Julius Caesar- A spoof.

LOCATION: Roman Assembly Hall.

CHARACTERS: Caesar, Metellus Cimber, Brutus, Decius Brutus, Casca, Cinna.

CAESAR: Are we all ready? If we aren’t, get me my iPhone. I wanna play angry birds.

METELLUS CIMBER: Well, everything’s ready, so yeah.

CAESAR: Shucks dude.

METELLUS CIMBER: O great Caesar,

I plead before you to---

CAESAR: Hahahahahaha Metellus. That’s so melodramatic!

(calling Casca)

Do you have popcorn? I’m enjoying this! (still laughing)

Metellus, you should propose a woman in this way, understand, but I’m not one.

METELLUS CIMBER: Caesar, just release my brother. He’s tired of counting the bars at jail and drawing spongebob and Patrick on the walls.

CAESAR: Nope. Plead more, this is better than Talking tom or angry birds.

METELLUS: (whispering) O man, why doesn’t this dude listen!?

(calling Brutus) Aye brutus, convince this dude! He’s so pig-headed.

BRUTUS: Come on Caesar. I’ll gift you something on Farmville, release this guy!

CAESAR: Wait a bit Brutus. Calpurnia’s still texting me constantly warning me about my murder.

What a strange woman huh.

CASSIUS: Aww come on Caesar. Release Publius, we’ll play on your Xbox after that ok.

He’s the only one who can defeat you at FIFA.

CAESAR: NO WAY! Publius will not be released!

I will be the only one to have the crown of the master of FIFA here!

CINNA: O Caesar, Publius is telling you to calm down. He just texted me about all the noise you’re creating which is disturbing his sleep.

DECIUS BRUTUS 

Great Caesar,--

CAESAR: Chuck Publius. I am the king! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

CASCA: OK enough Caesar. Now I’m gonna kill you.

CINNA: Any last wishes Caesar?

CAESAR: Yeah, let me play GTA IV. And let me text Calpurnia about it.

DECIUS: Ok here you go.

CINNA: I will record this. Will get quite a few views on YouTube huh.

BRUTUS: Enough now Caesar. You cannot break my record in it, freak.

CAESAR: I’m done. Now time to run!

BRUTUS: Woohoo.

CINNA: Now what are you waiting for? Get the champagne!

DECIUS, METELLUS and the OTHERS: AWWWWWW YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

ANTONY: Mother of God.

Caesar, why do you have ketchup spilled on your toga?

BRUTUS: You mad Antony? It’s blood!

ANTONY: Whose?

METELLUS: Mine.

ANTONY: Oh my.

METELLUS: I was being sarcastic, idiot. Get over it.

CASCA: Ok we’re gonna kill you now. We’re not dumb to let you live.

BRUTUS: No way.

CASCA: We’ll kill you too Brutus.

BRUTUS: No way. I’ll kill Antony.

METELLUS: Some jobless people over the internet huh.

BRUTUS: Like our dear Caesar here.

CASCA: Ok enough chit chat. The point is that we won! Let’s dance to Chammak Chhalo now.

DECIUS BRUTUS: Make Caesar and Antony the Chammak Chhalos.

EVERYONE

(evil laugh)

*CURTAIN*

Mr. Thunder and the dark side of Edison.

Nikola Tesla. The genius. THE REAL ONE. Not a household name today due to Edison's jealousy.


Inventor and engineer Nikola Tesla was born in Croatia in 1856.


He first went to the US in 1884  to work for Thomas Alva Edison, who had problems with the Direct Current system of electricity. He promised Tesla rich rewards if he could fix it. Tesla ended up saving Edison a fortune, but Edison went back on his agreement.
Tesla resigned, and devised a better system for electrical transmission- alternating current, which we use in our homes nowadays.


He then invented the motors that are used in all household appliances. He was using fluorescent bulbs in his lab forty years before industry 'invented' them.


It does not end there. He invented the first neon signs, and patented the first speedometer for cars!


In 1898, Tesla demonstrated a remote-controlled, full-size boat at Madison Square Garden, hence demonstrating the principles of radio 10 years before Marconi. Rightfully, in 1943, the US Supreme Court ruled Marconi's patents as invalid due to Tesla's previous work. Yet still, he is not credited with the invention of the radio.


During World War One, the US Government sought a way to detect German submarines, and put Edison in-charge. Tesla proposed the use of energy waves- what we know today as radar, but Edison rejected Tesla's idea, and the world had to wait another 25 years for it's 'invention'.


Tesla died poor, aged 86, in 1943. In his lifetime, he received over 800 patents. Scientists continue to scour his notes, and many of his theories are just now being proven. Tesla might just be the greatest scientist who ever lived. If it wasn't for a jealous Thomas Edison, he would be a household name today.

Suggestopedia!

Fed up of the constant nagging of teachers and the oh-so imposing workload? Fear not, 'cause SUGGESTOPEDIA is here! No, it's not a type of Wiki or anything else. It's a completely reworked educational system which tends to reduce workload, homework and what not!


By the definition,
Suggestopedia is a teaching method which is based on a modern understanding of how the human brain works and how we learn most effectively. It was developed by the Bulgarian doctor and psychotherapist Georgi Lozano. 

Although its main domain is language teaching, it has been proved to be effective in all types of subjects.

Its key features include a rich sensory learning environment (pictures, colour, music, etc.), a positive expectation of success and the use of a varied range of methods: dramatised texts, music, active participation in songs and games, etc.

Suggestopedia adopts a carefully structured approach, using four main stages as follows:

• Presentation
  A preparatory stage in which students are helped to relax and move into a positive frame of mind, with the feeling that the learning is going to be easy and fun.
• First Concert - "Active Concert"
  This involves the active presentation of the material to be learnt. For example, in a foreign language course there might be the dramatic reading of a piece of text, accompanied by classical music.
• Second Concert - "Passive Review"
  The students are now invited to relax and listen to some Baroque music, with the text being read very quietly in the background. The music is specially selected to bring the students into the optimum mental state for the effortless acquisition of the material.
• Practice
  The use of a range of games, puzzles, etc. to review and consolidate the learning.

So basically, it is the future of education! Thank god that the next generation wouldn't have to face the torment of current education systems. :P
