The Joy of Raki: 01/01/2015 - 02/01/2015
http://joyofraki.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
The Joy of Raki. An erratic journal veering between a myriad of topics. Tuesday, January 13, 2015. The Looking Glass War. Neither, of course, would be an answer. Then again, re-posting satirical cartoons that mock the weak and not the strong is also not really a suitable riposte. I am not going to pretend to be an expert on Islam: I can't pretend, for that matter, to be an expert on Christianity, or any other religion you may choose to nominate. However, at least I do not dissemble myself into that m...

The Joy of Raki. An erratic journal veering between a myriad of topics. Monday, September 16, 2013. The nights are getting longer, the air is getting colder, and one's thoughts finally turn to blogging once more. Actually, I've not been entirely with my Blog Mojo, having been busy with Other Stuff, such as idly loafing round. So, as is my wont, I thought it's time to blow the dust off the digital page and make you suffer more of my scribblings. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). 101 uses for a head of state.

The Joy of Raki. An erratic journal veering between a myriad of topics. Wednesday, October 16, 2013. An Adventure In The Trouserlegs Of Time. Have you ever had a dream, whether in the depths of sleep or while lulling through the more tedious aspects of your daily routine, where somewhere out there is another version of you, living a fuller, more complete life, one that consists of far more Adventure, Excitement and Really Wild Stuff than is generally available? Why not a random chemical interaction?

The Joy of Raki. An erratic journal veering between a myriad of topics. Monday, February 17, 2014. Well, since that last entry, it all appears to have kicked off in the press. Make no mistake, this will affect life on the south of the border too, and everyone in the UK needs more information than a 'He-said-this-and-he-said-that' bulletin on the 6 O'Clock news. Will Scotland vote for independence come September? Will Scotland go independent? Friday, February 14, 2014. No, I haven't left my job thanks to ...

Paul's ELT Journal: Set affective filters to high!
http://paulseltjournal.blogspot.com/2015/06/set-affective-filters-to-high.html
Studies, theories, ideas, notes from the workface and occasional bits of stupidity. Friday, 26 June 2015. Set affective filters to high! Yes, I know it's been a while, but hey, here I am. You may (or may not) be wondering about the hiatus in writing, and all I can say is that I just haven't felt a truly compelling urge recently. That, and an awful lot of soul searching, accompanied by many Strange And Awful Things Happening. More on the reasons for my own passing state of low dudgeon in a moment. I've me...
Paul's ELT Journal: September 2013
http://paulseltjournal.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Studies, theories, ideas, notes from the workface and occasional bits of stupidity. Wednesday, 18 September 2013. Right, now that I'm back into the maelstrom of the new term and put a few lessons under the belt, time to kickstart the old blog again - I hope you all had a good summer, readers. Bing bang bing bang bing bang biiioooononinining. What did I do? I went on to teach for the next twenty years, by striding into the class and saying, as loudly as I could without shouting, 'Good Evening! Well, we'd ...
Paul's ELT Journal: Hand it in or Email it in?
http://paulseltjournal.blogspot.com/2014/10/hand-it-in-or-email-it-in.html
Studies, theories, ideas, notes from the workface and occasional bits of stupidity. Wednesday, 8 October 2014. Hand it in or Email it in? We've gone all Google at my place of work. I'm still not quite sure if this necessarily a good idea. The next thing to consider is the learner's native writing system. Clearly, if someone has Arabic as their L1, writing in latin script provides its own challenges - not merely the formation of the individual letters, but also writing in the other direction, ensuring...

Paul's ELT Journal: May 2013
http://paulseltjournal.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Studies, theories, ideas, notes from the workface and occasional bits of stupidity. Thursday, 30 May 2013. What makes a successful lesson? I've just been reading 'The Map Is Not The Territory' over on The Secret DOS's blog. Which discusses the efficacy (or not) of lesson planning. Speaking as someone with over 20 years' experience of EFL, I can say my relationship to prepping for classes has waxed and waned over time, and involves several variables, including:. The LP is ANATHEMA to Teaching Unplugged!

http://paulseltjournal.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Studies, theories, ideas, notes from the workface and occasional bits of stupidity. Monday, 29 September 2014. Fail again. Fail better.'. How often have you heard a student say 'I don't get it! Or 'I will never understand this language'? How often have you seen them do that puffy thing with the cheeks and shrug* their shoulders before going slumping in their seats? It seems to me that the learners most likely to get a block with language are those who, as it were, seek perfectibility - that is, they want...
Paul's ELT Journal: October 2013
http://paulseltjournal.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Studies, theories, ideas, notes from the workface and occasional bits of stupidity. Monday, 28 October 2013. English UK beckons again. It looks like I'm headed for the English UK Teachers' Conference once more, although I have to say it is with somewhat mixed feelings. Monday, 21 October 2013. There were only a few minutes left. I stared at myself in the mirror, trying to gee myself up, but I felt a horrible twisting in my guts. They were waiting for me. I picked up my plan and headed off. There was noth...
Paul's ELT Journal: It's Monday! Flee for your lives!
http://paulseltjournal.blogspot.com/2014/09/its-monday-flee-for-your-lives.html
Studies, theories, ideas, notes from the workface and occasional bits of stupidity. Monday, 8 September 2014. Flee for your lives! Actually, Monday's nearly over, so never mind. The last post was all about capturing that Friday feeling, but a long-term reader of this blog* suggested that it might be an idea to have a companion piece that would, as it were, book-end the week. So here it is. So why am I speaking about this subject here? I suggest that we need little 'disruptions' to break up the monotony.
Paul's ELT Journal: The calm before the storm
http://paulseltjournal.blogspot.com/2014/09/the-calm-before-storm.html
Studies, theories, ideas, notes from the workface and occasional bits of stupidity. Friday, 12 September 2014. The calm before the storm. It struck me, as I ran around doing all this adminny stuff and not without some irony, that I'd probably be better off running my own language school, instead of working for FE. Yet here I am still. Enjoy your year, whether you're a teacher, or a learner, or both. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Speaker and listener roles. Language at intermediate level. Ten things...

Model and prototype railroad news, products, photos, resources
Model and Prototype Railroad News, Resources, Products. I've been an avid railfan, photographer of prototype and model railroads, and modeller most of my life. I began in HO scale, both standard and narrow gauge, but now, that I have the room, I'm building a large garden railroad that is loosely based on the Indian Valley Railroad and the Western Pacific - of course, it will have a Keddie Wye!

Cancelled, sorry!
Thanks for stopping by. I hate to say it, but I had to cancel the books. Thanks for your interest anyhow!

Friday, July 8, 2011. I am glad to have put this poem up on my wall:. By ee cummings (he's my fave! Tuesday, July 5, 2011. Speaking of Canada pictures, I just found this one on my desktop, too. We were being the tilting head pugs. Dad could barely make it through one tilt without cracking up completely! So funny. I love this picture. Isn't this picture cute? It's from the Canada trip, courtesy of Dave or Holly, and it's definitely one of my favorites of all time. Has it really been so long? And finally, ...

The Joy of Raki. An erratic journal veering between a myriad of topics. Tuesday, February 23, 2016. Meanwhile, on the other channel. Farewell from this blog. I'll leave that one to your imagination. However, all is not yet over in the writing stakes - I have two new blogs to follow:. Which is all the political and weird stuff, and. Which is all the Turkish, er, political and weird stuff. I hope that you'll find them as entertaining, or barely tolerable, as my output here. See you on the other side! I had...

Joy of Reading
Thoughts on books, writers, readers, and the places they meet. Monday, June 6, 2016. David Gilkey, photojournalist at NPR, was killed yesterday in Afghanistan. Along with translator Zabihullah Tamanna. Those words cause my guts to churn and my chest to tighten. My friend was one of the most decent people I ever met. Even though his job sent him to capture images of people in dramatic or tragic circumstances. Another time, we talked about his repeated trips to Afghanistan and Iraq after other media had tu...
