English Workshop by British Council
Hyderabad: The British Council is offering an intensive workshop for aspiring professionals to develop their writing and speaking skills...These courses include international English, presentation skills and power writing..."
...DC, Wednesday 24 August 2011
First it was power steering, then power play, then power nap, then power meditation (on a deerskin) and now power writing...
Here are some examples of KGPians' Power Things:
Power Partnership:
A mutually beneficial barter exchange of Lab Khata vis a vis Theory Sessionals.
Power Ignorance:
Teachers and students ignoring each other and behaving like strangers when they meet accidentally at the Canteen or even Harry's when they ought to be together elsewhere.
Power Outage:
When a new teacher takes his Class in F-131 on a dark monsoon afternoon and the power goes off suddenly due to the manual switching off of the main switch located outside the classroom by the usual second year culprits.
Power Chase:
When Prof Khanna lays a trap to catch the culprit and chases him from Raman to Bhatnagar.
Power Collision:
When he collides with the DD and the culprit escapes.
Power Encroachment:
When the 1st hour teacher drags his class on for 15 minutes longer and the 2nd hour teacher barges in angrily.
Power Prayer:
When the two comely partners pray to the Heavens before switching on the Power and the chips burn out one after the other serially.
Power Documentation:
Tarapado-da keeping a record in his lal khata the names, roll numbers and residential addresses of all the 4th year lab students for 30 years and more.
Power Dropping:
The simultaneous semi-intentional dropping on the floor of two neighboring answer scripts at a pre-arranged time.
Power Invigilation:
Prof MSS slyly following students from the Exam Hall from Raman to the GG Bathroom and catching them talking.
Power Viva:
When Prof GB asks the roll number and name and considers them as the first two questions.
Power Cut:
Also known in the 1960s as Mass Cut.
Power Kindness:
gps refusing to oblige a student who begs to be failed so he can improve his grades in a Supplementary or Summer Quarter.
Power Farewell:
When the Phy Dept invites Mrs gps to his fond official farewell...fond on all sides.
Power Driving:
When Prof GBM (whose eyesight is next only to his hearing) drives the only jalopy in the campus, honking ferociously on an empty Salua Road till he hits the concrete circle of the Lover's Island.
Power Transfer:
When the written complaint about cockroaches swimming in the sambar of Gokhale Hall (circa1966) is forwarded serially to the Manager, Warden, Chairman HMC, Gymkahna President and finally the Director, who trashes it.
Power Recos:
Reco Templates of gps which need only the name of the student to be changed.
Power Stop:
Also called Full Stop...like this (.)
