English - The Gold Frame - Essay

The Gold Frame

R.K. Lakshman is one of the renowned cartoonists of India. His creative gallery is filled with not only cartoon sketches but also short stories. In the story “The Gold Frame” Lakshman mixes the delicate humor with irony and sketches the life of the protagonist, Datta. Datta is the owner of "The Modern Frame Works," a small wooden shop tucked up between a drug store and a radio repair shop. Datta with his concave figure, silver-rimmed glasses and. a complexion of seasoned timber, fitted into his shop with the harmony of a fixture. He was a salient and hard working man and gave only laconic answers to, his customers. He was always been surrounded by a confusion of frame work materials.

One day a customer comes to his shop with a sepia-brown photograph of an old man and requests Datta to get it framed elegantly, Datta, with his habitual indifference ignored him and the photograph and engaged in his routine work. The customer reiterated his demand and different types of frames and the customer was baffled by the variety. Then Datta helped him by suggesting that a cut mount looked more elegant. The customer with a great devotion towards the old man describes him as God in his home. Expressing that he would not care for the money where the great soul is concerned, the customer was convinced for a cut mount with oval shape frame having a profusion of gold leaves and winding carpers. The customer placed an order and left. When Datta looked at the photograph it was just another elderly man of those days. It was a standard portrait of a grand father, a philanthropist; or a social worker. RK. Lakshman vividly describes the attitude of an average man and how he respects the elders by fixing them into framed photographs.

With a boxful of unclaimed photo frames Datta developed the philosophical attitude and never cared the complete the ordered work unless the customer turned up at least once. One fine day the fervent customer enquired about the photo’s framing and then Datta decided to be serious in completing the work completing the work. Immediately next day he made it his first job keeping aside all the others. He looked for the pencil stub and as usual it was missing. Vexed with his search he stood up and shook the folds of his dhoti so violently that he upset the white enamel paint tin. Its thick content mistakenly got spilled on the sacred photograph of the old man.

Datta stood motionless and shocked. He lost all faculty seeing the disaster before him. He started sweating profusely. His spectacles clouded with sweat and helpfully screened his Vision. This made him slowly recover his senses. He set about rescuing the picture in such desperate hurry that he made a worst mess of it. He rubbed the picture so hard with a rag that he peeled off half the old man’s face in the photograph. Nearly all his turban was gone.

Datta looked helplessly at the venerable elder whom he mutilated beyond recovery. He sat with both hands clutching his head. The customer had a fanatic devotion to the photograph and Datta’s Imagination went wild. It suggested nightmarish consequence to his dear self and to the fragile Inflammable shop. Exhausted, he accepted the situation with resignation. Mean while Looking at the plethora of Gods and their transcendental smile, an idea flashed in Datta’s mind. He searched all the unclaimed photographs. Luckily there was one with which Datta felt he could take a fair risk. The print had yellow tint but he calculated that the total effect when put in a dazzling gold frame would cover it safe.

Next day he perfectly framed the photograph and waited for the customer. He rehearsed his answer many times and the days filled with suspense and anxiety. The customer turned up promptly a couple of days later. With Dramatic exuberance he asked for the frame. Datta finally revealed the glittering frame and held his breath. The customer’s face glittered by its grandeur but soon the benevolent expression vanished. He shouted indignantly and demanded not regarding the photograph of the old man but of the shape off frame which is square instead of oval cut mount.

This Datta never expected, R.K. Lakshman delicately sketched the irony of the situation and the reader is left with great fun.

Week 4
a) The total distance travelled by vehicle in ‘t’ seconds is given by distance = ut+1/2at2 where ‘u’ and ‘a’
are the initial velocity (m/sec.) and acceleration (m/sec2). Write C program to find the distance travelled at
regular intervals of time given the values of ‘u’ and ‘a’. The program should provide the flexibility to the
user to select his own time intervals and repeat the calculations for different values of ‘u’ and ‘a’.
b) Write a C program, which takes two integer operands and one operator form the user, performs the
operation and then prints the result. (Consider the operators +,-,*, /, % and use Switch Statement)
Week 5

For example: if n is 3 and x is 5, then the program computes 1+5+25+125.
Print x, n, the sum
Perform error checking. For example, the formula does not make sense for negative exponents – if n is
less than 0. Have your program print an error message if n<0, then go back and read in the next pair of
numbers of without computing the sum. Are any values of x also illegal ? If so, test for them too.
Week 10
a) 2’s complement of a number is obtained by scanning it from right to left and complementing all the bits
after the first appearance of a 1. Thus 2’s complement of 11100 is 00100. Write a C program to find the

Watch the Solar Eclipse of Jan 2010

Watch the Annular Solar Eclipse of January 15, 2010. It is the longest annular solar eclipse of the millennium, which enters India at Thiruvananthapuram (Trivandrum), Kerala and exits India at Rameswaram, Tamil Nadu.

An annular eclipse occurs when the Sun and Moon are exactly in line, but the apparent size of the Moon is smaller than that of the Sun, causing the Sun to look like an annulus (ring), blocking most of the Sun's light. An annular eclipse will appear as partial eclipse over a region thousands of kilometers wide.

Pongal Holidays from 12 through 17;College on Monday 18

Happy Pongal to All! The Pongal holidays have been given from Jan 12 to Jan 17. College reopens on 18 Jan. The work load is quite heavy, though. Its better to finish up all pending tasks regarding notes, labs, and the biggest holiday spoiler, 'Drawing'. Since the 2nd mid is fast approaching in February, efficient time management is a must regarding studying habits. A well planned out study time table for the holidays will save a lot of headaches later. And another tip: write the CP Lab record work on the papers given for the other records! The 100 sheets of the CP Lab will be given later and can be used for the other records as well. The syllabus to the CP Lab can be downloaded from http://www.jntukakinada.edu.in/Syllabus/CSE.pdf Hope my point has been made clear...


Anyway Enjoy the Holidays! Too much study is not nice either, especially during the holidays.......................... Just make sure that you don't run into incomplete work later on as there won't be much time. Cheers!

Welcome to this new BLOG!

This blog is the latest initiative taken by a student of CSE at the Vishnu Institute of Technology, Bhimavaram. Due to uncertainty in announcements and notices, this blog has been setup to address that. Let's see how well this blog will come along......

Happy New Year To All!
