American Folklife Center’s Wikipedia Edit-A-Thon: Biographical Entries on Women Folklorists, Ethnomusicologists, and Fieldworkers

Join the American Folklife Center on February 8th for an Edit-A-Thon to expand the online presence of women who documented the world. This event is part of its multi-year initiative to highlight, explore, and celebrate the contributions of women as ethnographic fieldworkers and scholars and call attention to the instrumental role of women in establishing many of the seminal collections that now enrich the AFC archive and ethnographic archives throughout the world. During the Edit-A-Thon, we plan to add and/or expand entries for approximately 25-30 women, both historic and contemporary,  who documented traditional culture. We will focus of those whose collections are now housed in the AFC archive. Activities will be centered at the Library of Congress in Washington, DC, but off-site participation is encouraged. AFC staff will be on hand to assist on-site and off-site researchers and provide archival materials.

No Wikipedia editing experience necessary. Training will be provided.

Laptops are required. Please bring your own. Lunch will be provided.

The American Folklife Center Reading Room is located on the ground floor of the Thomas Jefferson Building, Room G53.

Gastonia Honey Hunters

The Gastonia Honey Hunters was a professional baseball team based in Gastonia, North Carolina. They played in the South Division of the Atlantic League of Professional Baseball, a "partner league" of Major League Baseball, at CaroMont Health Park in Gastonia, North Carolina.

History
In 2019 the Atlantic League announced it was considering a new franchise in Gastonia. Work officially began in November 2019, for the new ballpark in Gastonia. In July 2020, the league announced the addition of a new franchise in Gastonia beginning in 2021; it would be the league's second team based in North Carolina. Brandon Bellamy was announced as the team's owner.

On August 15, 2020, a "Name the Team" contest was launched. On October 8, 2020, the names were narrowed down to Fire Ants, Hogzillas, Honey Hunters, Hotshots, and Uppercuts.

On January 13, 2021, the Honey Hunters name, logo and colors were announced. "Honey Hunters" refers to the toughness of a honey badger (Mellivora capensis) and the ability to seek out positive things in hard times. The moniker also alludes to Ransom Hunter, the first freed slave to own property in Gaston County, of which Gastonia is the county seat.

The team's first game was an exhibition on May 23, 2021, followed by the regular season opening day game on May 25.

In 2022, manager Mauro Gozzo was named Atlantic League Manager of the Year. In the off-season he signed a three-year contract extension.

On November 22, 2023, the Atlantic League terminated the membership of the team, citing significant unpaid debts to the league. Rick White, president of the Atlantic League, confirmed that the Honey Hunters were terminated, but said that the Atlantic League intends to field a team in Gastonia in 2024. On December 1, 2023, the company that operates the Honey Hunters filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. New owners were announced in February 2024 of an Atlantic League team yet to be named which will begin play at CaroMont Health Park on April 25, 2024.

Ernst Cohen

Ernst Julius Cohen ForMemRS (7 March 1869 – 6 March 1944) was a Dutch Jewish chemist known for his work on the allotropy of metals. Cohen studied chemistry under Svante Arrhenius in Stockholm, Henri Moissan at Paris, and Jacobus van't Hoff at Amsterdam. In 1893 he became Van't Hoff's assistant and in 1902 he became professor of Physical Chemistry at the University of Utrecht, a position which he held until his retirement in 1939. Throughout his life, Cohen studied the allotropy of tin. Cohen's areas of research included polymorphism of both elements and compounds, photographic chemistry, electrochemistry, pizeochemistry, and the history of science. He published more than 400 papers and numerous books.

In 1913 he became member of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences. He was elected a Foreign Member of the Royal Society in 1926. Following the 29 April 1942 decree that Dutch Jews wear the yellow badge, he was arrested by Nazi police for non-compliance and forced to resign.

According to Margit Szöllösi-Janze, in her book, Science in the Third Reich, Cohen "put great efforts into restoring the relationships of Western European scientists with their German colleagues after the First World War." He was killed on 6 March 1944 in a gas chamber at Auschwitz concentration camp.

Rubenstein graduated from the National Institute of Dramatic Art in 1967 and has worked extensively in live theatre, television, films and as a narrator of audio books. She has produced a significant body of work as a narrator of audio books and has won several awards in this field.

Television work
Rubenstein has worked in television comedies, drama, mini-series and TV movies. In 1970 she appeared in an episode of Homicide. She played a guest role in Prisoner (1979–80), as terrorist Janet Dominguez. In 2004 Rubenstein played the scheming Svetlanka Ristic in the soap opera Neighbours.

Theatre
Rubenstein's career in the theatre includes work with several major Australian companies, including the Nimrod Theatre Company and Melbourne Theatre Company.

In 1993, she had a solo show called What's a Girl to Do?, where she performed poems written by contemporary Australian women poets. It was later performed by Rubenstein at The Stables Theatre in Sydney (1994) and at the 1995 Edinburgh Festival.

This show inspired her to do another solo show using work commissioned for her, work that was written to be performed live. She was awarded a Victorian Government Women Artist's Grant and commission contemporary writers to produce the performance pieces that were later and produced in a book called Confidentially yours. The first performance was in the Playbox Theatre Centre, C.U.B Malthouse, Melbourne on 11 February 1998. The writers commissioned to produce the work that became Confidentially Yours were, Janis Balodis, Andrew Bovell, Nick Enright, Michael Gurr, Daniel Keene, Joanna Murray-Smith and Debra Oswald. Andrew Bovell wrote a pair of stories for the show that he later used in the script for the film Lantana.

In 2005, Rubenstein performed in Menopause the Musical, a comedy breaking down the taboos about menopause. With Caroline Gillmer, Susan-Ann Walker and Jane Clifton, Rubenstein, as "The Dubbo Housewife", explored the stereotypes and madness of that time in a woman's life.

In 2015, she played Gertrude Stein in the musical Loving Repeating - a Musical of Gertrude Stein in Melbourne.

Absentee ballot
I've already had similar requests, this is probably the last one: it may be that an absentee ballot could be like the ballot on the left, even with a county that used punch cards like PB in Florida. The ballot is almost the same only that the names of the candidates are all on one side and there is an arrow not on the hole to be drilled but on an oval to be blackened. This photo depicts a ballot from Los Angeles County, which previously used punched card systems. More or less the ballot with eyes and cross is always the same. Thank you very much. https://www.berkeleyside.com/2012/10/17/how-much-to-mail-an-absentee-ballot-1-50-or-45%C2%A2 — Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 12:32, 15 September 2019 (UTC)

 * What's your question ? SinisterLefty (talk) 16:06, 15 September 2019 (UTC)

Since the absentee ballots are not punched, the ballot itself could be like the one in the link. I mean Palm Beach County. The drawing is the same, (the arrows), but the candidates are all on one side and there are no holes to be drilled, but circles to be blackened. This is my observation, request or as you prefer question. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 16:22, 15 September 2019 (UTC)

List of introduced fish in Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka is a tropical island situated close to the southern tip of India. It is situated in the middle of the Indian Ocean. This is a partial list of fish species introduced to Sri Lanka.

Class: Actinopterygii - Ray-finned fishes
Since Sri Lanka was ruled by the Portuguese, Dutch, and British. At various junctures, these nations introduced a number of exotic species, which included mammals, plants, birds, and fish. After Sri Lanka secured its independence, the introductions continued unabated, and the breeding of exotic aquarium fish for export became popular.

The deliberate and accidental introduction of exotic fish into Sri Lanka has led to serious ecological damage, as many of these species disrupt ecosystems, reducing the diversity of endemic fish to a degree that causes extinction. Invasive introduced exotic fish, such as the Sail-fin pleco, also cause economic damage by reducing the amount of local fish caught by fishermen while being of no or little economical value themselves. Most of the invasive exotic fish were originally brought for commercial purposes, mainly as aquarium fish and for food.

An introduced, alien, exotic, non-indigenous, or non-native species, or simply an introduction, is a species living outside its native distributional range, which has arrived there by human activity, either deliberate or accidental. Non-native species can have various effects on the local ecosystem. Introduced species that become established and spread beyond the place of introduction are called invasive species. Some have a negative effect on a local ecosystem. Some introduced species may have no negative effect or only minor impact. Some species have been introduced intentionally to combat pests.

There are 24 introduced fish species which inhabit all freshwater, brackish water and marine waters.

Family: Cyprinidae - Carps and allies
Cyprinids are stomachless fish with toothless jaws. Even so, food can be effectively chewed by the gill rakers of the specialized last gill bow.

Family: Salmonidae
All salmonids spawn in fresh water, but in many cases, the fish spend most of their lives at sea, returning to the rivers only to reproduce. This lifecycle is described as anadromous. They are slender fish, with rounded scales and forked tails.

Family: Poeciliidae - Guppy and swordtails
They are extensively used for mosquito control, poeciliids can today be found in all tropical and subtropical areas of the world.

Family: Cichlidae - Cichlids
Cichlids are popular freshwater fish kept in the home aquarium. Cichlids tend to be of medium size, ovate in shape, and slightly laterally compressed, and generally similar to the North American sunfishes in morphology, behavior, and ecology.

Family: Osphronemidae - Gouramis
Many gouramis have an elongated, feeler-like ray at the front of each of their pelvic fins. Many species show parental care: some are mouthbrooders.

Family: Helostomatidae - Kissing gouramis
Single species is known. The kissing gourami is a popular aquarium fish.

Family: Loricariidae - Suckermouth fishes
These fish are noted for the bony plates covering their bodies and their suckermouths. They are popular as aquarium fish.

Family: Notopteridae - Knifefishes
Known as knifefish or featherbacks, have slender, elongated, bodies, giving them a knife-like appearance. The caudal fin is small and fused with the anal fin, which runs most of the length of the body. Where present, the dorsal fin is small and narrow, giving rise to the common name of "featherback".

Filmmaking Basics/3D Storyboard/Building our movie set inside FrameForge

Under Construction This Month
{| cellpadding="10" cellspacing="5" style="width: 99%; background-color: inherit; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto"
 * style="background-color: #fffff8; border: 1px solid #777777; -moz-border-radius-topleft: 8px; -moz-border-radius-bottomleft: 8px; -moz-border-radius-topright: 8px; -moz-border-radius-bottomright: 8px;"|

How to build a wall which has four posters using FrameForge 3D Studio.

 * First load FrameForge 3D Studio
 * Once you have loaded FrameForge 3D Studio 2 (or the demo version of FrameForge 3D Studio 2), you need to create a wall with four posters using Room Builder.

 * To do this, we will actually create two walls, one of which has four windows in it.

Create the first wall

 * [[Image:Buildwall1.jpg|600px]] Control click to see full size

 * Use the Single Wall tool
 * In the upper left hand corner is the wall tool. Select this tool.

 * Draw the Wall
 * Start by creating a wall which is 40 feet long and 10 feet high using the wall tool.

 * Adjust the dimensions using the dialog boxes
 * If you draw it too long or two short, you can always change the size using the dialog boxes at the bottom of the screen.

Create a second wall

 * [[Image:BuildWall2.jpg|600px]]

 * Select the "Single Wall" tool
 * The "Single Wall" tool will still be selected.

 * Create a new wall
 * Create a new wall which is the same size (or slightly smaller) behind the first wall.

 * Adjust using the dialog boxes
 * If you wish, you can adjust the length of this second wall using the dialog boxes at the bottom of the screen.

Select the window tool

 * [[Image:BuildWall4.jpg]]

 * Select the "Window" tool
 * Select the "Window" tool at the top of the screen.

 * What? No bars?
 * The window tool looks like a real window with a complete window frame but actually this tool simply creates a rectangular hole in a wall. Nothing more! (This is all we need.)

Create the first window

 * [[Image:BuildWall3.jpg|600px]] · Control click to see full size

 * Create a window
 * In the first wall, draw a window.

The easiest way to adjust the window is to use the dialog boxes at the bottom of the screen. Adjust the window so the dimensions of the window are:
 * Adjust the window

 * This window starts 4 feet from the end of the first wall. (Notice in the example above, I typed a 5 instead of a 4.  Later I found my mistake so I simply clicked on the window with the selection tool (upper left in the window) and change the dialog box at the bottom of the screen.)

 * This window is 2 feet wide

 * This window is 3 feet high

 * This window is 4 feet off the ground.

 * Note
 * The widows that we create will become the space where the posters will appear.

Create the second window

 * [[Image:BuildWall5.jpg|600px]]

 * Create a window
 * In the first wall, draw a window.

The easiest way to adjust the window is to use the dialog boxes at the bottom of the screen. Adjust the window so the dimensions of the window are:
 * Adjust the window

In the first wall, draw a second window. Then adjust the window so the dimensions of the window are:

 * The second window starts 14 feet from the end of the first wall.

 * The second window is 2 feet wide

 * The second window is 3 feet high

 * The second window is 4 feet off the ground.

When you draw the window, the dimensions and location will not be exactly what you want. It is easier to use the up and down arrows in the dialog box for the dimensions to adjust the window to the correct size. (There seems to be a bug in tying the first number. It you type one number and a different number appears, simply use the up and down arrows instead.)

Create the third window

 * Create a window
 * In the first wall, draw the third window.

The easiest way to adjust the window is to use the dialog boxes at the bottom of the screen. Adjust the window so the dimensions of the window are:
 * Adjust the window

 * The second window starts 24 feet from the end of the first wall.

 * The second window is 2 feet wide

 * The second window is 3 feet high

 * The second window is 4 feet off the ground.

 * Note
 * When you draw the window, the dimensions and location will not be exactly what you want. It is easier to use the up and down arrows in the dialog box for the dimensions to adjust the window to the correct size.  (There seems to be a bug in tying the first number.  It you type one number and a different number appears, simply use the up and down arrows instead.)

Create the fourth window

 * [[Image:BuildWall7.jpg|600px]]

 * Create a window
 * In the first wall, draw the fourth window.

The easiest way to adjust the window is to use the dialog boxes at the bottom of the screen. Adjust the window so the dimensions of the window are:
 * Adjust the window

 * The second window starts 34 feet from the end of the first wall.

 * The second window is 2 feet wide

 * The second window is 3 feet high

 * The second window is 4 feet off the ground.

 * Note
 * When you draw the window, the dimensions and location will not be exactly what you want. It is easier to use the up and down arrows in the dialog box for the dimensions to adjust the window to the correct size.  (There seems to be a bug in tying the first number.  It you type one number and a different number appears, simply use the up and down arrows instead.)

 * Build the movie set
 * Build the room by clicking on the "Build Room" button on the lower right hand corner of the screen.

Select the Second Wall

 * Look at the windows
 * When you look at the windows at the top of the page, you see just a faint outline. That is because both walls are the same color.  They need to be different colors.

 * Blue posters
 * We are going to paint the second wall blue so it looks like posters.

To paint the second wall, we first need to select it.
 * Select the second wall

Color all of the second wall blue

 * [[Image:BuildWall9.jpg|600px]]

 * The Green Room
 * In the Green Room, you can change many things including the color of the selected object. To do this, you must select "Colors, Textures & State".

 * Select ALL of the second wall
 * Rather than trying to figure out which face of the second wall needs color, we will simply paint all of the second wall. Therefore, you first need to go under "Part Name:" and select "--For all Parts--" rather than just "front wall" or "back wall".

 * Select a color
 * By clicking on the color chip marked "Color:", you can change the color of the selected item (which is the all of the wall). Change the color to some strong color.  I like dark blue.

 * Click "OK"
 * Click on the button at the bottom right of the screen to accept the changes to the scene.

Move the second wall

 * [[Image:BuildWall10.jpg]]

The posters will look better if the two walls are almost in the same position. So drag the second wall forward until the two walls overlap by all but one or two inches.
 * Move the wall

 * [[Image:BuildWall11.jpg]]

 * The posters will appear
 * Now you can clearly see the windows which look like blue posters (well, sort of…). You are seeing the blue wall though the holes in the plain wall.  This is good enough!

In the menu, select "Edit Set Parameters"

 * [[Image:BuildWall13.jpg]]

 * Find the page with the set controls.
 * The set controls are on a page called "Green Room". You access this page by using the menu item of "Edit Set Preferences" in the "Sets" menu.

Set all the parameters for the movie set

 * [[Image:BuildWall12.jpg|600px]]

 * The set name
 * A good name for the movie set is "Theater Movie Set".

 * The time of day
 * Since the time of day is night, set the background sky to "Night".

Add the actors

 * Old Person and Young Person
 * You need to add the actors to the movie set and then rotate the actors to whatever position you like.

 * Adding an actor
 * To add the actors, simply look through the pictorial list of the available figures and select one. Then drag its picture to the movie set. (If the movie set is not visible in the main window in the center of the screen, double click on the picture of the movie set in the upper left corner of the screen.)

 * Rotate the actors
 * Select an actor and use the "Spin" control to rotate the actor to face where you want the actor to face.

 * Magnify
 * Move the camera nearer to the actors. Then magnify the blueprint view so that you can easily see the camera, the actors, and the wall.  This way you can easily grab the actors and grab the camera and move them where you want.

 * Adjust the actor
 * If you want to adjust the actor, double click on the actor to see many of the controls for the actor.

 * Begin
 * Now you are ready to begin storyboarding.

Baron Donington

Baron Donington, of Donington Park in the County of Leicester, was a title in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. It was created on 4 May 1880 for Charles Frederick Abney-Hastings. Born Charles Frederick Clifton, he was the widower of Edith Mary Abney-Hastings, 10th Countess of Loudoun. He and his wife had in 1859 assumed by Royal licence the surname of Abney-Hastings on succeeding to the Abney-Hastings estates after the death of his wife's kinsman Sir Charles Abney-Hastings, 2nd Baronet in 1858 (see Abney-Hastings baronets). They were both succeeded by their eldest son Charles Edward Rawdon-Hastings, 11th Earl of Loudoun and 2nd Baron Donington. However, on his death in 1920 the titles separated. The Scottish earldom was inherited by his niece Edith, daughter of his second brother the Hon. Major Paulyn Francis Cuthbert Rawdon-Hastings. The barony of Donington, which could only be inherited by male heirs, passed to his third brother Gilbert Theophilus, who became the third Baron. He had four daughters but no sons, and on his death in 1927 the barony became extinct.

The first Baron was descended from John Clifton, brother of Sir Thomas Clifton, 1st Baronet (see Clifton baronets). Thomas Joseph Clifton, father of the first Baron, was High Sheriff of Lancashire in 1835 and a Justice of the Peace and Deputy Lieutenant for the county. John Talbot Clifton, brother of the first Baron, and his son Thomas Henry Clifton, both sat as Member of Parliament for North Lancashire. Thomas Henry Clifton, brother of the first Baron, was a Major-General in the British Army.

Barons Donington (1880)

 * Charles Frederick Abney-Hastings, 1st Baron Donington (1822–1895)
 * Charles Edward Rawdon-Hastings, 11th Earl of Loudoun, 2nd Baron Donington (1855–1920)
 * Gilbert Theophilus Clifton Clifton-Hastings-Campbell, 3rd Baron Donington (1859–1927)

The Goose that Laid the Golden Eggs

"The Goose that Laid the Golden Eggs" is one of Aesop's Fables, numbered 87 in the Perry Index, a story that also has a number of Eastern analogues. Many other stories contain geese that lay golden eggs, though certain versions change them for hens or other birds that lay golden eggs. The tale has given rise to the idiom 'killing the goose that lays the golden eggs', which refers to the short-sighted destruction of a valuable resource, or to an unprofitable action motivated by greed.

Story and moral
Avianus and Caxton tell different stories of a goose that lays a golden egg, where other versions have a hen, as in Townsend: "A cottager and his wife had a Hen that laid a golden egg every day. They supposed that the Hen must contain a great lump of gold in its inside, and in order to get the gold they killed [her]. Having done so, they found to their surprise that the Hen differed in no respect from their other hens. The foolish pair, thus hoping to become rich all at once, deprived themselves of the gain of which they were assured day by day."

In early tellings, there is sometimes a commentary warning against greed rather than a pithy moral. This is so in Jean de La Fontaine's fable of La Poule aux oeufs d'or (Fables V.13), which begins with the sentiment that 'Greed loses all by striving all to gain' and comments at the end that the story can be applied to those who become poor by trying to outreach themselves. It is only later that the morals most often quoted today began to appear. These are 'Greed oft o’er reaches itself' (Joseph Jacobs, 1894) and 'Much wants more and loses all' (Samuel Croxall, 1722). It is notable also that these are stories told of a goose rather than a hen.

The English idiom "Kill not the goose that lays the golden egg", sometimes shortened to "killing the golden goose", derives from this fable. It is generally used of a short-sighted action that destroys the profitability of an asset. Caxton's version of the story has the goose's owner demand that it lay two eggs a day; when it replied that it could not, the owner killed it. The same lesson is taught by Ignacy Krasicki's different fable of "The Farmer":

There is another variant on the story, recorded by Syntipas (Perry Index 58) and appearing in Roger L'Estrange's 1692 telling as "A Woman and a Fat Hen" (Fable 87): ''A good Woman had a Hen that laid her every day an Egg. Now she fansy’d to her self, that upon a larger Allowance of Corn, this Hen might be brought in time to lay twice a day. She try’d the Experiment; but the Hen grew fat upon’t, and gave quite over laying''. His comment on this is that 'we should set Bounds to our Desires, and content our selves when we are well, for fear of losing what we had.' Another of Aesop's fables with the moral of wanting more and losing everything is The Dog and the Bone.

Eastern instances
An Eastern analogue is found in the Suvannahamsa Jataka, which appears in the fourth section of the Buddhist book of monastic discipline (Vinaya). In this the father of a poor family is reborn as a swan with golden feathers and invites them to pluck and sell a single feather from his wings to support themselves, returning occasionally to allow them another. The greedy mother of the family eventually plucks all the feathers at once, but they then turn to ordinary feathers; when the swan recovers its feathers they too are no longer gold. The moral drawn there is:

North of India, in the formerly Persian territory of Sogdiana, it was the Greek version of the story that was known. Among the 8th-century murals in Panjakent, in the western Sugdh province of Tajikistan, there is a panel from room 1, sector 21, representing a series of scenes moving from right to left where it is possible to recognize the same person first in the act of checking a golden egg and later killing the animal in order to get more eggs, only to understand the stupidity of his idea at the very end of the sequence. A local version of the story still persists in the area but ends differently with the main character eventually becoming a king.

In the Mahabharata a story is recounted of wild birds that spit gold, and were discovered by a man who soon strangled them "out of greed".

Use in the arts
The French text was set as the fourth of Rudolf Koumans' Vijf fabels van La Fontaine for children's choir and orchestra (Op. 25 1968). Yassen Vodenitcharov (1964-) has created a chamber opera from the story (2004) and Vladimir Cosma included the poem as the ninth piece in ''Eh bien ! Dansez maintenant'' (2006), a light-hearted interpretation for narrator and orchestra in the style of a foxtrot.

The majority of illustrations of "The Goose that Laid the Golden Eggs" picture the farmer despairing after discovering that he has killed the goose to no purpose. It was also one of several fables applied to political issues by the American illustrator Thomas Nast. Captioned Always killing the goose that lays the golden eggs, it appeared in Harpers Weekly for March 16, 1878. There the picture of the baffled farmer, advised by a 'Communistic Statesman', referred to the rail strike of 1877. The farmer stands for the politically driven union members whose wife and children sorrow in the background.

Two postage stamps have also featured the fable. Burundi's 1987 set of children's tales uses Gustave Doré's picture of the despairing farmer holding the body of the slaughtered goose (see above). The fable later appears on the 73 pence value from a Jersey set celebrating the bicentenary of Hans Christian Andersen in 2005, although "The Goose that Laid the Golden Egg" never figured among his stories.

Films
The theme of a duck, goose or hen laying a golden egg, but not the traditional plot line, was taken up in films in both the United States and Russia. In Golden Yeggs (Warner Bros, 1950) it was given cartoon treatment, while it provided a comedy MacGuffin in The Million Dollar Duck (Walt Disney Productions, 1971). The 1971 film Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory features geese laying golden eggs filled with chocolate. The Russian comedy Assia and the Hen with the Golden Eggs (Kurochka Ryaba, 1994) takes a slightly satirical look at small village jealousy in post-Soviet times.

ESL for Primary School

Welcome to English as a Second Language for children, part of the English Language Division.

Content summary
Participants teach English as a Second Language in a classroom or tutoring environment to primary school aged students with a primary language other than English.

Lessons/Themes
Naming Common Objects and food- learn names of common household and classroom objects as well as foods. Show pictures representation when learning the name.

For Younger Students /Activities/ that are especially well-suited for younger students or for absolute beginners.

See also: the /Lesson plan template/.

Note: These 'lessons' may be carried out over more than one session in the classroom. They also include suggestions for activities that could be useful for each theme, or adapted to other themes.

Introduction

 * Teaching Without Training
 * Native English speakers often find themselves in the situation of being responsible to teach English as a Second Language with little or no training in teaching. These materials are intended to help ESL teachers in primary school classrooms.

 * A Place to Start
 * This is not a comprehensive teacher training course, and the lessons plans are not definite or set in stone. They are intended only to give a starting point and a few ideas to help you design your own lesson plans.

 * Rich Resources
 * The Internet is amazingly rich in resources for the ESL teacher, so much so that it can be somewhat overwhelming. On the other hand, it is great for idea-generating: when you are developing a lesson plan, google ESL and your topic, and you'll have lots of ideas to work with.

 * Learning Curve
 * To me two of the most important things in teaching are preparation and flexibility: you need to be prepared, and you need to be flexible enough to forget everything you've prepared.

Ideal Students

 * For ESL teachers in primary classrooms or ESL tutors
 * These lessons and ideas are for teachers and tutors of 8-12 year old ESL learners.

 * Teaching your native language
 * This course is especially for Native English speakers who are teaching in a primary level classroom with little or no formal teacher training.

 * Teaching is learning
 * Honestly, I think I learn at least as much from my students as they learn from me. So let us all be students as well as teachers, and learn from our students and from each other.

Texts

 * TeachersToolbox - Teaching methods.
 * Guide_to_First_Year_Teaching - Guide to First Year Teaching.
 * Teaching_Assistant_in_France_Survival_Guide - Teaching Assistant in France Survival Guide.
 * Tools For Teaching- Tools for teaching
 * First Year Teacher's Survival Kit- First Year Teacher's survival kit

Assignments
Feel free to add ideas of activities that have worked for you.

Enriching Activities
These activities may prove helpful if you have to teach "special" English classes - ie. extra English lessons for those who want to learn more than is required by the curriculum.

 * Working in teams, choose (a country) and create a poster about (a country) using pictures (drawn or photocopied) and words/ sentences that occurs to you when you think of that (country). Write them down with accompanying pictures and present the poster to the class. Be creative!

 * Choose a book to read from a selection. Look up words you do not understand. Take the book home. After practising for a week, read the book aloud to the class. Be aware of your pronunciation. You must be able to explain/translate if a student in the class does not understand a sentence or a word.

 * Find the meaning of the words (found in a specific book) in the vocabulary list in the English dictionary. Listen to this book being read out aloud. In sentences, answer simple questions about each chapter.

 * Imagine you have magic powers. What would it be? Why? Write it down in sentences, get it checked, and present your thoughts to the class.

 * Working in teams, imagine you own a shop. What kind of shop is it? What would you sell? Make a poster of your shop using pictures and words. Present the poster to the class.

 * Think of your favorite sport. Now, compare yourself to one of your favorite athletes in that sport. Write about how you look different, who would win if you had to play each other, and why that person is one of your favorite athletes.

 * Think of your ideal vacation. What is it? Where would you go? Write a short essay on your ideal vacation. Submit it for grammar and spelling checks. Practise saying it out loud then present to class.

Active participants

Learning Project Summary

 * Suggested Prerequisites: You speak English and want to teach it.
 * Time investment: The more time you put in, the more your students get out of it.
 * Assessment suggestions: Don't worry, your students will let you know what works and what doesn't!
 * School: "Foreign Languages" is the Division for now, but should it go in Education instead?
 * Departments: English as a Second Language
 * Stream: "English as a Second Language"
 * Level:: Primary School

Hello. I had entered a suggestion about country-specific information in the discussion section of the Wikipedia page on genealogy, and in response I got a suggestion by user ThuranX to come here and contribute to the Wikibook. So I'm informing you that I'd like to contribute the section on France, currently empty, in the "area-specific" chapter. For now, I am familiarizing myself with the content of the other pages for inspiration. I would like to enter more information than just a collection of links. Feel free to tell me what you think, and of course, once the section is started and has some structure, I'll be happy to see other contributions. Claude 15:29, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Claude, I joined Wikibooks just to do what you're doing, that is, improve this book. I'll help you out by working with you as your 'editor' on the france section as you add stuff. Hopefully together we can really make a great section. Some suggestions: A history of the Civil Registration process in france, esp. Napoleon's establishment of a uniform system; The religious records available, and widely encountered trend or problems, like the regions involved inthe Thirty Years' War having lost many parish records; and Records which may be unique to France, prehaps Bastille prisoners, or something like that? ThuranX 21:59, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Accuracy of information
I would really like to see a section on how to validate information for accuracy. I have seen submitted information in geneology, which is completely false, and would like additional tips on how to verify accuracy of information. Okay, I am becoming redundant, but cannot stress enough how important geneology is in terms to being correct. I use USA the census records, birth and death records, newspaper clippings etcetera in my research. What other tools are out there? B.

 * Documentary sources are legion, and there are other sites devoted to listing them. One thing I would say, however, is that whatever you find, whatever you check: document it!  Reference everything, even when you don't find what you might have been looking for (and thus prove by modus tollens some otherwise undocumented fact).  We should do all we can to encourage family historian's to cite their sources, because if the people we're researching had done so our job would be so much easier!  Even 'pers. comm.' (with details if possible) is better than having no idea of where or when some fact may have originated!  — Sam Wilson (Australia) 05:09, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

It's in the Water

It's in the Water is a 1997 independent film. Written and directed by Kelli Herd, the film touches on themes of homosexuality, AIDS, coming out and small-town prejudice. The film stars Keri Jo Chapman, Teresa Garrett, Derrick Sanders, Timothy Vahle, Nancy Chartier and John Hallum.

Plot
Alex is a married Junior Leaguer with a penchant for interesting shoes. Her Junior League chapter's annual project is to volunteer at Hope House, an AIDS hospice that recently opened in her home town of Azalea Springs, Texas. Alex and her League friends, including her friend Sloan, tour Hope House. Alex runs into her best friend Spencer, whose lover Bruce is a resident, and Grace, a friend from high school who had recently moved back to Azalea Springs to work at Hope House as a nurse.

That night at the town's annual Azalea Ball, a drunken Spencer tells a society matron that his homosexuality was caused by drinking the local water. An equally drunken Sloan overhears and spreads the story. A panic ensues, with the local newspaper printing the story and commissioning testing of the water supply. Mark, the son of the publisher, objects to his father, but because Mark is himself struggling with his homosexuality and attending meetings of an ex-gay group at the local church, he's limited in what he can do to mitigate the story and the resultant damage. The leader of the ex-gay group, Brother Daniel, announces plans to protest for the closing of Hope House.

Alex and Grace renew their friendship and Grace comes out as a lesbian to her. Grace returned to Azalea Springs because her husband found out about an affair she was having with another woman and is now in prison for assaulting Grace.

At an ex-gay meeting, Mark meets Tomas, a painter. Mark hires Tomas to re-paint his dining room.

The Junior League decides not to continue volunteering at Hope House. Alex, who's resigned from the League, goes to work full-time at the hospice over her husband Robert's objections.

Alex develops some curiosity about her possible lesbianism and rents a number of classic lesbian-themed films: Desert Hearts; Lianna; Personal Best; Heavenly Creatures; Bar Girls; Claire of the Moon; The Incredibly True Adventure of Two Girls in Love; an unnamed, presumably pornographic video; and, mixed in among them, The Godfather Part III, which serves as mainstream cover for the other selections and elicits a bemused look from the counter clerk, who has been loudly reading out the titles.

At Hope House, Alex gives in to her growing attraction to Grace and they kiss passionately in a supply room. Sloan catches them and spreads the story all over town. After Tomas paints Mark's dining room, they go out on a dinner date, where Mark learns that Tomas stumbled into the ex-gay meeting by mistake. After dinner they go to Tomas's studio and Tomas shows Mark his paintings. They make love. Reaction is immediate and hostile, with Alex suffering indignities great and small, everything from the breakup of her marriage to the closing of her credit account at the local fried pie shop.

Following this, Mark gains the courage to break up with the woman he's been dating as a "beard" and to come out to his father. He demands that his father drop the story on the water supply (testing proves that the water is completely ordinary) and stop the negative coverage of Hope House.

Mark and Tomas and Alex and Grace go out dancing at a big-city gay club, where they see Ray Ray, the son of Alex's family housekeeper, performing as a drag queen called Obsession. Ray Ray leads Mark and Tomas to a leather bar where they catch ex-gay leader Brother Daniel in full leather gear (Mark has a photo published in the paper to discredit Brother Daniel's anti-Hope House protests). Meanwhile, Alex and Grace go to a hotel room where they make love for the first time.

Back in Azalea Springs, Spencer's lover Bruce dies of AIDS-related complications. At his funeral, Alex's father comforts her and her mother, while still upset over Alex's lesbianism, shows that she still loves her daughter (by insulting her shoes, something she's done repeatedly through the film).

Reviews
AfterEllen.com summed up with "the film is cheesy but enjoyable. There aren't many lesbian romantic comedies about middle and upper-middle-class women, and that combined with the two strong female leads, an interesting story, and good production quality make this film better than most independent lesbian films, and worth watching."
