# Predictions of the end of Google

Various publications and commentators have offered a range of predictions of the end of Google, a search engine established in 1998.

## History

In 2007, a writer for Wired shared a rumor that Wikipedia's co-founder Jimmy Wales had a secret project to end Google. A 2008 article on potential ends of Google noted at that time that Google had 61 percent of traffic while its major competitors Yahoo and Microsoft could catch up. At the 2008 launch of Cuil, various writers described how this search engine would end Google. In 2008, media commentator Jeff Jarvis said that he saw no competitor for Google except a trend of openness. In 2009, a writer for The Daily Beast speculated that Wolfram Alpha would out compete Google as a search engine.
Writers for Forbes have speculated on various situations which could end Google. In 2011, a writer described how Siri would end Google. In 2012, a writer described that nationalization of digital products could end Google. Another writer in 2012 argued that Google opposed the Stop Online Piracy Act by participating in protests against SOPA and PIPA because the company felt an existential threat to its business model in that law's view of digital property rights.

# First transcontinental telephone call

A telephone call, which for marketing purposes is claimed to be the first transcontinental telephone call, occurred on January 25, 1915, a day timed to coincide with the Panama–Pacific International Exposition celebrations. However, the transcontinental telephone line was first completed on June 17, 1914, and successfully first voice tested in July 1914. A 1998 U.S. postage stamp commemorates the completion of the line in 1914.

## Background

The original long-distance telephone network actually started in 1885, in New York City. By 1892 this line reached Chicago. After introducing loading coils in 1899, the long-distance line continued west, and by 1911 it reached Denver, Colorado. The president of AT&T, Theodore Vail, committed the company to a transcontinental line in 1909.
On June 17, 1914, after affixing 4,750 miles (7,640 km) of telephone line, workers raised the final pole at Wendover, Utah, actually on the border between Nevada and Utah state lines. Then, Theodore Vail, the president of AT&T, succeeded in transmitting his voice across the continental U.S. in July 1914.
Six months later, amidst the celebrations surrounding the Panama–Pacific International Exposition, on January 25, 1915, Alexander Graham Bell, in New York City, repeated his famous statement "Mr. Watson, come here. I want you," into the telephone, which was heard by his assistant Thomas Augustus Watson in San Francisco, for a long-distance call of 3,400 miles (5,500 km). Watson replied, "It will take me five days to get there now!" The Alexander Graham Bell call officially initiated AT&T's transcontinental service. The phone call was merely symbolic. Dr. Watson was at 333 Grant Avenue in San Francisco to receive the call, placed by Bell from the Telephone Building at 15 Dey Street in New York City. President Woodrow Wilson and the mayors of both cities were also involved in the call as was Theodore Vail listening in from Jekyll Island, Georgia.
Later, President Woodrow Wilson spoke to an audience in San Francisco from the White House and is quoted as saying "It appeals to the imagination to speak across the continent." However, President Wilson was concerned with the "devaluation of the individual" as AT&T celebrated the achievement of the company rather than distinguishing individual inventors, contributors, and innovators.
# Steven Karidoyanes

Steven Karidoyanes (born November 5, 1957, Boston, Massachusetts to Michael and Tula Karidoyanes) is an American composer, broadcaster and conductor with the Plymouth Philharmonic Orchestra.
He holds a Bachelor of Music degree from Boston University and received training in orchestral conducting at the Canford School of Music in Dorset, England, where he studied with the British conducting coach, George Hurst.

## Career

A member of ASCAP, Karidoyanes is the conductor of the Plymouth Philharmonic Orchestra, a professional orchestra on Boston's historic South Shore, since 1994.
In 2000 he composed Café Neon: Fantasy on Greek Songs and Dances that was performed by the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra. Of the piece, which he dedicated to his parents, Karidoyanes writes:
    "Café Neon owes its form and existence to the 20th century Hungarian composer, Zoltán Kodály. When I first conducted Kodály's Galánta Dances I was immediately taken by the music's passion and color and wished there was a Greek equivalent which would gratify my Hellenic heritage. Café Neon now fills that personal void."
The original title for this piece was Tavérna, the Greek word for tavern, but it was not inspiring enough for Karidoyanes and the title was changed to Café Neon, an Americanized version of the Greek word Kafeníon, coffee bar.
Since its premiere in November 2000, Café Neon has had dozen of performances by orchestras in Massachusetts, Michigan, Wisconsin, California, Indiana, Italy and Greece. A classical music announcer/producer, Mr. Karidoyanes is a frequent fill-in host for Boston's WGBH Radio, and has worked for NPR (National Public Radio) affiliates in North Carolina and Indiana.
On September 20, 2003, Karidoyanes conducted an All-Mozart program with the Prague Symphony Chamber Orchestra in the Czech Republic's Smetana Hall. On March 13, 2004 he conducted the Massachusetts All-State Senior High School Festival Orchestra in Boston's Symphony Hall. Past guest conductor engagements include the Syracuse Symphony, the Rochester Philharmonic and orchestras throughout the New England and Washington, D.C. regions.
His performances have been called "excellent" (The Boston Globe) and "beautifully controlled" (The Washington Post). He has held the posts of Music Director of the Boston College Symphony Orchestra, Associate Conductor of the Winston-Salem Symphony and Greensboro Symphony orchestras in North Carolina, and Assistant Conductor of the Rhode Island Philharmonic.
# Shivoham Shiva Temple

Shivoham Shiva Temple is a Hindu temple, situated on Old Airport Road, Bangalore, India, dedicated to the Hindu deity Shiva. Built in 1995, it features a 65 feet (20 m) statue of Shiva. The temple attracts an estimated 500,000 worshippers and visitors each year, including between 100,000 and 150,000 on the occasion of Maha Shivaratri.

## History

Formerly known as the Shiv Mandir, the temple was consecrated by the Shankaracharya of Sringeri on 26 February 1995. The murti of Shiva was created by the sculptor Kashinath. The temple was renamed as the Shivoham Shiva Temple in 2016, when the focus of the temple shifted to helping people attain moksha by understanding the principles in ancient Vedic texts.

## Features of the temple

The entrance to the temple has a 25-foot (7.6 m) lingam, the biggest in Bengaluru city.
The statue of Shiva depicts the River Ganges flowing out of his hair. The statue is seated in a meditative posture with his damaru and trishula, as mentioned in the Shiva Purana.
Besides the 65-foot statue of Shiva is a 32-foot statue of Ganesha, unveiled on 1 March 2003 by Dada J.P. Vaswani. Worshippers often tie saffron-coloured threads in front of Ganesha, in the hope that the deity would resolve their problems. Several healing stones are placed at the sanctuary facing the idol of Shiva. Devotees touch or embrace these healing stones in the hope of experiencing miracles.

## Activities

The Shiva pilgrimages to Amarnath Temple and Barah Jyotirling Yatra, have been recreated at the temple for those who are unable to travel to the distant location with its adverse climate.
The Amarnath Pancha Dhama Yatra at the temple takes visitors through a man-made cave on a stony, uneven terrain reminiscent of mountainous regions, where the five holy dhams are located: Haridwar, Rishikesh, Badrinath, Kedarnath, and Amarnath. There is also a replica of the ice lingam at Amarnath.
The 12 Jyotirlinga have also been recreated in an artificial cave at the temple, namely Somnath, Mallikarjun, Mahakaleswar, Omkareshwar, Kedarnath, Bhimashankar, Vishwanath Temple, Trimbakeshwar, Baidyanath, Nageshwar, Rameshwaram, and Grishneshwar.

## Maha Shivaratri at the temple

Maha Shivaratri is celebrated as a day of gratitude to Shiva. Maha Shivaratri celebrations at the temple include day and night festivities. Live bhajans and spiritual events, like Shiva Antakshari and jagarana, are organised. A laser-projected light and sound show is organised every year during the Maha Shivaratri.

## Humanitarian work

The temple supports the homeless by sharing its proceeds with A.i.R Humanitarian Homes, which operates in three locations in Bangalore and cater for up to 600 residents overall.

# Epigoni (epic)

Epigoni (Ancient Greek: Ἐπίγονοι, Epigonoi, "Progeny") was an early Greek epic, a sequel to the Thebaid and therefore grouped in the Theban cycle. Some ancient authors seem to have considered it a part of the Thebaid and not a separate poem.

## Contents

According to one source, the epic extended to 7,000 lines of verse. It told the story of the last battle for Thebes by the Epigoni, the children of the heroes who had previously fought for the city. Only the first line is now known:
    Now, Muses, let us begin to sing of younger men ...
Additional references, without verbal quotations, suggest that the myth of the death of Procris and the story of Teiresias's daughter Manto formed part of the Epigoni.
The epic was sometimes ascribed to Homer, but Herodotus doubted this attribution. According to the Scholia on Aristophanes there was an alternative attribution to "Antimachus." This presumably means Antimachus of Teos (8th century BC), and for this reason another verse line attributed without title to Antimachus of Teos is conjecturally thought to belong to the Epigoni. An alternative explanation for the naming of Antimachus here would be that the later epic poet Antimachus of Colophon (4th century BC) had been accused of stealing the traditional Epigoni by incorporating its plot in his literary epic Thebais.
The story of the Epigoni was afterwards told again in the form of a tragedy by Sophocles, Epigoni, and in a now-lost play of the same name by Sophocles's contemporary, Astydamas.
