In your honest opinion, tell me what you like to see in a manager. If youre a manager, what traits do you like to see in an employee? As an employee, what shortcomings have you overlooked in your boss and for what reasons? Managers, what shortcomings have you overlooked in your employees, and why?
Im honestly just curious. I like to see others insight. If you can, go beyond, not being an asshat, or they show up.
If you want to vent about a ****ty boss or ****ty employee, thats fine, too.
Nah, dude. I got this.
My idea of a good manager is not having a POS bitch treating her deli associates like garbage and understaffing us like crazy but expecting us not to get overtime. Im not overlooking it our union reps are ****ing useless.
As an employee I like to see a manager who will tell you like it is. I have more respect for managers who do their jobs and make others do theirs. I like managers who help out, give advice, and willing to teach.
The short comings I over-look are favoritism, not knowing how a department is run (but telling you how to run it), and moodiness on busy days!
Same as the above poster! My favorite manager (thankfully he's the head manager) used to work in my department, so he knows how things are run, and when an issue is minor and can be overlooked, and when it can't. He isn't afraid to ask me tough questions if he feels they're warranted, but at the same time, he trusts the CSM to know and do his job, so he doesn't micromanage. He respects his employees, never asks us to do anything off the clock, praises us in public and (constructively) criticizes us in private. My least favorite manager makes the department do pointless tasks when lines are backed up, asks us dumb questions which shows he barely knows what he means, and loves loves loves to micromanage the heck out of departments. He does everything "by the book", whether or not "the book" makes an iota of sense. And it's a shame because I'd like him as a coworker or a person, but as a leader he kinda sucks.
My least favorite kind of managers are the drunks and lazy ones.
To me, the good managers recognize the good employees and trust them and leave them alone to do their jobs. The bad ones micromanage and show favoritism to the store rats and kiss asses.

The word mythology (Greek: μυθολογία, from μύθος mythos, a story or legend, and λόγος logos, an account or speech) literally means the (oral) retelling of myths – stories that a particular culture believes to be true and that use supernatural events or characters to explain the nature of the universe and humanity. In modern usage, mythology is either the body of myths from a particular culture or religion (as in Greek mythology, Egyptian mythology or Norse mythology) or the branch of knowledge dealing with the collection, study and interpretation of myths.
In common usage, myth means a falsehood — a story which many believe to be based on fact but which is not true. However, the field of mythology does not use this definition.
DefinitionMyths are narratives about divine or heroic beings, arranged in a coherent system, passed down traditionally, and linked to the spiritual or religious life of a community, endorsed by rulers or priests. Once this link to the spiritual leadership of society is broken, they lose their mythological qualities and become folktales or fairy tales. Not every religious narrative is a myth however; unless it is deeply rooted in tradition, it may also be trivial pious anecdote or legend.
Myths are often intended to explain the universal and local beginnings ("creation mythss" and "founding myths"), natural phenomena, inexplicable cultural conventions, and anything else for which no simple explanation presents itself.
In folkloristics, which is concerned with the study of both secular and sacred narratives, a myth also derives some of its power from being believed and deeply held as true. In the study of folklore, all sacred traditions have myths, and there is nothing pejorative or dismissive intended in the use of the term, as there often is in common usage.
This broader truth runs deeper than the advent of critical history which may, or may not, exist as in an authoritative written form which becomes "the story" (Preliterate oral traditions may vanish as the written word becomes "the story" and the literate become "the authority"). However, as Lucien Lévy-Bruhl puts it, "The primitive mentality is a condition of the human mind, and not a stage in its historical development." Most often the term refers specifically to ancient tales from very old cultures, such as Greek mythology or Roman mythology. Some myths descended originally as part of an oral tradition and were only later written down, and many of them exist in multiple versions.
According to F. W. J. Schelling in the eighth chapter of Introduction to Philosophy and Mythology, "Mythological representations have been neither invented nor freely accepted. The products of a process independent of thought and will, they were, for the consciousness which underwent them, of an irrefutable and incontestable reality. Peoples and individuals are only the instruments of this process, which goes beyond their horizon and which they serve without understanding."
Religion and mythology
Mythology figures prominently in most religions, and most mythology is tied to at least one religion. While in common usage of myth, the word may indicate a fiction or half-truth (nearly all dictionaries include this definition), myth does not imply that a story is either objectively false or true, it rather refers to a spiritual, psychological or symbolical notion of truth unrelated to materialist or objectivist notions. While many adherents of modern dominant religions regard the events surrounding the origin and development of their faith as literal historic accounts, there are many followers who instead regard them as figurative representations of their belief systems. Most of the new age religions, such as the Neopaganss, have no problem characterizing their religious texts as mythical.
The word mythology is used to refer to stories that, while they may or may not be strictly factual, reveal fundamental truths and insights about human nature, often through the use of archetypes. Also, the stories discussed express the viewpoints and beliefs of the country, time period, culture, and/or religion which gave birth to them. One can speak of a Hindu mythology, a Christian mythology, or an Islamic mythology, in which one describes the mythic elements within these faiths without speaking to the veracity of the faith's tenets or claims about its history.
ClassificationsRitual myths explain the performance of certain religious practicess or patterns and associated with temples or centers of worship. Origin myths describe the beginnings of a custom, name or object. Cult myths are often seen as explanations for elaborate festivals that magnify the power of the deity. Prestige myths are usually associated with a divinely chosen hero, city, or people. Eschatological myths are stories which describe catastrophic ends to the present world order of the writers. These extend beyond any potential historical scope, and thus can only be described in mythic terms. Apocalyptic literature such as the New Testament Book of Revelation is an example of a set of eschatological myths. Social myths reinforce or defend current social values or practices. Myths may fit in more than one category.
Related conceptsMyths are not the same as fables, legends, folktaless, fairy tales, anecdotes or fiction, but the concepts may overlap. Notably, during Romanticism, folktales and fairy tales were perceived as eroded fragments of earlier mythology (famously by the Brothers Grimm and Elias Lönnrot). Mythological themes are also very often consciously employed in literature, beginning with Homer. The resulting work may expressly refer to a mythological background without itself being part of a body of myths (Cupid and Psyche). The medieval romance in particular plays with this process of turning myth into literature. Euhemerism refers to the process of rationalization of myths, putting themes formerly imbued with mythological qualities into pragmatic contexts, for example following a cultural or religious paradigm shift (notably the re-interpretation of pagan mythology following Christianization). Conversely, historical and literary material may acquire mythological qualities over time, for example the Matter of Britain and the Matter of France, based on historical events of the 5th and 8th centuries, respectively, were first made into epic poetry and became partly mythological over the following centuries. "Conscious generation" of mythology has been termed mythopoeia by J. R. R. Tolkien, and was notoriously also suggested by Nazi ideologist Alfred Rosenberg.
Formation of mythsWhat forces create myths? Robert Graves said of Greek myth: "True myth may be defined as the reduction to narrative shorthand of ritual mime performed on public festivals, and in many cases recorded pictorially." (The Greek Myths, Introduction). Graves was deeply influenced by Sir James George Frazer's mythography The Golden Bough, and he would have agreed that myths are generated by many cultural needs.
Myths authorize the cultural institutions of a tribe, a city, or a nation by connecting them with universal truths. Myths justify the current occupation of a territory by a people, for instance.
All cultures have developed over time their own myths, consisting of narratives of their history, their religions, and their heroes. The great power of the symbolic meaning of these stories for the culture is a major reason why they survive as long as they do, sometimes for thousands of years. Mâche distinguishes between "myth, in the sense of this primary psychic image, with some kind of mytho-logy, or a system of words trying with varying success to ensure a certain coherence between these images.
A collection of myths is called a mythos, e.g. 'the Roman mythos.' A collection of those is called a mythoi, e.g. 'the Greek and Roman mythoi.' One notable type is the creation myth, which describes how that culture believes the universe was created. Another is the Trickster myth, which concerns itself with the pranks or tricks played by gods or heroes.
Joseph Campbell is one of the more famous modern authors on myths and the history of spirituality. His book The Hero with a Thousand Faces (1948) outlined the basic ideas he would continue to elaborate on until his death in 1987. His theories, popularized in a series of books and videos, are more inspirational than scholarly, being more accepted among the general public than in academic circles.
Myths as depictions of historical eventsAs discussed above, the status of a story as myth is unrelated to whether it is based on historical events. Myths that are based on a historical nucleus over time become imbued with symbolic meaning, transformed, shifted in time or place, or even reversed.
One way of conceptualizing this process is to view 'myths' as lying at the far end of a continuum ranging from a 'dispassionate account' to 'legendary occurrence' to 'mythical status'. As an event progresses towards the mythical end of this continuum, what people think, feel and say about the event takes on progressively greater historical significance while the facts become less important. By the time one reaches the mythical end of the spectrum the story has taken on a life of its own and the facts of the original event have become almost irrelevant. A classical example of this process is the Trojan War, a topic firmly within the scope of Greek mythology. The extent of a historical basis in the Trojan cycle is disputed, see historicity of the Iliad.
This method or technique of interpreting myths as accounts of actual events, euhemerist exegesis, dates from antiquity and can be traced back (from Spencer) to Evhémère's Histoire sacrée (300 BCE) which describes the inhabitants of the island of Panchaia, Everything-Good, in the Indian Ocean as normal people deified by popular naivety. As Roland Barthes affirms, "Myth is a word chosen by history. It could not come from the nature of things".
This process occurs in part because the events described become detached from their original context and new context is substituted, often through analogy with current or recent events. Some Greek myths originated in Classical times to provide explanations for inexplicable features of local cult practices, to account for the local epithet of one of the Olympian gods, to interpret depictions of half-remembered figures, events, or account for the deities' attributes or entheogens, even to make sense of ancient icons, much as myths are invented to "explain" heraldic charges, the origins of which has become arcane with the passing of time. Conversely, descriptions of recent events are re-emphasised to make them seem to be analogous with the commonly known story. This technique has been used by some religious conservatives in America with text from the Bible, notably referencing the many prophecies in the Book of Daniel and the Book of Revelation especially. It was also used during the Russian Communist-era in propaganda about political situations with misleading references to class struggles. Until World War II the fitness of the Emperor of Japan was linked to his mythical descent from the Shinto sun goddess, Amaterasu.
Mâche argues that euhemerist exegesis, "was applied to capture and seize by force of reason qualities of thought, which eluded it on every side." This process, he argues, often leads to interpretation of myths as "disguised propaganda in the service of powerful individuals," and that the purpose of myths in this view is to allow the "social order" to establish "its permanence on the illusion of a natural order." He argues against this interpretation, saying that "what puts an end to this caricature of certain speeches from May 1968 is, among other things, precisely the fact that roles are not distributed once and for all in myths, as would be the case if they were a variant of the idea of an 'opium of the people.'"
Contra Barthes Mâche argues that, "myth therefore seems to choose history, rather than be chosen by it" , "beyond words and stories, myth seems more like a psychic content from which words, gestures, and musics radiate. History only chooses for it more or less becoming clothes. And these contents surge forth all the more vigorously from the nature of things when reason tries to repress them. Whatever the roles and commentaries with which such and such a socio-historic movement decks out the mythic image, the latter lives a largely autonomous life which continually fascinates humanity. To denounce archaism only makes sense as a function of a 'progressive' ideology, which itself begins to show a certain archaism and an obvious naivety."
Other theoriesMiddleton argues that, "For Lévi-Strauss, myth is a structured system of signifiers, whose internal networks of relationships are used to 'map' the structure of other sets of relationships; the 'content' is infinitely variable and relatively unimportant."
In their book Hamlet's Mill, Giorgio De Santillana and Hertha Von Dechend suggest that myth is a "technical language" describing cosmic events, They write:
- "One should pay attention to the cosmological information contained in ancient myth, information of chaos, struggle and violence. [..] Plato knew .. that the language of myth is, in principle, as ruthlessly generalizing as up-to-date "tech talk". .. There is no other technique, apparently, than myth, which succeeds in telling structure [..] The main merit of this language has turned out to be its built-in ambiguity. Myth can be used as a vehicle for handing down solid knowledge independently from the degree of insight of the people who do the actual telling of stories, fables, etc"
- "The historical-cosmological story of this book is based on the evidence of historical texts of many peoples around the globe, on classical literature, [..] to establish (1) that there were physical upheavals of a global character in historical times; (2) that these catastrophes were caused by extraterrestrial agents; and (3) that these agents can be identified.".
Modern mythologyFilm and book series like Star Wars and Tarzan sometimes have strong mythological aspects that sometimes develop into deep and intricate philosophical systems. These items are not mythology, but contain mythic themes that, for some people, meet similar psychological needs. An example is that developed by J. R. R. Tolkien in The Silmarillion and The Lord of the Rings. Fans will sometimes incorrectly refer to a complex fictional world such as that of the Star Trek series as a mythology.
Fiction, however, does not reach the level of actual mythology until people believe that it really happened. For example, some people believe that fiction author Clive Barker's movie Candyman was based upon a true story, and new stories have grown up around the figure. The same can be said for the Blair Witch and many other stories.
The word is also used to refer to common, rarely questioned contemporary value systems, especially when seen as ideological or socially constructed, as in "the mythology of love". In the 1950s French structuralist thinker Roland Barthes published a series of semiotic analyses of such modern myths and the process of their creation, collected in his book Mythologies.

Shawl Ministry
Care and the love of knitting (and crochet) have been combined into a prayerful ministry that reaches out to those in need of comfort and solace. Many blessings are knitted into every shawl. The knitter begins each shawl with prayers for the recipient. Intentions are continued throughout the creation of the shawl. When the shawl is completed it is offered a final ritual before being sent along its way. As this gift has been sent along, some recipients have continued the kindness by making one themselves and passing it on to someone in need. Thus, the blessing is rippled from person to person, with both the giver and receiver feeling the unconditional embrace of a sheltering, mothering God! Meetings are the second Monday of every month from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM.

Anyone else try it? I have been there maybe 5 times already and all I can say that it blows everything else out of the water! I have tried Shakas, 2 different Loft(a pretty good/better place, but also a more casual place and not so "fast foody" like the ones discussed) locations and 2 different L&L locations(which I found is THE WORST hawaiian bbq, tastes like they marinated the meats in coffee and dirt and sh*t. I have no idea why my frends love it. And they're cooking techniques seem to leave food very oily, greasy with no advantageous flavor. LL must stand for Lowest of the Low).
I'll keep it short and sweet, I have tried their bbq pork, bbq chicken, bbq beef and chicken katsu. Their chicken katsu seems to be very high quality, like it was served from an izakaya type joint, nicely breaded and nice tender cuts. Their bbq pork is my fave! ALL their grilled meats are sooo moist, tender and flavorful..they must'ave put crack in their marinade, so goood. Even their macoroni salad is high quality, with big chinks of potatoe and lots of corn. And they also give a nice salad with oriental style dressing(not watered down like Mitsuwa joints).
Whenever I eat there, it doesn't seem like other hawaiian joints, which are usually greasy(dont get me wrong, i love grease, but not motor oil tasting grease), and have a "low quality" taste and preparation like the cook threw a bunch of 'ish on the grill while throwing the cooked food onto a plate ten feet from him. But.. this place(Aloha Grill) the cooks (2 old Korean/ maybe Japanese old ladies) prepare and cook their food with love! You can just tell.
I have yet to try their Spicy Pork Spare Ribs (which I hear is their most unique dish), and also their Kalbi (have not ordered yet because I am expecting something that i've already had a lot).
All this in a small location inside the Gateway shopping center on Jeronimo and Alicia, close to the Urgent Care Clinic and Tijuane Gillies.
Kinda greatfull I had that ear infeection a while back and went to the clinic, otherwise, I would have never came across this place.

To obtain more natural impressions, people use wood furniture and wood decoration too. Wood furniture brings the warmth and the relaxing impression of the nature. This impression may be better when it adopts the color of the natural wood. With this specific, the home looks more natural and relaxing.
Adopting natural home design is not as difficult. But one thing for certain, you need an idea. It could be a big challenge for the absolute most people. You can see the nature to obtain it. But this isn't enough. You'll need something applicable. If you should be looking for an idea or an inspiration, home design websites are the very best source. You'll find many natural home designs from the true projects. These look interesting. In term of the impression, White Turned Wood Table Lamp can be great.

How MCSE Bootcamp Courses Work
MCSE bootcamp courses and programs are designed for accelerated learning, and are most valuable for candidates who need to complete their MCSE certification in a short period of time for a prospective employer, or other personal reasons. MCSE bootcamp courses can be taken either online, or over the Internet in a virtual classroom setting. These types of self-study programs allow students to complete tests and quizzes, submit coursework and take part in computer labs and hands-on exercises in a âcondensed' learning format.
Back to MCSE Training: MCSE Certification, MCSE Online Course and Bootcamp
Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer is a top level IT credential validated by Microsoft. The MCSA (Microsoft Certified Solutions Associate) is the first requirement of eligibility for the (MCSE). The MCSE certification has become an important cog in the wheel for IT professionals seeking expertise with Microsoft Servers. The credential can improve your chances of landing at an esteemed job and gives your resume a boost. MCSE credentials offer insights to employers about your experience in designing, deploying, optimizing, and operating various infrastructures using Microsoft products. There are eight segments to choose from:
- Server infrastructure

- Messaging, communication
- SharePoint
Microsoft recommends a minimum of 2 years experience in a specific field and one has to receive decent scores on the five exams for the Microsoft credential.
Which is the best?
Although every program has its own significance in the IT ecosystem, Server Infrastructure is one of the best due to its broader reach and scope in the IT realm. The life cycle of server infrastructure is generally more than other IT departments (about a year). It gives companies more liberty to use more work power from the IT sector and provide opportunities for stream experts to land into the appropriate job.
Big companies know that they need IT infrastructure to secure their future in the modern IT world and this presents enough opportunities for the field experts to excel as Server Management experts, Desktop engineer, Data Centre Services experts, Technical support experts, Deployment experts, Database Management and Networking experts.
As long as you can address the cloud; you can rest be assured to get a lot of opportunities as a system engineer in the field of IT infrastructure services in the near future and the MCSE certification gives you essential validation to excel in the infrastructure services with powerful credentials and authority. The people with the MCSE credential can secure various jobs as IT Consultants, IT Developers, Programmers, Analysts, Service providers, and System Administrators/Integrator.
Microsoft has a great amount of authority in the IT realm, right from the hardware to gaming technologies and being certified in the Microsoft products or environment can give individuals enough leverage in companies and organizations that prioritize and use large volumes of Microsoft framework in their services. The certifications provided by Microsoft not only help a professional get better jobs but they even have a big role to play in the promotions.
A lot of big companies purchase Microsoft products and services and the negotiations that take place in those deals require these companies to invest in the infrastructure of training Microsoft professionals and in developing the official curriculum of the certifications and even on exam vouchers. This ensures that you always get the best knowledge and expertise by choosing to acquire these certifications which are updated according to latest developments in technology. The wide popularity of the certifications also ensures that an individual is never short of coursework or training material required to pass the various examinations and there are well-known training facilities all over the globe that can help you prepare for the certifications easily.

A proposal that seeks to decriminalize medical marijuana in New York passed through what is widely viewed as its final hurdle on Thursday.
The Compassionate Care Act, which seeks to have medical marijuana legalized in the state, was approved by the Senate Finance Committee and passed on to the Rules Committee, said the bill's sponsor, Sen. Diane Savino (D-Staten Island/Brooklyn). The chairman of the Finance Committee, Sen. John De Francisco (R-Syracuse) had earlier this week suggested that he would block the bill from going to the voting floor, reported Huffington Post.
The proposal has already been approved by the New York State Assembly. Proponents of the bill say that they have more than enough number of "yes" votes required to approve the bill in the Senate floor. Should the Senate approve the bill, this will make New York State the 23rd one in the United States to allow the use of medical marijuana to manage various ailments.
New York Governor Andrew Cuomo recently said that he will sign the bill into the law if it makes sense, in what is the first time he has issued a solid statement on the matter. Savino said that, along with Assemblyman Richard Gottfried-who sponsored the bill at the State Assembly, she is currently negotiating with Cuomo's office over the medical marijuana bill.
"It's in three-way negotiations with the governor's office, and we will have a final product in time for the end of this legislative session," Savino told a press conference.
The negotiations touch on smaller details such as the language that seeks to train physicians on medical marijuana and policies to ensure medical marijuana doesn't make its way into the black market.

127 (Tuesday, March 26th) I love this question in Chapter 27 of Halliday, Resnick, and Walker. We spent a while in class talking about which conservation of energy loop or loops you should choose to write loop equations for in order to determine the current through resistor R. There is one loop where you can solve for the unknown with one equation. If you don't choose that loop, you will have multiple unknowns and will need multiple loops and multiple equations to answer the question. (All batteries are ideal and have emf = 4 V and all resistors are identical and have resistance = 4 Ω.)

New Delhi, Jun 16 (PTI) The Congress today accused the BJP-led NDA government of working against the interests of the farmers and the poor and slammed it for its Smart City project dubbing it as a "failure".
The party said that under the Smart City project majority of the funds were being spent in "certain VIP pockets" and not the slums and other such areas inhabited by the poor.
Talking to reporters here, AICC spokesperson Ajay Maken also took on the Centre over the farmers issue and said those protesting for their rights and remunerative prices of their produce are fired upon and killed under the BJP.
He likened the present situation to the farmers agitation of 1917 in Bihars Champaran.
"The government is facing farmers protest on one side and is grappling with failed policy implementation for the poor on the other side. The farmers are protesting and in cities the poor are being ignored.
"This government is not sensitive towards the farmers and neither the poor. Their policies towards the poor are biased and opaque," he told reporters.
He alleged that contrary to what was promised in 2014, the government was now pursuing anti-poor policies as there was no allocation of funds for projects for weaker section.
Maken said as many as 59 cities were selected by the government to be developed as Smart Cities and Delhi being one of them, where funds have been earmarked only for select areas.
"In 59 cities, Rs 1.31 lakh crore have been sanctioned for Delhis development, of which Rs 1.02 lakh crore have been earmarked for select VIP areas. But only 2.7 per cent of the budget is utilised for the purpose for the poor so far," he claimed, adding this showed the Centres apathy towards the poor.
Accusing the government of bias against the poor, he said only the rich were being catered to as certain posh areas under the New Delhi Municipal Corporation (NDMC) where all VIPs, including the prime minister and Union minister Venkaiah Naidu, reside have been selected for development under Smart city project.
"There is no transparency in execution of projects and the whole process is opaque," he alleged, pointing out that the empanelment of service providers for training of professionals was being done two years after the project was launched.
On the farmers issue, the Congress leader compared the situation to the peasants agitation in Champaran in Bihar in 1917 against the British and said the "same is happening today".
He also dubbed the AAP and the BJP as two sides of a coin and said both worked to defeat the Congress and complimented each other as has come out in Goa and Punjab. PTI SKC KIS

Seeing a fierce looking Kalamugan in the middle of the forest, at the dead of the night, was a fearsome prospect but Vandiya Devan's natural fearlessness asserted itself after a while.
He wondered, "Where have I seen him? He looks very familiar. Ah! He looks like the same Kalamugan who had commented about him when he was sleeping in the forest after meeting Nandini at Harichandra River. His face looks too familiar. Why? Where else have I seen him?"
The Kalamugan who had been staring at him for a while now burst into a hearty laugh.
"Ha Ha Ha!" To Vandiya Devan's ears, his voice too seemed very familiar.
"Cha! It's you. I can't believe that I came all the way in the middle of the night through this forest, for you!" Vandiya Devan's suspicion deepened. It seemed as though the Kala Mugan was deliberately trying to disguise his voice.
"Then why did you come and for whom?"
"I came in search of the Prince."
"Which Prince?"
"How does it concern you? Why do you ask?"
"I too am a Prince. That's why I asked."
"You? A Prince? Let me see. Yes! There! It says so right on your face."
"I think my face is any day better than yours unless you wish to improve upon it by adding matted beards and dreadlocks."
"Why don't you try it? It might indeed improve your appearance."
"I thought so too…"
"What did you think?"
"Nothing. Just untie me. I too will join your group and become a Kalamugan."
"No thanks. We don't need any more spies in our group. It's because of spies like you that our Maha Sangam meeting ended in a sham."
"What happened?"
"We were waiting for the Prince to come for our meeting. We thought that once he becomes the king, he would pledge to make our leader the Raja Guru of the Cholas (Spiritual Head). But he didn't come for the meeting."
"Untie me and I will tell you why your Prince didn't come."
"Which Prince?"
"Who else? King Gandarathidhar's son Prince Madhuranthakan."
"My guess is right."
"What did you guess?"
"I guessed that you were a spy."
"How did you guess that rightly?"
"When I came searching for the Prince, I saw a group of people through the forest path. I didn't know who they were. They probably thought that you were a spy and that's why they tied you to that pillar but I can't believe that they left you alive. I wonder why?"
"I can tell you why if you untie me."
"You don't have to tell me anything and I will not untie you unless you promise to listen to whatever I tell you."
"What should I do?"
"You should promise me that henceforth you will not interfere in matters that do not concern you and then hold your ears and do thopukaranam for 108 times!"
"Is that so?"
Even while Vandiya Devan was engaging the Kalamugan in this conversation he had been busy untying himself. When the Kalamugan asked him to do thopukaranam he had freed himself completely and he sprang upon him and pushed him to the ground. The fire log that he held in his hand fell down but didn't get extinguished. Vandiya Devan sat on the Kalamugan's chest and pulled at his beard and hair that came away in his hand. The Kalamugan who had by then recovered from this surprise attack pushed Vandiya Devan away and got up. Vandiya Devan immediately took the fire log and held it to his face and was not surprised to see the familiar face of Azwarkadiyan Nambi beaming at him. They both burst out laughing.
"Vaishanavarey! How come you are lecturing me about not interfering in other people's business when you are doing the same?"
"I didn't court danger like you do. If I had not come here at the nick of the time, imagine what would have happened to you?"
"Oh! So you think that it was you who had untied my ropes?"
"No, but you can't leave this forest without someone guiding you. You would have been hunted by wolves."
"Forget the wolves. If you had but seen the Mandiravadi's wolves a little while ago… it's a blessing that I escaped them unscathed."
"I know about them. Who else came with the Mandiravadi?"
"A small fish had come along with him and it wanted to devour a tiger."
"Aha! Tell me what happened? Who came? What did they do? What happened?"
"You tell me why you wore this disguise? Where were you this evening? What happened there? If you tell me about that I will tell you what happened here?"
"I have nothing much to tell you. The Kalamugars had a meeting in the midnight by the Kollidam River. I wore this disguise to the meeting to see what's happening there. I had thought that I would meet you near the ferry in the morning. Periya Pazhuvetarayar came for the meeting and the supreme Guru of Kalamugars too came but the one person that they were expecting didn't come."
"They were expecting Prince Madhuranthakar isn't it?"
"Yes… but how do you know?"
"If Prince Madhuranthakar ascends the throne, I wonder how he can control this kingdom…"
"Why do you say so?"
"He can't control a horse, then how can we expect him to control rebel lords like Pazhuvetarayar, bloodthirsty Kalamugars and skirmishing Vaishnavars like yourself…"
Azhwarkadiyan laughed out aloud and asked, "Did you meet Madhuranthakar on the way? Do you know what happened to him?"
Vandiya Devan narrated what he saw early in the evening about Madhuranthakar on the horse that bolted in fear when the firelog came near.
"Poor Prince! I wonder where he is right now. I wonder where he fell when the horse bolted wildly. He might even be in danger of his life. That's why he didn't come for the Maha Sangam meeting today. Shall we go and search for him again?"
"Very nice! How does that concern us? Are we not on a mission to reach Kanchi as soon as possible? Come now. Let us leave immediately. We need to be at Kollidam River by dawn."
"What if Madhuranthakar was lying in the fields or in the dead of the forest drenched in rain and mud? What if he is dying? Then too will you say that it's none of our business?"
"You are imagining too much. These things will not happen. Anirudhar will take care of it."
"Prime Minister Anirudhar? What does he know about this?"
"Aha! How can you say that? Anirudhar knows everything that happens in this Kingdom."
"Then… he also knows what happened in Kadambur Palace."
"Do you remember we both stood by the road in Kadambur, while Pazhuvur queen's palanquin passed us by?"
"Of course. I also remember how excited and restless you got when the screen of the Palanquin opened and you asked me to give her a message."
"And you thought that I intended to send some 'love message' to the Pazhuvur queen and admonished me saying, 'How dare I ask you to do this sort of work?' My message had no such love. Instead, I wished to warn Madhuranthakar, not to be taken in by the words of these rebel lords."
"You knew even then that it was Prince Madhuranthakar inside the palanquin."
"I had a doubt and it got confirmed when the Prince peeked outside. You are a close-mouthed fellow. No matter how much I tried, you never revealed to me that it was not Nandini but the Prince inside the palanquin."
"You too are close-mouthed. Did you tell me where you were going when I asked you so many times in the afternoon?"
"If I had told you, you would have interfered in that matter as well. As such you courted so much trouble. Henceforth…"
"Does the Prime Minister know about the meeting that the Kalamugars had and the impending arrival of Prince Madhuranthakar?"
"Of course he knew! That's why he sent me to attend the meeting. At the same time, he also would have sent somebody else to ensure that the Prince does not attend the meeting. You said that some servant held the firelight and that had frightened the horse; he was probably Anirudhar's man. If the horse had thrown the prince somewhere in the forest, be rest assured he would have been rescued by the Prime Minister's men soon enough. By now, the Prince would be on his way to Thanjavur in a palanquin or a chariot. Come! Let us go."
"Vaishnavarey! I can't come."
"What is this? What about our mission? I heard the news that the Prince has already left Kanchi. Shouldn't we be hurrying along to intercept him before he reaches Kadambur…"
"You can give the message that Princess Kundavai has sent for her brother. Prince Karikalar is not like Madhuranthakar. He won't be travelling by palanquin in the night, it wouldn't be that difficult to meet him…"
"And what do you plan to do instead?"
"To tell the truth, I didn't follow Madhuranthakar into the forest. I was following somebody else and I came upon the Prince by a coincidence."
"I know a bit of astrology, shall I test it on you? The person that you were following was a woman, wasn't it?"
"You truly have a wicked tongue and one of these days I am going to break that head of yours…"
"You can't do that. I have already pledged this head of mine to a Kalamugan. Now you tell me who is this woman that you were following from Kudanthai?"
"Kodumbalur Princess Vanathi came to Kudanthai Jodhidhar's house. She left his house on her palanquin. I too left the Jodhidhar's house after some time. I had no intention of following that crazy girl anywhere but the direction of our path was the same and I could see her palanquin being carried at a distance. That's when I saw her being attacked by a group of men. They tied her companion to the tree and had driven away the palanquin bearers. Then they bore the palanquin away. Vaishnavarey! I am very worried about that girl. I want to find out what happened to her?"
"Why are you so worried about that girl?"
"How can you say that? She is after all the only daughter of Kodumbalur Siriya Vellar – the great warrior who lay down his life for the honour of Cholas. She is also the cherished companion of Princess Kundavai and there was also the rumour that she is the chosen bride of Ponniyin Selvar…"
"Ponniyin Selvar is dead and drowned in the sea… what is the point of discussing about his marriage?"
"There is nothing to prove that he is dead… it's just a rumour."
"Then, in that case, you know for sure that he is alive?"
"Vaishnavarey! If you think that I will blurt out secrets to you, then you better forget it."
"Alright! Alright! I will not ask you anything. Don't worry about Vanathi. Princess Kundavai loves her very much…"
"That's exactly why I am worried. Princess Kundavai doesn't know that Vanathi is in such a danger."
"If not today, she will know it tomorrow."
"What's the point? What if the Kalamugars sacrifice this girl at their altar to please their God?"
"You said that Kalamugars took Vanathi along?"
"That's how it looked. Vanathi's companion also described them as Kalamugars."
"If that is true then you don't have to worry about it at all. Kodumbalur clan are great patrons of Kalamugars. If they come to know that Vanathi is the Kodumbalur Princess they will accord royal treatment to her and offer her protection."
"Really! I didn't know that?"
"That's why Kalamugars are strongly protesting against Prince Madhuranthakar as the next heir."
"Who cares if these skull bearing dreadlock Sanyasis protests against the Prince?"
"That's all you know. In this kingdom, many influential and prominent clans and lords are patrons of Kalamugars. Many army commanders belong to their sect. That's why Pazhuvetarayar is courting their good will to support Madhuranthakar's claim but that got foiled thanks to a horse. Now then, are you going to come with me or not?"
Vandiya Devan hesitantly got up and untied his horse from the nearby tree and followed Azhwarkadiyan through the dense forest path. After a long while, they came out of the forest and found their way to the King's road. Azhwarkadiyan looked up and pointed at the sky to Vandiya Devan. They could see the entire length and breath of the comet that had stretched from one end of the sky to the other. As they looked at it a cold wind blew across them and they could see a lone dog howling and crying at some distance.

solve mysteries in between gigs. The whole concept still needed re-working because these bandmates (with a cowardly mascot) were in pursuit of actual ghouls—rather than some villainous human disguised that those meddling kids would unmask at the end of each episode—and came across as rather too scary. The second, familiar version had its cast of characters drawn directly from the old-teenagers portrayed on the series The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis—Norville "Shaggy" Rogers voiced by DJ Casey Kasem and based on the template of beatnik Maynard G Krebs (Bob Denver, later of Gilligan's Island fame) and Velma Dinkley is lifted from the tomboyish Zelda Gilroy (portrayed by Shelia James Kuehl presently a member of the California State Senate) as a couple examples.

Reimagining Farmland and Food Access
Time: Saturday, 11:15 am to 12:45 pm

Key Words: Sustainable land use, circular economy, beginning and disadvantaged farmers, food sovereignty
Since the 1990's, Cuba has served as an exemplar of sustainable farming movements. However, less is known about the state and economic policies that have supported these movements. As part of our research, we traveled to Cuba in January 2017 to engage farmers, university professors and agricultural specialists on aspects of sustainable farming. In our field interviews and literature review we examined the structure of Cuban land management within its food system. Agricultural land can be privately, cooperatively, or state owned. As a unique hybrid of private-state land, Cuba's usufruct system ensures land tenure to farmers who continue to work the land and fulfill a reasonable production quota. This quota system not only powerfully meets food needs for some of the most vulnerable populations, it has been the key method of land access for farmers who otherwise would not have the means to acquire land. With 70% of US agricultural land estimated to transition ownership in the next two decades, and land access cited as a primary challenge for American beginning farmers and ranchers, an usufruct system could be instructive for US agriculture. In Cuba, the usufruct system has promoted some of the most impressive farms in terms of ecological conservation and climate resilience, while enhancing the diets of local populations. Considering the potential for usufruct systems to confront challenges of farmer land access, ecological conservation, diversified diets, and improved rural economies, the model of Cuban policies merit a closer examination. We propose that this private-public partnership deserves support in the US, with dedicated research funds to evaluate the program's efficacy. We seek collaborators and local entities willing to implement trial policies in their state or region. Usufruct stewardship of public land may enable farmer success and shed light on their true merit as conservation and public health heroes.

Let the actress school you.
Let Rashida Jones school you in intersectional feminism.
In case you were confused and thought feminism is just for white people, let the Parks and Rec actress correct you. The longtime outspoken feminist recently spoke to Refinery29 about the history of feminism excluding black women and other minorities.
"Feminism has to be for every woman, and if there's an experience you don't understand, educate yourself. I think because I'm biracial, I have a unique perspective. I am sometimes treated like a woman of color, sometimes not. I also have white feminist friends who want to know what to do, how to better understand their privilege, and how to be helpful. I don't think it's everyone's job to be a bridge, but in this political and cultural climate, I try my best to be patient and instructive."
So what do you do if you find herself falling into the trap of white feminism? Jones advised,
"Listen, listen, listen, and stay open to learning. The inherent issue with privilege is that you can't understand the things you haven't experienced. So staying open and empathetic to all women from different circumstances and unique issues is your best chance to show your support."
Got it? Good!
spreading the feminist word
She previously wrote for Glamour on what it means to be a modern day feminist and she completely slayed her essay!
Rashida wrote,
I still worry about young girls emulating our current hypersexual culture without understanding how to prioritize their own pleasure and self-esteem… But just because someone chooses to be empowered by her sexuality publicly does not mean she is the enemy of progress. Feminism isn't one march toward fairness."
She also spoke about her missteps as a feminist and how it can take quite a few mistakes before getting it right:
There's always room for growth. I once wrote a tweet criticizing celebs who profited from their sex appeal. In it I used the word whore in what I intended to be a tongue-in-cheek manner, and I really wish I hadn't."
We continue to be in awe of Rashida Jones and her honesty and outspokenness regarding feminist issues. We know that nobody is perfect but damn if she doesn't come pretty darn close.

On December 12, the City's Budget Committee met to begin the 2018 City budget review process - the first day of a 4-day review process. The committee did a quick review of the Citizen-Centred Services ("Cluster A") budgets including Affordable Housing Office, Children's Services, Court Services, Economic Development & Culture, Long-Term Care Homes & Services, Parks, Forestry & Recreation, Shelter, Support & Housing Administration (includes TCHC), Social Development, Finance & Administration, Toronto Employment & Social Services & Toronto Paramedic Services budgets, as well as, the Toronto Public Health budget.
Read Part 1 of the highlights, plus information on upcoming Social Planning Toronto and partner City budget forums, links to City budget documents and more. Coming tomorrow: Part 2 of the human services budget highlights. Lots more to share.
What's Your Better Toronto? Community Vision for a Better Toronto, Big on Bloor, Summer 2017
Preliminary Budget Highlights
Human Services Overview
City staff presented an overview of the 2018 preliminary budget for Cluster A, which includes many of the human services budgets. The presentation provided an overview of 2017 accomplishments, challenges affecting these City services in 2018 and beyond, some plans for the future, and an introduction to the operating and capital budgets. Some new priorities for 2018 include the development of a plan to grow the shelter infrastructure system and the development and implementation of a Youth Employment Action Plan focused on work-based learning opportunities for youth. Ongoing priorities include continued implementation of the Poverty Reduction Strategy and Child Care Growth Strategy, implementation of Toronto for All and the Anti-Black Racism Action Plan, and continued advancement of the Seniors Strategy and the modernization of the social housing system.
On slides 65-68, the Cluster A presentation details the new and enhanced programs and services that are NOT INCLUDED in the preliminary budget and have been referred to the budget process for consideration. These include several poverty reduction initiatives including:
- 825 new child care spaces plus several additional child care related initiatives and supports (paid for mostly by provincial funding; of the $48 million required to include these spaces and supports in the budget, the City of Toronto needs to add $2.1 million; the rest comes from senior orders of government)(the Budget Chief has stated that he and the Mayor will support the addition of these spaces and supports in the budget)
- Toronto Community Housing's Tenants First Implementation Project; while not included in the preliminary budget, the $3 million required to implement Phase 1 of the recommendations, if added to the budget, would be fully funded by TCHC reserves and not impact property tax or other municipal revenues; according to the Budget Notes: "The program includes three pilots: one in Etobicoke that will test a decentralized service model that is more responsive to tenant needs, and two other community development pilots focused on aligning Youth programs and services in Rexdale and the creation of a local action plan in Scarborough." For more on the Phase 1 recommendations, read this.
- Transit Fare Equity Program, Phase 1; this is the discounted TTC pass for Ontario Works and Ontario Disability Support Program recipients who do not receive transportation supports; City cost is $4.6 million in 2018
- Equity responsive budgeting ($105,000) and Poverty Reduction Strategy evaluation ($150,000) to guide the successful implementation of the strategy; read Tuesday's City staff briefing note on the equity impacts of the 2018 budget. The additional funding would support further development of equity responsive budgeting at the City and facilitate evaluation of the PRS.
- Community Medicine @ Home Program expansion ($355,000); according to the City Budget Notes: "This enhanced service priority requires $0.355 million gross and net in 2018 for 5 Community Paramedics and four (4) vehicles to provide coverage throughout the City from 6:00 am to midnight with the potential for 24 hour coverage 7 days a week. Currently, the Program operates from 06:00 am to 4:00 pm, which leaves significant gaps in service delivery. The Program will help in mitigating 911 emergency medical call demand, which has been increasing by 4% to 5% per year. This will be achieved through community paramedics visits to frequent user clients and connecting them with existing supporting resources, thus getting them the care they need which mitigates further 911 calls." Capital funds will also be needed for vehicles for this program.
These are the new and enhanced programs from Cluster A divisions that have been referred to the budget process and NOT INCLUDED in the preliminary budget.
The Toronto Public Health budget, also presented at the meeting, includes new and enhanced programs and services that have been referred to the budget process and NOT INCLUDED in the preliminary budget, including Student Nutrition Program expansion (part of Poverty Reduction Strategy), adult dental program expansion for Ontario Works recipients (100% provincial funding already committed for this program expansion), expansion of the Toronto Urban Health Fund, and student immunization expansion. Read our previous post on this topic here and see Toronto Public Health budget presentation here.
Part 2 of the human services budgets analysis will be posted tomorrow.

The 2014 edition of Bells on Yonge will take place on Sunday, September 14th.
The group ride will depart at 12:15 p.m. from the northwest corner of Yonge St. and Hendon Ave. (just south of the Finch subway Kiss-and-Ride, and the Finch Hydro Corridor). Riders will head south down Yonge Street. This first section is for accomplished cyclists and the pace will be moderately fast.
The second start point is Duplex Parkette, on the west side of Yonge about 3 blocks south of Lawrence Ave. This is the most convenient point for cyclists who live in North Toronto to join the ride. We will depart Duplex Parkette at 12:45 and continue south at a more leisurely pace to Ramsden Park, which is located opposite the Rosedale subway station. After a short break to pick up more cyclists and we will resume the journey at 1:30p p.m. southward to City Hall and Nathan Phillips Square. We plan to stay on Yonge to Queen Street but it is possible the police will at some point direct us to shift over to Bay or University. We will arrive at City Hall before 2:00, when BIKESTOCK is scheduled to start.
Individual cyclists may also join us anywhere along the route,or you may also choose to form your own group and join the main ride at any point along the way.
The ride will end at 2:00 p.m. at Nathan Philips Square (City Hall), in time for BIKESTOCK, a festival of music and a few short speeches, to promote safe cycling in Toronto.
For more information go to BIKESTOCK. Bells on Yonge riders will converge at Bikestock with cyclists who are participating in Bells on Bloor, Bells on Danforth, and other rides.
Please join our Facebook page.

The exact starting points are shown on the following maps:
NORTH YORK – 12:15 p.m The northern start point is at a small parkette just south of the Finch subway Kiss-and-Ride, and one block north of Finch Avenue. The Finch hydro-corridor crosses Yonge Street north of this location.
NORTH TORONTO – 12:45 pm. Duplex Parkette is three blocks south of Lawrence and beside the PetroCan station. We had to move the location up the side street, Chatsworth Dr.

THE average price of a semi-detached house in Stockport has soared by £13,000 during the past year.
And detached houses are now £18,000 dearer than 12 months ago, while the average home price has risen by £8,000.
Figures just released by the Land Registry for the second quarter of this year (up to June 30) show that the average semi in Stockport now costs £93,019 - compared with £80,606 at the same time last year and £90,336 in the first quarter of 2001.
Detached houses now average £173,813, compared with £155,687 a year ago and £170,511 in the first quarter.
Terraced houses are £61,568 now, were £53,359 a year ago and £57,318 between January and March this year.
The figures for flats and maisonettes are £72,425 now, £64,668 last year and £69,646 in the first quarter.
This brings the average price for a property in Stockport to £93,457, compared with £85,273 a year ago.
One of the main reasons for the big increase in Stockport property prices is supply and demand.
Just 1,238 properties were sold in Stockport between April and June this year, compared with 1,722 during the corresponding period last year. The figures for Stockport are much higher than the average for the North West, which is now £73,408, compared with £66,944 between April and June 2000.
The average price for the whole of England and Wales is now £117,398, a figure inflated by the heated housing economy in London - where the average is £205,831 - and the South East (average £147,617).
Ian Tonge, a former president of the National Association of Estate Agents, who has businesses in Stockport and Disley, said the big increase in house prices was caused by the relationship between supply and demand.
He said: "We are seeing an average increase of about 12 per cent, although it can be more or less than this in some cases depending on how many houses of a particular type are for sale in a particular place."
Mr Tonge said the local housing market was still very buoyant, although it tended to slow down a bit in August when so many people were on holiday.

Everyone's looking for a job that does not only pay well but is also interesting. Of course, the best job to have is when you get to be your own boss and work whenever you want to, but that does not guarantee you a the income that you need.
There are thousands of job vacancies everywhere, both in the public and private sector, but not all of these job openings pay well. The key to finding the right job for you with a generous pay is to look for a career that is in demand in the society. Not only that, it is best to look for jobs in the government.
Year by year, job openings in the government change, but one cannot deny the fact that they pay much more than job openings in the private sector. The best government jobs for the year 2015 not only offers jobs with high salary but also internships with the chances of getting the job permanently.
Here are the best government jobs for the year based on the benefits and salary one can earn:
An astronomer is a scientist that focuses on the study of the heavenly or celestial bodies, namely planets, starts, moons, black holes, comets, nebulae, asteroids and galaxies. They are concentrated not on the universe alone but about the world beyond the earth.
Surprisingly, the number of American astronomers is quite small. That is why Americans are encouraged and empowered to join the force to fill the need for more astronomers by the government.
There are five job openings for astronomers in the government for 2015: Aeronautical Imagery, Aeronautical Analyst, NASA astronaut, Airline Pilots and Flight Engineers, and Aerospace Engineer. The salary offered by the government goes as high as $116,072, and they are currently in need of 27,000 employees.
Attorneys or lawyers a greatly in demand, not only for private offices but more for the government offices. They are needed in the Federal area to investigate cases in the Department of Justice or other offices of the government. They also help in the formulation and implementation of laws.
There are three departments in the US that are in great need for lawyers: Department of Justice, Department of the Treasury, and Department of the Interior. The highest paying job offers as high as $114,240.
Financial Manager
Financial Managers are in charge of the financial health of any system or company. They do all things related to finances, such as creating reports, auditing, investment plans and the financial overall status of the company at present and in the future.
The state that pays the highest in terms of financial managers is New York. The three departments of the government in need of financial managers are the Army, Department of Veterans Affairs and the Department of Treasury.
General Engineer
A general engineer in the government can earn up to $100,051 and the two departments in most need are the Department of Energy and the Department of the Interior. Their main job is with regards to energy and infrastructures. To be able to get the job, you must have a bachelor's degree in engineering.
All countries in the world have numerous economists hired in their offices because they have a very critical job involving data and statistics vital in determining trends in a country's economy. Applicants who are PhD holders will more likely get the job than those who do not. You can earn as much as $94,098.
Computer Scientist
Due to the advancements in technology, it's no wonder why computer scientists are needed by the government. Their main job is to work as theorists, researchers or inventors. They are required to collect data pertinent to the government, review and analyze it and store it confidentially.
A chemist is a scientist trained to study the composition of things and its different properties. Most chemists are usually hired by big pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology firms. There are three departments that are in need of chemists: the Department of Health and Human Services, Department of Homeland Security and the Department of the Navy.
