After 5 months of NATO's bombing of military personnel and civilians in Libya, the Libyan government has today struck back as promised by detonating a sizable bomb in Oslo, Norway, between the Oil Ministry and a government building housing the prime minister, presumably regarded as a command and control centre.

A stingy

A stingy person.

 

He is a stingy person.  His mind is set only on things that involves some  money.  He owns a house, a land and a lot of  money.......and still invests: another dwelling, and certainly not near to sea, rather a piece of land, but near to village, where you can build something...


And a vacation? Yeah! In spite of being preoccupied with accumulating money, he thinks of going into a vacation......perhaps to Polynesia.....or to Mondragoni!!!

And the best thing his acute mind chooses it

Is " HAMLET " inside everyone?

More studies and interpretations have been written about  " Hamlet " than about any other work of literature..Why..?

I think because some from everyone's nature has been touched in Hamlet.We can all find something of ourselves in this character.The conflict and the mixture of feeling ,it is an exact knowledge of human nature:  misunderstood by others, the hesitation, the lonliness inside ,the imagination ,..love ...hate..

all the feelings concerning people ingeneral .

It's a knowledge of our own ps

Time flies! It's already been five months since I arrived here in Canada in February, and I'm going back to China in two weeks.

I really enjoyed my stay here, and so impressed by the friendly people, gorgeous sights, and the way they li

Hello my dear EC friends,

Here in EC we are posting our voice from audioboo.fm or vocaroo.com

As I find posting our voice from vocaroo.com is easier than audioboo.fm but voice quality is very-very poor in vocaroo. I have tried to hear others voice from vacaroo but most of the times I can not hear voice clearly, sometimes there are many background noise and some times can not hear at all. In "Audio Speaking Group" I can not hear voice from most of the members, I don't know, it's my side problem or

SILENCE SILENCE SILENCE..

why the heck should we remain silent..

why should we compromise

why should we sacrifice

Silence never brings anything..it cannot stop anything

Why should we understand

Why should we tolerate

Silence is just hiding from the reality.. putting your head in the sand

Why do we have boundaries

Why do we have differences

We are all the same human beings then why you and I discriminate

Why should we be bounded by our so called values and traditions

We have our right to speak..but it is us

I've found what i've looked for

For a long time i had a complex in using my English skills, though i've learned English language for many years (5 or even 6). I've constantly reminded myself that learning a foreign language can spread lifelong. And so all my knowledges were only on paper. But later i've succeeded in finding some foreign pupils, small kids, and i came across the fact that when working with children you need to make your lesson interesting and fun. So, a had to speak English for an hour long almost without stopp
