Today is the opening day of the 27th Fajr Film Festival, Tehran, Iran.

Some of my friends stood many hours in the queue to purchase some tickets, some days ago and finally they bought me a series of old famous movies.I went to the cinema and got into the theater. the film title was: Rififi

Formatting the blog entry.

Posted by Hardi on January 29, 2009

I noticed that when you add a picture to your blog entry. You can specify the position of picture, if the text is wraped around of it, and u can create a thumbail, but it miss one important thing. Margins around the image. Well. It's fine not to have it, since the dialog wouldn't fit to screen with too many opinions. But it adds 0 pixels of clearance as default. In my opinion it doesn't look nice when text douches the picture. In both cases when picture is aranged to left and also when it's on r

My Favourite Poem

Posted by Lynne on January 29, 2009

This poem is meaningful to me. I first saw this at the bookstore long time ago... (during my high school days) I had spent some spleepless nights pondering about this poem, but because of some reasons, I couldn't get a copy of it. Though, I was able to give it as a gift to a dear friend, I couldn't have a copy for myself. Then after some years, when it was completely out of my mind, the poem came to me again. This time, it's mine for I received it as a birthday gift from a friend. From there and

Watch films in English with subtitles.

Posted by Olga on January 28, 2009

Watch films in English with subtitles.Watch film on a computer, on laptop, on digital player. Make sure you can pause the film any time. When you hear interesting phrase and you already know where you are going to use it, pause the film, write out a new phrase. In the end you’ll probably have 20-50 new phrases. Do not write out every phrase. Start with film that you’ve already seen in your native language many times

Drawing some character.

Posted by Hardi on January 26, 2009

Beside of watching Animes and doing nothing. I like sometimes to draw something. Usually it's some unknown Anime/cartoon-like caracter. It's easier to draw those, because when some limb happens to gome out too big, or bigger than it's partner, when whole posture looks like it falls down. I can allways say, that it's just a feature, not an error. Although when drawing with computer. Mistakes are easyer to fix. Especially when using vector graphic editor like Inkscape. I still have big trouble to

This week I received an e-mail from Caramail, the service I use tu receive messages. The message says that Caramail is going to cancel all the services it offers to its custemors since it does not gain or made any benifits out of them.

What aches me is that I have some precious e-mails archived there and I couldn't bear the idea of deleting them. Most of them belong to English club: news letters, 7 secr

Happy Lunar New Year!

Posted by Expector Smith on January 23, 2009

The upcoming Chinese lunar new year is called 'year of the ox'. Every lunar year has a different kind of animal to name the year. Only 12 kinds of animals are chosen. In addition to 'ox', the others are 'rat', 'tiger', 'hare', 'dragon', 'snake', 'horse', 'sheep', 'monkey', 'cock', 'dog', 'boar'.Why the ancient Chinese chose these animals as the symbols: a long story. Every animal means differently to the people living in the land thousands of years ago. But, to me, what's important is that they

At the end of your life, how would you most like to be remembered?

Posted by Nafis on January 21, 2009

My father told me that he had left three things for me, his good reputation, books and his cassettes. He gave me a notebook filled with famous poems from reknown poets. He gathered this collection since his childhood. This notebook accompanied him in life hardship and now he gave it to me. My father said he did not have huge money or property to leave, except these cultural products and he emphasized that nothing is important than righteousness and good reputation in life.These are his legacy fo

Posted by Tara Benwell on January 19, 2009

When you look for friends on MyEC or in other social networks do you check out the grey heads? I don't. I usually skip over people who haven't uploaded an avatar. Making friends in a virtual world is already a bit strange. We can't shake hands or look into each other's eyes. However, when I can see your picture I feel like I know you a little better. I can put a face to a name. Even if you choose a setting or a caricature I will look at your MyPage. It will also make it more fun to chat.

Why the Butterfly Died ? A little story every parents should remember .

Posted by Forget-me-Not on January 3, 2009

There’s a story attributed to Henry Miller, the writer, about a little boy in India who went up to a guru who was sitting and looking at something in his hand. The little boy went up and looked at it. He didn’t quite understand what it was, so he asked the guru, "What is that?""It’s a cocoon," answered the guru, "Inside the cocoon is a butterfly. Soon the cocoon is going to split, and the butterfly will come out.""Could I have it?" asked the little boy."Yes," said the guru, "but you must promise
