Languages : en
Pages : 87
Book Description
Satyajit Ray, known to his intimates as Manik-da, remains India's most respected name in international film circles. This book reveals in its simplicity the ease and camaraderie between Satyajit Ray, one of India's finest film-makers, and Nemai Ghosh, photographer extraordinaire. Manik-da is the latter's endeavour to depict the man behind the director's mask. Ghosh first worked with Ray on Goopy Gyne Bagha Byne, and Ray immediately found in him a kindred spirit who intuitively understood his requirements - and whom he understood. Thus was formed a partnership that spanned over a quarter of a century. In the process, Ghosh was able to photograph Ray at work and play, capturing on film the many moods of the master director. This nuanced and lucid translation from the Bengali original, which includes a perceptive Foreword by Sharmila Tagore, presents to the English reader Ghosh's thoughts on Ray with over fifty exquisite, never-before-seen photographs.

Book Description
I'm Beatrice Kennedy, but everyone calls me Beat. I live a low-key life, fresh out of college and drifting from town to town until I find my home. I love music, and how it stirs even the deepest and untouched parts of your soul. Depending on what you choose to listen to, would depend on what it touches. It's the drug we all damper in, only different strains. My strain is Jazz. The smooth instrumental strums that take over me. The sound of cigar smoke, bourbon and an old dusty fedora hat. My strain wasn't rap, and it sure wasn't laced with some A-class shit like murky blue eyes casted down from the Lord and the Devil's handcrafted smile. I knew who he was--the whole world did. One fateful night set off a chain of events, events that no one was coming back from. You can't save people who don't want to be saved. You can't pull them up from the ocean when they've latched themselves to an anchor. Love was my anchor, destruction was the water that was drowning me, and the rope that was so tightly clamped around my ankles, was woven with the lyrics of Aeron Romanov-Reed, also known as, 'Manik. He steals hearts from all around the world, but one night, he stole something that wasn't his to steal. Me.

Pages : 114
Book Description
This Book Covers The Following Topics: How to Start a Sentence Using ‘AS’ Using ‘AFTER’ and ‘BEFORE’ Using ‘AT’ Using ‘BY’ Using ‘FOR/FROM Using ‘IF’ Using ‘OF/ON/OUT’ Using ‘TO’ Using ‘IN’ Using ‘WITH’ Using ‘WH-WORDS’ ‘Asking Questions’ Using ‘VERB WORD’ Using ‘ING’ FORM of VERBS Using ‘PAST PARTICIPLES’ Using ‘-LY Words’ Using ‘PRONOUNS’ Transitional Expressions Miscellaneous Exercises: 1(A) and 1(B) Exercises: 2(A) and 2(B) Sample This: There are different ways to start a sentence in English. Using pronouns (I, we, you, they, he, she, it) is the most popular way to begin a sentence. But there are many other words that are widely used to start a sentence. They might be question words (what, where, etc.). They might be words formed from verbs, ending in –ing, -ed, -en, etc. Besides, words such as ‘to’ ‘in’ ‘with’, ‘if’, ‘after’ are also used to begin a sentence. Here, you will learn various words and phrases to start a sentence with. Important Note: Starting a sentence with ‘and’ or ‘but’ is correct or not! Using ‘And’ or ‘But’ to begin a sentence is generally considered grammatically Incorrect. But there is no hard and fast rule in this regard. So, you can use ‘And’ or ‘But’ to begin a sentence. But avoid excessive use of these words to begin a sentence. Use these words at the beginning of a sentence only when they really give strength to your language. Note: It is said that a sentence should not be begun with a conjunction of any kind, especially one of the FANBOYS (for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so). But this is not a hard and fast rule. Particularly in spoken English, starting a sentence with ‘And’ or ‘But’ is common. 01. AS (used in place of ‘when’; while something else is happening) As a person ages, his body weakens physically. As another year draws to a close, our attention turns to a new year. As news of PM's hospitalization spread, fans and admirers began lining up outside the hospital. As the summer season approaches, I look forward to eating ice-creams. As the day progressed, over a hundred protestors gathered at the office. As the situation in the town worsened, jittery people rushed back to their homes. As the train pulled into the station, passengers rushed towards it. As the war widened, they had to leave the city. As we grow older, we are more in control of our lives. As we progress, it is going to become more and more difficult. 02. AS (used in place of ‘because’) As a policeman myself, I am aware of all the laws. As he got busy, his wife picked up the son. As sanitary workers are absent on most of the days, sweeping of roads is also irregular resulting in the trash along the road. As the electric cables are hanging loosely, it may anytime lead to a major accident if any passer-by comes into contact. As the night temperature rose owing to the cloudy sky, there was some respite from cold conditions. 03. AS (used in place of ‘like’) As a great poet, he played with words. As in the past, the party president distanced herself from the government’s unpopular decision. 04. AS (used to introduce two events happening at the same time) As the bus was nearing, he moved aside. As the forces were conducting searches, the militants fired upon them, triggering an encounter. As the mercury levels are dropping each day, difficulties for the poor are constantly rising. 05. AS (used to add information) As you know, I have sent him a letter. 06. AS (used to show ‘in the way’) As an interim arrangement, he directed the authorities not to return the land. As part of the deal, they will hand over control of five towns. As penance, he vowed to never scold any kid ever again. POPULAR IDIOMS AND PHRASES WITH “AS”: AS AGAINST SOMETHING (meaning: in comparison or contrast with something) -- As against last time four days, the fair will last for five days this year. As against the estimated revenues of dollar 400 million for April, only dollar 100 million had been received during the month. AS AND WHEN (meaning: at the time when (used to refer to an uncertain future event)) -- As and when I get a chance to settle into my retired life, I will think about things to do. AS EARLY AS (meaning: done before the expected, usual or planned time) -- As early as 5 a.m. on Sunday, she was surprised to see the milkman. AS FAR AS (meaning: facts or an opinion about a particular aspect of something) -- As far as we can know right now, we are sticking to everything as planned. AS FOR SOMEBODY/SOMETHING (meaning: with regard to; used to start talking about somebody/something) As for children between the ages of 6 and 12 years, a fee of dollar 1 needs to be paid to enter the zoo. As for David, he is doing fine. As for the difficulty in searching for honest people, it is not such a big task.

Signs

Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 146
Book Description
Signs (Chinha), written in 1946, was Manik Bandyopadhyay's fifteenth novel, and is something of a hidden gem of Bengali literature.The novel is set in the mass uprisings that Calcutta witnessed in protest against the trial and sentencing of Captain Rashid Ali of the Indian National Army. These outbursts of popular anger were initiated by students, and involved large sections of the working people.The author weaves together a number of episodes, meetings and partings happening simultaneously at different locations through a kind of narrative 'montage'. The narration represents this revolutionary moment witnessed through the eyes of myriads of people who make it, whether by participating in it or by being caught up in it, by remaining on the margin or by trying to use it to their own purpose, or even by resisting it. It is a rare attempt to catch the internal dynamics of the action by focussing on the fast-changing relationships among its speaking, thinking, acting human agents, when the singular motive force of the objective situation is manifested in the multiplicity of responses.Signs was such a departure from the writing of the time that the author noted, 'It is written in a new technique. I do not know whether it should be called a novel.' Manik Bandyopadhyay failed to interest his publisher into issuing a second print during his lifetime. It was published again after his death.This is the first English translation of this modernist masterpiece, introduced and annotated by scholar and activist Malini Bhattacharya.

Publisher: Prabhat Prakashan
ISBN: 9352666429
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 119
Book Description
What are the forces that have been zealously trying to portray the 19 years of anarchic rule; supported by dacoits; criminals; and murderers; as the regime of the 'Messiah of the poor'? Isn't it highly strange and surprising that none from the journalist community has even dared to write against Manik Sarkar; who has given patronage to political mafias and corrupt politicians in the state of Tripura? Why a person who have been enjoying a lavish lifestyle with the money of the poor is portrayed as someone as simple as Mahatma Gandhi? All these questions have been disturbing my mind. The purpose of this book is to seek the answers of these very questions. The real motto of this book is to expose; at the national level; the intellectual and ideological hollowness of the communist parties; to unravel the anti-national activities of the communists; to unveil the real face of so-called 'Mr. Clean' Manik Sarkar; and to highlight the crimes and misdeeds of the communists of Tripura in the last decades. MANIK SARKAR: REAL AND THE VIRTUAL by DINESH KANJI: "MANIK SARKAR: REAL AND THE VIRTUAL" is a book authored by Dinesh Kanji that provides a comprehensive look at the life and political career of Manik Sarkar, a prominent political figure from the state of Tripura, India. The book explores both the real-world accomplishments and the virtual impact of Sarkar's leadership. Key Aspects of the Book "MANIK SARKAR: REAL AND THE VIRTUAL": Political Legacy: The book examines Manik Sarkar's role in Tripura's politics and his contributions to the state's development. Virtual Impact: Readers gain insight into how Sarkar's ideas and policies have had a virtual impact on the political discourse and aspirations of the people. Leadership Style: Dinesh Kanji provides an analysis of Sarkar's leadership style and its influence on the political landscape of Tripura. Dinesh Kanji is an author and researcher who has focused on the political landscape of India. "MANIK SARKAR: REAL AND THE VIRTUAL" offers a deeper understanding of a prominent leader's journey in the realm of politics.

I buy new books. We will celebrate his birthday. PASSIVE VOICE - Definition The form of a verb in which the subject is affected by the action of the verb. Important Note -- The object of the active voice becomes the subject in the passive voice. Example: The work was finished by them.

Rule 6: When there are two objects (direct object and indirect object), only one object is interchanged. The second object remains unchanged. The following Tenses Cannot Be Changed Into Passive Voice: 1. Present Perfect Continuous Tense 2. Past Perfect Continuous Tense 3. Future Continuous Tense 4. Future Perfect Continuous Tense

Vibro-Acoustics
Author: Dhanesh N. Manik
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1466581018
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 493
Book Description
The subject of vibro-acoustics is important for the design of machine elements and structures, to minimize sound generated by them. For better machine designing, it is necessary for machine designers (mechanical engineers) to have a thorough knowledge of vibro-acoustics. Furthermore, since the design cycles of machines have become shorter, designers will have to design quiet machines at the drawing-board stage rather than applying "band-aid" techniques after the machine has been built. Although there is common ground in the treatment of acoustics, the subject of vibration is not very fortunate. Those interested in low-frequency vibration are generally concerned with the modal approach of using natural frequencies and mode shapes, whereas those interested in vibro-acoustics in medium and high frequencies are generally concerned with the wave approach. Since both modal and wave approaches have their advantages, it is a good idea to study both together to get the best out of them. This is useful for a better understanding the physics of vibro-acoustics. Written for students and professionals interested in gaining knowledge, this book systematically integrates the relevant aspects of vibro-acoustics from various viewpoints.
