next time you're feeling down just remember that, when he ran into the monkey-god Hanuman on the path to heaven, the mountain of the Pandavas, embued with mantric weapons that placed him in war above the rakshasas and celestials--the mighty Bhima--couldn't budge even Rama's servant's relaxed tail

all our systems, from the market to the traffic grid, are designed to incentivize risk, so why is it that the systems' petty functionaries, the bank tellers and traffic cops, so excessively fear it?

Mayor, City Council spar over paramedic staffing
A strife over paramedic staffing is testing the balance of power at the Albuquerque City Hall, which could reshape how the city responds to emergencies. At the center of the dispute is a City Council rule requiring two paramedics on every rescue unit â a move the Keller administration says hurts emergency response and crosses into the mayorâs authority under Albuquerqueâs strong-mayor charter.

From the opening scene of a Spanish captain wretching from the Colhua priests' human skin capes to Moctezuma's "cooked to the gills" mushroom vision in the temple of Huitzilopochtli, Ălvaro Enrigue's You Dreamed of Empires reads like an awesome spell. Only wish that I had cast it!

sometimes firefighting and poetry really are at odds, like when you inadvertently crumple your copy of Deben Bhattacharya's *Songs of the Bards of Bengal* between the ruck plates you use to prepare for the U.S. DOI's "arduous pack test."
