Geyser

A geyser is a spring characterized by intermittent discharge of water ejected turbulently and accompanied by a vapour phase (steam). The word geyser comes from Geysir, the name of an erupting spring at Haukadalur, Iceland; that name, in turn, comes from the Icelandic verb geysa, "to gush", the verb itself from Old Norse.

The formation of geysers is due to particular hydrogeological conditions, which exist in only a few places on Earth, so they are a fairly rare phenomenon. Generally all geyser field sites are located near active volcanic areas, and the geyser effect is due to the proximity of magma. Generally, surface water works its way down to an average depth of around 2,000 metres (6,600 ft) where it contacts hot rocks. The resultant boiling of the pressurized water results in the geyser effect of hot water and steam spraying out of the geyser's surface vent (a hydrothermal explosion).

About a thousand known geysers exist worldwide, roughly half of which are in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, United States. A geyser's eruptive activity may change or cease due to ongoing mineral deposition within the geyser plumbing, exchange of functions with nearby hot springs, earthquake influences, and human intervention.

Jet-like eruptions, often referred to as geysers, have been observed on several of the moons of the outer solar system. Due to the low ambient pressures, these eruptions consist of vapor without liquid; they are made more easily visible by particles of dust and ice carried aloft by the gas. Water vapor jets have been observed near the south pole of Saturn's moon Enceladus, while nitrogen eruptions have been observed on Neptune's moon Triton. There are also signs of carbon dioxide eruptions from the southern polar ice cap of Mars. In the latter two cases, instead of being driven by
geothermal energy, the eruptions seem to rely on solar heating via a solid-state
greenhouse effect.

fate

Fate

Fate can mean a million things
Fate can change day by day 
Fate will always live another day
Fate depends on who you are
Fate will grasp you by the hand
Fate will leave you to your death
Theres only one thing that fate has in common for every one else 
Fate always leaves them on the steps of death

Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam

Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam

Once upon a time, in a potter’s shop

I saw two thousand clay pot and cup

Suddenly a lone pot cried out, "stop!

Where the vendor, buyer, where my prop?"

OR

To a pottery I went by chance

Two thousand pots I saw in a glance

Cried out a pot awakened from trance

"whither potter, vendor and buyer prance?"

Meaning:

We simply exist, silent, unaware

Busy with minute mundane worldly care

Occasionally find someone who’ll dare

To ask why we came, and from here go where?

Types of Point of View

Point of View

An automobile accident occurs. Two drivers are involved. Witnesses include four sidewalk spectators, a policeman, a man with a video camera who happened to be shooting the scene, and the pilot of a helicopter that was flying overhead. Here we have nine different points of view and, most likely, nine different descriptions of the accident.

In short fiction, who tells the story and how it is told are critical issues for an author to decide. The tone and feel of the story, and even its meaning, can change radically depending on who is telling the story.

Remember, someone is always between the reader and the action of the story. That someone is telling the story from his or her own point of view. This angle of vision, the point of view from which the people, events, and details of a story are viewed, is important to consider when reading a story.

What is the point of view in "A Jury of Her Peers?" Is it fixed or does it change? Does it stay the same distance from the events of the story, or does it zoom in and zoom out, like a camera lens? Who is telling the story?
