archaeological and landmarks in the capital city Amman. They took advantage of their being downtown, had the chance to eat our national sweets “Kenafa”.
They enjoyed the trip very much.
