They came together to do what people do at reunions - to renew old friendships, to reminisce, to laugh, to look at old photos of them­ selves when they were younger, to sing "inside" songs, to get dressed up for a reception and to have a banquet with a speaker. In this case, the speaker was General William Westmoreland, and before the banquet, in the afternoon, the group had gone to Arlington National Cemetery to place a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. They represented 1,600 women who had served (some in the 50's, some in the 60's and some in the 70's) in an American Red Cross program which provided recreation for U.S. servicemen on duty in Europe, Korea and Vietnam. It was named Supplemental Recreational Activities Overseas (SRAO). In Europe it was known as the Red Cross center program. In Korea and Vietnam it was Red Cross clubmobile service.

  • Schloss Colditz Und Fluchtmuseum
    Recherchetext (www.leipzig.travel/recherchetexte) Colditz - Schloss Colditz und Fluchtmuseum “The Colditz Story” „Sein Herz würde ihm ein Stück tiefer sacken“ und er „müsse seine Seele Gott dem Allmächtigen anbefehlen“ – so beschreibt der britische Offizier Pat Reid in seinem Roman „The Colditz Story“ seine Ankunft auf Schloss Colditz. Im Norden Frankreichs gerät er während des Zweiten Weltkriegs in deutsche Kriegsgefangenschaft und wird am 10. November 1940, nachdem er aus seinem ersten Gefängnis im bayerischen Schloss Laufen ausgebrochen war, ins sächsische Colditz verlegt. Das malerische Schloss mit seinen weißen Giebeln diente von Herbst 1939 bis zur Befreiung 1945 unter der Bezeichnung „Oflag IV-C“ als Sonderkriegsgefangenenlager für alliierte Offiziere. Besonders aufgrund vieler spektakulärer Ausbrüche und Ausbruchsversuche erlangte das Schloss Colditz internationale Bekanntheit. Das Fluchtmuseum im Beamtenhaus macht mit einer Ausstellung die abenteuerlichen Fluchtversuche der alliierten Offiziere erlebbar. Es beherbergt Werkzeuge, Ausstattungen und vieles mehr zum Thema Flucht – ein Höhepunkt, den sich Besucher der Leipzig Region keinesfalls entgehen lassen sollten! Renaissanceschloss Colditz – Eine wechselhafte Geschichte Mit seiner fast 1000-jährigen Geschichte blickt das Schloss Colditz auf bewegte Zeiten zurück. Die erste geschichtliche Erwähnung eines „Burgwards“ in Colditz lässt sich auf das Jahr 1046 datieren. Eine interessante Tatsache: erst um 1200 entstand rund um den Markt die eigentliche Stadt Colditz. Somit thronte die Burganlage schon knapp 150 Jahre früher über dem heutigen Stadtgebiet. Seine erste Blütezeit erlebte Colditz als Jagdschloss unter dem kunstsinnigen und welterfahrenen sächsischen Kurfürsten Friedrich dem Weisen (1486–1525). Nach einem von dem Bäckergesellen Clemens Bock verursachten Brand 1504, der weite Teile der Stadt, das Rathaus, die Kirche und das Schloss verwüstete, wurde das Schloss nach 1506 und besonders um 1520 im Stil der frühen Renaissance umgebaut, umfassend erweitert und neu ausgestattet.

The Conference Leadership Team joins me in welcoming you to this “new normal” way of gathering in 2020. Our theme today is “United Methodist Women Ignited for Justice: Let Your Light Shine.” As we have seen over the past months many forms of injustice have been uncovered and the light has begun shining on them. I’m sure when the United Methodist Women Board of Directors and Program Advisory Group members approved the 2019-2020 Program Book theme and programs, little did they know that “for such as time as this” our Sisterhood would be learning about how we can shine light and be the light for others in our hurting world.

The war outside Colditz is mentioned only fleetingly and briefly, this book is really about the Fascinating! Colditz History. At times this reads a bit like a boys own adventure with even the Germans represented in a benign light. W rated it liked it Jan 28, What a bloody cheek! I didn't enjoy this as much as "The Colidtz Story" or "The latter days at Colditz" by Pat Reid and I think that was because I already knew the main incidents at Colditz from those books. Average rating 4. The ultimate goal for anyone trying to escape was a Home Run, which is a complete escape from the castle grounds and into Allied territory. There is no narrative. I was very unpleasant to him. It was great to hear about the castle and its prisoners from the view of the German staff. Paperback , pages. Reid shares much of the meticulous planning and amazing ingenuity of the POW's from Colditz, which included officers from many nations habitual escapers all. Germany is a federal multiparty republic with two legislative houses. See Article History. Inmates duplicated keys to various doors, made copies of maps, forged identity papers, and manufactured their own tools.

  • Open Educational Resources (OER)-Based Flipped Classroom Practice in an Undergraduate Course
    Chapter 9 Open Educational Resources (OER)-Based Flipped Classroom Practice in an Undergraduate Course Yan Li, Muhua Zhang, Curtis J. Bonk, Wenjun Zhang and Yuqing Guo Abstract The purpose of this study was to explore the process and effectiveness of Open Educational Resources (OER)-based flipped classroom practice in an undergraduate course named “Internet and Distance Education.” The course was taught in Winter Semester, 2013 at the Zhejiang University, China to 15 under- graduate students majoring in education. The course was designed as a Web-based and blended course, which mainly included two parts. In the first 5 weeks of the course, students were invited to take a Coursera course named “Emerging Trends & Technologies in the Virtual K-12 Classroom.” In the last 6 weeks of the course, students were invited to learn Sakai-based course chapter contents and complete an OER-related assignment. Flipped classroom practices were utilized during the whole course. Data analysis found that participating students generally progressed through four stages in the OER-based flipped classroom: (1) being unfamiliar, (2) understanding, (3) adapting, and (4) becoming skilled. At the same time, stu- dents emotionally shifted from excitement and nervousness to relaxation, happi- ness, and confidence. Diary analysis and a general e-learner satisfaction survey found that students were generally satisfied with the OER-based flipped classroom practice. In their diaries, some students also put forward several suggestions for this form of instruction. Based on the findings, several suggestions to improve OER-based flipped classroom practices are offered. Y. Li (&) Á M. Zhang Á W. Zhang Á Y.

  • Middle School History & Politics Society July 2020
    MIDDLE SCHOOL HISTORY & POLITICS SOCIETY JULY 2020 PUBLICATION 1 Counter Arguments To Capitalism By Johnnie Willis-Bund In the following article I will not be directly attacking capitalism, however I will instead addressing arguments often made in capitalism’s favour (and hopefully showing that they hold very little water). I hope you find them interesting, and perhaps change your mind about the economic system you live under. The first and most common argument for capitalism is also, I find, one of the weakest. It starts of, as most capitalist arguments do. “Oh sure, communism’s a nice idea, BUT…” and then goes on like, “no one would have any incentive to work. The free market means your actions have consequences so you have to work hard.” This is a perversion of the truth. It’s the reverse of the truth. In fact, under capitalism, people have less of an incentive to work, because their labour is alienated. This means, because the means of production are privately owned (and not by the workers who actually use them) the work you do nd the profits of your labour get stolen by your boss. The very concept of profit itself depends on the fact that the labourers are underpaid. Don’t you think that this alienation may disincentivize workers and that they would be more inclined to work hard if they were able to claim the values of their own labour (by owning the means of production). What capitalism does is exploits people into doing work for other people and never receiving the value of their labours because they have been coerced into becoming another cog in the machine of surplus value theft because they would starve otherwise.
