Download or read book Manik Da written by Nemai Ghosh and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2011-04-15 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Download or read book Manik written by Amo Jones and published by . This book was released on 2018-10 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Download or read book How to Start a Sentence Words to Begin Sentences written by Manik Joshi and published by Manik Joshi. This book was released on 2014-10-25 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Download or read book Manik Sarkar Real And The Virtual written by Dinesh Kanji and published by Prabhat Prakashan. This book was released on 2021-01-19 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Download or read book Memories of a Cairo Fugitive written by KRISHNA WASHBURN and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2012-03-14 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After a hasty escape to Egypt to avoid punishment for his partner, Lord Greenwich's vast financial crimes, former Mombasa solicitor and gigolo, Manik Mudigonda, is forced to adapt to a life without parties and without company in pre-World War I Cairo. Once again, the rejected Brahmin prince from Benares tries to find a niche for himself in an alien land that doesn't initially seem to have a niche for a piebald, red-eyed, bulimic criminal lawyer without much self confidence, and yet it is in arid, claustrophobic, poorly governed British Egypt that Manik's professional and personal lives come into full bloom. Not only does Manik's legal career flourish against all odds, fighting for his criminal clients' rights to appeal, coping with embedded corruption, racism, and constant condescention, but also he succeeds at initiating his first monogamous relationship, hidden from the disapproving glare of Egyptian culture. An ode to resiliance in the face of unusual hardship, the synchronicity of strength and fragility of the human psyche, and the elusive, inexplicable nature of love, Manik Mudigonda tries to narrate his life, if for no other reason than to try to remember.

Download or read book Vibro Acoustics written by Dhanesh N. Manik and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-04-07 with total page 493 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

In the midst of an election, there are too many powerful forces working against them.

Verb followed by --ING form or an Infinitive 17. Use of Prepositions 18. The Passive With GET 19. Middle Voice Exercise -- 01 Exercise -- 02 Exercise -- 03 Sample This: VOICE - Definition Voice refers to the form of a verb that shows whether the subject of a sentence performs the action or is affected by it. ACTIVE VOICE - Definition The form of a verb in which the subject is the person or thing that performs the action. Example: They finished the work. [subject -- “they”, verb -- “finished”, object -- “work”] In this sentence, the subject (they) acts on the object (work). Other Examples: The teacher praises him. She posted the letter. 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. [subject -- “work”, passive verb -- “was finished”, object -- “them”] In this example, the subject (work) is not the doer; it is being acted upon by the doer ‘them’) Other Examples: He is praised by the teacher. The letter was posted by her New books are bought by me. His birthday will be celebrated by us. WHEN TO USE PASSIVE VOICE (1). You should use passive voice when you do not know the active subject. (2). When you want to make the active object more important. (3). When the active subject is obvious. (4). When you want to emphasize the action of the sentence rather than the doer of the action. (5). Passive voice is frequently used to describe scientific or mechanical processes (6). Passive voice is often used in news reports: (7). When active voice does not sound good. (8). When you want to make more polite or formal statements. (9). You can use passive voice to avoid responsibility. (10). You can also use passive voice for sentence variety in your writing. (11). You can also use passive voice when you want to avoid extra-long subjects. Changing Active Voice Into Passive Voice Rule 1: Move the object of the active voice into the position of the subject (front of the sentence) in the passive voice. And move the subject of the active voice into the position of the object in the passive voice. Rule 2: Passive voice needs a helping verb to express the action. Put the helping verb in the same tense as the original active sentence. The main verb of the active voice is always changed into past participle (third form of the verb) in different ways. Rule 3: Place the active sentence's subject into a phrase beginning with the preposition ‘by’. Rule 4: If the object in an active voice sentence is a pronoun (me, us, you, him, her, they, it), it changes in passive voice sentence as follows: me -- I; us -- we; you -- you; him -- he; her -- she; them -- they; it – it Rule 5: Subject- Verb Agreement Make the first verb agree with the new subject in passive voice. Rule 6: When there are two objects (direct object and indirect object), only one object is interchanged. The second object remains unchanged. 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

Download or read book Signs written by Manik Bandyopadhyay and published by Leftword Books. This book was released on 2021 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.
