BUT IT'LL TAKE AN ACT OF
CONGRESS TO DO IT.
A CONSERVATION GROUP WANTS TO
DONATE LAND TO THE JOHN MUIR
NATIONAL HISTORIC SITE IN
MARTINEZ. BUT KPIX 5'S JOHN
RAMOS EXPLAINS: THE GIFT --
COMES WITH A BIG BUREAUCRATIC
CATCH.
John Muir once lived in this
house in Martinez.
The Founding Father of the
National Park System slept in
this room and wrote at this
desk. But it is in the hills
beyond his backyard that he
found inspirationâ
Tom
Leatherman/Superintendent, John
Muir Nat'l Historical Site "And
he reflected on his journeys to
the Sierra, he reflected on
these special places we now call
National Parksâbut it was just
an idea when John Muir was
here."
So, the National Park Service
preserved the land nearby
including Mt Wanda, named for
Muir's eldest daughter and
Strentzel Creek, named after his
father- in-law. And now, a
conservation group wants to add
even more space to this place.
Linus Eukel/Executive Director,
John Muir Land Trust
"This is all about donating an
additional 44 acres to the
original 325 for people to enjoy
in the spirit of John Muir."
But there is one obstacle.
Because the donation is larger
than 10% of the original site,
the law says the Park Service
cannot accept the gift without
literally getting an act of
Congressâand last time they
tried the bill died in the
Senate.
"It'll be donated to the
National Park Service. That
means it's everybody's land. It
has money to take care of it as
wellâbut,
yeahâit'sâweâyea
hâ(laughs)â" Congressman
Mark DeSaulnier and Senator
Kamala Harris announced this
morning they're reintroducing
the bill to acquire the extra
land. They seem confident they
can prevail in the struggle to
accept a no-strings- attached
gift. And one day soon the
public may be able to walk the
same path as John Muir didâand
let their imaginations take
flight as well.
"To commune on property with
nature where Muir was so
inspired is VERY special. And it
keeps us goingâit's an
inspirational kind of
experience." In Martinez, JR,
KPIX-5.

Hey you old women! Stop wailing...stop
Our bro didn't die a premature death
He lived life royally
Instead of sending him off with happiness...
...you're singing a lament song for him
Praise the dead old man and make our friend happy
Why is no one singing? Jackson, start
Me, no...no I only English
Go ahead
'Every night in my dreams I see you...I feel you'
Stop...stop
We don't want a lament song in English
Sing with joy Happy...happily!
Jackson, won't you sing a Tamil song?

I heard there's a difference of opinion between you 2
Don't fight Stay united
Whatever Loganathan brother did when he was alive, I'll do
Let everything be the same as before
I'll deal with everything
Hey uncs! Don't make us laugh
What do you know?
How can you doubt my capabilities?
I'm here only because of my respect for the departed soul
I've worked for him for 15 years, not just a few!
Uncs, not only you
Any scumbag who wants to step into bro's shoes...
...I'll go for his adam's apple
Hey! Who are you addressing so arrogantly? You ungrateful dog!
Hey aunt! Not a good sign Your tongue is wagging
Don't be taken in by your wife's words
I'll do a wholesale chopping!
I'm all-in-all here from now on
Whoever has faith, follow me Let's go
Raja, did you hear his arrogant speech?
It doesn't affect me Raja, you stood up, right?
You are my commander At least you understood me
He seems one hell of a sharpshooter! Brute!!
Uncs, with whatever money left try to survive on porridge
Get lost!
Stop...stop
- What's your name? - Balamurugan
- Yours? - Venkat
- Your brother's name? - Raja
- What's your name? - Sivakumar
Yours?
Uhh...Ganesan, sir But I'm called 'doubt'
Your brother's name? - Nagaraj
Where does he work? - Assistant director of mines
What did...why...why did you hit me?
Wh-at...wh-at wrong did I do?
Why are you stammering now?
He starts stammering, if he gets even slightly flustered
Basically from childhood he has been stammering
I feel sorry for you
But your elder brother didn't feel sorry for me!
Does he think he is a big shot?
I'm earning a living with 4 lorries carrying load to and from the quarry
Just because some jackass complained...
...he seized all the lorries!
I thought he wanted a tip-off and went to meet him with money
He threatened to tell the police
Very dangerous fellow
I have a doubt
If his bro did that to you, why hit him?
His brother is an officer
If I lay my finger on him...
...he'll put me behind bars for attempted murder!
That's why I hit him instead
Warn your brother...go now
Let's go - Where are you off to?
Othakadai
Drop me first in my house = I'll be back Wait here
You must be the only chap in this world to drop a man who hit you!
You've shot up like a palm tree
Instead of bruising him you got beaten up!
He was holding such a huge knife!
What if he had shoved it right into me?
As if my height can prevent a knife being plunged into me?
Why are you scared to death my dear bro-in-law?
Sis-in-law, only a few inches between fear and armor!
Actually when he slapped me I felt the pain but I didn't show it
If I hit him back, he will come with a few men and retaliate
If I hit those few men the next day he will come with an army of men
Can I combat an army?
- I can't - What logic!
My skull will break, shop may get damaged
I'll be living in the court and police station!
I can't pay back the loan borrowed for the shop and we'll be forced to sell
Then we may have to sell this house
Our tenants will ask for their advance back
Instead of renting our house we'll be living in a rented place!
Do we need to be reduced to that state?
Now all problems solved with just 1 solid slap!
He slapped me then Now it doesn't pain
We should always be apprehensive of our future
What are you trying to say?- Maaaa
Your son is saying his moustache isn't muddy though he fell down!
Selvi, chop plenty of green chillies and serve him a spicy omelet
Let him eat it
Why are you teasing my uncle, grandpa?
He'll come home with the world cup one day!
You'll all be zapped then
Baby? Isn't this laying it a little too thick?
You can, dear uncs
You think so?
Thank you for your faith in me and your presence here
Please wait for a week
Business will resume just like it did when Logu bro was alive
I'm here for you Be brave and optimistic
Ravi, you have to ensure this factory runs properly
Stay here, Whatever help, Ramu will oblige
How many times I've told you not to change Pogo channel?
I went yesterday to the bride's house and I'm happy with this alliance
She looks good
I'll get back to you after talking to my son
Listen, my eldest son!
Did your little brother take a look at the girl's photo?
Oh yes! - Does he like her?
Girl is okay but I need to know more about her character
I've spoken to her
She's pretty, well educated and earns a fat salary
Compatible on all counts
Only thing is, her complexion is a little on the higher scale!
If she's so pretty you get married to her
Hold your tongue!
I can't marry a girl just because she's pretty!
It's a lifelong bond of more than 4 decades
We should both like each other
I must talk to her for 1 or 2 days
And only then decide about my marriage
First you'll say you need to talk
And you'll want to date
Then you'll want to sleep together
What's wrong with that?
My father hasn't slept with my mother even once!
Her snores have pushed us to the terrace
If only he had slept with her just once, before they got married...
...will we be 'care of terrace'?!
I wasn't aware of this all these days
We rubbed salt on to our own wounds!
Let me somehow wriggle out of this
Nothing, dear I pulled a fast one
Oh mother! Are you also here?
Truth spilled out in flow of words!
I'll deal with you, when you come home for dinner!
Maaa...don't poison the rice!
Okay, baby
Uncs, ask what's the time - Time...?
Ask me the time - What's the time?
'Hickory dickory dock Both hands don't talk'
'They are shivering in sick bay Why ask me the time anyway?'
This needs to be serviced, sir
There's no display, number...nothing
How long have you been using this same phone?
- 13 years! - Wow! Very good
Very few men even take care of their wives this long!
Dude, see if this can be repaired
It's a mobile phone only No doubt about that!
Raja, I need to send granite worth 2 billion abroad
I came to you instead of Ravi
I'll handle it
Raja, you belong to our community
We'll do anything for you Be brave
He's a moron, Raja His brain doesn't match his body!
No...don't, Ravi
Hello...Raj Shekar? How much?
They've gone 82 feet deep
I'll take the length, breadth and send it to the office
Do that quickly
They've given approval only up to 60 feet
You are digging deeper as you please
My boss will be here in a while
Yes, brother!
You said your office employee Murugan wanted a phone
I'll be in my office in an hour - I'll see you then
New phone Charge for 6 hours and then use it
I'll take leave - I'm leaving, brother
1 minute
I've spoken to the lawyer's daughter
She says she will meet you on Sunday
You meet her and then we can decide if you want to take it forward
Uncs, you can say okay only after I okay her! Okay?
Have you been waiting for long?
No, only an hour - Okay
Hi, sweety What's your name?
Pooja
Excuse me, can I take your order now?
What shall we order?
What is he eating?
Looks yummy
Vanilla is boring We'll have strawberry
You are so pretty
I'm sure many would have proposed to you
27 total, But I loved only 2
My 1st love was in school Dinesh, smart Top ranker
First we were friends Then one day he proposed to me
But in 12th grade we had an ego clash
I decided against him
Final year of college was Karthik
If he starts talking time will just fly
We've roamed a lot But we didn't cross our limit
Then status and caste came in between us
So I spoke to him upfront and avoided the match
- What about you? - Nothing of that sort
Don't pull the wool over my eyes
As if you wouldn't have dated a single girl?
Seriously! - Tell me the truth
Actually, there was a girl in my life also
Uncs...!!
But it wasn't love, baby!
We were close friends, spent a lot of time together
We used to eat together
I used to walk her home everyday
My friends used to tease me and branded us as lovers
I wanted to propose to her But she changed her class
That means?
When we got promoted from 6th to 7th grade...
...she got shifted to another section
You call this a love story and built up a flash back!
I asked for cold coffee Why did you change my order?
No, ma'am You asked for normal coffee
Call the manager I need to talk to him
Order cancelled! Irritating!
Can't reject her because she cancelled an order, baby
That's not the only reason! 4 points - What?
1 - she walked in late Did she apologize?
That's true!
2nd, she asked you what you want and said...
...'shall we try cold coffee' and ordered it herself
I asked for vanilla, no? She ordered strawberry for me
4th point?
In both the break-up cases she was the 1 who ditched them
How are you so sure she won't cut you also off after marriage?
Hey! You thought upto divorce in the 1st meeting, huh?
Soooper, baby!
But my doubt is, how did you find all this out?
Only a girl will know another girl's heart!
Wonder what's so great about a girl's heart!
In our business the chap lagging behind has never spared the one who went ahead
Life is priority
Unnecessarily both of you don't fight and create a new rival in between
I don't want the 2 of you fighting like this, why don't you share?
As if I want to die fighting?!
Ask him to accept first And then I'll think about it
Our livelihood is by itself wrong
At least perform the wrong in the right manner!
You handle shopping complex export and real estate
Raja can take care of granites, transport and building flyovers
Do you know the turnover in granites per month?
It is 15 years since you retired You have no idea
Let's not do this tear and share
In 2 days time, either Raja or I will be the sole survivor
Ravi, all those who wanted to become bigwigs in the shortcut way...
...disappeared in a very short span
This doesn't feel right to me, Let me leave
To kill Ravi in an 'encounter'...
...you want me to transfer the commissioner!
It can be done, but it's not a cake walk like you think
Even if it is my department...
...decision rests only with the chief minister
If you do this favor for me I'll return the favor manifold!
What kind of favor, Raja?
In the uprising you schemed 4 years ago...
...you're under the wrong impression the secretary's family died
Then?
His sons Ramesh and Pandi are alive
Are you serious?
They are waiting to kill you
You don't believe me?
Call your co-bro-in-law in Coonoor now
Yes, tell me
Are Ramesh and Pandi alive?
Yes, that's a-
Are Ramesh and Pandi alive?
Yes, they are, but-
Why didn't you tell me this beforehand?
You've just now become a minister
Why burden you with all this...?
Give some stupid reason! Pain in the wrong place!
Chill, bro, I know where they are
If you can comply with my wishes...?
See you, bro
Off to work? - Yes, aunty
Your kid has left for school - She leaves by 7:00 a.m
It's a month since you moved in I am yet to meet your child
I'll bring her this evening
I'll come home only at 10:00 p.m
- See you, aunty - Is your mother in?
Rent? 1 minute
Maaa...?Upstairs aunty is here to pay the rent
Please go in and sit
'Doubt'...! What's up?
Green shirt, coolers, new shoes! - Ma, bless me
Have you been trapped by some girl?
Who?
You know a girl used to keep talking...
...about life insurance policy to me
Over the phone she's now set as my life partner!
Did you meet her? - No, dude
Have you at least seen her photo?
I avoided it, to preserve the surprise element
I intend meeting her face to face today
What if she is 'quite contrary' to what you imagine her to be?!
Bomb of the year!
Why...why? Negative nitwit Son of the green-eyed monster!
Dude, be practical
What if she is a dumbo and you're forced to marry her?!
What will you do then?
Why are you stirring the duck pond?!
I'm cautioning you not to drown in the deep end of the duck pond
What do you want me to do now?
We'll go and take a look You remain incognito
Let's take a call after we see her
What is her dress code?
White dress and brown handbag
Find out if he has come
He must be on the way Why disturb him now?
What concern even before you express your love?
That's her! sn't she sooooper?
What do we do now?
Ask the one who stirred up the duck pond!
What to do?
Hey! You wasted wastrel!
You are scrutinizing as if you intend pouncing on her!
I am thinking Come around
He's calling me - Talk
Are you here? - Yes...what about you?
I'm inside But a small change
I'm not wearing a green shirt My mother washed it by mistake
I'm in a white shirt with blue stripes
But same pant
- No problem - Thanks
Where are you now? - Kamali...hi, How are you?
It's me Ganesh- Oh!!
She's my friend, Ramya - They are my friends
I'm glad we met at the temple for the 1st-
My name is Sivakumar
- I'm already committed - Okay, right
I never thought you'd be so fair
Neither did I think you'd be so dark!
How long have you been dating each other?- 7 years
- Which number is he? - Hello! First love
First time I've met a girl who is in love with the same chap for 7 years!
I'm stunned! - I shouldn't have trusted you
- Listen to me - Fraud!- Let's go
What happened?
Believing love should be true I told her about changing my shirt
Who asked him to blabber all this?
All thanks to you Kamali...Kamali 1 minute
Sorry, like an idiot I did what my friend advised
So if I was some dumbass you'd have ditched me, no?
- But I accepted, no? - No reasons, please
You and I aren't friends anymore
Girish, where are you going?
Girish is stepping out of the line, miss
"Hey! You, my friend, Marudhu Divulge which village she belongs to"
"Moves like a temple chariot, watch Down Melamasi street, what a catch"
"Hey! You, my bro, Marudhu Tell which town she belongs to"
"Sways like a temple chariot, see Down Melamasi street, divinely"
"For a girl, perfect 24-carat this heart has fallen flat"
"For her pearl-like teeth gleaming full life forsaken and floundering"
"Hey! You, my bro, Marudhu Tell which town she belongs to"
"Swings like a temple chariot, watch Down Melamasi street, holds no patch"
"Age of innocence, sanctity of mind Though sari-clad, a naughty child"
"My life languishes like your waist diminishes"
"My love magnifies like money multiplies"
"She glides like a cloud petite Is she Goddess Meenakshi's parakeet?"
"She looks like lightning's baby My mother's daughter-in-law to be?!"
"Hey! You, partner, Marudhu Cite which city she belongs to"
"Moves like a temple chariot, follow Down Melamasi street with a halo"
"Glory to Goddess Mahalakshmi Giver of gifts, riches in plenty"
"Fair and merciful angel inspects Temptation flies, body forgets"
"Mothering instincts at 18 gather You're Mother Teresa's granddaughter"
"Desire that flames seeing any girl dear, with you didn't flare or unfurl"
"Divine idol clad in a wisp of fabric I didn't want to be cupid-centric"
"Hey! You, my friend, Marudhu Divulge which village she belongs to"
"Sails like a temple chariot, see Down Melamasi street, sublimely"
"For a girl, perfect 24-carat this heart has fallen flat"
"For her pearl-like teeth gleaming full life forsaken and fluttering"
"Some stranger, random lassie strides ahead kidnapping me"
"Ignited her eyes so explosive she burns me alive effusive"
What happened, dude?
I tried my best to convince her
I didn't succeed All because of this fatso
Hey 'doubt' You did me a huge favor!- What?
Let's catch up with a 'cutting'!
Please
My mind went drooling to a different 'cutting'!
I wouldn't have stepped in if I had known it was hair cutting!
Don't smile
Excuse me, missI...I am...actually My name is S...Si
1-2-3-4-5-6-cool...cool
Si...Sivakumar
You don't know me But I know you
Can I talk to you for 2 minutes?
Didn't I tell you a 'bad boy' followed you in the temple?
That's him
Good chubby boy!
I saw you at the temple, that's right
But I am not a bad boy
I want to talk to you for 2 minutes, miss
I didn't expect you to agree so easily!
Whoever calls will you come readily?!
Words spilled out though I wanted to put...
...a speed-breaker on my tongue!
My father has retired from the electricity board
My brother is an AD My mother-
Hello, what's all this for? Come straight to the matter
Okay, straight to the point
What I want to say is-
See, how cute these kids are
Why shouldn't we have such cute kids?
I mean after marriage
Fine...but I must ask my husband!
Hus...husband?- Toe-ring? - Hey...hey!
Wedding chain?
You don't show any sign of being married!
Even you don't have any evidence of being married!
Don't mock at me - Look who's talking!
I was happy teaching my students
And you call me for a silly chitchat...!
I'm serious about marrying you
I've never broached this subject with anyone!
Oh really! Sorry, I'm not interested
..can you drop me at my place...please?
Who gets such a chance to drop even before a pick-up!
Shall I pick you up in the spot where I drop you today?
I'll take an auto
No...no, I'll just drop you Please sit
Stop here
That's okay The 1st time I saw you...
...I thought of our wedding night!
So...so...sorry I meant, wedding
Please understand My words might be wrong-
Ooops, I brought you to my area by mistake!
I'll drop you at your place
But you gave me directions!
Hello! It's a month since we moved in as your tenant!
I spoke to you and asked you to drop me...
...knowing you are my house owner's son
Within your area, you are the best behaved boy!
You step out and paint the town red, huh?
I'll enlighten your mother!
Let's keep it between ourselves Don't tell her
Hey! Key is on the ledge I'll buy vegetables and be back
Aunty, who is this girl?
Baby...she has just got back from school!
Baby back from school? I don't understand
She finished her course in teacher's training
And has joined the school here
When you kept calling her 'baby' I thought she was a little kid
I never thought she'd be your 'baby'!
Actually, you look like a kid too!
You butter me up too much - Really, aunty
How do you know? - As if I'm lying!
What, dude? 5000? Too low
That's no problem
Malar, call for you - Coming, ma
You tell me, dude You could have called me last night
I got a call from this number - I didn't make any call
How will I know your number then?
I'm calling you only because you called me!
- Is that so? - It's okay
- Give the phone to your husband - I'm not yet married
Your father? - He is
Has he gone up? - Hello! My father works abroad
That's okay Call any boy who is at home
Basically I don't talk to girls
What do you want, sir? - You didn't call me for sure?
No- It's okay, cool No problem, bye
She believed me Let me call again
I'm basically a good boy This is common for me
Hello...who?
'Missed' call party, miss Miss...?! - Tell me
I got a message from this number
Message? Now? - Of course
I didn't send anything
Are you playing the fool with me?
Did any of my friends ask you to pull my legs?!
You are talking to me without even knowing who I am!
Hello...I know who you are - You know?
House owner's son Siva, right?
- He...hu! - What, sir
Is your signal weak? Si...si...si!!!Signal...got cut
What bad timing! Is she just guessing?
Let's maintain our story
Dude, that 5000 bucks if you can give it to me...
- Weak signal - Hello mister!
I'll come in and talk Hello...hello...!?
- Wake up - Come
It feels like we're entering a government hospital ward
ready?
- Sleep...sleep - That's later
What's the book for? - Morning, bro
Boy from the next street! Get up!Get up!!
What are you doing here? - I came- - I'll hit you!
Why are you sitting happily on our terrace?
No, bro...I've been chatting up Kavitha
That's why I came
Look at this!
Did you think we'd forgive you if you are so frank? Out!
You're not letting your own neighbor come here
But the boy from another area is busy doing his job there
That side Go...go...go
- Where? - In that corner
Oh my! They're even cooking and living as a family!
- You take care of that - I told you so!
- Just because of no current - They've turned this into a park
And where's our babe...?
Hey...hey! Who are you?
Don't you recognize me?
I'll punch you! I know you! Who's he?
Bro!
What is your bro busy doing inside those shrubs?
If you call him your bro, I'll split your mouth into two!
Show me your face Where are you from?
- Goripalayam - 13 kms away?
- When did you come? - It's been half an hour
It's only been 5 minutes since the current went off
Hand...take your hands off her Get up!
I'll set the cops on you
To upload you must press this Then you have to share-
Go to sleep, dear - No, mother
- Why? - You sleep
120 papers to correct and it's the first month
You can wake up and do all that
I can't finish all that in the morning
It doesn't matter how long it takes, I'll wait for the current
Correct the papers and then sleep
You never listen Do what you want
Aha! She's touched my heart to the core
Hello? Yes, it's me, dude
No, just a small obligation
There is no current in our area alone
Can you use your power and get power for us quickly?
That's also simple Just like Facebook
Wha...what?
They are 2 different departments? Then for what joy...
...do you flatter yourself as a police commissioner?
I don't know all that Just ensure we get current soon
You asked me to cut it
Now why make me out to be the 'commissioner'?!
- If you ask me to switch it on, I will - Thinks he is a bigwig police man
Why such emotion, dude? - It's not that...aha...electricity!
Mother! Current is back Get up and go sleep inside
500 rupees has a brilliance of its own!
Hello? Yeah, tell me, Pangu 1 second
The current's back Get up and go in
- I'll kill you! - So how are you?
I'm good
Apparently the new commissioner in the city is a friend of yours?
- Who told you that? - I saw it on Facebook
Fa-facebook?
Son, I was the one who posted it on Facebook
I'll call you later
If our boy and the commissioner have a link we must be proud, no?
Your granddaughter is busy dating the boy next door
And you're poking your nose into our affairs, updating Facebook!
You wanted to share it in Facebook and tear him to pieces?
- Are you a Simbu fan? - Get lost
- Good Morning, sir - Come, sit down
- This is Sivappu Raja - Good day, sir
We transferred you to this city only for his sake
- Be in his good books - Definitely, sir
Sivappu, you transferred the commissioner, that's fine
But you tried to kill me using him...right? You found out?
I told you we'd do it together
But you acted too big for your boots
Because the commissioner and minister are in your clutches...
...you're talking with such temerity
I'll kill you in just 3 more days
What? 3 days? Let's see if you last the night
Sivappu, turn around for a second
Good day, sir
I need to talk to you for 2 minutes
How dare you! Who do you think you are?
You kill my chap and come here to compromise with me?
Your phone is ringing
Tell me, co-bro-in-law
Ramesh and Pandi have been killed by a gang in Mettupalayam
- Really? - Yes
- Who did it? - I did it, sir
I killed them for you, sir
Let me come straight to the point
You gave 20% commission when Logu bro was around
Now, you'll be splitting your profits in half 50%
If you ask for 50% in profits without even investing...
...how can we part with it?
Only those who give 50% can do business in Madurai
From now on, no registration above Rs 100000 can happen...
...without my knowledge
I'll see you, bro
You are out of the house at 7:00 sharp, what's the matter?
Love matter
Love? Who is the girl?
It hasn't set yet I'll let you know
Brother! Tell me who and I'll set it for you
Brother, you've decided to start match-fixing also?!- Yes
Okay The teacher upstairs - What? Up
Dai! Why do you need to go to so much trouble?
Won't she come as soon as you call?
There she is! Try your luck!!
Let's see if your magic works
Good morning, miss
Sir, you can only speak if you put coins inside
I know!
What are you saying?
Yes, mother He's disturbing me
I have my exams on top of it all
Why didn't you tell me this before?
Where are you taking me? - Come in, aunty
Upstairs aunty is here
Why is she here? - Come...come
- Sit down - Oh no!
Hope she hasn't squealed!
Why are you standing? Please sit down
Is your husband not at home?
He's gone out Tell me...what is it?
It's nothing
It's just that a boy is troubling my daughter at the bus stop
I don't know whom to tell- - Thank God!
Mu husband is not in town So if your boys just go ask the-
Uh...aunty? In the bus stand?
I'll deal with this, ma You go inside
Bro-in-law...you?
Sister-in-law, I won't get into a scuffle like last time
I'll ask the boys to deal with it
Dai-Maaa! I can smell something burning in the kitchen, please go!
- No need - Go, maaa! Please
Baby...did you tell the boy who's troubling you...
...you live with me? - Whaaaat?
As in...I'm house owner and she is my tenant!
No, I didn't
That's the reason for this problem
Aunty, ask her to point out the troublemaker to me
I'll take care of the rest
Malar, take 'bro' and show him who the boy-
Why, aunty? It was all smooth sailing!
What's wrong, bro?
No...you're referring to me as her 'big bro'!
And you're calling me 'little bro' Relationship seems mixed up
Very true, take 'uncle' along and show him the boy
'Bro' was better Me and my big mouth!
- What, bro? - Nothing, aunty
Baby...wait 'Uncle' will get ready
Baby, wait here I'll bring your bag
Aunty, sit down
Tell me, dude - Partner...small problem
There! That checked shirt Him? - Okay You go ahead
When I call you're not picking up
When I text you, you don't reply
You know how much this uncle loves you
- Has the bus gone? - It hasn't come yet
Hello! All that I spoke was for your ears!
I'm talking to you! Why don't you look at me?
Dude...dude...dude - What?
No, just that if you go in front...
...you look cool and I look like a fool to my girl
If you don't mind, can I walk ahead?
- Do I have a choice? - Thank you
Why this build up?
Don't feel bad I look dark Even I've started using-
Hello? Brother? Is your name Rajesh? - No...Balu
Your name is fine But your character isn't
Character is most important for a human being
Animals have brawn and beauty but no brain
Sweets look swell to eat but give hell to your teeth
Teacher? Come this side
If we don't concentrate when we are driving...
...we'll cause an accident and other people will drive us mad
You'll faint if you see the way he's fighting
Aren't you going? - I...I...shouldn't go
I can't fight tactfully I'll hit too hard sometimes
2-3 deaths will be confirmed
Then they'll call you to the police station
Is that necessary?
Brother...you sold your story to me!
Every girl you see can't end up your wife
It's not right You got it?
You don't know about my character
She left long ago - Where did she go?
He's made her sit in the tailor's shop
Why didn't you tell me this earlier?
How manydialogs I wasted?! Simple, bro
Stop tailing Malar teacher She doesn't like it
All this is about the teacher, huh?
You don't tell me Let her
Then if she tells you she doesn't like you...
...will you leave her alone?
How? So what? I'm still in love with her
You shouldn't torture someone who doesn't like you!
Partner...move, let me get some air to breathe!
If I talk like this, you won't learn
Look at this! Partner is ready to fist-fight
This is a fist that watches the fun
That is the hand that knocks you down
You keep playing, dude Brother, one tea
Dude! Get up and go
Forget it, sir These kids like to show off
Dude...!Hit him, dude!
Why did you tear your shirt?
Which shirt won't tear in the middle of a fight, dude?
Dai, show me your hand
Oh no...!
'This year he bags the award for the best actor'
Baby, the fight is over...come out
Baby...it might take 4 months for boys to walk
7 months to be on their mark
And 9 months to run the marathon
Don't laugh at my words rhyming I've hit him with the right timing
That chap won't torture you anymore
Tell your 'uncle' anything from now on
- I'll take care - Thanks
Will you also stop following me and torturing me...please?
Sooooper!

Stop the car
What happened?
He fell down right from top His skull is broken
Simmakal Ravi's quarry
Permission has been granted only for 60 ft
But they are digging much deeper Every 2nd day 4 men are dying
Aiyo...who will take care of us now?
They bribe and hush it up, sir
I ask this question to test how good a person is- What?
Answer my question frankly
Midnight, 3 people are standing in a bus stop
A beautiful girl, a friend who saved your life
And a grandma in need of medical aid
You can only take 1 person on your bike
Whom will you choose?
A beautiful girl, a forever friend
And a grandma in need of medical aid
I'll give my bike to my friend
And ask him to admit the grandma in a hospital
I'll spend the whole night in the bus stop with my life partner
Wow! How's that?! - Basically I'm brilliant, dear
Don't you think you're going overboard?!
Isn't that Sethu? - I don't know what to do
Yes, it is - Who is that girl?
Don't cry
Amudha
Sethu loved her but her folks forced her to marry someone else
Ammu, call if there is any hassle at night
Don't be scared - How are you, Amudha?
I'm fine, Siva Uh...hu...see you
What's the problem?
'Barani is my neighbor' 'His mom was bedridden'
'So I visited her often since she needed to be injected'
Don't worry You'll be fine
I never knew then he was in love with me'
I got married and his mother passed away'
Hi Barani How can I help you? - One day he came to my hospital'
I don't know if this is the right time to tell you
But you got married
Amudha, just come away with me I want you
Do you know what will happen if my husband gets to hear this?
'He came often and pestered me at work - I'll deal with it
'He behaved badly'
I couldn't bear his torture I'm really being patient,Get out
Amudha, don't get scared Don't hurt my husband Listen to me!
Either you should step out of this house
Or I should step in here
I'll give you 3 days time to make up your mind
I have no idea how to tackle this
If something like that happens you can see me as a corpse!
Only if we make him limbless he will know another man's pain!
Hey! Don't ta...talk like an id...id...idiot!
He'll finish you His job is to kill people
Let's not get involved - Don't blabber like a fool
If I was her husband and she had such a problem...
...would I have ditched her?
Numbskull! I loved her for 7 years!
She says she will die
You want me to feel good seeing her dead?!
You say he knows you
If you hit him, the problewon't be solved just like that
Simmakal Ravi will come after you Try to understand
Only if he knows who hit him!
Look here, work hazard is such you win some you lose some
Don't magnify all this...go
- Nandhu...? - No, bro
Haven't I complied whenever you asked me to do something?
Did I object to any tender in whosoever name you specified?
Daily 4-5 men are dying
Please don't compel me in this matter alone
We have 150 buses plying
Daily some people die in some accident or the other
What can we do about that? Can we stop driving?
- Rules will exis - I understand...please
Stumbling block!
For his sake, give Rs 200000...
...as compensation to the dead man's family
Bro, I'm discussing life and you're distributing money
Think of the dead man's family
His wife and childre-
I also have a family Can I thrive on their grief?
I won't take this up any further and complain
But shut down your quarry please
What audacity! - Don't...no...don't hit
Whom are you trying to oppose? - Ask him to get out
Come...don't aggravate this issue, step out, sir
Go...leave, sir
Yes, ma
Your wife is pregnant Doctor just confirmed it
Do I feel glad we'll soon get a new member to our family?
Or sad that my son got beaten up by some scum bag?
I don't know
But it's times like this, we lose focus without our knowledge
You shouldn't miss the 'you' in yourself
Think deeply
Do what you think is right
'NK Granites in Melur, Madurai district...'
'...has allegedly quarried granite disregarding govt. regulations'
'Based on reports from Mr Nagaraj Assistant director, mines and minerals'
'...the office has been sealed this evening'
'Mr Nagaraj further added...'
many lives have been lost due to callous disregard of safety measures'
This officer has to die tomorrow
This is just been telecast as news
It's too early for us to- - He has to die!
See you tomorrow
He is here
Dai! Run...run for your life - Run this way
Dude, let me run ahead - This side...aiyaiyo!
Come fast, Quick
Bro...?- Lie down
Who did this?
Amudha has shifted to Trichy with her family
You better be in hiding for a while too, just to be safe
Paramakudi Ramanathapuram - Get in - Take care
See you
Find out who Sethu is - Okay, boss
Bus is crossing Nathai road I'll call when job's done
Our chap is now carrying out your order
Call that officer - Hello, sir?
- Hello, officer? - Yes, sir
Do you know why I called you now? You're just about to die
You should know the reason, right?
What a deafening sound!
Check if he's still alive!
What happened? - Your brother has left us
Brother...!
Hello! We are still at the hospital I'll call you back
Sir, medical officer wants to meet you- Come
Watch your step
Sign here
This report says your son was driving under alcoholic influence
- Does he drink? - What are you saying?
Sir, my son does not drink
Tell me which son drinks with his father's knowledge?
Just sign, will you?
I know my son very well He does not drink, sir
Don't argue, sign and take your son's postmortem report, Here
Das, something is not right
Didn't they shut down the quarry yesterday?
Today my son is dead
My son's boss Ravi is up to some mischief
Another postmortem should be done
You are right We did it - What will you do?
What your son did was unpardonable
Do you know the loss he incurred for us?
Just shut up, sign the papers and get lost, or else...!!!
Hey! You killed my son, didn't you?
I will not sign No, I won't
I'll take you to court
Whaaat? You'll go to court, huh? Where should he sign?
Here
Okay, this is your signature
Now it will take you 10 years to prove legally this is forged
After that you can file a case for your son
Get lost
You won't ever prosper in life
after killing my son I will not leave you
'She already has a bad tooth' - 'Run...run!'
Why only 2 measures of rice? Take another half
We are only 4 of us now This will be enough, ma
Drink some water
Who is Nagaraj here? - What's the matter?
Registered post for him
Give it to me
This is from the Govt office I can give it only to him
He is my son He passed away 4 days ago
Aiyo! Sorry, sir You can sign
Buses, travels, quarry are run under a false name
If I publish this as news...
...he'll just turn the case against us and give us hell
Since his death is recorded officially as an accident...
...we can't print this news
Forget it, sir
Forget it, huh? How can I?
Only when I'm a corpse It's a 35 year bond
It's like just yesterday he was handed to me as a newborn baby
That joyous moment is still within my heart, sir
I feel like killing him My rage is so intense
But I don't have the physical strength
Sir, let not what happened to my son happen to others
Do something about this please, I beg you
Hey! What are you staring at?
I intend killing Ravi
My brother's death was not an accident
Murder!
- They killed him? - Murder?
How do you know?
'I won't spare any of you' 'I'll take you to court'
'Aiyo! You killed my son' 'I won't leave them'
'They killed my son'
Don't decide in anger, dude
You advised Sethu
You know they are heartless brutes
Don't jump in and lose your grip on life like Sethu
He's stuck in some strange town like an orphan
Why buy trouble? No dude, don't do it
If I ha...hadn't known my...br...bro was killed...
...it wouldn't have mattered
But after knowing the truth how ca...can I si...sit quiet?
My family is shattered
What wrong did that unborn ba...ba...baby do to deserve this?
That child will be fatherless lifelong
I will kill him - Don't yell
Go ahead Kill him But kill him incognito
It doesn't matter how long it takes But don't leave him

All out going calls from this phone will be received in this phone also
If you somehow sell this to Nandakumar...
...we can listen in to all his conversations
Hey! Who are you? - Bro, Nandakumar asked for a phone
Greetings, brother - Did you ask for a phone?
Of course not- He didn't ask I just brought it
Brother! You are my God The bravest among the brave
Bless me, please - Who is this chap?
After being blessed by Goddess Meenakshi...
...I need yours now, bro
I've opened a small scale mobile shop at Pondy Bazar
In Madurai district, any business won't take off without your blessing
This is just a small gift from a loving 'brother'
You must accept it All are imported sets
Please gift them to your boys
I seek your support always Brother- Okay, go now
Whether prepaid, post-paid or top up, I'll do the needful
Let me take leave now Aiyaiyo! Nandhu bro?
In my joy of seeing God I forgot the priest!!
An expensive mobile specially for you, bro
Place it in your pocket And me in your mind
Okay? Shall I go?
I'll top it up just in case
I'll take leave, bro
Here take this - Did you give it to him?
All done By now he'll be using it
Tell me, sir
Minister will be travelling to Coonoor for his father's death anniversary
It'll be good if Ravi sir can accompany him
Okay, sir When is this? - Monday after next
Okay, I'll inform him

What are you doing here at this unearthly hour, my friend?
I just thought of something - What?
I've heard there are people who kill for money
Do you know anyone?
Is this the time you choose to ask me this question?!
Do you know...or not?
You need to spend a lot of money
That's alright
Jambulingam whom we'll meet now is a big shot in Tuticorin
As influential as Ravi in Madurai
Come
In which room is Mr Jambulingam staying?
They want to see you - Greetings, brother
Sit down
This is what happened
Won't you explain clearly about me
before you bring them over here? - Take them away
Come with me, please
What Simmakal Ravi can do, is child's play to him
If it had been anyone else he'd have obliged immediately
But since both belong to the same profession...
...he won't step into his space
Look, who is here
This is your father's younger brother!
His nose is carbon copy of my brother's!
Such strong grip!
Look! Our baby has come home
'Central prison Palayamkottai'
I'll take care of the legal aspect
Will you do it or not? - I'll do it for you
These are the documents of the house I own
This is the house
Sister, they've come to meet uncle
He's inside You can go in
Kali, Rs 2500000 is in this box 500000 less than what we agreed
I'll pay up as soon as the deed is done
I have the full amount here- How?
I got my son's settlement after his demise, I added that
Oh! Okay, give it
I enquired about the party
He's the biggest bigshot in Madurai it seems
If I do this, I'll be traced
So I'll get it done through new kids
But I'll do it prim and proper
Kali, it's better if you handle it
You've entrusted me, right I'll fulfill your need
Phone's ringing sentimentally in your favor, go ahead, talk
Hello, it's me- Have you reached the wedding place?
That's where I am now
Our youngest son and our tenant Malar are in love it seems
- Selvi told me - All for the good
I'll be back soon
Not buying spinach? - Making spicy dryfish curry
Oh! Then I'll send you a cup Let me taste your curry
- Tell me what - Look up a little
What...tell me quickly
Go inside and you'll find out
Easier to fix hall if we fix the wedding date soon
This is our son-in-law to be
Good evening, son - I'm Malar's father
I've seen your photo Let me freshen up Ma...!
Your plus is your color, son - What's the hurry now?
Auspicious happening is believed to be good after a tragic event
We know what to do
They have no clue about my predicament!
Talk to your father alone later
How can I tell him...
...let me kill a man and then get married?!
Malar will be upset if I turn this down now
I'm in a dilemma
Coonoor Trichy temple festival
Golden regal theater
In this 1 year that I've followed him...
...these are the only 3 places I can kill him
Temple festival will have excess security, that's too risky
In the theater, he'll go to the loo only 10 minutes after interval...
...and his men will be hanging around in the corridor
Coonoor, where the minister visits annually for...
...his father's death anniversary Ravi accompanies him for security
At 6:00 a.m Ravi's men will go with the minister to the graveyard
That seems the ideal time when Ravi joins them later
Hey! Move your vehicle Get off the way, I say!
Who is that?
Bharani, on our way to the church we've been cornered by some thugs
Who sent you? Tell me Come on, spill the beans
I will I will tell you
A man from Chinnapatti He paid us to kill you
Hey! Go away Don't crowd around
We never met the man who paid us to kill you
Muthu, find out who the khaki shirt chap is
How many of you? - Who?
- No one else - Tell me the truth
Open your mouth
What are you feeding him?
He doesn't eat properly Makes a mess, that's why
Enough I don't want- Latha, you eat
Uncle, I think there's trouble
The boys' mobiles are all switched off
Call Raja, ask him to bring the car Send the women home
Uncle, some new chaps have surrounded us
The chap on the right wearing a white shirt, huh?
Sitting along with his family
With a sandalwood paste dot on his forehead
Bro, white shirt
Are you Kalidas from Chinnapatti?
Who are you? - Madurai Simmakal Ravi
Dad, uncle is calling you - I'll talk to him later
Who is that old man? - I don't know him
I was following the lawyer's instructions
Where does the lawyer live?
How many times will I keep calling you?
Why is your mobile switched off?
Boys who went to Coonoor to kill Ravi got caught
That's why I escaped to my home town
I will myself call you later, okay?
What about the money we gave him...?
You can talk later
Come quickly, dear Priest is waiting
Greetings - Can I read it out?
In the Tami year Vijaya, 15th day of Tamil month Aani, Wednesday...
...we announce the wedding of
...Malarvizhi, daughter of Chidambaram and Sivakami
...and Sivakumar, youngest son of Kalyanasundaram and Amudha
Hello?- Is that you, Mr Kalidas?
Yes, who is this?
I came to see you about Ravi along with the advocate, remember?
Do you know how long I've been hunting for you?
And your lawyer friend has switched off his mobile
You do know the Coonoor attempt failed, don't you?
Yes I do, but can't you once again...?
What?! Once again? Today my bail ends
Tomorrow after I surrender in court I have no idea when I'll be out again
You just come and collect your money
Where and how...do I collect the money?
Come and collect it at 8:00 p.m in Mattuthavani bus stand
Tell me, Bharani
Remember those chaps who tried to kill our boss?
Tonight he'll be in the bus stand at Mattuthavani to collect his money
We'll catch him for sure
What is it?
Remember I told you a gang tried to kill Ravi at Coonoor?
They are planning to kill the guy who paid them to do the job
But he's unaware of it
Stop here
I must save him somehow - How can we?
Isn't he also someone like me?
I fee- - Go, see who it is
Malar? - I want to speak to Siva
Please leave us alone for a bit
We have important work
I too have something important to discuss
- Work - Go, please
- You don't under- - Just go
- We have to deliver- - Get lost, man
I'm like an elder brother to you!
We are engaged That's why you get at least this respect
- Once the marriage is- - Enough! I got the message
That lass just latched me out! Let her have her fun!
Why did you ask him to go out?
Then what, dear? You never spend time with me
It was okay till we got engaged
But now it's like being legally half-wife
Half wife? What do you want now?
Nothing
For students not to be terrified of their annual exams...
we rehearse with monthly, quarterly and half yearly tests
Doesn't the same hold good for our marriage?
Before marriage what?
When I think of our wedding night
No! When I think of our marriage-
As...li...slight fe...fear

Don't spoil my mood

Sir? I'm here
Sir? I'm here
My father?! Why is he here?
That's him Hey come on, guys
Stop
Are you trying to escape from us? Hit him
Grab him
Look...there he is
Father! Father...father
Look there, Come this way
You wait here
Nothing to worry
His blood pressure shot up That's why he has fainted
He'll be okay in half an hour Are you related to him?
He is - I have no clue who he is, sir
He was lying unconscious in the market place
I found this mobile in his pocket Please inform his family
- Call his family - Okay, doctor
Why did you lie?
Let no one know I admitted my father in the hospital
Why is your father sleuthing around at his age?
We won't be able to understand his pain
Look at the way he hired men to kill Ravi, I like him even more now
You were unconscious in the market it seems
Some workers brought you here
Nothing to worry
He has to be under observation for 24 hours, tomorrow he'll be discharged
- Siva...? - He'll be here now
Who is it? - Some random number
It's me They killed Kalidas
Did you watch the news on TV?
I'll come out and talk
It's God's grace I'm alive today
What are you saying?
I was in that same spot They could've easily killed me
Did anyone see you there? - Yes, one of those thugs saw me
Who asked you to go there?
What else can I do?
Sit at home and eat to my heart's content?
If I'm at home, I'm hassled by my eldest son's memories
I've lost all my hard earned money
Is there a way to punish my son's killer?
We thought there was only 1 old man
Now another guy comes to his rescue
So they both planned and met at the bus stop
By this time they will be hunting for my father and his accomplice
Why did the rescuer mask his face?
Either he didn't want us to identify him
Or he must be known to us
Before he gets to my father, I must finish him off
If he has paid 3 million to hire a killer he isn't part of a regular gang
Public...just 1 among the ordinary citizens
Someone who wants me dead
Get me a list of general public we killed
For Lord Siva's festival, Ravi visits this temple in mid March
We'll close his chapter there
Ravi circumambulates the sanctum like this
We'll haul him up through this underground passage
This tunnel ends 5 km away at Nagamala
If we go through this tunnel we reach Nagamala in half hour
But it takes 90 minutes by road
When we bring him this way wait here with the car ahead of time
Okay, dude
Apart from gangsters we've hauled 11 people from public
Among them are Tasildar, Govt. doctor Thanikachalam
Ramaiya complex owner's son
Auto driver Venkatesh, your friend Ramesh, auditor Shanmugam, VRT hotel Ashok
Meenambika college Chellamuthu Fruit shop Ganeshan
We have dealt directly with all these people
Accident victims are granite officer Nagarajan
MLA Muthu and Sub Inspector Murugan That's all
Someone from this list is the culprit
I don't care how you deal with this
I want all the men-folk of these families here
Minister's secretary is on the line
He wants to know if you'll meet him tonight
What's it about? - He did not specify
We'll meet
Boss has agreed
Ask him to come as usual to Golden Regal theatre...
...for the late night show Minister will also be there
Okay, sir
Enquiry at 10:00 a.m tomorrow Be at the commissioner's office
Commissioner's office? - Why? - I don't know
We got a call from the commissioner himself
Be there tomorrow morning
You have another son, right? Bring him also
Let's go
Who must we inform next?
Auto driver in Brindavan colony
Tell me, sir
As per your list, I have informed all the families
By 10 tomorrow they will be at the Commissioner's office
Okay, I'll inform the boss
He has informed everyone in our list
Everyone will be at the commissioner's office
Did you call me?
- Where are you now? - At the theatre
Didn't I warn you? Are you off your head?
Why take risks at the theatre after our fool proof plan in the temple?
Who knows what will happen tomorrow
Every minute I delay I'm scared they'll kill my father- So?
I'll try, if not it will be at the temple
Look here, as long as they don't know your face...
...you can follow them freely - I'll call you later
Who is in there?
- Who is it? - Answer me!
Hey! Open the door Will you open or not?
What are you doing?
I'm in the loo! - Go
I've seen this guy somewhere before
Hey! Stop there
What's your name? - Sivakumar
From where? - K.K Nagar
Where in K.K Nagar? - Ganapathy street
What's going on there?
- Nothing to worry - Why did you slap me?
There is no Ganapathy street in K.K nagar
I'm also from K.K Nagar How dare you lie to me?
I did not lie
If you want you can ch...check
Muthu, didn't I have my doubts about a guy in Coonoor?
Doesn't he resemble him?
You've mistaken me for someone else, bro
How dare you walk away when I'm questioning you?
Let go of my shirt
Let go of my shirt, please
Hey! He has come to kill me, Kill him
- Stop - Catch him
Don't let him escape Follow him
He's entering our area - He has run into V.O.C Nagar
Our area, he can't dream of escaping
I'll get him before you in half an hour
Amudha, don't be stubborn
Tell me
- Where are you? - At home
Bro, there's a guy running into Balaji street, grab him
Our street? - Catch him
Amudha, why are you here? Why are they chasing you?
They killed Sethu
After you made Sethu board the bus, police caught him
They handed him over to Ravi
Bharani, we've kept him barely alive for you to come and finish him off
I'm coming, bro
He has to be killed in front of that girl
- Where is Amudha? - In Trichy
Go bring her here
Please let him go
Bharani, please Let him go Don't hurt him, Bharani
Bharani, I beg you isten to me, please
- Leave him, don't hurt - Kill, man!
He was tortured right in front of my eyes and then killed
Brother! They are here
Siva! Bharani has come Quick...let's go
They are coming to get us Get up, Let's go away
Quickly
You go away from here Go
They are here
Siva...!- Let's go
Stop
Nandu, call the commissioner
Hey! Who are you, man? How are we connected?
If I tell you who I am I have to kill you
Think back on the number of people you've killed in your lifetime
Let me represent them to take your life in return
I am leaving you alive here
So that you can watch yourself die
I won't spare you when I get out of here
Someone...save me please!
Someone...save me please!
Hello, police station
'Headlines today'
'Deceased body of Simakkal Ravi, business man missing for past 20 days...'
'...has been found 15 kms from Nagamala in a well in decomposed state'
'An anonymous caller informed the police'
'Police retrieved the body with the help of the fire department'
'Body has been sent for postmortem to Madurai'
Didn't you borrow 300000 from your friend?
No, I did not - Who gave you so much money?
I'll explain it to my father
Father,1 minute - What?- Come inside
I took Rs 300000 for the wedding from this
The rest of it is here
What's this secret between father and son, you're keeping me in the dark?!
It is natural for father and son to share secrets...I'm leaving
Son, come here - Don't cry, baby
What is it, father?
- What is happening? - Even I don't know
Why are you letting the baby cry?
What secret are you both whispering?
It is natural for father and son to share secrets...let me carry him
My prince! Don't cry
We should be very happy from now on

5 Technology Trends that Will Help You Land a Job - Duration: 2:53.
I'm Dawn Xiang and I'm a technology
consultant at Deloitte
i'm Sherilyn Notte and i'm a manager at Deloitte Digital
Internet of Things is the
idea that all technological devices can
be connected to the Internet and using
it in at the share and receive data
between each other I see the internet of
things all the time my job in the
pharmaceutical industry companies are
now able to take wearable device data
and get real-time information about
their patients physiological responses
machine learning is the ability for
computers now to analyze data and make
decisions almost based on data and
patterns
a lot of social media platforms
like Facebook and Twitter are using
machine learning today one example is
that Facebook often puts posts and
comments at the top of your newsfeed
based on your past interactions
virtual reality is the
computer-generated simulation of a 3d
image or environment that you can
interact with in a seemingly real or
physical way.
one example of virtual
reality is the idea that we can help
patients that are more homebound and
confined to their spaces and allow them
to experience other environments without
having to physically transport them there
one example is being able to
simulate a room and place furniture in
it so you can know before you buy it how
it's going to look
so touch commerce is the combination of
touchscreen technology and the one-click
shopping experience touch commerce
allows you to purchase something with
just a single click so the Amazon dash
button is an example of this touch
commerce is really going to improve
the user experience from simplifying
the user login process to decreasing the
number of clicks or touches it takes to
get an item from the online shopping
cart into an order that's confirmed on
its way and being delivered improving
overall user satisfaction
cognitive technology are things like natural
language processing that allows you to
automate certain functions that used to
meet a lot of people to do
initially we expect it to impact the software
industry the most with ninety-five
percent of software companies adopting
cognitive technologies by 2020 so an
example of this might be in a call
center where someone calls in and that
now a computer can recognize what they
need to call about and direct their call
based on that
regardless of which industry choose to go in
staying up to date on your technology trends will help
you become a more competitive candidates
my advice would be to get up to speed on
all kinds of technology trends because
they really apply across the board

-------------------------------------------
In Turkey 7/7 - The land of God and Gucci - Duration: 45:08.
The Middle East is in turmoil, Europe closes its shutters...
...and the country in between looks both ways..
We think we know this country well, but it's changing rapidly.
in Turkey
the land of God and Gucci
Don't accelerate too much.
Now slowly turn the wheel.
Good job. Keep going.
Is this her first lesson? - Yes, it is.
How is it going? - Very well.
Check if the road is clear, then slowly turn left.
Well done.
Once I get my driving licence, I'm going to buy a car.
Why do you want one?
So I don't have to depend on others and drive my own kids around.
So that I can go wherever I want.
Are many women in Konya taking driving lessons?
Yes, over the past six months...
...we've seen more women taking driving lessons.
A bit further, and then back. Then you can stop.
The demand among women has hugely increased.
The ability to drive gives them the freedom to go out on their own.
It makes them feel free and less dependent on their husbands.
They're free to go wherever they want.
Go down a gear.
You're a quick learner.
I wasn't sure what to expect of Konya.
I read it was the most conservative, most religious city in Turkey...
...at the heart of Anatolia.
So yes, I was expecting lots of mosques and headscarves.
But a women's driving school?
This is one of the most sacred places in Turkey.
The tomb of Mevlana lies here...
....an important Islamic scholar, a religious philosopher.
A very important figure for conservative religious Turks.
It's a sort of place of pilgrimage.
His philosophy is all about how to live and how to live modestly.
This philosophy is important to modern Turkey.
Amen.
What are you praying for?
I'm praying for a better soul, for good fortune, for myself...
...my children, everyone in the world. That's what I'm praying for.
The people buried here had very pure souls.
They cared for others.
Is this an important place for you? - Absolutely.
Our Mevlana had a beautiful philosophy for everyone on earth.
Regardless of who you are, what you believe in, the colour of your skin.
We are all human, we are all good.
That's what he taught, and I really believe in it.
Are you a modern Turk? - Yes, I am.
What does that mean in your opinion? - I keep up with the times.
You should live in the present.
When times change, go with the flow.
So modern Turks pray too? - Of course. I pray too.
God is important to me.
I have a special connection with God and Islam.
This is what I'm trying to understand.
Conservatism and modern life, can they coexist in this country?
Is there such a thing as this 'modern Islam' I keep hearing about?
Welcome, children.
How are you? - Fine.
What school do you go to? - The Altin Cocuk school.
Welcome, everyone.
You are about to visit the tomb of the holy Mevlana.
I'm one of Mevlana's grandchildren. It's nice to meet you.
Bye, then.
Are you related to Mevlana? - Yes, I'm one of his descendants.
Who was Mevlana? - My great-great-great grandfather.
But in general: He was a philosopher.
Someone who taught people...
...how to lead a better life here on earth.
I believe his teachings made him a very important figure.
He taught people to stay contemporary, adapt to new developments.
That is something both the Quran and Mevlana teach.
Here, take these.
When we interpret Islam correctly and practice it the correct way...
...and teach it properly...
...you'll find that Islam is in fact ahead of what we call modern life.
Islam is far more modern.
But these days Islam is often misinterpreted...
...which is leading to problems.
One example is that you must not criticize those who wear a headscarf...
...or those who don't.
People should try to understand each other.
The biggest problem people have now is that they are always searching.
They're searching for happiness, for peace of mind.
This is what Mevlana would say to these people:
You, friend, who are on your way, search as hard as you can...
...but don't search elsewhere, search within yourself.
Everything is within us. In our thoughts and our heart.
Only when we find it, will we find peace.
Now people have their iPhones, iPods, iMacs, and so on.
Is that a bad thing? - No, I have them myself.
I am grateful for them.
I am convinced that people who help make our lives so much easier...
...will be rewarded by God.
They will go to heaven for what they have done for us.
Of course we should take advantage of these things.
Don't confuse those two things, that's what I'm trying to say.
Why would you keep riding a camel when cars have been invented?
That would be ridiculous.
Our prophet Muhammed was modern for his time too.
While the Netherlands has become more secular over the past few decades...
...Turkey seems to be becoming increasingly religious.
The AKP has been in power for nine years in a row.
This party is primarily supported by religious Muslims.
Religious Turks are gaining territory not only in politics...
...but they are also expelling the old secular elite economically.
The secret of their success lies here, in the conservative heartland.
In the industrial areas of cities like Konya.
A mosque. - That's right.
There are a lot of mosques here. - You bet.
In Turkey it's quite common to see a mosque in an industrial area.
But here in Konya, at the heart of Turkey, of Anatolia...
...you see huge mosques like this on every single street.
Why are you filming?
Is that your mosque? - Yes, it is.
Why build a mosque here?
The people who work in this industrial area need somewhere to pray.
There are a lot of factories here, and they're building more over there.
The workers will be able to come and pray here.
There are so many mosques in Konya. - Yes, because many Muslims live here.
We are building a mosque here to receive Allah's blessing.
We are doing the actual building...
...but many other Muslims are helping to make it possible.
One man offers to buy cement, the next one buys the iron.
Later, in the afterlife...
...they will be rewarded for that.
After their passing, they will reap the rewards in the afterlife.
A Muslim's help is never forgotten. It is recorded.
Mosques are mushrooming here as fast as the factories.
As if they're competing with one another.
Money and God are perfectly compatible here.
Islam teaches people to work and learn.
Islam's first lesson is: Read! People should study and work.
We get paid for our work.
We don't spend that money frivolously.
We invest it in our company.
Islam forbids waste.
Owning more than you need...
...that's what Islam forbids. That is our norm.
By working harder, we can provide even more work for others...
...feed more families, and have even more people pray for us.
That's our objective.
Everything we earn, we invest in the company.
Before the economic crisis we had 210 employees, now we have 140.
We would like to get that number back up to 210 or even 250.
We're working hard to achieve that.
The West was better off economically than the rest of the world for so long...
...due to our Calvinist mentality, according to sociologist and economists.
Hand on the Bible, pray a lot and work hard.
But here in Turkey, this success formula works just as well for Muslims.
Only here it is: Hand on the Quran, pray a lot and work hard.
That's why they call this the success of the Islamic Calvinists.
God offers redemption. Islam offers redemption.
Those who seek refuge in God find salvation, not those who flee from it.
Those who flee from God, flee from themselves, humanity, and life.
The longer I live here...
...the more I am starting to see praying as a form of meditation.
A way to take a break five times a day from the stress of daily life.
I understand this need.
And yet I feel like an imposter here in the mosque.
I'm standing outside while inside people are bowing down to something...
...that is greater, that is invisible.
I come from a world of individualism.
In the mosque, the individual is inferior to the group.
Perhaps that's why I feel ill at ease.
I am not being excluded. I am excluding myself.
Good evening.
Konya has been changing rapidly since 2000.
We now have universities. - And students.
Since then Konya has come out of its shell.
It's a beautiful town. The city of Mevlana.
What does Mevlana mean to you? - Mevlana...
Mehmet, you answer that. - Do you need help?
He needs your help. He doesn't know who Mevlana is.
But he is our boss. - He doesn't know.
He's our staff manager. - Tell him something about Mevlana.
What should I tell him about Mevlana?
Who was Mevlana? What does he represent?
To us, Mevlana was the greatest scholar of all time.
He was originally from Iran.
From Iran? I thought Afghanistan? - No, from Iran.
I've lived here for twelve years, but I didn't know that.
He's drinking alcohol. - We all drink.
You too? - Yes.
But do you go to the mosque as well? - That has nothing to do with alcohol.
I don't understand. - They're two different things.
There's a time to pray and a time to drink. We all drink.
So you can drink before going to the mosque?
Sure, that's fine.
Really? It's not a problem? - No.
I'm not going to lie about it. I drink and I go to the mosque.
On holidays too. But during Ramadan, I fast and I don't drink alcohol.
During Ramadan I don't drink alcohol for a month.
That's when I fast. I am a Muslim, after all.
Women come here too. They feel completely at ease.
Why not? I always come here with my wife on our anniversary.
With your wife? - Yes, we always celebrate it here.
Does your wife wear a headscarf? - Yes, she does.
And yet she comes here? - Why not? She's a person too.
She comes here too, just ask my boss.
But they serve alcohol here. - A time and a place for everything.
Don't you go to church?
You do. And you drink alcohol. What's the difference?
You have a church, we have a mosque. What's the difference?
You believe in the Bible, we in the Quran. We all believe in something.
You look different. How are you? - Fine, how are you?
What a great performance. - Thank you very much.
It's like this every day. - Every day?
But if you come later, it's even busier. And the crowd goes wild.
Club Ella is the best night club in Konya.
Goes wild? Are there no boundaries? - Not if you're having fun.
Are you religious? - Yes, absolutely.
How does that work?
Religion and work are separate. As long as you believe with your heart.
There is only one God, we all believe that.
Other than that, it's a private matter.
I don't think my work stands in the way of my relationship with God.
My love for Him is genuine. - Do you go to a mosque too?
Prayers and flaws are kept secret by Muslims.
So I don't want to talk about that. - OK.
It's a private matter. - Exactly.
What are you going to do now?
I'm going to listen to the next act and then I'm going home.
Is there another act? - Yes.
This late? - Until four. We like to party in Konya.
Four o'clock? - Yes.
It was a pleasure. - Thank you.
Goodbye. - Bye.
Kipa Shopping Mall
Our English course is full. You could join the next one.
I'll put you on the list and we'll text you when there is space.
And then you can enroll.
Your violin lesson is Saturday at two o'clock.
For the drama course we'll need copies of your ID and student card.
Is that all clear?
I was determined to offer Latin dance and ballet classes...
...just because people had all these preconceived ideas...
... about why they wouldn't do well here. Lots of people told me that.
But I took no notice. I knew there would be a demand.
We've just started Latin dance and ballet and they're both popular.
If you'd come a few hours earlier, you'd have seen how busy it was.
Are you interested in taking a dance course?
No, thanks.
Why not? - We're just not interested.
It's no use to us anyway because we never dance.
We're here for the photography course and the speed reading course.
Photography. - We'd like to learn to take good photos.
We want to develop ourselves in various areas. That's why we're here.
What education do you have? - I studied Arabic.
Arabic? - Yes.
Did you go to university too? - I graduated in Business Studies.
Economics? And you got a degree? - Yes, I did.
What do you do now? - I stay at home.
Home? - Yes, so does she.
We have a headscarf issue, although things have improved.
That's why I dropped out. I couldn't finish my studies.
I was training to become a biology teacher.
But because of my headscarf I wasn't allowed to follow two subjects.
Only recently have things improved with regards to headscarves.
It's getting better. - So they're not allowed in Turkey?
You can't go to university wearing one.
In the Netherlands you can. - It's different here in Turkey.
What is modern Islam according to you?
I don't think there is such a thing as a 'modern Islam'.
Islam is Islam.
Are you a Muslim? - Of course.
A modern Muslim?
That's different. Am I a modern Muslim?
Maybe in your opinion, and maybe our lifestyle is different.
We're all Muslims who believe in God, but we each make out own choices.
Maybe you have to wear a headscarf, but it's my choice.
Unfortunately all courses are full.
You're on the waiting list for step aerobics. You're first on the list.
But you could join a cake baking workshop.
No, thanks.
When the West got wealthier, people started going to shopping malls...
...and stopped going to church.
But in the Turkish consumer society people aren't necessarily...
...becoming less religious. On the contrary.
Consumerism and globalization seem to have increased the desire...
...to discover who we are and go back to basics.
And for Turks, that's being a Muslim.
Mevlana's followers try to escape from this modern life sometimes.
Mevlana taught them religion is not something you impose on anyone.
Faith lies within.
As soon as they put on the same habits that were worn centuries ago...
...it's as if they disappear into the past.
Derwish Dance is not just about the turning.
It's a prayer service too.
You think of God. You're always with Him of course, but sometimes you need it.
But what do you think of? - What I think of?
I can't put it into words...
...but I feel my soul becoming peaceful, fulfilled.
It's hard to explain.
You realise He is in everything.
When you're turning around, everything becomes hazy.
You become aware that you are a part of God.
It's hard to explain to people from the West, because they think differently.
In the West they approach things rationally.
In the East it's about the story. We're more into mysticism.
We need to synthesize the rationality of the West...
...with the mysticism of the East.
If we can manage that...
...this could become a prosperous, harmonious society.
We won't make the same mistakes the West did.
At least I don't expect so.
Our people will become wealthier and lead prosperous lives...
...but they won't turn their backs on religion. At least I hope not.
These dancers might be able to close their eyes to modern life sometimes.
But times are changing.
A middle class of hard-working religious Muslims..
...isn't exclusive to the expanding city of Kolya.
In tourist resorts like Antalya people are also beginning to seek entertainment...
...in expensive five-star hotels.
Secular Turks with Western lifestyles used to have all the money.
Strict religious life was for the poor farmers.
The Turks with no money.
Good evening, how are you? - Welcome. Join us.
Things used to be very different.
I'm from a nearby village in the Antalya area.
Weddings are very different over there.
The food is prepared by the whole village.
Not like this at all. - Completely different.
This is a lot more comfortable, modern and it's classier.
What is modern Islam to you?
Being modern means you can live more comfortably.
Lead a more pleasant life.
And modern also means freedom.
In the old days, you couldn't do certain things.
Now I can get into the car and go to a wedding in the evening by myself.
It's nice to have your own car...
...and be able to go to a nice party if you feel like it.
What do you think? - What does being modern mean?
Being modern. - Modern?
It's uniting the old with the new without giving up your culture.
Is this wedding modern or traditional?
This is a continuation of the old mixed with the new.
The guests here are all well-educated...
...and speak at least one foreign language. So they are modern.
But the way they are dressed is true to our tradition, culture and religion.
You can live according to Islam and still keep up with the times.
People who do that, are modern.
Are you a modern woman? - Yes.
How so? - I feel very modern.
Even if you wear Islamic clothing, you can be modern.
We can believe and preserve our culture.
We're true to Islam, but we adapt to modern times.
Our lifestyle doesn't clash with our religion in any way.
How do you view modern Islam?
We keep up with the times and yet stay faithful to our religion.
Islam isn't backward. It's perfectly compatible with modern times.
The Quran is timeless.
Islam doesn't force you to do anything. It allows you to be free.
When I ask people what 'modern Islam' is...
...they tell me: What do you mean? There's no such thing.
Islam is Islam.
They're right. It's like : Modern Christianity.
As if religion and being modern are opposite poles.
It's like saying you can't be religious and take part in modern life.
Can I say something?
This type of wedding always goes with hemp evening for women.
Unveiled and only for women.
It's a lovely party. Everyone dresses casually, with a cleavage.
We do our hair, put on makeup, look fabulous...
...and go and dance.
But men can't attend. It's women only.
That's a wonderful example of modern Islam.
Thanks very much. Goodbye. - You're welcome. Bye.
If you don't watch out, you'll become a film star.
This is also Turkey.
People ask me all the time: Is this country East or West?
Europe or Asia?
I think the answer to that question depends on where you come from.
If you're from the Middle East and see these images on the beach, you think:
This is Europe. This is where the free West begins.
But if you're from the Netherlands or another European country...
...you might think: This is where the Islamic world begins.
This is the East.
The answer to the question: What is Turkey?...
...depends on what you're looking at and who you are.
Isn't Turkey becoming more religious?
Why are you so keen to hear that Antalya is becoming more Islamic?
Antalya was always Islamic. - Of course.
Religion is a private matter, between yourself and God. We all believe.
Me too, even if I don't wear a headscarf. That's not what it's about.
Religion is not the problem, but it's misused in politics.
It's up to you what you believe in.
I'm a Muslim myself, but if he is a Christian, that's his business.
This is an Islamic country, but church and state are separate.
Don't think you can intervene here like you do in Iran, Iraq and Libya.
We might be some having some issues in our country...
...but we are and will remain united.
What should Turkey do to become modern, in your opinion?
Should we legalise drugs, gay marriages, and so on?
Do you think that's modern?
The fact that we tolerate nude tourists proves how modern we are.
We're not the ones shutting down mosques, like you do in Europe.
Yes, Europe is wonderful.
Another thing: I'm not interested in being an EU member. Turkey is.
That blind rage you evoke just by having the nerve to ask...
...if Turkey is becoming more religious.
They're furious because I, a foreigner, dare to suggest...
...Turkey is becoming more religious...
...when Turkey is so proud of is its secular nature.
This Turkey that was built by Mustafa Kemal Atatürk.
The Turkish state protects Turkey's secular nature.
The state not only decides what you can and cannot say in a mosque...
...but also what you can and cannot wear in public places like schools.
Wearing a headscarf is still forbidden for teachers in this country.
Just missed it.
You can serve. You serve, Selen.
Good afternoon. You can sit down.
Our subject is worship. Turn to page 38.
What is worship, Sinan? Get up.
You can worship with your body or with goods.
Anyone can read something out of a book. What about you?
God has given us so many possessions and other things.
We should show Him our gratitude. - Well said.
I always wear a headscarf when I'm not working.
But I have lots of friends like Güniz whom I have lots of fun with.
But how do you talk about religion?
We have different views. - But you believe in God too.
I'm religious, I just don't want to cover my head.
I like to keep my hair free. Sometimes I call Gülderen...
...and ask her to dry and style my hair, and she does.
She comes to me wearing a scarf...
...and when she takes it off, it looks just like it does now.
She'd never ask me to wear a scarf, because she knows I don't want to.
When I think of Gülderen, I think of her as a person. Religion doesn't come into it.
I pray all the time. - Every day?
All the time, that's my religion.
But I refuse to wear a headscarf. I am against having to cover myself.
So are you against me too?
I'm against it, but everyone should decide for themselves.
In a democracy, human rights apply to everyone.
Just like democrats and republicans I allow her total freedom.
If she wants to wear a headscarf, it's her prerogative.
I don't feel right like this.
I feel better wearing a headscarf. More like myself.
Then I'm Gülderen. - But you're prettier like this.
Of course I'm the same Gülderen, scarf or no scarf.
Yet if the headscarf makes me feel better, that's what I should wear.
You should live the way that feels right for you.
Did you park at the back? - Yes, further down.
My car is nearby.
Why don't I just give you a lift?
Shall we look in here?
Are these Dolce & Gabbana?
With a scarf, I prefer one without a rim. - It does look classier.
It really suits you.
I catch myself having preconceived thoughts.
Without her headscarf, I think of Gülderen as a lovely, cheerful woman.
Bubbly, open to discussion, modern.
Yet once she puts on her headscarf back on outside school...
...all I see is a woman wearing a headscarf.
She's the same woman. Just as bubbly. just as open, just as modern.
She hasn't changed. My perception of her has changed.
The difference between traditional and modern Turks is in my head.
What is 'modern Islam' to you?
Like me, Gülderen.
Modern Islam? The way people experience their religion...
...the way they dress, everything they do...
...Islam doesn't really interfere with any of that.
Islam is essentially about your personal relationship with God.
That's modern Islam, to me. It's Güniz and me.
It doesn't matter to me how she dresses, what she does and what she believes in.
The new generation welcomes spring. This is their future.
They will decide how modern life and tradition can coexist...
...in this land of God and Gucci.
This is their Turkey.
