![]() Tagore also left numerous drawings and paintings, and songs for which he wrote the music himself. Besides these, he wrote musical dramas, dance dramas, essays of all types, travel diaries, and two autobiographies, one in his middle years and the other shortly before his death in 1941. He is the author of several volumes of short stories and a number of novels, among them Gora (1910), Ghare-Baire (1916), and Yogayog (1929). The English renderings of his poetry, which include The Gardener (1913), Fruit-Gathering (1916), and The Fugitive (1921), do not generally correspond to particular volumes in the original Bengali and in spite of its title, Gitanjali: Song Offerings (1912), the most acclaimed of them, contains poems from other works besides its namesake. Among his fifty and odd volumes of poetry are Manasi (1890), Sonar Tari (1894), Gitanjali (1910), Gitimalya (1914), and Balaka (1916). For the world he became the voice of India's spiritual heritage and for India, especially for Bengal, he became a great living institution.Īlthough Tagore wrote successfully in all literary genres, he was first of all a poet. In fact his fame attained a luminous height, taking him across continents on lecture tours and tours of friendship. ![]() With his translations of some of his poems he became rapidly known in the West. Tagore had early success as a writer in his native Bengal. Tagore was knighted by the ruling British Government in 1915, but within a few years he resigned the honour as a protest against British policies in India. From time to time he participated in the Indian nationalist movement, though in his own non-sentimental and visionary way and Gandhi, the political father of modern India, was his devoted friend. He also started an experimental school at Shantiniketan where he tried his Upanishadic ideals of education. In his mature years, in addition to his many-sided literary activities, he managed the family estates, a project which brought him into close touch with common humanity and increased his interest in social reforms. He was educated at home and although at seventeen he was sent to England for formal schooling, he did not finish his studies there. Rabindranath Tagore was the youngest son of Debendranath Tagore, a leader of the Brahmo Samaj, which was a new religious sect in nineteenth-century Bengal and which attempted a revival of the ultimate monistic basis of Hinduism as laid down in the Upanishads. Rabindranath Tagore was highly influential in introducing the best of Indian culture to the West and vice versa, and he is generally regarded as the outstanding creative artist of the modern Indian subcontinent. ![]() Tagore introduced new prose and verse forms and the use of colloquial language into Bengali literature, thereby freeing it from traditional models based on classical Sanskrit. In translation his poetry was viewed as spiritual and mercurial however, his "elegant prose and magical poetry" remain largely unknown outside Bengal. Author of Gitanjali and its "profoundly sensitive, fresh and beautiful verse", he became the first non-European to win the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1913. Background of the song includes the place and date of the song written by Rabindranath, name of the newspaper or magazine the song was first published in and the name of the person who had prepared the notation or swaralipi. In the below list, only the most notable are shown.Rabindranath Tagore was a Bengali polymath who reshaped Bengali literature and music, as well as Indian art with Contextual Modernism in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Note that not all translations are of the same quality. In this volume, Mukherjee presents an analysis of Tagore’s political philosophyin order to fill what he perceives as a gap in the literature on Tagore and emphasizes the value of Tagore’s philosophy in contemporary political situations, both in India and the world. For instance, The Supreme Night, One Night and A Single Night are all translations of the same story. ![]() With many of Tagore's stories, there has been more than one translation by more than one translator.

![]() When Dorothy and the Scarecrow Encounter the Talking Apple Trees: A split-second glimpse of Judy Garland in black shoes when she should be wearing Ruby Slippers as she and the Scarecrow scramble away from the Apple-throwing trees. Keep an eye out as she cuts the Scarecrow down from his post in the corn field and throughout “If I Only Had a Brain.” When Dorothy Meets the Scarecrow in the Corn Field: Judy Garland’s braids shift from long to short and back again several times during the scene in which she first meets the Scarecrow. The cart was driven back and forth to create the resulting effect of the funnel cloud swooping and twisting across the prairie.ĭorothy’s Bed During the Tornado: The framework of Dorothy’s bedroom was constructed on a tilting cart that would jolt the set about, heaving furniture and tossing Dorothy about as she is swept up into the cyclone and dropped back down again. ![]() Hung from rigging above the set, the bottom was attached to a cart driven by two stagehands concealed beneath the soundstage floor. The Cyclone: The on-screen cyclone was constructed from chicken wire wrapped in muslin. Here, Fricke shares 17 moments that fans should watch for on the big screen, and dispels one grand myth surrounding The Wizard of Oz. Playbill spoke with John Fricke, the preeminent Wizard of Oz historian and author of seven books on both Oz and its star-Judy Garland, to glean an expert take on the film. The musical film is a touchstone for millions across the globe who have grown up under its spell. ![]() MGM’s 1939 classic The Wizard of Oz, filmed in the dawning days of Technicolor-and decades before CGI and high-tech special effects-is a hand-crafted cinematic achievement anchored by its extraordinary cast: Judy Garland as Dorothy, Ray Bolger as The Scarecrow, Jack Haley as The Tin Man, and Bert Lahr as The Cowardly Lion. Note that some swaps are skipped in this example, since the input contains a duplicate 1 element: i=0, j=0 ![]() Here’s what happens when the input is 1,1,2. So it seems reasonable that this would cover every possible swap.Īs with last week’s recursive problem, instrumentation can help illuminate the flow of control in a recursive algorithm. So (ignoring duplicates), we swap position 0 with positions 0, 1, …, n-1, position 1 with 1, 2, …, n-1, and so on until i=n. And j covers every position from i to the last element. Notice that i covers every position in nums from 0 to the last element. The key is to make sure we use all possible swap positions (except where the swap would have no effect because the source and destination elements are the same). Why does this process work? Since permutations are arrangements of the input values, it makes sense that we could generate these arrangements by swapping. If we sent a reference, we would overwrite the result of previous swaps. This is how we generate new permutations. One implementation detail: When we make the recursive call, we need to send a copy of nums, not just a reference to nums. To keep the code simple, we also do the swap in this case, though it has no effect since we’re swapping an element with itself. As a special case, we also make the recursive call when i=j. If they’re different, we swap them and recursively start the process again at the next starting position i+1. For each j (the current position), we’ll check the values at nums and nums. The iteration loop on j goes from i (the starting position) to the end of the current permutation, nums. We’ll use a combination of iteration and recursion. If it is, the current permutation is done, so we can add it to our list of results, and return: if i is past the end of the current permutationĪdd the current permutation to the result

The team, which includes Rain Ocampo (Michelle Rodriguez), must come together to shut down the facility to prevent the zombies and the virus from escaping the facility, but their path is blocked by a supercomputer known as the Red Queen (Michaela Dicker). While Alice is still trying to recollect her past, she discovers that the life of everyone in the team is in danger from zombies in the facility, who have been infected with the T-virus. A mysterious man named Matt (Eric Mabius) is also taken in by the group. The film follows Alice, who has partially lost her memory, inadvertently getting pulled into a highly secure underground facility in Raccoon City by a group of special military units from the Umbrella Corp. As such, the original film series is only relatively connected to the Resident Evil games.

Years later, in 1998, a grown up Claire (Kaya Scodelario) reunites with Chris (Robbie Amell), who is now a leader of a special force, in the city. The origin story begins in the early 1980s when its protagonists, siblings Claire Redfield and Chris Redfield, are in an orphanage. Chronologically, it also marks the first live-action appearance of some of the most prominent characters from the game. But the singular reason to watch this movie before the others is that it is closest to the original storyline of the gaming franchise, and shows a Raccoon City just before things turned horribly wrong.

Outside of the original Resident Evil series, the movies and TV shows include a rebooted film, three computer-generated (CG) animated films, one animated miniseries and one live-action TV series. ![]() Despite this, all of them were poorly received by critics and fans. In fact, Anderson created several original characters exclusively for the films. Together, the six films are also known as the original series but their storyline is not connected to the story in the games. Anderson wrote five more Resident Evil films and directed three of them, thereafter.

Rolling Stone raves that the band “aim to bust down old walls,” while UPROXX describes them as “electrifying.” In addition to ‘Heat Above,’ the cinematic album features the previously released tracks ‘Broken Bells,’ ‘Age of Machine,’ and US #1 rock radio single ‘My Way, Soon’.

![]() ![]() The Moab 2's greatest asset, besides price, is that it's highly customizable: it's available in numerous colorways, fits, and waterproofings, including Merrell's proprietary M Select Dry technology, Gore-Tex, mesh, vegan, and wide-footed sizes. This model has been around for more than a decade and is an excellent boot for light backpacking and hiking. The men’s and women’s Merrell Moab 2 Mid Waterproof is among the most popular and affordable lightweight hiking boots available. What We Didn’t Like: Waterproofing membrane But if you want something that can crossover for rugged mountain travel, the Zodiac could meet those needs better.Īvailable Sizes: Men’s 7 to 15, women’s 5 to 12 If you want a lightweight hiking boot, you may prefer something like our Overall Pick, the Salomon Quest 4. The mountaineering-like torsional stiffness, suede leather upper, super-grippy Vibram outsole, and lug pattern make it a capable scrambling boot with excellent traction. They lack the wobble or sloppy looseness of some of the other boots. While we were originally concerned about the fit on these shoes, they pleasantly surprised us as being comfortable while also feeling technical. ![]() Others found the fit to have a narrow heel and wide forefoot. Some reviewers found the toebox to be an ideal level of narrow for kicking steps into snow, but not so narrow as to be annoying. However, while the Scarpa have a narrow and more technical fit than other boots, we found almost no complaints about them being too narrow. Many climbing shoe companies get a reputation for making their boots too narrow. If you normally wear women’s shoes and have a foot larger than size 10, you’ll need to look at the men’s version for larger sizing. While sizing on the Zodiac goes all the way from men’s 5 to 14, the women’s sizing is more limited-topping out at 10. It also has the chops to venture off trail onto demanding technical terrain no matter the weather conditions," says Outdoor Gear Lab of the Zodiac (see Sources), which it names as a top pick. "Less than an actual mountain boot, this mid-weight hiking boot will handle trail miles with ease, whether on day hikes or extended distance backpacking trips. Others found the Scarpa much more comfortable than a traditional mountain boot. While Scarpa makes comfortable shoes and boots, some reviewers found the stiffness can result in some foot soreness after a long day of trekking. This makes it more versatile for all-mountain use while still having a technical and precise feel. The Scarpa Zodiac Plus is a more flexible take on their Zodiac Tech, which is more of a mountaineering boot. Related: The Best Winter Traction Devices (Microspikes + Crampons)Īs a boot that verges on being a mountaineering boot, the Zodiac is stiffer than others we considered. If you know you want a traditional hiking boot with all the support, stability, and cushioning that comes with it, we found the Salomon Quest 4 to be the expert and everyday user favorite boot in the category. If you like the fit of Salomon shoes, but want a lighter boot closer to a trail runner, consider the low top Salomon X Ultra 4 GORE-TEX Hiking Shoes ( men's and women's), the top pick in our Best Hiking Shoes story, or the Salomon X Ultra 4 Mid GORE-TEX ( men’s and women’s) in our Best Lightweight Hiking Bootsstory. It's worth noting that the Salomon Quest 4 is a middle-weight boot and might be too much boot for some users. These reviews get an A-rating from Fakespot, a website that analyzes customer reviews to flag fake comments. The Quest 4 is a favorite with Amazon's customers, garnering nearly 200 reviews, 79% of which are 5-star reviews. Outdoor media has similar things to say about the Quest: "Salomon footwear has a well-earned reputation for offering excellent water-resistance while remaining breathable, and this model lives up to the expectations set by its trail runner cousins," observes Outdoor Gear Lab (see Sources), which also named it their top pick.Ĭustomer reviewers from REI, Amazon, and Backcountry also raved about this backpacking boot. The two adjustment zone lacing system makes the Salomons among the most comfortable boots right out of the box. Our testers liked the Salomon Quest's model's lacing system, which essentially gives it two independent adjustment zones: one for the foot, the other for the ankle. (To be fair, most hiking-specific boots aren't designed for this.) The EVA midsole provides excellent shock absorption. This made it great for getting over obstacles, but not ideal for climbing on difficult, slabby rock. The sole is grippy, if not a little squishier than expected. The boot is easily adjustable right out of the box. In our testing, we found, like other Salomon trail shoes, that the Quest 4 fit is excellent. There were moments where it did lose me, particularly when the set of responses available didn't seem to make sense or follow the logic of what was said. The variation of the types of material kept my interest from flagging and the AI was posing questions I enjoy thinking about. It's not easygoing material – certainly not if you're looking for light relief after butting up against a difficult level – but I found it engaging and rewarding. There's philosophy, fictional blog entries, emails, literature to read as well as existential questioning at the hands of an AI library assistant. These dispense snippets of texts from the real world (or at least, one apparently existing outside the one you're exploring). As a counterpoint to Elohim you have access to library terminals peppered through the world. There's an overbearing paternal flavour to Elohim which clearly echoes particular interpretations of God. The warning comes via a booming disembodied voice which calls itself Elohim – Hebrew for god or God. Is that the Big Hulking Tower you've been told not to go anywhere near on pain of losing your immortality? Yes. The tetrominos which you collect are used to unlock more skills for your toolkit as well as opening up new worlds to explore and providing access to the aforementioned Big Hulking Tower. I'd say you're more likely to look up a walkthrough online than use them. The hints are unlocked in little sanctuary sections, which I liked – so much so I didn't want to leave the peace of the space – but in terms of play, it's a lot of work to unlock a single clue and they're only available once you've opened the third world. There's a hint system if you get truly stuck but I'm not sure how much people are likely to use it. I'm wondering if they were intended as rest stops almost - opportunities to solve something while waiting for harder puzzles to swim into focus - but it did make those simpler levels feel inconsequential on occasion. Not all of the later levels are that difficult, though, and I breezed through some of them. Some of the later puzzles made for much glaring and brooding as I slurped a cup of tea and tried to work out how to manipulate the cubes, crystals and timey-wimey stuff to feed my tetromino habit. Getting into the second world they began to feel meatier and you'll start needing to chip away at problems, experimenting with different ways of thinking and sometimes even leaving the level completely so you can come back later with a fresh plan of attack. They start off pretty simple so I whooshed through most of the first zone without any level causing particular head-scratching. The obvious comparison, as I mentioned earlier, is Portal but Talos also invokes other puzzlers – the recording mechanic has a lot of P.B. Later you'll get access to more complex tools like recording devices and persistent platforms you can carry around using clones. There are crystals which let you redirect laser beams, pressure plates which switch off forcefields, fans and signal jammers. At your disposal you have a small toolkit. In each puzzle you need to pick up a floating tetromino piece, gated off in a hard-to-reach location and protected by an assortment of deadly sentry guns, patrolling jerks sensor orbs, forcefield gates, locked doors and so on. The tower is slightly different but we'll get to that later. Each zone contains a number of doors which take you through to mini hubs where you access the puzzles themselves. If it was the Crystal Maze they would probably be Mediterranean, Desert, Ecclesiastical and Big Hulking Tower. The game breaks neatly into two parts: there's the Portal-esque first person puzzle element where you figure out how to reach and collect tetromino puzzle pieces which are used to advance you through the world there's also a philosophical/existential aspect which gradually feeds you scraps of text from a corrupted archive and asks you to consider things like the nature of consciousness and what it means to be human. ![]() It's one of my favourite games from 2014. It tickled my brainbuds and got inside my head in that way which sees you drawing diagrams of levels while on the tube or puzzling them out as you lie in bed pretending sleep might turn up at any moment. Croteam's The Talos Principle has a combination of neatly designed puzzles and philosophical pondering. ![]() TS Bank offers wire transfers for moving larger sums of money.
