NAOURS, France A headlamp cuts through the darkness of a rough-hewn passage 100 feet underground to reveal an inscription: "James Cockburn 8th Durham L.I."
It's cut so clean it could have been left yesterday. Only the date next to it April 1, 1917 roots it in the horrors of World War I.
The piece of graffiti by a soldier in a British infantry unit is just one of nearly 2,000 century-old inscriptions that have recently come to light in Naours, a two-hour drive north of Paris. Many marked a note for posterity in the face of the doom that trench warfare a few dozen miles away would bring to many.
"It shows how soldiers form a sense of place and an understanding of their role in a harsh and hostile environment," said historian Ross Wilson of Chichester University in Britain.
Etchings, even scratched bas-reliefs, were left by many soldiers during the war. But those in Naours "would be one of the highest concentrations of inscriptions on the Western Front" that stretches from Switzerland to the North Sea, said Wilson.
The site's proximity to the Somme battlefields, where more than a million men were killed or wounded, adds to the discovery's importance. "It provides insight into how they found a sense of meaning in the conflict," said Wilson.

The graffiti by a soldier in a British infantry unit is one of nearly 2,000 century-old inscriptions that have recently come to light in Naours, a two-hour drive north of Paris. The underground city is a 2-mile-long complex of tunnels with hundreds of chambers dug out over centuries. Many marked a note for posterity in the face of the doom in the trenches of the Somme battlefields a few dozen miles away.

Chautauqua has laid claim to being anointed the best sprinter in the world after scoring a TJ Smith Stakes win that verged on the impossible.
On a day dominated by leaders, Chautauqua settled last in the elite field of 10 and powered down the outside to nail Lord Of The Sky in the final bound.
The two horses currently rated the fastest racehorses in the world, Terravista and Lankan Rupee, were left in his wake in finishing third and ninth respectively.
"Superstar horses do things you don't expect them to do and he did that today," co-trainer Michael Hawkes said
"He's just gone up another cog again. He could be anything really."
Chautauqua is likely to get a chance to add to his Group One tally with John Hawkes nominating the All Aged Stakes on the final day of the Sydney autumn carnival as a target.
Tommy Berry picked up the mount on Chautauqua in a win which could usher in a new era for the young jockey.
A long-time stable jockey for Gai Waterhouse, Berry has adopted a freelance role in the past few months and has become the go-to man for Hawkes Racing.
The new partnership enjoyed its biggest payday since then with Chautauqua's win in Monday's $2.5 million race.
It didn't come without some anxiety.

Brazils economy is expected to contract this year. But the biggest downer in the country is the enormous Petrobras Petrobras scandal that is pulling the rug out from under thousands of low skilled workers.
Civil construction is an important economic sector in any economy. That is particularly true in an emerging one, where governments and the private sector are busying building uproads and refineries.
But political scandal and wide spread white collar crime at Petrobras is damaging that sector something fierce. In the first two months of the year, 35,500 jobs were lost in civil construction, many of them low skilled labor.
This is a problem that has no end in sight. You wonder where many of these workers are going to go, asks Fernanda Lima, CEO of Gradual Investments, a $6.5 billion money manager in Sao Paulo. Construction company layoffs are going to weigh on the economy.
Petrobras is currently being investigated for a number of scandals. The biggest ones involve the oil giants gouging billions out of public coffers by allowing construction firms to over-charge for refineries. There were kickbacks paid. Offshore accounts were opened. A few guys got rich. A few guys went to jail. And now two of the companies involved in the scheme, OAS and Galvao Engenharia, have filed for bankruptcy protection.
Once loved by all, Petrobras is now the baneof Brazils existence as crisis leads to job destruction for over 30,000 low income construction workers.
Late last week, the Getulio Vargas Foundationthink tanksaid Brazil would lose an estimated $27.1 billion from potential GDP growth this year because of Petrobras cut backs and the impact those will have along the supply chain and, ultimately, in tax revenue to the state. The number included around $4.5 billion in tax losses from Brazils shrinking construction business alone.
Many construction companies are no longerreceiving government payments for work orders as Brasilia tries figuring out whether or not it is getting what it pays for. Petrobras caused unemployment to rise in civil construction, especially among those companies that were involved in building projects for them, Carlos Zveibil, president of the Sao Paulo Public Works Association told the Estado de Sao Paulo newspaper on Sunday.The economy is already fairly bad in a general sensebut this crisis is just another ingredient, he says.
In the northeastern state of Pernambuco, home to the questionable Petrobras refinery project known as the Abreu and Lima Refinery, work orders have ground to a halt. The project is still under construction, but not at the pace it was a year ago. The government is holding back payments. Nearly 90% of those people laid off werereleasedwithout explanationother than the investigation of fraud changing the project timeline. In Brazil, getting laid off without just cause is a lawsuit waiting to happen. And it is one laborers tend to always win.
In other words, the Petrobras scandal is like someone took a nuclear missile and exploded it in a sewage treatment plant.

Its impossible to have one perfect template for set up, since we all teach different subjects and grades, and have different personal styles. But there are some things to remember when organizing the physical classroom. Spatial design can have a huge impact on how well a classroom runs.
One thing I have learned is that students love an organized teacher but balk at over regimentation. Keep the classroom seamless in function. You dont need to draw arrows on the floor or number desks to get results.
Other aspects of classroom organization are saved for other posts.
Classroom on a Grid
Stand in the center of your room and survey the whole classroom. Think of your space as a grid in your minds eye. Notice your critical work areas (art station, books, student computers). Identify defined storage spaces for tools, supplies and filing. Are your spaces orderly and neat, and do all tools (computers, staplers) function? Can human traffic flow in and out smoothly? It can be fun to work with graph paper to organize your set up. If youre a real geek you can cut out models for desks and shelves (cut at the correct ratio) and put them on graph paper to play with the placement.
Efficiency Expert
Be your own efficiency expert. Consider how you move around the room to do your job and how the students need to move. Arrange to accommodate traffic flow and efficiency of movement. Keep the student computers, out of room tasks such as copying, and even discipline steps in mind. You dont have to be a traffic engineer to get it right for your room.
Student Seating
Last year I tried the reverse fan, forum, groups of two, four and six, inner and outer circles and traditional rows, just to name a few. I surveyed the students to discover their preferences (groups, of course). Mike the custodian quickly answered, rows when I asked him what was easiest to clean. The fact is there is no perfect seating arrangement. Age, class size and goals all dictate which way to seat your students. I personally ended up going back to traditional rows (because of easy student access) and occasionally forming temporary groups as needed.
