International Mother Language Day
International Mother Language Day (IMLD) (Bengali: আন্তর্জাতিক মাতৃà¦াষা দিবস Antôrjatik Matribhasha Dibôs) is a worldwide annual observance held on 21 February to promote awareness of linguistic and cultural diversity and multilingualism. First announced by UNESCO on 17 November 1999, it was formally recognized by the United Nations General Assembly in its resolution establishing 2008 as the International Year of Languages.
The United Nations' (UN) International Mother Language Day annually celebrates language diversity and variety worldwide on February 21. It also remembers events such as the killing of four students on February 21, 1952, because they campaigned to officially use their mother language, Bengali, in Bangladesh.

The theme of the 2016 International Mother Language
Day is “Quality education, language(s) of instruction and learning
outcomes.”
Mother
languages in a multilingual approach are essential components of
quality education, which is itself the foundation for empowering women
and men and their societies.
International Mother Language Day is a public holiday in Bangladesh since 1953.
UNESCO brings the same focus to advancing linguistic diversity on the
Internet, through support to relevant local content as well as media and
information literacy. Through the Local and Indigenous Knowledge
Systems program-me, UNESCO is highlighting the importance of mother and
local languages as channels for safeguarding and sharing indigenous
cultures and knowledge, which are vast reservoirs of wisdom.
Mother languages in a multilingual approach are essential components of
quality education, which is itself the foundation for empowering women
and men and their societies. We must recognise and nurture this power,
in order to leave no one behind, to craft a more just and sustainable
future for all.

Exercise with Meditation helps beat depression
If you feel down and out most of the time, try meditation coupled with aerobic exercises twice a week for just two months to beat the blues forever, finds a study, adding that this mind and body combination reduced the symptoms of depression by 40 percent in the study participants.
“We are excited by the findings because we saw such a meaningful improvement in both clinically depressed and non-depressed students,” said lead author Brandon Alderman from Rutgers University’s school of arts and sciences.
“It is the first time that both of these two behavioural therapies have been looked at together for dealing with depression,” added Alderman in a paper published in the journal Translational Psychiatry.
The researchers discovered that this combination of mental and physical training enabled students with major depressive disorder not to let problems or negative thoughts overwhelm them.
Scientists have known for a while that both of these activities alone can help with depression.
“But this study suggests that when done together, there is a striking improvement in depressive symptoms along with increases in synchronised brain activity,” noted Tracey Shors, professor in the department of psychology.
It was an eight-week programme and the participants began with 30 minutes of focused attention meditation followed by 30 minutes of aerobic exercise.
They were told that if their thoughts drifted to the past or the future they should refocus on their breathing - enabling those with depression to accept moment-to-moment changes in attention.
The results showed that 22 participants suffering with depression and 30 mentally healthy students reported fewer depressive symptoms.
According to them, they did not spend as much time worrying about negative situations taking place in their lives as they did before the study began.
“By learning to focus their attention and exercise, people who are fighting depression can acquire new cognitive skills that can help them process information and reduce the overwhelming recollection of memories from the past,” Shors noted.

elements your PC needs to be match with to skip all those pure experience you
may have otherwise. Following are the requirements you need to take care.

Step 4 – Find ‘Clash of Clans game’, and you’ll find a clickable
link that will take you to Google play store listing.
Step 5 – You’ll be asked to set up synchronization feature now
that will require you to login using a Google account. Do that as you can’t
skip it.
Step 6 – Once login is done, you’ll be back at search page where
you need to click on the link and then click on the game link in Google play
store.
Step 7 – Next, click on ‘install’ option that will begin the
downloading of Clash of Clans game on computer.
Once the downloading process is

anything.
