Balanced diet
Keeping a balanced diet is essential for maintaining good
health and well-being. It means consuming a variety of foods
that provide your body with the right nutrients it needs to function
properly. So, what does a balanced diet look like?
Fruits and Vegetables: Start by fi lling half your plate with
fruits and vegetables. These foods are rich in vitamins, minerals,
and fi ber. They help you stay healthy and provide essential
nutrients.
Proteins: Include lean proteins like chicken, fi sh, beans, and
tofu in your diet. Proteins are important for building and repairing
tissues in your body.
Whole Grains: Opt for whole grains like brown rice, whole
wheat bread, and oatmeal. They provide energy and fi ber, keeping
you full and satisfi ed.
Dairy or Alternatives: Dairy products like milk, yogurt,
and cheese are excellent sources of calcium. If you’re lactose
intolerant or prefer plant-based options, try fortifi ed non-dairy
alternatives like almond milk.
Healthy Fats: Don’t be afraid of fats; just choose healthy
ones like avocados, nuts, and olive oil. These fats are essential
for brain and heart health.
Limit Sugars and Salt: Try to reduce your intake of sugary drinks,
sweets, and high-sodium foods. Too much of these can harm
your health.
Hydration: Drink plenty of water throughout the day. It helps
with digestion, keeps you hydrated, and supports overall health.
Portion Control: Pay attention to portion sizes. Eating the
right amount of food helps maintain a healthy weight.
Remember, a balanced diet isn’t about perfection; it’s about
making good choices most of the time. So, try to incorporate a
variety of foods into your meals, and don’t forget to enjoy your
food. A balanced diet is not only good for your body but also for
your taste buds!

Pannacotta with finger lime
I am something of a pannacotta afficionado, and often choose it for dessert when I eat at Italian restaurants. It is quite simple to make, but it takes a delicate touch to get the gelatine to liquid ratio just right, so that the pannacotta is set but quite wobbly when turned out from its mould, and the texture silky smooth and quite delicate. I make a pannacotta that uses a combination of cream and buttermilk, which makes it rich, but light and silky in texture and with faint citrus notes. It is perfecct to pair with finger lime, an Australian native citrus fruit that is becoming more readily available, due to its pretty colours and gorgeous flavour.
The finger lime is native to the rainforests of the border ranges of south east Queensland and northern New South Wales. The pulp of the fruit is made up of individual juice vesicles that look like caviar or tiny pearls. They are compressed inside the fruit and burst out when the fruit is opened. The pulp has an astringent citrus flavour and is almost effervescent on the tongue, a bit like sherbert. We have been growing a finger lime for several years now and it started to bear fruit a couple of years ago. Ours has a dark green fruit and the pearls are a pale green, but the ones I bought to make this recipe have an almost black skin and the pearls are translucent pink. If you can't get finger limes then any tropical fruit works wonderfully in this recipe − finely diced mango, passionfruit pulp, or small chunks of caramelised pineapple. But if you can find finger limes please try them to top this pannacotta − you won't be disappointed.
Serves 6
3 leaves of gold strength gelatine
1 2/3 cups pouring cream
150 g castor sugar
1 1/4 cups buttermilk
juice of 1 lemon
2 medium sized finger limes (available from good fruit shops) sliced lengthwise and the pearl like fruit removed.
Soak the gelatine leaves in cold water to soften. Combine the cream and sugar in a saucepan on medium heat and bring it almost to the boil. Take off the heat and add it to the buttermilk in a medium sized bowl. Squeeze the excess moisture out of the gelatine and whisk into the buttermilk and cream mixture until completely dissolved. Stir through the lemon juice and let it cool a little. Pour into moulds and then set in the fridge for around 4 hours. When ready to serve carefully invert the pannacottas onto a serving plate. They should come out easily and be set but very wobbly. Carefully top with a teaspoon of finger lime pearls and serve right away.

TEXT:
Reading and Vocabulary: A Recipe for Success
Dr Randi Reppen
March 13, 2025
It’s no surprise that research shows a very strong relationship
between reading comprehension and vocabulary knowledge. After
all, we need to be able to understand the words that we encounter
when reading in order to understand what we’re reading. As Grabe
and Stoller so succinctly stated back in 1997, “reading improves
vocabulary knowledge and vocabulary knowledge supports
reading development” (p.119). It’s a reciprocal relationship: the
larger your vocabulary, the easier it is to read, and the more you
read, the more your vocabulary increases.
So how do we get learners to increase their vocabulary to make
reading easier (and more pleasurable!)? Research tells us that
to read with adequate comprehension, 95 – 98% of the words in
the text need to be known (Nation 2001: 147). But what does it
mean to know a word when a single word can have many diff erent
senses/meanings? Take a simple word like green. Now put
yourself in your student’s shoes. Imagine fi rst encountering this
word in a story about someone who lost their green jacket. Then
in a diff erent context you read about someone who was green –
instead of a color this could mean that the person was feeling sick,
or envious, or a novice, or eco-conscious. Not so simple, is it?
We also know that reading texts on diff erent topics increases the
chances that our students will encounter diff erent words and come
across new meanings of known words. But how can we get them
to do this consistently? One eff ective way is to combine “intensive”
and “extensive” reading practice. This approach can both fi ne
tune reading skills and increase vocabulary knowledge, all while
making reading more pleasurable.
Intensive Reading
Intensive reading activities typically take place in class and involve
diff erent ways of interacting with a text. Examples include timed
readings, scanning for information, or skimming to get the gist of
the text before diving in to read.
Newspaper articles off er great resources for scanning activities
since they often include dates and names. If your school has a
campus paper (print or online), use it as a resource for scanning
activities. Rather than focusing on just one article, have your
students scan the entire school paper for when or where certain
events are taking place. This has the added benefi t of being
directly relevant to their daily lives.
I’m also a fan of timed readings using short texts (200 – 400
words) that cover a wide range of topics. These increase the
opportunity for students to encounter more diff erent words and
to see words they already “know” in diff erent contexts and with
diff erent meanings (as our example above of the word green).
Extensive Reading
Extensive reading usually happens outside the classroom, but
there are benefi ts to including a dedicated time for this type of
reading in class. When I teach reading, I always have 10 – 15
minutes of silent sustained reading as part of class. During that
time everyone, including me, reads something of their choice. I set
a timer so that we don’t lose track of time while reading.
With extensive reading, students choose texts of high interest to
read every day for a predetermined amount of time. It’s important
that students are reading for pleasure during this time and NOT
reading textbooks. Graded readers or young adult literature are
great resources for extensive reading.
You can help motivate your students by keeping track of their
reading. Here are two suggestions:
1. Reading logs – Have your students keep reading logs of
how much time they spend reading each day. They should
also write a sentence or two about what they read.
2. Reading progress tracker – Have a place in your
classroom to show their reading progress. For example,
if students commit to reading 15 minutes a day, create a
board showing student progress in 15-minute increments.
As students accumulate reading time, you can have
benchmarks (e.g., an hour, fi ve hours) for when students
receive diff erent rewards, such as a certifi cate, time for an
in-class game, or even a free book.
Combining intensive and extensive reading activities has long
been a recipe for success in my classrooms. I have no doubt that
it will help you help your students become more successful, and
happier, readers, too.

Postclassic Period
The end of the Terminal Classic Period has been viewed
as the death knell for the Maya civilization, and the
Postclassic Period has traditionally been described as a
militaristic, decadent, and degenerate phase in Maya
history. But more enlightened views would see that the
militarism was part and parcel with other features that
suggest a tendency towards secularism and the resultant
downplaying of the ceremonial rituals that dominated the
Classic Period. Moreover, much of our interpretations of
the Postclassic were projected from ethnohistoric
accounts of the Spanish intrusions in the region. Very
little attention has been directed towards understanding
the Postclassic through archaeology, although recent
research on the period, particularly at Santa Rita in
northern Belize, suggests continuity from the Classic
Period.The focus of cultural developments moved from
the Central Maya Lowlands north, to the Yucatan, where
the Spanish first contacted the Maya culture.
Once the Spanish established their base in northern
Yucatan by 1546, they began to impose their views and
customs upon the Maya. This was a time of great
disruption. The Maya people suffered from introduction of
European diseases suppression of native traditions
conscription of labor.
Tragically, the vast majority of Maya documents were
destroyed by Spanish religious zealots. The Auto de Fe
of Fray DeLanda is among the most famed. Credited with
providing scraps of information on the Mayan language,
in truth he is responsible for burning the majority of the
known text at the time. The created a huge void of information about the language and practices of this
advanced civilization. The Maya of the Yucatan struggled
to maintain their life ways under Spanish rule. The Maya
forest garden and milpa strategy, unfamiliar to and
unappreciated by the Spanish, was not accepted.
After the conquest of the northern Yucatan, the southern
Maya Itza kingdom still dominated the southern lowlands,
where Tikal once ruled. Hostile to their neighbors and
ensconced in the Maya forest, they were able to maintain
their independence for nearly two centuries after the
Spanish arrived.
Postclassic Mural
It was not until 1696 that the Spanish conquered the last
of the independent Maya city-states, the Itza of Tayasal,
the descendants of the ancient Maya realm. The Central
Maya Lowlands, which today include most of Belize and
the Peten of Guatemala, are still home to Maya who can
trace their ancestry back into prehistory as attested by
the patronyms of local villagers: Teck, Bacab, Mai,
Cocom, and Panti to name a few.

Population history of the Southern Caucasus
Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology—An
international team of researchers from Germany,
Georgia, Armenia, and Norway has analyzed ancient
DNA from 230 individuals across 50 archaeological sites
from Georgia and Armenia. Within the framework of the
Max Planck-Harvard Research Center for the
Archaeoscience of the Ancient Mediterranean,
co-directed by Johannes Krause, Director at the Max
Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig,
and Philipp Stockhammer, Professor at Ludwig
Maximilians University of Munich, this study reconstructs
the genetic interactions of populations in the Southern
Caucasus over time and down to the level of individual
mobility.
Mostly constant ancestry with traces of Bronze Age
migrations
Spanning from the Early Bronze Age (circa 3500 BCE) to
after the Migration Period (circa 500 CE), the research
shows that people in the Southern Caucasus retained a
mostly constant ancestry profile. "The persistence of a
deeply rooted local gene pool through several shifts in
material culture is exceptional", says population
geneticist Harald Ringbauer, whose research team at the
Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology led
this study, "This stands out compared to other regions
across Western Eurasia, where many changes were
linked to substantial movement of people."
While there was overall genetic continuity, the research
also found evidence of migration from neighboring
regions. During the later phases of the Bronze Age, in
particular, a portion of the area's genetic makeup traces
back to people from Anatolia and the Eurasian steppe
pastoralists—reflecting cultural exchange, technological
innovation, burial practices, and the expansion of
economic systems, such as mobile pastoralism.
Following this period, the population size in the area
increased, and genetic signatures of mixing were often
more transient or confined to singular mobile individuals.
Cranial deformation: introduced by migration, then turned
into a local tradition
One of the study's most striking findings concerns early
Medieval individuals from the Iberian Kingdom, located in
present-day eastern Georgia, who had intentionally
deformed skulls. This cultural practice was long thought
to be tied to Central Eurasian Steppe populations. "We
identified numerous individuals with deformed skulls who
were genetically Central Asian, and we even found direct
genealogical links to the Avars and Huns " says lead
author and geneticist Eirini Skourtanioti from the Max
Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology and
Ludwig Maximilians University Munich. "However, our
analyses revealed that most of these individuals were
locals, not migrants. This is a compelling example of the
cultural adoption of a practice that was likely
disseminated in the area by nomadic groups."
Liana Bitadze, head of the Anthropological Research
Laboratory at Tbilisi State University in Georgia and a
co-author of the study, corroborates the significance of
this finding: "Previously, we addressed this question
through comparative morphometric analyses. Now,
ancient DNA analysis has created a completely new line
of evidence, helping us to reach more definitive
answers."
A melting pot of diverse ancestries
The study also highlights how urban centers and early
Christian sites in eastern Georgia became melting pots of
people beginning in Late Antiquity. This further
emphasizes the long-standing role of the Caucasus as a
dynamic cultural and genetic frontier.
"Historical sources mention how the Caucasus Mountains
served both as a barrier and a corridor for migration
during Late Antiquity. Our study shows that increased
individual mobility was a key feature of the emerging
urban centers in the region", says Xiaowen Jia, co-lead
author and PhD researcher at Ludwig Maximilians
University Munich.
This research sets a new standard for understanding the
population histories of regions that have long been
overlooked by archaeogenetics.

Marie Curie, née Maria Sklodowska, was born in Warsaw on November 7, 1867, the daughter of a secondary-school teacher. She received a general education in local schools and some scientific training from her father. She became involved in a students’ revolutionary organization and found it prudent to leave Warsaw, then in the part of Poland dominated by Russia, for Cracow, which at that time was under Austrian rule. In 1891, she went to Paris to continue her studies at the Sorbonne, where she obtained Licenciateships in Physics and the Mathematical Sciences. She met Pierre Curie, Professor in the School of Physics, in 1894 and in the following year they were married.

Read the following text to answer question
his paper presents the concept of task as the location for learning a foreign language (FL), a space for creation in and with the target language, with the tasks utilized simulating as closely as possible the situations which the students will encounter outside the classroom and which, moreover, emphasize meaning. Throughout the paper, the theory of the use of tasks for the teaching/learning of a FL present in the literature will be discussed, and an approach which is based on the utilization of tasks as the backbone for the planning of course is presented. In addition to emphasizing meaning, the tasks analyzed take a relatively long time to complete, i.e. they last more than a single class. Thus, the input can be remembered and re-worked as it reappears in different ways, thus making it possible for learning to be more long-lasting and significant.

A new scholarship aimed at developing the next
generation of artificial intelligence “pioneers” will open to
applicants in spring 2026, with the first cohort beginning studies
the following autumn.
The Sparck AI scholarships, named after pioneering
British computer scientist Karen Sparck Jones, will give master’s
degree university students access to industry-leading firms as the
Government looks to boost the UK’s AI credentials.
The University of Bristol will be one of nine universities
to offer the fully-funded Government scholarship, alongside
faculties in Newcastle, Manchester and Edinburgh.
The scheme has been developed in line with the
Government’s “AI Opportunities Action Plan”, receiving more
than £17 million of funding from Westminster, with the grant
covering both students’ tuition and living costs.
Alongside master’s places, 100 scholars will receive
placements in leading AI companies, as well as mentorship from
industry experts. It is hoped the scholarships will give students
“unparalleled access” to the fast-moving industry.
Vice-Chancellor Evelyn Welch said the scholarships
would give Bristol the chance to “explore bold new ideas and
nurture exceptional talent.” Technology Secretary Peter Kyle MP
said he believed the scheme would help students secure “highly
skilled jobs” and build “a workforce fit for the future.” AI talent
acquisition firm Beamery said the scholarships would help their
goal to create “equal access to work” and connect “talent to
opportunity”.

Literacy as a Multidimensional Concept
An emphasis on the development of literacy as a
fluid concept (Knobel and Lankshear, 2014) is one of
the most recent advances in twenty-first-century
education. To conceptualize literacy, the ability of the
learner to make use of language takes precedence in
typical Western educational systems. However, as
Kern highlights, “literacy is more than a set of
academic skills” (2000, 23). It varies depending on the
social context and is embedded in cultural practice
(Paesani et al. 2016).
Therefore, in order to define it, we must take into
consideration the set of resources, sociocultural
practices and competences––beyond reading and
writing––that enable student interaction, critical
thinking, the drawing of conclusions and the
application of knowledge to curricular areas and realworld situations (New London Group 1996; Kern
2000; American Association of School Librarians
(AASL) 2011; Cooper et al. 2012; Kucer 2014;
Paesani et al. 2016; Reyes-Torres 2018; Warner and
Dupuy 2018). As such, the multimodal training
approach that we propose for the FL class stems from
Kern’s notion of literacy, first, “as a process of creating
and transforming knowledge” (2000, 29), and second,
“as a matter of engaging in the ever-developing
process of using reading and writing as tools for
thinking and learning, in order to expand one’s
understanding of oneself and the world” (40). This
involves paying careful attention to language, while
also developing a critical awareness of the
relationships between texts, images, discourse
conventions and sociocultural and digital contexts.
In sum, and in consonance with Kern and other
scholars such as the NLG (1996), Steve Kucer (2014),
Maria Brisk (2015), Paesani et al. (2016) and Shari
Tishman (2018), we define literacy as a dynamic and
multidimensional concept whose main aim is to
provide twenty-first-century learners with the language
skills, visual thinking strategies and dialogic attitudes
that are necessary to develop the knowledge that
allows them to grasp and evaluate information,
organize ideas, exchange perspectives, construct
meaning and reflect critically on a variety of
sociocultural contexts. In order to foster such a
multidimensional approach to literacy in EFL and
implement it as an organizing principle (Kress 2010;
Serafini 2014), it is necessary that teachers become
acquainted with the three dimensions that both Kern
(2000) and Kucer (2014) acknowledge as the key
components: a) cognitive; b) conceptual; and c)
sociocultural.
These dimensions constitute a field of forces that
complement one another and are equally important in
the process of both teaching and learning, and they
also illustrate the multiple facets and fluid nature of
literacy.

Education in a language which is not the first language of the learner is as old as education itself. As individuals from different language groups have lived together, some have been educated in an additional language. This is as true of Ancient Rome as it is of the increasingly multilingual societies being created through mobility and globalization in the 21th century.
Two thousand years ago, provision of an educational curriculum in an additional language happened as the Roman Empire expanded and absorbed Greek territory, language and culture. Families in Rome educated their children in Greek to ensure that they would have access to not only the language, but also the social and professional opportunities it would provide for them in their future lives, including living in Greek-speaking educational communities. This historical experience has been replicated across the world through the centuries, and is now particularly true of the global uptake of English language learning.
Researchers and educators have sought new practices in education that will suit the demands of the present day. Globalization and the forces of economic and social convergence have had a significant impact on who learns which language, at what stage in their development, and in which way. The driving forces for language learning differ according to country and region, but they share the objective of wanting to achieve the best possible results in the shortest time. This need has often dovetailed with the need to adapt content-teaching methodologies so as to raise overall levels of proficiency.

Traditional EFL classrooms face several challenges,
including limited exposure to authentic language use, lack
of engagement, and varying learner proficiency levels.
Research indicates that reliance on non-authentic materials
can hinder listening comprehension and motivation among
students. For instance, substituting traditional listening inputs
with spontaneous teacher discourse and storytelling has been
proposed as a means to enhance engagement and provide
authentic language exposure (Ypsilanti, 2024). Additionally,
the integration of Content and Language Integrated Learning
(CLIL) approaches can bridge the gap between vocabulary
learning and meaningful text production, fostering a more
engaging learning environment (Balle & Olsen, 2023).
Moreover, varying proficiency levels among learners often lead
to common writing errors, such as grammatical mistakes and
vocabulary misuse, which necessitate targeted instructional
strategies to address these challenges effectively (Isma et al., 2023). Teachers also encounter difficulties in adapting
to curriculum reforms and integrating digital media due to
limited resources and training, which can further exacerbate
engagement issues (Alnasib & Alharbi, 2024; Syarifuddin &
Hz, 2023). Addressing these challenges requires innovative
teaching strategies and a supportive infrastructure to enhance
EFL learning outcomes.
