Life itself is a Kaleidoscope! Kaleidoscope is a fictional novel which chronicles the lives of ten women of different races, backgrounds, tribes, professions, social strata and marital status, who are linked by one thing; they are either infected or affected by HIVAIDS. Through their stories, we read about the dilemma which some of them must deal with when faced with the reality that they have tested positive for HIV. Anyone can become infected or affected and HIV infection transcends race, tribe, sex, age, profession and social status. AIDS is still a very much dreaded disease, mainly because of the terrible stigma attached to it and because it is still incurable. However, it is noteworthy to reiterate the fact that being HIV positive is no longer a death sentence because there have been several advances in the Scientific and Pharmaceutical world. People living with HIV/AIDS, now have the chance to live positive lives. So, have you had your HIV test ? Let us stop spreading the Virus Let us stop the HIV/AIDS stigma!

“Kaleidoscopes” is a collection of poems based on real life, the everyday existence of a teenager and about finding one’s place in this world. It is about exploring the self through poetry, coming to terms with life and its nuances and finding beauty and art in everything.

Kaleidoscopes narrates the real and metaphorical journey of small-town girl Lakshmi from Mysore to Bangalore, Bombay and finally London. The story revolves around three very different characters: beautiful and vulnerable Lakshmi, from an orthodox Brahmin family, her rebellious brother Raj and the gentle charismatic Kevin from an upper class English family. Their disparate worlds intertwine; shifting, changing and revealing the myriad colours and patterns of life and love leading them to the final and inevitable conclusion.

Kaleidoscope - the very word promises surprise and magic, chance and change. Exploding with visual excitement, a kaleidoscope design organizes an abundance of light, color, form, and motion into a complex and coherent image, capturing a moment of infinity. This book is jammed with how-to's and why-not's, process and product, and an abundance of text and photos that explains elements of design and technique for creating the multifaceted, luminous, and random nature of a kaleidoscope's interior on the flat surface of a quilt. The kaleidoscope configuration and its symmetrical repetition allows the quiltmaker to explore a variety of design possibilities using intricately printed fabric. With Paula as your guide, you will find that making kaleidoscope quilts is like making magic with fabric.

Poetry from the poet’s late teens in the 1970s to her early thirties in the 1990s-sensitive, passionate, and most of all, illuminating. scabs and scars blowing across the snow standing on a cliff in a silent blizzard crumbling and dreaming of kaleidoscopes all of the pieces always fit “dreaming of kaleidoscopes is a top pick of poetry and is very much worth considering.” Midwest Book Review

Kids will learn how things they encounter every day operate by building their own models with this hands-on activity book. Projects include building a working model of the human hand's muscles, bones, and tendons using drinking straws, tape, and string; using a pair of two-liter bottles and a length of rubber tubing to learn how a toilet flushes; and discovering how musical instruments make sounds by fashioning a harmonica, saxophone, drum, flute, or oboe. All devices are designed to use recycled or nearly free materials and common tools. Kids are encouraged to modify and improve the designs, or create an entirely new device using the concepts explored. Each project includes materials and tools lists, step-by-step instructions with photographs, a summary of the science concept demonstrated, and follow-up questions to gauge student understanding for use in the classroom.
