Fire & Blood by George R.R. Martin6/10/2023 Place a cold spoon over a candle and you will observe the water vapor condense on the metal. So candle flames are blue at the bottom because that’s where they take up fresh air, and yellow at the top because the rising fumes from below partly suffocate the upper part of the flame.ĩ. A low-oxygen fire contains lots of uncombusted fuel particles and will give off a yellow glow. Oxygen supply influences the color of the flame. Air is 21 percent oxygen combine pure oxygen with acetylene, a chemical relative of methane, and you get an oxyacetylene welding torch that burns at over 5,500 degrees Fahrenheit - the hottest fire you are likely to encounter.ħ.

Allende daughter of fortune6/9/2023 Ta Ch'ien, on the other hand, cannot imagine "his own life apart from the long chain of his ancestors, who not only had given him his physical and mental characteristics but bequeathed him his karma. Eliza thinks that the facts of her birth don't matter: "It is what you do in this world that matters, not how you come into it," she claims. And it teaches us that by opening our minds-and our hearts-we are opening ourselves up to golden opportunities for love, happiness and good fortune.ġ. Her courageous story compels us to look beyond the boundaries imposed on us by others and by ourselves. Spirited and sensual, willful and determined, Eliza is a modern woman living in a world that is just learning to be modern. Can we control our own destinies? What does it take to change the course of our lives so that we may pursue our dreams? And how do we know that our decisions are the right ones, especially if we hurt others or ourselves in the process? These are the questions posed by Isabel Allende's fascinating story of bravery and passion, of a young woman's incredible journey from one world to another, from innocence to wisdom.

I can think of no better narrator for this book than Lizza Aiken, whose performance is both natural and engrossing. When you read it, you will yearn for the days in which everyone spoke in grammatically correct sentences and children could be expected to know the definitions of words like, “slavering” and “reticule.” In short, Joan Aiken makes the English language sing. In addition to being memorable and appealing, Aiken’s tale is a lovingly crafted pastiche, which pays tribute to several different genres, including ghost stories, Gothic novels, and the works of Charles Dickens (which truly are a genre unto themselves). The protagonists, cousins Sylvia and Bonnie Green, will earn a cherished place in your memory as clever, affectionate heroines who use courage, intelligence and ingenuity in a quest to overcome seemingly insurmountable odds. In The Wolves of Willoughby Chase, Joan Aiken presents an exciting story filled with memorable characters, including plucky orphans, cruel villains, terrifying wolves, and a boy who raises chickens.
