"The Shehnai of Bismillah Khan"

  Emperor Aurangzeb banned the playing of a musical instrument called Pungi in the Royal Residence for it had a shrill unpleasant sound. Pungi became the generic name for reeded noisemakers. Few had thought that it would one day be revived. A barber of a family of professional musicians, who had acess to the Royal palace, decided to improve the tonal quality of the Pungi. He chose a pipe with a natural hollow atem that was longer and broader than the Pungi and made seven holes on the body of the pipe. When he played on it, closing and opening some of the holes, soft and melodious sounds were produced. He played the instrument before royalty and everyone was impressed. The instrument so different from the Pungi had to be given a new name.

"The Fun They Had"

​​​​​​     Margie even wrote about that night in her diary. On the Page ​​​​​​headed 17 May 2157, she wrote, " Today Tummy found a real book!"

     It was a very old book. Margie's grandfather once said that when he was little boy his grandfather told him that there was a time when all stories were printed on paper.

     They turn the pages, which were yellow and crinkly, and it was awfully funny to read words that stood still instead of moving the way they were supposed to- on a screen, you know. And then when they turned back to the page before, it had the same words on it that it had had when they read it the first time.

    "Gee‚" said Tommy, "what a waste. When you are through with the book, you just throw it away, I guess. Our television screen must have had a million books on it and it's good for plenty more. I wouldn't throw it away."

    "Same with mine," said Margie. She was eleven(11) and hadn't seen as many telebooks as Tommy had. He was thirteen(13).

      She said, "Where did you find it?"

      "In my house."He pointed without looking, because he was busy reading. "In the attic."

   "What's it abouy?"

     "School."

    Margie was scornful."School?What's there to write about school? I hate school."

    Margie always hated school, but now she hated it more than ever. The machanical teacher had been giving her test in geography and she had been doing worse and worse until her mother had shaken her head sorrowfully and sent for the County Inspector.

"Nervous Tissue"

      All cells have the ability to respond appropriately to stimuli. However, the cells of the Nervous Tissue get excited very quickly and transmit this excitement very quickly from one place to another throughout the body. The brain, spinal cord and nerves are all made up of Nervous Tissue. The cells of nervous tissue are called Nerve Cells or Neurons. The cells in neuron have Nucleus and Cytoplasm. Long, thin hair-like branches emerge from it.

        A nerve cell can be up to one (1)meter long. Many Tantric Fibers come together through connective tissue to form a tantric.

     The sensation passing through Tantric Fibers is called Tantric Edification. Tantrik's guidance helps us to move our muscles as per our wish. The functional combination of nervous and muscular tissues is fundamental in almost all living organisms. Also, this combination provides movement to the animals as per the stimulus.

"Parts of Cells"

• Nucleus:- Different parts of the cell are colored in different colors depending on their chemical composition. Some areas appear darker and some lighter. In addition to iodine solution, we can also use fardin or ????????? blue solution to color the cells.
• Cytoplasm:- When we looked at slides of onion slices and human cheek cells, we saw a large area in each cell that was surrounded by a cell membrane. There are very few dhabas in the area. This is called ?????????.
• Endoplasmic Reticulum(ER):- The Endoplasmic Reticulum is a large system of membrane-bound tubes and sheets. These resemble long tubes or round or rectangular sacs (vesicles). There are two types of Endoplasmic Reticulum; Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (RER) and Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (SER).
• Golgi Apparatus:- The Golji Apparatus, described by Comillo Golji, is a system of membrane-bound flat vesicles arranged parallel to each other, which are called vesicles. These membranes are in contact with the  ?? membranes and hence form the second part of the complex cellular membrane system.
• Lysosome:-Lysosomes contain very powerful digestive enzymes which break down complex substances into simpler substances. When a cell becomes weak or dead due to disruption in cellular Metabolism, Lysosomes burst and enzymes destroy their own cells. Therefore Lysosome is also called 'Suicide Bag' of the cell.
• Mitochondria:- Mitochondria are the power house of the cell. Mitochondria are made of double membrane. The outer membrane is porous and the inner membrane is highly folded. Mitochondria are very amazing organelles because they contain their own DNA and cytosomes. Therefore, mitochondria make some of their own proteins.
• Playstid:-​​​​​​Plastids are located only in plant cells. There are two types of plastids; Chromoplast (coloured plastids) and Leucoplast (white and colored plastids) The chromoplast which contains chlorophyll pigment is called chloroplast. Plastids are like mitochondria in external structure. Like mitochondria, plastids also have their own DNA and ribosomes.
• Vacuoles:-Vacuoles are storage sacs of solid or liquid substances. The vacuoles in animal cells are small, whereas the vacuoles in plant cells are very large. Therefore, the cell is a basic structural unit of living organisms. It is also a basic functional unit of life.

"The Lake Isle of Innisfree"

I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree, 

 And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made:

 Nine bean-rows will I have there, a hive for the honeybee,

 And live alone in the bee-loud glade.

 And I shall have some peace there, for peace of comes dropping slow 

 Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings;

There midnight's are a glimmer, and noon a purple glow,

 And evening full of the linnest's wings. 

 I will arise and go now, for always night and day 

 I hear the lake water lapping with low sounds by the shore; 

 While I stand on the roadway, or the pavements grey, 

 I hear it in the deep heart's core.

"The Sound Of Music"

[Evelyn Glennie Listens to Sound without Hearing it]

​​​​​​​      Rush hour crowds jostle for position on the underground train platform. A slight girl, looking younger than her 17 years, was nervous yet excited as she felt the vibrations of the approaching train. It was her first day it the prestigious Royal Academy of Music in London and daunting enough for any teenager fresh from a Scottish farm. But this aspiring musician faced a bigger challenge then most: she was profoundly deaf.

      Evelyn Glennie's loss of hearing had been ​​​​​​gradual. her mother remember noticing something was wrong when the 8 years old everyone was a waiting to play the piano.  They called her name and she didn't move. I suddenly realised she hadn't heard,​​​ says Isabel Glennie. For quite a while Evelyn managed to conceal her growing deafness from friends and teachers. But by the time she was eleven her marks had deteriorated and her headmistress urged her parents to take  her to a specialist. It was then discovered that her hearing was severely in impaired as a result of gradual nerve damage. They were advised that she should be fitted with hearing aids and sent to a school for the deaf. "Everything suddenly looked black‚" says Evelyn.

     But Evelyn was not going to give up. She was​​​​ determined to lead a normal life and pursue her interest in music. One day she notice playing a girl playing xylophone and decided that she wanted to play is it too. Most of the teachers discouraged her but percussionist Ron Forbes spotted her potential. he be can buy turning to large in drum sir to different notes. "Don't listen through your ears," he would say, "try to sence it some other way." Says Evelyn, "Suddenly I realised I could feel the higher drum from the waist up and the lower ​​​​​​one from the waist down." Forbes repeated the exercise, and soon Evelyn discovered that she should certain notes in different parts of her body. "I had learnt to open my mind and body to sounds and vibrations." The rest was sheer determination and hard work.

    She never looked back from that point onwords. She tourned the United Kingdom with a youth orchestra and by the time was a sixteen(16),  she had decided to make music her life. She auditioned for the Royal Academy of Music and scored one of the highest marks in the history of the Academy. She gradually from orchestral work to solo performances. At the end of her 3 year course, she had a captured most of the top awards. 

      And for all this, Evelyn won't accept any hint of a heroic achievement. "If you work hard and no where you are going, you'll get there." And she got right to the top, the world's most sought-after multipercussionist with a mastery of some thousand instruments, and hectic international schedule.

     It is intriguing to Shivling functions of effortlessly without hearing. In our two-hour discussion she never missed a word. "Men with bushy beards give me trouble," she loughed "It is not just watching the lips it's 

"A Tour Like This"

        Today, on 28th November 2025, we went on a tour on behalf of the college. I was very excited for the tour since last night and I woke up at 3:15 in the night. I and my entire class were going on a tour for the first time. So we all were more excited than ever when Mam told us that we are going on tour on 28th November. In fact, our entire class used to talk more about the tour than that very day.  There was not as much study as tour talk.

      Hmm. Now let us move ahead on this topic. I, my friends and every girl in my class were very excited to go on the tour. Hmmm. It is a different matter that the girls did not want to go. Now all the girls who wanted to go were very excited that they were going on a tour for the first time so they should be well prepared. But mam had already told us that no girl would come to college either in a shorts or with make-up. Because we have to go to university and not to any fashion show and if a girl comes wearing make-up, we will not take her. That's why we all understand poor mam's words easily. 

      Hmmm. Now let's move a little further from this topic. I woke up at 3:15 in the night. Then I lay down for some time, after which I was about to fall asleep, then I remembered that my college uniform was not even being ironed. I got up and first washed my face. After that, I attached the lid of the press to the electric board and started ironing my uniform. After ironing my uniform, I lay down on the bed again for a while. After that I got bored. Then I looked at the mobile for a while. After that I saw the mobile till perhaps 4:23 in the night. Then I kept my mobile and started untying my hair to take bath, So that I don't fall asleep.
