Walking on the moon - Moon walker - part one

WALKING ON THE MOON – DAVID R. SCOTT – PART ONE

Sixty feet above the moon, the blast of our single rocket churns up a gray tumult of lunar dust that seems to engulf us. Blinded, I feel the rest of the way down “on the gauges”. With an abrupt jar, our lunar module, or LM, strikes the surface and shudders to rest. We have hit our target squarely a large amphitheater girded by mountains and a deep canyon, at the eastern edge of a vast plain.

Take the plunge - part two

TAKE THE PLUNGE – GLORIA EMERSON – PART TWO

None of that stuff was expected from any of us in the little beginners class. We were only to jump, after brief but intense instruction, with Istel’s newly designed parachute, to show that any dope could do it. It was a parachute with a thirty-two-foot canopy; a large cutout hole funneled escaping air. You steered with two wooden knobs instead of having to pull hard on the back straps, or risers. The new parachute increased lateral speed, slowed down the rate of descent, reduced oscillation. We were told we could even land standing up but that we should bend our knees and lean to one side. The beginners jumped at eight a.m., the expert sky divers performed their dazzling tricks later when a crowd came.

Take the plunge - part one

                          TAKE THE PLUNGE – GLORIA EMERSON – PART ONE

It was usually men who asked me why I did it. Some were amused, others puzzled. I didn’t mind the jokes in the newspaper office where I worked about whether I left the building by window, roof or in the elevator. The truth is that I was an unlikely person to jump out of an airplane, being neither graceful, daring nor self-possessed, I had a bad back, uncertain ankles and could not drive with competence because of deficient depth perception and a fear of all buses coming toward me. A friend joked that if I broke my bones I would have to be shot because I would never mend.

Whistling of Bird's - part three

WHISTLING OF BIRDS – PART THREE

Such a long, long winter, and the frost only broke yesterday. Yet it seems, already, we cannot remember it. It is strangely remote, like a far-off darkness. It is as unreal as a dream in the night. This is the morning of reality, when we are ourselves. This is natural and real, the glimmering of a new creation that stirs in us and about us. We know there was winter, long, fearful. We know the earth was strangled and mortified, we know the body of life was torn and scattered broadcast.

Whistling of Bird's - part two

WHISTLING OF BIRDS – PART TWO
          
All the time, whilst the earth lay chocked and killed and winter-mortified, the deep undersprings were quiet. They only wait for the ponderous encumbrance of the old order to give way, yield in the thaw, and there they are, a silver realm at once. Under the surge of ruin, unmitigated winter, lies the silver potentiality of all blossom. One day the black tide must spend itself and fade back. Then all-suddenly appears the crocus, hovering triumphant in the rear, and we know the order has changed, there is a  new regime, sound of a new Vive! Vive! Vive!

Whistling of Bird's - part one

WHISTLING OF BIRDS – D.H.LAWWRENCE 

The frost held for many weeks, until the birds were dying rapidly. Everywhere in the fields and under the hedges lay the ragged remains of lapwings, starlings, thrushes, redwings, innumerable ragged bloody cloaks of birds, when the flesh was eaten by invisible beasts of prey.

What is Charming Leisure fairyage

WHAT IS CHARMING LEISURE

LEISURE is a delightful and beautiful poem. The poet feels sorry at the preoccupation of man in daily pursuite of life. Man of the modern age does not have enough time to enjoy the beauty of natural objects of life lying around him. The poet says that we have no time to stand and stare at the charming sights and feel happy over them. In this regard, our lot is worse than animals. The cows and sheep have more time than we have to enjoy the beauty of a shady tree. Due to our preoccupation in life, we miss many happy and delightful sights.

War is another important cause of inflation. The war always creates inflation in the economy of a country for example; Pakistan was making progress by leaps and bounds before indo-Pakistan war 1965.
