  • The Bogeyman Show Notes Season 1, Episode 6
    The Bogeyman Show Notes Season 1, Episode 6 Welcome to episode six of the Time Pieces History Podcast. I can’t believe we’re halfway through the first season already! I decided we’d have some light relief today, and look at the legend of the bogeyman. This creature pops up around the world, not just in Britain, but he’s certainly significant. As part of my Time Pieces History Project I looked at some of my favourite books, so this episode is inspired by that, and in particular Raymond Briggs’ Fungus the Bogeyman, a family man who has questions about his life. If you haven’t read Fungus, I highly recommend getting yourself a copy. Briggs is probably more famous for his books The Snowman and Father Christmas, but I always preferred Fungus, perhaps because of Briggs’ lovingly-drawn illustrations of his underground world. It’s also full of puns and funny inventions, which made me laugh rereading it as an adult. Bogeymen like things damp and mouldy, and keep their clothes in a ‘waterobe.’ In private they’re polite and softly-spoken, and like to go to art galleries, where they get emotional over the paintings. Fungus’ day job though (or should that be night job?) is the more traditional bogeyman role, of scaring children, disturbing people’s sleep and turning milk sour. Over several pages, we see Fungus wondering if there should be more to his existence than traumatising humans, in scenes which are both hilarious and sad. Raymond Briggs put his own spin on the legend of the bogeyman, which is fine, because one good thing about them is that there’s no hard and fast rule on what one looks like, or what they do.

  • Santa Claus from Country to Country
    Santa Claus from Country to Country Lesson topic: Various ways Santa is portrayed in different countries Content Concepts: -Learn about various Santa Claus legends United States, Belgium, Brazil, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, New Zealand, Romania, Russia, Netherlands, Spain, Chile. -Social Studies, history, map skills -Reading (list of library books) -Math problems -Science projects -Craft projects -Writing practice -Gaming skills -Music (list of Christmas CD’s) Proficiency levels: Grades 4 - 6 Information, Materials, Resources: Social Studies, History, and Map skills United States: The modern portrayal of Santa Claus frequently depicts him listening to the Christmas wishes of young children. Santa Claus (also known as Saint Nicholas, Saint Nick, Father Christmas, Kris Kringle, Santy or simply Santa) is a folklore figure in various cultures who distributes gifts to children, normally on Christmas Eve . Each name is a variation of Saint Nicholas , but refers to Santa Claus. In today's North American, European and worldwide celebration of Christmas, people young and old simply refer to the hero of the season as Santa , or Santa Claus. (Wikipedia) Conventionally, Santa Claus is portrayed as a kindly, round-bellied, merry, bespectacled white man in a red coat trimmed with white fur, with a long white beard . On Christmas Eve, he rides in his sleigh pulled by flying reindeer from house to house to give presents to children. To enter the house, Santa Claus comes down the chimney and exits through the fireplace . During the rest of the year he lives together with his wife Mrs. Claus and his elves manufacturing toys . Some modern depictions of Santa (often in advertising and popular entertainment) will show the elves and Santa's workshop as more of a processing and distribution facility, ordering and receiving the toys from various toy manufacturers from across the world.

Pline McDonnell-Douglas's Space Station Five is the crown jewel of the new corporatized world government. For almost three decades it has survived the cold of outer space, proving itself far more advanced than its four predecessors. More stable than Space Station One, whose HVAC chief fell asleep on his keyboard, taking out the heating system and freezing all its occupants. More organized than Space Stations Two and Three, each crumbling under mutiny. Only slightly more sound than SpaSta-4, a state of the art machine with one flaw: a bolt left loose by a hung-over maintenance man. The tiny piece of metal fell out, rolled into an air duct, and dropped into the engineering room, blowing the gyroscope and sending the station tumbling into deep space.

Banana-peel humor reigns supreme in a cartoon-illustrated paperback that is a Ad mock newspaper. There's an advice column, an interview with a plant, lead articles 4-6 on reaching the top of the world's lowest mountain and on the election of a gerbil to the presidency in France, a weather forecast ("Today we can look forward to wea- ther over most parts of the country.") and a garden column and sports features and ads and so on. There's humor here, but it's exaggerated, and the heavy slapstick does pall.

Full understanding of the text will prove essential for literary appreciation and for philological studies. 2) In the introductory part the material is presented in lesson form, making it possible to create study units. The lessons sometimes seem to be rather long. However, many of the given grammatical items are, at least for the beginning, only of secondary importance.

    KFOR CHRONICLE COMKFORCOMKFOR letterletter forfor ChristmasChristmas 20052005 Dear KFOR members, dear friends, In almost any of our home-countries, whatever our faith may be, Christmas time is always a period of serenity, joy, hope and of family reunions. I truly believe that you, KFOR soldiers, are fully successful in helping all Kosovo people to spend these holidays in that serene, peaceful and joyous way they deserve. But I also understand what it means for you to be away from your families during this special time. I know well because, in 40 years of military service, it has happened to me so many times. Therefore, remember that, here in Kosovo, the whole KFOR is now your large family, and we will spend these days sharing the same feelings that families share. Finally, please pass my best wishes to your families and all loved ones. While it is hard for us to be away from home, it is even harder for them to bear our absence, although I am sure they all know how valuable your tour of duty in Kosovo is, as a member of a Peacekeeping force, giving to people the greatest of the gifts: the opportunity for Kosovo families to gather in security, peace and hope. Very Happy Christmas to all of you! Happy New Year 2006!
