15. She is the Goddess of Hell or Ash. Literally, her name means "well said“. She is a minor Goddess and
the wife of Agni. She was originally a nymph, but became immortal after marrying Agni.
Markandeya narrates her story to the Pandavas. She fell in love with the god of fire, Agni, and was
pursuing him. Agni did not notice her. Agni presided over the sacrificial rituals of the Saptarshis. The
god became highly besotted with the wives of the Saptarshis who were so attractive and beautiful, and
kept staring at them.
Finally, Agni could not bear the guilt of longing for wives belonging to someone else and he went to the
forests to perform penances. She followed him and realised his desire. She took the forms of the wives
of the Saptarshis (though she was unable to take the form of Arundhati, wife of Vashishtha) and
approached Agni.
She is the daughter of Daksha and thought to preside over burnt offerings. Her body is said to consist of
the four Vedas and her six limbs are the six Angas of the Vedas. It is said that the gods to whom
offerings are being made through yagna refuse the offerings unless the word ‘_____' is uttered during
the sacrifice.
21. It all began when Theodore Roosevelt was on a bear hunting trip near Onward, Mississippi on
November 14, 1902. Mississippi's Governor Andrew H. Longino had invited him, but unlike other
hunters in the group, Theodore had not located a single bear.
There were several other hunters competing, and most of them had already killed an animal. A suite
of Roosevelt's attendants, led by Holt Collier, cornered, clubbed, and tied an American black bear to
a willow tree after a long exhausting chase with hounds. They called Roosevelt to the site and
suggested that he should shoot it. He refused to shoot the bear himself, deeming this
unsportsmanlike, but instructed that the bear be killed to put it out of its misery and it became the
topic of a political cartoon by Clifford Berryman in The Washington Post on November 16, 1902.
While the initial cartoon of an adult black bear lassoed by a handler and a disgusted Roosevelt had
symbolic overtones, later issues of that and other Berryman cartoons made the bear smaller and cuter.
Morris Michtom saw the drawing of Roosevelt and was inspired to create a ____ ___. He created a
tiny soft ___ cub and put it in the shop window with a sign “_____ ____," after sending a ___ to
Roosevelt and receiving permission to use his name. The toys were an immediate success and
Michtom founded the Ideal Novelty and Toy Co.
