Cath Anne: [00:01:56] So today we are doing something a little different. I am sharing a little bit more about my life as a freelancer. And today Im providing you with five things I absolutely can not live without as a freelancer and I hope as students you will relate to this to as many of you know I have been writing with Homework Help Global for over three years and it is a wonderful organization to work for. I am so happy that they helped me kick off my freelance lifestyle and I cant wait to share with you the many things that I cannot live with in my day as a freelancer. OK so a number one on my list. Are these Bose over the ear headphones. Now these are amazing headphones and they were actually gifted to me from my friends at Homework Help Global because we do an amazing podcast which Ill talk about a little bit later. Cath Anne: [00:03:01] These Bose headphones are so amazing. I cannot even express to you how great they are. I dont know what I did without them. Actually I cannot really hear myself talking at the moment because they work so well. I hope Im not talking too loud. But yes, so Ill just see if you guys can see the label there. So these Bose headphones these ones are not wireless. However I do believe you can get wireless ones. Now these are a little bit older however. They work super well. They work well for everything I need them for which I think is a huge testament to the brand Bose itself and I should mention this isnt a paid collaboration or anything like that. Im not being paid to say this. Im just telling you about the amazing things that I need on a day to day basis and this is one of them. Cath Anne: [00:03:57] Whether I am going out into the community to a meeting and I decide to walk I take these with me if Im going to the cafe to do some work these work amazing because I can listen to my music and they block out all the surrounding noise around me while Im also able to be around people and see people I know. The other thing that I really love these for is for podcasting. So we do a great podcast called Student influencers podcast where we talk to students and influencers from all around the world. So whether it is in India or in the US or in Canada we talk to influencers from across the world. And these are the headphones that I use for that. Why are these great for that podcast. Well theyre wonderful because they block out the sound. So when I use my highly sensitive microphone the Yeti stereo microphone these are blocked with the noise coming through from the other end which is absolutely perfect for podcasting because you dont want any noise interference when yo u are podcasting. Now I should mention that if you guys want to be involved in the student influencers podcast make sure to find us on Instagram or email us all of our information is linked in listed in the description box below and connect with us. If you think that a podcast would be interesting to be a participant in if you have a unique vision. If you are an influencer or a student we would love to hear from you. So make sure to hit us up and let us know that youre interested. Cath Anne: [00:05:37] Finally make sure you take a listen to our student influencers podcast and we will also link that in the description multiple though so you can check it out. So the second thing that I absolutely cannot live without. And if youre a follower of the channel you may recognize this from some of our other videos where Ive discussed it in passing or blatantly is a moleskin notebook. I absolutely love these notebooks for many reasons. So the first reason I love moleskin notebook is because its black, its very streamlined and it looks professional when I go into a meeting and I can take notes really easily. Cath Anne: [00:06:15] I love that I can take this wherever I go it fits easily into my backpack or my laptop bag and what I really love about it is that when I take notes or make my daily to do lists everything is in the same book. So I usually invest in one or two of these notebooks at the beginning of the year and they usually both last me throughout the year which I absolutely love keeping everything in one place or one notebook is a lot more organized than only having different random pieces of paper all around the place. So if you are a student or if you are a freelancer I highly recommend getting a few moleskin notebooks, labelling them if you want to and using them to your advantage. Another really great way that I love to use my moleskin notebook is to make my daily to do list and lets see if I can find one here for you. Cath Anne: [00:07:08] So here is an example of my one of my daily to do lists. So what I do on a daily basis is I go through my agenda and I look at what I have on the agenda for the day and if I have any specific deadlines I then write that down in my daily to do list and when I have finished a task I check it off with a colored marker or a colored pen. Cath Anne: [00:07:34] Now Ill tell you why this is beneficial. 1 When you write things down you can prioritize. So I would recommend prioritizing three tasks in the day by limiting your tasks to three. You are allowing yourself to be more productive and avoiding the overwhelm that comes with too many tasks. Even though I do write down other smaller tasks throughout the day I definitely prioritize only three tasks for the day. And this is something that I would recommend to you whether youre a freelancer a person that works in an office or if youre a student. The second reason that I think writing your lists like this is a great idea is because you can go through and check things off checking things off. Especially in a different color allows you to increase your motivation. So once you have finished one of your priorities for the day. Check that off and it is going to make you feel productive and that you have completed something. Its going to give you energy and fuel to move on to your next task. Finally one of my favorite reasons for using a most skin notebook is that it allows me to have a log of all of the work that Ive completed. So if youre like me you might be a person who never thinks they do enough. So in a day you might do a ton of different tasks but you dont write them down or you dont document them in any way. And I think this can relate to a student anyone in their own business. A freelancer or even anyone who is working in a 9 to 5 type of traditional job. When you write things down in list form and check them off it gives you an intentional log of what you have done for the day. So if you have a tendency to get down on yourself or think youre not doing enough go back to your notebook and look at what you have done in the day and you will realize that you are much more productive than you ever thought. So the third thing that I absolutely can not live without and Im sure Im not the only one is of course my phone and my lightning charger now beca use I am a freelancer. I go out into community a lot I have meetings I go to cafes to work and even when Im home I use my phone a lot. I have a lot of different apps on there. I do a lot of other peoples social media so having a lightning charger or several is absolutely integral to the work I try to never leave the house without taking my lightning charger with me. And if youre like me I would recommend that you do the same. So definitely my phone and my lightning charger are up there on things that I can not live without. I also wanted to mention that I have a lot of really great apps for productivity for meal ducking for work tracking and for invoicing things like that around freelancing and I was wondering if anyone would have an interest in me providing some info around that. So that something that you are interested in if youd like to know some of my favorite apps that are on my phone. Definitely jump into the comments section below and let us know if that is something that yo ud be interested in hearing about. OK. Cath Anne: [00:11:01] So the next thing that I wanted to mention is something that is relatively new to me and that is theres a little wallet and you might be like whatever its just a wallet. However it is simply perfect for carrying business cards. And this is something that I always tend to forget when I go out into community or to meetings which is so silly because people ask for your business card and Im not used to carrying one. So this little number has been great for me to just throw in my bag throw my laptop bag and take with me this little wallet is from a brand called some mirror and they make a vegan leather products and its just perfect. This little one is just perfect for carrying business cards so Ill show you it just pops open like this and then I keep my business cards right in here which I absolutely love. So the other reason I really love this is because its also perfect for when people give me their business cards I can keep it in here and then I have everyones bu siness card all in one spot. Even though we are living in a digital age and we communicate a lot on our computers there is something to be said about carrying a business card and having a snapshot of who you are what you do and how to get a hold of you. So I definitely recommend if youre in your third or fourth year of university to look into getting a business card created with your profession and your future degree on it. This will come in handy at networking events and let people know how to get hold of you. So this one is going to be a little bit silly but the this saying that I simply cannot live without. As a freelancer. Are my plants and my candles. And this might be something that youve noticed. If youve been watching our videos for a while I always have plants in the background and I usually have a candle lit and Ill tell you why this is. I work a lot from home. I do go out to community sometimes however most of my days are spent at home so I want to make sure that I can se t the tone for when Im working. Every morning when I wake up. Before I start working I light a vanilla scented candle. Ive really been loving the vanilla candles from Ikea. I also like vanilla soy candles and green apple candles have really been up there lately for me too. I always also have at least one or two plants on my desk at any given time as well as. Throughout my house. And Ill tell you why this is this is because I work alone. I work by myself and I work in my house. I need things that are going to inspire me. I mean things that are going to set the tone for my work day. Its really easy to get distracted by the dishes or the laundry that has to be done. So setting the tone for my day and placing beautiful things around me inspires me to create and motivates me to keep going throughout the day. Now this isnt just for freelancers. This is something that I would recommend for anyone thats working from home. And this includes people like students. So when you are going to stud y light a candle diffuse some essential oils or put some plants around you. This is going to help you to focus and to feel relaxed when you are trying to do something that is maybe not your favorite activity. I talk more about this in episode 53 of The Homework Help Show so definitely make sure to check that out and we will link that in the description box below.

Literary Analysis Ready Player One By Ernest Cline

Literature is a work of art that is constructed with the fundamental purpose of conveying meaning and messages to readers. Although the idea that is expressed is decided by the author, its underlying messages can be interpreted in various ways by different readers. Literature often explores the gap between reality and imagination. Such an examination can easily lead to a false sense of reality, which promotes the oversimplification of life at a great cost. By oversimplifying reality, people may turn a blind eye to issues that need to be addressed for the sake of social justice. Often times, facing reality is despised because it may create problems that individuals are unable to solve. This is important to note because literature has the†¦show more content†¦Wade was able to speak freely to other avatars without fearing being judged and was able to find a significant other through OASIS as well. His two lives juxtapose each other as Wade was isolated in reality, but desperate for social inclusions in OASIS. Moreover, Wade’s actions reinforces my opinion of literature having the ability to oversimplify reality as his experience encourages readers to seek happiness even if it means to lose individuality. Although oversimplification is encouraged in the novel, when the creator of OASIS, Halliday, congratulates Wade on his victory of retrieving Halliday’s Egg, he states, â€Å"As terrifying and painful as reality can be, it’s also the only place where you can find happiness† (Cline 364). Evidently, Halliday forms a contradictory outlook on life as he spent most of his within OASIS yet he still believes that true happiness can only be found in the real world. The juxtaposition of how reality can be both painful and rewarding is introduced through Halliday’s ironic worldviews that emphasize the dangers of a skewed reality. The distortion of reality can prompt misunderstandings of the complex ideas of society like race, gender and even relationships, which may interfere with the flow of life. This leads me to question whether oversimplification prompts a false sense of happiness and if it promotes a mindset based on the philosophy that â€Å"ignorance is bliss †? Ignorance through the

Is Television Detrimental Free Essays

Television is just another part of technology keeping us from viewing the world and living our lives as we should. Instead of coming out of our house and taking on any challenge the world might have for us, we easily give up to our laziness, which quickly makes us grab the bag of chips, the soda, and sit down. Even though I am one of the many people who just loves to have the remote by their side, I strongly believe that television is nothing but detrimental to our society. We will write a custom essay sample on Is Television Detrimental or any similar topic only for you Order Now Watching television might seem like an easy and fun way to kill our time, but is time the only thing it kills?For instance, â€Å"Unfortunately, our old friends greed and sloth entered the picture and transformed it into a 24-hour ad-plastered, brainwashing, individuality bleaching, stereotyping, couch-potato making tool of society† (Corbett Trubey). Television is clearly considered the best source of entertainment we all have; however, sitting on a couch brings nothing but a lazy habit to most of us. That lazy habit is what keeps us coming back for more entertainment but once we’re being entertained, we don’t realize the addiction. The strong addiction we have towards television kills more than time, it internally kills the viewers.The way they think slowly changes. Having the television right in front of us leaves us with no other choice than to watch it. The moment we decide to turn the TV on and select a channel, we simply shut our brain down. For instance, â€Å"You no more challenge your mind by watching these intelligent shows than you challenge your body watching Monday Night Football† (Steven Johnson). Once we are in front of the television, all we can think of is, well, nothing. Most people are so caught up with the show that they don’t even realize the real situations surrounding them.We often tend to use television as a probe to escape reality. Television shows are far from being as real as the world. â€Å" There’s a big, beautiful world out there, and not even the widest TV screen or the sweetest Animal Planet documentary can compare to the real view† ( Corbett Trubey ). Viewers easily get encouraged to do things they hear on television. Join the Army, buy Gillette, switch to ATT. Some people are able to use what their brain has left and ignore all these advertisements while others decide to use Gillette as soon as they see Derek Jeter using one.Or, they switch to ATT but quickly end up finding out that it sucks just as much as their former company did. All these programming and ads tell you all the good things about their products but there are people who are just dumb enough to not realize it. â€Å"Watching TV is a lot like smoking. People know all the crummy effects and continue to do it anyways† ( Ronald Bailey ). You will occasionally come to a point where you start questioning whether TV is good or bad for you. Most likely, you will conclude that it is a bad thing.However, no matter how hard you try to keep yourself from watching it again, you certainly can’t stop. All the comedy, all the drama, everything a show offers, it will just make us wonder about future shows and because of that, we continue to watch. Television kills many things in our life. It kills years, cells, and knowledge. In this case, we can easily revive ourselves by putting an end to this continuous action. I am not saying we should not watch television at all, but one thing we can definitely do is reduce the time we spend in front of it. How to cite Is Television Detrimental, Papers

What is not Science an Example of the Topic Science and Technology Essays by

What is not Science? Science is a broad category which includes discoveries and experiments based on hypotheses and predictions. Thus there is knowledge and academic disciplines which cannot be interpreted as science. Most of them are based on scientific knowledge and principles but has nothing to do with science. Need essay sample on "What is not Science?" topic? We will write a custom essay sample specifically for you Proceed In science, prediction once made, its confirmation depends often on events over which the scientist can exercise no vestige of control. The real world having been constituted a "something," the principle of intelligibility asserts man's capacity, perhaps even his obligation to understand that something. Non-science does not make predictions and do not test hypotheses. It does not multiplies and diversifies the range of possibilities humanly attainable, among which researchers choose those they will make realities (Wolfram, 2002). It is possible to distinguish between basic science, applied science and technology. The presence or absence of constraint is a distinction far more important than that now doubtfully drawn between pure and applied science. Basic science is based on development of scientific theories. The research does not take into account scientific applications of the theories and practical usage. Applied science is a sphere of research that investigates application of knowledge and practical application of scientific theories. One might attempt to distinguish as applied science the endeavor to prepare nitrogen mustard with superior properties as a chemotherapeutic agent and as basic science some general study of cell metabolism. In both cases constraint to a rigid program set down at the outset sharply reduces the chances that scientifically important results will be obtained (Wolfram, 2002). When the nonscientist supports science most often his interest is not in science as such, but only in science as contributor to the cosmology or technology in which he does take an active interest. Support given out of concern for technology appears quite early: the Ptolemys had quite practical reasons for supporting the Alexandrian Museum. As the modern era opened, experimental science gained a foothold in the universities as the affiliate of already established technologic and cosmologic concerns; i.e., as a subject studied by students of medicine and divinity, respectively. Beyond providing an abundance of materials and devices, serviceable to science as experimental tools, the technology opened the way to new conceptual tools (Wolfram, 2002). On a new wealth of industrial experience was founded a new and (in the issue) powerful group of mechanistic concepts and analogies, as alternative to the limited and limiting group of animistic concepts and analogies used in ancient science. Emphasis on science immediately applicable to the problems of technology necessarily diverts support, and men, from the kind of science that, following to their unexpected ends lines of research having little or no apparent relevance to current technologic problems and practice, leads ultimately to complete reconstruction of the technologic horizon (Strogatz, 2003). In the classroom, basic science is theories and knowledge, terms and concepts studies by students. Applied science means practical application of knowledge in laboratory. Technology means devices and mechanisms used for practical application of theories and their outcomes. The acceptable evidence and scientific explanations are based on testing and improvements, evaluation and replication. Scientists work with theoretical postulates which are not necessarily self-evident, and so gain power to work with a far greater range of possibilities than before. Believing in scientific progress, scientists are confident that, if never "self-evident", postulates will some day be explained, though then only in terms of still more fundamental postulates themselves unexplained (Basic versus Applied Science 2007). Acceptable evidence deals primarily with what is experienced by all mankind; science encompasses, in addition, what is experienced, in the laboratory, by but a few (Wolfram, 2002). This distinction seems unimportant: the special experience of scientists is potentially available to all willing to enter the laboratory. The fundamental distinction between the data acceptable to science and those acceptable to research arises from what has repeatedly been stress ed: the involvement of judgment in our use of the three criteria for the selection of subject matter shared by common sense and science. As it begins science judges the acceptability of subject matter much as common sense does (Strogatz, 2003). As science develops, as its view of the world becomes more highly elaborated, it makes these judgments differently (Basic versus Applied Science 2007). The main methods involved in science are observations, prediction, control, falsifiability, causal explanation. Science does simplify the observations to be made that the possibility of observational error is minimized. Observation is reduced to reading the position of a needle that moves across a graduated scale until it points to "the result." Knowing the relations of common sense to be imperfect, we usually permit the survival even of relations that yield frequent unaccountable failures in prediction. Science giving purposive explanations in answering "Why" questions yields to a science giving casual explanations in answering "How" questions; and this may, in its turn, yield ground to a science furnishing only functional relations (Wolfram, 2002). In sum, the main difference between the non-science disciplines and science is instruments and methods used for analysis and knowledge retrieval. The main characteristic of science is new knowledge creation, discovers and new application of existing knowledge while other academic disciplines use these ready-made knowledge for their purposes. The use of instruments enormously facilitates the application in science of the concurrence criterion of "fact" acknowledged by both science and common sense.

buy custom â€Å"Significant Relationship† essay A study was conducted by George E. Arnold to analyze the relationship between the styles of leadership and its impact upon the success of a virtual project. Today, world has seen a considerable increase in virtual projects. Estimates show that in 2004 about thirteen million employees in US were part of at least one team making virtual projects. About five hundred project management professional-certified project manager of the Kansas City, Missouri, Metropolitan area was assessed for the study. These managers were evaluated upon questionnaires. Which were divided in to three sections? These questionnaires were administered via emails. A total of two hundred and twenty nine responded of the selected sample of five hundred. The response rate was about half of the selected population, it seemed significant with the total of two hundred and eighteen responses needed to prove the variables at the selected confidence interval. (George E. Arnold, 2008) The study showed that a significant relationship prevails among different leadership styles mostly importantly transformational leadership and project success in virtual projects. Quantitative analysis was done of the data. This data is expected to help leaders in comprehending the affect of different styles of leadership on the progress of different projects formulated for virtual communication among organizations. (George E. Arnold, 2008) The usage of collaborative technology is growing at high rate in this rapidly growing environment. Today organizations are required to install virtual projects to bring close people from different geographical locations. The creation of virtual team will help the organizations perform their functions at different georgraphical locations bridging the gap of time and distance. This type of team supports the organization to bring close several talented people unable to maintain face to face working relations in different projects of virtual teams. Virtual project teams create unique leadership challenges. These types of teams do encounter restrictions in face to face communication therefore their activities are impeded due to primary leadership activities. (George E. Arnold, 2008) The selection of an accurate and suitable style of leadership is necessary to maintain the functioning and success of virtual projects. (George E. Arnold, 2008) It is assumed that future organizations will require such leaders that will be capable to handle uncertainty and competition among a different working people. This will help leaders attain the viability and profitability of their organizations. The second category is mostly used in the consultants or external assessors orin business to business activities like B2B e-commerce. These categorization also depend upon the principle of proximity to explicit whether employees are geographically close to each other or are scattered. A work-cycle synchronicity was designed to understand the interaction of the participants at different time periods (George E. Arnold, 2008) A virtual project team is a group of geographically dispersed workers brought together across time and space through information and communication technologies. These teams work in unison and are very close to each other despite having temporal, spatial and cultural differences. They mostly communicate via conference calls, video conferences, email etc. this is leading to the development of a new leadership role in the criterion. Advancements in the technical and collaborative soft wares increases the utilization of virtual team. These types of teams play an important role in maintaining reductions in the real estate expenses, increased productivity, higher profits, environmental benefits and greater access to global markets. (George E. Arnold, 2008) The analysis of the data in the study show that a statistically significant relationship prevails between transformational leadership and project success in virtual projects. In fact transformational style of leadership has emerged as a prominent and most effective leadership style especially in the virtual projects and their success. Though, some of the personalities characteristics of transformational leadership are not prominent in case of virtual projects and teams for instance charisma and vision. Organizations are developing certain trans-national teams to perform in an effective manner. It will help to overcome certain means of efficiency and flexibility to reduce certain problems (Daphna, Niv and Dalia, 2005) This restriction of characteristics helps in the effective understanding of the virtual leadership. Transactional leadership is also significant in virtual leadership for it helps in the comprehension of task completion. . Hence, it is necessary for the leaders nowadays to possess certain skills with the help of which they can interact with people in a successful manner. Leaders must have skills to lead with success in this widely altering world. It is necessary for the leader to aware people of the virtual communication methods present. In this way they will be able to select the most felicitous for themselves and their organization. (Daphna, Niv and Dalia, 2005) Daphna et all conducted a study to find out the influence of the division of Labor, Hierarchy and work process upon the efficiency, effectiveness and satisfaction of virtual leadership. TThe structure of the virtual leaders can increase the corporate output of such leaders. The outcomes of the study suggest that the virtual-structured teams are more successful than virtual-unstructured teams. The functioning of the virtual teams is expected to enhance in future. (Daphna, Niv and Dalia, 2005) During previous few years team working has came into existence several organizations are now using teams to perform their functions. The usage of virtual team has gained attention and significance in various organizations most of these are international organizations that perform their activities at the global level. Therefore on the basis it the teams can be defined as part of the model that predicts the influence of the virtuality and structural levels on processes, social and tasks, that effect team output. (Daphna, Niv and Dalia, 2005) Most common question asked these days is that Has the virtual era put an end to team structure. Today the teams virtuality level has be accepted as an integral construct of the definition of team. Several variables are affected by the teams virtual level such as face to face members of team posses high degree of cohesiveness, they are capable to maintain stronger social ties, they are more task oriented and show a dedication towards tasks and participants of the teams. They also possess an affectionate relationship with each other. However, in case of the time period to maintain stronger social ties is more. Virtual teams take more time to maintain stronger ties with people. Similarly, it has a negative influence upon the outcomes of the teams. Frequency and distance are considered responsible for it. The unfamiliarity among the team members is also a factor that hinders in the exchange of ideas and information among team members. (Daphna, Niv and Dalia, 2005) About fifteen interviews were conducted among the team members. It was found that the virtual leader are being treated as something novel, something which does not posses the proper item to operate with. Explicitly, all the members f virtual teams know that a virtual team operate in isolation and does not involve the participation of structural characteristics. The method of communication suggests what kind of processes is involved in the virtual teams. The processes can be either task or social oriented. Usually, Virtual communication is task oriented this type of communication is cheaper than face-to-face communication. The entire study found that certain level of reforms is needed in the task orientation to maintain and control virtual communication. However more organization is required for this purpose.

Demeter and the Abduction of Persephone

Demeter and the Abduction of Persephone The story of the abduction of Persephone is more a story about Demeter than it is about her daughter Persephone, so were starting this re-telling of the rape of Persephone beginning with her mother Demeters relationship with one of her brothers, her daughters father, the king of the gods, who refused to step in to help- at least in a timely manner. Demeter, goddess of the earth and grain, was sister to Zeus, as well as Poseidon and Hades. Because Zeus betrayed her by his involvement in the rape of Persephone, Demeter left Mt.Olympus to wander among men. Hence, although a throne on Olympus was her birthright, Demeter is sometimes not counted among the Olympians. This secondary status did nothing to lessen her importance for the Greeks and Romans. The worship associated with Demeter, the Eleusinian Mysteries, endured until it was suppressed in the Christian era. Demeter and Zeus Are Parents of Persephone Demeters relationship with Zeus had not always been so strained: He was the father of her much-loved, white-armed daughter, Persephone. Persephone grew up to be a beautiful young woman who enjoyed playing with the other goddesses on Mt. Aetna, in Sicily. There they gathered and smelled the beautiful flowers. One day, a narcissus caught Persephones eye, so she plucked it to get a better look, but as she pulled it from the ground, a rift formed... Demeter had not been watching too carefully. After all, her daughter was grown. Besides, Aphrodite, Artemis, and Athena were there to watch- or so Demeter assumed. When Demeters attention returned to her daughter, the young maiden (called Kore, which is Greek for maiden) had vanished. Where Was Persephone? Aphrodite, Artemis, and Athena didnt know what had happened, it had been so sudden. One moment Persephone was there, and the next she wasnt. Demeter was beside herself with grief. Was her daughter dead? Abducted? What had happened? No one seemed to know. So Demeter roamed the countryside looking for answers. Zeus Goes Along With Persephones Abduction After Demeter had wandered for 9 days and nights, searching for her daughter as well as taking out her frustrations by randomly torching the earth, the 3-faced goddess Hekate told the anguished mother that while she had heard Persephones cries, she had not been able to see what had happened. So Demeter asked Helios, the sun god- he had to know since he sees all that happens above the ground during the day. Helios told Demeter that Zeus had given their daughter to The Invisible (Hades) for his bride and that Hades, acting on that promise, had taken Persephone home to the Underworld. The imperious king of the gods  Zeus  had dared to give  Demeters daughter Persephone away to Hades, the dark lord of the Underworld, without asking! Imagine Demeters outrage at this revelation. When the sun god  Helios  insinuated that  Hades  was a good match, it added insult to injury. Demeter and Pelops Rage soon reverted to great sorrow. It was during this period that Demeter absentmindedly ate a piece of Pelops shoulder at a banquet for the gods. Then came depression, which meant Demeter couldnt even think about doing her work. Since the goddess wasnt providing food, soon no one would eat. Not even Demeter. Famine would strike mankind. Demeter and Poseidon It didnt help when Demeters third brother, the lord of the sea,  Poseidon, turned against her as she wandered in Arcadia. There he tried to rape her. Demeter saved herself by turning into a mare grazing along with the other horses. Unfortunately, horse-god Poseidon easily spotted his sister, even in mares form, and so, in stallion form, Poseidon raped the horse-Demeter. If ever she had given a thought to returning to live on Mt. Olympus, this was the clincher. Demeter Wanders the Earth Now, Demeter was not a heartless goddess. Depressed, yes. Vengeful? Not particularly, but she did expect to be treated well- at least by mortals- even in the guise of an old Cretan woman. Gecko Killing Pleases Demeter By the time Demeter reached Attica, she was more than parched. Given water to drink, she took the time to sate her thirst. By the time she had stopped, an on-looker, Ascalabus, was laughing at the gluttonous old woman. He said she didnt need a cup, but a tub to drink out of. Demeter was insulted, so throwing water at Ascalabus, she turned him into a gecko.Then Demeter continued on her way about another fifteen miles. Demeter Gets a Job Upon arriving at Eleusis, Demeter sat down by an old well where she began to cry. Four daughters of Celeus, the local chieftain, invited her to meet their mother, Metaneira. The latter was impressed with the old woman and offered her the position of nurse to her infant son. Demeter accepted. Demeter Tries to Make an Immortal In exchange for the hospitality shed been extended, Demeter wanted to do a service for the family, so she set about to make the baby immortal by the usual immersion in fire and ambrosia technique. It would have worked, too, if Metaneira hadnt spied on the old nurse one night as she suspended the ambrosia-anointed infant over the fire. The mother screamed. Demeter, indignant, put the child down, never to resume the treatment, then revealed herself in all her divine glory, and demanded that a temple is built in her honor where she would teach her worshipers her special rites. Demeter Refuses to Do Her Work After the temple was built Demeter continued to reside at Eleusis, pining for her daughter and refusing to feed the earth by growing grain. No one else could do the work since Demeter had never taught anyone else the secrets of agriculture. Persephone and Demeter Reunited Zeus- ever mindful of the gods need for worshipers- decided he had to do something to placate his raging sister  Demeter. When soothing words wouldnt work, as a last resort Zeus sent  Hermes  to  Hades  to bring the daughter of Demeter back up to the light. Hades agreed to let his wife Persephone go back, but first, Hades offered Persephone a farewell meal. Persephone knew she couldnt eat in the Underworld if she ever hoped to return to the land of the living, and so she had diligently observed a fast, but Hades, her would-be husband, was so kind now that she was about to return to her mother Demeter, that Persephone lost her head for a second- long enough to eat a pomegranate seed or six. Perhaps  Persephone  didnt lose her head. Perhaps she had already grown fond of her implacable husband. At any rate, according to a covenant among the gods, the consumption of food guaranteed that Persephone would be allowed (or forced) to return to the Underworld and Hades. And so it was arranged that Persephone could be with her mother Demeter for two-thirds of the year, but would spend the remaining months with her husband. Accepting this compromise, Demeter agreed to let seeds sprout from the earth for all but three months a year- the time known as winter- when Demeters daughter Persephone was with Hades. Spring returned to the earth and would again every year when Persephone returned to her mother Demeter. To further show her goodwill to man, Demeter gave another of Celeus sons, Triptolemus, the first grain of corn and lessons in ploughing and harvesting. With this knowledge, Triptolemus traveled the world, spreading Demeters gift of agriculture.
