Have you ever heard about Tormented Souls?

How about put the Frye twins in the settling?

... Or directly making more chaotic to fuse the AC and Tormented Souls canon in one.

Also, a video resuming Tormented Souls if you don't know it:

https://youtu.be/3pILV3-4T1o?si=tM4es-r9rFVUamMU

When I first saw Tormented Souls, my brain immediately reminded me of Clock Tower 3 so I’m not entirely sure if I’m taking bits from Tormented Souls or from Clock Tower 3 in this situation hahahaha

Anyway, let’s mix them up.

Evie and Jacob are twins who have grown apart after their father’s death. They leave in opposite sides of the world and they’ve lost contact with one another years ago.

Deliberately.

It was a way to distance themselves with the hyper competitive household they grew up with. Staying away from one another helped them grow and see things in a different light.

The annoyance and jealousy they felt to one another blinded them before but, by being apart and living their own lives, they realize they had similar feelings and held similar suffering in the Frye house.

Then they both received a letter.

From their dead father.

So they returned to their childhood home, a mansion that has been with the Frye family for a century or so.

Jacob parks behind and enters through the kitchen because that’s the only key he has. Evie, on the other hand, enters through the front door, pass the expansive hedge garden that had become too overgrown from a decade of neglect.

Neither of them know for sure that the other is coming but…

They had hope.

And hope was the most cruel torture of all.

.

Unorganized Notes:

George Westhouse is an old friend of their father who has been taking care of their home. Or so they thought. It seemed that George has been doing jack shit because the house is filled with dust and the gardens haven’t been tended to.

If this was a game, the player would alternate between Evie and Jacob at given points and an ongoing theme is that they always miss each other.

They both meet a young woman called Lydia who tells them that the house is haunted by the souls of the tormented. They think she’s lost her marbles, especially after she says her name is Lydia Frye. They both know that their father is an only child so, if she was Frye, she had to be a very distant relative.

There’s a labyrinth underneath the basement and that’s where the ‘good stuff’ is.

That’s also where they find each other.

To be more exact… they find their twin, young and already dead.

.

The twist is that this isn’t a time travel setup, this is an alternate world plot set up by an Ethan Frye who lost not just his wife but also his two children.

There are actually 3 alternate worlds in play.

Evie Frye’s alternate world where Jacob died in a fire five years after Ethan Frye’s death.

Jacob Frye’s alternate world where Evie died in an accident while in India with her husband.

They both learn about this during their stay in the house because the house they’re ‘coming home to’ is ground zero of the 3rd alternate world. The world of Ethan Frye who plans to use them as a sacrifice to bring back his family.

One of the things Jacob finds is a letter addressed to him, sent to his world’s old house (and transported into the 3rd world together with Jacob), about the death of Evie Frye and asking him if he would like to come to the funeral in India.

On Evie’s side, it’s actually a newspaper left to rot in one of the rooms with a phone still attached, like someone (George) had wanted to call ‘someone’ to tell them about the fire that killed the famous Maxwell Roth and his rumored lover Jacob Frye.

And Lydia?

Lydia isn’t exactly real. She’s a personification of the worlds mixing with one another, a ghost from an alternate timeline where Evie and Jacob both lived and reconciled. She’s not the real Lydia Frye, granddaughter of Jacob and grandniece of Evie. She’s a ‘what if’ given human form to assist in carving all three timelines away from one another.

And the only way to do it is to kill the insane Ethan Frye before he finished his ritual.

.

.

.

Imma be honest, this started out as Tormented Souls + Clock Tower type situation but turned into a Koudelka inspired idea down the line hahahaha.

Anyway, the ending would probably be Evie and Jacob going back to their respective worlds after a tearful goodbye where they both say what they wished they could have said to their dead twin.

… the good ending anyway.

Of course, in true, survival horror fashion, there’s multiple endings, including one where Ethan wins and he actually revives his dead family. But, well… let’s just say that Ethan Frye was successful in reviving his wife but… it’s not pretty.

Pulptober 2024 Day 7: The Phantom/Beyond Their Homeland

This one's for characters who were created in one country, but are primarily associated with another.

The Phantom was created in America, a proto-superhero, but hailing from the fictitious country of Bangalla, originally somewhere near India. For reasons, it was subsequently established to be somewhere in Central Africa.

HIs concept has become...uncomfortable...over the decades. A white dude who pretends to be immortal by passing a nearly identical costume on to his children to fool the superstitious natives, who worship him like a god? Ow. This is why most treatments of the character just avoid ever talking about that issue.

I've reviewed a couple of things with him in it, including a collected volume of the early comic strip.

The strip is still running, by the way.

And then there's this Dynamite Comics miniseries where the current heir to the Phantom legacy retired and married a native woman, only to have tragedy strike.

The jungle drums speak! The Ghost Who Walks shall live forever!

My only flaw as an Indian is to think too much, know too much. My only flaw to being a good Hindu daughter is that I’m bisexual, that I sympathize with muslims, that I speak up about the darkness of the world.

My greatest flaw living in India is my imagination, my thoughts. I cannot think of the outside world for a second until my head is shoved towards my maths textbook. I cannot express my opinions without being seen as a stupid child.

I loath the children in the streets who see not the bigger picture. I feel jealousy crawling up my spine as I look at my classmates praised for their grades behind which they hide their animalistic behavior.

All I can do is ignore and bear it, remind myself every time I look in the newspapers that speak of war and devastation in far lands that there are people out there suffering more than me- how dare I pity myself? I should study, finish the Marathi homework I must give in two weeks. Yet how can my mind focus when all I can see is suffering and tragedy and pain?

I am stuck in a loop and I can’t get out. I am told to think when I get older, but by then I know it’s too late. If i wait i’ll be blinded by bias. If I wait, I’ll be married off to a random boy my parents deem ‘hindu’ enough for me.

But enough about me, what about you?

On this day:

SUMITRA, SHIVA, AND SHANTI DEVI

On July 19, 1985, in northern India, funeral preparations were underway for a young woman when she sat up in the midst of her grieving family. Upon revival, seventeen-year-old Sumitra insisted her name was Shiva and that everyone around her were strangers. Sumitra had been possessed by disincarnated personalities before, and the family assumed the episode would pass. It didn't, except for a few hours over a year later, when Sumitra briefly regained control of the body.

"Shiva" said she had died, two months previously, during a family argument when she was hit on the head with a brick. Police records supported her claim, documenting that her body, discovered near the railroad, showed evidence of blows to the head. Her family insisted the girl had committed suicide. Sumitra/Shiva went to visit the quarrelsome relatives, and she recognized and named twenty-three of them, even though they tried to trick her. Interviews from fifty-three individuals concluded that she was indeed Shiva. The illiterate village girl Sumitra had become the urban-savvy Shiva.

In 1926, in Delhi, India, Shanti Devi was born. At three years of age, she began to talk of her husband, Kedarnath, and children, who lived in Muttra. When she was seven, her parents took her to the doctor, and when she was eight, her grand-uncle wrote a letter to the referred husband. He was afraid to respond to the letter and sent his cousin to visit the young girl in his place. Shanti recognized him. Newspapers got hold of the story, and an entourage accompanied Shanti as she looked for her previous house. Easily finding it, she remarked that it had been painted and told Kedarnath that she had buried some rings in the garden before she died. He found them. In spite of this, her previous husband and children were not very welcoming to her, and she eventually created a new life for herself.

Extract from New Youth Newspaper, published by anonymous student protestor, 06/05/1919:

Whirlwinds of Danger

Whirlwinds of danger are raging around us, O'erwhelming forces of darkness assail, Still in the fight see advancing before us, Red flag of liberty that yet shall prevail.

Then forward ye workers, freedom awaits you, O'er all the world on the land and the sea. On with the fight for the cause of humanity. March, march ye toilers and the world shall be free.

Women and children in hunger are calling, Shall we be silent to their sorrow and woe? While in the fight see our brothers are falling, Up then united and conquer the foe!

Then forward ye workers, freedom awaits you, O'er all the world on the land and the sea. On with the fight for the cause of humanity. March, march ye toilers and the world shall be free.

Off with the crown of the tyrants of favor! Down in the dust with the prince and the peer! Strike off your chains, all ye brave sons of labor! Wake all humanity, for victory is near.

Then forward ye workers, freedom awaits you, O'er all the world on the land and the sea. On with the fight for the cause of humanity. March, march ye toilers and the world shall be free.

Africa murmuring under the slave-whip, India challenging her plunderers' crime, Ireland who hurled out the alien oppressor. Rally against your own exploiters in time!

Then forward ye workers, freedom awaits you, O'er all the world on the land and the sea. On with the fight for the cause of humanity. March, march ye toilers and the world shall be free.

Now while in secret our rulers are plotting Furies of slaughter to stave off their fall. Only united the people can thwart them Shatter their war designs and bring peace to all.

Then forward ye workers, freedom awaits you, O'er all the world on the land and the sea. On with the fight for the cause of humanity. March, march ye toilers and the world shall be free.

I found no pages dedicated to Prince Albert or Eddie in tumblr, so I wanted to ask here if is not a problem.

I read a theory a while ago that Eddie died due to syphilis and that his brother George got sick around the same time as his brother, but luckily he recovered.

Now, I remember reading somewhere that Eddie and George used to share mistresses.

Could it be that George too had syphilis when he got sick at the same time his brother did, and it was probably the same mistress that got them both infected?

They said George had typhoid fever, but then again they said the same for Eddie, to cover his true illness.

Was it syphilis or was it typhoid fever what got the two brothers almost killed, almost in the same time? Are there other theories?

Thank you

I do not mind answering a question about Albert Victor! I do think it was rumored that he died from syphilis, but that's not true.

From my understanding, AV died from influenza (which I think is what the newspaper said also). He did have gonorrhea at some point but was treated for it. I heard somewhere that he caught the disease in India but who knows.

The reason that historians feel confident to confirm that AV actually did have a sexual disease is because there is a surviving letter from the prince to his doctor describing his symptoms which resemble gonorrhea.

I feel like a few ask have brought up conspiracy theories recently and sadly I am boring and tend to not believe them. I just think royals (especially in those days) have too many people around at all times for a lie that interesting to be kept.

I am also not really aware of the ins and outs of syphilis, but I feel like it would have affected George's wife and children (if he had it) so very unlikely.

Lot of people still don’t realise it, 9/11 just didn’t impact American millennials/80/90s born children of the time but it impacted everyone around the world! Overnight the news was on every Indian television, images of the attack on printed in colour on newspapers, our classroom was full of talks of evil terrorists!

I was 8, growing up in an already “terrorist/insurgent prone zone” patrolled by the Indian Army; the attack simply amplified our fear in our civilians and increased the so called security leading upto more surveillance!

Collectively everyone was unconsciously looking for bombs everywhere, parents were worried about surprise attacks, public transport gained more security checks, airports turned into literal human scan centres and all this happened in my part of India because—as if the Twin Towers had existed on our land.

Now that we have grown up with this constant borrowed tragedy, watched countless tales of the event from different pov, and at last looked at the atrocities done by The US around the world, it becomes really disturbingly difficult to sympathise with the actual victims without thinking about—what about people in Iraq, what about people in Latin America, what about people in Vietnam. Innocents died everywhere— but why do we only mourn one set of human tragedy?

As someone around for 9-11 and the "NEVER FORGET NUMBER #1 GREATEST TRAGEDY EVER IN HISTURY" response to it I am in thrilled and invigorated by the fact that younger people just make amogus memes and TikTok nonsense about it. A huge chunk of America cared more about it than any entire genocide and thought you would cry learning about it. They hoped it'd make every generation patriotically angry forever and ever and want to join the military. Instead you Photoshop the towers into squidwards house and shit. Never stop lol

Bengali Language Classes Near Me:Find the Best Tutors and Online Courses Near You

Learning Bengali and finding Online Bengali Tutor may initially seem daunting, but there are numerous resources available to you that will make learning it simpler.

Tutors are available to assist in mastering Bengali with tailored lessons tailored to meet your individual needs and goals, as well as introduce you to its culture and history.

TalkingBees

Unlock one of the world's most vibrant languages with Online Bengali Class/lessons! No matter if you're starting from scratch or an intermediate learner seeking to deepen their abilities, these classes are tailored specifically towards meeting your interests and goals.

Survival Bengali lessons, necessary for traveling abroad in countries where English isn't widely spoken, as well as cultural studies courses are available at talkingbees.com. Students benefiting from conversational Bengali include business professionals seeking international clients and markets; those married to Bengali-speaking spouses; travelers planning a round-the-world journey or simply those interested in the culture of India and Bangladesh.

Audiobooks

Bengali (Bangla) is one of Asia's most widely spoken languages, boasting over 300 million speakers globally. For those wishing to broaden their global understanding and explore Asian culture, learning Bengali may prove rewarding; however, mastering its writing system may prove more daunting for students who may only be familiar with English-based alphabets or have limited exposure.

One effective way of developing Bengali skills is using audiobooks, which can both increase reading comprehension and facilitate decoding. Audiobooks can also benefit students working on grade-level homework or class assignments; their visual follow along feature allows struggling readers to access texts that meet their decoding capabilities easily; many audiobooks even come equipped with author interviews for further understanding the text - audiobooks offer an entertaining and effective learning tool! Using audiobooks for Bengali learning can be both entertaining and beneficial.

Cultural associations

Uning one or more foreign languages is beneficial both personally and professionally, from being competitive in global economies to connecting with friends and family abroad - learning languages is a vital skill that should not be neglected.

Bengali schools can be found throughout the United States, particularly where expats from Bangladesh or West Bengal reside. These organizations help people of all ages learn how to speak, read, and write Bengali.

TalkingBees try to effort to spread Bengali language Classes and culture among children living in anywhere, and provide them with lessons on it as well as basic Islamic education and other cultural activities. Individual lessons or packages of lessons tailored for two or more are available; beginners might learn survival Bengali for short trips while advanced learners might focus on building their business acumen, purchasing overseas property or connecting with Bengali-speaking communities.

Newspapers

Newspapers provide an endless source of information. Their coverage ranges from politics and science, history and economy to sports, entertainment technology culture and more. Reading newspapers from an early age can expand students' horizons beyond their city; assist with exam preparation both inside and outside school; provide an avenue for debate among peers; and can even serve as an initiating factor for debate between classmates.

Newspaper writing styles also help students develop their language skills, teaching them to write with clarity, understand sentence structures, and become acquainted with idiomatic expressions. Reading daily newspaper also cultivates an inquisitive mind that is eager to explore, think critically and stay informed.

Focusing and concentration are also paramount in an age of increased screen time, making this activity an excellent way for students to unplug from screens and find balance in their lives.

Podcasts

Podcasts help students improve their language skills in numerous ways. From word recognition (including decoding) and listening comprehension to prosody, or the pattern of stress and intonation that marks speech, podcasts provide learners with invaluable opportunities for language development. They also enable learners to practice pronunciation with native speakers of their target language - an essential step toward fluency.

Podcasting provides students with an effective means of creating original content - something Bloom's Taxonomy considers one of its highest levels: creation. Studies have also shown that using podcasting in classroom settings can improve student engagement, retention, and knowledge of a subject area.

Austin Bangla School is a joint effort between expatriate Austinites and Bangladeshis living here to reacquaint Austin with their cultural roots, especially Bengali culture. Every summer this group provides Bengali lessons for children of all ages both small group lessons as well as one-on-one. Their goal is to offer fun yet immersive Bengali language experiences while teaching both spoken and written Bengali languages.

Study in India shows kids use different math skills at work vs. school

New Post has been published on https://sunalei.org/news/study-in-india-shows-kids-use-different-math-skills-at-work-vs-school/

Study in India shows kids use different math skills at work vs. school

In India, many kids who work in retail markets have good math skills: They can quickly perform a range of calculations to complete transactions. But as a new study shows, these kids often perform much worse on the same kinds of problems as they are taught in the classroom. This happens even though many of these students still attend school or attended school through 7th or 8th grades.

Conversely, the study also finds, Indian students who are still enrolled in school and don’t have jobs do better on school-type math problems, but they often fare poorly at the kinds of problems that occur in marketplaces.

Overall, both the “market kids” and the “school kids” struggle with the approach the other group is proficient in, raising questions about how to help both groups learn math more comprehensively.

“For the school kids, they do worse when you go from an abstract problem to a concrete problem,” says MIT economist Esther Duflo, co-author of a new paper detailing the study’s results. “For the market kids, it’s the opposite.”

Indeed, the kids with jobs who are also in school “underperform despite being extraordinarily good at mental math,” says Abhijit Banerjee an MIT economist and another co-author of the paper. “That for me was always the revelation, that the one doesn’t translate into the other.”

The paper, “Children’s arithmetic skills do not transfer between applied and academic math,” is published today in Nature. The authors are Banerjee, the Ford Professor of Economics at MIT; Swati Bhattacharjee of the newspaper Ananda Bazar Patrika, in Kolkata, India; Raghabendra Chattopadhyay of the Indian Institute of Management in Kolkata; Duflo, the Abdul Latif Jameel Professor of Poverty Alleviation and Development Economics at MIT; Alejandro J. Ganimian, a professor of applied psychology and economics at New York University; Kailash Rajaha, a doctoral candidate in economics at MIT; and Elizabeth S. Spelke, a professor of psychology at Harvard University.

Duflo and Banerjee shared the Nobel Prize in Economics in 2019 and are co-founders of MIT’s Jameel Abdul Lateef Poverty Action Lab (J-PAL), a global leader in development economics.

Three experiments

The study consists largely of three data-collection exercises with some embedded experiments. The first one shows that 201 kids working in markets in Kolkata do have good math skills. For instance, a researcher, posing as an ordinary shopper, would ask for the cost of 800 grams of potatoes sold at 20 rupees per kilogram, then ask for the cost of 1.4 kilograms of onions sold at 15 rupees per kilo. They would request the combined answer — 37 rupees —  then hand the market worker a 200 rupee note and collect 163 rupees back. All told, the kids working in markets correctly solved this kind of problem from 95 to 98 percent of the time by the second try.

However, when the working children were pulled aside (with their parents’ permission) and given a standardized Indian national math test, just 32 percent could correctly divide a three-digit number by a one-digit number, and just 54 percent could correctly subtract a two-digit number from another two-digit number two times. Clearly, the kids’ skills were not yielding classroom results.

The researchers then conducted a second study with 400 kids working in markets in Delhi, which replicated the results: Working kids had a strong ability to handle market transactions, but only about 15 percent of the ones also in school were at average proficiency in math.

In the second study, the researchers also asked the reverse question: How do students doing well in school fare at market math problems? Here, with 200 students from 17 Delhi schools who do not work in markets, they found that 96 percent of the students could solve typical problems with a pencil, paper, unlimited time, and one opportunity to self-correct. But when the students had to solve the problems in a make-believe “market” setting, that figure dropped to just 60 percent. The students had unlimited time and access to paper and pencil, so that figure may actually overestimate how they would fare in a market.

Finally, in a third study, conducted in Delhi with over 200 kids, the researchers compared the performances of both “market” and “school” kids again on numerous math problems in varying conditions. While 85 percent of the working kids got the right answer to a market transaction problem, only 10 percent of nonworking kids correctly answered a question of similar difficulty, when faced with limited time and with no aids like pencil and paper. However, given the same division and subtraction problems, but with pencil and paper, 59 percent of nonmarket kids got them right, compared to 45 percent of market kids.

To further evaluate market kids and school kids on a level playing field, the researchers then presented each group with a word problem about a boy going to the market and buying two vegetables. Roughly one-third of the market kids were able to solve this without any aid, while fewer than 1 percent of the school kids did.

Why might the performance of the nonworking students decline when given a problem in market conditions?

“They learned an algorithm but didn’t understand it,” Banerjee says.

Meanwhile, the market kids seemed to use certain tactics to handle retail transactions. For one thing, they appear to use rounding well. Take a problem like 43 times 11. To handle that intuitively, you might multiply 43 times 10, and then add 43, for the final answer of 473. This appears to be what they are doing.

“The market kids are able to exploit base 10, so they do better on base 10 problems,” Duflo says. “The school kids have no idea. It makes no difference to them. The market kids may have additional tricks of this sort that we did not see.” On the other hand, the school kids had a better grasp of formal written methods of divison, subtraction, and more.

Going farther in school

The findings raise a significant point about students skills and academic progress. While it is a good thing that the kids with market jobs are proficient at generating rapid answers, it would likely be better for the long-term futures if they also did well in school and wound up with a high school degree or better. Finding a way to cross the divide between informal and formal ways of tackling math problems, then, could notably help some Indian children.

The fact that such a divide exists, meanwhile, suggests some new approaches could be tried in the classroom.

Banerjee, for one, suspects that part of the issue is a classroom process making it seem as if there is only one true route to funding an arithmetic answer. Instead, he believes, following the work of co-author Spelke, that helping students reason their way to an approximation of the right answer can help them truly get a handle on what is needed to solve these types of problems.

Even so, Duflo adds, “We don’t want to blame the teachers. It’s not their fault. They are given a strict curriculum to follow, and strict methods to follow.”

That still leaves open the question of what to change, in concrete classroom terms. That topic, it happens, is something the research group is in the process of weighing, as they consider new experiments that might address it directly. The current finding, however, makes clear progress would be useful.

“These findings highlight the importance of educational curricula that bridge the gap between intuitive and formal mathematics,” the authors state in the paper.

Support for the research was provided, in part, by the Abdul Latif Jameel Poverty Action Lab’s Post-Primary Education Initiative, the Foundation Blaise Pascal, and the AXA Research Fund.
