Here's the beginning of the story:
The people of the province of Seistan rejoiced the birth of Rustum, the son of Zal, because when he came into the world, he was as strong as a one-year old child.
While he was yet a small boy, his father called him and said “My son, thou are now strong as an elephant and fit for all the hardships of war, though thy lips still breathe the scent of milk and thy heart turns towards boyish games and gladness. Can I thee to the war to cope with heroes?”
“I have no wish or pleasure or a life of ease,” answered Rustum. “Give me a horse and the club of Sahm, my grandfather, and I will go forth against the enemies of my country.”
Zal gave him the famous club of Sahm and told him to choose one from all the horses in his possession. As each horse passed, Rustum laid his strong hand on its back to test its power of bearing weight. But each horse sank under his powerful touch and fell to the ground. At last, he saw a strong young mare followed by a colt. He prepared his noose to take a colt (Rakush or the Lightning was its name), in spite of the warning that the mare had already killed several man who had tried to seize the young horse. With a sudden cast of the noose he held the colt fast, but the furious mare attacked him with teeth and forefeet, biting and striking in her attempt to crush his head.
Then Rustum gave his famous battle cry, half stunning the creature with his frightful sound, and striking her on the neck with his clenched first, he smote her to the ground. But Rakush proved no easy captive, and it was long before, Rustum had tamed him and could say, “now am I prepared with a horse after my own heawrt to join the field of warriors.”
One day Rustum was an honored guest at the king’s palace in a far away city. Here he saw the king’s daughter, Tamineh, whom he loved for her beauty and wisdom. So they were married, for the king was glad to make an alliance with Rustum. The people rejoiced to hear the news.

He cut down a tree and stuck it in the zebra he had hunted like a skewer and put it on fire. Sleep after eating and drinking water. Seven or eight Turkish riders saw his appearance and followed him. Rakhesh kicked two of them and beheaded one of them. So they tied his neck with a lasso and took him to the city.

Shah Samangan went to meet him and welcomed him warmly. Rostam said, I lost his face here, if you find him, I will reward you, otherwise I will cut off the heads of your elders. The king said, don't be angry and be my guest. His face does not remain hidden and we find him. The king took him to the palace and received him well. When it was night and everyone was asleep, someone came to Rostam's bed with a fragrant candle, and behind him was a beauty like the sun. Rostam was surprised to see him and asked him what is your name? And what are you doing here at this time of night? The girl answered: I am TahminaI am the daughter of Shah Samangan. Among the princes, there is no one equal to me. No one has ever seen my face and heard my voice. I have heard a lot about your bravery and courage and now I found you here. If you want, I am yours because firstly I am infatuated with you and secondly I want to have a child from you and thirdly I will search all Samangan to find your face. When Rostam Zebaravi saw her, he asked Mobdi to propose her to his father. The scholar went to the king and proposed to his daughter for Rostam. Shah Samangan was happy and accepted and they got married.

Complex Forms Of Deduction
A complex form or pattern of deduction involves a combination of forms or pattern of deduction such as modus ponens, modus tollens, disjunctive syllogism, etc., to arrive at a final conclusion or deduction. Therefore, you must know the four basic forms of deduction to do complex forms of deduction.
Example # 1:
1. If P, then Q.
2.Not Q.
3. P or K.
Final deduction or Conclusion: ?????
In this complex form of deduction, we arrive at the final conclusion or deduction as follows:
1. If P, then Q.
2. Not Q
-------------------------
3. Not P (from 1 & 2 using Modus Tollens)
4. P or K
------------------------------------
Final Deduction or conclusion: K. (from 3 & 4 using Disjunctive syllogism)
Example # 2:
1. P or K
2. If M, then N.
3. If N, then Not K.
4. M.
Final deduction or conclusion:??????
In this complex form of deduction, we arrive at the final conclusion or deduction as follows. We need to write the correct sequence of steps to make the deductions clear and easy:
1. If M, then N.
2. If N, then Not K.
-----------------------------
3. If M, then Not K. (from 1 & 2 using hypothetical syllogism)
4. M.
--------------------------------------

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.

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.
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.

5. The people of the province of Seistanrejoiced the birth of
Rustum, the sonof Zal,because when he came intothe
world, he was asstrong asa one-year old child.While he
was yet a smallboy, his father calledhim andsaid…
6. “My son, thou are now
strong as an elephant
and fit for all the
hardships of war,
though thy lips still
breathe the scent of milk
and thy heart turns
towards boyish games
and gladness. Can I thee
to the war to cope with
heroes?”
7.
8. One day Rustum was an
honored guest at the king’s
palace in a far away city. Here
he saw the king’s daughter,
Tamineh, whom he loved for
her beauty and wisdom.
10. Time came when Rustum had to
go back to his own city. He was
sad and could not take his wife
with him. He did not wish that
his people should know about his
marriage for they expected him to
marry a maiden of his own
people.
11. So he took a tender farewell of
Tamineh and gave her an
amulet made of onyx stone
which he got from his arm,
and said:
12.
13.
14. Tamineh was afraid for Rustum will be
proud of such a son and take him from her.
While still a baby she bound the amulet of
onyx on his arm and sent message to
Rustum that a daughter had been born
instead. Rustum was disappointed for he
had hoped for a brave son; but he sent five
jewels for the child bade the mother to take
good care of her. He was busy in the
battlefield and could not come to see her.
15. • When Sohrab was about ten years of
age, he came to his mother one day
and said, “See, I am taller and stronger
than one of the boys with whom I
play; yet, when they ask me of my
race and my father’s name, I can
answer nothing. Tell me, I pray thee,
who is my sire?
16. And Tamineh answered,
“My son, thy father’s name is
Rustum, and he is the
greatest hero the world has
ever seen.”
17.
18. But Tamineh wept and said, “I
have lost my husband, and now I
shall also lose my only son? I beg
you not to find him for he will
take thee from me.” Yet even the
tears of his mother did not stop
Sohrab from his purpose.
19. • Meantime, in that same
morning’s dawn an anxious
messenger came to the tent of
Rustum and implored him to
come forth and take up the
challenge of the stranger
youth, saying:
20. “O, Rustum, like thy might is this
young man’s. He has the wild
stag’s foot, the lion’s heart. And
he is young, and Iran’s chiefs are
old, or else too weak; and all eyes
turn to thee.”
21.
22.
23.
24.
25.
26. The aged warrior looked upon him with
eyes of mistrust thinking that the youth
wished to know his name in order that he
might boast of the fight among his fellows.
Then he said harshly, “Rise! Why do you
ask for Rustum? Rash boy, men look on
Rustum’s face and flee. Fight or yield!”
27. Sohrab rose up and raised his head,
saying: “Thou wilt not frighten me so!
I’m no girl to be made pale by words.
As for that victory of which you are
sure, the event will prove to whom is
to fall.
So… they fight!
28. The armies held their breath for a
time. The darkness around the
combatants disappeared and the
hosts saw Rustum standing safely
while Sohrab was lying wounded
on the bloody sand.
29.
30. Then Sohrab rose up his arm and
cried, “Behold this onyx, given by
Rustum to my mother, that she might
bind it on her babe.”
