The Ten Thousand Doors of January . I read this for #girlsinwhitedressesbookclub. It was a beautiful book, and it was one of those times in which I read the right book at the right time. I don’t know how many times I tried reading this book before and just couldn’t get into it, but this time I devoured it. I wouldn’t say I adored it. It didn’t make it to my favorite books of all-time list. But I did appreciate the beauty of the writing and certain characters and their stories spoke to my heart. There are things I wish had been different about the book. Overall, it’s a 4 out of 5 star read! It reminded me of a story my dad told me while I was growing up. He grew up in Australia but moved to the USA for university, fell in love with my mother, and stayed. They were living in Kansas City at the time and there was a tornado warning. My parents shared a house with another couple, a man from New Zealand and an American woman from the Midwest like my mother.

There is a focus on the characters and their relationships, which worked well, but when that wasn’t at the forefront, and the film was showcasing the panic and tension, that’s when it thrived. I try to reach my dad through the veil to ask his advice, but he is silent. Samhain is still a ways off after all. But he’s always with me in my memories of him. In his stories. His stories tell me that I can get through this storm. That I can look at it with wonder and awe and see the quiet center.Estranged from a mother who was never capable of loving them Sir Basil, a famous but struggling actor in London and Dorothy, an impecunious French princess, attempt to reconcile with her. In doing so they are reduced from states of worldly sophistication to floundering life. If we placed cameras in the path of a tornado, they would either be damaged by the strong winds and swirling debris, or become so caked with mud and water that they wouldn’t produce any useful pictures. And of course, it’s not safe for humans to try to observe tornadoes at close range. It’s important to always seek shelter when tornado conditions develop. Generally speaking, the smaller the eye of the hurricane, the faster it spins. Think of a dancer spinning on the dance floor. A dancer will spin slower when their arms and hands are extended out. When the dancer pulls their arms and hands closer to their body, the dancer spins faster. It’s known as the conservation of angular momentum, and the same physics apply to hurricanes. A smaller eye typically means stronger winds. Hurricanes with pinhole eyes are most common in the Caribbean Sea or the Gulf of Mexico. Yes, if one takes the common meaning of the term "eye of the storm" to be the area of relatively low wind speed near the center of the vortex, most tornadoes can be said to have eyes. Cyclostrophic balance describes a steady-state, inviscid flow with neglected Coriolis force:

For the first time in their lives, the meaning of compassion takes the children by surprise. During a ferocious storm Mrs Hunter finally dies, not through a withdrawal of will but by an assertion of it. In the process of dying she re-lives her experience in the cyclone. Standing on a beach, she is calm and serene as devastation surrounds her. From a visual standpoint, looking up from within the eye of a tornado can offer a surprising view. Some survivors have reported seeing blue sky or a 'stadium effect' of clouds arched upwards in the clear sky. This peculiar sight is due to the low-pressure center and the way the intense, inward-spiraling winds shape the clouds. These questions could spark a whole unit of work. I am sure your children will come up with a range of different ideas.The 4:50 From Paddington . I read this for the #readmorechristie book challenge and #emmasbookishcorner challenge. The prompt for #emmasbookishcorner challenge was to read a book by Agatha Christie, and for #readmorechristie was to read one of her books featuring a female adventurer. I thought this one was perfect as you could consider there to be THREE female adventures in this book. The first is Mrs. McGillicuddy who witnessed the murder and tried to do something about it. The second is Jane Marple who heard about the murder from her friend, Mrs. McGillicuddy. And the third is Lucy Eyelesbarrow who Jane Marple enlists to help her find the body and solve the murder. I read this once (or twice) before and though I was fairly certain I remembered what happened it was still an enjoyable read. Definitely at least a 4 out of 5 star read. Eye of the Storm, a 2000 exhibition and book featuring the US Civil War drawings of Robert Knox Sneden Sycamore presents Fred Schepisi's, The Eye of the Storm" (PDF). Paper Bark Films EOS Pty Ltd. 18 August 2011. p.cover . Retrieved 25 December 2012. We were doing about 620 miles-per-hour, 200 feet above the desert, in total darkness. Everything was running on rails as we approached the target. Then all hell broke loose. I remember the missile being fired at us; I broke left and shouted, “Chaff!” Former Tornado Navigator John Nichol tells the incredible story of the RAF Tornado force during the First Gulf War in 1991; the excitement and the danger, the fear and the losses. It is an extraordinary account of courage and fortitude.
