A review of the novel ‘When it’s over’ by Barbara Ridley

A review of the novel ‘When it’s over’ by Barbara Ridley There is no denying the fact that Barbara Ridley’s historical fiction novel,  When It’s Over , is a wonderfully written story centered on the opinionated situation in England during World War II. Based on a true story, it’s shown from side to side the eyes of Lena, a young Jewish woman from Czechoslovakia.   Lena meets Otto, a German fugitive who is vigorous in intelligence gathering, in a small cafe in Prague in 1938 where she comes to hear news of the fighting on the front line. Swept away by her belief in the left-wing activists and their fight against Hitler, she moves with Otto to Paris to go on with his work. According to the gist of the novel, Lena Kulkova, who is Jewish, becomes involved with the underground resistance movement, as well as with Otto, a German-Jewish refugee. Lena has a troubled relationship with her strict father and, other than sadness at leaving behind her mother and younger sister; Lena does not lo

Loneliness

Loneliness In the wake of peace and harmony To generate base under the greenwood trees, In the piles of leaves dried and green; To grow and deteriorate for sequential flow.  Not for lust but for least of life Which is immersed in deep thought? And co-sequential flow in dearth Whoever knows the hidden mystery? To start and fly over the sky.  And the ocean in order to create For knowing the plants, creeper and herbs  Immersed in the deep sense in the cave Hills, rocks and sand and heaps of leaves Not knowing someone is excited and scary in motion To see the animals very ferocious and heinous The thing which lags behind. That are found and rescued from the unusual  In the land which is the place without people But suitable to take abode forever Like the spiritual beams glittered in the waves Over the sky and in motion glittering Like the disappearance of the lost hopes  And aspiration to flow on the earth As if the dearth and demand to sho

My 'The Reel Sisters Review' by O' Henry

My 'The Reel Sisters Review' by O' Henry There is no denying the fact that the tale of bonafide sisters follows five women who are part of a group identified as the Reel Sisters where each character represents a part of a fly fishing rig. As a fly fishing angler in my opinion this story struck habitat in more than a few customs. What happens when a stripped girl is swept downriver and is rescued by a group of women fly anglers? The Reel Sisters is that story. Up till now this is not just a story concerning women fly fishing, this is a story about life.  According to O’ Henry, a life is made up of sobs, smiles, and sniffles and sniffles predominating. It doesn’t issue whether we are female or male. We have all practiced some of what these women have gone through. Following the five protagonists on their adventures as anglers, the reader comes to make out how each one fits into a full fishing rig. The women in the book demonstrate that fly fishing has no barriers w

'A Day in Eternity' by Elinor Lyon, my favourite book

 'A Day in Eternity' by Elinor Lyon, My Favourite Book It gives me immense pleasure that  ‘ A Day in Eternity’ by Elinor Lyon is an outstanding contribution for younger generation where the writer has given some message of freshness and vigor of mind which a man can change his lot by virtue of explorations, merits and hardihood. The poetry of John Magee is magically woven into the story where the transcendence of time and place, and the structure of the typeset as they grow up, soar, and flutter through the rising action, is stimulating. The truth-seeking component adds appreciably to the scheme, while also making the book stimulating. He was spell bound  on persistent to England and his feeling affection for, author Elinor Lyon and at the age of 19 he finally went back as a pilot officer with the Canadian Royal Air Force. Being enthusiastic with freedom and powered by a Super marine Spitfire, he “trod the untrespassed blessedness of space and touched the face of God,

Drift Velocity and Current Phenomena

It is a significant fact that all free electrons move around due to their thermal energy even if there is no current present. However as this motion is completely random then the net effect is no overall movement. To be part of a current they have to exhibit a drift velocity in a given direction Let us consider the two electron paths: Both display random motion as their thermal kinetic energy causes them to move, colliding with the fixed positive ions that make up a metal’s structure as they go.  The first electron shows very little change in displacement, the second has moved about the same distance as the first but shows a definite displacement to the right - it has a drift superimposed on its random motion. Therefore we can say the second electron is probably part of an electrical current and the first is not. When the overall effect on all the electrons is taken into account this small drift shown by each electron provides a current, whilst when all electrons in the first exam

Introducing Kinetics

There is no denying the fact that Kinetics is the learning of how fast (the rate) a reaction progresses. The rate of a reaction is a physical property of a reaction and is measured by the change in some reaction quantity (e.g. volume, mass, concentration) per unit time. The most common method used to calculate the rate of reaction is to measure the change in concentration of the reactant(s) per second. The rate becomes, rate = - ( change in concentration of reactant in mol dm-3 ) / time in s {or, rate = change in concentration of product / time} This gives the unit of mol dm-3 s-1 for the rate of a reaction. The rate of a reaction may be represented by a mathematical equation related to the chemical equation for a reaction. E.g. for the simple hydrolysis reactions of halo alkanes, SN1 : the most important reaction, or the rate determining step, is the breaking of the C-halogen bond - The rate equation for this reaction is written as, where, k = the rate const
