Four years ago, two sparrows came in my parents' home and put their eggs somewhere on their balcony and gave birth to two beautiful birds. Then some months later I got married and went to my home. My mother and grandmother said that your luck was brought to you by those sparrows. It's a nice legend in our culture which says if any animal gives birth to his child in your house, then God will send you prosperity. A very nice story which has some roots in the human creature times.
This year again those sparrows came to their house and gave birth to their child, but although I don't believe in this myth, I know something good is happening.
Sometimes living in this world of fantasy is very interesting!!!

Like before
After the announcement of
First I think current president of
Second, I think existence of women in those public places like football stadiums needs a certain culture improvement which prevents any offensive acts by itself. And reaching to that certain point which allows everyone to sit and watch their favorite team plays, needs a long way.

This is a phone. No need of describing it, one of it's benefit is the ability of talking to someone without looking at her/his eyes. It makes you easy to tell lie or to hide your face. It's somehow making the relation kind of artificial not real.
Anyhow it's existance is better than reverse ;)

Chernobyl
Today I was reading about Chernobyl's nuclear explosion in April 1986, almost 20 years ago. I'm not very old but I can remember those days very clearly which Soviet regime asked poor villagers to emigrate and leave all their possessions there. That accident was a complete scandle for the government and almost they ruined 30 km *2 of planet land. Nobody is permitted to enter that area for an unlimited period and it's going to become like Nowhere.
Making vehicles for villagers to leave the land last 36 hours, and those ones who left there not immediately, are suffering from the effects of radioactive radiations.
Having the nuclear weapons is a sine qua non for making peace in a country but it's not a per se adequate.

Summer in Iran
In the Pahlavi's era, when my grand pa was a young successful businessman in Mashhad, Reza Khan; king of Pahlavi; ordered that all women should take off their scarves and they should put on hats in order of protecting their heads against sun. at that time in Mashhad which is of the most religious cities of Iran, the mayor ordered all the businessmen to take participate in a party which was done for this case and they should bring their wives, and of course they shouldn't put on Hejab(one of the Islamic orders). Atlas ,after lots of discussions my grandfather take a worker's daughter to that party as his wife ,because he never wants to show his wife in public without Hejab.
100 years ago in Iran, a man ordered women to wear cloths as he wished and this obligation was very hard to be accepted and results into those conflicts which we all have read about them in history. But now after passing all these years again the history is repeating but in another type. This time the governors at the start of summer have threatened women that if they wear those so-called unsuitable cloths they will put them in prison. I don't want to mention if those cloths are good or bad, but I think it's exactly another version of Reza Khan's order which is repeating.

SS Championship
What to say today?
Yesterday Esteghlal (one of the football teams of professional league of Iran) won the 5th cup, and of course because I'm one of his fans, it was a good day. League of Iran will start in August and till then the players will prepare to play in the world cup matches.
Because this season was before the start of Germany 2006 match, most of the players did their best to be elected in the national team. And the federation of Iran football held recent plays very on time and scheduled. It's a noticeable incident in our football, because behind all wins there should be cute managements.
Goal keeper of Esteghlal was unimaginable. He was one of the bests and I hope he plays in Germany so far.
After the championship of Esteghlal, the whole team members started praying God in the middle of the soccer land. It proofs that if you want to be successful in Iran, you should never forget to act as a holy man in all your life. (Don't take it seriously, just ACT.)

Reversed Verbs
I'm getting used to a habit which is not good all the times. It's nothing except using reversed verbs in my daily communications. For instance if I want to say someone her new dress is nice, instead of saying how nice it is , I'll say it's not suitable for you. It's just a habit and I'm trying to use it only with my close friends. I think now, most of them knows that if I'm saying how fat you are I'm just joking to make a sense of closeness.
But I shouldn't forget that everyone are not like my friends. Yesterday when I told someone my reversed verb, she just frowned and turned her back. Of course it wasn't important for me at all but it just reminds me that I should watch my language more than before when I'm with strangers.
Do you get what I mean by reversed verbs?

Are we this much rich?
Iran government has ratified a rule to help to Hemas, governors of new Palestine country, some money about 50000000$. This amount is two times more than that money which USA is paying to advertise against Iran.
Hearing this news will be more interesting when you hear that the damages about Dorood earthquake are just growing because those poor people didn't have enough money to harden their buildings, and even now, they don't get enough money to rebuild their houses. Rich people of Iran are helping involuntarily to Palestine and then… (Like always I don't have anything to say except a Sigh!!!)

This is the picture of Atossa, daughter of great Cyrus ,whose mother was Mandana. Because at the time of Achaemenid Empire most of the marriages were for a cause, at first Atossa married Cambysess 2 and then Smerdis and then she became the wife of Darius 1. Their son was Xerxes who was one of the main kings of Achaemenid and was winner in Iran-Rom fights.
She is one of the instances of successful woman in Iran, not only because of her marriages but because of her great acts she did in Iran history. At those times were Arabs kill their daughters because of their sex, king of Iran consults with her wife before taking decisions.

Moments
How fast the first 26 days of New Year are passed, like a blink of an eye… Passing time is always a confusing matter. Some moments last as a year for you; at that moment you can even take a travel to your favorite places or live with your loves a life time. But in some cases the time is passing and you never understand its speed. You are losing your age because you are doing just your routine works everyday. You wake up, go to work, come back, do something, sleep and again and again this cycle is repeating. I think it's the reason of becoming old without understanding how all these years have been passed.
Tomorrow is the birthday of prophet Mohammad (PBUH) in Shiah calendar, congratulations to those who take it as an Eid.

Amendment
I read some where that an optimistic person is someone who doesn't know any thing. If you are living in Iran and you are facing to this much bad news and are trying to continue your way, then you will have two ways: you can close your eyes and don't see anything; in this case after a while you will be very optimistic. Or no, you are seeing everything and just suffering. I suggest you even if you fall into the second category again close your eyes and try to ignore everything.
I feel paying much attention to nuclear conflicts is one of them. So it's better not to know how uranium is written than knowing how it's enriched.

A Successful Mind
This is a story of a boy who is living in E-generation:
He is younger than us, maybe about 20 ,but he wants to go gym with his friends, eat in top restaurants ,travel to nice resorts , buy new models of ipod and mobile phones… and lots of other wishes most of the youth dream about. But he also had the main problem: he didn't have any money for his dreams.
He thought and though and at last decide a noble idea. He went to his computer and designed a webpage with one million pixels on it and worth each pixel 1$. He advertises it between his friends and then one of them bought the first 400 pixels. It means that he had his first 400$. He spends this money for more advertisements and then BOOM!!! Lots of requests for buying his pixels were done. He says at that time money was pouring on his head like rain and it was increasing by itself.
He sold and sold the pixels until just 1000 pixels were left, he put on them on eBay and sold the last ones for 38000$.
Now lots of people in the world are making similar sites and maybe they are successful in their way but the first one who has the new idea is the winner.

Uranuim Enrichment
Last night people of Iran were presented the ability of their scientist of enriching uranium; news which I never believe in that scale they were telling us.
In the procedure of making an atomic bomb, enriching uranium is one of the vital steps. As far as I know, when uranium is found in a land, scientist should reform it from a mine material to a solid and pure one which is called yellowcake. The technology of making this substance is very secret and the countries that have it prefer to sell their own-made yellowcakes to the others who want use nuclear powers.
After making this material, they should convert it to gas by heating it about 64c and after that they lead this gas over centrifuges again and again until its isotopes separates and uranium is enriched.
Low-level enriched uranium can be used as fuel and highly-level enriched ones can be used in nuclear weapons.
Iran government announced that up to now they have made 63 centrifuges and they are going to extend this number to 2500 in 6 months.
I think they want to make an international belief that the entire world should fear of them because they can for example ruin whole Israel whenever they feel that their cruelty is intolerable or etc.
This show off is a dangerous one which ends into spreading more poverty and death. I'm really worried about future. Sigh….

Margoon waterfall in Shiraz. This place is one of the most beautiful places I've ever met. A great landscape scenery which shows the art of nature. This waterfall is near Shiraz, about 120km away, and has a height of about 150 meters. The cold weather beside Margoon really refreshes your minds :D

A Nurse
Last night I was watching Iran News. They were showing a woman who were applauded for her great act during Bam earthquake. At first, I thought Ahhhh; again one of those ones who are just given gifts because they are the family of somebody. But after I heard her conversation I admitted that I was wrong.
She said at the time of earthquake which was about 5AM, she was working in the hospital as the head of nurses. She has a 7 year old daughter which was hearing the voices of earth before the main disaster. She phoned her and said after the work hours finishes, she will immediately come home.
When the earthquake started, she was looking after a pregnant woman. Exactly at that time she gave birth to her child and that nurse helped him between the ruins. Imagine the situation. It must be very tough. Then about at 10 o'clock she became free and run home to see her daughter. But she wasn't able even to find the home. She lost her daughter and 7 more members of her family.
I know after each natural incident there are lots of these stories. But hearing them at any time is difficult.

Just a highway?
When we were going to Shiraz, we passed Isfahan. There is a very good highway between Qom-Isfahan. This highway is almost the best one in Iran and makes the way to Isfahan, a cultural city in Iran, very easier. At first glance everybody think the reason of making this highway is cities of Isfahan and Shiraz , but surprisingly when you know that Natanz; the nuclear power site of Iran; is located in this route, you will find some more reasons of making this highway. An airplane can take off and get down on this way very easily. It's a fact that you can't visit Natanz as easy as other cities of Iran. So Iran is really doing something? If it's peaceful why they don't show it in public?
In this week Mohammad ElBaradei, the director manager of International Atomic Agency, will come Iran with his inspectors to visit Natanz and other sites. Iran just have 30 days left to make an international confidence otherwise we will see all the disasters we feared about. let's still be hopeful about miracles.

Military Service
Do I walk like a penguin?...
We are living in Iran. In our country going to military service is mandatory for men (Thank God that at this phase they again have forgotten the existence of women.). These two years could be mentioned in two different ways.
From one point of view it could be 2 years full of funny and good memories for these young soldiers who are always making joke from the hard and tight attitudes of their leaders and camps.
But from another point of view it could be a class of learning bad habits or even being addicted to whatever which makes hardness of being away of the family easier.
For this last reason most of the families prefer to find a way to not let their spoiled boys go there and today my youngest brother found the way :D

ordering like a teacher :O
Please do whatever you like, go where ever you wish, talk whatever you think, but just DON'T LIE.
When I see someone who is acting different when I'm with her and when I'm not , I don't find any reason to continue acting her as pure as before and this contrast makes the relations colder.
DON'T LIE to me.

Time changing
Working after a long holiday is very hard…
This year after about 20 years the local time in Iran didn't change. In the entire world, for power saving causes at the start of spring, they lose 1 hour and then for the second 6 months they get it. But we shouldn't forget that we are living in Iran and we should always notice to the religious parties which want always saying their noon prayer at 12. They change 60milion people habits to say their prayers at the time of Prophet Mohammad.
I'm still nagging about the matters don't relate to me :o

About holiday
OK. This time really all the vacations are done. From today, people start working. I had lots of sayings:
One of the bad memories of my holiday time was the news of earthquake in Dorood. I think you remember the name. I talked about this city when I was writing about my Gahar-Lake trip. One of my best friends at that time was there and up to the moment I heard his voice I was completely worried.
Beside it, all other moments were good. Even first 4 days which I caught cold and weren't able to speak didn't make me sit home.
I saw something strange about Shiraz too. About 12 years ago I went to Shiraz and met Pasargadae; The great Cyrus tomb; at that time there was a picture beside the statue which was describing the place and it's history and was saying that this great man was that one which has been mentioned in Holy Quran for his good jobs. This sentence was very honorable for me. It shows that even Arabs had confessed to Iranian power on ruling countries but this time when I was there I saw that the picture was removed and something cheap was written there. It totally shows that Arabic minds who are ruling Iran don't like to make ancient prides alive any more.
I'll showing you the most famous picture of the Great Cyrus Rules which is saying that:" I'm Cyrus, The king of Hakhamaneshi, The one who made Iran powerful, The one who made Iran rich…"
